  1. For the past 1-2 Weeks I have been completely unable to play due to Connection, I log in and usually within a minute, I get logged out. It doesn't crash, It simply goes back to Login screen. Happens as fast as 5-10 seconds after i log in or as long as 2-3 minutes. Haven't been able to stay logged in for longer than 5 minutes in probably 2 weeks. Lucky for me I have only been getting on to craft but it is still incredibly frustrating. This is not a problem with my network. My Internet is perfect for all other games and regular online.

     

    usually chat disappears and then a couple seconds later I get logged out, Sometimes i cannot even use chat after logging in.

  2. So, as far as Combat goes on the last update I was pretty happy about everything. There is 1 thing that I have seen several people dislike, as do I. 

     

    With the new update we had the ability to use our crew at different task at the same time, this is great. as far as survival it helps while fighting if you actually wanted to survive. the problem is when you are boarded and you purposely try to sink your ship so you cannot be captured, Survival is Forced on and cannot be turned off. This isn't good I can disable it throughout the battle I should be able to disable it while I am being boarded. 

     

    If I am wrong and there is some way to turn it off. Please inform me.

  3. You post on a Forum with a bounty... You only sunk me because you had clan members ramming me and shooting me for neg xp. Dont try and act big and tough your a child. If you need to put bounties out then you cant sink shit. No one has KOS us once yet because [DC] isn't taken seriously! You will learn David to operate Manual sails and stay in front of your target and switch broadsides between reloads, if you want I can teach you sometime :) Why would I not keep infront of you and your clan members when im alone? I only needed to sink you and I did enjoy the -1 dura! I wasnt losing Xp sinking your friends Learn to play and cry alot less! Your making your clan look weak if you got to outsource help. GL on keeping those traders alive!

     

    I literally got 10 separate screens of DC players sinking or surrendering tough clan here guys!

    I got screens of you being a girl. so until "SOMEONE ELSE" gives you a screen of me sinking toughen up and fight your own battles kiddo.

     

    This is hilarious, You keep being proud of taking 25 Minutes to demast a traders brig. and one that was not even running away but running TOWARDS you.

     

    This is how you Demast a Trader brig. 3 Minutes  30 seconds. You took almost half an hour while doing it on a Renomee. Please don't tell me how to sail. You need to learn yourself first.

    And Stop talking shit about Teammates hitting you. YOU rammed into your own teammate because you could not control your ship. You got rammed by AI and then rammed into your own teammate.

  4. At about 10PM EST Pirates pulled the flag for Hog Cay, after already having already taken 2 other ports within 2 hours. Americans where ready this time. They had successful interceptions of the flag and tied up some guys in battles Before the Port battle finally Started.

     

    From the very start Pirates where outnumbered, We Managed to take the towers first while still being outnumbered and Americans still receiving more reinforcements. at the end of the towers, we still had alot of BR to recover and Americans started to sink. at they end they had 15 Loses vs the Pirate's 8 and we Captured the port.

     

    Great fight, Congratulations to all pirates from DC, CURSE and SSU for wonderful teamwork.

  5. We are pirates and like pirates we live a dangerous lifestyle. Don't like your traders being raided by pirates? Don't look so juicy leaving port! You need to man up!

     

    We love the bounties! I have only been playing the game a little over a week and so far I love it! I got a crew of 20+ pirates and like real Pirates we are Wanted Dead or Alive!

     

    **** please David try to kill me yourself.... Its weak to outsource killing in a pvp game... come get you some!

     

     

    You speak as if I had not sunk you as you ran away the whole time...

  6. I [David Batista] In-game name am Placing a 150k Bounty on [Charles Vayne]<-Name is Exactly like this there are other Charles Vanes in pirates. and [Cpt Flint Rogers] They are Both Pirates in PvP 2, They roam around Pirate waters but seem to be based out of Cayman Brac.

     

    Rules to Claim bounty:

    Must CAPTURE ship. Ship must be a Renomee/Surpise or up, Must not be in his clan or be associated in any way with them.

    Must Provide Image of the Capture of the ship.

     

    You get to keep the captured ship.

    Reward of 150k Each will be given at Free port La Tortue. All nations are welcome.

  7. Exactly. 7 days. That is what it takes for a level 50 crafter to give birth to a Santíssima on its own given he has 5 production buildings at max level, including the shipyard, probably have to buy some resources ( or spend time to get them ) plus hours needed to craft notes.

     

    That is what Devs want as stated in the patch discussion.

     

    I say it is quite a compromise given the 7 years in reality.

     

    So let's respect the Devs vision. It is quite solid.

     

     

    This is how you kill a game. All the hardcore people want a hardcore game. Problem is hardcore players are a Minority. The game needs balance or it will die. It cannot survive on a couple hundred players.

  8. I must have missed something, what are the new limits ?

    Pray tell...

