Just an update - I was sick yesterday and never did get the chance to swap the vid card before todays v11.2 update came out...
Good thing I guess!

every problem I had is now gone

I can sail, TP, and all my weapons are working again.... I can finally now actually comment on the new stuff.
I haven't done much - but it would be nice if the Guild list could TP to the ship. I keep a very short friends list and REALLY dont want to put all the guild on it... we are still trying to get used to Crewing, but I think we are getting better...
Yea, something's up with there boats... one second I can't hit them, the next one's a sitting duck LOL I'll have to play more to see about these...
The pouches... *cha-ching!!!* they are on my thumbs up list! The tonics? BOOO thumbs down!! The Grog? Eh... I was ok with it before - I'd ratehr have the tonics back...
Since I've just begun the quests, I'm actually not having a hard time getting stuff from the ships - but then again, I'm not getting drops from EVERY one of them... so its good for now
With that - thank goodness for the v2 patch!!! I'm just glad to have sailing and weapons back
