    Solved Get details from the governor - Tales of a sea hawk

    But would the flushdeck-frigate even survive a serious beating from the fortress? And unfortunately, I really have to request a fixed wind direction to the sea. Because I'm certain that otherwise, the quest becomes impossible, even with a fast ship. With favourible wind, I think that even a...

    Mod Release Build 14 GAMMA [Last Update: 31st December 2021]

    Alrighty then, given that you can start in different time periods with their own nations, towns and ships, a question: Does starting out in an older period actually increase the difficulty? In the old EIDOS-game "Unter schwarzer Flagge" (Look it up on YouTube - it's only in 2D, but is, I...

    Solved Get details from the governor - Tales of a sea hawk

    Excuse me if I hijack this thread, but I have a question about it which doesn't necessarily has to be a bug, but more of a "git gud"-problem: How exactly are you supposed to board the ship, when: a) the Fortress is shredding your ship into pieces, even when it's a 3rd-rate-ship of the line? I...

    Hi!

    It really looks like that we'll never see a game like PotC again. It was possible once to develop a game like this, but nowadays, not so much apparently. How much content does PotC actually have in vanilla-state without mods?

    Hi!

    Unfortunately, it's pretty much silent at the moment, with several titles either stuck in Early Access (forever), or trying to get funds on Kickstarter. So I don't know if you are only looking for finished ones - in which case you have to look for older games like Tempest or Salt, though they...

    Mod Release Build 14 GAMMA [Last Update: 31st December 2021]

    So I guess, if I take a "Freeplay"-character, I can conquer the Carribean to my heart's content? Also, is it intended that everyone hates you after a successful capture?

    Mod Release Build 14 GAMMA [Last Update: 31st December 2021]

    Hm, are you sure that you don't have to "learn" the ability to capture cities? I know that I raided a Spanish town once, with the governor telling me to never come back and then all other nations hated me, including those who are hostile to Spain.

    Sea of Thieves

    That's exactly why I don't play MP-only-PvP-titles. ;) Regarding Overwatch, I can only make assumptions for its popularity: It's a pure and dedicated PvP-title, that offers quick matches in different game modes, maps and with different heroes to chose from and also has a competitive scene...

    Mod Release Build 14 GAMMA [Last Update: 31st December 2021]

    Just a quick question: The Black Pearl-storyline, is it also available on "Free play"-characters or is it Nathaniel Hawk-exclusive? Also, can you capture cities like in CoAS, only that you have to "learn" it before?

    Sea of Thieves

    Of course, in that case, the game isn't for me. Which is why I'm glad to not having paid for it. Nonetheless, I find it very disappointing to see that four (five?) years of development only brings us a barebones-game... with awesome water.

    Sea of Thieves

    Salt would be nearly perfect if it had actual sailing-physics and hostile encounters on sea, so that the cannons would actually be useful instead of shooting static targets on islands. As it is now, it's a relaxing exploring-game. Which isn't bad of course, I mean, I have put 64 hours into it...

    Historical pirates vs. their portrayal in media

    Isn't it the case that those reports about Blackbeard's cruelty were actually greatly exagerrated and that he wasn't that of a bad guy? He simply built up that reputation to make his "job" easier. Except of shooting his first mate, of course and that rumour that he married a young girl, only to...

    Historical pirates vs. their portrayal in media

    Ahoy! After playing Sea of Thieves for some time and following the forums, it seems that most of those players who just kill and sink everything they see for no reason, appear to be honestly believing that that was what historical pirates truly did: murdering everyone and sinking every ship...

    Sea of Thieves

    After being able to play some odd four or five hours or so entirely soloing, I think I'll put my opinion in here. I have downloaded the game with the Gamepass-trial to test it out first and started on Wednesday. Mind you though that I'm only playing alone as I have no friends to play it with...

    Historical naval ranks in other languages

    Ahoy! After searching the internet for some time and not finding satisfying, even contradicting results, I resort to seeking your help. :) I'm searching for the Russian translation of the First Mate. I have found the following: -Perwy Mat -Starschi pomoschtschnik komandira korablja (After...

    WIP Naval Action - Open world multiplayer RPG

    It's in alpha since five years with barely any progress (No wonder with only 2 developers), I'm afraid that they will end development due to running out of money or finally giving up as they just can't keep the workload up anymore.

    WIP Naval Action - Open world multiplayer RPG

    Because PvE is basically PvP without PvP. And thus executed poorly with less content. -Poland, Russia and Prussia don't have ports and thus can't use the Admirality (Making the combat marks useless, apart from selling them). -No port battles, even not against the AI. -Can't fight cooperatively...

    WIP Naval Action - Open world multiplayer RPG

    As far as I've heard, the DLC-ships mess the PvP-balance up really good to the point of pay 2 win, but as I'm solely playing PvE, they don't concern me. I'm more angry about the Admirality-DLC, which lets you have more slots for ships, buildings and such, making life for ship builders much...
