Pirates Online          Lol, or no lol?

http://apps.pirates.go.com/pirates/v3/#/news/currentnews.html

I saw this game on commercial and it looked okay. It didn't look bad, but not very good either. I thought it was worth a try. And I didn't have much else to do anyways... So I went on the website and dowloaded it: https://apps.pirates.go.com/pirates/v3/index?pageId=createAccount  Then I went on the game. Note: You can't have a bad computer or else the game won't work properly. When I went on the game and made a character, named him and all that. And it was pretty good! There were lots of very specific details. After I named my character the game had a tuturial. Then I started playing. At first, it looks like a million newbs are running around you. But thats not really it, it's just the server. The put the new people on one server where not much people are on. Only the people like you who just joined and is just training. After a while I was okay at the game, about a level 10. And I had quite a bit of friends and made a guild called "Army of Tortuga" (lol) Tortuga is one of the main islands on the game. After a while of playing I noticed that the game wasn't very good unless with unlimited access. (Unlimited Access: Basicly a membership.) Well I got it. And believe it or not the game was great! Better than ever! And I kept playing till this day. (I only started about a month ago.) I am now a level 25.

NOTE: This game is made by Disney, Disney has made very sucky games in the past, but this one is their best one yet by far. And if you want to watch how it is on Youtube, don't the Videos on this are gay lol. Yes, these pirates gamble! But I would recomend to not gamble because I lost over 2000 gold......  :panda:

Rated: E +10

Weapons (From first to last): Sword (level 1), Gun (level 2) (Basicly a Revolver), VooDoo Doll (level 10), Grenade level 20), and the best........ :iceCream: VooDoo Staff :iceCream: (level 30). The farthest weapon I got up to right now is the grenade.

Level cap: 40

So it's your choice, Lol, or no lol?

i dunno. free is good because its free.

but its also bad because it means anyone and everyone will be playing.
like.....those types that refuse to pay for games or cant because mom wont let them.
the types that usually make stuffty game communities.

What are the controls like?

This is more aimed at kids, no doubt about it, I mean I LOVE the movies but this is just scamming all the kids/adults that watched it. MMO's based off things normally FAIL, Star Wars Galaxies wasn't a failure until NGE (which probably lost more money then made), but to go as far as making a MMO off a movie that doesn't even have much of a back story? Come on, let me guess there some curse pirates that you have to kill 50 times to complete this quest. All these things will contradict to the movie like an End game boss like the Kracken or Davy Jones... You can't kill them they are invincible, the only way to kill them is to stab the heart.

What are the controls like?
WASD controls. Like Blockland you can look around easier by holding down the right mouse click. Space is to jump, but there is no reason to jump really... Jumping isn't a dodge or anything. It just looks funny.  :cookieMonster:

Yay.  I hate point and click to move controls on games like these.  I might try it.

I liked it when I tried it. But the nearly required membership = no lol.

Well, I guess it's kind of a point and click. But not Really. You can click to use your current weapon, or use CTRL (what I use.) It's a lot easier.

The game is a bit like World of Warcraft, with the skills, level ups, and things like that.  :cookieMonster:

(I added weapons and level cap to the thread)

To get full features, you must become a Subscriber.

Subscriber my ass.

All games with a subscriber "get more stuff by paying us $20 a month when we're too rich already" suck ass.


But it has Pirates...so I might try.

NOTE: THIS GAME HAS NO SHIP VS SHIP PVP(YOU CAN ONLY BLOW UP NPC SHIPS)

So....? Theres player PvP, which is boring to me, but fun to some others. I don't think ship PvP will be much different. :P

o_o a pirate mmo without blowing up other pirates is like.... mac without cheese..

So THAT'S why he hates Windows! He's on cheese!

Ahem.....PvP means player vs. player, but in this case it's pirate vs. pirate.

So put some cheese on that macoroni!
