yes
victory is good at broad reach and closed haul
ocean and santi is good downwind 

Does the Sanit still sail fast backwards. 

Good changes.  Mixing up the advantages and disadvantages of ships was needed.  Wasa's are so boring.  Now get rid of the Wasa for Marks stuff.  Best ships should be crafted.

I see the wasa still remains the PB king it is now.  Everything changes and nothing changes.

Lets just kill off any hope of getting new players.

‘only players up to a certain rank’

I think that covers it.

make changes that get players back, all these mechanics honestly don't matter if there is no one to play the game

Could also keep players this way. It's equally important.

Upset? They simply stop playing.

@admin are ship hp and armor thickness get balanced too so there maybe get a reason to use ships that never get used now in pb and open world?

Aka ingermandland, pavel, aga, santisima.

If it's too difficult - give up.

Deja vu
I've just been in this place before
Higher on the street
And I know it's my time to go
Calling you, and the search is a mystery
Standing on my feet
It's so hard when I try to be me, woah
Deja vu

I prefer the John Fogerty one.

Is it normal for vic to out turn p frig?  Somethings off with new sailing mechanics

Radius ? Time ? What is the keel length ratio relation of both sips ? How much wind can each ship carry ratio to weight ?

I know how you feel but some questions must be asked.

Who cares dude, a 1st rate shouldnt turn faster than a hunting frigate through the wind (if thats really the case).

Not disagreeing. Asking. And I care  I really do. I like physix in games.

my bad, forgot that 5th rates are not updated yet...

[Slim McSauce]

disregard the haters devs, you've seriously been killing it the past few patches. Besides the short Wasa fiasco, the game has only improved. Keep it up you glorious bastards

Ofcourse they get outturned. 5th rates still work with the old system while lineships work with the new one.

Once 5th rates and below use the same its like before but different

not sure if that will happen. Admin mentioned that on smaller ships the influrence of the rudder was more important than sails.

The question is do we have realistic rudders?

Well I'm not expert on that matter, hell I didn't even know that jib sails exist before playing NA

No Im suggesting that changes like this (that was made today) keep existing players.

Same. Funny how much games push us to learn and research. Love history games.

Was always a airplane man, but... wings are sails  and rudders are rudders.

Thanks for making the bucentaure so useless compared to other downwindsailers like locean or santi. Constant speed in battle 45° upwind is 2kn, locean is twice as fast.

The turnrates are too fast to balance the ships right would be my guess overall.
