Military personnel that can verify their status through a .mil e-mail address will be able to partake in an interesting promotion announced by Flying Lab Software this week. The promotion offers six months of Pirates of the Burning Sea to military personnel, however, in order to continue playing after the free six months you will still have to purchase a copy of the game.
Current subscribers who are in the military will also be able to add an additional six months to their subscription time at no cost as part of this offer. Further details on the promotion can be found here. Michael "MikeB" Bitton |

Nice idea. Too bad more game publishers don't do this. |

I signed up with this deal and have been having fun. The community is respectable and the gameplay reminds me of Sid Meiers Pirates. Granted I've only played for a day or so but as of now I am greatly enjoying myself.
Many thanks to Flying Labs for extending this gracious offer. It's gotten to the point where some MMOs have been reduced to little more than success dispensers. Don't think. Don't challenge yourself. Do as little as possible... but still be rewarded for it. Yeah.. *that's* fun. -- WSIMike |

Not only that, it's a nice little "thank you" to the troops for doing what they do for us. |

They certaibly dont do anything for me since im not american. Still, you guys really think they do this to thank the troops? Its nothing more than a publicitary trick, and one using military and wars.... seems a bit of bad taste to me

nope, i'm not... and i don't care what your pay is, you signed up for it not me... most jobs = crap .. if you can ever get a crap job, but thats besides the point, just think the game was a big let down... and find this rather amusing, thats all!

If they are this desperate to get people to play this game they might as well shut it down. How can you justify this to a paying subscriber? |

These people risk their lives for their friends and family and you can't see value in that, sure it's not YOUR country. People call Americans arrogant, which I won't disagree with a lot of, but you obviously are a little more arrogant than that.

we should give them free anything they want then right? cops too.. and firemen... your points of putting their lives on the line may be valid, but most people are gonna call the current day war BS, and not really give a shit, lost lives suck, no one is gonna downplay that, but .. gotta be out of your mind to sign up for the army with a bush in office... ANYWAYS |
