[Lost items from cancelled contract]

FYI

I had contract placed in Gustavia for barrels and I've cancelled it being in Orjenstad outpost. After teleporting to Gustavia items were not there/contract was not there... even after reloging

[Patch thoughts.]

I like the idea of one dura ships... but with such a high grindin level as at the moment and propably game mechanics goin from one extreme to next one (cause so many things've been revamped and need another testings) makes me feel that maybe its better to wait for full release in 2019 :D:D:D

[Press Gang Bug?]

PS: one more try as follows:

 

I bought crew in port to 300 and went out once more. I boareded 2 ships and hat ~380 crew afterwards (and put 2 men on each of the NPC ships).

 

After sending both ships to outposts in battlescreen I had exactly 304 crew. So it seems, that you cant get more crew through boarding than you had when leaving the port on the first place. I am almost sure, that this mechanic worked different a few days ago.

 

Can anyone else share his/her experiences with press gang perk lately?

 

I think had same issue...I was like missing around 200 from 1100 crew total so took ~790 crew on my Buca for boarding solo 200xp mission to see can I get free crew through boarding. Had two 3rd rates and filled my ship to 840 but after leaving mission had same ammount as before entering mission which was ~790

thanks for info will check it out and compare

Did you test the speed during turns in stiffness ships ? Compare how much speed you gain/lose on a 180º turn from port to starboard beam reaches.

 

I didn't Heth... bu t I assume that you did. Can you share more details?

I think stiffness should work as turning upgrade. Heeling level is something so precious that right now almost every one is getting rid of stiffness boats.

[Battle Entry Timer really is too short]

First of all Im not following every post in that matter so appologize if something was mentioned or there are like tons of same topics (I found this one as some of the latest and "busy")

 

I would extend 2 minutes battle entry to 5 minutes with penalty of distance:

 

If you are within certain range of your port penalty would not be applied

 

If you are out of range of your port then after 2 minutes you would spawn:

 

- 3rd minute to closest enemy 500 meters

- 4th minute 1km to closest enemy

- 5th minute 1,5 km to closest enemy

Guys where can I find more detailed info for inbuilt upgrades. I mean with stats for certain colours. Like Rigging Quality or Planking or even Crew Space? There is only info about speed and build strength on wikia...

[Ship textures]

I would def. give a go for every nation unique ship paintings for each ship class (would be very refreshing to see some variety of ships during for example ingers/constis only battle on both sides)

[Pirate Mechanics Vote]

Im new player so not sure if there anyone mentioned about it so apologies if Im repeating but pirates could have loyality points for PVE or/and PVP and exchange them for ships which are unique and accessible only for them. Also mercanary market mechanic would be awesome... like nations could hire pirate group or groups (and only pirates could work as mercs) as mercanaries for help and assistance
