So Pirate Galaxy is telling me that my version of Java was out of date. No problem. I preceded to update to version 7 update 9, deleted the previous version, and went back to play.
Now, it's still telling me that Java is outdated. Awesome. Everything else powered by Java is working just fine, and has been working fine all day.
I don't know if you guys have anything to do with it, or if it's just the game that's in a bad mood, but I'm just pointing it out.
Could be a problem from their end where the servers/the game is not recognising the version installed properly. ArmorGames can't help you with this as this is most likely an issue with either the servers and/or the game and they only host the game on their website.
