Honest opinion about "Pirate Party"

[Dr.Archipelago]

Overview

Pirate Party is round-based, team vs team PvP game.Main goal of each game, is to gain more point than enemy team by capturing and holding island(Frost island ; Skull/Forest Isaldn ; Castel/Desert Island.)
Each island have x amount of chest of different quality: Silver > Gold > Sapphire > Emerald.From each chest you gain some gold and exp.

With gold you can buy weapons and ships(its the most intersting thing of the game.).Weapons can be bought only after certain lvl but ships can be bought at any time(only if you have enough gold to buy one : |)

Everything good about P.P.

When game just released, i with my friend started playing and we got in different teams soo we could pvp.First thing personally i did, is exploring island.
In total there is 6 island(spawn island we dosent count), and on each island there at least 1-2 chests.Some of them you can find just by looking at island, and for other chests you need to complete obby(desert castel im looking at you.)

Now about ships, oh god bomb ship fun as hell.Exploding group of 5 people with one button, and saying before it: “Creeper, awww maaan”.Is fun.

Through all ~10 ships, people uses only next one: Rawboat(free boat) ; Sailboat ; Gunboat (the best ships for destorying ships without needing to aim) and Bomb Boat

Oh, you know about shipwrecks and debrises??Its cool mechanic! in a nutshell - when you destory ship, some of its parts became physic obejcts and you can stand on them to avoid damage from water, and when you playing on full server for 14 minutes, when you will swim to middle-island/Skull island, you will see whole sea covered in ship debrises.

Everything bad about P.P.

Low online.After yesterday hype about game, currently game have 186 players, and yes - later there will be more players, but…Its the same thing as with WoM, if you want calculate how many palyers will play this game at it max do this: [average player] * 2.5
And in the end we will have 465 player at max.Sad, but its true.

Killing people with melee weapon is full random, because even if you will pierce enemies hitbox with your sword, it will deal only 75% while he doing the same will insta-kill you.Maybe its Skill issue, but still.

Next is…Unbalanced teams, we can connect it with problem of online, but its okay playing 10vs3 players game.
Fair?No.
Is it fun to kill half of the team with one bomb boat because they camp one island?YES

Conclusion

Pirate Party is fun, but you get bored of it really fast.
Its all what i can say.

You forgot the laggy part

[thingyy]

get better pc

[anon32468667]

I run it at 60fps no problem it just spikes every so often, and I know others experience this too

[Hoover]

We expected a round-based pvp party game. What did we get? a round-based pvp party game. The game is fine, it’s not good, it’s not bad either. It’s an okay game, you play it for an hour if you’re bored and then go do something else

my thoughts on pirate party

good:

• it’s fun

bad:

• i suck at it

[Eapple]

I think a large part of the issue with Pirate Party that I personally saw, was how the players were spread too thinly. There are a surprising handful of islands, and a good bit of space between them. Meanwhile, the server limit is only 30 players (understandable for performance reasons).

The volume of players in any given space is too low for the action to be interesting. Running into 1v1 or 2v2 skirmishes every once in a while, is not what I expected from this game. Galleons is a classic partly because of the scale of action.

Large ships with multiple crew going toe to toe, cannon-fire flying in multiple directions, boarding, large destruction. These aspects of what made Galleons such a good pirate game are mostly lacking in PP.

If the game were only ship-to-ship combat, then the most interesting, action-intensive, eye-catching part of the game would really shine. However, adding island-capturing and repetitive land combat on top of it, stretches the action too much. The map may be too large for its own good.

I like a lot about it except the weapon scaling. It’s almost impossible to kill the good people because they have the most OP weapons. It was very fun the first couple hours because everyone was new and if you died oh well. It wasn’t too bad because you could make up for it by killing someone else. But now it’s just OP people you can’t kill with bomb boat trollers (Which is much less of a problem IMO) not letting you close to an island.
But despite all of that. I really enjoy the game. The mechanics, graphics, sounds, is honestly some of my most favorite parts about the game.

[twoleggedabomination]

it feels like a rushed game

[Perf]

i hate how the starter gun/sword is fuckin garbage,

[Annihilator_of_Gold]

Not really it’s garbage. Just that all the OP weapons MAKE it garbage.

[Annihilator_of_Gold]

It’s really well made but also poorly scaled at the same time if it makes sense.

[Flayire]

P.P. still having the bad problems even if you have a better pc

[Pox]

probably because it is.

Vetex said he wasn’t going to update it and just did it out of boredom

[Pox]

Oh wait that’s june not july.

[Xvental]

would’ve been cool to see a game with galleons esc ship combat based around a whole crew piloting and firing cannons, aswell as more traditional sword fighting by having a lower player speed. it’s not a bad game by any means, i just got the wrong impression looking at the sneak peaks and such. overall 6/10. it’s not a game that’s gonna blow away any and all expectations, but it’s not supposed to be.
