LOL More big talk out of a big mouth. If I caught bass with a mouth that big it would be on my wall. And you should NEVER play Mortal Online. Your little antics would get you destroyed by that community. I would personally enjoy watching your character getting priest camped by RPK in that game. And I have seen JPV admit to Christendom being his alt. You can say a lot in global, doesnt mean it is all true.

One can dream....

The problem is that the PVE population is honestly the smallest population in this game. AND with the fact that the AI is a joke until they make an aggressive OW AI to go on the PVE server. It would best used as a training server for noobs. I am not against making a larger "safe" zone around capitals that would give a place for PVE'rs to play on the PVP server and be part of the bigger picture without being on a dead server. It would also give people who are learning a safe place to learn without threat of being hunted to no end.

Of course we will get no response from the dev, it is after "working" hours for him. And he will ignore this post like all the others on this very subject.

That is one of the other minor complaints I have had this whole wipe. They never adjusted the labor, or cost of production of ANYTHING with the reduction of durability. It doesnt hurt me as bad but it is a pain in the butt for many.

Oddly enough there are more in game than on these forums that fight. And I see you here more than in game... what does that say.

Funny they took down the website and tried to pen it on Christendom. FUNNY AS HELL. Can we just ban these sad sacks of wasted genetic material.

So well put I wish I could give a 1000+ likes on that one. You sir have said everything I have been ranting and raging about for months and you did it without using four letter swear words.

The way I figure.... Ships sunk... 1-France 2-Great Briton 3-United States 4-Spain 5-Pirates 6,7,8- Sweden, VP, and Danes.

Funny didnt seem that way at PaP a few weeks ago. Let me see... BLOOD, BLACK, HYDRA, GS6, and a few others. Sounds like more than ONE, UNO, EIN clan. Pirates have the one thing you listed and one unintended feature. The outlaw battle mechanic is a way for the stronger larger clans to enforce their will on the smaller less powerful clans. Which BLACK has done. The unintended mechanic is they can use this outlaw battle mechanic can be used to attack NPC Pirate fleets in a region that is under threat to greatly prolong hostility grinds.

Some factions get a in game mechanic that lets them deal with alts... the rest of us get to listen to the alts talk trash in our nation chat. GG.

You all have been saying this a lot lately. And I highly doubt that would be true. If BLACK was Spanish you would be frustrated and limited. God help you if you were US and tried to deal with clans that dont want to work with you because of what ever reason they have. You wouldnt be able to exact a revenge on them and beat them into line by tagging them and attacking them. Well you could but that would result in a lot of tribunals.

Not all haulers in EVE are slow and sluggish. There are specific ones that are designed as blockade runners. Traders in game dont need to be slow. Trader ships in game need to be the same base speed as their non-trader counterparts. The cargo slows them down enough. It makes ZERO logical sense for a Trader Snow to go 10.9kn while a Snow goes 12.95kn base. Why is the Trader Snow 2 knots slower when empty? Is it because it has half to crew... oh that cant be it, because that is for cargo space.... can it be because it has thinner masts.... nope that is for cargo space too....

It isnt denying them anything. They can still play the game, and it would still be there. It just wont be as big. They will still have access to around 30%-40% of the ships in game. If the developers arent going to be bothered to have aggressive AI on that server why bother with it outside of making it a training server.

I cant help but feel at this point you are being more patronizing than honest. But this is the cynic in me. To be quite frank with you. Most of the problems is the lack of information. You say more ships and UI improvements will bring people into the game, and they will but they wont keep them. What will keep them is more and better information on what is happening IN game. Instead of being in the dark 99% of the time a player should know before they even create a character if it is a dead nation or not. Any new player that joins Spain, Sweden or France in Global right now is in for a hell of a time. The US isnt much better right now either. But how would anyone know if they dont see the active population in that nation on creation. Then we have the issues everyone else mentioned. But this is my take on the situation, I am not part of any clan or guild, I play the game as a solo player, and I do find the game challenging but not impossible.

My 2 cents on the Pirate subject. Pirates should not have any ports, should operate only out of free ports. Pirates should not have a national chat, you are not a nation. Pirates should not be able to capture territory only raid it. Pirates should have a permanent smuggler flag no need to turn it on for them. Pirates should not be able to craft any shipyard over level 2. Pirates should not be able to have a workshop for cannons. Pirates should not be able to have more than 650 crew. (only one pirate in history ever had more than that) Pirates should have pirate refits of every trade ship. (basically faster versions of the current trader ships with more crew) Pirates should have a permanent morale and attack bonus on all boarding actions. (+10morale, +0.025 ATK)

Pirates in game. Pirates in real life...

A man who understands percentages and math.... thank you. It drives me nuts when I see people brag about a 150k profit off of a 150k buy and 2 hours sail. I can make 100k in an hour hunting NPC trade ships in a Snow.

I honestly cant say I have seen a more accurate description of what will happen. Are you a psychic?

That is unfortunate. It has happened to me once. But that unfortunately is the nature of the Internet.

LOL..... Christendom is on more than me. And that says something right there.

The problems as I see it. The servers are setup and described all wrong. You have in this order. EU Server Global Server PVE Server and that is all it says. No information at all. So one who lives in the EU would assume the EU server would be the same as the global server but just based in the EU. And they would be wrong, BUT would be completely unable to move to the global server because of the setup of the servers. Instead of having a brief description for each server on login you have nothing. Which only caters to the EU server growth and death. My suggestions have been made and I will say them again. PVE server needs to change to a limited server or (starter server). Where you are limited to rank 4 max, and it is map size of the Bahamas, the old Rookie zone. Once a player reaches rank 4 they can choose to take a token and go to either Limited RVR server, or the Global server. They will get a redeemable on creation on the server of their choice for their XP crafting and captain level. They should also get a redeemable Brig and Trader Brig. This way they are not starting over in a cutter. They should also have guns on both. 6lb mediums, 25 hull repairs and 25 rig repairs, and 100 rum. As a starting package. This will give them something to start with. Next you kill all missions above 4th rates. You want to fight 1st rates, go hunt them. This isnt that hard to code into the game... and would actually go a long way to fixing a great deal of the server population issues.

Sounds like you are giving up on this project with that last part of the statement. And NA Legends will be a meh hit at best. No offense but the current market for instant action games is flooded. A slow paced age of sail game will be popular for about a month until the next faster paced more exciting less realistic age of sail game comes out.... then the plague of locusts will jump there.

This has been the one post you have made that I agree 100% with. Except I dont even think it is 3 weeks between radical changes.. maybe 2 weeks at best.

No unfortunately you cant. It is annoying.
