Compass Points & Other Updates

We hope you're enjoying the latest game updates, exploring the incredible new cave environments and working your way to Level 50! But we've made many improvements to the game and want to explain some of these new features you may have not noticed:

Compass Improvements

- In response to players who sometimes find themselves lost in the Caribbean we've improved the Compass. Now the Compass is now fixed on land, while it rotates when you're at sea. We did this so Pirates can find their current location and plot a path easier when using the island and cave mini-maps (hold the F8 key to display mini-maps). To change the Compass settings, click Options on the Pirate selection screen (or press F7 in-game and select Game Options), then click Interface. Here you can change your Compass settings so it will rotate with the camera on land or sea. The choice is yours!

Change your compass settings from the Interface Option

Weapons Skill Increases

- Weapons are now mastered at Level 30, but once you reach that level Pirates can still earn reputation towards their overall Notoriety meter.

New Screenshot Location

- Taking a screenshot of your adventure? You'll now find your screenshot stored in a Pirates Directory sub folder called 'Screenshots.'
