    Captain, this is another issue (not related to yours) that is under investigation yet. Your case is caused by temporary connection issues.

    Thank you for reply.

    A member of my clan has said could be caused by NA using Peer to Peer connection

  2. Hi guys.

    Today I was attempting to take par in a PB.

    I was disconnected in excess of 6 times.

    It took me back to log in screen. wen logged back in was in PB battle but then despite being re invited into group. M y ship had no controls. Though it was taking damage.

    This as a I say happened a number of times !

    I logged back in every time until the battle had ended.

    I did do a but report every time. 

    Anyone else having same problem please.

    Have the Devs sorted it out for you ?

    Many thanks all.

  3. It is annoying.

    I bet we have at some time all done it ! 😐

    I'm not a new player.  But it seems that a couple times a year I screw up and delete something, instead of splitting it.  I do lots of splitting to balance out the loads when trading and/or fishing.  I destroyed a half a million reals worth of Hull repairs in an instant. Argggg.    Once I accidentally destroyed 600 tons of Dorado.   Another time I destroyed more than 2,000 Doubloons.  Also 2,800 tons of Logwood.

    I sympathize with your pain.  I trade a lot, and I'm clicking on the UI almost constantly.  Every now and again a mistake happens and suddenly the wrong buttons have been selected. When we are clicking lots it's easy to just keep the flow going and click on "Confim".  Then it is too late.

    I agree with the OP.  It's my own fault.  I seriously doubt that they are trolling us.  I'm sure they have other priorities. I should be more careful, but it would be very kind if the @Dev would move the "Destroy" button down to the end of the list.  I could live with accidentally clicking on the "Send to clan warehouse".

    I should of clarified Im on pve

    Thanks for all your help guys!

    If not in one. Join a clan. They will give you a lot of help and advice. Even ships.

    On the PVE you do not need to use a full crew for number is says to have. As there are only NPC’s it’s safe to underman when trading. Even in combat as long as not too much under crewed.

    It does get easier.

    The tutorials are useful and lead to the exams. They are not to bad. The last one is more difficult where you have to sink one ship, then a second spawns. But nice goodies for completing it. You are given 90 minutes for this one, so take your time. It is a bit of a pain but saves a lot of game time in raising your rank

    Timers for port battles are set by the Defending nation.Either to best represent there best chance of defending or to avoid the best chance for the attackers to attack.You pays your money you gets your ticket.

    Not perfect but it's what we have.

    Thank you for that. Much appreciated.

    Maybe I could just mention a little more on the tone used by Nations.

    Perhaps it has always been there and I am only now starting to notice.

    A couple of examples from my own experiences.

    Earlier this year I attacked an NPC trader. During which a player from that nation attacked me. Being in the distance I carried on and sank the trader. Then turned my attention to the player. Seeing it was a higher ranking than my ship and that I had sustained damage. I decided to ease away to carry out repairs. While still firing my stern chasers. The player continued to follow me but my speed was sufficient to keep a distance. Whilst this was happening we were communicating with each other in a friendly manner. As my ship repaired I was deciding on either turning and attacking or to pull away and escape. We continue chatting. Most respectful to each other. I decided I would set full sail and pull away ! The enemy player said you win. You are very fast. Take care my friend. I wished him well.

    The other example. Towards the end of January I was attacked by a pirate. It lasted approximately 30 minutes. I was in a higher rate ship. But he was obviously experienced and new his job well. Towards the end I thanked him for the lesson and hope I would soon be able to match his level of sailing in combat. He thanked me and we parted with kind words to each. Yes I was sunk.

    So where has this respect gone. Or is it not normally there. Is this me being naive. I seen no reason to become overly hostile. It is a game !

    Don’t get me wrong. I do not like losing. But it is a “game”, I play for enjoyment.

    Sorry (I do waffle on !). Along with other players I have noticed a large increase in the number of players now on line. I know the debate goes on about the ganking  of new players and not wanting them to leave NA. But I find the real animosity shown by Nation to Nation. Player to player. Could cause players to leave NA too.

    Cheers 🍻

  6. I would still consider muse to be a noobie.

    I must admit I am surprised at the real hostility being shown in this “game” by Sweden. Perhaps others too which I have not yet seen.

    I do not pretend to know all of the facts.

    I play for enjoyment. I tag other players. I get tagged by them. All part of the PVP server.

    Checking the upcoming PB’s, I was surprised to see there was one due to start at 3am. Even though both countries were European.

    Surly common sense should not allow this to take place. The attacker I assume has worked out/arranged they can have sufficient players to win.

    This in my humble opinion is gamesmanship and should not be allowed by the devs.

    PB’s would be better timed for when sides are able to field sufficient players.

    Sorry, is this how NA works. Am I being naive.

    Regards all.

  7. The above seems to clarify it all.

    This is part of a guide recently placed on this forum.

    My apologies to the member for not knowing his name.

    But thank you.

    Not sure if you understood your collocutor. When you start on PvE server, you cannot take your ships or possessions over from PvP server - they stay there and wait for your return. On PvE server you will find only the basic cutter ready for you, and from there your journey starts anew...

    Zero reals, zero experience.

    But it won't take you long to advance. Minus the risk of falling into the hands of an enemy.

    Most people will advise you to start by doing economy missions first, delivering passengers and then cargo (for which you buy or capture a trader brig) for instant cash without investment.

    Hi,

    Many thanks for your reply.

    I assumed I would have to start afresh. But I thank you for confirming this.

    I would hope with the experience gained on PVP. It would enable me to advance reasonably well.

    My concern was if I would lose my gains made on PVP etc.

    Wanted to make sure could use both severs at the same time so to speak.

    Many thanks.

    Best wishes

    You will have 2 entirely different characters, nothing is adapted from PVP to PVE or PVE to PVP. Your PVP-char will keep everything it has, and your PVE char will start from zero.

    You can have a own Character for each server, who are completely unaffected by one another.

    Thank you for such a quick reply.

    And I assume I keep rank, ships, money etc from PVP.

    I just start as a noobie  on PVE ?

  11. Maybe this answer is already available but not been able to find it.

    If I wish can I play on PVP and PVE ?

    So far have played on on just PVP. But would like to try PVE too.

    Can this be done ?

    Though I assume I would have to start from scratch on the PVE. But still keep my rank etc on the PVP ?

    Many thanks.
