In the early stages it will stay like today (crew focus based) with one difference - your crew will not be a unified mass and will be damaged deck by deck. Eventually we will expand it to look similar to a silent hunter 3 (at least the plans are to do so) Usually a captain of that time had from 1 to 37 servants and officers to handle maintenance. Initially maintenance will look like a total repair bill - you give cash to your purser and he takes care of everything. Ramming damage and mechanics will be improved. Ship mass will play a bigger role in who damages who. Private servers give the options to get access to full source code and will increase chances for hacking on the official servers. But it could be possible in the distant future - everything depends on the population in the game after release. Basic RPG for officers and players is planned Name is almost final, but we have a sea-legends.com domain ownership just in case. We are going to sell copies and sell premium content (ships) in the store. Paying for admiralty connections (a-la premium account) is under consideration but doubtful, we don't know yet how much support the game will require on the ongoing basis. This feature is not currently planned. If requested a lot we might consider it. 1. not sure what gold you mean 2. fishing and shipwreck hunting is planned 3. simple crafting is planned 4. no quests in the near future - initially the game will be combat and crafting oriented. exploration will be added as well. That ship most likely damaged a lot of ships but did not give enough damage to count as a kill. Kill is awarded to a ship giving most damage. If you keep away from fire sectors of large ships or time your movement to avoid their broadsides you can rake in a lot of damage points even in Lynx

Votekick is a tricky feature. In Archeage (russian servers) it was abused and eventually switched off. Imagine a situation where you as a legitimate player join the battle and then vote kicked out for no reason. Adding a bot to disconnected player will inspire botting, some players will abuse it. But we will think about this feature, there might be ways to make it work.

Hello Captain As previous posters noted - Everything is on the servers - even water.

such issues are best reported by F11 - at least we receive the logs for such things happening

ignore everything on those videos and screens please.. and keep your expectations extremely low. 150knots will help you in that

My open world coder is sick this weekend and because of that I am stuck at St Kitts - St Vincent line of islands, because when I travel there i can see islands far far away, and see NPC traffic. No compass and no map is very fun. Whenever i am trying to reach Hispaniola I keep getting lost. Correct sunrise and stars are not connected yet.. feel like Columbus in the Atlantic. 150 kn is a time compression speed. It takes 30 mins to 1 hour to reach Puerto Rico from Monserratt at this speed

Thanks for asking Captains - we all appreciate this a lot. We are located in Kiev and doing ok. But if something changes we will let you know first. Locking this topic - Too much politics and instability in the world we want to keep this forum for age of sail discussions.

And use PayPal

Evening captains.. There is no reason to post here as nobody will help in the topic unfortunately. If you post here support cannot help you as they lack info. There is a simple and 100% effective process described in the news section. Please follow it and you will get your keys. http://forum.game-labs.net/index.php?/topic/2018-help-missing-steam-key-email-what-to-do/

in process guys 19-00 pm +/- 20 mins kiev time cut off time

usual weekly post))) thank you captains for cover. We will send keys today.

Hello captains new update We will be sending keys today. All purchases done before 19-00 pm kiev time will be sent the key. Send out will be done between 9pm and 10pm.. you will get the key by 10-30pm or 11 latest (kiev time). If you are one of the few who won't get the key today - that means 3 things (as always) 1) key got into spam folder (check it first) 2) your provider declined our email (considers its spam) and you have to contact our support (at) navalaction.com 3) you used a e-check or other non-instant payment and your payment is still processing (and will be delivered next week on Friday) In all three cases don't hesitate to contact us for support.

Naval Action is a computer game. Modern multiplayer tech does not allow good quality destruction models for large battles (with 40+ ships in them). Indicator helps to too see which side is damaged more without significant investments into visuals (that are expensive to produce and tax performance as well). Chess shows you everything and still it is a very deep tactical game.

Вот объясните вы что все такие озлобленные?

We are not planning to dumb down the game. We don't have plans to cater to millions. We need to sell 100,000 copies and have 10000 live players to be happy, providing good income for dev team. We know that niche products can make good money (Porsche). There will be no +1 +2 flying numbers on the screen. But we are sure some modders will implement them. There will be no sword fighting - we don't have people who can do it well. But upgrades and better officers will be in game. You will be able to capture or craft ships from better wood, or forge better cannons from better iron. On the pirates in first rates we cannot guarantee it - we have provided the calculation in this topic http://forum.game-labs.net/index.php?/topic/537-the-economy-and-1st-rates/?p=22625 in 1800 Prices Cost of HMS Victory (and it was kind of low on decor) was 64,000 pounds. Before Nelson got it it was refurbished and repaired for another 73000 pounds. approximate numbers Average pay for a ship of the line captain was 35 pounds per month. Average prize money for a non private ship was 275 pounds (sometimes more, more often less) Cost of salaries for a 1st rate were more than 2000 pounds per month So using realistic 1800 prices you need to capture 236 average ships for the admiralty (cos they keep the ship) to support the cost of the 1st rate. + You need around 2000-3000 pounds per month to maintain the ship If you are capturing for yourself (pirating)- and selling ships you will need less than 236 ships (eg you caught a trader with diamonds). One of the testers McDoran - has like 700 battles already. Probably he will be a solo pirate in game. He won 50% of them - meaning he captured 350 ships. Thus - pirates sailing first rates is possible in the game environment. 3 months of daily gameplay and very active players can have a first rate cost equivalent in their pocket. Unless we adjust the pricing of first rates to make them possible only as National projects (a-la wonders in Civilization games) Most of you have already seen more battles than an average captain of that time. Many of you want to have a first rate in the dock..

We can provide a quick fix next patch giving the option in settings to change some UI colors to more colorblind friendly. Please propose for which UI elements you want to have this option? which colors you want to see instead of current ones?

will investigate

You probably are subscribed to a forum section and receive notifications on every post in that section. Some spammers are able to register (using clean emails) and post spam messages - which sends you a notification (because you are signed up to receive notifications in that forum) .

It happens.. Our game (agreed) is very heavy on the system requirements due to water. In the future it will be optimized a bit better, but not much. We will also provide wider selection for graphical settings. meanwhile please report your log and settings by F11 stating low fps - we will check it out.

hello. we are responding to support daily and always. If you have not been replied that means that your email provider considers us hostile spammers and that explains the reason you have not go the key. Contacted you in private.

write to support please. they will try to help
