Still looks rough.

NECROTHREAD ARIIISSEEE!

...no, they haven't added the Undead to Manowar yet. But the game has dropped a big content patch for the coming weekend, releasing dwarves and skaven and wizards and flying enemies and stomping bugs and squigs.

- Added Grey Wizards, Bright Wizards, Orc Shamans, and Grey Seers.
- Added wizard towers.

- Fixed numerous miscellaneous quest bugs, and added some more unique and randomised quests across the world.
- Added Griffons, Wyverns, and Pegasi to the game.
- Squigs!
- Added the Hellblaster Volley Gun, Bretonnian Archer Regiment, and Goblin Doomdivers.
- Added additional audio to the Captain's Mate.

- Tweaked the movement and resurfacing of the Black Leviathan.
- Character health bars turn red if your crew is attacking you, and flash white on critical hits.

Has there been much info about it lately?  Or ninja-release?

RPS had a small write-up on it about a week ago and enjoyed it.

Bought long ago in early-access. (Maybe more than a year ago?)

Saw the most recent update go out yesterday, but haven't tried it in a while. My impression with the patch notes was that it still has a lot of fairly serious bugs to be debugged. But at least the devs are constantly at work on it. Releasing it to full out of beta (or even alpha as they were still adding some significant things last patch before this one) doesn't fill me with a lot of confidence in itself, but the game even in its constantly patched state is worth looking into if you like Warhammer(esque fantasy) or want a 3-D Pirates(esque) experience, and are at least willing to consider mixing the genres.

Personally I've loved the relatively few minutes I've spent playing it. I'm just waiting for the bughunt to finish so I can get into a standup fight.

It looks really interesting.
But my GPU is overly-sensitive and apparently gets offended by the way the game handles the player shooting at other ships :P
(I really need to get a new GPU, despite their high costs)
