  1. Ahoy,

    (and damm I was a tiny bit too late)

    to my eyes that looks like a ship fresh out of the shipyards. at least a 2nd rate (looks like 98 to me)

    Ofc to celebrate such a massive launch they will flag her like on parade.

    Also as said above you launch a ships hull without masts. Depending on the methods even without full planking. And ofc without any cannons attached.

  2. naw. this is merely myself having fun with the plans I acquired for this vessel.

    The update is getting half a year old and I did not do anything more to the vessel. I lost interest and wasnt yet motivated to continue her. The arcs that frame the Sternpiece are still off. They look goot at a distance but the closer you get the more apparent are their flaws^^

    Dann zähl doch mal diese vielen tollen Dinge auf...aber woher willste die kennen wenn du schon ewig nicht mehr aktiv spielst??? WTF

    Bots segeln seit gefühlten zwei Jahren durch Inseln... realistisches Spiel etc.! Ja, nee is klar....

    Bots sind früher durch fast alle Inseln getuckert. Is das heute noch so? Es gibt spots da passiert das, ja. Aber so, wie es zu beginn war? Nein. Und bugs dann auf fehlenden Realismus zu projezieren. Kein Kommentar.

    Wer was als gut befindet is unterschiedlich. Ich werde mich nicht darauf einlassen, hier irgendwas zu schreiben, da es jeder anders auslegt. Da kann ich nur verlieren.

    Gute Dinge in diesem Patch:
    Leeweg. Klar kann das auch echt scheiße sein aber ich empfinde diesen Schritt als sehr cool. Was draus wird wird sich zeigen. Dazu die realistischeren Schiffsbewegungen. Gehörig zum rebalancing des ganzen Lineups. Denn das ist schon immer ein Problem: Metaschiffe. Mal die Consti, dann Trincomalee, dann Agamemnon, dann Wasa, etc... Schiffsvielfalt auf der OS ist eher Liebhabersache. Spieler nutzen aber zu 99% das, was am besten ist. "Metaschiffe". Das zu rebalancen ist in meine Augen extrem wichtig. Mehr echte Vielfalt. (Und am besten die ganzen geknackten Lootbooks rausnehmen )

     

     

    So, aus gegebenen Anlass:

    Frohe Weihnachten und schöne Feiertage ;)

  4. Oh mein Gott.. Reitet man immer noch das Pferd, was schon längst tot ist zu Grunde?

    Sorry aber ich habe kein Verständnis, wenn man den dicken, fetten Disclaimer "Early Access" nicht lesen oder gar interpretieren kann. Zudem kann er money-back nutzen.

    Ich selbst spiele auch seit langem nicht mehr aktiv. Und weiter? Ich habe über 1000 Stunden im Spiel verbracht. Eher 2000 mit den ganzen technischen Alphas mitberechnet.. So, wie viele viele andere auch.

    Und auch, wenn es die selbe Laier immer und immer wieder ist: Das Spiel ist noch immer nicht released. Ich verstehe, wenn es euch nerft, dass es nicht schon längst fertig ist. Aber seid doch einfach mal so gut und nemmt Patches zumindest zum Teil auch mal an. Was ich bei jedem neuen Patch lese ist immer das selbe: Warum nicht UI, was is mit Wirtschaft, wo is Release, was machen meine Schiffsverschönerungen etc..

    Dass sich aber auch tolle Dinge dabei erbgeben, das kommt selten bis nie bei euch an. Das ist leider traurig. Nörgeln geht aber immer.

    Während einer Sea Trials Phase gabs mal einzeln steuerbare Segel inklusive hissen und reffen. Das wurde aber wieder abgeschafft - viel zu viele Tasten nötig und wenn im Port Battle 50 Spieler anfangen einzelne Segel zu steuern, macht der Instanz-Server ganz schnell Feierabend.

