She sank with 14 leaks after the Bellona pass, wish i remember his name was good aiming on his part. Believe what you want but know this - Not everything is about you. Actually never anything is about you. Back on topic, sorry guys.

Alias History
Hethwill, the Red Duke replied to NethrosDefectus's topic in Current Feature Improvement Suggestions
While I agree with the "hiding your past" especially during the Age of Sail motif I must point out that law covering what you say there is not how you say it. Inherent gameplay characteristics and explicit features are the baseline, and there's no change to gameplay nor anywhere does it state to us that old aliases would be erased. Stick to the point In truth Reputation is all, some change name for roleplay purposes, others just to troll but others yet simply to move away from being abused in the game by others. Master Forger does an amazing job finding the correct seals, the correct names and all the necessary items. It is up to the captain if he wants to talk about his past life or not. This being said I do firmly agree that impersonating should be dealt with severe measures - forced name change to something fitting - especially in a small gaming community. -
Correct. Too many captains out there delay for too long the hull repairs, beyond the point where there's no come back.

Maybe of various genres but I assure you there are plenty. Escape from Tarkov for example has everything into the same melting pot. Has quite nice questing but you have to survive harsh pvp and pve. No rewards for death. Just XP. But has a lot of rpg elements and gear and collectibles while keeping the combat pretty hardcore milsim ( to a point ). Game still under heavy development and early access is not exactly what release will be... oh wait, almost like NA.

Good. I'm glad then.

Nope she isn't. She needs work BUT she is a good option for the player that doesn't want to rely on economy or crafting. The major three problems: - 15.5kn at 135º - 15.4kn if full hold. You can guess the rest of the curve. Guess what makes this. - same thickness as a cruiser 32 gun frigate when she is a planked ribbed cage. Can upgrade her to heavy frigate grade and keep the speed up. - open deck and crew suffers nothing. Rageboard has never been easier. You sail her, test her, report all the issues and keep doing it with all ships. But she is a great ship. Love that the devs put a ship that actually sails much better full manual and that the auto skipper does not replace manual trimming. IMO all ships should be like that. But guess cherry picking posts is the best thing to do, especially the ones that fit your agenda, when I did post several times that the xebec should be classed as a 5th rate and have its survivability thickness/hp reviewed. But hey whatever man. During development we had several ships that were oddly over the top - Surprise, Trinc, Snow, Rattlesnake, Wasa... I wonder why we do not use the best Surprise outfit with the 12 pounders. Guess what, gameplay over realism won. All of them been revised during development, which is not over yet no matter how much you wish it isn't. Game is in Early Access and grants access to anyone that buys and wants to test. Fun is subjective. Find your own. Duel Tournaments have been hinted at by Admin so you will have your piece of heaven. Sad that Legends was put off, honest.

They do. Xebec has a massive issue on top of others including the rig type. Crew on the deck being the worst case, but hey, testing and reporting right ? Is a great ship to learn, love it for that. Full manual sail fun, forget the combat tbh. Hercules not my love type. Square rig.

Naval Action in a nutshell.

A group of 5 newcomers in shop ships that invade a mission can kill the player doing the mission. THAT is undeniable. Sorry that you do not believe it. This are all ganks that can be done with any shop ships - replace schooners with any shop frigate, 70k + cannons + repairs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4CfJCr8twXU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9OVJExcDYlw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GwIXQ0wFWpM And yep, opinions are usually personal based of experienced events. #antimetaleague The Xebec has issues and hopefully they get solved but it is a great ship for anyone wanting to simply ignore eco and logistics and go out and gank at hearts desire. Invade missions, kills fast, get out faster.

5 guys sailing shop ships can invade any OW battle, kill the player and get out. Stop believing everyone is going for specific pvp with pros or other dedicated pvpers. -
[Tips] One liners.

This is a Guide. Whatever Devs want to do with the one liners is up to them. Carry on. All liners added in the opening post. -

Hethwill, the Red Duke replied to HachiRoku's topic in Current Feature Improvement Suggestions
nvm then. You say the mast of small ships have issues... I must believe your word. Roger wilco. Sail safe. -
Plenty of games have this TIPS as one liners in the loading screens. Would be nice to see them in game also. Given it is just an idea we all can build into it, no ? And see where it leads. So let's do very concise one liners that can also be nice tips for newcomers and vets alike, no matter how basic they are. I will post a few examples: _____________________________________________________________________________________________ "You can hide all the chat windows, while sailing, by pressing the T key" --- "Reinforcement Zones allow to call AI support when attacked by enemies. Not when they invade your battles." --- "Reinforcement AI are support for the players. They are not replacements of the players." _______________________________________________________________________________________________ 'Trade ships can enter enemy ports' --- 'The wind will periodically change direction, in battle.' --- 'A battle stays open for 3 minutes if it is out of the reinforcement zone. Beware any player can join within this period. ' --- 'Expect sailing in a sailing game' --- Double tapping a rudder order ( A and D keys ) will hold it hard over until cancelled. ---

Please explain. -
The external monitor one is also DELL support suggestion as some Precision - Inspiron - XPS and other hybrid GPU models do have both options but brand GPU - nvidia / AMD - will work only with external devices and never as the in-built display.
