Has Akella made any press releases regarding the subject matter or is this more or less word of mouth kind of stuff? second question being does anyone know the state of the game as it is in Russian because like mentioned previously and from my own experience the following games were very much a mess. My old old computer was able to run the game (city of ab ships) pretty good but sense upgrading a number of times it just isn't even worth downloading even with gents of fortune. With other news the guys that made mount and blade with fire and sword, snowbird studios, are working on something similar which should be pretty cool too. My thoughts on pirates ody being if there is truely this english verison and it does get release that if they release this half ass PoS that crashes a min of every 4 hrs im gonna be very pissed off and i rarely if ever get mad.
