Free Trials have arrived for Pirates of the Burning Sea!

**TheUnknownShadow**

Yeah, I know you don't like people coming back to this neck of the woods but this is SOE stuff, so it's allowed SMILEY

Today we are unveiling our new Free Trial program, which allows anyone to give Pirates of the Burning Sea a try for 14 days without paying us a penny! Tell your friends, loved ones, work colleagues, tennis partners and people you meet at the supermarket!

You can access the key request page by clicking here. You'll be asked to enter your email address, and then a special URL will be sent to you that will allow you to claim your key.

Please note that these keys will only work with new Pirates of the Burning Sea accounts; Station Access accounts and existing Pirates of the Burning Sea accounts are not eligible.

Once the trial period is over, you will need to purchase a copy of the game and choose a subscription plan to continue playing. Any characters you create during the trial period will be carried over once you start subscribing.

As with any new system, there's a chance that there might be a couple of bugs that we've yet to track down and exterminate. If you happen to find one, please let us know by filing a support ticket!

That's fantastic.

EDIT: Hmm, I recall the posts here being similar to those I normally see.

Mine wasn't spam. I merely expressed sentiment and bid them goodbye.

You are right... it wasn't spam... it was more of a troll. Either way... it wasn't very nice.

'Not being nice' doesn't break the EULA. 'Excessive negativity' does if that's what you're going for, and we can all agree that two words cannot be deemed excessive.

Mod4 is acting upon nothing but their interpretation of my inflection, which is entirely subjective. Therefore, a murky subtext cannot - by definition - be subject to moderation based on rigid guidelines.

I'm not trying to get in anyone's face, but it's the principle.

Edit: Mod4, rather.

Actually, it does

I wrote a big ol' post with how what I posted met none of those requirements, but there's really no point arguing.

Just let it be known that I vehemently disagree.

Great. Bye.

What has changed that I might want to try this game again, because last time I played it wasnt worth the money.

My thoughts exactly. I had a lot of hope for the game, but after playing through beta, I felt it was pushed out far, far too early.

I was one of the original beta members back during freinds and family phase I dont know how much this game has changed over the years but it reminded me of age of empires with better graphics and more bugs.

I may give it a shot it was fun in a wierd kind of way back than Im sure its changed alot hopefully for the better.

Does that mean we get to go into other games' forums and pimp for MxO?

If so, I might have found my new hobby ...
