    IIRC the treasure events are being reworked. That's where the first L'Ocean BPs came from, right ? The majority of players couldn't even participate due to the hours it took place.

    While the appeal of the idea seems nice ...the OW would soon become a wasteland. Think about it.

    You are correct in three things: - would - should - could Alas, it didn't. Plus the prizes offered the community volunteers are in place, some having been delivered already. The ones presented by Game Labs are of their responsibility alone. I am glad we even got the time to put this together. I expect the next one to be a 100x better for I intend to participate in a team.

    There was plenty of time for anyone to come up with a team. Why didn't you bring a team ? Interest must be come from the players. Volunteer organizers are not door-to-door salesmen nor tele-marketing departments. from the list, 5 teams dropped out for time constraints or no communication at all. so 37 teams of 4 players signed up

    Pretty much like the treasure hunts, those that could be there got their rewards. A lot of players couldn't participate in those as well due to various reasons the biggest being honesty with oneself - cannot commit with the time and schedules therefore have to forfeit any rewards.

    Very sci-fi. I find her exotic and somewhat enticing. Would slim her a bit though.

    I'm not expecting any single handout, this kind of things happen during gold version let alone production alphas Actually I took this opportunity to check on other early development projects i've invested cash into.

    Furls sails and stops.

    Yes you do. Ultimate General is indeed a breeze of fresh air into wargaming delivered in such a great compact format. A great game.

    Absurd comment And nothing to do with the context in what I wrote it. A small nation with high experienced PvP groups can be very effective. They won't conquer the map for sure but then they won't overextend themselves. Forget the "collection color dots" era. It is over.

    H&G is a interesting case. It was going to be the next ww2ol in a more accessible form and modern visuals. But the investors that injected funds thought it wise to be reworked another way. They have one of the greatest multi layer wargame ideas and it gets rotten by pay to play. I do not touch it since forever and have a huge amount of war bonds from before their "acquisition" by another investor. It is another game I funded which came out, for me, not what I expected. On the other hand War of Right is coming up very very nice and it is also a niche game but they never say it otherwise.

    Time scale of 2 minutes in ow equal pretty much to 15 minutes in battle instance. So it is not 2 minutes but the distance that can be traveled inside a battle instance at best speed during 15 minutes ( roughly ) of combat.
  13. Hethwill, the Red Duke
    Exactly. But it is not a one way thing you see

    It will be about efficiency, timing and all out harassment at all points. Combat will be ever present and the sense of urgency meaning, effectively, a full region rich in resources lost and with it a lot of infrastructure.

    This is no world of age of sail. All ships can be used for purpose design cruises. Don't let anyone convince you otherwise. And yes a Exceptional Cutter is a magnificent investment at any stage.

    Given most positive - to buy - posts add some sort of explanation I would expect the same from a - no buy.

    Trade wars. Making sure those War Supplies never reach their intended destination

    MWO promised meta-wargame. They didn't deliver. Entire groups stopping playing pronto. Arenas are nice and are the meat of a combat game but they need a purpose, the tendrils and bone, the wargame part.
  22. Hethwill, the Red Duke
    Ah ! now i connect the dots. I remember some previous post about the missions being moved closer to the contested areas. So this now makes sense. This is great ! Gives purpose to even PvE and a full epic battle event sense.

    The game is sailing good. It is grand already and NO ONE will stop me from EXPECTING and imagining even greater adventures... not even the devs

    I would be extremely happy if the follow guides were done User Interface Guides - in Port - in OW Thank you in advance for this.

    I agree with you fox. Games are a leisure activity, therefore FUN. Naval Action is not boring at all. People are boring.
