Whoa! This is Good.

I believe that more Privateering features just MIGHT be coming... And that's something I'm excited about, eve though SvS is not currently (but was) my favourite part of the game.

The phase files talk of Boarding Axes, Spyglasses, etc.. And these are great when you think of the potential of this. Back in 2009 fall, at the L.A Conference I believe Disney did unofficially announce a form of boarding enemy SvS ships. These could be connected to that.

New ships coming, cannon rams, possible lvl upgrades, cannon weapon classes, ship customization... Once they come out (along with a ton of incredible ideas PotCo CAN put into SvS), Privateering will be as fun as the first thought of it.

I'd basically want SvS to be not limited to Privateering. Make French and Spanish allegiances permanent and balanced, while general SvS should happen between pirate ships in the Uncharted Waters. A third faction for Privateering is an idea to be acknowledged as well.
