mod idea

[TheLastFreeMan]

How about a pirate mmorpg, like you can either chose to be a pirate, an eastener, a rogue(good pirate), or a member of the navy and you get to choose jobs such as navigator, swordsman, stuff like that.

Besides the fact that Source is not really a MMORPG engine to any extent, it also, as far as I know, doesn't really have code for handling water vehicles terribly well.

In addition, the mod team would have to pay for servers and bandwidth to host the game.

It's already coming, and it looks great. I played it at PAX, and there's nothing about it that the Source engine would really be able to do all that much better.

That game looks like loads of fun. Finally a MMORPG worth playing

It's a ton of fun. Especially when you end up these huge naval battles with a ton of other people.
