Sid Meier's Pirates! App Reviews

Sid miers pirates is one of the great all time games and I was so excited to see it out for the iPhone. With regrets its been on my phone for a couple of years. I always think let me give it another shot but every time its the same old same old. The controls make this game unplayable. Everything from navigating, sword fighting, and ship battles are quirky and impossible. You will constantly go in the wrong direction, be imprisoned for losing to a lowly merchant captain because the sword fighting controls are so bad or your ship will sink in the lowliest of sea battles because the controls send you in the wrong direction. After all these years Im finally deleting this from my phone wish it were different.

Could we fix the issue of the ships going so fast in world view that you cant even hit the attack button and being able to change direction w/o discharging the cannons or changing what type of shot in battle view?
