Ink Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Captains, Rarely some of you may experience a sudden complete loss of control of your vessel in battle. This can happen very rarely in case of heavy packet loss: game loses connection to a server and cannot re-establish the connection. It usually feels like you have lost all control of the ship. Workaround If you experience this in battle - please relogin to the game immediately. This will re-establish connection and you will be able to control a ship again. We plan to add a visual indication of such connection loss in the future which will first show that you lost connection for some time and then drop you to login screen so you can quickly take action to return the control. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blademage Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 I never experienced that issue, but wouldn't the ping indicator in the upper right show endless ping times? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farrago Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 This is good to know because Ive always been told that this was because we were typing in the chat field without knowing it so it just seemed like we had lost control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you sure you did not activate Brace command? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottydog Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Hello. I sent a report but misinformed you regarding the upgrades. She was a well sorted Purple Code ship. Iwas not using brace. I could steer the ship and fire Guns but had zero control over the sails. Regards from Thomas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hullabaloo Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Same here, I've had this a few times and it is only the sails. I can use the rudder, fire, rep etc but the sails won't move or go back to the auto position. It lasts for about a minute and then control returns. Would that still be a packet loss issue? I would have thought you would lose everything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottydog Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 Hello! A clan member of HYDRA is having issues with loss of control of his ship. We have advised him to .... Disconnect and restart the game Check integrity of game Files. Check proper function of Key board. Reinstall NA. After doing this our Player still has no control of his ship. His English is not good, (He is German), so he asked me to contact you about this. Regards from Thomas in the Chaotic Dis United Kingdom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Battle instances with kill missions are lighter in terms of connection demand than instances started from Open World, thus the problem might still be about connection/side programs.

Raekur Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 I am still puzzled at the fact that when multiple people who span half the planet are still the ones at fault for having the connection issue. Got to love the "Not me" attitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
