[Continental Navy (PvP2) (US)]

The British are getting more active in our area of operations.

 

We are seeking USA players interested in joining the Continental Navy and pushing them back.

 

We need players with a fighting spirit.

[Naval Action Bazaar Thread, Buy Sell Everything]

On PvP2, I am looking for someone to craft an exceptional, Live Oak, Pavel with Planking. 

 

I am able to supply all parts and crafting notes.

The crafter needs only one click to build the ship. 

 

Since we do not know each other and we have no trust established, the ship must be built before I supply parts; so I can trade all the parts and any negotiated fee for the ship.

 

My name in game is: Farwalker

Last night the Continental Navy again sallied forth to forcefully remove the pirate scourge from two more ports. 

 

Remedios on the north shore of Cuba is now under USA control.

Also, Islet the closest port to the Pirate capital was wrested from pirate control after the pirates were unable to defend it with a full defensive effort.  The port battle was fully populated by both sides, but the superior quality of the USS forces prevailed.

 

These two victories brings the total number of Pirate ports taken by USS in to USA control to about 30 in the last three or four weeks.  Unlike a certain pirate claims, we did not do it in one night.

 

USS is an active clan of many dedicated members who welcome those players who wish to join us in sailing the waters and destroying pirates.

We must be doing our jobs well since there is much crying and protesting of unfairness by some pirates about our activity, successful strategy and superior results.

George's Town and Deadman's Cay have been added to the growing list of ports liberated from the oppressive occupation of pirates.

The Continental Navy [uSS] will not rest until the threat of pirates in the Bahamas is reduced as far as possible. This means all pirate controlled ports which can be taken from pirate will be freed from pirate control.

[1st Big content patch information.]

In the new system:

All main tasks have a certain allocation of crew depending on ship type.

All main tasks have a minimum and optimal size of crew required.

• Optimal crew – task will be fulfilled at max speed
• Minimal crew – task will be fulfilled with penalties
• Less than minimal crew – task wont be fulfilled at all.

Sailing, Gun reloads, Repairs, Leak fixing is atomized and all of them require a min or optimal squad. The crew requirement is the sum of individual crew requirements. Switches between crew focuses take time and the bigger your crew the more time it takes to reposition the squads from task to task. If you have full crew you can toggle optimal performance for all tasks. 

 

Atomized? as "to reduce to minute particles or to a fine spray."

 

  Do you mean automated?

[Continental Navy (PvP2) (US)]

The Continental Navy [uSS] formed a battle group early this day and took three ports away for those dastardly pirates in the Bahamas.

Mimbres, Kemps Bay, and Govenor's Harbour all are now free to enjoy the benefits of Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

Reporting back:

 

I was in error.  I do not know what I did in the battle where I had trouble.

I now know that there is no chance to my Snow 's performance.  (So long as I avoid hitting the wrong buttons.)

 

Thanks for you help.

[Jan. 26, 2016 patch makes game unplayable]

I will try again.  I will pay particular attention to the above noted possible conditions. 

 

"F" key for Skipper Auto mode.

"T" key for jibs and staysails.

 

I will report back.

[Jan. 26, 2016 patch makes game unplayable]

Sounds like you Depowered your sails, Press T to power and Depower them. 

I'll check it out. 

 

But I thought the "T" key was to control staysails only.

[Jan. 26, 2016 patch makes game unplayable]

if you were using manual sails perhaps you forgot to put it back onto automatic or you might have accidentally hit one of the manual sails. Everything seems fine for me.

Nope that was not the issue.  Sails automatically were working great.

I tried one Admiralty battle today in my Snow.  My rank is 2nd Lt.  Snow is equipped with an Optimized Rudder.

 

PROBLEM:

Compared to sailing my Snow previously, now the Snow only goes half speed in battle. 

It was not able to exceed 5 knots.  It also turns at about half the previous rate.

 

I had 100% sails, no leaks and was not able to get over 5 knots! 

Before the patch I was able to do over 10 knots for most points of sailing. 

I got caught "in stays" (pointing into the wind twice in this battle). 

Never happened before.

 

Nothing has changed except today's patch.

The game is unplayable in this state.

 

Other players mention that they too have this problem in game chat.

I hope you remedy this situation quickly so I can enjoy you game soon.

As it is now, the game is UNPLAYBLE.
