everyone should be able to shoot everything. - Page 6 - Pirates of the Caribbean Online Fansite & Forums

Um why we can't shoot them is because of the code. Barbossa tells you this in the beginning.

I think POTCO could safely be T. I mean, most kids, even young ones, can play T. The only M game I play is Halo (all of them), and they could easily be T, as the aliens in Campaign give, like, blue blood, and you can hardly ever see blood in multiplayer.

Still, even with guns there is no blood. Lego Star Wars has guns, its E10.

True... but thats Lego lol. When you shoot a normal human human being and their limbs fall off, there will be blood, not lego parts sticking out.

And I have played Halo and the blood isn't that bad. Just a tiny bit when you are shot. Honestly, I've played T games that have worse animated blood. And I would agree with you about your thought of the T rating. It honestly isn't much different from E10, except it will usually be a bit more graphic.

I still; however, believe that you shouldn't be able to shoot humans. Too realistic, and it just isn't very Disney is it?

Yeah, I don't think you should really shoot humans either. It's fine the way it is.

Oh yeah, many worse T games... The swearing in Halo could be an issue, but I've played Skate 2 (rated T) and there's at least twice as many swears.

you should be able to but it will only do damage they will do no emote, just the bright flash & its done

Invincable Monster · #6 12-29-2010, 02:29 AM

I think that we should not be able to, it doesn't make sense....... if they are alive, it will take one shot to kill them, if it takes like 10 shots to kill them it wouldn't make any sense. The reason we can shoot the undead is because they are already dead.

[rant] The ratings RARELY stop the kid from playing them. Log on to Xbox Live or PSN, pop in GTA or RDR or CoD or Halo and listen to the voices. The average age: 13, but only because of the teenager in the lobby. But, what is in common with those games? The rating. All are rated M. The rating is just a recommendation or a warning to the parents, not a law. I bought GTA 3 at the age of 14 by myself back when it came out, despite it being rated M. Some kids can handle the violence and blood and swears, in fact, most can. It's nothing they don't see on TV or hear at school. But, the media picks out the mentally unstable teenager who shot up a high school and connects it to them playing M-rated games, despite the fact that the motive was already announced and had nothing to do with games. However, does this make buying your 8-year-old Red Dead Redemption ok? No, but it isn't as bad as it is made out to be. [/rant]

And as Davy said earlier, shooting people isn't very Disney, that's true, but then Armada of the Damned isn't much Disney is it? Company morals are situational. They tell the parents, "We care about your kids" and tell the kids and teenagers, "Check this out. Cool, huh? BUY IT." This isn't ripping on D, it's a business tactic and everyone does it. No need to get angry, it sells goods and moves our economy, but the company will still not have you believe it. It's just something to keep in mind about this issue.

Armada was "enough Disney" for it to be cancelled. I agree that "Company morals are situational" but Disney is pretty aggressive about protecting their properties and their image.

Cancelled, eh? I didn't know that. :P

I just saw coverage of it at E3 and said, "Hey, I wanna buy that!" Then I saw the Black Ops and NFS: Hot Pursuit trailers and it slipped my mind, so I haven't been following it.

Shame, I wish they would have at least let another company make it without the "Pirates of the Caribbean" title and tones. It looked like a rewarding RPG to me.

Have to agree with you. Armada looked like it could have been a lot of fun. I was looking forward to it...

Still don't think it's necessary to shoot people in POTCO though. Don't really need to when we can poison them, slash them, blow them up, drown them, chop them to bits, use black magic or whatever else there is...

bartholomew bladeroberts · #11 12-30-2010, 02:05 AM

i'm just say that theres shotting humans in disney's potc3 game no blood just damage still not sure where or how it will work just saying that they've done it before

Tiberius Fireskull · #12 12-30-2010, 02:08 AM

Aye, but that game is rated T isn't it.

I think that the POTCO team wants to keep the game rated E10.

Tiberius Fireskull · #13 12-30-2010, 03:48 AM

Uhh, lets stay away from that territory... some may consider it controversial, and its off topic from the original post.

Ofury/ Tom · #14 01-02-2011, 04:22 AM

I don't see why they can't put it in game anyone that plays this game has most likely seen the movies... not saying everyone has cause ik a few that don't... but still wasn't Barbossa shot by Jack?

Swash · #15 05-15-2011, 07:11 AM

I say shooting should be allowed because mainly everyone who plays this game has seen the movies. The POTC movies all have violence and cursing in them and shooting of humans. Therefore everyone who plays this game has been exposed to the violence of shooting, likes it, and would not be affected if slightly more violence was added.
