Quit the game. Open My Documents/Pirates of the Burning Sea/. Find the file named Prefs.xml and delete it. Then launch the game. That will restore your preferences to default and should make that window reappear.

As of January 22nd, you need one key to play. This key is usually referred to as an Activation Key or a Retail key. It comes in the retail box with your game, or is sent to you in email on 1/22 if you bought via digital download.

The Landing Party key is an optional key that was included with the preorder deal. The only thing it does is enable the parrot & swords preorder items for use after 1/22. If you have already claimed those items during the preorder period, you can keep them without a Landing Party key. It's just for new characters you make later on.

All boxes were shipped in plenty of time. People are reporting them turning up a couple days early in stores all over the country. I have no idea why Amazon is showing those delivery dates, but that's not anything we control.

We do have collision and it does depend on speed, angle, and mass. We don't apply damage to the ships to prevent its use as a griefing tactic, but a small ship can't just stop a large ship, for example.

Yes, it is.
