Abandoned ship - Save the crew
Ned Loe replied to Sir_Wiener_Von_Snitzel's topic in Current Feature Improvement Suggestions
It would be true with pirates only. Surrendered crew would join pirates in some cases. -
Abandoned ship - Save the crew
Ned Loe replied to Sir_Wiener_Von_Snitzel's topic in Current Feature Improvement Suggestions
Add local villages to refill men, add survivors on the os that can be picked up. Also, wounded sailors would heal back and some % will be restored back over some time (depends on the surgeon you will use. ex. master surgeon can restore up to 80% of lost crew). -

A Public Open World map

You can also use this map if you want. It is a very close match to what devs use. -

Radeon R9 395x2 would be a great replacement. This is the first time that we’ve ever got to see the R9 395X2. This is a dual GPU card just like the 990 Ti. Featuring two Fiji XT GPUs each rocking 4092 GCN cores for a total of 8184 GCN cores. Each GPU features a 4092bit wide IO memory interface feeding 8GB of stacked HBM1 for a total of 16GB of HBM running at 1.25Ghz. Resulting in a massive 640GB/s of bandwidth per GPU, twice that of the GTX 990 Ti. Each Fiji XT GPU is clocked at 1080Mhz which once again makes this the highest clocked graphics card ever produced by AMD. And easily the fastest, outperforming AMD’s previous R9 290X by nearly 300%. Add DX12 and you are set for years. Btw, nice rig. About 1.5 year worth before next upgrade need.

I can't simply explain the whole system, but it is one of my favorite ones. I can simply convert their system into realistic NA any day for comparison reasons. Please let me know if you need it. Some best features include: User friendly interface. On the go sale ability. Current buyer/current sellers option. Very good organization of products and resources. (Filters).

Direct X 12 update won't require you to buy a new graphics card. Both Nividia and Microsoft today confirmed that most modern PC gaming hardware will work well with DirectX 12. Devs might add new features if game engine will be able to handle it. Dx12 release should make no effect on the game.

Society emblem, sails and flag customization.
Ned Loe replied to Ned Loe's topic in Current Feature Improvement Suggestions
Probably not many, this is a game and devs need to create a feeling that every player sails a unique ship. It will be so boring to see 10 Surprises , same colors same everything chilling together. On the other hand a team could paint their sails black, drop their soc emblem and let others know who they are and who is defending these waters. You know what I mean? I would even add the feature to show a soc emblem over a group of soc members who are sailing together. -
I would like to suggest the system that would let players create and customize: Society Emblem Flag Sail Pattern or emblem. For comparing purposes only - If anyone played BF4, they will know what I am talking about. Sail pattern and emblem: I would like to see similar system for creating and editing designs, coloring ship parts and creating flags. Treasure chests feature would be ideal combination with this feature as well as premium gold chests that will drop new colors, shapes and unlock new things. It was a very popular feature in potbs and many players enjoyed creating art. Also, add ability so sell player created flags on the AH for doubloons. Please discuss.

But you can't see detailed ship a mile away, can you? We talking blur objects in far distances. Our eye can't pick details on far mountains.
