  1. This is the first lesson of my Academy of sorts for new and newer players.  In this video I perform the Endurance Exam.  i will do the other exams and the Final Exam in the next few day.  Seems I inadvertently cut the last minute off because of the delay.  Well i did win and received the victory banner..

  2. Definition of sexism. 1 : prejudice or discrimination based on sex especially : discrimination against women. 2 : behavior, conditions, or attitudes that foster stereotypes of social roles based on sex.

     

    Because, my confused friend, you claim sexism.  Thus there needs to be a logical reason for such claims ie: identification of someone's gender in relation to actions or word. I have already spoken to someone via PM who actually answered the freakin question, as opposed to waving their arms like a blithering social justice numpty that apparently, does not understand the definition of the word they hurled at me.

    @Hethwill  @Ink  I request this Twitch reports and video thread be cleansed of this whiny  bullshit,  this is a thread I made to report on my twitch streams and adventures, to inspire players and educate new people.  Wraith here thinks its a playground to invade like some brain damaged Occupy CONTENT Movement to virtual signal and feel like a social justice warrior.  let him/her/whatever  make his/hers/this is stupid own damn thread to wax dramatic about the oppression of whatever tickles his/hers/FFS fancy.  Thank you

    so you wanted a solo fight but got tagged outside the solo pvp zone?  Is that what I'm reading here?

    Yup, happens half the time, minute I cross the line, they usually all turn round and run, which as Wraith indicates, I'm not all that good, so it's just weird.  😕

  4. I think that making a dual room would involve a lot of additional coding, meaning MORE work for devs, whereas my idea only required changing variable in already IN PLACE mechanics (I may very well be wrong).  My changes IMPROVE the PVP access for less than vets, they Can't get ganked out of port.  They can choose at their leisure to go out into the fleet zone.  THEY have a choice, as opposed to hoping you don't get caught.  understand this is not about me, I don't care if I get ganked.  I'm on the KOS orders of enough clans, so meh.  I am fighting for our new players, I stream to provide examples of why most of the sever just skips the whole thing, which not only denies them content, it denies the people who play like decent people from having opponents to fight, except for the HURR DURR gangs.

    I respect those who want to play their way, as long as they are honest, and I admit I do get verbally aggressive, as evidenced by Wraith's apparent PTSD and cries of some sort of misogony?  Still waiting for the answer to the question, but he may be busy 5v1 someone else who was trying to get into the 1v1 zone, dunno

  5. Ahem, look dude, if speaking to a woman, you speak to her like a Lady.  I am a gentleman and do not speak harshly to ladies.   I am not being sexist, you are being pig ignorant and a fool.  Is Vodka a woman or not?  If she is a woman I will address her as such.  Now answer the damn question and stop clutching your pearls.  And stop trying to deflect your toxic game play over to some virtual signalling snowflake idiocy.

     

    And if it doesn't matter don't bring it up as some passive aggressive swipe since you have no ground to stand on.

  6. I appreciate Vodka charity, hats off to his generosity.  i hope all the reps you guys looted off my ship compensated him.  As far as the boarding threats.... yawn, whatever.  I am not denying the right, I would like to see the system changed.  You gotta have dem shinys, ribbons, buttons and bows.  Let's see, how did you put it?  Ah,

    players choose to use them as a mechanic to get one of the limiting resources

    Really, all you care about.  not a fight, not a contest, not standing tall like a man and actually engaging another guy toe to toe.  Here is a doll, show me where the game touched you.  It is safe here.

  7. I expect nothing, I am not whining, you just don't understand my motivation.  I don't care about the ship, arranged dual?  NONE OF YOU WILL GO FOR THAT.  I see you guys and you just run from the 1v1 zone, especially if I am moving toward you.  That says more about your confidence than it does about mine.  Half the time the only way I get a fight is present myself as a single target for a roving group who require numbers to muster the courage to engage, or have a superior ship.  I have learned just how timid people can be, how precious they are with their little pixels.  The fact that you guys were about crashing to each other to get that XP for a new shiny.  Watch the bloody battle, it's right ^ UP THERE ^, start of the video, see what I say, see what you lot say, see my actions, SEE the hurt I put on Vodka's ship while taking fir from 5 ships, see your lot come to protect Vodka.

