Rise of Piracy

yes

Although its a promising game it has huge amount of bugs. For example, after a war you fought for 20 minutes you can see that there is a bug and it doesn't get fixed so your only option is to close and reopen the game and continue playing as if you didn't won that war

It's basically a sandbox pirate fashion strategy game. You can directly control your flagship in combat, although I find it easier managing all of my boats top down usually. The ships and units generally do what I want, including fire a direct line and accidentally hitting friendlies if I'm not paying attention, which is good to know they absolutely will follow my orders if possible. I am a massive fan of capturing ships mid battle or to be able to just bombard an island I'm invading before sending in the ground troops to clear it out. It's true there isn't a lot of content right now, but I have a lot of fun with what there is and I can already do a lot that many other Caribbean pirate fashion games don't give me a lot of freedom to do. The faction diversity is also a massive positive for me, and I'm allowed to join one I found out, help expand their borders. I'm in love with this project despite the looks. * If you play games for graphics, this isn't the most impressive. * If you play games for their diverse content, it's brand new to early access, not a lot there yet. * If you play games for freedom of choice or sandbox, this is a good experience. * If you play games for open worlds with room to explore, there's a big map just for you, and they are working on another to jump on as well from what I can gather. What I want to see? Customizable crew or ship aesthetics, especially if I'm starting a "rebel colony" playthrough or joining a faction with its own uniforms. The make your own flag thing is great, I already started editing and uploading for that, I just want other aesthetics to go with it now. Also, let me upload my own captain pictures or add more. I wanna be that "bored nobleman" with a gunboat.

Granted I haven't played a ton but I do like the concepts and the mechanics of the game so far. The fact that you can naval islands is a very cool and unique concept. I also like the option of managing your crew during island invasions and/or your fleet of ships in first person as well as in RTS-type of mode and you can switch back and forth seamlessly. Last but not least, the developer is super friendly and active in both the development of the game and engaging with the community alike.

Wow. Ich hab noch nicht viel gespielt, aber ich bin jetzt schon sowas von überzeugt. Das ist genau mein Ding. Ein Piraten-Sanbox das Elemente von Piratenspielen wie Sid Meiers Pirates heranbringt und von anderen spielen, die ich sehr gerne spiele. Einer der Reviewer hat es mit Mount&Blade verglichen. Ehrlichgesagt finde ich das garnicht mal weit hergeholt. Wer also solche Games mag, der ist hier sehr gut aufgehoben! Natürlich ist es lange nicht Perfekt, aber für ein Early Access Game und nem 1-Mann-Projekt ist das großartig!

Its Fun and theres nothing like a gun line of 5 man o wars Trust

fun game great potensial
