Classy

Sure, but everyone behind shared internet would have to apply? That sounds like a disaster for sales.

But then family members playing together would get hit. Imagine strangers in a dorm, collective or any other co-living shared IP situation.

How do they deal with alts in any other game where alts are useful?

Also, tell me more about...

Dunno where you're coming from, but I'm referring to those that want historical speed + gazelle + stay/main + bovenwinds + copper + cotton + speed trim... Even that list isn't exhaustive. Somehow ships become cookie-cutter if they can't have all that without speedcap!? Speedcap isn't the problem. We took a deep dive into the PVE grind rabbit hole of books, upgrades and rare loot drops. We need speed cap to avoid ending up in la-la land. I wish we never even got remotely close to needing speed cap.

Sure, but not as much as you think. What's truly crazy is the speeds you guys want your non-speedcapped ships to reach.

Pray to the pig cloud... Oh, snap!

We have a term for this in Norway: Keyboard tough guy. (It rhymes for us though 😉)

Minimal speed mods is best speed mods.

Admin has also said (something along the lines of...) If we had simple (stupid: my words) "fighting mechanics" like EVE that would free up a ton of resources for other things. I don't need anything but the actual fighting in NA and that has kept me going for years and will keep me here for years to come. I don't even shed half a tear for the lack of some eye candy thing.

I guess I can help a little when it comes to speed, but I have published everything I've found already. I'm on vacation right now so I'll make a proper reply when back at my computer. Some of the people that REALLY know their shit are Black Spawn and qw569.

Like other similar games premium time (accelerated grind) will be main income. Premium ships is prolly the first runner-up.

Part of me wants to poke at this... "Oh, so you love the economy and the fact that loss matters but it's hard to get players to provide PvP content?" _____________________________ I understand the frustration because I used to share it, deeply. I've just come to terms with OW being mainly an eco thing where players only pvp if extremely motivated or forced. Who are these sandbox AND PvP lovers who expect to have a cake and eat it too? How can OW have a higher pvp/pve ratio than the pitiful small ratio they have in EVE? I presume every eco lover at least knows about EVE and how things are there. Admin quoted some numbers a long time ago and I don't remember exactly; But think along the lines of pvp/pve ratio of 1/100 - 1/500. Aren't you asking the impossible? How can we get more PvP players when everything is under the heel of eco? Isn't that what you wanted, an eco game where "stuff matters"?

Oh, gawd! That's offensive. "How I learned to hate speed mods." Crafting system is great, please don't let mods sideline it!

How is that compared to, say, April?

In CS and relatively speaking compared to pre austerity patch: Very few big ships. Maybe da-no is unique in that regard?

Can't say for sure if they're negative or positive from the numbers alone. The wording makes it sound like something you'd never want to put on, but upgrades are something you should want to put on so it's most likely a case of unfinished description. Toss in one extra word and we have - and - makes +.

No changes in API at least.

I always try to aim for the easiest option preferably with the highest chance of success.

Sounds like a good reason to nerf thickness mods to avoid unintended balance and gameplay problems.

Interesting! Could you please explain it like I'm stupid? I haven't done PBs in a very long time.

yay!

How would you feel if connie, aga or 3rd was an admiralty note ship while Wasa was craftable only?

It has a function when there is a queue to get into the servers, I hope that happens again. Let the devs work on important stuff, you can easily fix your problem with the super-easy tinytask proggie (or keyboard macro, or...).
