Pirates are being summoned....

[Basil Dreadflint]

Give them credit!

They are trying to make the game more of a role playing thing. I think they have failed to get any new development done, especially since they made some promises earlier this year, and they are trying to give us SOMETHING to keep us active and involved.
Putting a few of their own 'players' into the game and developing a continuing story line is a touch that you don't see in other games. A live interactive person has to be behind the EITC face. Name another game that does this!!!???


Personally, I would rather have the new story chapter, higher notoriety and weapons levels, the ability to customize my ships, even just a little, bigger storage and gold capacity, etc., etc.

The real problem with an event like this, or any other, is that it has to be done on selected servers only, and those servers pack up so bad that the lag is unbearable.
