Next time perhaps try paying for the game before leaving the store. Makes the "get away" a lot easier.

Many many enjoyable hours playing this game.
As soon as I was able to get/buy/steal one of those small Royal Mail sloops (I think it was a sloop), that's when I was able to really take off and start dominating the enemy. I liked the sword fighting a lot. Not so much the dancing

The dancing part I hate, but it's definitely needed in order for you to finish the game. Did the cops get you? Is it on video? Last edited by Jimbuna; 11-21-15 at 09:47 AM. |

Well, now I have to complain. This thread got my interest up again, so I pulled out my copy and loaded it up. I ended up playing for two hours, and then turned it off and went about my day. Just at bedtime I was feeling like I needed a little mindless cheering-up so I started it up again. Five hours later, getting toward 0200, I finally forced myself to shut it off and go to bed.
I HATE THIS GAME!!!

Quite addictive, just like the RT and CIV series. I think it's a good thing Sid Meier's business isn't controlled substances
To this day, from time to time, I still go back to playing RT2. And because of this thread, I went back to playing Pirates! into the wee hours this weekend. Shame on you! I suppose you all know that on rare occasions, the mysterious traveler in the back room is Sid (shaved face).

I'm actually thinking of making an American Faction and Navy mod for Sid Meier's Pirates. Of course, it would include the USS Constitution How does that sound to you guys? It'd take a while, my PC isn't working, but maybe after Christmas? Last edited by Jimbuna; 11-23-15 at 09:47 AM. |

Yeah, I'm another Pirates! addict! Have not played it for a few months, but it is there waiting on my desktop for any moment of weakness!
