  • Firstly, nice thread, good read. Hits home, real hard. I played from the first hour (literally) of the first day (we got the game a little earlier in australia due to time differences and as soon as the servers came up we were on) until about Dece…
  • Have i got the right understanding here that POTBS isn't about leveling but more about buiding ones fleet/treasure up like Sid Miers pirates. Then when u reach a certain point it makes sense to divide the plunder, increasing your reputation as long …
  • dude i think you're definetly right. the only reason i didnt jump on the band wagon with POTBS quicker was because i thought it was an early working title for POTC and so i just ignored it then i read otherwise online and thought "omg.. this lo…
  • i dont think so.  i havn't really heard about anyone complaining about URU live yet?  anyway, these sim type and adventure type MMO's are still semi RPG in a fasion.  Remember RPG means "role playing game" which means you take a ROLE.  So taking the…
  • This game sounds absolutely intriging. i didn't find out about it until reading the news alert in my email. It sounds similar to a really early MMO that a friend of mine played, perhaps as early as 98 but i can't rightly remember.  It was around …
  • yeah the barque was great but i mainly used a sloop and relied on my personal abilty to out sword fight any enemy captain quickly.  I like using the scatter shot to kill enemy troops for a while before boarding. GoT
  • yeah i think it was all taken into account marginally but improved in later versions. So it depends which one you mainly played.  My uncle finished the c64 version at top rank "kings advisor" but i could never reach such heights.  I think it took mu…
  • i used to choose charm because i wanted to get the hottest wife lol. I wonder how close POTBS will be to Sid Miers awesome games.  I started with the c64 version too, i just can't really remember it much i was pretty young like still in primary s…
  • Originally posted by Squal'Zell you are making it sound like it would be like a single player game but in an MMO situation? true i can start seing fleet battles and such the wise. (but pirates dont attack in fleets though) anyhow it looks like a p…
  • Originally posted by Squal'Zell yeh im looking into that game pirates of the burning sea... only thing that kinda makes me look away is the feature that you are the shipwhen at sea. DONT let that make you look away, infact its the best and m…
  • Personally i've had similar battles mate. I wrote a thread (probably on page 3 or 4 by now) a couple of days ago called "games stole my life but WoW gave it back" because i had similar issues.  I quit after waiting for wow for YEARS and then hated i…
  • yeah i've been searching for an aussie guild to join and im guessing that since most of the people on the forums are US at the moment that they just simply weren't online before becaus they were probably all at sleep i just got responses from som…
  • I played on AMIGA500 first, then AMIGA CD32 (pirates GOLD) the first ever CD based console, then played the most recent pirates release for PC.  LOVE THEM ALL TO DEATH
  • Originally posted by asupermane Glad you got your life back! i know the feeling. exactly what you mean yeah it seems like a lot of people seem to understand what i'm talking about. this morning i've been reading the pirates of the burning se…
  • Originally posted by ultradaz Lo All I have read this post today as i am new to this forum and i must say it is a very good post i agree that most games today are just one big grind like yourselve's say and i am 32 and have played alot of FPS/RTS/…
  • you guys come up with some really good replies.  I'm starting to feel much better about this whole shit situation that i've found myself in but ive realized that after playing games starting with the commodore64 since i was old enough to load tape i…
  • Originally posted by Synyster777 I play lineage II and I think wow is a grind so eh.....I found wow to be more of a grind just because of the fact it was a terribly boring grind and everything you do is a grind people say if you get bored of grindi…
  • Thanks guys you're all extremely helpful.  I think i will wait around to see what comes out.  My preferred option would be to design a game that meets all of my personal criteria and also ensure that it is possible for serious gamerz to play also. I…
  • Originally posted by Shalak1989     . From what I understand a lot of people on this forum hate most mmorpgs these days as well and want refund on their 5 years of life spent on them:P OH HERE HERE!!!! The man understands as do many many man…
  • Thats okay mate, yeah i've been reading the dark ages website for a while it was going to be one of the next ones i gave a shot to.  It seems pretty interesting how theres sooooo many classes that you can go and how you go against the other Realms. …