     

    Considering it cost about 1.1 Million for a shipyard to build high end ships. You are basically limited to 1 port where you craft all your ships. Before you could go to any port and craft if you were crafting for a friend or clan mate. Unless you want to spend 1.1 Million to build 1 ship and never use it again. It does indeed limit you to your home port.

  9. the new level requirements are a REALLY good idea in my opinion, it really adds a new layer to crafting especially the highest level ships. 

     

    it was a surprise to see the gold notes at lv35, and in my view a very good surprise

     

    Im interested, do you actually craft? because I haven't met a crafter that was excited by the lvl 35 requirements. The idea of atleast doubling the crafting time for a ship is pretty ridiculous to me. Even if you expect to sell it for alot more, who the hell is going to afford it?

  10. Now, It is quite noticeable that the crafting changes in the last update were not received very well. It is clear that this update greatly slowed down an already very slow system.

     

    The Shipyard system brought on a very large expense with absolutely no benefit to crafters. it also greatly limited the location where ships could be crafted. this by itself is a big blow to the crafting community in Naval Action which is already a low percentage of players to begin with.

     

    The Building system also hurts crafters in the long wrong, by requiring labor hours to collect the produced resources it basically leaves out any serious crafter from participating in this. this would be fine if the economy wouldn't be completely controlled by buildings in the future. all resources will increase in prices as they now carry the Cost of the building + cost of producing + the price of the hours.

     

    now arguably the biggest problem is the changes to crafting notes, with the biggest negative being the high level required to craft the notes, this absolutely destroys the market for Crafting hours from other players and removes the cooperation of clans and friends to better their clans or nations and basically makes crafting a Solo act, forcing crafters to make all the notes for their own ships, using up a whole days worth of hours for the notes to make 1 exceptional ship.

     

    This affects many aspects of the game, first the amount of ships being created will be drastically reduced, while this can be good sometimes. I think we can all agree that the game is painfully slow as it is and making it slower will only turn off newer players. This assumes that if I am to craft all materials and all notes to make and exceptional 3rd rate it would take me 6 days of crafting hours. This is outrageous. we built a market for Labor hours for a reason. new players benefited from using their hours in exchange for goods or giving their hours to clan mates for cooperation. this is gone as far as crafting notes.

     

    In the end this will result in 1 of 2 ways, All crafted high end ships will all be Basic or Common. OR they will all be so expensive that most players wont be able to afford them and crafting will not be able to survive.

     

    Crafting community is slow and small as it is. Do not kill it completely

     

    Full disclosure: I voted for 5-10-15 and Raising Resource requirements to balance the expense of notes.

  11. It was a long overdue change that was planned long ago.

    But perhaps it could be changed back UNTIL the port map reset.

    Keep in mind that a lot of players requested it to be changed to neutral as that area had enough free towns.

    WHAT? How can that even be considered? That just proves it was only done to help the french. It is bullshit. If that port changes back everybody is going to realize that shit. Stop taking sides.

  13. I have to agree. Being a USA's player, I can feel that we are too strong when compared to some minor nations (no offense). There has to be a balance patch that goes like this: the least populated a nation is, the bigger their xp multiplier is. So for instance, spain could get like x5 xp or something like that, to entice people to join that nation.

     

    But then, that could lead to people power farming their lvl and then restarting their account with their nation of choice... Oh well at least we tried lol

    the real solution is Player caps based on lowest player count nation

    Cannot have more than 50% more players than the smallest nation in the Server

    If the smallest nation has 200 players the biggest should be limited to 300

    Or if they the lowest has 400 the biggest should be limited to 600

    This limit would only be in place until the lower nations get filled up and then more slots open up in the bigger nations, It would allow for certain nations to still be more powerful in player numbers but not by a HUGE margin like it is today

    It is the only way to prevent Americans from having 700 players online while the smaller nations have 20

  14. RockNRoll There wasn't really equal losses on both sides, Americans had much worse losses. We had a few cutters go down. and I went down on my snow only because I stayed back to hit you personally and got hit by about 5 Americans and then rammed :) but other than that we didn't lose many big ships you guys lost a couple surprises and a few others big guys.

    Great fight though.

  15. I recently changed servers by accidentally clicking wrong server to login into, I was in server PvP Two USA and accidentally logged into PvP One EU and now when i try to log back into my server and i get the error "Authentication error: Account is locked by shard 'PvP One EU' - please try later or login there"  is there a timer to change server? or will i have to create a new account?

     

     

     

     

     

    EDIT by Leviathan - Please read

     

    Unfortunately, the servers are having some issues but the Dev team is addressing them. There is currently no ETA but we will update as soon as it's known.

     

    In the meantime, I have created this topic and merged the existing server related threads into this one. Please keep your feedback and comments here regarding the issue.

     

    Thank you for your patience
