Ok way totally insanely cool!! Uh, one thought though. Four slots for weapons means no more packing all your weapons at once. So, uh, what happens to the F6 button, assuming that F5 becomes the sailing skill? Have to wait and see. Drat, really? I don't wanna wait! Thinkin that a lot of pirates are going to have issues catching up unfavored single enemy weapons after this hits open though. Yes, myself included. Also, I can think of a few pirates who level equally that this could be a bit iffy with.

As for the what was it 40 slots for clothes? It's not even quite double what we have right now, but hey, ANY more is a good thing. Just hoping that like currently any quest items earned after the full inventory can still be held. It's way more inkage, which to me is a very good thing, considering I sold a fair amount of ink to get the St. Pat's tattoos. Woo hoo! More ink!!

For the weapons, yes, quests might have been more fun. Or even the ability to go into a weaponsmith and buy the little buggers after certain quests. But drops do add a random element that should make otherwise boring grinding just a little more fun.

The gold cap raise could be fun, but with as many pirates as I have constantly shuffling gold around, I can't even get to the current max. Could be a year before I see that much gold on any one pirate, and that's AFTER it hits open. For the rest of you sane people not juggling 8 paid pirates, figuring out the new gold cap should be a kick. Hey CT, could also, should we be so lucky, 999,999!


Despite a few reservations, I'm very hopeful about this. It seems that the ball they got rolling with the Rott quests back in October has really picked up speed. Things are moving quicker now, and with definite purpose. From Rott, to Jolly, to EITC, and now this. These new weapons mean something. They aren't going to just give us new weapons for nothing. The future of Pirates is coming. And my guess is we don't have much longer to wait. I for one, am hopeful.

A toast to D on this, for finally actually getting somewhere. Drink up me hearties, yo ho!!