    @admin   My point Wraith, is to show WHY the PVP zones need to be changed as I have outlined, so people like you guys will just avoid them, and the other 95% of the dwindling server population can come have some FUN, to hell with your XP and shinys and ribbons and pixels.  Make the entry the 1v1 zone right out of port, available to ALL.  I have said this before and I will say again.  If the loss of 50 Tryhard gankers "game mechanics man quit whinging hurr durr mah xp and trinkets" means that lower level and learning players have access, which is FUN, which means they tell their friends, which mean more sales of DLC and new game sales and increased population.  Then good riddance to you and yours.  I don't mean this personally, but the maladaptive way you guys play is just shit, and you know it, you just snivel and say it's the game mechanics that make you guys cower when alone, and only attack with someone is there to hold your purses.  My proposals make you lot be somewhere else, while the population can have fun safe from ganks.  you may quit the game completely.  I DON'T CARE.

  8. I am following some of the legends, Reverse has accepted a 1v1 fight with me in equal ships, so we will set that up later on.  This could be start of injecting some excitement into the game.  We would both stream the game so people could watch both sides!  Will do the same for moscalb etc!

  9. Had a great stream going.  Unfortunately we have a tropical storm coming in with out wave storms and lightning struck a transformer near my house in Corpus Christi (Aransas in game) so no power.  Will post two great fights when I can and do it again later.

     

    /edit  Have power back, will stream again shortly.  Here is the last one.  Cut abruptly mid song  😕

     

     

  10. Tonight's battle started with being jumped by some Dutchies, made em work for it, except one boarded and sunk an almost intact ship, so more of a HURR DURR sink da bote as opposed to MAH XP.  Later joined a battle that was a little lopsided in our favour.  Then got into a oops tag and left to talk to my wife, came back and reinforcements had jumped in, was a good fight until was brought into a boarding by a guy that was rigged for such.  All in alll good fun!  Freakin music police again.

     

  11. I will be doing my part making not only the Twitch streams I already promote in global.  I also will be making videos for instruction of various aspects of the game, from the ships to tactics to trading.  I intend on having an academy of sorts to cater to newer players and others who may not grasp aspects of the game.

     

    Twitch name aeomar  It has the same profile pic as I do here.  I wont be messing much with any elite gear, but will address the low lever to mid level player.

  12. I now have a Twitch account, and am developing it.  I stream daily for PVP.  I will embed the video of tonight's fun.  before I could get into the 1v1 zone was tagged by VCS gank fleet.  After asking reasonable and getting the HURR DURR MY XP MUST SMASH answer I picked one guys and attacked him.. Caroline Vodka, and fired on no one else, they had no reservations so my Rattisvan  focused one guy trying to angle shots surrounded.  Actually was fun although, ah nevermind, only game mechanic change can fix this.

     

    It is the start of the video.  @admin

     

  13. PVP Zone tonight, first off, tagged by VCS gank fleet, finally decided to fire on one member only hoping the others would stand off, but they gotta get that XP Hurr Durr.  Ends as you would expect, but made them put some effort in.  @admin  This is something I would like you to see,  preventing a gank by having 1v1 zone surround free town will end the ability of this to happen, hope you watch at least the first battle.

    Second fight   (at 1:03)  was a proper 1v1 I lost due a messed up  tack and other mistakes, got boarded... still a great fight with Toasty.

    note:  Music police muted some things due to copyright something something

    IF you read the post you quoted you already know the answer to your own question.  IF you think that is legitimate play with the situation and actions of everyone involved.  And IF you think griefing a guy that says he is coming right back out to fight, you and you decrew, sail shock rage board and sink a 90% intact boat is anything approaching acceptable behaviour of a player.... I can't help you, you have either been hit in the head or are the very type of toxic player that should be have your account banned, hell I'll write the check for a 200% refund of your money.  Because THAT SHIT PLAY THAT YOU SEEM TO LIKE NOW is one of the biggest problems this game has.  I do not think this is the case, but those two guys were lowlife griefing jerks, lost any respect for them for those actions.  I understand acting shocked and surprised at the anger, but FFS that is not how you treat people.

