Tobeman and I bought it the other day, he doesn't know but I levelled a pirate to 10 in the morning after purchasing it

. I thought it was great fun at first, but it seemed to get a bit monotonous after level 5.. but after reading some guides I may not have been playing it "correctly" :s mostly cause all i was doing was travelling around ports doing missions which were very samey (not that WoW's "Go kill 6 bears" wasn't). By the looks of thing PvE is non-existent in the game, PvP is the strong point with pirates and privateers being even more so PvP inclined (something about PvP zones for the two I think). Economy wise I'd say the game is very similar to EVE, completely player controlled and ever expanding.
Not sure if I'll keep playing, one MMO is good enough for me
