Wasn't that announced or planned long time ago? I always thought that would be a good idea. It would limit the light-weight hunters to a certain battle ammo - after that is fired, they can only run home. Or they take more ammo - and suffer from loosing speed. Other way round: a ship that is already slower than hunters, could carry more ammo, to be at least prepared for enduring defense. Another way to make the game more realistic - I like it!

Hodo Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 (edited) Hmm options to make the game more realistic. -Trade winds... the correct prevailing wind directions for the correct regions of the map. -Variable wind strengths. -Shallows in combat that matter, hit a reef going 12kn and say bye by to your keel. -No repairing masts in battle. This is something that took A LOT of time and manpower. -Different sail settings require different amount of sailing crew. Battle sails should be the default combat sail plan setting, and the most useful. -Limited ammunition stores. Ships didnt have unlimited shot lockers. -Introduction of Bar shot, specifically designed to damage masts, spars, and rigging. -Reduction in elevation on cannons. Right now we can elevate a gun about 20deg. Which is INSANE! -Increase spread on shots at longer ranges. Right now you can sit at 600yds with a 6lb medium gun and pick away at a ship. These are just a few of the things I can think of for making the game a little bit more realistic. EDIT- Forgot... -REMOVE FANTASY SHIPS! If it didnt exist remove it.

fox2run Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 I think they should cater more for single players. The clans had enough love now. There must be a ton of possibilities to make... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
