Game activities for this event include a search for a gold doubloon that starts on the official site and sees additional clues posted to the MMO’s social media and forums, while the Arena Commander module brings back Pirate Swarm mode. CIG is also hosting a community contest that challenges players to make a wanted poster of their character, while the cash shop is loaded down with pirate-styled ship paints and starter bundle sales, as is ever the case for events from the game.
In otherSC news,the most recent roadmap update calls attention to new missions arriving in a later patch for alpha 4.10 that will let players take up hauling, mining, and combat activities to help Orison recover, while alpha 4.11 continues to work on the planet Nyx III and a new electricity-firing assault rifle. Incidentally, the post further points out that this build has been shifted to sometime in the fourth quarter of this year.
