I wonder if they can do both. A single player mode that so many here seem to want and then a MMO sandbox that seems popular in the poll as well?

The potential is there it seems for a ground breaking game thats for sure. Not sure what the Devs vision is though, i hope we as players can help them decide I would love to see a sandbox on the Oceans. Even if it is a freshly made up fantasy ocean world where players can explore and build their own empires and join forces, have massive wars. I just envision like an open world type game but using Dreadnought era ships, shipping, trade ships, maybe even a basic land forces mini game for conquering land. Imagine having to escort troop transports! Early submarines , convoys, early air power and carriers. They could have players start out as a businessman, trade, make basic trade ships, earn their way up to a trade power or buy their way into military power. Then players join other players to form trade unions or alliances. Profits go up, but so do risks. Work your way up to your own shipyard, in your own city, with your own people, taxes, army and navy. Then as you progress you design more ships, join in ever more important global sea battles and on and on in an endless sandbox of thousands of players in a massive world of oceans and islands. Sounds neat..but I will be happy to see what the Devs come up with also for this game. I like what i see. I love world of warships but mainly for the ship porn aspect and just playing around with what the ships can do. It gets boring after awhile just a rinse and repeat type game. I hope the Devs do not go the world of warships route for this game.

Not trying to sound like a dick, but at what point do you think this game will reach 15,000 active monthly players? Would tickers be an issue with maybe....200 active crafters?

when you guys make this huge change can you also test out scrapping the multi durability mechanic and just have ships be 1 dura. I never understood why this game , if it wants to be catering to pvp, goes with the multi dura mechanic because that takes soooo much away from the thrill of pvp and possibility of losing a beloved ship. Its like EVE Online, one of the reasons EVE Online became so popular is because of its amazing pvp, the real danger of losing a ship you worked hard for. That is not a crutch that is a huge plus for gaming. sure you may not want to lose that ship at the time but later you realize the thrill of losing the ship was far more real than knowing you can just rinse and repeat with 4 more durability. so i am all for your changes if you scrap the durability mechanic.

1. wanting paint but there is no way to get any to customize my ship while a select few in the game get paint WTF? 2. New ships that only a few people get in the game but 90% of the players have no access too, WTF? 3. Interface in port is horrible, not even a view of my ship in port and its buggy as hell. 4. ships are too fast in battles. i mean 7 and 6th rates move faster and turn better than race cars in this game. slow it down to reality for all ships and make each cannon ball hit mean something. 5. its not fun having to sail everywhere to move stuff, i dont have that kind of time. give me the option to send my stuff via a AI fleet or something and if that ai fleet gets ganked then oh well, at least i still have a job.

Imagine if your favorite game you played for a year or years, since the devs can do whatever they want anyways, the devs say "well, we are rereleasing this game for a certain amount of money and updates are now called expansions, because of these changes we are wiping out all players assets to start fresh" any player in any game would be like WTF? WHY? what good does that serve customers?

many players are going to leave this game if they take away all of the players assets they worked countless hours for yeah this game is in development stage, but it might as well have been released because we PAID for it like any other game. the game is going through expansions LIKE ANY OTHER GAME. why would they even care to wipe out players assets with the excuse that its just now being released, do they think it is going to make any new player joining happier? why would any current player want to lose all of their stuff? it makes no sense to me.

Totally yes!

It's interesting that the guy who takes pride on the forum of being a troll wants threads locked when it is convenient for him. I have read over i think four or five threads on this british war and easily the one making the most comments is Hodo, yet you talk about "drama" as if it comes from other people. I think Hodo is more active on the forums running his fingers than he is in the game helping britain. Snap!

Hodo, Its so fun to watch someone with a big mouth that keeps losing...its like watching a little yip yip dog bark at a wolf . keep us entertained Hodo

what the brits did tonight was laughable at port antonio. Here's how i see it basically. CKA is the north korea of the server and like china, britain is stuck with their little annoyance as CKA chest pounds for pride. CKA's dear leader kim jong cordova pretends to care while the rest of britain burns around him. cordova and his crew are so funny how they talk about they wont bend the knee or never surrender, but the fact is they have already lost and it is only through pathetic fake pride they pretend to fight on as if its some honor. yeah cka.. you guys are real winners lol keep calling for help from the usa and pvp1 to save your last ports.
