admin Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Patch will be deployed this or beginning of next week. Preliminary info on important contents. Finalization of battle rewards (properly calculated even if you switch ships to avoid players losing marks if they switched to enemy ship and later sank it) Bot fixes Almost all bot routes through land will be fixed NPC hugging will be fixed - bots will always fire if they have a shot. NPC reload freezes will be fixed Crafting rebalance ( @Coco patch) Crafting levels will be changed (there will be only 7 ranks) and thresholds rebalanced Former free towns will be added to nearby counties. This will cause the reposition of standard resources in those counties Building wipe will be required Additional PVP upgrades for the admiralty. Group missions will return Delivery missions will be adapted to allow players to make some money on short term r Final pre-release DLCs will be added (when valve approves the pages) L'Hermione - french concorde class frigate Rattvisan (Ретвизан) 24lb gun forth rate Pandora might get in as well. We will try hard to push port management into the build but it is looking unlikely. Port investments allowing expansion of resources will be deployed in the hotfix if this feature does not get in with patch. 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angus MacDuff Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 4 minutes ago, admin said: no third rates and above. Rattvisan (1763) the 64? That's arguable as a SOL but fair enough. I guess its the same class as Agamemnon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teutonic Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 eh... I'm looking forward to group missions and the eventual port management.. but more pvp upgrades? a large DLC drop of ships? It's like every new ship will be a DLC now, what a drag. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teutonic Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Also. Nothing on Ship stat re-balancing? Should we expect it to come? Nothing on permits being too limiting? it's just - "yeah they good?" ..... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Socialism Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 (edited) Anything on ROE changes or changes to the roaming ent tree forests limiting RVR woods? Edited March 25, 2019 by Socialism 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this will be interesting; we've seen from the herc/requin that players will act more aggressively, and PVP more when they have redeemable ships. Expanding that to 5ths/4ths I hope will have a positive effect on the frequency of PVP! But... I don't think we can have both a wide array of DLC redeemable ships AND the present system of ultra-rare/expensive permits for so many ships. The influx of DLC ships that will almost certainly make up a majority of PVP traffic has to be countered by a diverse and competent selection of craftable ships for those not willing to pay for DLCs to compete. Right now with so many ships locked away under rare or expensive permits, the selection of non-DLC ships is limited and new players would probably be daunted. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only DLC ship that should have been considered would have been the Hermione, even that is a stretch. A good number of folks have asked for changes to current ships, permits, RoE - but it seems to not be addressed at this time. I only hope something is in the works... 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Latron Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 I feel like the DLC ships we already have are destroying the meta. Sinking them doesn't even feel satisfying since they are so easily replaced. Even larger DLC ships are sure dominate the seas when so many players are chickens when it comes to losing something with actual value. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make them "Imported ship" so we cannot trade them or capture them, but make it so that the crafting permit is redeemable from the DLC, not the actual ship-note like Hercules/Le Requin. A 24/48 hour redeemable live/white teak/white 4th rate is going to bring all the problems of the Hercules in the past x10. Please. 28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aerospace Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Making L'Hermione as DLC is a good decision, all around ship which is not OP compared to other 5th rates. Rattvisan (Ретвизан) 24lb gun forth rate ? with 60 guns ? as dlc ... I hope this will not be another LRQ in her class. Former free towns will be added to nearby counties ? Shroud / La Tortue are we losing them as freetowns ? If so what a weird decision... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baptiste Gallouédec Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Any sneak pics of that Rattvisan ? Is it simply the Wasa model with 24lb instead of 32lb deck ? Weird move but why not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Farseer Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Rättvisan is a Swedish Wasa-Class third rate, (was later captuered by Russia) but okey-dokey, whatever you say... 4th rate it is... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
