i don't think we can call US a nation but rather 10 players playing solo in pve not knowing there is others players on their sever...

we got many french there... anyway it seems this idea of stacking is over lol Maybe could we ask dev to form themself 2 blocks in one time to make like 2 bigs nations. It may be easier in the purpose to test the stuff. And OS battle are buggged but not the duel and small battles for what i tested

Hello, I think we should have a national ne thread dedicated to testbed. So far we are not enought to test it with good condition. Does someone feel the energy and the time to organise large battle on it to give ressources to dev about the new damage system? Same, can we organise an admiralty event meeting to test the 6v6? Ty

UE player will not be happy because on all this pb the one occuring at night will be auto win for thoses who are allies with US. It's excatly the same thing as now exept we could defend some port but finnaly US-player alliance will have 2 auto win PB forcing the other side to win all the others one. SO it's just changing the problem but it's still unfaire and not fixing the real problem

We are loosing players inces months or one year due of nightflip. It has never been adress but player didn't use them again. After caracas loose, the dirty pact use again this nasty card to be able to get few more ports... As soon as the alliance win something, the ennemy use everything they had to counter that. We suffer the same thing in panama, yucatan, haiti etc. Players will not solve the solution, they will use any tactics they can to win and if there is a large consensus in any nation to play fair 10 captain wanted to play unfair can ruin it. It's why game mechanism has to be used. Now splitting the server in two server is for France the best solution. The guy living in America are facing empty PB when Eurpean has to awake up in middle of the night to defend. UE player attack american player when they are at work not allowing them to defend. It's neither fun for the one facing the american than for the amercian themsel. And governor or this kind of fake features that will have to be rediscute in few monts when people will be blocked by window in the middle of the night are not a long term solution. The easiest solution is to set up 2 server like on potbs. 12 windows Pb per server. People choose on wich server to play. It will stop people leaving the game because they feel useless and think others are cheating. noone is cheting.We all use what the game offer to us. But people leave... and they leave because nightlfip is something they can't tolerate. Some would say that with 500 player on primetime, splitting the community is going to be bad but american are not playing while our primetime, as they said, they are on work so we will not see a big drop of population in primetime and with the time the pop will grow again... Better cut your hand now that put a small bandage now and been forced to cut your all arm tomorrow.

je déconseille de rusher ce serveur tant qu'on sait pas quelle nation rejoindre. Ca set a rien d'y ette 5 francais 5 anglais 5 suedois etc. Faut se stacker si on veut pouvoir faire des pb etc

You didn't reorganise to be more efficient. TBH, you lost almost all offensive PB you make as we lost almost every offensive PB we made. So what have you done? Hum pressing easywin key. "Guys we are loosing all pb in offense, how to be able to use our number and our nightadvantage to be able to capture ports?" " Lets just focus on the small nation, then we will attack it on the middle of the night when they are sleeping and on two differents points on the map to be sure their allies will not be able to jump from port A to port B". What a nice reorganisation. We will let you play the dirty part of the game. It's somehint gyour start one year ago when you were attacking everywhere and you do it again today because you see the difficulty and needed something to improve your ego. About the scream, it's a total joke. The bigger the nation, the easier the defense. I'm not speaking about real fleet of screen. But you guys come in screen with surprise trying to split and kite the pb fleet the longer you can. TBH, we make the same. Screening should be recall in kitting. It's a disgrace, noone enjoy it. The kitters and the kitted guys are boring and most go to sleep as soon as they can wishing a gl to their pb fleet. It's one more time advtangaing the bigger nation than can hold attacking fleet for their ports. Since conquest patch, coalition has land 50% of their pb due of your number kjitting in front of the port. So no more needed to elaborate, we will discute about it on saturday...

I read throgh all the topic seeing people asking for a merge. A merge would introduce again disbalance. EU player won't be able to join nightport battle when US won't be able to join EU battle. After few times, it will be clear that one of the two blocks have more US players than theother one or than one group is better thant the other one. You will go to bed after have bravely defend your port during the day to find it flip and finally taken into the night one more time without you. It will lead people to be pist of against the US of their nation. Making them the target will make them leave improving the problem. As there is 1 US plaers for 3 EU player, US player will be more valuable than UE player. MOst PB will be lost or win during the night whatever the level of your nation is as the pop on night will be low. France discut it yesterday and is hardly against server merge. It's exactly the reverse. We are promoting the idea of two server with 12hours window for PB. plyaer will have the choice when they created server (or to transfer) to the server that is the best for the Time window. Nightflip will becomes memories.

french will be there

Au fait ça parle plus de wipe de navire??

lord protecteur: Il s'agit des gouverneur des ports. En version 1.1 de la conquêtes ils choisissaient une fenêtre de deux heures pendant lesquels les ports pouvaient être attaqué. Le système a été abandonné car les anglais ont fit comme doctrine de bataille de mettre les horraires d'ouverture en plein milieu de la nuit pour empecher leur ennemis de reprendre les ports... Raid: Attaque de port ou bataille de port sans conquete de la zone. Au programme butin doublon et autres (à définir) Corsaires: IA agressive attaquant les joueurs

