Why do they make ye start over? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" /> Maybe these are bugs? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />

Fred Bob twice reach dead ends in the Peter Blood Quest. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />

First time, Fred Bob forgot to loot a dead body for the infamous "weapons bundle". Apparently, if ye be leavin' de house without them, ye be hosed! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />

Second time, Fred Bob be careful an' looted the dead body for the "weapons bundle". However, this time Winterwood ain't no where to be found, so Dyke cannot be recruited, therefore the quest cain't go forward! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":c" border="0" alt="mad.gif" />

Do the Developers be thinking this be a fun way to play a game? <img src="http://forum.piratesahoy.net//style_emoticons/default/thwalkplank.gif" border="0" class="linked-image" />

Sheesh! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mybad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":facepalm" border="0" alt="mybad.gif" />

Oooo, let's keep reloadin' saves until it be working the way we want it! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" />

Aye Fred Bob.. I had some dead ends with the Peter Blood aswell. Especially at the part where you gotta take over the Cinco Liagas. Plus the nightmare of trying to kill your opponents in boarding battle. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ko.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":ko" border="0" alt="ko.gif" />

It is recommended that you save alot when doing quests.. because this ain't no Oblivion nor Sparta. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/no.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":no" border="0" alt="no.gif" /> This IS madness. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

No problems and bugs.
Barbados is already aware of the breakout. For breakout you have limited time. Read carefully dialogues.
 
Update: Third time be de charm! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" /> Fred Bob finally be managin' tew git all 3 men recruited AND git de weapons AND all de money needed! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mybad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":facepalm" border="0" alt="mybad.gif" />

First time de weapons slipped by without gettin' looted! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />

Second time de feller Dr. Blood be supposed tew kill ne'er showed up in either place! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/huh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":huh" border="0" alt="huh.gif" />

Third time Fred Bob be doin' de ring quest fer Farrell instead o' dealin' wid de Weaponsmith! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/onya.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="onya.gif" />

We kin surely be a splittin' hairs o'er whether or not deadend quest branches be constitutin' "broken" quests or not, but reloadin' until ye gits it right ain't exactly be Fred Bob's idea o' an enjoyable way tew advance in de game! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/poet.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":hmm" border="0" alt="poet.gif" />

Now Fred Bob's got ol' Dr. Blood racin' away from Barbados wid one puny but tenacious ship in hot pursuit! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/pirate3.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p2" border="0" alt="pirate3.gif" />

You do realize if Winterwood is in the brothel, he's in the <i>upstairs</i> room... right?

Aye, matey! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/huh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":huh" border="0" alt="huh.gif" />

He weren't in either de tavern or de brothel, so the quest, that time, could not be completed! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mybad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":facepalm" border="0" alt="mybad.gif" />
 
Odd. I replayed that quest several times and never had that problem.
 
The second time, de dead man with de weapons was out o' camera view, so Fred Bob did know there be a corpse in the room until it be too late! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" /> Fred Bob be thinkin' de corpse should remain until it be looted! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />
 
I've just restarted playing as Peter Blood..
I have a problem with Nettle (the one who supposed to buy the sloop) not being in the Tavern..
He's in the Plantation, so I talked to him there, but the Dialog to buy the Sloop didn't show up, so I can't continue the quest..
Did anyone ever have this problem..?
