  1. Intro Hello, my name is Tate and I've been playing naval action since the beginning of the beta and have about 1000hrs in this game at the time of writing. I've noticed the sad state of the game after a couple of months away and it tugs on my heart because I still love this game very much and feel I need to try to help. Below are some suggestions/opinions on how to make the game better. Open world This is one of the big things I noticed was causing the most problems in my opinion. In short its way too big with too many factions, there really isn't anything bringing people together. My suggestion is to make the map smaller in size to a northern point of Sante Fe, a western point of Salamanca, a southern point of Old Providence, and an eastern point of Port au Prince or something around that size. I know it would cut out many nations that people want to play but, I feel its a sacrifice that needs to be made for the long run. The smaller nations could become AI controlled off map to add trade ships and more PVE combat, they could also be used for server events. It also might be good to increase open world speed a tad due to the fact that many people don't have 2hrs to sail around from one place to another. Combat This is actually really good. I just hope that Naval Action keeps to realism as close as it can in this department. Trading/Economy I feel like the devs are trying to get a deep trading and economy system in place and im fine with that. I don't really have much to say here because I never really got into crafting and there are many people with opinions on this that are in a better place to tell what they think than me. Nations If the devs implement what I suggested in the open world paragraph we would be left with Great Britan, France, Spain, and the Pirates. The 3 major nations would always be at war on a nation level but it won't stop clans from not attacking each other leading to a dynamic diplomacy like before the alliance system was implemented. The Pirates shouldn't be able to do port battles and should have a few towns/free towns scattered throughout the map. They should not be able to make lineship but they can capture and crew them which would keep most people happy while making the pirates more realistic. Ships Im sure everyone is okay with more ships no matter the size, nation or type and im good with the ships we currently have (but it would be great if we had the Constellation ;]). Thank you for reading. Feel free to give your suggestions in the comments below and understand im doing this not to tell the devs what to do but, give MY opinions on how to make the game better and keep it going.
  2. 1. Yes I have been enjoying frigate battles and have been mainly sailing a connie and below. 2. Im not sure about SOL vs SOL as I don't like sailing them very much, but a constitution vs a SOL is very good. I can't sit 1k away and blast a bellona until he dies I actually need to get into 200m to pen him and rake him. 3. Yes I think that lowering the bonus they get to boarding but have a small percentage help with guns/sails. I haven't had many problems penning anything in a reasonable range in the last few patches sailing a connie(24L/42C) and I like the steps being taken to bring more realism into the game.
