PVP Missions


Recommended Posts

Im thinking all nations v pirates atm. More to come with the diplo stuff. Pirates can fight each other i guess. They already abuse the dura system and sell single duras from multi dura ships.

 

Doesn't even need to have limits, just sink or cap another player under the pirate flag. Or if devs want to go a step further, have pirates go for any other nation, while all nations go for them.

Bounty missions, like in POTBS would be nice (i.e. Sink 10 British captains)

What would be better is some sort of Intel on enemy locations. There used to be ship reports, but nobody used it. However with the smaller population, IMO, ship reports should be brought back.

@Anne Some sort of regional population would be awesome. Especially for low pop times!

 

A little clarification. Just like how you can see total population on the bottom, you can see how many people are in the region you are in too.

Well, taking from the PvP idea bounties can be automated, bounty being equal to NPC market value of items stolen. Can be applied to any nation and also to pirates. Use bounty value as bragging right, pretty much as it is done in E:D ( yarrr damn Federals muahahah )

Ha nah, not at all. Just tired of hunting with no objective other than its what i want to do!

 

Go freebooter ( true to form ) !!! Let coin be the objective, and let the crew go wild when returning to harbor to bask in the tavern loudness and bathe in the brothel delicacies.

 

Joking :)

 

What about PvP Missions generated by War ? ( consider war&peace update )

All available PVP missions are visible on a special PVP mission screen and can be joined by 2 teams of different nations / they don't have to sail over OW instead they meet in a special battle instance

 

- escort duty -- escort an AI trader fleet to a free port --> plenty of gold for the escort's side or plenty of materials for the interceptor's side

- great melee action --> two fleets meet a certain point --> whoever successfully boards the most ships wins the fight and earns the ships with 2 dura

- tattered sails --> two fleets meet in a storm --> bring back storm maps and the winner get's special gold sailing gear (lets say reinforced masts / lightweight ropes / speed trim)

- sunken death --> whoevers sinks most of the enemy ships in 20 mins wins the fight and earns special gold hull gear (copper plating / reinforced rudder / extra planking)

 

Edit: Through the blockade -- get past an enemy fleet at night with reduced visibility / lights off -- they can only see you when close enough so they have to spread out ....

Definately! This is definately something I would want.

 

Right now though, just a simple pvp mission option where its to hunt pirates for nationals, and anything (excluding other pirates?) for pirates would be awesome.

Do you think we could put something like this in OW? Perhaps have OW events or even better, scheduled OW events that show up in the same place for anyone interested? Theres already an unspoken schedule for the small/large battles thats baked into the signup thing of it, its the convenience of clicking a button that makes these things work for everyone. 

 

All battles are instanced now anyways, I wouldn't have a problem sailing to an event location to actually be involved in some sort of event like a large/small battle or trafalgar. In fact, i think it would improve OW pvp dramatically.
