  1. Hey all, after getting out of a battle that crashed I decided id just have to play another. Clicked on PVP and bam... hourglass on my screen and it wont go away. I tried logging off and back on its still there. Tried restarting PC and the hourglass screen is still there every time I try to log back on NA. I log in connecting through steam and bam.. hourglass. Has anyone else had this problem and know how to fix it?

     

    (hourglass as in, when the game loads there's a giant white hourglass on top of a grey/black background) I run the game in window mode if that helps.

  2. I agree with Cuthbert, one thing I will add about the flintlocks on cannon is the "delay" is not long. I've also tinkered with flintlocks and while there is a noticeable delay its still very fast especially if the lock is well tuned. But obviously fuses did take time.
     

  3. I've had this issue twice, and I wasn't able to reconnect to a game and got put back in "main screen" as well. I think it could be a combination of so many players and the server i think is in Europe and you are in Florida. I doubt its an issue with just the Santisima Trinidad.. all I can really say is try your best to report the issue/bug to the devs and they might be able to see what the problem might be. Good luck, see you on the high seas. (are you sure the servers didn't go down? I haven't played today so I cant really say)

  4. That's true, but still - such config should provide stable 25-40fps at low/med settings. DontTreadOnMe, have you tried to uninstall/install NA?

    No I have not, maybe I should give that a try. I appreciate everyone's help here. Seems my CPU could be a problem but I think I'm most likely going to just tough it out (I'm not in the mood spending hundreds of dollars for more fps) and enjoy playing this wonderful age of sail. thanks for all the help guys!  :)

  5. Hi there, been enjoying Naval action but there is one thing that really bugs me.. and that's my computers performance when playing Naval Action. 

    Here's my computer specs,

     

    -8Ram

    -Geforce GTX 680

    -AMD Phenom II X4 970 Processor (4cpu's) 3.5 ghz.

    -Dx 11

    -20725mb available

    -Running a genric acer, monitor using 1920x1080

     

    On average "small" games with only lets say 3-4 ships per a team the game runs fairly smooth going in between 30-40 fps (50 at the absolute max). Bigger games, like Trafalgar's I get about 15-35 fps (40 at absolute max). While this is not very low fps by any means, I get really sick because of the "sluggish" (lag) motion of the camera movements and all.

     

    Before you tell me to turn my settings lower I have! I've been messing with the settings constantly seeing little to no improvement, When running on all low/off settings I only get 5-10 fps more than I do running Ultra. Yes.. I have the latest Drivers and updates and I've already double checked to be sure. I've tried to tough it out but, its really frustrating once cannons start going off and the smoke and splinters drive my fps into the ground. It feels like a stop motion pirate movie  :lol:.. (except I start to get sick from the the motion of the stop motion and action going on...)

     

    Anyways I cant afford any new equipment or graphics card( please don't tell me to "buy a new graphics card silly newb") and I can run almost any other game just fine with max settings and over 60 fps on some games hitting 100 fps but not this one. Is It just because its not optimized well or something to that effect, or is definitely on my end? I'm in a pickle and I'm no computer tech wiz by ANY means. Can anyone here help me out? much appreciated thanks  ;)

     

    (forgot to add, I play in window mode at 1920x1080 if that helps)

  6. You have to remember this is not a released game, in open world we will have to gather materials needed to build the ship you want which means needing to get enough $$$, and somehow creating/building the ship. There will not be any damage/winning system to "unlock" ships or any level up system or classes, the devs have already said this. We will have to work and play the game like a real sailor or privateer, pirate etc, would have had to in this era.  :)

  7. Clan battles, so much desire for the bigger stuff which is understandable as thats where clans take the game seriously. Hopefully the developers can make the little ships feel more useful in the open world.

    I think smaller ships will have their advantages like being easier to repair, maintain and being nimble. Also losing a smaller ship is not as big of a deal, or as big of a loss as losing a ship of the line. Having smaller ships and producing smaller ships also means more of them at a cheaper cost. That means a clan can using smaller ships can work together and use their numbers as an advantage to take down "bigger" ships. I think Pirate lovers will also be happy using these smaller vessels.I also read a few posts talking about the future of ships, like upgrades, changing cannons, the quality and quantity of cannons on a ship etc.. If the devs do add this it means more customization and making your smaller cheaper ship have better performance or stats that suite your play style. All ships have their pros and cons, I hope the devs keep all ships historically accurate and I'm confident they know what to do!  :)
