Sir Texas Sir

Can it enter regionals though?

Isn't like every one international to every one else? I mean I'm a US gamer that plays both US and Pirate, so to me every one else is International including the Brits. Though I have notice that the US and Brits tend to get a lot of these chest, but I think it's more cause they are the most populated game nations and that is why they have more odds to get stuff. This also means they tend to be more powerful and continue to be more powerful cause they have stuff other nations don't. Nice concept, but this isn't how things work. Every one is going to be pissed and leave there nations to get the better goodies or get tired of being steamed rolled by those that have the better items. This has thrown game balance way out of the window. People won't even fight in shallow water cause of the Heavy Rattler Zerg on my server from one nation that has the Blue Print. The proper way to make this work is you give the BP's to the smaller building nations and than give it to the strong ones later. That is called game balance something it seems there is little concept of when thinking of things like these events.

Again I will say it for the billionth time. You want diffrent port times you take a port and set it. If you set it out of prime time than don't complain when we come and take it cause a few of us stay up and take the port. Not to mention most of the ports are set for a 4 hours prime time. 00-02 and 02-04 UTC so we can get in two battles in one night and than most of use PvP after that until servers go down. YOU KNOW PVP the thing you make by going out hunting other ships. We been sitting out side KPR most the nights after PB"s but rarely get anything other than a new player or clanless that will come out and play. Maybe the issue is not the port time it's the fact a lot of folks won't come out and fight when others want too.

The first event I know one from the PvP2 server got some, but to be honest we been mainly seeing only US and British players getting all the chest...oddly some how the most pop nations are right there ready to empty every thing in like 10 mins. Back on topic can you folks can't find a clear day to make your pictures? I really like that Swish Guard though. I just don't want to pay the cost of a 1st rate for a paint that is stuck with a ship that might get sunk in battle, cause I'm sorry my ships aren't going to stay in dock cause they are pretty. Every one that got these prints are making a killing right now on every one else.

20-30 is a bit to much, but I can see maybe making it 10 in the capital and 5 every where else. That are do the drydock thing. many folks I know use there FLEET slots for drydock spots. I would be happy with 10 ports, but a drydock system in the capital would be cool too. Than it's there lost and they had no clue what an EA Alpha means. To be honest I think when the game goes live we should start all over with maybe a few gift for doing NA, but we have to level all over like new players will have to. So a wipe of a port is nothing.

Makes you wonder when more than 50% of that battle is US and not Brit? I mean is all the Brit big boys giving up on there nation US has to fight the fight for them? Either way bring it on we will enjoy it.

Are according to ship type that is wrecked. I would expect a bigger reward for bigger ships than something small. Oh and all I'm getting now is green mods. They are going straight into the national shop cause I can make MC and well pretty much use BLUE and up.

Maybe it would be good to do a weekend instead of a while week. I'm all ready seeing folks saying they won't log on that week other than to do there econ or maybe some Port Battles since we can't PvP on OW. Here is another thing maybe only do this on one of the servers and not both of the PvP servers.

Than get bigger kits, those small are ment for smaller ships and crew.

I didn't even know there was a PvE server? I thought that was what the PvP servers are now a days with so many folks not wanting to PvP during events and such.

The funny thing is if there is an event that you have to have them happen and all those folks that broke theirs up suddenly find they don't have a ship for the event lol

Would make it a lot more easy to find them when in a group. Wish groups also listed ranks so you can see other than by ships what missiosn you can or want to do with your group. Also a nice way to know if some one in your group was doing the undercrew thing.

I was just popping on here to post the same thing. Yah I even warned him I was going full ramming speed. Though I would have to say until some lucky ball shot demasted him he was like this little annoying nat and we where laughing so hard in TS.

Those timers where set by your team for the port and than again by who ever captures it. If you want times around when your on more than capture a port and set the timer to your prime time, but when you can't defend it and it gets taken don't complain cause it wasn't in the servers population prime time. We been capturing a lot of ports without a fight cause people put odd timers on the ports and don't expect folks to stay up or get on early and attack those ports.

Fixed that for you. As for the OP maybe all the waiting is good for the game. Not every one wants a fast paced areana style games. I do other things like watch TV and get stuff down during a lot of those wait times you speak of. Maybe this game just isn't for you. It's not made for every one. I can't stand the CoD arena style games. I have bought some when they use to have decent campanges with them, but after I beat that part I never really touch the multiplayer stuff. Not every game is going to be for every player.

They havened on all the servers at the same time, my complaint was that there was no Mods/Devs on PvP2 or PvE to give hints to check on post about it so PvP1 got a heads up over every one else about what was going on in the events.

They can only be used on one ship and it's not the Buc

I was just about to post the same thing. It's like none of them can wait for a day time screen shot?

Remember if you surrender you don't loose your crew or officer lives. Though I agree it would be nice to have an option to surrender and give a ransom to keep part of your cargo and ship and go on your marry way. It's not like the warships can carry every thing. This would be great to imploment if they forced you to sale your prize ships back instead of magically telporting them back to a port. Unless it's a small trader most cargo is in a hold and would be hard to actually just dump over board. The things that get dumped are smaller contraband not the full cargo hold. Fireship is kinda this option but hay who is going to put that mod on all there traders, specially when most the times I get away cause I'm speed fitted to run on most my shallow water traders. The LVG on the other hand are made to be slow and full of MARINES for counter boarding lol

That low of a level it's not hard to level up with your officer. Yes when you reset it, it resets to the start of that level. Which means you loose any earned xp. So if your wise you only do it right after you rank the officer up or while you have very little xp on him. That or once you get him to level 10. Geee guys you don't have to pay 3 perk levels any more stop complaining and that is what they talk about it's free now. It use to cost you three levels every time you reset the officer.

People never read forum rules and EULA of things. Oh and last I check the 1st Admid doesn't mean crap when it's dealing with a company from another country and well this is like many have said a private forum with there own rules.

Did you check in a battle? I know a lot of graphic stuff is left off in the OW.

I think this event would of been better if they did more than one big wreck spread out over the day at diffrent times and in diffrent areas. Many folks didn't even make it half way there and it seem it was more for those that had ports in that area or even just lucked out. I can't have ports every where. Would be nice if we had 10 ports instead of 8 cause I'll tell you I would now have a port over there if I could do it and keep a decent area of influence for PB"s and PvP along with my econ. 2 more ports would really help out. Even folks that left from Key's didn't make it in time to get any loot.

Again those timers are set for all types of hours and the port owner sets them. You don't like the hours drop the flag yourself when you take it and set your own timer.

To be honest most of the ports we take are open timmers or set to some odd time that they think no one will stay up and do. Well we stay up and hit those ports and captured them cause no one is on to defend them. We don't set the times it's who ever captured that port. So it's only our own ports that have timers.
