Pirates! patched

Though Sid Meier's Pirates! was released to critical acclaim last November, some minor gameplay issues took to some cyber-seafarers like scurvy. Developer Firaxis is dishing out some virtual vitamin C in the form of a 6.7MB patch that fixes several issues in the PC game. The fixes span several aspects of the game, including issues dealing with purchasing wares, adjusting treasure-map camera angles, and assigning appropriate in-game messages.
