"Safe" places to hide?

It was not pretty. >_<

But it is sad though, inside of prison, I don't freeze.
But as soon as I am in a city, I don't stop freezing!
I guess I belong in prison, he he.


Building are a good idea, but I would not put it past
me that some person who is stronger than me may
attack me there. Can they do that, or is there no
fighting in buildings?

It's probably because there's usually nobody in prison, and as a result, waaay less lag. You get two people on the screen with you and the game won't stop freezing...not exactly Massively Multiplayer when it can't support three people on one map.

There's a lot less lag in buildings too, because again: less people, less lag. As for being attacked in buildings, I would assume it can happen, although maybe if you do something like, say, play Poker in the pub, you probably won't be attacked. Probably some kind of restriction against that.

That and the game doesn't have to process so much information. If you even look at the sea, your game will dramatically slow down because you have to add animations, collision detections, all that jazz. In jail, It just has to load a few solid objects and their graphics. Pretty simple if you ask me.

There is nothing (no person or creature) in buildings to attack you.

There is a bug on Tortuga, that the crabs can walk thru the half boat sticking out of the sand. So when you talking to the boat guy, the crab walks straight thru the building and attack you.

But just go where there are no red dots close by on your map. Tortuga has a lot more enemies around that if you stand idly around, you can get attacked easily.

Maybe if I could just log in, I could enjoy Poker in the pub. That doesn't lag at all, from what I recall.
