I assumed sextent perk was automatic like fleet. Seems i was wrong. But anyway - i like that I could choose other things now and still have a fleet "perk" just in case i find something to snatch ;).

Is awarded automatically to new players as a perk with perk points. Not the same, yes. Fleet for 1 ship is not a perk anymore.
Sir Texas Sir Posted March 1, 2019 Posted March 1, 2019 9 hours ago, Teutonic said: same...for fleet? Every one gets fleet 1 for free. So the two fleets in the perks section are for if you want 2 or 3 fleet ships. The Sextent perk has to be set for it to work. Than when you look at the map you will see a little white boat where you are on the map.

angriff Posted March 1, 2019 Posted March 1, 2019 Can somebody explain rare woods clan missions? Does this mean that rare woods will now only be available to special groups and their friends?
staun Posted March 1, 2019 Posted March 1, 2019 (edited) HOTFIX 1st March Changes United States renamed as USS United States tjeck Added rare woods to the admiralty on the Peace Server Tjeck Slightly rebalanced prices for rare woods for admiralty and clan delivery missions. Tjeck Prices for ship notes in admiralty changed to Combat Medals Finaly only PvP matters. Dbl are now worthless. Love it. Rewards in solo patrol and PVP Hunt rebalanced Great to see that damage dosen't give Combart medals. Only PvP will reward it, and only if you get a kill/take part in a kill. Not sure how the duel zone rewards, but guess in time we will know. Labor hours costs of ships changed (drastically reduced for ships below 4th rates, slightly reduced for other vessels) more ships = more pvp) Not sure it will. Small ship is useless with your new damage model, bigger ship maybe. But thats mostly will benefit the elite and they dont lose to many ships. Labor hours storage greatly increased Think the impact on game will be very little. Labor contract blueprint added to Academy Tjeck but with dbl basic been worthless, I guess ppl just use them to by labor hours. Labor contract price increased in the Admiralty Maybe even bigger increas. Nothing ells to use all the dbl for. Love it @admin It is clearly in the spirit of the last patch. But I fear to few (sheeps) will go out in the OW, just stay in the Capitolzone. Think we might have to remove it ore OW PvP might suffer because ppl stay in the green zone. Plz remove it. Now where, If I am right patrolezone have lost the benefit of damage giving combat medals, think most ppl just wont go there anymore. I think it is in clear line of what devs want the game to be. Thats what we should base oure feedback on. For me personally it is just another nail in the coffin. But still love the game. So a bit play on my herc. But I will for sure be one of those players that only is an online number, but bring nothing to the game. But understand that devs want a game that reward those that go for it and punish those that don't. It is a well known motivation strategy. Edited March 1, 2019 by staun

This is the problem with this game. Instead of developing a wide swath enjoyable game at different levels it has been made into a clan based clique game. I have not once participated in a port battle since my return. I have been excluded from three port battles where I placed hard earned cash in buildings. I quit before because port battles were the PZ zone style battle that guaranteed a lost ship if you are over matched. There was no disengagement to save your expensive ship. Now the game has included an even higher level of clique small group player versus any player can enjoy. This will destroy the game for a large swath of players and keep it a small niche player group game. I spent 1100 hours in trade mission to obtain Rear Admiral. They are now talking of resetting that. I have been in maybe 5 or 6 PVP type battles having lost 2 ships since my return. Now to build a major ship or to buy one with medals I no longer get the luxury of earning doubloons to obtain them but am being forced into PVP battles which I hate as time wasters. If all the devs want is a small room battle game like world or warship why don't they just do that instead. PS. I have supported this game with purchases of the game and four DLCs. I think it is time my type of play is allowed. You cannot be a single player if you want to experience the entire game. You have to be in a special group to get this experience. (I am in a clan that is huge (20+) but does not participate in port battles or does not understand how to organize them across 8 different time zones of members. just to end that comback) Edited March 1, 2019 by angriff

You know, this is not like searching for NPCs. I would say we need to be able to accept more than 10 missions at a time to help manage stuff like this. 2
angriff Posted March 1, 2019 Posted March 1, 2019 (edited) 37 minutes ago, Wraith said: I don’t want to sound snide, but RvR and clan based and solo PvP are sort of the engine that drives the OW War server along. If you don’t enjoy or want to participate in those things then it sounds like the Peace server might be a better fit? While I can appreciate your feelings that wish for lower players on the PVP side I think you should reconsider. The PVP server offers a risk that keeps interest. The cat an mouse game to find routes that can be elusive for trade and delivery is in itself the real life naval game. The small instances and player concentrators are designed to push players into being victims of stronger PVP players. If all the game wants to be is a small room instance fighting game like World or Warship they could have developed it that way but I doubt you would play it so you have the extra joy of catching traders. Having said that there is no point in playing a game against my computer PVE online. Edited March 1, 2019 by angriff

Name one game that allows PvE serversd to get the same rewards you get from PvP? If you want special content you need to play that content. Also there was never a promise of a PvE server from day one, they only did it to make a few players happy. Instead of demanding easy mode and content you don't earn, how about trying to get the devs to get you more content and make the game more playerable on you server so you can get more players to come to it.

Let them flip ports against AI. Every three-four months the map gets reset. I hear guys complain about not being able to do missions. Than flip a port for you clan....than I hear the complaint about solo guys. Believe me not every port would be flipped cause you have ot pay for them too. They need more content, but they shouldn't just expect all the content from PvP server as it was never promised to them until after release they would even work on PvE server.

Archaos Posted March 1, 2019 Posted March 1, 2019 (edited) On 2/28/2019 at 10:50 AM, admin said: Prices for ship notes in admiralty changed to Combat Medals Personally I think this is a backward step for the game. Although I can see why people who mainly do PvP want something unique, I feel that the introduction of combat medals has just taken us back to the PvP mark days. I thought the whole point of the introduction of Reals and Doubloons was to streamline the currency, yet we now end up with the same amount of different currencies that we had previously, just with different names. The change of prices ship note to combat medals has literally made doubloons worthless, which has made doing the pax and letter delivery missions worthless. Most if the expensive items that you can buy with doubloons are one off items such as Navy Loodsman or Carpenter Combat Reports, that once you have learnt it you do not need to buy again. The other issue currently with combat medals is that as far as I can see they are only available from the 1v1 combat zones and thus are easily open to being exploited. All I need to do to get them is arrange with a friend from another nation, to both buy a cheap admiralty ship of the same class and sail to the 1v1 zone without being intercepted and have a battle that no one else can interfere with. You can actually still fight properly as it does not matter who wins, because you can share the combat medals between you, just keep rinsing and repeating. If people want 1v1 matches without outside interference then you may as well just bring back the duel rooms. edit: You state in one of your posts that the idea around some of the recent changes is to make it easier for people to obtain ships as this should lead to more PvP, yet with changing Admiralty ships purchase to combat marks only, you exclude a huge portion playerbase from access to those easy ships.

Guest Posted March 1, 2019 Posted March 1, 2019 @admin we need more ship tows! the game is too time consuming people who have jobs and families do not have enough time for the game. we need action directly. After I lost my ship, for example, in the Nassau patrol, I do not have a tow anymore. what am I doing?! I log out please also makes the 1v1 circle smaller
