Player-selected ships 2015 - Final poll

[Brigand]

Hate to nitpick, but for the Amsterdam, "Spiegel retour schip" should be translated as "Transom return ship". Sure, a 'spiegel' is a mirror, but a 'spiegel' in nautical terms means 'Transom'.

 

Cheers,

Brigand

A three-man race so far!

[Leviathan]

I do absolutely love the paint scheme of the Bonhomme Richard and hope it makes it one day. A very classy and historical ship.

 

However, my vote had to go for the Rattlesnake.

[A Mari Usque Ad Mare]

Your image of Indefatigable is quite an abomination, not sure what the people who created the model were drinking?  Would be good to have a better image. She was a beautiful ship!

[Leviathan]

That version does look much better

We will use your model of course Captain. Post it here by the way - it's gorgeous.

Yeah, that's quite a horrible model (all work on details and forgetting overall shape and appearance, I hate this)

 

Here is the side profile of one of the other 64s razeed at the same time as Indefatigable, Magnanime (3rd example was HMS Anson), beautiful ships even by frigate standards.

 

[Prater]

Why vote for the Independence?  She wasn't a Razee until after the time period of this game, and during this time period she wasn't used in battle at all...the Christian VII or another 2nd rate would be much better.

 

Vote had to go to Rattlesnake for the sake of being a corvette and a ship smaller than a line ship.

[NorthernWolves]

Voted Rattlesnake. I want to note that if/when the USS Independence makes into the game it should be a 90 gun ship of the line, it wasn't razeed until 1836, well outside the timeframe.

[A Mari Usque Ad Mare]

We will use your model of course Captain. Post it here by the way - it's gorgeous.

[Leviathan]

That looks 1000x better. Very nice model

[Rafael]

But but but I want all of them!!! haha

[SerrialKiller]

Voted for the Amsterdam not for the reason im from Holland but the ship itself is beautiful build been at both of them. I cannit whayt till they finish the seven provincien flagship that is beeying build in the shipyard in Lelystad. I Voted for it because most developers leth the dutch out of games while we played a big role in the naval warfare and trade.

[Panzergraf]

I voted for the USS Independence, because it would be nice to have something between the USS Constitution and the HMS Bellona.

My second vote, if I had one, would go the Christian VII, to bridge the gap between the Bellona and Victory. Also, as a Norwegian I would personally be happy if the Danish-Norwegian navy was represented.
Btw, a beautiful wooden model of Den Norske Løve (a Danish 74) at the local library was something that got me interested in ships of the era as a kid

[Mahlitz]

I made my vote for Christian VII  The last of the great king ships from the Dano-norwegian navy who can deny her beauty

[Carlo.A.Morabito.Diaz]

I would love to see another 1st rate in the game so i voted for ocean classe bur its last at the moment????

[Carlo.A.Morabito.Diaz]

i might change vote to the temeraire if ocean classe is too low. Naval action where are the spanish ships at??

[Bixol]

after reading the development programm of 2015 i have to rethink my vote, still not sure for what ship i will go... maybe rattlesnake?

[Illusive Tabby]

  More lineships are not needed. Rattlesnake all the way. If I had a second vote it would be Amsterdam or Boheme Richard.

[Inigo Balboa aka Ronda]

It's interesting how votes change if you limit the number of choices . Nelson's Agamemnon was in top 5 previously.

 

Same as last year?)   And Hermione too if I remember correctly.

[Mirones]

Indiaman!

[Leviathan]

There is a long way to go but I wouldn't be disappointed to see the current top 3 make it. There would be something for everyone.

 

Powerful Warship

Armed Merchantman

Fast Privateer

[Kleinburger]

So Admin what ship would you vote for ? 

[max_86]

Imho devs will choose between the third ship at the end of the poll and the Christian VII. The first three ships are all good and it seems they need a 2nd rate.

[Bixol]

what i think most guys don't realise is, that this isn't a vote for what ship should get ingame becaue of "it's needed for balance" or for "better progression steps"

also we should NOT vote for what is missing ingame.

 

Somewhere Admin stated that we should vote only for what we like the most

we should not care about what the games is missing or whatever. only on what we think would be cool to have ingame

 

Also consider that this should be a vote on "long term"

This means it doesen't make sense if you vote for a ship you only want to get hands on in sea trials, probably you should vote for a ship you will sail also wenn the game is launched.
