Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
68 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The ship to ship combat is worse than in Sea Dogs, but the boarding is far better, and I think probably, due to Warband's combat and the fact that contrary to AC Black flag your crew also kills the enemy, it is probably the best ship boarding experience in existance (imho).
Gameplay

Mechanics 8/10 same as Mount & Blade Warband sword mechanics , ship mechanics can be better for use !
