Potbs swashbuckling is not the same as melee combat - Its more about crew management. i prefer it to the usual hack & slash 1-1 melee encounters in most other mmos which would be hard to implement in any event on a crowded ship deck of players. It does seem simplistic on the surface but after a while there is quite a bit of skill involved like 1. When to call re-inforcements, 2. When to use your pistol. 3. When to parry & call your men to surround the enemy captain. 4. When to run & use a bandage. OK lots of impatient players will think its naff but i personally think its fun - so there you go!
And this has absolutely nothing to do with 90% of the melee missions, a substantial portion of the game and a highly advertised one.
p.s. If you're calling for reinforcements and bandaging yourself in boarding combat you should really learn a bit more about ship combat first...oh, and quit using only cannonballs.

if ypu are looking for a land based melee mission game Potbs is not your game.
i will ignor your ps about calling reinforcements & bandages as it only proves that you are missing some of the key points of swashbuckling.
