One issue I can see for big boats like that is storage. How are you gonna prevent people from stealing it, you gonna tell me a hearthling can carry that over his head and store it indoors?
Didn't they break it down into pieces like rafts? Mast, oars, and boat can all be carried. I mean, if you can carry a small boat with two dead bears, why not a large, empty boat?

Easy to steal yes, but considering it's a big boat, with 6 rowing thingies, maybe the minimum for moving it should 6 people :p

I'm thinking about restarting and am just wondering if any plans have been made so far for a server restart once hafen is live? So I can know how much time I should waste right now.

No, JLo have expressed desires to shut down the old haven servers a while after the Hafen servers have gone up.

I came across an interesting question.. Teleportation will be limited to Hearth Fire and milestone-like roads, right? So how would you get inside your own city without opening the gate? Is it possible? Or is there a milestone system that can only be used by your own villagers? This is under the assumption that crossroads are gone.

I guess no-lootable keys will be mandatory if you cant TP.
PS : did you read something about HF TP ? thougth there will be no TP at all beside roads.

Yes.

Ah, well, teleporting back to one's own hearth is not necessarily going to be removed.

Teleportation along formal roads is also possible. It's assumed that this means a mile-stone like system.

sigh.. what if u just limited crossroads to like 20 squares, then we can avoid this key shenanegans.
Early world exploit: Put your hearthfire inside a cave, then hold shift to position a claim right in front of a cave. After 8 hours the claim will be unbreakable. Since your hearthfire is inside the cave, you can still get back inside, and leave, but nobody will be able to enter, effectively making you unraidable for the first 3-7 days. Enjoy
