With the patch on 21.09.2020 the "Group Invite" button was moved into a dropdown in chat: As this is one of the most used buttons in game quality of life would improve hugely if it was easier to acess by moving it out of the dropdown menu into the first screen that comes up when rightclicking.

GB Player in a Le Req tagged a Vic without guns just outside LT He sat next to the Victory and just sank him without the Victory (Newp11/Pirate) trying to do anything. More evidence in the recording below:

@admin @Ink any chance we get that PB resceduled for tomorrow if these server issues cannot be fixed soon?

Just becuase I think it might need mentioning here: This was directly infront of a PB and all that was done by the swedish player was makeing sure the russians could not enter PB. He let the go as soon as PB was won for the swedish side.

Just fyi for devs: The instance with flipped ships also laggs like crazy

The same just happened to the Swedes trying to flip Truxillo:

Having to do PvE (hostillity missions) to achive things in RvR.

I hate you for having me do this John but I went trough all discord msgs an I think I found what you are talking about: Some great drama happened between those two but I am afraid it is too much for the forums to handle This is all the conversation on the discord about said multiflip. Yes we said we could flip a port and we did not (shame on us). But by what Cid said it seemed like you guys would not flip anything either. So yes there was talk of a multiflip but it was not us who told you to flip ports, it was you saying you would flip ports and asked us to join. After this everyone agreed we should properly work together and organize another flip. Who is right and who is wrong here si strongly debatable, but what did not happen is someone telling you to flip ports and then us not flipping ports ourselves.

You took a quote out of context into another thread... I just edited it as I just noticed we are on another thread here

EDIT: I just noticed we are on a compleatly different topic here, how about you stop taking quotes out of context? I can't remember one either, but I remember begging on Nation chat/TS for people to come which is one of the least fun and most demotivating things. But yes we always filled our own pbs and had some screeners most of the time. Just for context of where this quote came from: We are talkign about the Danes screening for GB at ports like Salamanca, which most of the old clans or people playing less and not having all their crafting/ranking up done just didn't feel like participating in. I totaly understand that and I don't blame anyone playing the game his way. We are not talking about the very few danish Pbs that actually happened at that time

If you were not too lazy to reead the entire convo, this was our scout outside to figure out a way to get into a PB. Thanks for bringing it up becuase you made me look it up on the discord, following conversation is actually a great read!

On a more serious note though: Yes you screened for us and no one ever tried denying that. Most of the RvR against Russia happened when we were still in Denmark, where we stuggeled motivating anyone outside our clan for any RvR which is the reason we left the nation. Yes we did not screen for you with 20 players like you did for us simply because there were not 20 players. We brought what we had to Salamanca as Danes and if I am not toaly mixing things up we were on TS with you for that one to try and organize. My point here is: Everyone seems to forget that we switched nation about 4 months ago, shortly after LAMA switched to GB. In the months leading up to the Nation switch out clan was very very inactive, people had other things to do and were not playing the game. So nice of you coosing a time where we had no people to come screening becuase they were not playing the game. That must have happened more than 5 months ago now as I can not find any swede who rememebrs it, which suggests it was back when Denmark was involved. If it was later than that this complaint never reached any of us as no one knows of this happening. If it happened or not doesn't matter anyway so can we just cut it out of the conversation and focus on more recent events? A lot of Events you keep bringing up here John, happened many many months ago. The past few weeks before we flooded the discord with people and started argueing about what happenes at Santiago were some of the most productive weeks of cooperation. GB got the whole Port au Prince region and Les Cayes out of it. Sweden gained a foothold at Tumbado and Russia lost it's ports close to Aves. You keep bringing up past events to justify your actions as a justification for what your actions. How about both sides just call it what it is: We have different views on how to play the game and neither side wanted a compromise. And exactly this is why we call it a backstab. You broke the only unwritten agreement that existed dodging our questions about your position for a few days.

this is BS

Yes and after all of our Privateers got in they agreed on having some fun outside and fighting the swedish screeners. Afterall it is a game and meant to be fun. Big shoutout to Rook for getting the GB screeners organized for that fight!

