HMS Victory wrong paint scheme


Recommended Posts

The color of the Victory paint scheme will have to change because the yellow type in game is wrong, because in 2015 the HMS Victory was painted with a new yellow, and the experts found that the previus yellow type was wrong

Victory is painted a faint salmon pink because that's how she was at Trafalgar (perhaps kiss me Hardy isn't such an awful misquote after all). She has had many different paint jobs over her many years of service, the pink and black is just one of them, she was also yellow and black, black and white, and red and yellow, and red and black, there are a also few other colour schemes that she donned during her lifetime moving with fashion and material supply.

Victory in the game also is somewhat different to how she would have looked at Trafalgar too but not many people seem too fussed by that, the original hull and design has shifted slightly but noticeably enough away from Slade's original plans after she was extensively rebuilt in 1800 after the battle of Cape St Vincent, she was also rebuilt again in 1814, again to a slightly different design.

The HMS Victory we have today and in the game is subtly quite different to how Slade and Nelson would have known her in 1765 and 1805.

I really wish paints will return, way to many ships look to much alike.  If it was cause they brought a bunch of sounds in game that we can't have certain paints and ships than I say remove those sounds until unity 5 is put into place.   Hell I have most of volume turned down to hear my clan mates on TS any way, at least all the ambient noises not dealing with battles is turned down or off.  

WE WANT PAINTS.......

I was actually hoping those wreck chest would have paints in them.

Could not agree more would MUCH rather have paints than the additional sounds.
