Rattlesnake should have a snake figurehead. "Join or Die", "Dont tread on me" kind of figurehead. The figure on the wooden model is just an artist's creative view on the subject. And yes. its a proper - right - "rattlesnake" ship. testing cannon size suitability on the model.

Pirates vs Pirates currently is Free for All. Yarrr! We plan to add friendly fire counters that will influence player Karma. But for now pirates can attack other pirates without consequences. We will not of course interfere if pirates will come to some agreement forming brotherhoods and such. (after clan mechanics is added in the future. Please post your suggestions in the open world forum sub section if you think the pirates vs pirates mechanics and interactions could be improved.

Open World for rest of players
admin replied to beatboy's topic in Patch Feedback and General discussions
It's tentative at patch 2 (eta 1.5 weeks) if new server infrastructure works properly. If it does not it's guaranteed at patch 3 (another 2 weeks) or somewhere in between. short version: it will happen within 30 days from today. -
You can do it yes.

3-way/multiple nation battles
admin replied to Jack Frost's topic in Current Feature Improvement Suggestions
12 players could provide some serious challenge on the map even in basic lynxes. Not sure if ganking was the reason. Ps. How could you buy them ships? or you are talking about a different game? -
Some basic statistic trackers will be in game.

Yes. Coming to a stop Man of War fashion. We want to experiment with anchors in the future. Some day it might happen. This maneuver is already possible in game - but without the anchor animations

stealing the prizes. interfering with the battle you almost won using all repairs and many other concerns will be created if several enemy nations are allowed to enter one battle. -
Giving commands to NPC ships
admin replied to Sigurd's topic in Current Feature Improvement Suggestions
Highest ranking officer in battle will be able to give commands to NPCs in the future. You will also be able to hire NPC escorts who will join you in battles. These NPCs will only be commanded by you. Flag commands won't happen in the foreseeable future. Just commands. -
thats a temp mechanic. It means that that bot is a part of the fleet, but fleets are not yet connect to battles in full.

I might be wrong, but you need to enable the steam overlay. That can be brought up with a keyboard combination. from there you can chat with people on your friend list

Attaching Photos In Post
admin replied to Balsafer's topic in Forum and website problems and improvements
the best way to add photos is imgur.com or similar service. just add bb code they generate to the post. -
That was caused by using a magic unknown port located at 0 on the map. Port was deleted and now game UI does not know what to do with you. investigating

Internet latency problems...

Before release regions distant from Europe and East coast will suffer from higher pings. We are not aware of the problem that players with high ping cause issues for others. -
Прототип открытого мира - правила ведения боев, потеря корабля и respawn
admin replied to slik's topic in Обсуждение проекта
Капитан просто не выходил из Кристианстеда на Линксе Неуяз и невидимость дает капитану время прогрузится и осмотреться после выхода из порта или из боя. Так как это на сервере на современных немецких серверах то это не магия. Магия это когда молнией в дыню, или разбить строй. -
Wind Scale, wind effect on a Ship
admin replied to Ned Loe's topic in Current Feature Improvement Suggestions
Wind speed changes are tricky because many users will be eventually annoyed if their ship instead of sailing 12knots will stop to a halt. -
1) We have no references on the 42 lb variants. But we do have extensive data that both short pattern and long pattern 18lb 12lb 24lb and 32lb existed and were used extensively. 2) Is it empirical/theoretical assumption? that long guns shoot projectile slower? We believe that the longer the barrel the better is the velocity and energy. ps One documentary on the ship cannon shown that a restored old cannon could achieve almost sonic speed.

Naming of guns should not confuse you. We name long guns this way not because they are extra long, but because there are longer than the shorter versions And shorter versions existed and were extensively used. For example Blomfield pattern short 18 pounders. Admiralties were always searching to find the way to reduce weight and length of large caliber guns. There were experiments with very short lightweight 24lb cannons and even 32lb cannons. Shorter models experimentation eventually led to carronades invention. In reality long guns was used for all cannons that were long enough (i think)

We suggest that you stop grinding and start enjoying , because everyone will get access to the open world in the near future What would you feel when we start giving open access to all buyers, even those who dont have anything? We are not sure why you self-impose some obligations on yourself. we are not forcing you to do it. Just play normally and enjoy yourself. Once the servers are ready for more people we will invite everyone.

two reasons 1) his email was connected to spam activity somewhere - or is very very similar to such email 2) he made some mistakes in the registration. often users forget the login name or mix up the letters in it.. like blacksails112 instead of blacksails121 -

Balsafer please post in appropriate sections. forum problems belong to forum problems section not general discussion -
report crashes by using the sub menu before launching the game from steam. (Not in game - because your logs are overwritten then) but after a crash double click on the game name in Steam - and instead of launching the game use Report Crash option.
