Has anyone been playing the Early Access? Saw a friend on Steam playing it, he said it was buggy. I didn't even know it was available yet.
I gave it a try - what can I say?
The game is very promising and without any doubt it has the potential to become the best M&B ever and ALSO the best pirate themed game ever.
But this would happen long road ahead, somewhere in 2016 maybe, when all thoughts, ideas and promises will be done...
As of now (08 October 2014) the game is barely playable at all as there are many missing scenes, quests, resourses, assets, balance issues, lots of bugs, heavy engine, etc. No way to play a game like that. BUT this is not the point in Early Access - the point is for a gamer to take a look and try Carribean, to actually see what the Devs have in mind. When I played, I adored the game, even that it is MOSTLY 40% finished (no matter what Snowbird says!). Devs consider great ideas for the game and they showed their intentions to make the best of it. We just have to wait and see
The nicest point here is that I actually made a suggestion on their discussion page on Steam about docking ships and landing on shore (two missing things as of now) and one of the Devs actually replied me, stating that Snowbird would consider adding my suggestion in the future. That is what Early Access is all about!
Please guys, give Snowbird a time to deliver what they promised. I'm sure Carribean will be great once finished (end of 2015 earliest, I mean really finished). Until then, I give my both thumbs up for Carribean - whoever wants to help, buy the game, like I did.
