you can play alone just fine , but its fun with friends for sure 🙂
Excited for the update soon! Crosswind looks amazing definally something ive been looking for
You can solo it for sure - its all about getting the gear level to match the mobs and learning how the mobs attack and what weapons work best against them.
yes i understand that, before Once human never played multi but now, that i have a group of new friends , difficult to go solo 🙂
Plus looking online at soul mask there is a lot of solo people thst have shared their settings
Played once human well to much for the first fee weeks not been back on it for a while
yeah once you start doing group play its very hard to go back to being solo, but I still enjoy some solitude time here and there - peaceful 🙂
Ywah i get that, i used to play drstiny with my dad and a few friends years ago do miss it sometimes but i do like a good solo game lol
yes crosswind will be the goty 26 for pirates 🙂
Yeah looks amazing, the ship building and base building looks amazing and hoping that the plundering and maybe even making rum at base and selling it, things like that would be amazing prober pirate feel!
ugg , the wait..
Great news at the start of next month possibly, can handle that 1/2 way there already 😁
question how many game developers are working on crosswind?
50+ at the moment
the + being other developers for task they may need to pull in special assistance for- be it art, design, coding, technical, etc.
not sure at the moment what the actual number is as they deep in developement but we will be hearing some kind of an announcement by the end of the month, so keep an eye on #│announcements 🙂
In another life I would have been a landscape designer for games. That just looks like such a fun career
@lone pewter never too late to start - I have an 86 year old friend that decided to get into unreal engine and is already a year later doing landscape and a pretty good job of it. Start now 😉
that's great new's, looking forward to it
Try Once Human. It's $Free.99
I'm 29 years old, and I just realized I want to get into 3D graphics. But I haven't decided on a direction yet. Incidentally, it was Crosswind that inspired me to do so.
@queen shale awesome - check your dm's 😉
Glad Crosswind is what gave you the inspiration 🙂
Thank you very much, this is what I need))) I have already created several simple things inspired by the game
I give you a very hearty thumbs up - looks awesome - fantastic starting point 😄
Good mornin
gooddday
Day 1,417 of longing and yearning for crosswind
here is the Bucket of Waiting, Capitan, may it keep you safe during this journey of patience
Hope in a year's time (or sooner 👀 ), i'm known as the bucket guy. My coffers will be filled to the brim with Crosswind buckets 😍
🪣
Any news on release or how development is going. Is it still going ahead?
my people 🥹🥹🥹
LMAO just noticed my name you sly-sea-dog! 🤣 🤣 🤣
Hey who’s a guy gotta beg to get a beta invite? 🙂
Idk if beta is live yet
Looking forward to end of the month.
EA is expected to be somewhere in 2026, best to keep an eye on #│announcements for any updates, in this message specifically there is an link to an steam page that tells you a lot more #│announcements message
Wouldn’t ever get the impression folks like cats 👀😁
I really believe in the game and in your work, dear developers. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to try the game.
I hope it's released soon.
EA is expected to be somewhere in 2026, best to keep an eye on #│announcements for any updates, in this message specifically there is an link to an steam page that tells you a lot more #│announcements message
i am pretty sure though that ill be hitting 5.000 hours on valheim before this game fully releases
and no 5.000 isn't an typo there i do really think ill hit 5.000 hours on valheim before the full release of crosswinds😅
If you enjoy Valheim give Enshrouded a try . Might give you a bit more till hopefully Beta opens for Crosswind.
i actually do own enshrouded and got about 60 hours into it, last time that i played was an year or so ago, main reason i got so many hours into valheim is since i am part of an community server since late Jan 2022
might give enshrouded another try
Wow tons have changed in last year
I have about 2000 in Val and 1000 in Enshrouded. Looking forward to Crosswind following that pattern 😁
those are my current hours in valheim😅
This is weird. Automod keeps blocking me and I don't know why.
I was mentioning three elements in books and games that really peaks my interest: Dragons, Pirates and Fantasy settings.
This game fits one of the three and that's what initially drew me in. Looks like Automod is not going crazy now LOL
Are you using any weird characters like a '-' followed by a '#'?
We block things like that on the Enshrouded Discord server.
any news on a new playtest?
thanks
Gm
Any Bucket updates
Buh-ket
Ah bucket.
