1 unique number per player in the battle, to make things more easy - Numbers from 1 to 50 Next to the Player's name in the playerboard when pressing tab On the Map either on the ship icon or next to it, whatever works better Next to the name of the player above the ship in the battle itself Allows for easier communication. So no more "I NEED HELP!!", but rather "17 here, Nr. 29 is showing us his weak side." Also less misunderstandings, aka English Speakers not being able to pronounce russian / french / ... names (or vice versa) and others picking up something different, going after someone else as a result

as far as i know, cutters can join PvE Battles (battles that were started vs. an npc) Battles that were started vs. a basic cutter In this case, the herc. tagged a cutter, as you can see in the picture posted.

I can see this becoming very annoying very quick. And also see the "you only won because of storm" arguments.

I guess the poll results are quite telling. IMHO we need More Spots in the OW where people can willingly PvP each other (fixed RoE) A small 100% safe high sec. zone with lower production and rewards in general Make GEAR alias MODS matter less, so "risking a ship in a duel isn't worth it" because it cost 15 mill. isn't a thing anymore

Seeing a lone spaniard sailing at you in the patrol zone is a bad omen. More of them cannot be far.

Lets ban cars because of the accidents they cause ?

this perhaps?

No, this thread is not about complaining about the RoE of the patrol zones. Instead, I had the following idea: Let players ingame vote for the next patrol zone area (the following day) and the ship rate allowed. E.g. Vote for a patrol zone, for example hispanola channel. Then vote for the allowed ship rate (1st - 7th rates) Benefit: more variety Con: dev time

When it takes 5 carro hits to take out a mast... Well, your chances are pretty low in achieving anything. Lol Rip surp

Oh wow this thread has gone somewhere. But after reading through all of it, it seems like its just always going back and forth with no notable result. A few months ago I was also against any sort of 100% safe zone, but time has changed my opinion. Smashing noobs at capitals will never get close to actual PvP (given that when I started the game I obviously was also a noob so I didnt see noob vs noob battles as a bad thing). Personally I dont get much joy from the chase itself, but more from the engagement and gunfire exchangement. Now I spend most of my time either in the nassau patrol zone or in and around free ports. The guys defending no safe zones like the chase, and declare themselves as hunters. Fine. But cant there be a small safe spot for players to fall back and get their stuff together in parallel? Probably not at 400 players online. More likely at a full server. But in order to get there, there is a way to go. And THIS (see pic below) certainly isnt that way.

Im praying they are not going for those annoying minigame adds à la war thunder (p51 chasing a bf109, move the mouse to "aim" and click to "shoot" - but when you do click, you get re directed to the site. Lol)

I like mobas and similar games. (War thunder, csgo, age of empires,...) Thus voted for the second option

You cant just calculate that this easily. Bouncing, turning and angling are big factors. While the trinc is pretty un agile and bounces close to nothing even when angled 45°, getting half your broadside to hit a xebec can be considered a good result. Xebec should be way more of a paper ship. Its thickness is way too high. Equally able captains, requin v trinc or herc v trinc, i think the trinc would lose most engagements (except if you count running away downwind a win)

A place to put your (special) ship requestes. e.g. "Looking for Surprise, Teak, White Oak, 5 slots, offering 100 pvp marks" --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Current Requests: Surprise, Teak, White Oak, 5 slots, 100 pvp marks, requested by @Liq. Agamemnon, Teak, White Oak, Very Fast, 5 Slots, min 100 pvp marks or 10 million gold, price can be discussed, requested by @Percival Merewether. Essex, Teak, White Oak, Heavy Rig or Very Fast, 5 slots, 100 pvp marks or 8 million gold, requested by @Palatinose.

@Hethwill the Harmless this can be closed / deleted. thank you

Recently there were a few threads about individual ship auctions, figured it would be better to have them all organized in one thread, to get a better and quicker overview. Listed by numbers. If you would like to add a ship to an auction, do so by the following format: Number ; Ship ; Specs ; Min. starting price or Reserve ; Accepted payment (gold, pvp mark (with gold ratio), ...) ; duration of the auction ; Screenshot If you would like to bid for a ship, do so by adding the number to your comment, e.g: 1 ; 100 pvp marks ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Good idea actually Vanilla ship without crew mods remains as fast as it was Then for each few % extra crew you lose a small percentage of speed Makes sense

Good sum up.

Ahh right I think i remember Got time for a rematch tonight? My surps are already collecting dust. Lol

Patrol zone and meet players that actually fight back Ok true. At the moment the only halfway enjoyable patrol zone is nassau. Its bad RoE is making them a nightmare, usually. Thats why they need fixing. But the idea of a zone where pvpers fight pvpers id good. What ship was i in? My memory is pretty Bad. And im always up for a rematch 😃

Or maybe "experiencing a mini lag in battle could be an indicator that someone has joined the battle. Press Tab to check."

Ok will do that later today Sorry @z4ys i tried to edit it and add another number but its not happening on my phone. Lol Will add it tonight in the club thread
