VMK Vs. Pirates Online

When it comes to limited chat, VMK definitely takes the ### cake.

Or you can use it to only play games or quests. There's always tons of guest made quests or games going on. Or you can just be a trader in the game.

With the exception of guest-made quests and trading, I could easily argue that you can do all of those things on Pirates.

Mrgoopy, when I sign on there is no lag.

Yeah you have to change your screen resolution size. I don't know what you're running but the numbers have to be smaller for it to fit.

I have to agree with Claw.
VMK seemed like a wonderful idea when it first opened, but it changed. The goal does seem to be to acquire as much as possible, and learn to not speak proper English, (as if this wasn't a big enough problem without VMK).

Pirates Online gives you real quests and real opportunities to actually talk and make friends. I realize the limited chat in VMK is to protect small children, but for anyone else it's extremely limited. And when you look around in Pirates, you can feel like you are in the movie, because the island depictions are that good. It's still new and has it's bugs, but I'd really rather spend my time in Pirates these day.

VMK is just so frustrating.
What I would like better than both the games would be a melding of the elements, the intense graphics of Pirates set in Disney Parks. I would never leave!
