11 Feb Server Rollback due to Water Drop.
Diceman replied to Ink's topic in News Announcements & Important discussions
Thank you very much admin!!! -
Same here. Cannot join war server. Tried 5 times. Stuck on loading screen. Also experienced wicked bad ping since patch 31. 123- 2100 ping. Multiple kicks from game last night while trying to help screen pirates from their exploit PB at St Marys.

Honestly, idk if player base is up or down... I don’t have those stats. I do know that I got offline like 5 minutes ago and during my 3 hr play session 3 dudes in nation chat said they are just back into game (all rear admirals btw) wowing about how different the game seems... One, I had an extended chat with giving assistance... I’m not seeing this lack of PvP... all I have to do is leave Cton and away we go... My most recent video on YouTube, our guy didn’t even make out of the harbor mouth before he got tagged by a couple French... It took the first ten minutes just to get out of the harbor entrance choke point to get room to maneuver... fun fight btw!! You used to be US, right? If you’re having trouble finding PvP you need to comeback... we got a rotation of French, Pirates, and Russians here... As for the Steam reviews. I look at those with a degree of mistrust. They strike me like the mainstream media with their Russian collusion talking points... which all turned out to be lies!! Kinda like the dude on YouTube who did the dirty devs videos and had no real earthly idea how the game works... just barfing up a bunch of talking points he was fed by butthurt players... I mean the dude quoted Lord Vicious... lol!! I will continue to play and I will continue to buy DLC I like ...especially the USS President (you listening Devs?? )

That’s your OPINION... You provided no facts, just general broad statements that you think proved your argument. There are 100s of reasons why people quit. I say the Econ was more damaged by restricting what crafters could make with barriers like permits, combat medals, and victory marks... As a solo crafter, my ability to craft big ships was crippled when those were introduced. I sold on the open market at far more fair prices to the lowly pubs in the game. No more after all the restrictions were put in place. I had to adjust my crafting to match the new rules... part of the game. Those that couldn’t adjust... quit. I never put a ship up for sale that didn’t sell because of DLC. Thats just my opinion though...

YES to wiping all XP! However the devs already promised that would be safe... the butthurt on here would be epic, so I don’t see that happening. Too bad. No to making game fair. Life isn’t. As a solo under the current rules... I’ll probably never get into the big ships, oh well, too bad for me. I adjusted my gameplay. But my mission when game goes live is too build and sell the biggest best possible ships to the unwashed masses of my nation, not just a certain few in a clan... Your argument actually supports mine about removing all these special requirements for permits. Make permits available to ALL, then you could craft/purchase bigger better crafted ships than the DLC and that coupled with your obvious superior skill would defeat all DLC, Even the mighty Rattisvan... Are you saying that you in a oak/oak Bellona couldn’t handle a Ratt? Would you need a Bucc or a first rate? Wood selection might not be the problem... Of course DLC makes for more PvP... More noob casual one night a week guys sailing around looking for trouble??? DLC hurting this game is FAKE NEWS!!!! Why last night I bought the Hermione just out of spite to those barfing out that garbage... Keep it up and I’ll buy the Ratt... I’ll do it... Rare woods? Where are the Big clans camped?? More than likely that’s where the rare woods be... Limit your search to those ports, it’ll take less time than you think... It won’t be a secret long.

One other point... You hit on the real problem regarding economy... Restrictions regarding building of ships is what is REALLY hurting economy. The requirement for permits that also require special medals or victory marks or whatever... THAT is killing ship building because only a certain few will obtain those special items... Solo players and small clans struggle mightily to obtain those things, then add to that the rare woods issue, now a large part of the server is setup to fail from the start!!! If these people never get the chance to build bigger ships they’ll never win, never get medals, never get notes and eventually quit. Permits should be available to all. Go ahead and make them expensive but they should be available to ALL in this game. Again I have no problem with rare woods. It’s used to drive war. I do have problems with restrictions on crafters to build ships.

I never said DLCs were necessary. They do give the casual player an opportunity to play without having to do a huge grind. More players playing = more PvP. That is not a bad thing considering that there is a giant number of post on these forums moaning about a lack of PvP. The Devs give a solution that makes more PvP likely and you still complain. Unreal!!! The rare woods... I get that it’s being used to drive wars. No problem with that. Fight harder. Make alliances. Life isn’t fair, why should the game be fair???

You have two replies to me in the space of three messages... This reply says you can wreck DLC ships whenever you want with trash crafted ships... But DLCs wreck the game cause they let the casual noob get into that fight with you that the noob otherwise wouldn’t or couldn’t because the noobs aren’t crafting ships or don’t have crafted ships that level... If that noob doesn’t have the DLC ship, he doesn’t get into that fight, you don’t get to wreck him... no PvP for you... no rewards for you... then you’re on here moaning about no PvP... The other reply talks about how you can’t win port battles without the meta ship. Meta ships are crafted... How does DLC ships hurt crafting again??? All of these arguments saying DLC hurts crafting is garbage! Crafted ships will always be better. Crafted ships will always be the meta ships for port battles. Crafted ships will always be preferred for hunting in the open world. There will always be a market for crafted ships! DLC ships allow noobs to get wrecked by you. That’s a bad thing? DLC ships allow more to participate in PvP. That’s a bad thing? Not everyone on here wants to grind 100 hours to earn their meta ship and lose it to a OW gank. But they may be more than willing to give a good fight in a ship they aren’t so worried about losing. And the fact the ship respawns in 24 hours means they might be back online the next day looking for payback... but that a bad thing, right?? DLC ships hurting this game is FAKE NEWS!!!

I am a solo!! I love the challenge! If we could just leave the game be for a bit to see the economy develop... The shops are empty cause we keep resetting... and everyone has to restart everything. I’m back to craft level 1. Do I want to start another grind if they’re just gonna wipe it again? IDK If the admins are happy with this current state of economy then let it run awhile and see what’s what... Remember socialism never works!
