Sry for my bad english.

 

i am stream your game now 1 week and i must say its still agreat game (have it since 2016 and had a break )  yeah some change are bad in my eyes but the biggest problem are the ai ships. i play on the pve server and i have sometimes 2 hours where i am sailing and find nothing what fits me. the most time i see something are 1st rate ships with fleet its pure luck if i see a 3th  rate alone or something other we have 100-150 players in pve when i go to the patrol i am sometimes ther for 4 hours only to get my 20k exp. in the beginning you hade many ai ships you found always a target but now its empty. i play a s pirate atm and yes we have the windward channle near us as a "trader route" nut what give it us when we have no ships? idk how many ai are active but what i know its too less for this big map when i should count i see in 10 hours with luck 50 ships and 10 or less  from them i can attack with my consti pls change it fnly.

greetings your HellDevil

the bots are now spread around the map based on regions
For example Hispaniola island has 1-3rd rates only that sail around the island and to nearby ports
West cuba and puerto rico is 4th rates 

if you want to hunt with minimal time investment - you need to find the hunting spot to your taste. Usually it is the area where lots of ports are clustered. For example virgin islands usually have high concentration of 5th rates because lots of ports are near by each other. 

Here is the map of bot routes snapshot for the central caribbean.
   

Take a very fast ship and sail around noticing where many fleets are and move to that location.

I've sailed this morning from about 30 mins b4 maintenance and than again after along the coast  from LaMona to Port Paix on PvE server. According to that map i was on a SOL highway

But all I saw during that more than 1 hr was 4 or 5 ai targets. 

Your highways are simply empty on PvE server. My guess is, it's a respawn issue or AI just hasn't been switched on.

i know this map and when i look on it than should be in windward channel "lots" of enemy but that isnt the case idk why maybe because they get early killed and doesnt respawn or the respawn time is to high or what ever. but that is a death sentence for every pve server and i rly like this game

Bonjour Capitaines,

Beaucoup de commentaires assez dure pour ce jeu. Je ne pense pas que cela soit mérité.

Si vous avez choisi le PVE, ok. Parties sympas, contre des bots, en solo ou non, et tout cela sans interférence avec le PVE bien sûr. C est un choix.

Si vous choisissez le PVP: c est en toute connaissance de cause. Il ne faut pas venir pleurer pour les hommes ou autres mésaventure. Si je sors un rang 1 en étant seul, je sais ce que je risque. Sinon, je suis en groupe, ou en zone de contrôle. 

Avec le sextant, je pense que ce sera plus difficile de faire (voir post sur le patch 29 dans le forum).

Pour le RvR, il faut spécialiser les ports. Pour éviter le monopole d'une spécialisation, pourquoi n'est-il pas expert de cette spécialité qui se déplacerait chaque semaine de port en port

1) soit je possède le port capitale et donc j'ai accès à sa spécialité tout le temps

2) soit l'expert passe dans mon port et j'ai accès à cette spécialité pendant une semaine

3) soit je ne sais pas où est l'expert, et j'ai pas d'accès à la spécialité.

Comment savoir où est l'expert? Et bien soit surveiller son port, soit envisager la possibilité de trouver des informations dans les bouteilles, ou des courriers (interception de navires postaux).

Cordialement, La Fayette
