The Grind

[KuroNyra]

The PVP you can instantly get is lame. Most people want to take part in the conquest game, politics, and on a older server that will always have huge grind attached to it, until they fix the port battle system. Once they remove SOLs from deep water ports, the game will be better.

 

 

And what would you use SOL's for, unless your talking about restricting the to regional capitals.

Actually, it's the idea.

 

Apparently in one or two patch, Port Battle will receive a limitation.

 

 

Shallow port will have only shallow ships.

Deep Town not regional will be limited to Frigate up to the constitution.

egional will have the Ship of the Line.

 

 

So basicly, Ship of the Line will still be the Big Ones but reserved for the Regional port battle.

I do not think that there will be a lot of players that will enjoy a game in which, just to deliver some goods from production sites to factories, you have to waste two hours doing almost nothing else that looking and the screen with no xp gain (while you could have going here an there with yor combat ship gaining a crapton of gold and xp). Fun factor has to be taken into account too and there is a limit of boredom also for manufacturers and traders, beyond which they stop playing.

I agree, if teleports of ships are removed, they will need to be replaced with some sort of automatic system for moving the ships through the OW without mandatory player interaction.

I have been a big fan of an "autopilot" which will sail the ship between two ports using an NPC crew. Something like that would be a perfect solution.

Teleport of player characters (without ships) would be kept between outposts to facilitate moving around the map and further alleviate "boring" travel times.

It could be cool, no? And it would put these ships in the OW, where they could be interacted with in a way that is impossible right now, when everything is getting teleported all over the place.

Its a shame you cant hire players to "attach " your ship to one of theirs like a taxi service then pay them wht they want and they deliver your ship to whatever port you want.

Would have to be safeguards put in place like if your ship is attacked while in this mode all cargo and ship is automatically ported back to original port or something or if they take you to wrong port a timer goes off and same thing happens etc.

That could help the guys who hate OW and open up a new servcie for peolle to make money. ..kinda like a merchant marine fleet lol
