    Capturing Towns

    I just discovered how to attacke any town, any time. March in on foot, and you'll have the choice between Leave town, Enter the town (or it it's an enemy town - Sneak into town) or Attack the town. I have a feeling that you're not meant to attack the time from sea anyway in this version, because...

    Treasure maps broken? (Possible Spoilers)

    I hope I don't encounter one of those. Maybe I already have though, it took me forever to find my sister. And I happened to stumble upon a slightly valuable treasure, one of the lost cities. Gave me 50.000 gold. So the hour I spent looking was kinda worth it.

    My small mod plan - need info.

    I also miss the individual `sea-to`-fort battle, when you choose to attack from sea, you attacked from sea, not automatically put your crewmembers on land like in this new edition. I know it's done in realtime, but I want the same interface as with the normal seabattles. That way you could...

    Treasure maps broken? (Possible Spoilers)

    You sure it's the correct Captain's Reef? Are you south east of Villa Hermosa? And I don't mean 200 nautical miles to the south east. EDIT: if it's the correct Captain's Reef, it should say so on the world map (where you sail). If not, then it's not the right one.

    Anyone feel like they have done everything?

    Ah, if you have an AMD Athlon XP2100+ it's definately your graphics card that's causing the bottleneck. And if you have an onboard soundcard too, that's causing even more slowdown. Having a Soundblaster 5.1 or something like that takes a lot of pressure of the processor, and the speed could...

    Anybody figured out dancing?

    Hmm, I wonder. What are these pirouettes? I know what a pirouette is, but I've never used these buttons (7 and 9) yet. I've always just used forward, backwards, `back-left`, `back-right`, left and right. The turn left and turn right has never been in use in my case, and I can't see how I'm...

    There is such an easy way to defeat EVERY dancing move EVER

    Hmmmm.... that is possible. I've no slowdowns, and no speed problems with my game at all. I don't need to press the key at almost the exact same time. I almost waited a whole two seconds before I hit a button, and still it's a legit keypress. Sometimes I press the wrong button and then I just...

    There is such an easy way to defeat EVERY dancing move EVER

    I don't have fast reaction times. The dancing doesn't require fast reaction times. You can be really really slow. And I'm not on a crusade. But it seems you are desperately trying to defend your cheating. Yes it is cheating. Do you think it's a playing method? Maybe Sid removes this bug, then...

    There is such an easy way to defeat EVERY dancing move EVER

    Haven't tried yet. Perhaps I will, but I rather not cheat. I'll probably try it just for fun. But if you cheat, you're a cheater. It's pure logic. If you drive a car, you're a driver. Realize that. But I don't mind cheaters, they do as they will. If that's what they want, do it. But I won't...

    NON US/UK POTC players PLEASE DO NOT install Build 12 YET

    Damn, I should have read this topic. However, if you're going to hat the Build 12 announcement thread on the forums every subcatagory, you should have this warning too.

    Nevermind that, I just realized it skipped the files I had already, and the installation is complete now.

    There is such an easy way to defeat EVERY dancing move EVER

    Ah, you mean, why play properly when you can cheat? Being a pirate and all, it seems strange not to acknowledge cheating. But there's no fun in cheating.

    Guide POTC Tech FAQ

    I have a problem with the build 12 installation. I startet it before I went to sleep, and when I came back to check on it, it had stopped at the very end of the installation and gave an error message (Could not open file F:/GAMES/POTC/.../building.xx). Starting this whole installatsion again...

    Some more i wish there was thoughts

    Why would you want to bury your treasure, and risk getting it stolen by another pirate (like you constantly steal other pirates' treasures)? Too much clipping, I agree. Shame about the `multi-ship` battles, but maybe there was once, but he found that it provided less fun and more trouble, so it...

    There is such an easy way to defeat EVERY dancing move EVER

    It's not very hard anyway... stop looking at the directional pad, just keep an eye on her hand movements. And don't forget that it follows a pattern. Even on Rogue it's not very hard. Can't see why people have difficulties with it. Haven't tried on Swashbuckler though.

    Captain Python's P! 2 Thread (Former: I'm not buying this!)

    Well, I've been completely open about me downloading pirates because I'm going to buy it the minute it comes out. Not every country in the world have got it yet, see... And, sure, you could say that there's no proof that I'd buy it either. But the I'd be really stupid to actually admit it...

    Captain Python's P! 2 Thread (Former: I'm not buying this!)

    I think we should all remember that his is more than probably just a first (in this millenia) of a series of Pirates! games from our friend Sid. I can't see him creating something entirely new at his age (how old is he now, anyway?) and he can't continue relying on Civilization. I think he NEEDS...

    I think this game is perfect the way it is. ... but it could be even `perfect-er` <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />

    Sword Fights Broken?

    One of the things I miss in the sword fighting is the ability to move back and forth of your own free will, just like the original. I enjoyed the swordfighting in the original, but the blocking was harder in that one. The swordfighting can be pretty hectic, and you'll never have time to relax...
