  1. I didnt realize you could start or join battles from port lol. I also didnt realize two tows a day would mean the end of ow.
  2. I have one main, its absurd trying to balance crafting, pvp, and rvr with limited time. I shudder to think of the new player experience with all that on top of the learning curve. Alts never sat right with me from the beginning. Seemed like they would warp the actual construction of a game still in alpha moving forward, but hey what are ya gonna do? Re buying the game multiple times should not be a hurdle to enjoy the game. I mean seriously isnt the collective hope of the community to see higher pop and then retain that pop? How can you tell a brand new player who read all the negative reviews and STILL bought the game to go buy an alt?
  3. For the last couple years it seems like people have been trying to maximize ow population by making the game more tedious every step of the way, and we've been getting the same results, fewer people logging in, fewer ppl in ow. I dont care how its done or who suggests what i just want to make larger pvp battles more frequent and accessible because they are the heart and soul of this game.
  4. False i just wait for tows. Sailing a 2-1st rate from bermuda to anywhere is literally like 3 hours. You do have a valid point, though its not why i made the post. I figured id give it a try anyways. Doesnt matter if you have a 24hr or 2 hr cooldown players will wait to tow valuable, slow ships.
  5. Time saving mechanics are bad because they take players out of the ow. I wonder how many people quit the game due the sheer amount of time required to move shit around. Its not about risk aversion, you'll take the ship out sooner or later. Its about making it easier for players to have the right ship in the right place at the right time to be able to participate in more than just getting ganked trying to get from a to b. Id also point out that being online for 6 plus hours is actually a long time for people whos lives dont revolve around games.
  6. Im geniunely curious, what are the potential drawbacks to having a 6hr cooldown on tows or even a 12hr cooldown, and why would players having the ability to better situate themselves to pvp/pve be a bad thing? Suggestion: 6hr cooldown for tow
  7. Id honestly be surprised if WO could even field a 25 man fleet, attritions gotta be pretty bad when all you get is empty pbs with 100ppl online in the middle of the night.
  8. The creators of this game never agreed to compensate you for willingly playing the game. The Pandora is a free gift. You are complaining about a free gift not being enough to compensate you for playing the game. Thats sad man.
  9. Feels like nassau is really hard to defend when you dont have screeners and you dont have the wind.
  10. You must understand that better than anyone by now, sitting off the coast of CT for the last year and a half.
  11. Make them all single use (beginning at release) and priced at like $3. Agreed with OP, if we do get alot of new players there will be many who will want to move for a whole host of reasons we've all seen for the last few years, but dont wanna pay for the dlc right after paying for the game itself. One freebie would go a long way in terms of player retention.
  12. Christendom twisting people's words and flat out making stuff up? Nothing new there. Wipe everything. If the game gets an influx of new players no one should care about not having their books...unless they suck without them, in which case the salt will be hilarious. If we don't get the influx it probably wont matter anyway.
  13. All I know is if you see ram dinark sailing a Niagara in the PZ, pop smoke and haul ass in the other direction.
  14. don't see any reason to not have more room in chest but there's certainly no real drawbacks. Everyone has access to free ports or safe zone ports both of which cannot be capped. Honestly wouldn't mind seeing the tp fee go away but the chest itself is quite handy if you craft in Bermuda
  15. Six frigates was an excellent read. Agreed with OP on econ diversity. Idk how much can really be done as far as crafting econ goes considering how much its swung back and forth over the last few years between more and less in-depth but something should be done about trade goods being funneled to a few player through contracts. A wealthy player (with alts) can utterly dry up whole regions of any worthwhile trade goods. I hope upcoming trade changes on the agenda address this, perhaps eliminating buy contracts for trade goods entirely.
  16. I can post the screens from the last couple days of me "jumping into port" if you like. I just find it funny that your friend offered up the classic "duel defense". I also find it funny you chose to have a spontaneous duel with a clan mate while in front a busy Russian port where you constantly raid, while at the same time being chased by a gank squad. We've all been ganked, we've mostly all ganked others, no one likes it, least of all me. It's not an excuse to pull cheesy shit like that though, not after the success you've had down there, and especially not over a replaceable dlc ship.
  17. Tell us then, where exactly did they choose to have this duel?
  18. Indeed, see you around 'caibo no doubt
  19. I think he was saying that they were chasing you but you and a clan mate tagged each other far away to avoid battle....tbh I don't care I'm just havin a chuckle over it. I don't see how you can be surprised that there are plenty of Russians who want to sink you. You hunt in the same area every day with that alt
  20. Didn't think you'd stoop this low, I'm disappointed in you. The alt must be sacrificed (reset) to the admin gods.
  21. Haha they complain about having no one to fight in their timezone yet are still too afraid to hello kitty with WO.
  22. Or make it so you can't delete dubs in hold in the OS to grief other players.
