  1. Multi player ( multi means several by the way, not one solo ) magic word ! Wow... someone actually used it !
  2. Dear Santa, I've been a good corsair this year. Raided so much trade, made enemy nations trade routes unsafe and killed many ships of the line even before they were born, entire indiaman fleets full of ready to assemble materials. I did ragequit only once and had said sorry to my companions, but that was after the floating fridges 200 combat mark ships invaded the Caribbean. I won't expect big gifts for I am a humble captain and I must say thanks for bringing my companions from all over the world to the same server as myself. I only ask two things: - return to proper trade and trade wars - 2 minutes battle entry / 2 minutes sail distance immediate close. Thank you Santa.
  3. Given US hours, I guess you'll see more at US hours not at EU time.
  4. Maybe because most players simply broke down a 4 dura ship ? Felt dirty without being 5...
  5. Holy.... Weren't the zones introduced exactly to give a growing/playing ground for newcomers and solo players !? They truly removed the solo hunter though... aren't those solo player as well !?
  6. Well spoken. Everyone has their own style. The collection of all makes up the world. But same rules should apply equally, especially when they share the same Caribbean world, meaning the player choices are not mechanics hence shouldn't be ruled differently. Had a few "contractors" along the time that all they did was trading and crafting. All good, they like the "truck simulator" scene. Best out of it was that they would keep all the resources I raided in exchange for ready ships ( they would keep the overflow ). Good symbiotic play, but they didn't have "pve only flag" to protect them from pvp in a common server.
  7. I like the experience the game delivers I don't like it to be softcore but I don't rant about it. I suggest and hope it works. When it doesn't, tough luck. No need to rant so much about changes.
  8. When I am not selected I will rage and post all kind of nonsense on how things are ********* ( read in Sarcasm with extremely heavy Ironic accent )
  9. You think this is new idea ? Was done before when everyone took the black but wasn't to "screw". Was rather for fun given everything was going to be lost. See... there's a difference between wanting to play the game as is ( we aren't developers or we would be doing our own games, no? ) or simply want to "cry wolf!" and spread dissent... bad bad wolfie. Snappy salute.
  10. Hmmm... unsure what to think of it. Given a special collectible pirate refit is 150...
  11. Rewards to: - Battle Group creator ( admiral nelson ! ) - any battle group captain that sinks/assists enemy ship in PB ( attrition cost by ensuring loss, must damage the enemy, prove their worth ) Further... I suggest the rewards to be awarded only after a combination of two things: - port held for 7 days - achieve accumulated 100k of tax during those 7 days Governments would never support ( and didn't ) non productive colonies. This suppresses/ensures two things: - invade ports just for the sake of points and then leave them abandoned ( daily support costs are meaningless ) - conquered ports ARE used and at the very least are supply bases of naval essentials ( like repairs ) and not only colour dots.
  12. That's my guess with the new nations. ( funny how Scotland-Irish colony in Dariena lasted more than the "gift" prussian colony )
  13. On one occasion everyone could capture all ships. Second offensive was asymmetric due to head count. Pirates were overflowing with people ( everyone could change to pirates by attacking a npc of the same nation ). So many pirates abandoned the black and returned to nations or ... sigh... stopped playing. In any case, personally, was the most challenging and epic times to be under the black.
  14. Rare ?!... as in...Ships belonged to the Admiralty not the Captain.... Navy Board assigned Admirals/Captains ships for the missions. Each captain in game is his/her own Admiralty/Navy Board. Only way to make them rare is by - economic path ( irl how much time and millions of puzzle pieces it takes to build one ? ) or achievements. Take your pick.
  15. Twice did the united nations reduce the black scourge back to Mortimer, in the past. Of course they can.
  16. Battle Royale in Arma3 still beats it eyes closed. Pure. Awesome.
  17. Darn down-under folk and their Xmas at the beach... Stay snappy and have a good one.
