  1. Really amusing to read this Thread:

     

    spain came in swinging and with the early game advantage. A lot of boasting. Declaring "total war", the gloves are off, threatening to one port britain.

    now they run, tails tugged tight between their buttocks. Falling apart with internal struggles and yet again: everybody is at fault, except themselves. 

    Quiet enjoyable read, guys. Keep up the Drama ;-)

    Oh that's right its only the British who have players from different timezones!! Oh wait don't we all have a mixture of timezones.. No no no I'm sorry, yes your right its only the hard done by British!

    Oh i thought the lack of Players from Different timezones were the reason for all the server Split tears. Sorry now im confused ?

    But all we hear is how amazing and powerful the British are!! Why is it that almost every other nation has grown in numbers (across both servers) but the British are shrinking!!! 

    Btw, well done Sweden on joining the hatii party.  Next stop Jamaica!!  we can take turns hosting bbqs on the beach!!

    Monkey, that is pretty easy to explain. British habe been composed of Players from alot of timezones. Server Split has Split the British Player base while most other Nations just decided for one server. 

    Players like myself cant really play with all the guys they liked. (ZERG for instance has basically dispanded)

    therefor the British have Not grown nur are weakend. Nothing that wasnt to be expected

    TLDR: Lets take one of the things that is very skill dependent and turn it into a RNG mechanic.

    I'm sorry, i don't care much for realism. I want the combat system to be skill dependent :)

    I want it to be diverse... demasting is (again) too efficient compared to other skills you could akquire

  5. I think that it is an understandable Notion that for a lot of players for the last half year the game hasn't really progressed. 

    Some of the Major updates have been:

    - alliances: going to be turned off

    - crafting changes with fine wood: turned off

    - captain skills: will be turned off and replaced

    - hostility system: will be turned off and replaced 

     

    I know there has been other stuff implemented like land in all battles that are working and helped the game but at this moment it feels like the game is going south fast. 

    Features are being repealed, the community hates each other so much that the remaining 400 players at a time would rather split to different servers then play together anymore. 

    If there ever is a time to worry it is now...

    It is not exploit, it is fair help for english nation who can't even enter in a pb at 00h30 am. Do you imagine  this game for english people without night flip, full gold boarding upgrade and free ship?

    Your level of self righteousness and double standards has reached 9000 yet again ;-)

    All diplomatic approaches to discuss the US changing sides had the explicit agenda to balance the timezones, not to flip the problem on its head. The GB has American time zone players and the Dutch (had) American time zone players, so for the US to switch alliance would be to have opposition in their primetime, and balance the server. The goal was, and would be, to reduce the problems and consequences of night-flips by having defenders and attackers available to both alliances in that time zone, and not, as you say, to night-flip the GB. GB would be able to defend with its American time-zone players.

    That's is all moot at this point, but there's definitely nothing hypocritical about it. It was Sweden and Danmark who spear-headed the initiative to talk to the US before Christmas.

    So which Nation of your alliance was to change to the other side in your proposals?

    I know this is just an example above, but I hope 20 SOL can attack 25 SOL. 

    So you would need 5x BR to be able to tag a larger ship 1:1, then gradually reducing to 1.25x BR.  Then 20 ships can attack 25 comparable ships.

     I like the general idea but hope the curve is a little bit more forgiving. e.G. a 20 SOL fleet should be able to attack a 25 SOL fleet

    I agree with the fireship. If they don't want to get boarded they can avoid this though.

    Still, seems ton be the most (or only) viable option to win. 

    Not taking anything away from you. I just don't enjoy it. 

    Dont really have a lot of time to play due to work commitments but even if I had more time. Not sure I would play a lot more in this meta. I just enjoyed line battles and penetrating ships from more then 100 meters more then brawling and boarding. I guess that's all I'm trying to say.

    The problem is that you guys don't stomp us with gameplay and better portbattlefleets or just by winning portbattles. You guys stomp us with boredom (kiting portbattlesfleets, which both sides do i guess because it's a valid tactic atm) and the flips at non EU primetimes. That has realy hit our morale and many don't give a shit anymore. Also the mighty screening is a factor but again, it's a valid tactic atm.

    Pampatar, La vega, Savannah and Santo Domingo were not lost because of a good portbattles, they were lost because we had not the possibility to field enough players.

    And you Beat the Dutch before the wipe with fake flags, x simultaneous attacks, log outs in front of ports with flags on traders lynxes, flag trading and so on and so on, ... I don't see a difference. Use of game mechanics to maximum advantage. Just different mechanics.

    You have a US player called "God Emperor Trumph", ain't that taking politics into the game already? Christendom use a picture of Donald Trumph here on forums? I say you can elect your ingame Trumph president and build a wall around the DK-NO you nightflipped. A harmless joke, nothing negative there. It was not supposed to stir any emotions. I'm not assuming anything.

    Getting one ported by night-flipping does not feel like defeat, we are not even gaming, cause we are not online. Although you sure seem to count it as a victory. I can tell you, 90% of danish PvP clan members stopped when you took Georgia and Santo, because you had harassed with weekday attacks for every week 6 weeks. And yes it is different, US+EU coalition vs EU coalition, in addition to the low server pop, we cannot defend 3AM and we dont wanna set alarm anymore after last time. We didn't loose any fights to ya, have fun taking half empty PB's. 

    If he hasn't  changed recently "God emperor trump" is a Brit player and if I recall correctly comes from one of the Scandinavian countries.
