You gonna do your own review of it Neal?

I'm keeping an eye on it and could go either way. I'll wait until some of the subsimmers here give up some initial impressions.

I signed up for the request to be on the beta for this absolutely ages ago, but I'm a bit too busy to accept it now they've offered me the chance. Even so, I'm certainly interested in it all the same and will be keeping an eye on it, it looks like it might be fun.

Yes, I am. I'm hoping it's a good title, we need a good online pirate game!

I can see the 'guild' name already:

Onkel Neal's Plunderin' Poopswabbers.

I had high hopes, but the addition of magical sailing into the wind just sucked all the interest out of me. That and no penalties at all for being killed/sunk.

Beta testing it now and use my other alias so I guess I can tell....not that I will be playing it anyways...it is like Voyage Century so far very disappointing.

...if you want an idea of the game metrics play Voyage Century for free and you'll have a feel for it...it has some eye candy but I'll save you the 40 or bucks whatever and save you the disappointment....its pretty weak.

I hear see the same echo from the beta testers boards....sorry to burst the bubble...keep playing SH4

dat game is doing pretty dang good for small mp groups...been playing it on ubi servers and have no problems hosting or playing.

But yea...pretty disappointing. imo potbs
