Nuju, i admit is very true in this case.
POTCO arises out of the film series Pirates of the Caribbean. The series takes a magical world perspective of things that happen in the real world, like Harry Potter. We might be battling a skeleton with a gun for a hand, seeing things we don't see in day to day life, but this game happens to be based during our world's history. The game ye must note, happens around 1720 not 1632, and so i don't see what's wrong with Skels having grenades.
Many people like Nuju and Bart Foulsteel have been saying this over and over.... the Ships have to none the less be named according to its design. I'd prefer if they put actual models of Sloops, Gals, Frigs and Ships o' the line in the game.
Dell, yer points be true, and taking that real ships be slow, and that we exist in a world where there is magic, the Ships can be propelled to go faster with pirates' unique style of adding on speed to ships, as well as the voodoo magic figureheads that one can buy. I'm a kid and I wouldn't find anything complicated much if they put realistic ships, but for ship customization, they simplify it for a wider market.
Sven, we do experience closed-together, fictional islands; lights to guide us for quests, stowaway happening in a few seconds, ships sailing without NPC crew, broadsides without workers on it, etc. Now that way th game is just a representation of how events actually progress. I wouldn't think that i 'whispered' a text message to a friend far off, and then teleported to him. I don't think according to my story that I visited Padres a million times ( I take it that I've gone a few times, not everyday as is portrayed in the game ). I don't take it wither that my ship launched from no where including wild islands, but instead launched from a harbor, and I also don't take it that I've been killed so many times, gone to jail somehow, launch a ship also almost so easilly, and MAINLY that I along with every pirate in the Caribbean started off with the same story from Rambleshack.
The game is just a portrayal of the functioning of your character in the story of POTC. The experience is made that we meet every movie character. However, I take my story from a realistic perspective, and not that some ray of light guided me to a place but instead told to find the place by a person.
You all see? The game is just a representation of a story, and Port Royal though an island in the game, I take it as a part of Jamaica as in the movies.I also don't take it that every pirate progressed the same story as me ( told ye before ), and that they got ships without plundering them from others, and that they have 'Voodoo staffs'.
That's why the game needs to change from a full unrealistic same-story fast progressing representation, to a not-so-unrealistic representation of the story. I want to take my boat out of the harbor, go into a real Caribbean, start my pirate's story differently, but keep the rest with us, and have magic and everything to do with the movies, in the game.
This is basically why ships of that time have to have a realistic appearance in the game, i.e, because this happens in a real world ( with POTC and magic ) history .
I am in fact going to start a thread about how they should put realism into this game, without making it complicated for kids.
