If only there was Green on Green you (R4VEN) guys would have smashed BL4CK, right?
Time to call in Spanish Inquisition to flip Nuevitas. Don't forget to join Hostility Mission to feed them kills for faster and safe flip.
PS
Pathetic low skill losers I despise you, but hope Koltes will keeping posting "Pirates are so happy" and "We did so much more in last 2-3 months than you did in last eternity" in Global Discord that thing is funny
You despise me? My job is done lol.

I'm told it was an ego fest between Koltes and 7grams. Koltes left BL4CK to make RAVEN or whatever it is, 7grams opened all pirate ports they owned and quit the game.
Saviors of the pirate nation.
I will explain briefly what happened.
7grams and approx a dozen players decided to quit Naval Action.
Koltes who formed BL4CK while most of us stopped playing till release who then passed leadership back to 7grams when he came back to the game asked 7grams of you guys are quitting can someone else have leadership be it Koltes or Duncan.
7grams in usual form flipped out thinking people trying to steal his clan and decided to hello kitty with the ports.
I left Bl4ck as well due to the fact 7grams told players not to defend Cuba. I refuse to be lead by a coward.

I know you haven't played in a very long time, but lets be honest here. Me and you done a lot of boarding in our days and we never went without cannons. You don't make a board fit Navy Brig any way it doesn't have the crew and you don't go into a deep water hostile missions without cannons and try to get boarded. You might not know but one of the great things added since you last played is broad side from your actual cannons with the ['] keys so you want cannons to do damage to the ship and crew while boarding. I watched the video and it looks just like these guys where trying to block shots and get sunk. Going into a mission to get sunk to reduce hostility is against the game rules.
Mate I hardly play, was keen to get back into it, tried it here and there but the whole game is going backwards. Pirates never got a Pirate mechanic, they control ports like nationals.
Pirates should have raid port mechanic. make them pillage and plunder, mercenaries for hire.

Devs wana fix it put a code in you cant leave port with out cannons. Its a sandbox MMO you can do what. So many carebears.
-
The game lets you put cannons on or not? its your choice to sail with our without.
How is that a broken game mechanic or exploit?
End of the day Captains choice. Games fuct anyway.
So no cannons should make an easier target to sink? Or maybe he is board fit took cannons off for speed? So many variables yet you cry poor me. No wonder players dont come back.

We accepted plenty of support from several clans. SNATCH offered nothing. We even had to delete a couple of things in the process because we allowed clans to contribute at will.
You've ignored my question twice now. Would you let a clan that betrayed you take over something you invested hours into creating?
Just admit you have sand in your vachina

The flag system itself wasn't bad, it was the port battle windows that were set around when you could pull a flag, and the resulting false flag/alt purchase scenarios created that made it undesirable. The waiting around, babysitting ports whose windows were open sucked, but the fact that we had player-generated PvP zones was far, *far* preferable to grinding up PvE hostility. PvE hostility generation to create a port battle is pure and utter horse hockey. I honestly can't believe it survived this long, and especially now where we are reliant on RNG fleets and the mechanics to farm them instead of region-specific missions... it borders on dev incompetence.
The fact is we need RAIDS NOW. Some kind of player-generated PvP-generating content should be the hostility generating mechanism of choice. They should be used to concentrate action on a port, not a region (regions are too large)... and perhaps they could come in different flavors (port raids vs. war supply drops, etc.).
Flag system was abused but good too as well. Maybe they could have had a system where a nation could only have one active flag per hour or every hour. That way people from different time zones could do port battles.

The same way the Dutch will take all of your territory. Oh wait, they won't, because they don't have enough players.
I'm not talking us vs them attitude. This is a mere nation A has small pop of say 20 - 30 players vs nation B with 150 players.
Would be good to see small nations be able to have a go at times.

No offense but wars are often won by the one with the most numbers.
I dont like the cowardly act of hiding in a battle before a port battle, exploiting a broken mechanic. Yes it is an exploit.
You abuse a known issue, there is no timer from joining a port battle from any battle. Thus bypassing the chance at an OW fight with anyone.
That's ok for a large nation but what about smaller nations who can just field 25 players. How do you propose they send out screeners? Vs a nation with a larger pop who can afford screeners.

Current meta is PB fleet on there way.
Defender attacks fleet.
Kites enemy.
Enemy escapes defender attacks and kites again.
No port battle happens no Naval Action happens.
People go to bed. Waste of time. People start to leave the game.
A different system is needed. All the work goes into grinding to setup a PB and then it doesn't happen. Is piss poor game mechanics.
If the defenders didn't counter grind hostility then there next chance is the PB not out side playing kite the enemy.
People want action not wasted time. I rather win or lose in the game field not on the side line.

Let me rephrase, an enemy Surprise tags my Privateer. After some passes the circle hits us and either one of us turns to run. We each have very different profiles so no more battle will happen. Who still has the option to leave?
Ok I think you missed the concept of a Battle Royale style. Have you played Player Unknown Battlegrounds? 100 players slug it out till one victor.
So the attacker attacks with his intention to attack and kill not run and grief like a girl. So the guy defending can still escape as the circle will still be big at the start. But if they both fight and decide to run well the first to leave loses and the other is victories. The defending ship could put damage the attacker forcing him to die or surrender.
For this to work ships of similar BR would need to implemented for attacking.
The old days we used to buy a flag with the intention of a battle without even planting it, we had numerous open world battles because the screen fleet would try to sink the flag. Some of those open world battles were a lot of fun.
-
Hence the battle circle would get smaller as the battle progressed if you escape before the circle goes smaller well done but if they keep you tagged in sooner or later you can't run and forced to fight.
Fleeing maybe seen as treason. Keyword maybe for the trolls.

