<a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/voyage-century"><em>Voyage Century</em></a> has been around for four years now, and the dev team is always searching for new ways to freshen up the free-to-play nautical title. To that end, the latest game update includes the isle of Crete, which <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/igg">IGG</a> calls a "primary instance."<br />
<br />
Accessing Crete requires players to be sea battle level 15 and class level 15. Once these requirements are met, it's a matter of navigating to the Straight and preparing for three waves of pirate forces. The baddies include Gibraltar pirate flagships and North Sea pirate flagships, both of which will challenge high-level players as well as lower-level types who want to advance quickly by doing the daily quest and defeating the three bosses.<br />
<br />
There's a fair bit of incentive to run the instance due to its loot drops as well, and enterprising captains have a chance to snag buckshot cannon and dartling cannon drops, not to mention rare gold and high-grade forging materials.<br />

With <a href="http://soe.com">Sony Online Entertainment's</a> <a href="http://burningsea.com"><em>Pirates of the Burning Sea</em></a> down for the proverbial count, nautically inclined gamers are likely looking for smoother waters to sail. <a href="http://igg.com">IGG's</a> <a href="http://vc.igg.com"><em>Voyage Century Online</em></a> may be just what the doctor ordered, and the free-to-play publisher has just issued a new press release detailing the game's naval battle mechanics.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/voyage-century"><em>Voyage Century</em></a> features three types of naval wars: broadside battles, ramming battles, and boarding party battles. Broadsides require a certain amount of control and accuracy, whereas ramming and boarding party skirmishes are all about your sailors' equipment and your captain's fighting skills.<br />
<br />
Port towns also offer conflict opportunities for <em>Voyage Century</em> players, and more than 40 of the cities are constantly being attacked by players bent on conquest and resource domination. If any of that tickles your fancy, plot a course to the official <em>Voyage Century</em> website, where you can <a href="http://vc.igg.com">learn about the game</a> as well as download it.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2011/05/13/voyage-century-online-naval-battles-detailed/">Voyage Century Online naval battles detailed</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Fri, 13 May 2011 14:00:00 EST.

It's that time of year again -- Thanksgiving is tomorrow and all things turkey related have invaded the MMO world: hunting turkeys, eating turkeys, exchanging turkey parts for rewards, wielding turkey weapons, and even wearing turkeys on your head. Sending yourself into a tryptophan coma isn't the only thing to do, though. You'll find some non-turkey related PvP here and there, opportunities to spread Thanksgiving blessings, and even some new content. And of course, Thanksgiving bonuses, treats, and souvenirs are everywhere. Follow along after the jump for a look at what's going on for Thanksgiving.<p><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/11/25/massivelys-thanksgiving-2009-mmo-wrapup/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Massively's Thanksgiving 2009 MMO wrapup</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/11/25/massivelys-thanksgiving-2009-mmo-wrapup/">Massively's Thanksgiving 2009 MMO wrapup</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Wed, 25 Nov 2009 16:00:00 EST.
