Cool.  We should hook up on the same server to dominate the seas.  When it comes out.  Whenever that may be.

I was thinking of going French for my first toon.  I figure half the people will be pirates, 3/4's of the rest will be Brits, what's leftover will go into the Spanish.  I figure French will have the least amount of players, so I'll go French maybe.  I don't know.  French or Pirate.  Or maybe Brits.  Depends on if any race, er nation, gets an advantage I want.

I applied for beta, never heard anything back.  I didn't expect to get in, though, as "computer troubleshooting" isn't my strongsuit.

I check the forums about once a week or so to see if they've got a release date, I'll go check them later today if ya sent a PM.

Can't wait to meet my first Jak Sparr0w, or blakkbrd,, etc.  :)

Release date is set for January 22, 2008.  woot.

If you pre-order, you get to begin playing two weeks before that.

Looks like I might have to pre-order this game.

any reviews?

lots of rumor of an exodus from "another game" to this one when it kicks off... wondering if its worth another sub/time sink?

The sea combat seems pretty cool, avatar combat seems pretty rudimentary like it was an afterthought.  Sea combat is cool, but takes a while (10-15 mins or so), and doesn't seem like the reward is worth the time.  But that's prolly becasue I'm just a noob and am saber dancing from way downtown.  Not sure yet how much I can get up close and boogey down, you know.  Not sure how costly a "lot of damage to my ships" is, and how that impacts my economy.  So far, I haven't played much in the beta.  Prolly gonna play more this weekend.

Doing the open beta kinda turned me off, no reviews here.

That, and a couple of WITP campaigns are taking all my game time.
