Vincent, We have a long priority list. Jeffry gets to stuff as fast as he can. Often a lot of tweaking can be done to mod options to tailor the game to your personal tastes. I’m sure he will take a look at some point.

So I wanted to address Dave’s question above because I just saw it.

On the armor – there are a LOT of characters that do…[Read more]

I’m not certain there is such a thing in this game LOL. However, if what you mean is that you want the most normal game possible where it is not overly easy, but not intentionally difficult either, I would choose Captain or Corsair. I myself usually play on Commodore because I like it a little bit harder. The reason I don’t like it higher than…[Read more]

Thanks for your solution Maltacus! Very much appreciated. No worries on where it came from Mate. Post whatever you want. I don’t care where it comes from as long as it helps people. Unlike others we can name, I don’t intentionally delete or bury posts giving valuable information to enthusiasts/people.

That’s really my primary problem with those…[Read more]

Thank you Schiavonna, Mot and Captain Qbert for your introductory posts and your interest in what we are doing here.

WELCOME TO THE REEF MATES!

Schiavonna has already provided a lot of good input/opinions and we always look forward to more.

Captain Qbert, Thanks for the additional input to Vincent’s excellent post. We will certainly take you…[Read more]

EDIT: I moved this over to the Introductions and Off-topic forum but I wanted it to have its own new status separately from the main thread. Still not getting the hang all of the clunky word press tools.

I have been to the show at Treasure Island in Las Vegas twice. The first time was years ago when they first opened the place. It was…[Read more]

Tulkas, it was a question I had myself a few years ago so I tested it out.

The answer is no. Once you reach 100 points – that’s all you get, so you can drop, sell, or stash the extra stuff into your ship’s chest. I always get rid of all of the extra unnecessary books and items once I get to 100 – unless its just really cool stuff I like, such as…[Read more]

WOW! Vincent WOW!,

I have thoroughly read your “novel” and I am impressed with both the dedication to get the ideas out there and several that we had not thought about before. This is awesome! Thank you bud! We will definitely do some of the things you suggest.

FIRST OFF though: Let me express my thanks by telling you that with your long…[Read more]

You’re welcome Madz,

So take a look at the different versions of the Black Pearl you see. Most of them are textured completely differently. I left I think only one dark version in the game and it will appear randomly. So that ship is called Armed English Merchantman in the game because that’s what she looks like.

I prefer my more realistic…[Read more]

Look at what I just stumbled across. I have never even heard of this before.

Has anyone played this?

Can someone tell me if its any good?

This looks fun and pretty cool as well.

It’s cheap as heck! I am too busy to give it a try right now with all of the stuff I am working on with our own game, but maybe I will download it for later.…[Read more]

So for those modelers who want to submit Pirates of the Burning Sea ships I wanted to provide the exact contract verbiage as given to me by a dev a long while back and also quoted to me by one of the original modelers.

PERMISSION AND COPYRIGHT:

Here is the deal with PotBS ships:

FLS agreed to create a content creation program for shipmodels,…[Read more]

AGREED!

I am looking forward to seeing more of that model! From the pictures you showed me I think she will be an absolute beauty.

So to your question:

Good question with regards to submitting models for the contest and I just wrote a more thorough response via PM. My thoughts are that paragraph 6 of the modeling rules define part of the…[Read more]

Sorry guys, this has been a problem I’ve been meaning to fix forever. I can tell you with confidence that it at one time was a much larger problem than it is now – and that there are only a hand full of ships left that have this issue. I would guess less than 10.

I would also bet that because Jeffrey has adopted this to his to-do-list, it will…[Read more]

So I am very excited to report an update. The talented modeler Yo Ho Ho has indeed given us his ships for the game!

I encouraged him to enter these into the modeling contest and hope he will.…[Read more]

So just to follow up, this is a topic on the ships we need in the game. If you would like to talk about any of these or have good examples or pictures or information you would like to contribute on this subject – feel free to comment.

The only forum rule I will impose on this is NO FANTASY SHIP discussion – unless its to make fun of them. I won’t…[Read more]