If the devs ban every player for finding a broken game mechanic there will be no one left playing. My friends on the national side have admitted they will do what ever it takes broken mechanic wise to win. So instead of blaming each other go to the devs and fix it after all it's alpha for the last 10 years. hello kitty all this forum crying I've got mates who want to play this game and they read through the forums and said this is more toxic than League if Legends.
My suggestion for port battles and open world is battle royale style. One circle that shrinks over time forcing players to fight to the death. Most ships alive wins. Thus this eliminates people running from battle. If you go out the circle just like old pb mechanic after 5 min you take water and die.
now for open world tagging if you are the tagger same thing one circle that closes in and if you are the attacker you have no escape option or surrender as you initiated the fight you finish the fight this will stop grieving. No hit and runs. If you get attacked and are a defender you can still out run and have a chance to escape but if the attacker wants to grief then he can't leave battle and has to carry through his intention of attacking.

Pursued by the Turkish Fleet (6 ships of the line, 2 frigates, 2 corvettes), Russian brig Mercury engaged in unequal battle with line ships Selimiye (110 guns) and Real-bei (74 guns) near the Strait of Bosphorus. After damaging the ships one by one, the brig escaped pursuit
So.... yes
Link or it didn't happen

You're probably right, which really says a lot about how useless first rates really are.
The first rate fights I've been in mostly consisted of 4th and 5th rates catching a 1st rate on the high seas and stealing it.
I would bet more 1st rates have been stolen in this game than have ever been sunk. They're more like a trophy than a practical fighting ship.
I feel sorry for you for never experiencing an epic 25v25 first rate battle they are a real pleasure and awesome battle to hear all the canons go off and the tactics used.
Yes they are slow which requires more tactics than using fast ships.
but honestly why did people bring 4-5 rates to a 1st rate battle? That only hinders your nations performance.

Please provide screenshots of these chat conversations and send them over to @Ink. If you need help setting up a successful tribunal post I suggest taking a look at this one that was created against the US alt that you personally used to hide in battle with for about an hour last weekend and avoid a screening fleet. That alt was banned for 2 weeks and was confirmed to be a pirate alt.
Until that tribunal post goes up I suggest you don't make baseless accusations. I believe @admin did say those are punishable.
Hey rubberneck can you read what Ink wrote?
He never said Pirate alt. He said alt. From your friends on Discord they said it was your alt.
Your tactics are starting to unravel to hold us out. What will you come up with next?
May I suggest you going to PVE you might find it better for your playstyle. Oh wait you cant flip empty PB over there for marks dam.
The biggest exploiters are the nationals using dodge tactics and when caught out cry wolf to the devs so that they dont get caught and blame the pirates. Im sick of the shit and you wonder why people leave the game.
Everytime a false accusation is made without proof the devs should shutdown a thread.

ye of little faith
If given the time from external forces my clan along with the coordinated effort of a few others would have ended the triple alliance and allied attempted to set up alliances with smaller factions to help them grow. Also attempted to set up meetings first between national factions and later planning to set up meetings with all factions to help better the community. Still on the board if anyone wants to although as of right now tensions are a bit too hot.
I applaud you for trying to organize a meeting I remember the meeting last year of the small nations and I think it was Harley or something like that who organized it and received a lot of flak especially from the US who had over 140 ports and wouldn't spare 5 for Spain lol.
But I will say giving Spain some ports bought back a clan to the game so in turn it worked we got some player pop back.
I don't care what nation your on but anything to suppport more players on this server I will help.

All rightfully so, no argument there. If you beat a dog into a corner and continue with the stick do you expect much to change though.
I agree mate. I always respect your posts and I at times will go off track.

Wow, I might have to wipe away a tear or two here. So touching.
I think what's really happening here is you guys are proselytizing by pretending to be friendly. That's how it all starts. Next thing you know the forum is lit up with who converted to who for what reason.
Wow mate I've given away 8 first rates in a week since coming back after 4 months not playing to help new people who came to the server and asked for nothing in return. Some where nationals too who asked as I put it in global.
i think it's more like you guys are jealous that Pirates are trying to help this server yet wish the nationals did it first. It's no competition but a team effort. We invited everyone to participate.
Do I have to remind you how Pirates gave French and Dutch ports and took ports off US for Spain again. Tell me something good the nationals have done on this server for server health. Enlighten me.

Someone needs to just close this thread. It was troll bait from the start. Then turned into adults bullying and bickering like a bunch of preteens. At least Cordova keeps his mouth shut which is more than what I can say for the people that state they are better than him.
Keeps his mouth shut from guilt he started the whole Pirate war with Britain and all it would take for a diplomatic end was a man to own up to his actions.
Cowards will always hide mate. Just like prison the snitches hide in the corners and avoid people.
scum of the earth.
Also this has nothing to do with Cordova, the war ended with him when the port wipe happened. Anyone who brings him up after port wipe hasn't got over it.
Think of it like a season port wipe happened Pirates proved their point in that season. Onto new diplomacy and fresher things now.

OneEyedSnake, you really need to grow up. You don't put any effort into your arguments and are representing the Dutch very poorly. I actually feel very sorry that they are led by someone who can't do much more than complain on forums all the time.
And if you are going to try to make a more lengthy post, try not to make it look like an obvious rant. Seriously, that paragraph takes up most of my screen. It's actually hard to read because you forgot how to use proper grammar.
Its why another Dutch joined us today

Mate I’m pissed to what happened. A returning player who can only play causally due to work commitments.
Peoples egos ruin it for people who just want to play.
As a long time officer of bl4ck I asked 7grams numerous questions and he ignored them. I left bl4ck for my personal reasons and stated I would join any pirate clan who is willing to play the game minus the politics.
You can choose to assume I’m involved or take my word for who I am.
