As far as i can tell the ingame USS Constitution is modeled after the constitution in its current (2014) state not how it was originally built, or during the war of 1812. The key differences are, the current USS Constitution has higher bulwarks, different stern decorations, and the bow has weather bulwarks. http://www.ussconstitutionmuseum.org/collections-history/faq/#appearance In 1798 she would have looked like this. http://www.shipmodel.com/models/constitution-old-ironsid note the different stern decorations , lower bulwarks, no weather bulwarks on the bow, and it has a figurehead. In 1812 she would have looked like this. http://www.modelexpo-online.com/album.asp?a=Thomsen_USS-Constitution note it no longer has a figurehead but it has different stern decorations , lower bulwarks, no weather bulwarks on the bow. Changing the ingame Constitution to an earlier state would also fix the current problem of its bow chasers firing thru the weather bulwarks. I believe most the the changes to the USS Constitution (the bow weather bulwarks, different stern, and higher side bulwarks) where done sometime after 1820. I hope the devs change the ingame constitution to the 1798 version or the 1812 version because for me it feels odd to be sailing around in a post 1820 ship. KIngEmu (ingame efalden)

I bought the Painter DLC and I was hoping to get the Sicily paint job for the USS Constitution, but only the USS United States. This confused me because I saw online (not in the DLC description, i`m not saying I didn't get what I paid for, I absolutely love the DLC and the idea behind it), Since they are basically the same ship can they not be applied to each other? Also slightly related question, what happened to the constitution? I hardly see it anymore, and apparently they're really hard to get Also also, a small suggestion for painter DLC or maybe even without it, I think itd be cool if you could paint your ship in your nations colors, it looks kinda weird using a black connie in the British Navy.

Dear @admin, Would be grateful to know when the developers are planning to release the new and updated model of USS Constitution. Looking forward to seeing their recent beautiful work applied to such a marvelous ship. Cheers--

Having been absent from the game for a bit over a month, some newly acquired free time (and a newly-acquired ship) has given me the opportunity to explore the North-Eastern stretches of the map. Apparently, the French/Swedish/Danish alliance is not supportive of exploration, and as such I was also presented with the now rare chance to PvP! I was attacked twice (in my Conny) by two separate Surprises... Thanks to [ER]Armand De La Croix and [HRE]Quios for the battles!

Hi there, I recall the developers saying that USS Constitution was due for a hull refit on her 3d model, both in terms of shape (currently a bit boxier than in the real world) and in terms of stern decorations. Any word as to when these changes will be effected? Thanks--

Hi there, I recall this coming up on the forums some time ago, but I believe it was established that USS Constitution did not carry a spritsail as her 3D model currently does. Any chance this could be addressed? Cheers--
