Alex Connor Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 Holy hell this is a gorgeous ship... Game-Labs artists going from strength to strength Yeah, incredible work on the stern.Only 24 guns per battery, though. That's pretty weak. Well, this is a ship built in 1715... Back then, a large and well armed 3rd rate, but ship size and weight armament moved on. By the Napoleonic era Ingermanland might be more of a large 4th rate than a 3rd rate SoL, but still quite a powerful ship, more than a match for anything short of a super-frigate and would be a tough opponent even for the Constitution.
maturin Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 Well, this is a ship built in 1715... Back then, a large and well armed 3rd rate, but ship size and weight armament moved on.

Yet oddly enough they already had 100-gun ships back then. Anyways, it appears that she was re-armed with 30-pound guns in 1716. So perhaps her lower deck armament should be 32-pdrs in-game. I'd rather see that than overcompensate by making this ship some sort of speed demon. 3
slik Posted September 25, 2015 Author Posted September 25, 2015 Work in progress. Testing stern lights. 16
DazednConfused Posted October 17, 2015 Posted October 17, 2015 (edited) I remember from another thread that the ships soon to come in were almost finished. Is there any chance of a sneak peak at them now? Edited October 17, 2015 by Mirones
Mirones Posted October 17, 2015 Posted October 17, 2015 Most pictures has been posted before here in the topic
Mirones Posted October 17, 2015 Posted October 17, 2015 going to clean up the topic to make WiP post easier to find
BungeeLemming Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 heated shot incoming? (just kidding I dont know anything) But it looks like that if you have good wind you can back the sails (or just get them in) and shoot the fort with impunity.
Tomms123 Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 So is this the 64 guns fort you spoke about yesterday ?
TommyShelby Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 So is this the 64 guns fort you spoke about yesterday ? The Fort on the picture has room for 28 Cannon's by the looks of it. (6+6+8+8)
akd Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 hopefully a 64-gun type would be a much larger star fort.
Booyaah Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 (edited) if this thing hits 4x as much as one of those towers, these forts are gonna be hella scary even for a Santi maybe Now if you can add a contiguous landmass, like a bay, throw in a few towers at the front of the bay's peninsula, maybe add a city backdrop in the background (like in that Tortuga concept art screen), then we'll have ourselves a nice realistic looking port battles. Maybe for deep water port you add in a few snows and for shallow water a few lynxes. Oh yeah, and add a light house that lights up at night, that would be the icing on the cake. I want me some night time storm port battles! Edited November 27, 2015 by Booyaah 2
D. Federico de Gravina y N Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 The forts going to be realistic? I mean, the forts of Cartagena de Indias going to be the same like the reals? 1
Mirones Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 at the beginning gerneric ones only later one maybe
akd Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 I'd be pretty thrilled with coastlines / elevations generated procedurally from main map, and generic forts in real, or at least realistic, locations. 2
Tomms123 Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 The Fort on the picture has room for 28 Cannon's by the looks of it. (6+6+8+8) Because we spoke about like 3-4 different kinds of forts. The biggest will house 64 guns (by information which Admin said). It will be really cool to see the whole game "finished" (something never gets finished in a game you just want to add more to it but sometime you got to say "well we cant do much more with the resources we got").
Primus Palus Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 Some work in progress stuff. Where can I find this without the logo? So I can put it on my desktop. 1
Ghroznak Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 What is wrong with the logo? It looks great! I guess you can always edit it in photoshop or GIMP or just add something else there...
Jack Feathersword Posted February 5, 2016 Posted February 5, 2016 I would love to see that as the backdrop for when you are in ports.
Ghroznak Posted February 5, 2016 Posted February 5, 2016 I would love to see that as the backdrop for when you are in ports. Great idea, even if it's just temporary. The blue screen is a bit.... blue...
Lord Roberts Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 Would be great but if it acts like the current towers no thanks, as they are stupid OP and fire like snipers
Arvenski Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 Would be great but if it acts like the current towers no thanks, as they are stupid OP and fire like snipers Uh, what? What would be "great"?
Lord Roberts Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 Uh, what? What would be "great"? You don't see the new idea for towers?
