I don't understand why people prefers to encourage closer combat. I think it's good as it is. Doing damage from closer distance is easy enough to make you get closer when you see it's necessary right now, and combat from longer range is not that easy to change it. I personally think changing it for more closer combat would probably finish with cautious attacks for going more for brute force short range attacks finishing with an aboarding. People seem to like more the brute force and things like in films where ships are close each other and fire all cannons and do a lot of damage, but I think it is cooler and funnier to damage fromt he distance and that is where the better player should get the advantage, not the one that has the better firepower and better hull. Cause hitting from short distance is not hard. Maybe I missunderstood the question.
