Negitive .. at lvl 37 there is very little that challenges me .. all quests are completed i can solo all enemies .. and the boss battle has been down since Nov 20th 2007... that 3 weeks after public release of the game and .... say ten weeks ago .. hmmm yeah thats a negitive ...

Positive .. I can Solo any enemy in the game because i have lvled up my skillls and Not. making myself far more powerful then any lvl 12 free player (not a better player i stink but powerful yeah) had a chance to complete all the missions, own and sail all the ships. Spend countless hours with guildies ..(which you could do for free) but not with a staff in your hand... just plain fun crushing the lvl 37 officers on the colossis flags... try doing that from a light sloop ...

the first month is $4.95 pretty cheap to find out for yourself if its worth it or not ... i play daily, have more then one unlimited account and several pirates that i play and my family plays .. yes it is worth it ..

This was the first online game I've played and I went away for about a month because I thought maybe that other games might be better and....NOT. Especially for mac users, there really isn't anything out there that I found that compares.

Well i think it is worth it i don't think it is a rip off. But when i had a free account everyone in my guild who had unlimited access which was most of the people in my guild said it was worth it. So i got it for one month and i like it so i got it again i think that you have more freedom with unlimited other then basic. i was doing all my quest and all that till i was lvl 8 and that banner thing that advertises kept coming up when i should have completed the quest. Plus with unlimited you can actually but things get more of the weapons other then just having the gun and sword, now i have not only the gun and sword but i also have the voodoo doll and the dagger i have the quest for grenades but i havent had time to do it and no one will help me with it but i dont care i only fight in the quests but eventually when you start to get bored and you have nothing to do on the game then you tend to want to shop well maybe thats only girls but still SHOPPING SPREE and who doesnt want one of those. I mean come on i love the game enough to get unlimited and so i mean like this one guy in my guild he lost his unlimited (it ended lol) and he keeps complaining the game is too boring without it i mean sure i can go without it but i would rather have unlimited then basic so i hope you get unlimited and have alot of fun on the game and i hope this helps so so so much

It took me exactly 5 days to be uncurably hooked. I had a few good friends show me the ropes and how to do anything besides go to jail. I been playing now for less than a month I think. Im at level 19 and going up all the time. I love the quests, sailing, making things dead. My most fun thing to do is go in and tease those high level guards and vodoo doll them. Then run around not letting them get me while I annialiate them lol. Crazy world isnt it. lol

Its so worth it to me. Had VMK not said they was shutting down I probably never would have tried it. Now that Im hooked I actually like it better, well different than VMK.

That's exactly why I subscribed. I have never experienced the game with ads because I started paying before my one week full screen preview ran out. What I can't stand is that the game lags, frequently. It's not much better than what it was with basic, and that drives me nuts. But otherwise, yes it is worth it.

Basic is good in that you still get to play and for free.
What stinks about it is that you get dc'ed alot, and obviously can't do much.

I would love to have unlimited access, but it's true that you loose your current status when you switch to unlimited?
And i'm just afraid if I start to pay to play, I will loose interest....

I don't think you lose your current status, that would be stupid. I'm thinking of getting unlimited access, but I don't think my parents would allow which is what holds me back...

It is very much worth it I got it because I hated being left out because I was so noob-ish. It's very easy to level up (If you know how ). Also, tattoo quests, mothers day tattoos, and other Holiday things are a nice feature.
