Pirates of the Burning Sea Patch a Step in the Right Direction?

The director of development for the disappointing "Pirates of the Burning Sea" recently sat down to share a few of the tidbits in the upcoming patch that is promising a host of improvements. "There were a number of changes in 1.4, but the buccaneer was definitely the big one, because with a new class you have to do new missions, career appearance items, and that sort of thing. That's all taken a lot of effort from a lot of the team. In addition to that, we have set up a lot of trial account restrictions so we can better control the abuse of trial and buddy accounts by gold spammers. We have implemented a number of things, on the back end, to help with customer support. That's an ongoing theme, because as we see more support requests, we provide more tools to make the GMs lives easier."

I was interested in seeing this game as well. In fact, so much I purchased it and played it...for about 2 months.

Same MMO crap as before. Quest, grind, kill stuff...Ship to ship combat was kinda fun. The only people I saw online were the gold spammers.....

Damn you and your something.

Played it, has potential, but sucks

Pirates of the Burning Sea reminds me a lot of Eve. It has a massive amount of potential. You can almost see how awesome the game could have been. You can almost grasp the edges of an interesting economy and combat system. You can almost see wide spread coordination and politics... but in the end, the honest truth is that the economy is crap, the combat tedious, and the politics barren. It has a great deal of potential, but it doesn't live up to any of it.

It seems that this patch add the missing substance that it lacks.
