Taurcan

What is the point of removing the known latitude and longitude from the game? A protractor is totally useless if you don't know your position? We would still be navigating by following shore lines, without the use of sextants and chronometers, which permitted very close navigation. You can't plot a course without it, unless you have view of landmarks. I entered into a chase with a ship carrying contraband, from near Kingston Jamaica. After a very long chase , with multiple changes of heading, and times,. ,and taking over an hour to capture it, the only direction I knew was that Jamaica was hopefully somewhere north. It was, but, by estimate, I sighted land, much closer to Savanna than Kingston, it was far west of Carlisle. With a known close fix, I could have headed directly for Kingston. They knew how to determine lat and long. Bring it back or give us the means to determine it. Another baby gone with the bathwater.

I'm 73 years old. Not getting a second chance and taking all the time you need, is jut not on for people of my age. we all know that you're going to continue to release patches as the game progresses. So what does it matter, if you release the game and then add the details we're now waiting on later. As it stands, there are very few people on the servers, and no point in acrueing gold or crafting except to build craft experience points. Please get it out ASAP, for many of us, ardent supporters, really do have limited time, and can't afford to wait for the game to be impossibly perfect.
