Too late!

already!

CoaS: City of Abandoned Ships, right? They say it will be like good old Sea Dogs, which is good news even if it's only half true.

yup, its City of Abandoned Ships (worst game title evarrrr, tbh). The feature list is impressive, the only letdown so far is that you have to fight giant krakens and other mythical stuff once in while, so I don´t think its a true SD successor.

Btw, here´s another very promising pirate-themed game:
East India Company

Some screens of CoAS.
I was going to ask if it uses the same engine as AOP did, but based on English uniforms and picture of armor, I've never seen anything like that in AOP. Hopefully it's not a flop like AOP was though.

Same engine, but slightly updated (AoP is Storm Engine 2.5, CoAS uses 2.8).

Hopefully it's not a flop like AOP was though.

Well, CoAS -unlike PotC or AoP- isn´t developed by Akella, but by a former russian modding team (seaward.ru), so there´s definitly hope that CoAS will be
an enjoyable (or should I say "playable"?^^) game out of the box.

Is CoAS the new game I think I saw in the old PA! forum that the devs wanted modders from PoTC to switch to and that they wouldn't be disapointed?

Exactly, but as far as I know most of the more senior modders wanted to finish
New Horizons first and then switch over to CoAS. Hopefully the content of the old forum will online again in one or two days so we can see if there´s any news on this matter.
