It would not be possible if there were no statistics, only thing left is to use your brain to estimate a value and check again in the next iteration. I would not have done this radical changes as admin did. Max 10% changes in the first iteration, then check again in the next one. If ship is not used in Port Battles, then decrease BR -10%. To me it would be hard to get in balanced numbers by doing this big changes, so I would stay in smaller iteration. Would be somehow easier to follow ships development instead of jumping from "Not Used" to "Most Popular" or the opposite. We don't know if this is going to even happen though. Doesn't have to be perfect the first time, but it is very good that they started the process finally.

Palatinose Posted August 30, 2018 Posted August 30, 2018 Another question. Have you adressed the stern of Diana? Being hit by ball the holes weren't shown yesterday (except for an exact rudder hit).

The new sailing profile of the Diana, for anyone who's interested, up against other downwind sailors: Thx bro.

Better guns (currently) + stern guns better sailing profil Trinc has more damage because more guns is better than higher caliber guns. I think its base speed is better too. 4 bow chasers is epic for hunters. I enjoy both ships.
Felix Victor Posted August 30, 2018 Posted August 30, 2018 If you care for the full list of patch 26 changes, check https://www.diffchecker.com/TvTMjcTe Data is used in my ship comparison (menu tools) at 3
Arvenski Posted August 30, 2018 Posted August 30, 2018 Just logged in to claim the Diana (first time I've logged in in a couple of months, I'm guessing) and man, the new open world UI and map look beautiful. Good job, devs. 5

Can post links atm, but hopefully someone other can Or the actual ship. The goal of the last 2 maintenance haul outs was to restore her to that configuration/appearance. 1
Aster Posted August 30, 2018 Posted August 30, 2018 In terms of leaks all ships do not get leaked the same take the victory vs the santi. The victory for some magical reason just takes so many leaks. Sitting still not moving (leaked), Going bow on at the enemy (leaked), hell it even gets leaks on the leeward side under water. While the santi is the only first rate I have never been able to leak shot. With standard ball I have never gotten more then 5-6 leaks even at the best leak moments (90 to the wind on the windward side and waiting for the wave). I think the ocean is right were it should be, it can take a fatal amount of leaks if you make a mistake but it does not take leaks all over/just no leaks at all. Anyway Making the victory not such a leak magnet would go a long way to making a useable first rate again. 2

If for example you would bring again meaningfull trading to the game, some ships are an easy pick to get perfect results. It shouldnt be like that. In open world, I guess the BR change will impact and improve the reinforcement that can be called in green areas.

Meanwhile, Sir Texas should not receive them because he is always demanding things (like ETAs). I agree but in other hand there is not much too test

But there's plenty of stuff to test, even in the old ships, OW mechanics, trade mechanics, new ships, cannon, everything. Just use your imagination... 2
Lovec1990 Posted August 31, 2018 Posted August 31, 2018 (edited) @Hethwill the Harmless if there was much too test they would do same as they did with Diana but perhaps they are waiting so that 15day Diana test period is over and then they could give us new connie to test, but still Why two Connies now in game Edited August 31, 2018 by Lovec1990
Hethwill, the Red Duke Posted August 31, 2018 Posted August 31, 2018 They are the devs. Who knows what stuff goes through their offices... C'mon man, just go with the flow. Test ships have been handed along the years to different testers, mods and not mods. So, take a good look at the picture I posted. Let it sink.
