Capt Jubal Early

You guys only lost because Ian King wasn't there. I missed him popping out in his cutter to say Hi babes.

Keep this thread clean please. Lots of threads for you to moan in else where

Its alright i floated in on a raft with a sunhat, my cabin boy and a bottle of rum yarrr! Really was a good fight.

Fair enough.

This is not the thread your looking for. I think you'l find all the pirate nerfing discussion you need in the suggestions section. National newsDiplomacy, role-play, events, battle reports, light forum PvP

Keep the metagame chat out of the RP section please. As the new lord protector of Jeremie i invite all who sail under the black to a free rum and 100 pieces of eight to bet freely in the casino of dread. Yarrrr!

Calm down ladies and gents, put your hand bags away. Suggestion That these tickets become hidden so an admin or mod can deal with the evidence and the claim, then speak to those involved and resolve it. I for one am completely fed up of these public hangings getting out of hand like this. Its counter productive and darn right disgusting to see. New players to the forum will read this drivel and not play this game.

Those connies got wrecked Try some classical next time that crazy euro trash burns my brain

Bloody yanks. Demanding half of my Bahamas in return for empty promises. Your diplomacy is as hollow as your peg legs sirs. Trust is hard to come by in these troubled times and your threats only make our resolve stronger. The black will fly over all nations one day and every man and women will be free of oppression and tyranny! Yerr scurvyy dogsss!

A well placed Ram when prepared for survival can cripple another players ship thats not ready to plug leaks. Although saying that the new changes to crew have made it easier to survive a ram because everyone is effectively ready for survival.

I have no idea what your on about and i'm not interested in playing this blaming game. Its simple this is abused its not allowed i'll report it regardless of nation. If anyone from our clan did this they would be kicked period. Thank you.

Player (Lord razor) joined a port battle with no intention of fighting. No responses to any chat messages and he left once the battle was underway. Not the first time this guys name has popped up in a PB with him to leave. Suspected troll with another main character on another nation. Screen shot for evidence below. http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/316748014349956867/3BF060CB33242C01E0640A5F7EEDFF3BA48BFB13/

First off in the middle of moving house so bare with any slow or poorly constructed responses. I think the pirate nation does feel different in the regard that most of the players are solely interested in their own en-devours. The majority of the players avoid interaction with clans, attack other pirates at will, scam and run their mouths like jack sparrow himself was possessing them. In regards to the pirates being another "nation" i honestly understand what your saying but as the devs have said many times its a sandbox game and if the players who have turned pirate want to work together and take over the map its entirely their choice to do so, and to be honest i agree with the devs to a certain degree. Not to mention the vote for pirate mechanics in the what to develop next thread is high up the list IE in the medium term so i look forward to what the devs will develop from a well rounded and neutral position. I fear clouding the developers minds with our nay-saying and whinging isn't going to help. We must endevour to play the game as is now reporting bugs and issues as we go not filling the forum with the pirates are OP because they got organised bollocks. If as many have said and there is issue with the pirate mechanics IE to many people joining, jacksparrow stole my motorboat etc etc etc then let the devs discover this from data gathering through playing the game. They can see the outcome of this they have the numbers, the territory information, the players list etc etc. I tire of threads moaning about pirates when we all voted for our game dev priorities. (No not all but the vote was around before release) Is their anything i'd like to see for pirates. Customization of pirate flags.

I am fully aware of all of this kind sir. And i do tend to agree with you in some regard. I just see it fruitless to be constantly bringing up the issue of "pirates" when the devs are fully aware and have already commented on the continued ranting about pirates. Now to counter argue your point about playing to win. It would be more beneficial for a developer to see the game in full swing rather than hand holding each other in a manor that gives false outcomes and results. If as everyone has mentioned there is a actual problem with pirates (i dont see it) then surely the increased growth of the black territories will only allow the devs to see your point with ease and actually implement your changes. + who honestly plays a game to be nice to the enemy. I would expect nothing but brutality from you guys in the battlefield followed by a polite good game sir. Secondary point. The balance within the pirates only holds through the efforts of the few that communicate and translate through the multinational clans to resolve problems between us and work as a team. If other nations followed suit the game would be a different place.

Three cheers to the dutch.

Im sure this is already on the devs list

Sorry bro disagree. Would continue to explain my reasoning's but i fear my patience for a forum argument has grown thin. I for one just want the moderators and admins to be aware that not all people agree with the forum warriors on here. Dont like pirates, Do something about it. We organised and gave you a beating. Whats to stop you doing the same?

Shit i let him know about my super secret Rum distillery plans!

Prisoner had an "accident" during transit.

So we effectively found a way to multiply ships without a negitive Yeah your Reno guy was also a hero as was Gondie in his reno who took your first mast. Yarrr

We shall arrange Payment in the Morro good Sir. Is this your ingame name?

Charles Caldwell. Captured Outside Leogane. Fought like a proper hero all the way. Hats off sir.

Yarr long beard yeee be confused Grog rations are for bording as yee have explained. Rum rations are for shooting yarrrr. Rum rations reduce cannon reload time by X But increase cannon dispersion by X (dispersion is basicly how accurate the round is over a distance, in other words how far the ball will stray from where you aimed over distance.) EDIT: Yar ive just realised OP be confused not yeee long beard my apologies. OH well theres the break down of rum rations anyway

If solo players wanna join a port battle cant they just ask like any normal person? Also being as these end game features such as port battles are geared towards communities and groups to chase after i believe its not necessarily the place for a solo player if their not willing to partake in communication with any of the clans involved. We all get annoyed when a random joins a battle and steals your prize without even a hidyho why should it be any different with PB? Its a problem that needs addressing at some point.

I beileve there is already a lack of ways to gain experience in this game in its current form. Limiting the main source of most new players experience is not a good idea it will just turn new players away from the game as they will have no way to level to new ships with ease. The answer to get more people playing PVP is not in limiting PVE. PVP needs a jazzing up to get players more involved.
