Where's the flaw in that? I like having the idea of earning back those ammo rights. I think they need to give more banknotes from the ships though.

Pirates, as I understood the term, were sailors who attacked other ships on the high seas, for GOLD... arrrr....

And pirates sometimes got together and attacked towns from their ships, then landed and took the town's GOLD... arrr...

Now someone explain to me what Pirates are doing PROTECTING towns and the town's gold? I think Disney's lost their marbles somewhere, or none of them had a healthy childhood, pretending to board ships, then land on lonely islands and bury treasure. Eye patches were a must also.

I'm sure science and genetic engineering in the future will allow for purple people, tiny and big people, muscle and skill enhancements etc., but pirates lived in 1740, not 2140. And I somehow doubt pirates acquired genetic altering potions by playing computer puzzles, but I didn't live back then, so I might be wrong here...

And... does it occur to anyone else besides me that they didn't put these cannons inside the actual game because they are trying to AVOID coding for the actual game?

I just think it stinks that I(as in me alone), will probably never get to the last cannon amo.

My shots are only 57% hit at best, and being able to shoot faster might help.(As in, I'll need to wait for this to hit open before I can own at cannon defense)

It's really challenging, and I like that, along with potions. Both these minigames are going to entertain me for some time before anything major comes out.

Really wish big D would also put some of those bandit flags and colors onto our ships...(I want a black flag with skull and cross bones! Should have been here at day 1!)

As said before, ship work needs to be worked on accordingly. Nothing feels like being a real pirate, and it would seem as if all Pirates are good in this game... I don't really care to sink enemy ships, but would like to take them over. You lower the ships health to nearly nothing, and you swap the enemies deck. But you know, why just kill them all, you're a pirate, you love gold. Hold the maggots for Ransom, make the Navy pay for their soldiers back.

Some people and I am one of them like the treasure hunt for different loot and if you do not look you definitely will not find anything. Like the lottery you have to play to win. I also like the idea of things not coming from a quest that everyone does and gets the same items. Though I think that new and varied quests should be added because they add to gameplay. Just as mini games add a different experience. We must remember this is a 10 and up game so it is part child's play. Disney does need to add more for the older crowd and I am sure they will. They are working on it New islands and NPC's are on the horizon, mate.

I still kill enemies and try, just not getting my hopes up for anything much.
