Hi all,

it is I, again…

A small thing abt. dark nights and dungeons. Could we have an item: miners hat(hat with candle holder)? If you have that and candles, you can equip the hat in the armour slot and get some lighting. It should also give some limited armour protection.

Torches would require double wield I think and that seems not easy to…[Read more]

Hi Jeffrey,

how abt. unlocking fight locations? So that PC can escape if too outclassed.
Is that as complicated as adding locators to all fight locations?

BTW, if/when doing new quests perhaps it would be not too much hassle to consider some of the suggestions made?

And if a smugglers questline is ever to be made, I think it should be…[Read more]

Jeffrey,

you recommend a quick reload gun. That implies auto reload with sword drawn AFAIU. Am I correct?
I do not use that anyway being focused on realism.

Mr. Knight,

if you have problems in spite of your skill and experience, it only proves that the game design is flawed and resorts to buffing up the enemies as the main way(easy for the devs) way to provide a “challenge”. I mean original devs as I suspect you have not touched these aspects of gameplay yet.

So why not have a toggle in “mod…[Read more]

Mr. Knight,

re 7: you peace out and get LoM with the relevant faction. Dialogue is explicitly abt. buying a LoM.

I would like a dialogue line: I want to make my peace with …….. . You get neutral relations and a right to fly their flag, but NO LoM.

Well,

more immersion destroying inconsistencies to rectify.

Hi Maltacus,

I agree with you here. I already wrote that it should be easier to run from a fight, questline or not. And come back with your minions.

Generally there must be less suicidal NPCs. Lone bandits attacking a shore party, sloops dicing it out with forts? How realistic is that? It would also increase challenge if you had less…[Read more]

Hi all,

GoF 2.7 but could be persistent:

– as a pirate I join a battle pirate vs. limey, both are marked as hostile to me and start pursuing me…

Could the pirate be gentleman of luck? Meaning a pirate who attacks everyone, even other pirates if I am not mistaken.

Mr Knight,

– corsair diff, lvl 6, reaction 9. Medium sword with 77 min. dam, Austrian snubnose min. dam 75. Have not been able to defeat Tiepolos minions in interior even once in something like 30 tries. Came very close once. Had only basic defence melèe skill.
As a captain with heroic crew and officers ready to lay down their lives for me any…[Read more]

Jeffrey,

it is not like I demand anything. Just providing feedback. I am quite happy with yours reading my ramblings. It is the dev(s) who must prioritize their limited free time allocation.

Hi all,

started playing 2.8.2 and will comment as my playthrough develops. Playing as Speirdyke, corsair diff., no autoload, reduced exp. gain by half. No buying of items except for basic nav enhancing thingies, medical supplies and bullets.

1. Is it possible to open ship interface for stored ships? By klicking on them in the log book,…[Read more]

Hi all,

it is I, again:

– fighting is bungled by the original devs from the start. In confined spaces enemies spawn on you, there is no time to use any tactics except spawning health potions which does not help anyway because you are stunned by enemy hits. And changing position is very difficult because collision mesh locks you in one…[Read more]

Yeah, these horrible sails drive me up the wall.

Hi all,

I can not refrain from some remarks which I think apply generally to the game. If some will be in the coming update I apologize.
To make things clear, I am a diehard immersionist and realism nerd. Also a dedicated single small ship player(corsair difficulty) though I sometimes test larger ships. Anyway:

1. There is too much easy money in…[Read more]

Mr. Knight,

wonderful news!

Rgds, Oldtimer

Dear devs,

will the upcoming update be save compatible?

THX for your attn.,

Hi all,

Re quests, I think that in addition to national and pirate questlines we should also have one for smugglers. I like smuggling…

Rgds, Oldtimer

@Vincent

Lots of good ideas from you(and not only) here but I disagree on not being able to have a ship that is both superfast and supermanouverable. You can, think of torpedo boats and similar.
The trade off here should be sensitivity to damage. Glass-jawed punchers is what we would get.

Rgds, Oldtimer

Righty,

I understood captains perks correctly then. Abt. officer perks perhaps I was not clear:

– Gunner has God of Death, no Musket volley but bosun has Musket volley, only. Will the ship benefit from it?

THX for your attn., Oldtimer
