  1. Yes on fags but that is a different story. He could have said that he wouldn't buy it if he got the money or not. If I gave you the money to buy fags, You you start smoking or spend it on something else? It doesn't matter whos money it is that you buy the dlc. The second the cash flows the game model works. P2W in general is a bunch of players thinking if they stop it won't make a difference.
  2. Those things are quite good and many other things except the roe and the ai hostility. However its the boring things in between the good things that people dislike.
  3. He has no standards. He said he boycotted the DLC but bought it because his fans donated money to him to buy it. I told him that that is not boycotting but being cheap so he blocked me for the 10th time.
  4. Of course wow is successful. I have never played it or watched gameplay of it. I know about it because I see annoying adds oll over the internet for wow and wot even more so. You think people browse the steam library for hours looking for games? They watch videos on YouTube. Only recent promotion this game had is dirty devs video. Irony about it all is that bannished probably did more good than bad because he unintentionally got na attention since a bad review is better than no reviews. Google naval action review. Noone made one because no one knows. Blade runner 2 was an excellent movie. One of the reasons It failed terribly because it was not marketed properly. Quality does not always mean success.
  5. In what way does naval action compete with wow? It's like saying dirt rally competes with f1 because both have cars. Code masters develops both games and releases them because they know there are rally fans and f1 fans. They don't compete. Then you have fans of both sports like myself and guess what. We buy and play all 2. Players look for games that have a setting that is intresting to them. If 2 games have completely different settings and completely different playstyles they don't compete. Wow and na have 1 thing in common. They both have an ocean. By that logic naval action competes more with gtav because it has both an ocean and sailing ships. Gamelabs 2nd game this land is my lands competes with red dead. If red dead was not released I would give it a shot since I love old western movies. Before I play this land is my land I ask myself what it has that read dead does not.
  6. What he says is not true. There is no competition in age of sail combat games. It might be true if they are in the same genre but what else would replace this game? Do you know of any other youtuber's that have 25v25 lineship battles with 300000 views like sea trials had? WOT doesn't compete with DCS just like sea trials did not compete with WOW. They have nothing in common. In general fun games do better than boring games.
  7. More ships are nice but I've been reading reviews on steam and people with few hours are highly critical of missions and trading and are calling them times sinks. The missions are boring because the world is dead. The only thing this game has to offer is combat. Afk trading missions are not content. Missions killing ai is the same shit with a different "objective" on paper. Even story driven quests like stellaris has wouldn't work because the world feels boring and dead. Look at red dead redemption 2. Rockstars mission design is the same old linear shit since gta 3. The stealth only works in missions and is scripted. The wanted system is badly designed yet red dead redemption 2 is the best game I have ever played and one of the highest rated games of all time. Why? It's because the game world is alive. Just riding around doing nothing and exploring random encounters, wildlife and Easter eggs is why it's so good. Open world games do not work if the player has nothing to do going from a to b. Its nice to look at for 10 minutes but that's it. In flight sims you can skip the flying and only do take off and landings. How many flight Sims require players to transport cargo over the Atlantic?
  8. The seal clubbing and skill gap is insane in this game for certain. The community as a whole is very uncompetitive in this game. If 4 pvpers from 4 different nations and clans meet up at open sea they are more likely to join forces than fight.
  9. Because the devs didn't like people avoiding open sea. Admin said it requires extra server room but if server room was a problem then why have a password locked small battle arena for a few months? When we had 3500 people over pvp servers 1, 2 and 3 4 years ago duel rooms were not an issue so I don't get why they suddenly are to expensive. Also on a side note MrDoran must be insane to think a 20 dollar subscription model would work. I wouldn't pay for it because no one would. May be he and the other raker left on the server will 😛 Last time they added a lobby for fleet practice and they removed it even though it was used quite often. Every night we would get 6-10 pvpers that wanted instant access to pvp to join and we had fun. They removed it because they would rather 10 people to sail a barren wasteland with no pvp whatsoever. Sometimes we got 50 people from all over the map to join. Arena is a direct threat to the idea of open sea and the devs are afraid it will succeed because what do you think players would prefer. Instant pvp or a 1-2 hour sail for a chance of PvP? The current "high" server pop will simply not last. 1000 or even 2000 players at release is nothing. Short awnser is: Arena and open sea are compeditors.
