Enemy player rework

[Complete-Disaster]

Hi

i have been trying do pvp 1v1 but due to the mark Enemy Player most players turning tails and runnning away.(come on its pvp server). it would be cool if you could add ether camuflage perk that could mask a player to look like NPC or add a spy glass that identify's players within a certain distance.

im not intrested going to a patrol zone alone where the chance's are quite big of getting ganked. i would like have the element of suprise in the open world.

you mean Ruse de guerre like it was done in movie Master and Commander?

 

it was done in real life, but captains never fired on enemy ship before rising their true flag. It would be nice idea, but it would rise fear further so players will be afraid of ships marked as ally.

yeah something like that, it sure does would be scary sailing around knowing that the sail you click on horizon could be players but how it works now you ether get pvp in the patrol zone or you catch afk sailors.
the moment they se enemy player on horizon they change course to closest town or log off upwind making it impossible to catch them.
 

so if your prussian it would say Prussian with fleet of 2. it would still make you on guard but not as paranoid as detecting a player and turning tail.

ofc if you would se 6 bellonas closing in right on your direction it wouldt be hard to know that your about to get ganked.

it will not work it will just make them more paranoid plus more likely too stop playing

it would make traders paranoid, there are plenty of ppl looking for pvp but are just afraid of getting ganked. i hade a 4th rate running away from me in a 6th rate. im in the dissadvantage, i just want to shot something pew pew pew. might make me quit the game like alot of others before. if your afraid of PVP there is a server called PVE.

true but do not cry if alot of players escape to PvE server

You can get ganked anywhere, not just in the PZ.  The Solo PVP zone is great for 1v1

i didn't say you couldn't get ganked anywhere, i just find it annoying that players turn tails to closest safe harbour because it says enemy player as soon as they spot you on the horizon.

so if i sail a constitution along the coast line and i spot a ship that might be a player, i dont want it running to closest safe harbour and sit there for hours because it clicked on me and said enemy player.

It is also possible that players are not in the mood to pvp. I think you should ask for the return of NA legend. Traders and newbies are already easy targets, if people can hide as IA then OW will be empty, and you might have the return of NA legend

if you can't distinguish players from npc then it certainly would be much harder to be clubbing to death the seals. it could even do trading a bit more safer and acutally enforce the hunters attack AI traders aswell in the confusion.
