I think you are talking about two different ships Santa Cecilia is a British/Spanish vessel (previously known as Hermione or Bloody Hermione) L Hermione is a french frigate at one time commanded by Laperouse, and famous for bringing general La fayette to support the american revolution. Santa Cecilia will remain a rare gift ship

Pandora will be provided on release (not before) Kepler (the planet ship) the Pavel Razee is frozen - may get in may not get in we dont know. It kinda does look strange. The rest from your list be provided in some or another form on release and maybe before. Prince de Neufchatel Diana Hermione Wasa Christian VII Some of these ships were player voted vessels and some were added by us. Several unpainted raw hulls for those vessels were provided by players like Ragnar and Bungee. Christian V11 could become a reward ship for one of the quest lines (nordic one) - it wont become a premium ship because of our promise of no premiums above the 3rd rate. Le Hermione and Wasa will definitely be premium vessels. We are not sure about Prince de Neuf... It is beautiful but might be needed to plug a gap in the scout ship lineup. 2 more premium vessels will be taken from current line up. There will be 4 premium ships. Total 2013-2017 Establishment 45 combat ships in game (finished and unfinished) including the variants . 41 excluding the variations like pirate frigate. It is 400% above of original promise of 10 ships (we do not count trader lynx and similar types in the list as they are just ungunned variants) Plans and the state of shipbuilding We have 45 unique combat vessels in game. We originally promised 10 for early access content and we over delivered it 400%, It was possible to player support, likes, clapping, applause. Thank you for helping to make it happen. Short term plans We are not working on any more vessels because we are not sure about the sales results on release (which depend on reviews). We don't even hear praise for ships any more. Some players are even claiming that new ships are not content and everything is just trash..There are some people who made up stories for themselves that we are hiding some huge reserve of ships somewhere to blackmail them. There are no more new ships in hiding or in development. None. To change the situation you have to raise your voice (if you came here "because ships"). next time you hear someone talking about lack of content remind them how many new ships were added since release and point to the fact that ships ARE content and also take time to develop. Speak up, leave the review, tell us that you want new vessels, and help to balance the negative energy with positive.

there is only one guy under admin - me. i am also an art director/designer/producer and part time community manager. I have no time for trolls any more. We are going to clean them all up from here. People who waste our time on off topic or just general (even light) trolling will be removed from now on. They bring no value to making the game better. They will have to learn to talk from @jeheil or stay silent.

5 patches were deployed to testbed. over 3 months. You are replying to a wrong post with wrong information Testbed is the main server until the wipe. We confirmed it on 03/03. Live servers are dead and will only get worked on after the wipe. All the development going to testbed only

You are twisting the facts mate. We announced long ago that we are not patching live servers and patch testbed servers instead. Lots of new features are already on testbed (including admiralty and new structure). More than 5 patches were deployed since december to testbed. Why dont you count them in your research and why you twist the facts this way misrepresenting the patch number?

Try to think of this place as your channel, how do you talk to your users in comments? We never troll players, we always try to explain our positions, if they ask questions we try to answer them (unless the questions are lost in the noise of crap that off topic posters spread). Sometimes our answers may sound too direct but we never address the players the way some players address us (or other players on this forum). It seems to me that you are one of the guys who would fully support our decision to ban the bastards (idiots, jerks) who posted dying animal videos here in this topic/and this forum. So we are going to continue with this way and treat players with respect if they treat others the same way. But we are going to ban the bastards, idiots, jerks from now. Removing them will let everyone talk about problems and features without wasting time on filtering pizzacrap noise .. Right @Christendom? Only trolls would be upset if trolls are banned on the spot; critics would be happy because removing trolls (who create noise), leaves room and space and share of voice to constructive critics.

delivery quests provide some xp

There is a game we work on just for you with wenches and tournaments (wenches after tournaments). Its a separate game. With no open world. Kaos edition

на самом деле изменения к лучшему надо было не затягивать

that the vicious circle we thought we were fixing but in fact it made it worse. We thought Faster travel will lead to more pvp But no.. it wont.. faster travel = less people on ow= less pvp = less people on ow = even less pvp. The more people are on the OW the faster you will find pvp. We turn it into the virtuous circle. No teleports More people on OW Less time to find pvp More people on OW Even less time to find pvp ... But yes - more sailing time in some parts of the world.

how is it different from ports with the exception of the fact that spawn at sea can be camped.

remember that all ships are the same now.. no need for regular uprgades. So if you leveled up a frigate you can buy it anywhere it will be the same (somewhat if you ignore regional refits). Popular spots will be supplied by crafters Repairs will be brought by crafters Some spots will have no ships .. and you might need to sail that brig again.

yes

Port storage will be reworked. You will have X docks but you can use them anywhere where you have outposts/warehouses. So no more 5 per outpost. You can hold your max limit in the capital or in the city of your operations. Number of docks will be upgrade able for money each additional slot will cost a lot more. Speed will remain but we are not finished with the OW speed experiments.

no ships will be added until release or until morale improves there will be 3-4 premium ships crew will be cheaper fire affects rigging if the fire size is big enough.

we just want to be clear. all ships in our game are beautiful and we are learning to make them better as we go. Subjective opinions on the ship visuals are subjective and do not give any ground to demand something extra, just because someone does like new ships than old ones..

We have never seen a negative review about the constitution. People always want more. If they want more they will have to pay for our extra work.

It is very well modeled sir. It is the best USS Constitution ever made in a computer game. 10x better than any competition.

By sailing the world you are providing the target to someone else. All forms of teleports, transport, offline hauling will be removed. If you like first rates more than hauling you will haul. Or you will pay someone to do it. Or you will use fleets of indiaman (which now carry cargo) to haul 3x less. But you will haul on the map risking your cargo for enemy privateers. (or you will use expensive marks to pay for teleports which still means someone sailed and risked his ship doing it).

в ближайшее время до конца недели (в оптимистичном прогнозе)

появится не раньше релиза и может быть будет премом (которых будет всего три-четыре)

WASA

There are people with different view on the subject Over time we came to appreciate the comments mentioned in that video. To give players targets you have to be a target too. Building a first rate will take a month or more and will require national level of effort. etc etc. EA is coming to the end and the game is getting in shape.

You wont have to buy it. Naval action owners will get it for free. But future buyers of one of the games will be better off because no-one will sit on two chairs and tries to satisfy two vastly different audiences. Realistic open world sandbox - will no longer try to sit on two chairs and will clearly state that it is not for players who look for balanced battles with 10-30 mins of free time in the evening.