It has a hole in it 😮
actually started enschrouded again, gotta start somewhere with an small cabin
Hello friends , what's news ? 
Framps
hi guys when the game comeout?
^^^
thanksss
Work in progress have no issues with that.
Gm
I also cant wait for the next test i had domu fun with the game but its ment to be played with friends is there a option to at jest get 1 other Kay for a friend or for a givawey ?
keep an eye out on the #│announcements channel, there is alot more info to be found in this link: https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/3041230/view/511840624511551150?l=english seems like EA is expected to be in 2026
Will be an announcement soon so just keep an eye on the #│announcements
we will!? I wanna be an announcement too!
I had high hopes for this game, still do but the removal of PVP was a huge let down..
@grand light stop teasing us so much
not removed, just paused
it could still make its way into dedicated servers
I hope you’re right
OH MY GODNESS 😱
it's just an honest heads-up for the new trailer matey 🙂
No way crosswind comeback in the middle of my ap seminar class
Heck yes, new teaser while we patiently wait! 
no more trailers. give me another open beta!
I missed the last one and am EXTREMELY sad. My body is ready and the Rum is all gone
Time to fake acute diarrhea 
oof
this game have an idea f2p or b2p?
But... why is rum gone?
Urgh...might be bad news for you matey, we already have one more in production. But that's a topic for a different day 🙂
Such a tease....
So excited to see what's news are coming
hallo mr yar, thank you for finally bringing the game of my dreams to life :P
darn. I knew I should have stocked up on rum. I am super sad I missed this when you popped the beta. I am coming from the crappy excuse of a pirate game Atlas. It had so much potential but then wild card happened. Same with sea of theives. But EVERY gameplay I have seen from this game just looks peak
because I be a drunken sailor mate
The only reason I will accept
Ah, don't raise your expectations for now...just some content
you know
like [redacted] and [redacted], new [redacted] you can [redacted], also some [redacted] to spice things up
Me when the news notification popped up
Heart attack by Crosswind notification
do we know if we can sail on ships together with our friends?
you can , but for now proper ship coop gameplay is not there
But you can technically
you can't man the stations etc though
that's a frequent request so we will be looking into it for sure
allright see ya tomorrow mateys ❤️
Gotta get them friends to swab the deck
ok thats still peak
if my friend could take control of the cannons while I sail, then I'll be happy :P
God we can only hope for some peak bucket content and gameplay
Did this game do steam fest??
No, I suspect because they don't have a playable demo
What else are friends for if not friendly fire of some sort
Smh, they had a whole closed play test too.
Yeah but that's different from a demo
the play test was on a server, but now that the game is different a demo would need to run on the client's pc?
Yeah and it does take time and money to chanmge that infastructure so it's likely just that they didn't have the chance to make a demo worth showing off
That is fair. Good prioritization has shown to be key in a successful launch (looking at you Bethesda)
Yeah and I trust they're making it the best they possibly can, espically if they're aiming for early acsess next year
I am sure they are, but it is really nice that they are at least somewhat transparent about their decisions
The last we know of PvP is that its just shelved for now. The Developers would prefer to make the game to the state they want to before reintroducing it into a completed product
This game is no longer an MMO right?
correct
i think that is for the best in my opinion
how does anbriella keep posting while the game is not accessible?
Probably clips and older footage
Can`t wait for this game, I will be a VOC pirate for sure ! 😄
fair ill give her that content while most cant even think off playing
i cant wait till the next (possible) playtest is gonna be and round my hours up to 100
New update is awesome and all but when can we actually try the game
That's my question, it's been so long lol
its been a long time sindce i touched this server what update?
btw is there any knowledge off the cost off the gamesale?
not yet but if I had to guess $30 Usd maybe?
aah ok
again just a guess
ye ik there has been no info since august the 14
I’m just lounging at those who are getting banned left and right for cheating on battlefield 6 compare call of duty where they alow people to cheat to win this is why cod sucks today

Me watching the rounds from my m-60 go everywhere but where the optics reticle is completely missing the person thats standing 20 ft away
still no news on EA or anything huh?
when is the next playtest?