    Das habe ich nicht miterlebt und ich habe (mMn.) jede Testphase mitgemacht. War das in den technischen pre-alphas? Bei denen war ich fast von Anfang an dabei (hab leider nicht mehr die Kanonen mit Rückstoß erlebt..^^ ) Was es einmal gab war ein Tool, mit dem man Segel zerstören und wieder rannageln konnte. Das war aber nur zur harten Bugsuche gedacht, da damals das Segelsystem implementiert wurde

  5. the devs showed what is possible with mix decks (prince de neufchatel I am looking at you). The 90 gun config is more than predestined to get such a treatment. 12 pounders aft and carros from mid to forecastle on the upper works. If that is coming there is a private party in my head ^^

    Looking at my model once more I realize that this one is already fit for the 90 gun layout if the shipyard just adds mounting points for the carronades and maybe narrow the gap on the weatherdeck to give her some sort of spar deck. Maybe also by adding gratings - I dont know. To fit the Admiraal's appearance I recon the shipwrights might have to shape the "forecastle" slightly differently. Or leave it alone since I personally love the looks of it much better on the Chattam. Afterall Ship plans are not nessecary 100% representative about the ship's appearance. Later paintings of these 80-90 gunners also show them with thick bulwarks just like the Bucentaure has.

    All in all those are rather easy modifications which I actually consider doing for the sake of comparisn of appearance..

  6. thats simple:

    Capturing a 1st rate is a enourmous feat. Building these monsters costs a button of money and materials. And when it comes down to building these bohemoths every nation is trying their best to design them with their most advanced methods and building with only the best materials in mind. Its not surprising in any way that 1st rates serve for a very long time. Its a logical consequence to the investment a nation does when comissioning such vessels.

    In regards to the 70 gunner:

    she was build and captured in a time of change. mid 18th century the typical 74 arose from the dockyards. Bevore this design the 70 gun vessel is more prominent as well as the 64. Late 18th century the brits became more and more picky to what foreign ships they want to take into service. Experience showed that the british vessels are superior in build quality. Reducing the cost and time spent to maintain them.

    Interesting thought for example: The brits captured one of the two spanish 80 gunners mid 18th century  

    (spanish Fenix) It was discussed and surveyed if this ship design is a good investment for the own fleet. But excessive hogging of these vessels and the resulting maintenance cost required deterred the brits from building their own 80s for a long time. (foudroyand beeing I believe the first british 80 gunned design)

  7. this actually sounds pretty awesome. I pretty much love the idea - as you said. Even if you already know a thing or two about ship building and modeling there is always room to improve. And the same problem has different angles of approach.

    One word of warning however is that one should be at least familiar with a 3D modeling programm of his choice. So that ppl do not start from zero but at least know how to navigate their model and know the basics. Im not saying one needs to already know the tool by heart but if malachi has to explain how to move vertices, this tutorial might derail.

    Back on topic and the cool part^^: As of late there is a thread that includes loads and loads of nice little ships:

    What you/we could do is to open a 2nd thread to clean this one up and move all of the ship choice related posts in there. IF this approach is accepted I or any other moderator can help you with sorting this out.

  8. nice 2nd life use of these vessels. Beein build very sturdy and resiliant they were the perfect  vessels to go through ice. At least the best they had at the time.

    Reading a lot of ketches I was very surprised to see corvet plans with bombards. (dutch ships). The reason for why they used ketchs is to reduce the risk of fire to the rig. The more I wonder how they shot with corvets or even brigs..

  9. "new" challenge?

    Get rid of the common nations. USA, Britain, France.

    And start this thread "anew" with the intention to maybe get more danish, spanish, portuguese, venetian, etc.. ships ;)

    Something different. Maybe have a focus at corvets. single decked vessels with three masts.

    Another gap to fill would be around the 12 pounder frigate. cant dig numbers but IIRC there is no real reason to sail those 12 pounder armed vessels (correct me if im wrong). Reasons other than aestetics!
