People on the street are always asking me, “What’s going on with the Career Story Arc? What’s it about? When will we get to play it? Do you use a product to get your hair like that?” Instead of answering people one at a time, I figured I’d just write a devlog and address everyone’s concerns all at once.

That’s right. Against all odds, ConCo has in fact put over 1000 missions in the game – FOR EACH NATION. There is still some polishing to do, but the content is in the game and you can play from level 1 to level 50 (which many companies would call “content complete”).

From FlyingLab:

With community members from all walks of life and a fan base that spans the globe, the Pirates of the Burning Sea community is the very definition of diverse. While we firmly believe that our diversity is one of our biggest strengths, it has also been a source of some of our community’s greatest friction.
