Any plans in the future, to make deliveries to port, to transit on OW… So us Pyrates can pick them off from time to time?

Exploration and Delivery missions are included to the Development plans prioritization pool, so according to the community wishes, some things will be done first, some - a bit later. You can vote there as well to share your thoughts about prioritization ;)

 

Also, as devs said in an interview:

Player escort function sign up will be developed some time in the future. It will work this way: when you will sign up for the escort fleet duty you will be invited to the battle when there is a player in need of support. At this stage (today) the escort is purely player driven. You need to sail near the trader to protect him/her if somebody decides to take his cargo.

Arvenski, developers have said that there are no plans to post any new WIP screenshots at this moment, I guess as soon as they decide to post any, we will be informed :)

 

Bart Smith, there is no info about it yet, I guess we also will be informed if there are any news about it

No exact data has been announced yet, you've heard a rumor :)

Is there a vague timing to when its likely to be? Like within a fortnight or a month or so?

Fluffy, as I said two post eairler, 

 

Developers didn't announce exact date yet but most likely it will be this month

:)

I already lost my bases, ships and gold, yet kept my rank since the 12/13 of this month

 

This usually means that you chose a server other than the main PvP server.  The PvE server shares the rank/XP and characters with the PvP server, but not the assets such as gold, ships, etc.

I would like to see in the game map  a compass so you could click on a port or in open sea and a compass would pop up so you could make bearing from there, plus a place to type a port name and you would go to that port on the map, it would make it easy to find a port that way.

 

Thank you Toggman

Hi developers,

 

Thanks for taking the time to read my question!

 

Can you look at this thread? http://forum.game-labs.net/index.php?/topic/8249-problem-with-25v25-port-battles/page-1

 

We players on Britain and Pirates have gotten big and organized, but struggle with 25v25 port battle mechanics. Both sides acknowledge a problem, but would be helpful to know developer plans, thoughts, etc. so we can give better and more appropriate feedback.

 

Best regards,

 

Capn John Dough.

When will exploration be added?

Admin's most recent reply about Exploration is :

If exploration happens (the key word is IF). You will not be walking on land - you will be sending expeditions or something similar.

"If", not when...

If I am correct from what I have heard, the game is moving to beta after the next wipe, will there be some new features announced to come with this move? as far as I am aware it sounds like we are getting a boat load of more ships but I'm unaware of any other additions (bad pun intended).

Posted (edited)

oh so its an "IF" well I was under the impression that was one of the 3 main aspects of the game when I bought it

Devs seem to face difficulties in designing an Exploration that follows that rule :

All parts of the game should work together otherwise they become a waste of resources.

Exploration must support conquest and crafting. Same can be said about fishing or flora and fauna exploration expeditions.

Besides, Exploration may be difficult to implement in a known and populated OW with ports all over the map : the Caribbean.

free towns i have a quick question and figure i'll post hear to see if i get a proper answer. looking at the latest poll i see people want 1 account = 1 character and neutrals ports gone. if that happens will the free town remain free or will they go too.

I wouldnt count on it.

 

There are things way higher up the priority list than that in regards to actual game mechanics.

Furthermore, what cities would Venice have historically in the carribean?

I'm not getting my hopes up but an expansion into a European map would likely bring more draw to the game if you ask me. It would be nice that with the extra players they would expand into having a bit more of north America and Europe. If you look at the future plans from two years ago they did say they would include more European nations. So assuming that these plans are still coming forward I would hope they include it after the last super wipe. Also I have asked similar questions to this which remain unanswered, if it were the case that they wont be including I would say that they would likely just say no we aren't putting this in.

There was discussion a while back about various 'minor nations' being introduced. I guess this might still happen when the game is nearer to completion, but as of now, nothing I've read has suggested that this is on the priority list right now. Besides, in this stage of development, it seems like there are far more important things that need to be added in than more flags for you to sail under, wouldn't you say?

Free Towns are designed to provide a Nation a foothold from which to Outpost and launch an eventual counter attack, even if they've lost every last port on the map other than their Capital.  I don't believe you'll see Free Ports disappear any time soon.
