Questions to developers


Recommended Posts

 Edit: I can't view the link you gave out, it says I don't have a permission to see it  :ph34r:

 

Here is the link, updated: Current list of planned fixes and known issues

 

 

1) Will we be able to reserve our name/ign for the release?

 

2) How long will the dev keep updating this game? Even after release?

 

3) Will this game have an expansion eventually?

 

To be more specific, will they add more regions someday?

 

1) Not sure about reserving names yet.

 

2) It's difficult to tell, but it is planned to update the game for quite a while. Let's say as long as the revenues cover the costs of maintenance and updates.

 

3) It depends on the population of the game. A big new region would take approximately 3-5 months to be built, depending on the research needed.

 

 

Why is this most recent change to the forum layout such a mess? No offence. 

 

Please report issues with forums or propose improvements here.

1. Whether there will be a Summer order 2015?

2.This year you will participate in exhibitions of the game industry? If yes that where?

 

1. The next open availability of the game will happen with the Steam Early Access - most likely on summer.

2. There aren't any plans to attend exhibitions until launch. Once the game is done, more will be spent on marketing.

 

 

very important question that i am sure everyone testing in OW is needing to know the answer to..How much shampoo per each Herring is needed? I keep testing it but they all seem to taste bad after shampooing!

 

One per wig ?

They were planning to push it to Thursday to allow a "fix" for being stuck in port with a damaged ship and not enough gold to fix it.  We're waiting to hear if/when they'll be patching right now.   :)

Cheers Henry.

No, on the contrary, I mean the port on each side that is as far forward as possible. Near the bow, near the anchor(s). Btw, the two ports look as if they were partly obstructed by the anchor and room on deck may not be enough for a gun.

Dear sirs developers, whether you to release of game can build in a voice communication it how it was made now in tanks? When directly in fight the group is formed and can communicate. Very convenient thing, especially when not acquaintances to the aid come.

Unless there is something wrong with the 3D model, those ports do not appear to be intended for guns.

I asked our naval specialist Surcouf in the french forum  http://forum.game-labs.net/index.php?/user/5241-surcouf/

 

As the stern ports, these two bow ports are made to chase.

Most of the time, they were empty and closed. When needed, one took the nearby gun and put it in the bow port for chasing. That feature isn't implemented in NA yet.

One had to clean the place and space on deck was limited near the bow.

By the way, the bow guns weren't parallel to the keel, so one has to tack to correctly fire these guns.

 

On the other hand, when the ship was armed with caronnades, long-guns were used in this ports.

 

So my questions to the developers are now :

- When or will we ever be able to use these stern and bow ports on small ships ?

- Will the use of the nearby gun to fill the empty stern and bow ports be implemented in NA ?

It could be a great feature : one would have to wait awhile before firing stern and bow guns (some could think that it's too easy and unrealistic right now).

I was wondering if we can get au updated devellopment map. I think the OW open to all was a big one and you were pretty close to your expected dates. Is it safe to assume the next items are crafting, economy, clans support and port battles before the masses from Steam EA are alllowed in?

These are the priorities we are working on for the next 1-2 months

 

1) Improved boarding

2) Improved spawns

3) Improved repair mechanics

4) Improved trading

5) Finalize AI

6) Tune ship stats based on your feedback

7) Tune ROE based on your feedback

8) Improved fleets for players

9) Gameplay critical bugs

10) New vessels

Are game will be relased in november as birds whisper me few days ago?

 

Developers are not good with predictions. 

The only reason we are not on Steam yet is crowd control. We cannot increase prices easily there and cannot open or close the store in case we have too many users to handle. If too many people come crashing the servers everyone will be unhappy. And we all know the bugs that needed to be fixed and mechanics to be improved to be ready for release.

Are port battles out of the equation now? I remember they were listed for a patch in about three weeks time, but they aren't in the list above anymore. Is it a glitch or have priorities changed?

Port battle set up ruleset is still under design.
