Comment: Meh. It"s the first word that come to mind when playing this game. I mean, it"s all there, O.K graphics, Solid fighting and of course, pirates (wich are WAAAAAAAAAAY better than ninjas anyday). Unfortunately the game lacks the depth and intensity to keep a real mmo gamer satisfied. First of all, on the site I notice the big PLAY FOR FREE button, so just assume that it won"t ask me to buy something new every 2 seconds. Wrong as soon as I start up the game, I see a huge wallmart add taking up about a quarter of my screen. No problem right? Just put the game on fullscreen. No, sorry, it tells me. Turns out I meed to pay 7 bucks a month to have full screen and resolution unlocked. After grumping a bit about that, I decided there no way some wallmart add was going to bother me. Before I even play it, I decide to subscribe for a couple months, just for the heck of it. I can be so, so stupid. One month later I wanna shoot myself when I play it. First of all, though the graphics weren"t bad, wanted more. I guess drooling over age of connan was doing me no good. I know they made this game so weak computers could run it, but then again, it was the same with half life 2, and it still looks good. Having a somewhat beefy computer, I think I deserve more. The graphics worth 7 bucks a month? NO FREAKIN" WAY! Second of all, though the fighting feels solid, but it is riddled with bugs and goes screwy when fighting multiple enemys. Quests? I have to admit, cool at first but eventually, you get a quest that tells you to fight an enemy way past your level, so it forces you to grindfest. After about a month of playing ( Only because I told myself I"m paying 7 bucks a month for this) I decided to unsubscribe. After much difficulty and customer sevice guy calls, (even customer service told me the game kinda sucked) I succeded. The verry next day I bought Lost Planet: Extreme Condition from my local game retailer (EB games). I"m a happier better person without that horrendous excuse for an mmo. NOT WORTH 7 BUCKS