🥳
If only we knew
Thanks @fast orchid
Np
so this game was meant to be free but now it's going to be a pay to play early access?
Yes, it is. They felt they could do more with a buy to play than free to play.
I think I can speak for many when I say that paying a single amount to play and get a great experience is far superior than playing for free and having;
Mandatory Battlepasses
Pay to Win
Micro-transactions
etc
I'd rather pay $20-$40 for a great game than pay nothing and not enjoy it
1️⃣ 6️⃣ 🇭
so it's pay to play forever or just through early access
if it's p2p permanently then i support that
if it's just through early access then i'll just wait through however many years it takes like every other game
If you look at the #│announcements channel you can see it will answer all your questions.
just watched some videos the game is fun but looks laggy its UE5?
Laggy? lol
Ahoy!
Yes it's UE5.
And early alpha on top of that. So a lot of performance increase to be expected.
Was a little but with what was shown and the fact its not even ea thats fine
teleportation and gps while you harvest berries and chunk wood to survive, get serious
When is release date
the faq in steam discussions is still not updated, just saying :P
Here is my $
2️⃣ 🇭
are they going to announce the game is back to MMO? 🤔
Join your host Jane Douglas on October 23rd for the Galaxies Autumn showcase. Streaming live on Twitch and right here on YouTube at 8PM UK / 9PM CEST / 3PM Eastern / 12PM Pacific.
This edition of Galaxies is chock full of surprises including some breathtaking world premieres, major announcements and new gameplay trailers for fifty games! You w...
tuned in and ready!
that looked crazy lol
Beautiful!
i got stupid ads most of the darn video
yessssssssssssssss great vid
not even close how it was in the Beta, so many additions already, the houses are so different and so much furniture
which makes me angry cause i missed most of it
they will probably post the video soon
wonderful work Dev team, and so nice to see so early into the stream 😄
Buildings look sooo cool.
Hope video will be public so i can fully see it later
don't worry , Crosswind will probably release video again in his youtube account
New build pieces are gonna be great
yeah they looked very good
Ahoy Seaweaver
good tralier team crosswind. And the release date? I'm excited to play it.
the building looked so cleeeeeean too
@molten flame what i know 2026
I do hope this trailer will be on YT for us to see again?
Im sure it will be ^
The building in the alpha was great so Yee, little refinement and it's looking to be a masterpiece
I really hate ads on twitch for this reason lol
you can already watch the vod on twitch to see it
just rewatched it myself
agreeeeeeeeeed
I am SO looking forward to it. Leaps and bounds ahead of the closed Alpha
Tortuga being a hub AND combat zone looks so nice
and to think its still a year until release, they're gonna make so much more lol
wait the YT stream can be backtracked so just go to the YT instead of Twitch
we need a another playtest 😋
Imagine my shock seeing this stuff after playing the very first closed alpha where even building was still jank
so is the friggate still the biggist ship ?
Who knows, could be the same but they could be working on a bigger one
wait what
game looks so sick!
i need a playtest
I cant wait to stream Crosswind again. I really loved doing the trivia questions questions when i had a key to giveaway cause i learned new things.

Just sucks im not big enough to be a CC now LOL
BUT when my new place gets done I have a lovely pirate flag I am going to hang in my game room
Wishlist now on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3041230/
Take a look at the new weapons, ships, building sets, enemies and locations currently in development. Crosswind is a pirate survival adventure to be released on Steam.
Lezz go
HALBERD SPOTTED, BEST MELEE WEAPON IN HUMAN HISTORY
Galaxies? Whas day
I am sharing this video with friends who didnt get access
its so peak
Goes well with the plate armor, right ?:)
Now that looks amazing!
if it costs more than 40 euros il wait till its on special
Very much so yes
Hello
I do love a good halberding
i would like to see more makingoff shocase work 🔥
⚔️ 
Release date?
Early Access will be sometime in 2026, not quite sure just yet
But no release date???
Not yet
yeah but all that was - was a new teaser video...
new alpha/beta date ?
nope
@runic anchor would be perfect for chrimas 😋
i now thats why i am ask
Ok new teaser but for what?? Can we play... A test. Like i already knew the game was being made... Im a little salty we hot hyped up for a 20 second video
It's 59 seconds, matey, and we are sharing the progress of working on Crosswind. You'd rather have us silent? 🏴☠️
No im not mad more confused
Looking forward to this game.
