Number of different T-Shirt designs in the game: Five

The art book for the game features a full Kraken with a body.
The game features Kraken arms.
The art book also features more instruments than what is in the game.
A team of 180 developers and after four years this is the result. It's just sad, because the game is great.
They do need to start pumping out the cosmetics, starting with the 3 month update. If I'm going to play a game of digital dress-up, I want to look fabulous.
All they need to do to finish off the Real store vs. Game store disparity is to add some reasonably priced decals for your real life car or bike.

@x1-two there will be more when you get to legendary pirate stuff i think
I doubt it. And I doubt even more that you will see a lot of pirate legends in your game at all over the next year (I can see 1 % of the player base becoming a legend, most will stop way before that). Having content in the game for 10.000 players hidden behind a 500 hour grind is like not having that content at all. I would not even be surprised if it isn't even possible to get any reward for 50 - 50 - 50 yet, Rare said they expect it to happen weeks after launch, so it possibly got cut for launch.

“I think” that’s all we heard prior to launch from everyone who was defending the content. They though Rare had more they’ve been keeping a secret for us at launch... sigh.

@x1-two anyone that didn't expect this is blind. from the very start is was made VERY clear that most of the efforts of this team were put into marketing. it's a well known fact that a game doesn't need to be good to make money.
True. But then what did those 180 people do for four years (granted, it was only 20 at the beginning)? The art department came up with one enemy type and four clothing sets (in two colour variations each). If I came up with that to show for after being paid for four years I would get fired on the spot. I would get fired if I would take more than a month for that amount of content.
@x1-two yes but how many of those people are actually devs? with the amount of videos and other c**p they put out i wouldn't be surprised if half the team was marketing. you gotta figure a good portion are also in executive positions which we all knows means they really don't do much of anything but collect a salary
