Bigvalco Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 Title pretty much sums it up, I think it's probably an easy addition that has been overlooked. 4
Drunkwolf Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 maybe within your nation and thats it. infact i would go as far as to say you shouldnt even see the name of other captains from other nations or pirates, only the flag is needed. 3
Edmund Pullings Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 (edited) No need, this isn't ArcheAge. In fact I wish it didnt tell you Nation or player name. You should have to sail close enough to see the nations colors or take the chance. Edited January 21, 2016 by Edmund Pullings 10
SKurj. Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 if they are only visible through the spyglass sure! Add that option and I might vote. 2
Deepgift Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 if they are only visible through the spyglass sure! Add that option and I might vote. I think the "I like turtles" helps with that suggestion. it serves as an "other idea" type of thing. But i think it would be good idea to try.
DazednConfused Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 Although i voted for the turtles (obviously - i mean turtles are awesome) The reason clan tags need to be visible is for clan wars - so others are less affected by the drama 1
Jord Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 I'd like to see clan tags. Maybe it's a little "gamey" but I think it's a useful addition. Ideally I'd rather there be guild/clan emblems you could design and they'd be in game on a flag on your ship. 2
Inkompetent Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 No need, this isn't ArcheAge. In fact I wish it didnt tell you Nation or player name. You should have to sail close enough to see the nations colors or take the chance. For this we need to actually be able to see anything in the OW though, i.e. having a functioning telescope. 2
Bigvalco Posted January 24, 2016 Author Posted January 24, 2016 I see a lot of people wanting a different way of identifying clan affiliation, but everyone needs to realize that this is one of the least important details of the game. It is much easier to simply add clan tags for the time being until there is a better solution to identifying other ships. The poll tells the story though, most people would like a way to identify with their clan when on the open world, I would love to hear from the Admin if this is an easy addition to the game. 2
Blackbeard787 Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 No this ain't Call of Duty, battle field, or arma 3 games like that
Mansen Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 No this ain't Call of Duty, battle field, or arma 3 games like that No - But trade companies did have logos and other such branding to indicate who owned them. And who to steer clear of... 1
312_JS Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 maybe within your nation and thats it. infact i would go as far as to say you shouldnt even see the name of other captains from other nations or pirates, only the flag is needed. Agree. It would be great to remove enemy names from OW. I'd love not knowing whether I'm attacking an AI or a Player.
Blackbeard787 Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 No - But trade companies did have logos and other such branding to indicate who owned them. And who to steer clear of... logo is different and maybe only shows in the window when you click on the enemy ship
Puppet Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 +1 in favor of clan tags showing in open world. If you saw some ship in open seas back then you'd probably know which nation, fleet, and prob task force she belonged to or whatever organizational structure that nation had. 1
Taranis Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 I like the idea - even better (IMHO), would be clan flags 1
Finwolf Posted January 30, 2016 Posted January 30, 2016 I dont want any floating tags in OW. But in battle, I'd like to see 2 things.. 1. Either Clan "logo" or personalized logo on sails. 2. Either Clan "logo" or personalized Flag on ship (for example on top of mast, NOT REPLACING the national flag). Either way... personally I'm leaning to having clan-sails and personal flag... I mean it would look great when you sail with your clan having all the same sails... and then your individual banner/flag flying from your main mast to distinquish and identify you... - Finuc - 1
Dexit2k Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 Push! a Clan Flag Instead of part of the Name. Maybe with a possiblity to record Clan Falgs with Notes or even Share or trade it.
DantalionNL Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 Would love to see a flag for clan(fleet) mates.. similar to the one when you group up now.
Hethwill, the Red Duke Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 Nation is above clan. Nation tag is enough.
Bigvalco Posted February 8, 2016 Author Posted February 8, 2016 Nation is above clan. Nation tag is enough. Except we have clan tags inside of battles? What's the real problem with having it displayed the same way when people click on you in the open world?
Hethwill, the Red Duke Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 Indeed we do have the tags inside the battles and it is a great sight to see organized fleets arrayed for battle or even small flotillas engaging wherever they meet. As we all first and foremost chose a nation to play for I guess the clan is simply a "regional" thing. Not opposed to it just stated opinion as any other player. What is the real problem of not having them displayed in the OW ? If anything in neither benefits nor prejudices the gameplay ( except maybe for some feuds that may escalate quickly ). Quite trivial choice.
Bigvalco Posted February 11, 2016 Author Posted February 11, 2016 What is the real problem of not having them displayed in the OW ? If anything in neither benefits nor prejudices the gameplay ( except maybe for some feuds that may escalate quickly ). Quite trivial choice. For Pirates it really is a necessity, we need to be able to identify friendly pirates vs enemy pirates. Also it helps if a National clan wants to "ally" itself with a clan from another faction, it allows them to distinguish friend from enemy. 1
PIerrick de Badas Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 tag were present on ships with flags on it. So it's normal to be able to see in wich clan is someone you see. As spyglass in OW is off, having the name of the clan is as normal as seeing name of the captain
