    be prepared for slow motion sword fights - I've installed Pirates on my wife's laptop which has a 1.8 Ghz Athlon and 64MB ATI video and the fight scenes were almost unplayable. I think that the minimum specs don't apply to fight scenes. However, sword fights are lightning fast on my Pc...

    ATI and NVIDA shaders a question and/or challenge

    3/2/5/ is the max setting with ATI 9800 Pro's as well. I've tried to force it to 4/3/6 and there is absolutely no difference, however the water looks more artificial with the forced setting.

    1280x1024 is pretty common nowadays. Graphics look horrible in 1280x960 (when objects move) and decent in 1152x864. Great gameplay and atmosphere so far, fight scenes are much better than expected!