Either way im still looking forward to it.
awww, RIP to my clowns 🙁
Lets not clown on anyone fellas. We welcome all discourse
The trailer looks absolutely MAGNIFICIENT! And I see more ships then before so my curioisity is now PEAKED! Cannot want to help with the testing again and sharing the hype.
THE TRAILER LOOKS SOO GOOD I NEED TO PLAY THIS NEOWWW

Great job on the trailer team! And what an exciting journey you've embarked on!
Oh dont get me wrong it looked fire. But now i want to play even more now.
Same here. I enjoyed playing the alpha playtest but am sad I cant for now lol
Goty material
I waited for my access to the alpha. Ive been watching this game for soooo long. I was salty watching others play lol
hey hey :)
I know how you feel, all I can say to help is, as someone who's been here since the beginning, their updates are always worth it.
I do hope there will be a way for me to get keys to give away on stream when the time comes again. I was enjoying watching @fast orchid before I had access.
Im holding you personally accountable then if i dont get access to the next playtest lol.
I gave my spare keys to Suma there and a few others but I can definitely change up what happens if they do another free closed test
I do appreciate it. I cannot wait to dive more into the game.
If they go straight into demo / EA though then I got no obligations lol
We actively want people to play and experience the great fun we had.
I'm a little salty too - I DID love the movie but -- there was no updating news. Even just little. IT's already on Steam for wish list... so why are we doing more videos?
Loving the new updated trailer! Big things coming!
To see what they cooking while we wait
Sadly you can't show half baked stuff in trailers, only things that are like 95% done. And we have a lot in the works
we want so bad that game to be released
Extremely well!
Okay a side question
I've addeed #│announcements to follow for my discord server for all my pirate crews but it doesn't actually update or post things when you guys post stuff
Do you guy have that as an option?
Unfortunatly I have the reverse issue. I added Crosswind to update to my personal server now I cant unlink it
Heavy metal armour spotted. ❤️
for now I'm copying posts and putting it in my crosswinds channel I just wasnt sure if the #new channel you had was set to be allowed to be followed and post annoucements
Realistic looking ships without rams ❤️
Think it is a bug, have it also.
ok so I"m not the only one
Trailer looks amazing, Some info im trying to find is can we have multiple people operate same ship ?
BEHOLD. Presented w/o any context 
Work in progress cellar leaking
Im excited
Think what I saw earlier in chat was that folks could be on same ship now but at this point they couldn’t do anything. I could be wrong.
Pretty much. What was said is that people can be on the same ship but cant share stations like helm and cannons for example.
are this forts ?
Maybe now that they are doing more of a Co-op style instead of the MMO style. Maybe that will be something they implement?
Cause if you are playing with friends - your friend isn't going to want to just stand on the ship while you sail and are completely in control. They are going to want to shoot cannons or DO something.
Fish
Or where is a proper palce to ask these questions
Wait so pvp is completely gone from the game?
so no pvp and no mmo?
No pvp? Im surprised tbh
No one said no pvp
Damn i love the new trailer
💯 let the devs cook 🔥🔥
Oooooo the map pic is intriguing, Bambino, ty for sharing 😄
I see many buckets in my future across those isles
My only solace is that they are saying 2026 release date
A harder way to wishlist? Sail in a single person ship to the office, challenge them to a speed run against hands where they can use dev powers and have the prize be that it gets added to your wishlist.
That'd probably make it challenging
So with this new trailer we didn't get any news when can we expect this game 😑
we can probably expect it some time in 2026, until then i'm just excited to see progress
Say the release windows are the same then lol
Omg I want this game to be out now hehe, does anyone know any secret info on a possible release date where I'm going to loose alot of time at my pc hehe
Tell me when the next stress test is!
Do we know how much we will be able to interact with other players?
ty King
the news say they are focusing on co-op PVE, similar to Valheim and other such games. I suppose you will be able to fight together.
please can we have an open playtest 🙏
i need a playtest again!! or Early Acess! D:
Don't we all?