  15. I will running a Twitch channel named dukeatreides both for instructional videos on game play, as well as Streaming regularly.  I am a noob at this and have a poor speaking voice due to a radiation treatments, so apologies for that.  This I will broadcast on Global for PVP zone fun and other engagements.  I hope you like, subscribe or however it works... I'll figure that out later.  Plan on having videos of content on the ships I sail, the mechanism of sailing as I understand as well as history and other Napoleonic naval items.

    Any feedback is welcome, be kind, I am learning how this all works.

    As a Noobie.

    Today is the 3rd week I have been playing.

    So for what it's worth.

    I am happy with the way things are. (However, I am aware I don't know all the ins and outs and do not comment on a number of issues raised as I don't yet know about them). Yes, Its a steep learning curve. I have been sunk a lot etc. But I would expect that. I'm new !

    If the game was easy, I would not find it so enjoyable. There are games out there for those who want just action. This goes deeper.

    In time I hopefully expect to rise through the ranks. Gain experience. 

    To help Noobies I would suggest they be encouraged to join a clan. Within a clan they will find players of varying experience (so I have discovered). Some newer than me !

    I would suggest trying to go it alone will have the effect of turning noobies away from the game.

    There is plenty of advice on this site. But from my little experience, something crops up when in open waters or just in port. Its then much easier just to ask the clan or nation for help. I don't have to wait long before some kind person provides the info.

    I understand to move forward the game requires new players to join and stay.

    To do so offer help and encouragement. Not just on the forum where there is a lot of useful advice. But when playing the game.

    I am loving it. Yes, it's  annoying when get ganked. But to me that's part of the game.

    I read a lot about NA before joining. I discovered it as it's on the same forum as UG, where I first started. So I was aware it would not be easy.

    Cheers all 

     

    I have a Twitch channel aeomar where I will be uploading instructional videos and streaming events, patrols and port battles as I get the thing figured out.  Watch for it.

  17. Was a good effort Koltes, I applaud your team for making an effort.  You unfortunately joined in the worst wind position and was fighting the whole time.  When you abandoned C I was able to go take it.  I actually did my first Twitch stream for the port battle.  Will be doing many more with video content teaching players how to capture AI, fighting strategies and live Twitch, once I figure it all out.  The points accumulation changed 6 months ago I think, not sure.  But that is why our fleet waited to see what was  your plan.  i did not command or anything, I was just volunteering for everything playing with my Twitch and practicing cinematic pans.

  18. And then the Beauty of the system is it WILL NOT ALLOW the shitty gameplay of a couple vets that I just had the pleasure of being griefed by.  [HAVOC] HulioTKD tagged my Wasa sailing into La Mona (about 30 seconds from dock) because I had decided to buy the Rattisvan DLC and found nothing in the PVP zone after sailing over from Aves.  I explained and asked him to disengage as a sportsman, told him I would not fire first, and asked him to let me pop into port, redeem a Rattisvan, then I would put reps on it from my Wasa and some guns and go out to 1v1 zone with him for some fun.  He said no and immediately stern raked me as [HAVOC]Bodeye in another Ratt looked on and laughed.  I was then sail shocked and rage boarded.  I sat back in shock and watched a guy I've sailed with and fought beside as he won the boarding in two shots, and sunk my intact ship while Bodye mocked me.  Really, that actually happened.  Sad to say but I'm done with the PVP zone tonight, I'll go do something else with disrespectful, griefing shit being pulled right outside La Mona. I don't even care about the ship, I just am astounded in the piss poor attitude of these two against another player.  Picture of the boat with stats:

    3A03BF83C36EF5C34387BC02529B1CA9ACCF90D7

     

    Very discouraging, its a cheap boat I saw in shop, grabbed it and put Meds on it to grind and have fun PVP, certainly not the shit that happened.  And you know, after a few housekeeping things I'm done with Naval Action tonight, and that's two less characters in the server for the next 8 hours.  And looking at BATTLE chat, and popping out in a basic cutter, they are pulling the same shit on others, not letting them into the PVP zone and tagging outside La Mona  @rediii  You have a couple guys @huliotkd and @Bodye  That are being greifing lowlifes.  SHAME if this is what your clan has become.
