Join one of the four loyalties (Pirate, English, French, or Spanish). Pirates of the Burning Sea is an MMORPG featuring high seas action and adventure in a bold world of pirates and plunder. Set against the backdrop of the New World of the 18th Century, players can choose one of three nations - England, France or Spain - or choose the role of a Pirate and battle it out for glory and power.

About this product

Product Information

Pirates of the Burning Sea is a persistent-world RPG set within the turbulent Caribbean during 1720. Players begin their seafaring career as a swashbuckling pirate from the organized "Brethren of the Coast" or as a citizen from the three warring nations of England, France, or Spain. No matter which faction is selected, players will set sail as a ship captain with the opportunity to engage rival nations and pirates in naval combat. Player-versus-player encounters are supported, and characters can specialize in four different professions: naval officer, free trader, privateer, and pirate.

Traveling by ship is accomplished using the traditional directional keys on the keyboard, with variable wind playing a key factor in movement. Once a player's ship approaches a target, the ensuing battle will take place in an instanced area isolated from the real-time world. Players will then be able to steer their ship, raise or lower its sails, and fire cannons to reduce the rival vessel's armor. Damaged ships can be sunk, boarded to engage its captain and crew in swordplay, or captured by those of the "pirate persuasion."

While ship-to-ship combat is an important part of the action, players are also free to explore their surroundings on foot. Character progression involves earning experience through swordfights, naval combat, and by completing quests on land and at sea. Players can explore ancient ruins, visit bustling towns, attack fortresses, and team up with others to engage in full-scale raids to conquer (or defend) one of the game's 100-plus ports on behalf of their nation. The player-driven economy involves choosing which production goods to specialize in, then building the structures to manufacture them. Players can also design their own sails, flags, and even ships, with the help and support of the in-game community.

Pirates of the Burning Sea
Pirates of The Burning Sea has a lot to offer It's a huge MMORPG, allowing you a great deal of freedom , customisation of your character and ship. PotBS is however a little difficult ,getting into. I've played every major MMORPG out there, and a lot of lesser known ones, I can't say I'm very happy with the tutorial section, its a really steep learning curve . One of the earliest missions (was lvl 6) asked me to to to Port Royale ,only to be waylaid by pirates halfway there, they being lvl 40 . Alot of reading , alot of work to get into this game I think, but when you do it's a rewarding experience, it offers something unique as opposed to all the fantasy themed games out there . I can recommend this easily , if you're into MMORGs and Pirates . Many new to the genre would be able to enjoy this ,but again I at least, thought it a little difficult getting intoRead full review

Fun and well rounded, but is lacking in some parts.
Graphics and game play are great, I chose the life of a pirate (rather than the French, Spanish or English.) The quests aren't too repetitive and everything is a grind, but you don't realize it as much as with other MMO's (looking at you WoW.) The downside: Laggy, Slow start-up (has to initialize for a while, then scan all of your files), not too many actual players are online either..I found myself sailing for 45 minutes without seeing a single person (however there are those that chat in the server, so they are out there lol.) Overall, I'm glad I got it and can see myself playing for quite a while.

Life at sea, piracy and age of sail
In 2004 I was eager to play a game that involved having control over a ship, from A to Z, and to blast some cannon balls into my enemy's vessel. In 2005 I discovered pirates of the burning seas. I had to wait till the end of 2007 to actually play this game as a beta tester. This one game got me hooked like I never did! Oh boy! The wait paid off and this title, although a niche game, is definatly a must-have for anyone who loves the age of sail, pirates, naval combat, player-driven economy and active guilds. Quick to learn, hard to master, you play several ships over a huge map that has about 100 ports. You'll soon find yourself wanting more spare-time to play this game. If like me you don't like RPG a lot, this game has something for you! I'm converted to being a British merchant now :)

Pirates of the Burning Sea Strategy Guide
I recently bought the pc game, "Pirates of the Burning Sea" This is a massive multi-player online only game. Needless to say the documentation that comes with the game leaves alot to be desired when trying to learn this vast imersive world of pirates, rum and skullduggery. With this strategy guide a player can reference different ship types, pirate traits and even learn a little about the economy of the Caribean (circa 1700's) I can almost guarantee that you will save yourself some headache and heartaches with this guide. If you are looking for game cheats I suggest you look somewhere else, this is simply a well laid out and informative "Guide" to help you and your loyal crew survive the warm shark infested waters of the Caribean Sea.

Pirates of the burning sea
I really like this game. But, anyone that is thinking bout buyuing it had better like some serious strategy playing. This game is not an easy one to learn how to play. Graphics are great you get great updates with new ships and missions pvp battle is intense. Took me a month to learn all the controls and how they work. It has an in game ebay auction ran tottally by the players. Overall this game is really really cool!!:)
