Congrats to Shinpseudo for getting his name in the podcast for the Operative Profile!

And to Virrago, thanks for getting it there.

That was a cool little nugget, thanks Virrago. The dude pronounced my name correctly, too

England, France, and Spain have unleashed their forces on the Caribbean. Naval officers captain massive warships through bloody engagements at sea. Freetraders charge through blockades and smuggle the war material needed to conquer the enemy's ports. Privateers raid enemy shipping, looting ships of their treasure and rival nations of their glory.

Through it all sail the Pirates. Bloody, bold, and resolute, they serve no flag and heed no king. They live free, fight hard, and obey only fate.

Blistering Naval Combat - Maneuver your ship in real time, turning one way to unleash a broadside and then cutting back to guard your damaged armor.

Savage Swashbuckling - Our swashbuckling system is something you've never seen in an MMO before.

PvP-Conquerable World - The Caribbean of 1720 is home to many dozens of ports belonging to the three great powers: Britain, France, and Spain. Each port is a valuable source of goods, equipment, and mission patrons.

Sophisticated Missions - Our mission system gives you a starring role in your own epic. Each player accumulates a personal supporting cast of NPCs, including old enemies, new friends, lost loves, and treacherous allies.

Dramatic Avatars - You don't have to look like everyone else. Our avatars are built with sixteen customizable slots. Choose hair, faces, footwear, hands, coats, hats, belts, jewelry, and much more.

Action For Every Play Style - Whether your interest is in ship combat, piracy, commercial trading, or adventure, you have a role to play, and all your adventures take place in a dramatic world of conflict and change.

The Pirates of the Burning Sea does have a monthly subscription. The fees are as follows:

• 1 month subscription: $14.99

Full access Station Access is available for a recurring monthly subscription price of $29.99/month (plus applicable sales taxes, if any).

I would make an awesome intern thank you. I think most of my coworkers would be tired of me saying "OHMAIGAWD" and "LULZ" lines all day.

And I am in LA...Hmmm...

Hey Virrago, do we have to be in San Diego for this?

I <3 Vegas. =P

New poll.

They've changed the details - again - and made a completely new poll.

Everyone vote again!

What Proc said!   NEW POLL and NEW PAGE

Virrago... please can you change the links at the top of this thread or make a new one.  We had so many people voting before, and now very phew.  They locked the old poll and created a new one... so we ALL need to vote again!

It won't be outside of the US. The cost of shipping SOE's staff members out to the UK along with food for them and then allow them all 2 days off for rest and recouperation isn't going to be something that benefits SOE financially or practically, no matter how many turn up.

 

Just incase anyone missed it, the above reason is why the chances are slim to zero of a Fan Faire being outside of the US.

Lame excuses. SOE is a global company not just US.

I don't mean to come off as an a-hole, but how is this merge going to benefit MxO?

They should do what Square did and open their online games to be bi-platform capable.

Virrago seems to have forgotten so I thought I'd help him out:

The Escapist is having a March Mayhem: Developers Showdown to parallel college basketball’s March Madness tournament. In the developers showdown 64 developers will be pitted against each other, giving gamers the ability to vote for their favorite in a multi-day, bracketed tournament.

Learn more about the tournament, and show your support for SOE by following this link to the Escapist March Mayhem details page.

I tried to be a good sport and tune in to RMC that night, you know, just for the off chance that something might actually happen.

But after the third pirate song started up, I had to turn it off. Why RMC was even allowed to dj this party, I'll never understand.

Sounded like good ideas to me... Pink Ops with bunny ear helmets... Hmmm... Rarebit... Pink sparkly top and Fluffy bunny ears please!  " />

The idea that Agents will come to slap the Agent shades off anyone who isn't a Machinist (I think that was the gist they were working toward, unless they were talking about no players can wear shades...) was fantastic and should get implemented I say.... " />

Umm... oh yeah and the advert was awesome!

Sure you can voice your opinion, but after a while it gets a bit repeated. we know your opinion, so unless you can force Rarebit to remove HJB and Mobius from those who dont deserve it and remove the new collector theres nothing you can do. You dont like it. We know it, yet we dont need to hear it over and over. Time to move on. Remebering its just a game.

What part of "I want to make sure this doesn't happen again" don't you understand?

You don't want to know what I have to say? Stop reading it.

*Sniff* No Euro love...

I submitted a few of my meager pieces months ago, and they still aren't up.
