THE Boat trip

[delfer8]

People do things like this ALL THE TIME and only for their own amusement and no one bats an eye. Someone does it to prove a point and everyone loses their minds.

Talk for u, there are lots of people affected by random scrubs killing ppl for fun or loot and they complain, or not, maybe for fear.

Thanks for not stealing from /murdering me

While the shitty naval combat mechanics are not fun, the video certainly was. Hope it will somehow make Jorbo think about the issue.

Did not like how you shown everyone my crappy stats and gear! very embarrassing!

love how there's been no statement from the devs other than "lol". guess there's your answer on how this is gonna be

By the way, even though this has been a hot and controversial subject of discussion the past two days, the devs have yet to respond to it. Are you still contemplating how to respond to this, are we suddenly getting a big nerf/mechanic change next patch, or is this put on the backlog as a 'look at fixing someday' item? People are seriously worried about this subject and I don't really feel safe near water (particularly for longer trips) with the attention being drawn to this making it more likely other people will try this 'convenient trick'. Some kind of statement, or even just an acknowledgment that this issue is being considered, would be nice.

Jorb said he is looking at it in PMs.

I expect we'll get an answer in the form of next update's patch notes. (Even if it's not fixed immediately, it should be in the 'In the Pipe' section.)

Just wow... this whole situation is wrong on so many levels. I play this game from w3 and I have seen much, but this is absolute "no go".

JLO - fix or shut down. No point in playing with this mechanic.

You crazy Finn, you actually did it. I am impress, RIP for reals to coracle guy now. You died so we all could have boats, you are now HafenJeezus. Pras all involved.

doesn't that just turn all boats into portable safe palis?

maybe it should be like this?

you should have to hop into someone's ship to beat them

and if they have all 10 places filled then I'm sorry but you can't fulfill your desire

Safe palis = meh
Portable safe palis = bad
