Never Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 What about pvp rewards? the main item you loot from pvp is doubloons. So will there new loot from sunken ships? or new real rewards added to pvp missions? Or are you suggesting we should all become traders? haha already elite guns, ships notes, elite books, all drop PvE kills only. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Server is having issues: We crashed it with too much testing already. You can't enter/leave battles or ports at the moment (at least from what I'm reading in global/discord).

Malcolm3 Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 @admin Malabar Teak is still Trading Good not Resource, so you can't put a contract for buying or selling it. That should be fixed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swedish Berserker Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 2 hours ago, admin said: Patch is being deployed today 18th June Conquest changes War server Several Test chests will be given to all players until Monday to test Conquest flag. Conquest flag flow Use the flag Exit port and sail to the destination Place the flag near the enemy port (4000 m) - size of the circle is indicated on the picture Flag carrier will be sent to the instance Instance entry rules will be the same as port battle (allies only) Reinforcements will be positional Attackers enter near the flag carrier Defender will enter outside of the 800m radius from the flag carrier Conquest flag will be bind on receive (if you get the flag only you can use it) Flag wont work if player changes nation Testing stage will be different in this way. Port battle wont be organized up after flag placement - feel free to place flags on ports without fear of setting up the port battle this can cause abnormal number of messages for clan owners but its ok. Amount of ports that you can stat hostility has been increased from 2 nearest to 10 nearest - for testing Flag placement quest was added temporarily to motivate placement of flags. PVP Hunters are encouraged to sink conquest flag carriers and generally interfere with flag placement. We might give something mildly interesting to those who sink the most. The test will run till next week. Next week port battles will be switched ON Port battles on Peace server Port battles return to Peace server Raiders start attacking ports again. Missions can now only be taken in the port battle time slot Timber. New timber stats have been added In general the changes can be characterized as following. Every timber will have main strength point and secondary strength points. Every timber will have a strong weakness (some stronger or weaker) Oaks - HP and Structure HP (hull), secondary - resistance. Teaks - hardness and resistance, secondary - hp Firs - speed and acceleration, secondary - splinter damage Other - specialized woods, giving strong bonuses in one area. We tried to keep old popular (meta) woods around the same levels they were before. Please provide feedback on the philosophy and provide feedback on changes or mistakes you spot. Table: link: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1mM1LEvwbt1tXOudiDUpTsT97wum_DvZDEs-S1YrkVBw (for some reason this link does not show in new microsoft browsers) Shipbuilding Doubloons have been removed from crafting. "Real" cost to build has been added to crafting. Blueprints have been rebalanced mainly in the area of distribution of timber between frame and planking (trim). Combat balancing Overall acceleration was slowed by 20% across all vessels. Deceleration has been left untouched. ps The current difference with acceleration (after patch) with old sea trials is 200% (current ships accelerate 200% faster), we dont want to drop it as fast but in general we believe current acceleration is too high which allows easy stern camping without planning. Slower acceleration will force planning and will make sterncamping a maneuver you must plan ahead. We still believe acceleration is too high. Caps have been increased for speed, reloads, thickness, and HP. But not by much. Sound pretty good to me have to investigate closer to give final feedback though!! Thanks you for lissening to the community in the case of the Mets wood tipes!! Great job looking forward to test the flag system!!

That should be fixed Contracts can be camped, creating abnormal price pressure on the good. Goods without contracts can be bought if you are in port when they dropped.

But because this is causing confusion and upset people ALL cap numbers will be hidden So rather than give us the actual cap values, you're going to remove everything? This impacts being able to plan ship builds on useful tools such as felix's map. Instead of "You're looking at the wrong values, you need to look at these" it's "We're going to removal all values". Sounds logical... All we want is to know what these caps are so when we build ships for certain things (ie: HP), we don't end up with a nasty surprise. EDIT: Looks like Felix has manually coded caps into his tool, but it would be nice if we could get accurate values still using API/Something. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vitasalato Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 Will the new woods drops from wooden chest? Also looks like there might be some issue with the stats. Turnrate is the same for LoS/woS and TeakS/woS. Still needs to be tested in battle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slim McSauce Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 1 hour ago, admin said: Which means other things start to matter (not only speed) For example: fast bellonas (historically) will no longer be able to actively pursue frigates in turning fights (they will lose energy and accelerate slower) This is a great change that will improve the quality of battles immensely, many German and American captains will be pleased at the return of boom and zoom, and preserving energy through efficient manuever that will extend the range of their tactics in the right direction! Inb4 turn n burn weenies try to tell you otherwise. 20knts across water is nuts, hope you know what you're doing 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still needs to be tested in battle turn rate is determined by ship length and rudder size - and is no longer dependent on wood So yes. turn rates for these ships is identical 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically to collect rare woods we have to travel around all the map or they will drop in every ports? Or at least in many inside the same region?
