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.

Obviously, it can't be too intense, as this game is directed towards kids... but I feel like the hero. Pirates aren't exactly heroes. I want to feel like a bloodthirsty thief sometimes, aye?

Exactly. I would like to see more of OUR evil. Since when were pirates good? I don't remember pirates doing quests for townspeople for less gold than a coat costs. Why do we even care that much about invasions? (Besides the free rep) WE should be the ones invading. I don't remember pirates walking into stores and buying anything either. Stealing is free, and that's what pirates do.

[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.

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!

[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.

Your right, the Navy Ships have a lot of cannons. Thats exactly what gets you killed. Most pirates would have had ships probably similar to sloops... maaaaybe a Frigate, but unlikely. A real pirate would not have gone near Navy Ships. Period.

Well Davy I'n history pirates sailed in sloops with one gun deck but they had a good deal of ppl and good deal of guns and they took over other ships of higher value and strength and sailed away while they killed or threw them off the side of the ship.

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.
