U can boot ppl from ur ship too, but I don't think it is necessarily "Walk the Plank" style LOL, even tho it would be awesome if it was "Walk the Plank" style. And the Player Profile card you can see what level weapons & skills they have, but u can't see where they put their skill points though (unless its a bug thats preventing you to see where skill points are placed).

Just ran thru the tutorial...

Rambleshack:



Landing for the first time on PR:



The left is the new entrance to the fort, the right is the new graveyard:



In the new graveyard:



treats



New Lookout deely thingy:



So far it seems mostly un-buggy. It IS a massive update geared for new pirates though....sigh.

anything and everything but what is really needed!

More content to reach higher levels than 40. Geez, how hard can it really be? Python isn't exactly formidable code so I have to believe the fault lies with the "Imagineers" as Disney calls its creative engineering team. If this game were made in China we would already be up to level 60! Of course it would be in Chinese so it would be a lot more difficult for many of us to play.... jk

I really am excited about all of these. They look awesome, and some of the updates will make the game easier/smoother to play. Not to mention that these are proof that the dev's have not forgotten the game altogether.

But, as one of my guildies said, these changes are almost exclusively geared towards new players. There is still little/nothing in this for those who have been around long enough to get one (or many) pirates up to level 40, and are getting bored.

So, while I'm hopeful, I'm still not completely impressed.

I'm surprised they don't have something to ask the player, which to default to (OpenGL or DirectX.) Or even a toggle or checkbox or something, on Launcher1.exe.

About getting booted off a ship: is that person KEPT off, or do they have to be booted repeatedly? Do they go to jail, or port of call?