Problem: - Screeners attack Port battle fleet in the goal to disturb it making it loose time. It's not the problem. The problem is that this fights are not fun because screen are juste kitting and not really fighting. It's mostly suicide squad of 5-10 ships. - Many battle occures around the PB but most are unbalance due of screen crushing together, group of 5 counter screen attack largest grou of screen wich then disband and form smaller group leading to small unbalance battles. - The port battle are unorganised because we don't get any tools to organise them before they start Solution: - Introduce "Admiral Flag". Admiral flag can be buy in port for 1 million doublon. The guy purchasing the admiral flag can make a group of 25 people. If people of the group in open sea stay near the Admiral Flag it gives the group a bonus on BR or it changes their ROE making them not attackable by group than not get at least 75% of their BR Why: - The flag can be purchased by everyone. It will make the groups sticking more together. - It will not forbid screen but will organise it to get real fight. We won't see any more 5v25 but if the screen success 20-25 at least. - Counter screen will stop suiciding in screen. We see many 5v10 5v15 where the counter screen has just to purpose to kite the screening fleet to let the pb fleet past. If screener use admiral flag, counter screen has to be organise to attack them making more big battles in open sea. /Discuss

let me sleep on my billion pz :-)

Puerto de espana : French taking the wind or brits giving it to french :-) Ty for the tools, well be nice to help the noobs to understand the wind

yes sure, sorry i install back my computer few days ago and i didn't get back all the right banner and set up my twitch as it should. Next time it will be better don't worry and in case of necessity you get the reddi stream too

So yesterday the coalition has won their first port battle with this system. -40 french captain for the pb and screen -10 slots were reserved for danish/swedish to discover the patch. Next time we will make Spanish slots too into the pb. - mix ship as usual in pb and many society as usual. Mostly santissima, Victory one ocean one mortar - brits full Victory, one mortar 4 consti On paper french were bigger with more rated ship and more power. Brits were faster. On start wind was awfull for french after a try to form on close hal, we decide to go back on circle A to reorganise. After a small mutinery quickly stopped, french were again in fighting spirit and we charged the brits who (stupidly) leave their positions burning their wind. With the wind turn and this bad brits manœuvre, it allow french to chase the brits. As usual, brits kite french using their victo to decrease our sails. Neither as usual we didn't care. The idea was to push them outside C circle to capture it quickly as they let frigs in B. Sadly french bad communication made french joining c with even number than brits. So we couldn't take c quickly. After having cross the circle, brits were force to leave it or fight. French repairs sails and the kite was forgotten and a really close fight begin. It was hard to leaf it but slowly and surely santissima power take the upper on Victory. Few boarding and goods retreats allow french to capture C and capture A for a few moment allowing the coalition to make points. The battle was tactly interesting. The first time before the wind change make it har for us as we were unable to move due of port position. I strongly believe British made a mistake by leaving C. My opinion is not made for frigates in PB but atm, I'm not sure it's effective.

Sure, I'm surprised it take so long to see British explode after toxic to join them :-). No Christmas ceasfire into the British civil war ^^ I didn't remember how much french and combine allies have to pay sorry for the succes of their "explode British nation" operation. Waiting for that I would love a huge cup of popcorn :-).

The idea to get the same ship is far more easy to lead a prot battle. The second solution is for the leader to have the slower ship to feel what he can ask his fleet or not. At least he will not think the santi can get close hall for example. Looking for the number of french clans it's normal to have many differents ships in battle. Now, they all use same officier perk and fits, time to speak about alpha fleet will come after the wipe. Waiting for it we won't craft new first rate before all the ones we crafter in reserv will be down...and there is still enough... My clan will not see an ocean for nexts weeks

I think we forget we were defending after the First wind change and have gone to chase you. The dc of fleet leader place à part of the fleet into the wind that gives you the ability to desengage before suffering zn explosion. For 5 min it was à mess Irh people célébration far too early the victorythe explosion of Nelson make it stop as 6 to 7 suffered badly of explosion. While french didn't suffer hige causaltie on this time, discipline decrease and as everyone with the explosion Miss on or two masts, speed were différent. French intact ships chased english bzrzly sunk ship and reverse. Différence is french won't surrender ornleave battle to make us win more time. We should have left as the brits done after explosion but it could have cost us the Victory. Edr lost 250 mid grade note tonight.... :-S

i love them so far but i agree that participation should be small reward in term of point, for example 30 points when you sunk in 5th rate or more, 80 for an assist etc

The question is not is pirates nation fail? It's pirates, don't join them if you want to be part of an alliance. The question i why joining the zergind coalition than can fully 7 pb in one time without pirates to help when all the others nation try their maximum to join barely all the pb with 25 players.

Facts : - every players are rich - many nation miss BP Solution : Put few BP on sale on each capital to allow players to spend their money and in the same time acquire new bp. It could be a good money drop as this money would just disapear from game. Light ship BP could be 500k each, frigates PB, 1 million, Line of ship BP 10 millions, exeptionnals ships BP 100 million It's Big amount but it's exactly what people could spend for BP and would spend for BP. It could give a goal to grind more doublons ans to improve rellation between captains to collect enough money for a spécific BP
