    Graphics/operability in Relation to Carribean Tales

    Does this game have similar graphics to AOP: Carribean Tales? Meaning: If I had no trouble running Carribean Tales, is COAS likely to work okay on my PC? Or have the graphics improved drastically and I should just go bury my PC somewhere. :lol: It ain't top notch, that's for sure: Windows...

    New Screenshots for EIC

    oh—I hope not. Pirates! was <i>okay</i> in its own right, but not really something to be replicated.

    New Screenshots for EIC

    Alright, well, I didn't see any new updates for East India Company. They've got a few new screenshots up. Looks like ships will have a build-time. The shipwright won't be magically pulling ships out of his pocket when you flip through the catalog and pick out the one you want, sorry. <img...

    Its on eBay for about $10

    Well, let me ask this then: If my system could reasonably handle Age of Pirates on mid-grade graphics settings, should I have many problems running PotBS? Thanks for the reply.

    Its on eBay for about $10

    I really wish there were some kind of demo or something I could load onto my computer just to see how it runs. I really didn't want to chunk $35 or more on a game I wasn't sure my system could handle. But, I might be willing to risk $10 on eBay for an unopened box. Then again, if I'm thinking...

    New East India Company Screenshots!

    Drats. Moved back. Is there no end to the pirate-sim drought we've been suffering?

    Fun at Santiago Vega

    Those greedy tavern keepers keep talking out both sides of their mouths. Maybe they'd like to listen to my pistols talk.

    !!!NEWS!!! CORSAIRS III - ADD ON by AKELLA !!!NEWS!!!

    One of those screenshots has a guy on a roof? Umm. Surely there's a reason? Maybe they added a jump feature. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/bounce.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":b:" border="0" alt="bounce.gif" /> If not, I found a bug and it hasn't even been released yet...

    !!!NEWS!!! CORSAIRS III - ADD ON by AKELLA !!!NEWS!!!

    Which raises the age old question: Why should we have to pay for an expansion pack to fix problems that should have been addressed in patches long ago? Then again, if it fixes the graphics stutter that plagues me 10 minutes into playing this game, then . . .

    Buying ships with new patch

    thanks to playlogic tester It is just necessary to hire a free officer to do any sort of ship-swapping or buying now. No idea why it was changed, but oh well. I have a million bajillion dollars from trading chocolate so I guess I'll be okay with a few free officers.

    AI colony development

    What determines how quickly an enemy colony develops? (Other than the options at the beginning) I have been playing a game for a while now, and I noticed that some colonies (not my own, I haven't reached that stage yet) are actually deteriorating. Martinique, for example, when I press "M" key...

    Buying ships with new patch

    Well, I downloaded the patch today. I have been playing around for an hour trying to get my character to level up and I decided now that I have enough money, I'll go buy a ship. Well, I go to the shipyard and sell my lugger for a few grand, and then when I click on the ship I want to buy, the...

    Difficulty settings and crew numbers

    That's what I was looking for: realism. I'll give that a shot and see if it changes things for the better.

    Difficulty settings and crew numbers

    I think I read on here somewhere that the harder difficulty you play on, the more of a handicap that the computer has against you in crew numbers when you board enemy ships. I started this game playing at the captain level, and I didn't have much of a problem at the start, but I'm finding out...

    something curious about the corvette

    All of the ships in the game seem to be a bit over-crewed.

    Compounding skills

    I think I just answered my question. I tried to give my quartermaster a Pack Rat ability, and it didn't add anything to my ship's hold space. My character didn't have the pack rat ability. I think it might be correct to say that officer abilities don't help any, just the skill points.

    Question about ships

    I don't know much about the looks of the ships. I did notice that each shipyard offers ships of the same class with different hull points and cargo capacities. They're also different in price. Sometimes this isn't really enough to make a difference, but I have noticed differences of up to 100...
