Cutter sail plan question
Oneironz replied to Oneironz's topic in Unrated and other light combat vessels
That is all I wanted to know. The NA devs avoided the odd sail to make the ship more aesthetic, and avoid the pain of graphical bugs such as sail clipping? How often was that sail used anyway? -
Cutter sail plan question
Oneironz replied to Oneironz's topic in Unrated and other light combat vessels
Thank you for your in depth replies, it explained a lot to me. Even though using both sails at the same time could be cripling to the cutter's sailing performance, most european designs did use both sails at the same time. Is the NA model an european design? Or did the devs choose not to incude the mainsail because of performance reasons? Cheers -
Cutter sail plan question
Oneironz replied to Oneironz's topic in Unrated and other light combat vessels
So, to get this straight. A cutter is a vessel, a bit longer and larger than a sloop, with a square rigged sail plan, in which there is a square course and a top sail? Being the ship still classified as a cutter if it only has the top sail deployed? Wouldn't the ship lack thrust power without the square course? Thank you. -
Hello Game Labs! Glad to see this masterpiece moving along this quickly! Although I have one small question regarding the basic cutter in the current Naval Action. The cutter is a ship that has a square rigged sail plan, with a big mainsail and one smaller on top. Though the in game cutter is lacking the main sail, only having the topsail. Why is this? Thank you.

I wasn't aware of these two ships, thanks for enriching my general knowledge. I would certainly enjoy to sail a Portuguese ship in game! Cheers

That is awesome! Hope you suceed on your goals!

Indeed, and each character is totally different! Ricardo Reis and Alvaro Campos are opposites, yet they will be in the same test -.-Why are you studying Fernando Pessoa? Are you Portuguese? 200th post
-
I am Portuguese and I can confirm this, Portugal has a lot of poetry, lyrics and texts about the discovering of Brasil, the path to India, among other discoveries. Although Fernando Pessoa is a bit of a pain in the ass with all the made up characters such as Álvaro Campos, Ricardo Reis, Alberto Caeiro, etc. I have to study them for my first language subject. I just can't get the exams right when it's about Fernando Pessoa. Oh well.

I have heard that the person who modelled the Leviathan also modelled the Agamemnon, we could find the guy back in Potbs forums, shame they were closed months ago. I quite enjoyed to read what happened on Antigua and Roberts, there were some funny threads back then.

Bom Natal para todos e um bom ano novo!

Welcome to Naval Action Spyboy! I'm sure you'll enjoy hanging around Cheers

I would like to be aware as well.

Indeed, as much as I love the ship models released so far, it can get a bit dull seeing the same ships over and over. The HMS Ontario and the Santissima should give some fresh ships to shoot on
-
Thank you for replying. That is good, means that it is almost finished! Cheers
-
Another knot? No way I'm enjoying to sail the Trincomalee so much, I even killed a Bellona solo, against a player.
-
Hello Game-labs! Having voted on HMS Ontario, which would be a nice ship to fill the gap between the Cutter and the Surprise, I am curious about how finished is the model? And what about the Santissima Trinidad? Have a good day
-
I was the player in the Trincomalee in the aforementioned battle, I also got a little pissed that he ruined a pretty fun cannonball exchange. We were both beaten down, but timing of repairs and aiming could have won the situation for either of us. When I am alone against a far inferior ship, I let them destroy a big portion of my hull, even after wasting repairs, then sink them in two broadsides, but I wouldn't do that when busy with another player. But I get you Ramjb, you just wanted to be helpful! Perharps next time the fate of the battle is decided by skill and seamanship, not rammers!
-
In this PvP match the brig got itself in front of my Trincomalee, while I was busy shooting the other Trincomalee. This strange collision happened, which resembles to elephants humping each other. This isn't anything new to the devs, but I wanted to let them know.
-
Hey there ligatorswe! I agree with your statement, the people in this community are the best I have ever seen in an online game! I hope this lasts well beyond the Sea Trials Every battle I had with you, you were outnumbered, sorry about killing you on such circumstances. Cheers

Ah the Myrmidon! That ship was awesome when I was starting to PvP in Potbs, good DPS, good turning and looks great! Would sail her /10

Looks like a few people have a liking for the Raa frigate, me included, it's a nice frigate, not too heavy, not too light, it has decent speed and turning ability. Its main point (in Potbs at least) was the high reload capacity due to its many low lb cannons, I think they were 10lbs. Something like this would be fun to see in Naval Action. ONLY if it is realistic of course, as I am not sure on the actual ship itself, and the cannon poundages that it packed.
