OK, maybe it's just me, but I gotta say I really love it when the crew marches back on to the ship and you watch them board it. OK, so maybe I'm being dorky, but I like it lol. And no, this is not some teenager writing this. I am a 56 year-old man who loves this game LMAO. I'm disabled so it provides many hours of just pure fun and enjoyment. Unfortunately, you can only do it if you landed your ship on solid rock, like the 2 narrow strips down at Trinidad where it's all rocky mountain. If you land your ship on sand then when you return to your ship, which I do just for the realism aspect of it, it wont-work and you have to hit the 5 key to get back on board, but if you land on rock like at Trinidad, when you go down to the ship, don't hit the number 5 hit the bottom choice and you see them march onto the ship with the Captain standing there until his entire crew is aboard. Geeky or not I just like it lol. |

You said,

I landed on the rocky point west of Trinidad city, but when I tried what you said I was unsuccessful.
What version of the game are you playing (PC, X_box, other)?
What do you mean by 'hit the bottom choice'? |

Not exactly sure what you mean by what version. I don't have a CD that I use. I bought the game on Steam and that's how I play. When I land on the Rocky part West of Trinidad what happens is when I send my guys back to my ship I am offered 2 choices. One says return to ship and the other one says turn about and head inland. I choose the turn about and head inland and they walk on the ship by themselves. I used my Galaxy cell phone and made a little video showing it, but I don't know how to post a video here. I don't even know if it's possible. If you would like to send me a private message on twitter I will send you the video on there. I am @flushhdraw on Twitter.

If you bought the game on steam you're using the PC version. I now understand what you mean by the two choices.
No need to make a video.
Thanks for the clarification. |