  10. Technically speaking he is more entitled to a lobby game than a open sea game because I believe he is also one of the players that purchased sea trials. He may be wrong but he is not acting entitled because all he wants are mechanics he purchased 4 years ago that were taken from him! Its clear that the game in its current state is more appealing to the masses but they also cannot expect the very old community members to just accept the changes. I never had issues with the early open sea. I liked the older 3 min join timer and loved the more sandbox style FFA pirate mechanics that we had. Now all that is changed and on top of that we are required to put a 4th major grind into getting assets back. Sure the books were nerfed but a 1 or 2% advantage can be a major advantage and its still 5 books. The major grind for books and ships aside for 1 minute. I bought naval action with a duel room and that content was taken from me. I dueled alot. Also I don't care about the retarded 1v1 patrol zone because I have lost around 10 ships going and coming from there so hello kitty that shite.... Not to mention the timesink of repairs and replacing lost ships. We might act entitled but do not forget that for some of us 100% of the content we enjoyed is gone.
  11. All the great YouTube videos are from the arena days. I would argue it's when the game really lived. The open world part of this game has died several time too. You just revived it with patches and wipes. Sea trials was never on steam. It died because all games do. If it was on steam when sidestrafe was making videos it would have sold way better. The only promotion this game ever had was in internal development. Once "released" on steam Noone made videos except small youtubers. Legends matchmaking was broken. It was designed for hardcore pvpers yet you forced use to start in basic cutters vs bots. When i asked people over teamspeak to look for lobby we were split up in 2 lobbies vs ai. You might be right that arena is less popular but do not blame legends failure on the genre because it was a technical mess and a game Noone except a few people on the forums knew about. I met one player in legends that was not from the regual game.
  12. PvE server is for that. What else would you need to practice on other than traders and eqaul and even smaller scaled ships. There is literally nothing to loose. Would be nice if pve server players got a 1 time free asset and rank server change. Not like the economy has any long term design in mind on the pvp server anyway....
  13. Its actually not a sandbox game. Its open world but for a sandbox we lack a shit ton for freedom. I am not even the strict when it comes to the term since I would consider GTA a sandbox even though it is not. Naval Action does not even give you the freedom to attack everyone. All the restrictions we have on how we can join battles etc make this game more like an open world matchmaking system.
  14. Oi! Unity is a damn fine engine that has made some of my favorite games possible. I don't know of any other engine that is as mod friendly as it either. It has its flaws but pros far exceed the cons imo.
  15. Except you don't have to do it. The reason you currently have to is because there are so few mods. That's why more mods are less biased than few mods. I mean someone that gets mad about an internet ban is insane. Your "friends" should grow up. I would let as many people as possible be moderators. Even if they are biased. As long as they have a reason to ban they do not have to ban friends. If vco and wo have 1 mod each they could ban members from the other clan as an example. They won't abuse it because they have reasonable people in both clans. You could just ask another mod to do it for you and if there are none online you prove my point.
  16. Its impossible to be unbiased and that is why more moderators are required. Henry, Hethwill and devs are only mods..... In all honesty I believe the moderation on the forums here is not strict enough. The crying is from certain people getting away with things that others don't. I know it from other forums I use that threads and players are deleted and banned way faster to stop drama. This shouldn't apply to nation section because drama and a bit of toxicity is good for rvr. The development threads are however a complete joke and many players maybe even myself should have been banned a long time ago.
  17. They already have the most important advantage you can have. That is experience.... Newcomers will be farmed like always with or without the books. A wipe will do nothing and never has because the eco cannot work and it's only time until everyone has everything. 1-2 months and everyone will have everything back again. Only reason devs are wiping is to keep server pop longer because people will grind again. I won't. As I said never again will I start in a basic cutter or farm ai again. It's to much. Even if we can skip with tutorials. With every wipe we only have more to grind and it's the same shit different assets with no actual improvements to late game because inflation is 10000%
  18. Very optimistic launch date. I don't want to be the negative one but in all fairness the game was more stable and better balanced pre structure wipe/patch 2 years ago. How can you know the last patches will solve current issues without testing them? Maybe I am wrong and most likely I have no idea what the vast majority of people want but IMHO the combat system is completely broken and requires major tweaking and testing before release. Call me a pessimistic but I don't think it can be solved in a month. I could go into more details of flaws in combat I see but I guess the majority of them could be solved by removing all mods. Since mods make the game interesting there needs to be tweaking. Simply nerfing them all is something we have never tested. In the past yes but with 10x fewer mods ingame.
  19. Dreamship Suprise! Also you keep making topics in wrong thread.
  20. And? People have the right to ask the same question as many times if they like if they are unclear about something. Gameplay help and guides can never be spam. People that search for questions on google get redirected to threads like this so more is better and even if it is more of the same.
  21. Survival shouldn't be an option but necessary all the time. The way it has been is a joke for years now and bracing in boarding is just not something that should be an option either.

  23. I am not a ferrari fan just because they win. In good times and bad times I support them. I am a toyota fan in wrc and still openly admit lancia is the best team ever....
