    They forgot about rewards and loot. It would never backfire in that case. If people got random loot similar to potbs and drops, especially rare ones game would grind on. They could spice things up with ship blueprint drops with low drop rates for ALL ships! Even full 1 dura ships! People would never leave this game then...

    Blueprints used to be not know but dropped, from crafting, like you suggest.  People hated it. Personally, I did not mind it.

    Concering the PvE rewards, we realy need to make sure that its not again a money printing service. At this time I think its grindy, but at least you know you'll never get stinking rich doing missions. Its more like your spending money.

    If you can get 500k for a Vic kill in PvE, we're going to be swimming in millions and millions of gold in no time. And those who are lower ranked and new players will be the ones who will drop out of the game for this.

    We'll be back to people putting up buy contracts for unreasonable prises just capitalising on all the rare stuff. Ships will be crazy expensive again. Its gona break the economy. Think its prety fine atm.

    Amen!

    In the end, 25v25 RvR in rare-wood slowboats of the most expensive kind is simply too broken for anyone to put up with, and, in what I think is the really sad part, not enough people enjoy open world PvP.

    BLACK does not like OW PvP.

    Everyone else learned to dislike RvR.

    No PvP + no RvR = dead game.

     


    So, yeah.

    If everyone had come out to OW PvP I think we could'a had fun. Some people were starting too but it was too thin in population by then.

    Maybe those of us that like ow PVP should, after the next patch, group up and split up between two nations? (Maybe GB and Pirates, Pirates and Spanish, or France and DN)? I know WO and even some Purge went to EU.  I was thinking of playing my EU pirate more (but really don't want to start over again with no gold or resources) just so I can fight against my Global French buddies. :)

    Pretty sure France did give a crap. Pretty sure if server hadn't died out many French would've used some forged papers, but instead they just left the game.

    Those French that did 'give a crap' switched nations already and are probably happier.  The rest of us left, don't care about ports I believe. :) Personally, I'd be happy with only having the capital island.

    About mods ...

     

    Personally I'd love if they got rid of mods and skill books completely. Let the ship, wood type, and cannons you chose and your skill determine your outcome. :)

     

    Edit: although it's just me.  I have a friend who plays this game who prefers POTBS combat bc the skills make it more unpredictable whereas I hate all the buffs/debuffs, etc of POTBS

  6. Please, please, please bring back NPC selling of repairs, maybe at high costs so crafters don't complain.  On Global my home nation is France. The last few weeks our clan has been up at the US coast wanting to help the US fight pirates around there. We took our time, sailed the distance, which I don't mind.  Yesterday I ran out of rig repairs after actually getting into a 1v1. No one else from my clan was on.  I was able to find canvas rolls but could not find fir logs to make repairs. I did hear that someone from the US was going to give us some repairs but again there were none when I was around.  So I had to quit playing.  I'm a very casual player, play only on weekends.  And not being able to find repairs hurts me when I'm trying to provide PVP by actually taking time and sailing into enemy territory.

    Maybe the number of people who could convert to pvp has fallen drastically due to the design paradigms we have been creating with the active community here?

    • Insta- closed battles (favor pvp hunters and not average players)
    • No reinforcements (favor pvp hunters and not average players)
    • Removal of revenge gank due to invisibility and speed buff (favor pvp hunters and not average players)
    • Removal of resource transport (favor pvp hunters and not average players)
    • Many other features that were pushed in to just place average players in line for easy consumption by pvp hunters 

    Now we are getting requests to remove missions from capitals (to let pvp hunters find target easier). 
    Your opinion is valuable and you were one of the players who asked for some real fixes of revenge ganks - you got them. Did you start to pvp more?

    Or maybe all those changes destroy the supply of targets and because wolves don't eat wolves you have nobody to play with once average players dissapear?

    For more PVP, I suggest going back to the old repair system, at least where they can be bought from NPCs.  It is impossible to continue to privateer when you run out of repairs. The future reduction in ship costs should help too. :) 

    Edit  I think 1 dura may have reduced PVP but everyone seems to like it  

    Edit again, if you think the changes to reduce revenge fleets reduced PVP, (which I don't think is entirely the case) then remove the speed boost but please keep invisibility.

    Apparently, there is lots of frustration by PvE players on PvP server about PvP. I am totally lost. A Huge majority (more than 90%) is not doing any PvP activity on PvP server? Something is wrong.

    For one thing I wish repairs were for sale by the NPC, for higher than craft cost.  Got into two PVP fights today on Global off the US coast (I'm French) and now I'm out of rig repairs. I need to now sail around looking for resources to make repairs or spend time hitting NPCs (🤢) And hope to get repairs.  

     

    Sorry for being off topic.

  9. Also have 1 nation, I don't care whether pirates or some other, that is not RVR centric.  I like how POTBS handled pirates, played as a pirate there for at least 3 years. They could take ports but after a few days it would return to the nation so there was no purpose to pirate RVR, although some did it.  Other than ow fights and eco warfare (selling your trade goods) I personally don't care on how many dots my nation has as RVR isn't my thing (yes, I'm weird), the fewer the better. :) If outlaw mechanics ever come in to play, that's who I'll be. :)

    So many champions typing pages and pages on this forum about how good they are... But when it comes to subscribe to a tournament, oh wait !? this is too much to ask !!!

    Come on, let's have some fun !

    I would love to be in the tournament and don't mind sinking and losing.  However I don't know what team will want me.  Having only time to play on weekends, I spend what little time I have either looking for PVP or making money trading so I can replace ships, not grinding stupid slots on a ship.  I think my surprise only has 2 slots open and I'm perfectly fine with it. I can PVP with that. :) I'll admit, I love love love open world PvP but am also somewhat of a noob at it compared to others I hang with.
