Kpt Beowulf aka Kpt Ahab

Super, dass Du hier so ausführlich Deine Erfahrungen weiter gibst und die Lernkurve beschreibst. Genau so läuft das in diesem Spiel. Der Help Chat und die Spieler der eigenen Fration sind meist auch gerne bereit ingame zu helfen. Kleiner Tip: versuche mal den vorderen Mast auf E und R zu legen und Depower auf C. Dann liegen die Tasten näher zusammen. Einen Guide in deutscher Sprache fürs manuelle segeln gibts auf youtube von plak.rocks

Mein ingame Name in Schweden ist jetzt Kpt Beowulf - Kpt Ahab dümpelt in irgendeinem britischen hafen vor sich hin und wurde durch den EA Zeitenwechsel wohl aus der Geschichte gestrichen ;-)

Good to know you out on the Caribbean Sea again Captain!

But proper positioning doesn´t help if you find yourself in the instance with the wind turned 180°...

The Frigate "l´Hermione" - the ship on which the Marquis de Lafayette returned to Boston in 1780 to declare the support for the american Independence War by the French, was rebuilt and finished in 2012) and is now sailing around the Atlantic on a history tour? It took 30Mil$, 3000 oaks and 17 years to accomplish that. The original l´Hermione was built in 11 month!!!! The original plans were destroyed by fire but the Brits caught a sister ship and still have the plans which they made to know how the french have designed such a fast and nimble ship in their archives. The l´Hermione had 3 sister ships the la Courageuse, la Concorde and the la Fée.

Privateer trading/exploring on known seas and beyond with the protection of the almighty...

I am hoping to hit the "Siegfried-spot" to overcome the defense lines ;-) ...and the Honorable Administrator already gave us more info than I´d expected (Some important things must be finished we want to try to get them done this and next week)

Can you give a VERY rough estimation when this will happen?

Have fun being haunted by every sailor and his/their mothers in game because it´s not really a fun mode as it hasn´t been in RL. And make sure you are an ace when it comes to sailing skills and to value potential targets...

ampaholic is so afraid of storms that he always lets himself tie to the mast not much unlike the good ol´ Odysseus...

Back in these days of sailing a 10 year old boy could have been dragged from his indebted parents onto a Man-Of-War before even having a glimpse of what awaited him in his life and his duty was carrying huge blackpowder pellets from the guts of a screaming ship in the havoc of cannon balls and splinters flying everywhere and men in all different conditions of martial disintegration laying on the raw planks and bawling their lungs out from pain... even in peaceful days he heard and saw things on a ship that would make a lubber go blush and shiver And you are afraid of 1 or 2 swearings on a screen that could harm your son??? Hey - I´m just joking ;-)

If thats your opinion then it´s obsolete for my part. And it seems that you need bold appearances to feel recognized.. Haven´t you been the one complaining of getting offended by your team for not knowing what to do even in a Santi. You said you want to leave the game if that doesn´t stop - lol

I was rammed 5 times in another game some days ago in a Vic or Bell chasing a Vic. The 1st time it was simultaneously form both sides midships, 1 friendly sailing a Bell totally unaware of what is going on around him, the other an enemy Bell doing it intentionally. That enemy Bell did it once again, plus an enemy Cerberus doing it twice on me. It is VERY hard not to go ballistic there and if you do you get hung in the Tribunals for being the offender... WHAT??? This I call rewarding the wrong side for acting perfidious and destroying. Will there be means to counter that? I really am not sure... And there are ALWAYS trolls waiting just to hop on the bus and line up to hunt you down. Read up the 1st "hotrod" thing on the "T" section it´s a perfect example for it. Do those ramming trolls get a warning? NO WAY, it is called a viable tactic! Blame is always put on the one who gets affected by "players" that intentionally exploit all means to "win" -> Slamz http://forum.game-la...cement/?p=80812 Am I upset about that? Yup Don´t misunderstand this.I don´t defend any insults made aiming to humiliate someone´s personally with using racist or sexist terms.

Thank you and yes - I found it on E:

There has been a lot of good ideas provided here and i am sure that the Dev team will translate them if possible but it will be a first things first thing. The most important thing for me would be to have the scale made visible. Cannon crews could go up to 16 for 42pounders btw (if I´m not mistaken) although these cannons were located in the lower decks due to balance issues. I just upgraded my PC due to NA and thus ready for some nasty stuff to come... ;-)
