Anyways we are getting off track. My point is, in the game pirates are portrayed as freedom fighters. Not true in real life, but did they have voodoo dolls/staff or epically pwn skeletons?

Haha thats nothin i got a 72-gun ship on POTBS :P - brings it over to potco - kills navy so that pirate can get all the guns -

like that idea lol

The Navy- Yes They are the good guys. They wont blow up Port royal because of innocent ppl living there. But they could do something Bad to Tortuga. Dude its a Pirate Town! They, Like Us, Kill the undead. Everyone here has seen a Navy Cadet fighting a undead bandit atleast once.

Jolly Roger- He has already reached the hieghts of cruelity by Killing People in Ravens cove, Making Pirates join him by the help of casa de muertos. He wants to kill jack for revenge and become the pirate lord of caribbean. But he doesnt want to rule over pirates and undead- he wants to rule over the navy too! he wants to rule over the eitc since becket betrayed him.

EITC- East India Trading Company. Most of us indians have read about them in our Civics Book at school. They Ruled over india. Came as Traders, became tyrants. They Were not even connected to britain, they just became a empire themselves!

It seems we are doing both.. plundering the navy/eitc/skeletons, and freedom fighting. besides. i thin the navy is the only one whos allowed to move cargo, to prevent smuggling as for an extra piece of profit.

Jolly already has invasions, but all he does is burn down walls or a TAVERN (lame) or a mansion. The eitcs blew up the islands, but we have rebuilt. then they stop after that.

I mean, WHO CARES about doing the fleets if they dont do anything with the loot. the fleets dont give any good loot anyway. same with invasions. i mean, so what if he burns the tavern. jack escapes every time! so what if he burns the town walls. he does nothing with the weapons or power he gets. The mansion, well who cares? it can be rebuilt. If i was jolly, i'd leave my whole army (to occupy it) there and burn down the whole town.

DO i really need to talk about the navy? They are noobs but i haven't seen them do anything harmful anyways. they just sit around in there forts.

Aye SEAKING, I agree the fleets give NOTHING, whenever I do fleets I never get anything. Also I'm a level 50 and there are no enemies that are a challenge. Thrall Captains I can kill with 2 shots of my pistol. Darkhart I can kill with a blunder shot and a couple sword hits. Foulberto Smasho is just way to challenging, unless you're on Andaba. I would like to see a level 60-70 enemies that are a challenge.

Also you guys are saying that this game is unrealistic. If this gam WAS realistic one hit of an enemy would slice us open and we would die, not become groggy. If this game was realistic a tiny skeleton couldn't walk around with a loot skull chest. If this game was realistic there would be no Voodoo. There is a huge list of unrealistic things but its fine that it is unrealistic.

If we where evil would we defend the islands from jolly?

Our reasoning for defending the islands is because, although we are often defending Navy strongholds, losing ports in the Caribbean to one enemy for the sake of isolating another doesn't usually end well. Not to mention, Roger's campaign is dedicated to have a vicious grip over all presences in the Caribbean.

The only real source of a "good guy" in this game is the townsfolk (NPCs.) The British Navy (who are second in line of "goodness") are corrupt in their inner circles, the East India Trading Company is a monopolistic organization dedicated to infiltrate the governments of the Caribbean by exploiting trade, and Jolly Roger is bent on slaughtering any ideas of freedom. And as for pirates, although we fight these forces, you have to consider us evil ourselves. We are designed to kill, pillage, and destroy ships, that might just "house innocent Navy soldiers" - after all, not everybody can be brainwashed, aye?

The only reason the pirates are considered as "heroes" is because they preserve the idea of freedom in a free world. If you take away our views of freedom, then you take away the one film that covers piracy in praise.

Overall, the game needs less of a superhero feel, and more of a piratic feel.

[SEAKING23]

Well becuase we are the only people who preserve the idea of freedom. Why should we invade? the towns people are nice to us. there are no merchant ships becuase of the eitc, and that makes the towns people poor. they hate the eitc becuase of that and we fight them so they like us. and we defend there homes.

[SEAKING23]

The eitc controls the navy mate!

[Tobias Daggercrash]

i know. True.

[swashbuckler1]

lol the navy were supposed to be good but no they betrayed everyone and gone on the eitc side
anyways im leading us of track we r pirates and have to fight until destiny!!

[Mr. Awesome]

Of course this game needs more evil.

[SEAKING23]

I beg to differ about the world Mr. awesome, lol. But i agree about the game.

[SEAKING23]

Hey would use grape/chain shot the slow the down, and board. pirates weren't very good at broadsiding, but at boarding they where excellent becuase you there large crews and weapons.

[Mr. Awesome]

I always feel bad when I kill a navyman, he was just doing his job...

[SEAKING23]

I laugh..... i bet they did the same to a towns person, anyways.
