    Pala, there are many ways to communicate. I understand that devs will not go into discussion with people, but will still post patch notes and read what people reply. There will be also mods who still will care for the community. This is a good change, and don't prevent exchange of information and feedback.

     

    It works when on every idea, even the stupidiest ones, you say "thanks for feedback", or don't say anything, and then do what YOU think is best. You only risk misunderstanding someone's idea when you don't go into discussion. Weighting it out, it's less of a risk than enflaming people due to going into discussion.

    Don't get me wrong I don't think it's a bad idea per se. Though the picture it creates is not too positive. Fighting heated up communications with a "comm stop" creates the feeling of being pushed to hard, being tired of talking or in the worst case abusing ones power to silence critics. I unterstand it, but as Malachy said, it should have happened earlier. 

    The lesson i draw from all this is once again, that people obviously are often unable to find a healthy way of interpersonal communication in social media or the Internet in general. Lack of facial expression and gestures leads to misunderstandings, but instead of asking further, assumptions are made leading to even more mistaken interpretations. 

    So yes I understand the move, it's just sad it has come so far.

    Wealth Tax and Starting Cash

    50k per day would be 18,25 Million per year or a property tax rate of 730%. 😬 Not to forget that we have to pay for each purchase and each sale 10% value added tax, which is already the equivalent of more than 50% of our profit.

    Will Cayman Island turn into a tax haven then? Or is there any game which plays in Switzerland?

    May I offer my service as in game tax consultant? Charging only 10k a day or 250k a month. 

    First advice is for free: simply put money into the clan warehouse to hide it from the authorities. If someone comes up with the idea to tax wealthy clans I request to form a entity model called foundation with legal capacity which donates 5k daily to nationals with socially disadvantaged background, therefore not being taxable at all.

    Jokes aside, when it comes to taxes it gets complicated to balance things, therefore I can't support @Anolytics ideally nice idea.

    According to an old saying there usually is a silent majority, mostly more conservative. To both ends of the spectrum there usually is also a more radical and more noisy crowd. Open communication means to deal especially with these tips of the range. 

    There is three basic points to consider for @admin imo:

    1) do you believe to have created a better product thanks to communities feedback or not?

    2) do you believe the consequences of open communication are a reason to sell more or less copies of your product?

    3) are the ressources you put into open communication (nerves, time,...- as non-PR person it's not primary your job) worth it?

    Battle Rating [BR] for doing battle

    it's still clear many don't understand the fundamental issue of the BR

    " The freedom to attack."

    If I understand you correctly: no restrictions but the 3 minute timers? And what exactly is there much different from now but 1 minute? Now you can join for 2 min and THEN BR restrictions are effective? How does it - under these circumstances - limit you?

    BR should in my eyes be calculated on mass /guns/crew/gun loadout power/hold / and upgrades

    That's something entirely different than what you're asking in OP. And I would support a BR based on equipment, at least mods and ship quality. Though it's probably a real mess to calculate it and very difficult for pb commanders.

    Regarding your OP poll: how is it connected to your example of an Inger and three Indiaman? What further advantage do you need with such a fleet?

    Nassau Patrol : Bug in PVP Solo-Patrol

    But all ships can have solo duels in the solo patrol area. 

    Do I assume right then, that e.g. a 3rd rate will drag a 5th rate in a duel including PZ RoE in the frigate PZ? Or does your statement only apply for Nassau Patrol (limited by shallows)?

    too many nations?

    I think I missed the physical alliances era. Was it just restricted to RvR or could you not attack ANY player from a nation you are allied with in open world at all?

    It was horrible for people searching for PvP. It got so manifested after a time, people wouldn't even think about changing their votes.

    Very rare footage of Hachi playing his first Computer game 20 years ago :)

    Think it's this strange mixture of cheap techno beats in addition to the constantly reappearing primates which made him the retard he is now.
