Flying Lab Software was released the first content patch for their booty plundering MMO, Pirates of the Burning Sea. This new patch contains a tonne of fixes, changes and additions to the game all of which can be found on the Pirates of the Burning Sea customer support forum. The changes stretch across the board to cover skills, ships, outfitting, combat and many others. It should be noted that these myriad changes are currently only available for North American and European players. All the rest of you salty dogs will have to wait just a bit longer.

I'm a big PotBS fan. it isnt a traditional grind for uber gear MMO, it takes more tactical skill. This game isn't for everyone but if 1720 naval combat sounds like fun, I suggest trying it out.

I played the Beta and was lotsa fun. No idea what go wrong. From the forums at mmorpg seems that everything that can go wrong (PvP mix with PvE, economy, etc..) has failed here. That is something strange, because, hell.. that one was a really cool game!. I hope these patch add the fun that was killed somehow on release :D

I found PotBS boring. It's a shallow version of EVE.

my vote for funniest patch description ever:
"Port Royal: There was an NPC with her hand interpenetrating her dress. No more dress = no more problem."

To be honest...I didn't even know this game came out already.

I kinda lost interest in this game once I saw there was no trial available.. I'm not going to just buy a year subscription for an MMO..

I can tell you've been waiting for a long time for a pirate game to get patched just so you could use that headline and picture.

Giggity @ the headline
I'm curious about this MMO... but LotRO is just so good it takes up too much of my time.

Shouldn't the patch come later...when they find out bugs. What if you have to patch the patch...
