i would love a tweaked version where you would have a light vote for OW engagements only where everyone could participate in the nation and then a heavier one that included port battles vs one another which was like a "full alliance"

just put him on ignore, the devs wont do anything about it

some big mighty mo logic here

totally agree, along with the port bonuses and seasoned woods brings the stats on the ships so far off the base stats that any ship can maximize the stats in several areas

none

my take on the Port bonuses is that it shouldnt be possible to specialize in all kind of brands maximizing the ship in all areas, but the port should rather specialize in 1 of the 4 branches

your solution is to pay a clan from an other nation to capture the port and hand it over to any of your other prefered clans. (trustissues inc)

its really unfortunate that this option is still ingame, it takes away alot of the realism and immersive gameplay they want to create in the game. I personally feel like there should be pros and cons sailing in stormy weather, obviously you would have the option to sail with less chance of being detected and in my mind if would make alot more sense if the ship would take sail damage if traveling on full speed through stormy weather. I can also understand why they have it, because people can take cool pictures, but do we then want cooler screenshots where probably 70% of the playerbase dont know about the potential usage of it other then screenshots? or do we want a much logical gameplay where we dont have sonic radars on our ship which 70% of the players dont know how to use?

Visibility range on radar would work. Say heavy storm battle visible within 500m, 500-800m cant see the nation so its just a Grey ship icon, and above 800m its not spotted on radar. Different value in night time, lantern on/off would be a possibility, and different value in just fog

no one, people use the redoutable instead

i dont think its based on that class its a agamemnon sized bellona. but take the HMS Bellona for example. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ships_of_the_line_of_the_Royal_Navy Bellona class (Slade) Bellona 74 (1760) – broken up 1814 Dragon 74 (1760) – sold 1784 Superb 74 (1760) – wrecked 1783 Kent 74 (1762) – sold 1784 Defence 74 (1763) – wrecked 1811 Btw i think the ingame 3rd rate is based on the HMS Berwick ( Elizabeth Class )

it should be ship class and get a random name from their database of the ships in that same class IMO else we would get all the random offensive names that the devs would have to go through and remove or approve before the ship is built, but its a good idea

Btw "To Group" should rather be just "Invite"

if we only could 😭

@Ink what if i have been in a though battle, have only 400 crew left when in OW and no possible way to refill the crew, and i sail a Bellona. Will the BR be 500 or 305?

if he has changed his opinion it wouldnt surprise me, but im trying to explain what i would think makes sense out from experience in other games. But i know that its probably not gonna be dealt with and in a few months time we can read this thread again with new updates on whats really an alt and what is really exploitable

if you illegally flip a port with an alt account making it invurnerable to others that have an intention to use the game mechanics for rvr/pvp purposes, thats literally the definition of game exploits. Im not gonna explain obvious exploitable game mechanics for probably grown up people, you can google the definition of an alt account its the same for any game.

its literally stated in the main post of this thread. His account will be investigated and if he is found to be exploiting the mechanics he will get banned from the game until release. His most active trading partner accounts will also be investigated and might be cleared from assets if they are his only trading partners. But i know you're trying to defend your friends on this topic, it it would be hard for you to acknowledge this. I would say helping a nation with good intention is having your alt account say Ram Dinark on W I T C H E R in the clan KRAKE helping them with pvp and rvr is good, but holding a port with Alt account supported with your main account for then to flip the port with your main account kick all friends from the alt accounts clan friends list and capture the port wiithout a chance to defend it. I wont spend more time answering you if you cant see the difference here.

I numbered your questions because i feel you're asking them in the wrong way. 1. Is it illegal to use an alt account to prevent pvp/pve or other players to play their game as they intended to from game rules? Yes 2. Is it illegal to play as multiple characters in a fair state towards other players, good intentions with helping others in their objectives while still not preventing others of doing their intended ingame objects other then using actual ingame intended mechanics? No

Thanks Davey Jones

seems like Christian and Victory is the new meta 😎

No outlaw mechanic for pirates

thats how it is in any game though. If you can meta game to get better high end gear instead of spending time you obviously want to go the quickest way since we're humans. Its also proven earlier in your game with the tutorials. If you give people shortcuts they will always take them, but then again do you want people to take shortcuts and skip 50% of the content that you created? Compare it to wow. Huge mistake that they added Raid Finder, people would skip older content to get the best items as fast as possible, you have similar mechanics in alot of other games.
