Beta signup for Pirates of the Burning

Cool! A pirate MMORPG :)

(Seattle, Sep. 19) Flying Lab Software announced today that in honor of Talk Like A Pirate Day they are opening registration for gamers who want to participate in the upcoming beta test program for Pirates of the Burning Sea, a new massively multiplayer online computer game. Later this fall, approved beta test applicants will join Flying Lab online to exhaustively playtest the game and get it ready for launch this winter.

Set in the Caribbean in 1720, Pirates of the Burning Sea is a game of naval combat and conquest. Pirates, navy officers, and adventurers explore a world of danger, glory, and intrigue, fighting it out in real-time tactical naval battles. Every player is the captain of a ship right from the start, facing the challenges of a region in conflict. Britain, France, Spain, and the pirates go to war over the ports of their rivals in a strategic server-wide competition while individual players pursue their own destinies.

Online gaming sites Gamespot and IGN recently previewed the game, with Gamespot noting "it's the naval combat in Pirates of the Burning Sea that makes it vastly different from that of most online role-playing games" while IGN hailed it as "one of the bolder moves I've seen in the MMO world."

To sign up for the beta test program, gamers can go to:

1.10 How will the game be distributed?
We are using Valve's new Steam technology to distribute the game entirely online. There will be no retail box in stores. Steam handles purchasing, subscriptions, logins, progressive content downloads, and upgrades. Go to http://www.steampowered.com for more information.

HEHE! I love Valve :)
