Teutonic

Mind you, I am not asking for land to be gone from battles, I am in agreement with you. I just wish for a solution to what I precieve as a problem, although I know others do not believe it to be a problem. So bigger circles? Great, love it.

I personally think that the mechanic in having it impossible to join a join circle because it's on land is Cancer. Why should I not be allowed to join a battle but the enemy can? So the enemy gets away with entering a battle when I want to fight them but can't because my side has some shitty Land in the way. it doesn't add "strategy" it adds anger and frustration.

Wish the swords were a color OTHER than white too.

It's like the Wasa is broken again or something...:thinking: Looks to have been a good fight though.

seems appropriate.

Agreed. I think it's absolutely needed and I don't care what side or what nation you're on, it's cancer and it has to stop.

There were loopholes. and through discussion in the thread players suggest ways to get fix them, what you suggest was what "roughly" war companies was promising.

don't bring NN shit here. you post has absolutely no relevance here. either bring something to the table or buzz off

it's almost like it's not worth playing, hooray! we all won!

War Companies was one of the best suggestions the Admin had brought up and it could have solved all of this

BORK will also be re-instated into the Fold. thanks for the fast decision making. Time to make the map Blue....er!

git gud EDIT - in all seriousness - it's been like this for a while and I agree to maintenance for forts - but then I would ask for a completely different way to maintain ports and revenue. overall it's fine the way it is.

Simple and needed Fully support.

Really wish we had all those suggestions. I keep reading through them and thinking, damn if only we had these mechanics ingame....

I worded it poorly yes, my apologies. The economy in the games is different and it's not supposed to be the same as eve. That being said i do believe the economy and ways to make money or find materials in the world of Naval action should change. But that's for another thread.

so I would say you're both right and wrong and this is not to say that I don't see your point, I agree with you, but i'm not sure how you would manage it with current economics as well as a battle system. You have 3 things that are different in Eve then in NA that contribute to WHY eve ships in pvp tend to be "less expensive." 1. No limit to how many players can be in the "Grid" (NA battle) so you're not limited to 25v25, but any number of ships vs anything 2. the "fighting" mechanics are different where to a degree a player can click on an ally and just set "be within 2,000m. Then you wait for your fleet commander to call a target, where you then lock and press a button to activate your guns or offensive weaponry 3. Depending on the Ship and Ship class, also depends on what is normally "fitted." to give an NA example - on a 5th rate you probably wouldn't but the most expensive mods, but on a Port Battle 1st Rate, you want that sucker to be pimped out, as because it is also more expensive and worth using the better tools. We can go further into each ship class and it has variants called, Tech 1, Tech 2, and Faction (Some Tech 3 but that's not needed here). some pictures for reference of ships I own for PvP in Eve Online, I've tried in the past to find a similarity to ship class in eve and ship rate in NA and I will try to show it: 1. T1 Cruiser - Omen - https://imgur.com/rFEfoUs So here we have a Basic T1 Cruiser - best comparison I can give is in Naval Action this would be a 5th rate. This Fit comes with a couple things in mind. 1. Cheap (Cost effective) 2. Long Range, Armor Tank, Fast (Microwarpdrive) In your suggestion, this Fit is a PvP fit meant to be flown with friends, have logistics and other support. The Cost -- 35.2 million "Isk." Lets look at a PvP Fitted Titan (which comparison would be a 1st Rate) T1 Titan - Ragnarok - https://imgur.com/kxOU1gH Here we have a PvP Fitted Titan - This fit has what they call "Blue" and "Faction (Green)" loot. these modules can be a little to a hello kittyton more expensive than the T2 mods we have on the Cruiser. due to that, the Price of this Fitted Rag is somewhere between 60-70 billion "Isk." This fit comes with these in mind. 1. Max Shield Tank 2. Capital Weaponry to fight other Capitals, Mid-Range, Slow When it comes to the Hull cost - an Omen is 9 mill, a Ragnarok is roughly 55-60 billion depending where you buy it. So in terms of PvP, yes the fits and ships are comparable to a degree. but I don't think you'd ever fit the Omen with Faction or Blue loot due to how expensive they are compared to the ship hull. Tl;Dr --- Eve ships are Fitted for PvP usually based on how expensive the "Hull" of the ship is, the more expensive the Hull of the ship, usually the better and more expensive the modules are on the ship. difference is that Eve Online has a flourishing economy that makes this work, where in Naval Action our economy is so broken that we would need to completely change how everything is made to get to the level that Eve has.

Interesting developments.

I think it's silly you need a perk and I agree we should be allowed to have the ability to keep the captured ship you gain in a battle without having to sacrifice your own ship.

The only foul play i see is the french EU clans setting their timers in the gulf in us time so the possible enemies can't attack them. Timers are timers though, you either attack during the defenders window or you don't attack it. Simple.

This. This is how you create "variations" of ship builds. You could name it differently, but This is the proper way. RNG is awful

Best thing to see honestly. So many more ships being used and it's great.

I remember the days when you would get gold and xp for damage, and while it wasn't a lot the fact that you still got a reward even when losing really helped many new players and old players cover some of the mounting costs of pvp. I am in full agreement towards anything to bring that back. I can attest that is gave players a better reason to go out and fight won or lose. There is just too much at stake for some folks. As @Slim Jimmerson said, people spend an hour to 1.5 hours in battle only to get nothing sometimes and it's extremely disappointing.

True, but unfortunately everyone does it so it's no use pointing fingers now is it? I have seen french, swedes, danes, dutch, pirates, russians ,us, etc all do it The devs need to fix it. Players want to fix it? Lets make a server meeting with diplos to see if something can be fixed.

I think it's getting a little heated here and folks could use some time away from the forums. No you may have not, but others do. Nonetheless you are right, the PBs at cartaghena, Santa Marta, and Barranquilla, as well as the OW screen and pvp fights outside have really been the most enjoyable fights to date for a lot of us.

had more fun, had more battles and win or lose, enjoyed fighting the Swedes, both sides sank people too. Sounds like Kingy doesn't like that he can't take part in these fun events.
