Building a community

Postby Captain Jack » Thu Feb 10, 2011 2:40 pm

We have been building this game for a long time now. The code behind the game is really vast. More features are coming soon and development is continuous.

Our aim here is to create a great in-depth browser game with decent graphics (some graphics improvements are also coming in-game, some already came).
We have been constantly providing support and replies to all enquiries sent to webmaster@piratesglory.com or through the contact form
We will continue doing so, trying to respond all enquiries within 24 hours.

What we have been requested many times from the players, was to get forums running for the game. Certainly, most must have wondered why we delayed such a simple feature for so long. The reasons are many but I will stand to the top 2 reasons:
1)We wanted to have integrated, customized forums. This needed a lot of work and it was constantly postponed for later. Eventually, we decided to heavily modify the popular phpBB forums and use them, rather than invent the wheel again. So far so good and we hope that the integration will work well. Every account is linked to a game account and you cannot join the forums if you do not have a game account.

2)The progress stage of the game. All past years, we were creating really basic things. The game version is only 0.1! This signifies that this game is far from a complete version. With game development being basic, we really could not afford to spend time to operate forums or hear ideas. The shape is still primitive but we hope that till the end of the month you will get a really good taste. Hopefully, by March players would have much to think about like: Voodoo Cards, Mission Types etc. This means you will be able to suggest a mission for example and later see it implemented into the game.

Slowly we will move to a more playable and better game and surely the first thing we now need is a stable, loyal and active community. We are here to hear to your suggestions and improve the game. I personally think that there is no other game with the in-depth gameplay Pirates Glory currently offers. With the forthcoming features, it will also become more playable than it is now (the top fustration is the lack of plunder targets -> this will hopefully become history soon).

The forums have been live for 2 days now and we hope that more players will be encouraged to participate. Your feedback is needed and much welcomed!

Thank you!

Are you having any trouble understanding the game so far? Any improvements you would suggest ?

It is always vital to hear what is troubling the newcomers as we are that far away from that status that we can barely even think about the current problems.