This is the player in question at the time of tribunal, sadly no one could get any in battle screenshots of what exactly happened but worth checking in the logs in my opinion.

I totaly agree that many community suggestions are bad BUT there arte also good ones. Chaninging the frontline system and reducing BRs resulted in way more RvR. That being said, I agree with what was said above, sometimes the community suggests things that are not good for the game and if those thingsget implemented in any way shape or form there is no shame in scrapping them again if they do not work out. I think Sweden is a decent example here, we just about got the nation together and working towards common goals in RvR and we already have players loosing interest in RvR/the game becuase of the NPC raids. Yes, your wargame should be different, because games are played for fun and we already have a lot of freedom in the game which causes players to get upset becuase of gray areas in the rules/mechanics. I am NOT saying there should be a strict ruleset, however I think there should be no way a clan can loose it's port to an opposing nations alt clan without that port being taken by another nation in a PB before.

Community was asked for feedback on BRs. There was an extensive list of small to medium changes which people kind of agreed on to make RvR more fun. One of them was changing BR limits of Ports, but the bigger one was changing ship BRs as with the current combat model and BR everything but 1st rates is useless in RvR. Lowering regional ports is nice but it doesn't change the fact that, besides Russia, GB and Sweden, everyone struggeles to get 25 or even 20 player to play Portbattles.

While we're at it: I suggest detailed patchnotes so we actualy know what new buildings etc do.

Stop spreading more information here... it's bad enough we have a spy already

And exactly that is why I probably enjoy fighting you guys by far the most on this server when it comes to great battles. Not saying I did not enjoy fighting most other nations/clans, but most fights turn into a snowball for or against you pretty quickly.

I actually love this idea, would add another reason to try and control all ports belonging to one capital. Also makes offence a great way to defend, by taking one of the small ports in the Region your enemy gets the missions from. I agree, that's what I try to say in 2.. At the moment there is no real frontline in most parts of the map.

Spammed enter and posted by accident

Since release not much actual RvR which wasn't against NPCs has happened but what I am noticing is many clans/people are afraid or incapable of doing any meaningfull RvR with the current frontline system, as they lack players to fill a 20-25k BR port and also have screening. I agree the frontline system made RvR a lot better, but I think some teaks could be done to it. So here are a few points I think could be changed in the frontline system to make it more interesting (all below are my personal opinions): 1. Make it so a Nation has to take 1/2 "small ports" before they can attack the Capital that belongs to them. Advantages: A nation can not loose it's crafting port in two days, loosing crafting ports will dirve players away from the game so some stability there would be very nice. Smaller BR ports are easier for a smaller nation to fill and would probably lead to more RvR. A Nation has more time and tries to defend their Important ports, and the closer a nation gets to the main port of another nation the mopre people will get involved In my opinion taking ports should be hard. At the Moment I see many nation giving up entire regions when the Capital falls. Nations don't have much reason to attack small ports, as there is no reason to take them to get to the Capital you want to get to. Disadvantages: Very hard to hurt a nation, by taking the crafting port. Upgrading ports is a great money drain so the more upgrading happens the better for the games economy. 2. Decrease the range of how far away you can take missions for Ports .At the moment Denmark can attack Santo Domingo, Puerto Plata and Grand Turk from La Mona. I feel this is a bit too far. Advantages: . The idea, at least for me, behind a frontline system is that Nation can not just appear half way across the map with 1 or 2 port battles. This again leads to less RvR as you can just "skip" regions you are not interested in. Disadvantages: Some regions of the map will probably never/rarely see any RvR as they are too hard to get to (Mexican Gulf/Central America) 3. Give some great rewards for taking ports to all people in the nation (or at least to the ones in clans on the friendslist of a defending/attacking clan). Yes Victory marks are great but probably gonna inflate soon when port upgrading is done. THis could lead to people being more interested in RvR. I am thinking of Admiral chests, maybe some ship Permits or the sort. Advantages: Casual players have more reasons to participate in offensive RvR People have a few more reasons to go and attack/defend small ports once the capital has fallen. Disadvantages: Can't see any feel free to add them in the comments Hope we can start a discussion about RvR here and maybe find a common line most players would like to see in RvR
