Default Pirates of the Burning Sea - who else is playing?

I'm a British Naval Officer on Blackbeard server. I LOVE the game. I am curious to see who else from here in playing and where.

I'm playing Spanish on Rackham.

Naval Officer at level 45 & I left my Freetrader at level 20 building cannon & gun outfittings for the Society's ships.

Neal was gonna do a review about it sometime in between all his world jetsetting & rockstar-like lifestyle.

Yo...got a 42 British Naval Officer on the Antigua server. Definitely digging it so far! Ship to ship combat is a blast, especially when you group up and take on large groups or do the port battles/contention. However, I despise the avatar combat and I usually skip all of those missions unless the reward is worth doing it for.

It does look like a great game but im not sure if i should buy it or not.

Are there computer controlled ships in this game? I mean can you go round the map on your own fighting the AI and doing missons like other MMO games or do you have to fight other human players?

Less than interested, sadly. A shame given the beautiful models.

I played this game for a couple of years, but the changes they kept
making to the game is what ended up making me and my friends leave.
Even with the bugs the earlier versions of the game are better than what the game became later.
They could have done so much with this game.
Another one down the tubes with bad devs.
