Anyone got the English EU copy?

[BootstrapBill]

I am still waiting for my copy from play.com <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />

Is it much better than POTC? Also, are there supernatural elements in the game, like Ghost ships etc?

Thanks,
Gian

a Great Game. Although it's few glitches i give it 8/10 eight of ten,
you will have many hours of gameplay.
Tip: install the Russian mod K9 The game will be much better

The Good <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="me.gif" />
+ It takes long time to get up realy high in level (i like long play and no xp chap)
+ The sailing and the sea is better then potc
+ Lots of missions, escorting ships, transfer passenger to, transport cargo, and on and on....
+ the swordfights
+boardings
+ take colonys
+ build up colony
+ easy to make mods
+ easy to add mods

The Bad <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />
- No ghost ships or skeleton , i miss the skeletons voice "Look at that houuumann..!"
- the al (Ai ?) in the game is stupido.
- you cant go into the jungle and explore it
- the story line in the game isnt realy much to talk about,,, to short and not much to do
- There is weapons in the game not added to the leveled list or traders and you cant find em
"( they couldnt make icons for them?)" such as gunblades,
look in inititems.c
//Gunblades
- a lot of stuff from potc is left in the game not used
- a lot of old codes crap leftout from potc bugging out the game
Error.log cant find, cant load, missing texture, cant create class lighter, cant load .tx, and on and on

And the Ugly
the models of characters could have more polygons it is "2006" you noo..
and rounder <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/piratesing.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="piratesing.gif" /> boobs on the girls (for reference look at better bodies for the elderscrolls Morrowind)
**********

Yeap ordered mine fine amazon.com the other day... should have it sometime next week baring a storm on the high seas sinking my chinease import boat with meh copy on board! Looking forward to playing it, modding it... methinks that with there improvements it will be the better platform to mod off of... but I spose I'll just have to wait and see.

Sad to hear the AI is pathetic... is it contained in its own file of reactions or ai.c... or is it just hap-hazardly strewn throughout the code?

I just got it today and from what I have seen so far I will probably stick with potc with the build for now untill some patches and mods come out.

My main problems with the game:

Very high speed because of my high end system. (everything moves way too fast and it can be hard to do some stuff)
Even with encounters on low getting attacked by pirates every few seconds and sometimes even immediately after a previous fight. (I have decided to start out as a merchant and not a pirate hunter.)
Not being able to change the land movement controls to the directional pad. (I can for the sea movement controls)
Not being able to change the world map controls
the AI is stupid
Not being able to explore the islands like in POTC. (It gave a lot of variety so that you didn't have to just be on the ship mosat of the time with short runs into towns for trading or quests)


PS. I am going to try something that might reduce the speed of the game.