We'll just have to be patient. I sure hope for early access early 2026. 🙂
Does the new brig have chasers ?? (Bow cannons)
Is it true that if I wanted, I could host my own server for the game for a small community of players?
The reason I ask is, I think this game could be an incredible playground/stage for roleplay for those looking for a pirate world experience in the vein of RedM (Red Dead Redemption online roleplay servers) where players could literally build some little towns, develop trade, create stories together, have a few crews at war, etc
yes, dedicated server hosting will be possible.
the Brig looks frikkin awesome :P
I see new boats I haven't seen before and I'm excited
Dedicated servers will definitely have a higher player cap than the base 4, right?
god i hope otherwise wats the point right
If they have atleast 32 player servers this game could be what everyone hoped Atlas would be
Also that build system. I wanna clarify... Thats alot like Enshrouded isnt it?
how did you get the alpha herald
I'd say 32 will be the minimum if it's like most self hosted games on steam. I'm just hoping for an easy to use gui system for server setup.
there isn't an alpha right now
32 minimum for sure.
yknow THE BADGE?!!
ah
It was given to those of us part of the last content creators program before they changed the requirements
aah the content creators. why not all the testers ?
It was a sympathy gift for them because after making it in and streaming for x amount of hours spreading the word of the game the cc role was taken away from them of no fault of their own
aah
Yee
I love the profile pic btw lol , ( ex fuel hauler)
whoops ment for atherias
I think (and I cannot stress enough that this is my opinion and not fact) That the reason it's like that is because it was easier for them to change the name of the old cc role and give the new CC's a different role
yea i have the game like on 5 consoles/and accounts
that was for atherias , the fuel truck nursing the cars lol
haha why you ping me then?
32 years hauling fuel and dealing with ahole people at gas stations , it tickles me..o i guess when i went to hit the arrow chat moved and got you on the butt instead?
we got what , like 5 months left?
probably at most for early acces
ugg
whens the last time they had you mods test something?
I cannot say
ah right
We get put under NDA for stuff like that
yeah , forgot
so if you have the playtest can you play when they start testing again?
Should be, that's what they said
i've heard if you were in the last one you should be in the next one
That's what I heard too
i want to get it to 200 hours when the next playtest is on
i got like 150 hours in the last one i think , managed to get all the content done and build a pretty epic lighthouse
ye i was just at the last boss but couldnt get online cuz i wasnt home😭
last test was good fun
welp , just took delivery yesterday of my rc A-10 , looks like i'm honna get alot of painting and building on it this winter till this comes out lol
do you guys know if the brig has chasers?
chasers?
(bow cannons)
ye but like frigates canons should come in culverins long guns and sometimes mortars
we'll have to see i guess , i mean brigs could have bows to i suppose , i mean , not like there's gonna be pvp so bow cannons on any ship would be pointless , i tried grapeshot alot in the alpha and was able to literally sink ships on accident
maybe to thether sails or break masts bcuz thats what they were mostley used for
well yeah , that was my goal , to slow them down and get rid of crew lol
you wont belive this..my neighbor is so annal about his yard..it's friggin 32 degrees out and he's mowing, the grass has been dormant for like a month lol
32 degrees celsius or farenheight?
fair 32 degr F is 0 C so 0C+ 0C = 64F
no, 8-9 c
i was in the uk for a month this spring, when it was 8-9 C , it was like 30ish here at home
ye but yknow there is a difference btween heat in the wrld its like 9 degerrs celsius here and thats abt 48 in F
o yeah , the whole time i was there it was really kind of mild , i barely needed a sweatshirt from like 9-10am till the sun went down , friggin loved it
well , down around liverpool anyway , up around london was a diff story lol , that got cold
atm its warmer here than it was in the midday it was 4 degr in midd (abt 41F)
we had our first snow lastnight , just a dusting , it's gone now, thats why i can't believe hes mowing lol
SNOW!!?? we havent had that for years here
i mean , i like my yard to look good but dam not that much
o , i live in northern iowa , im only 1 1/2 hours south of minneapolis , we see -30's ,sometimes if we get an arctic blast it'll hit -40's
the last time i could go outside my house and see snow is abt 7 years ago
i like it , i'm from ft lauderdale originally , i dont miss the heat at all
it sucks for rc airplanes hobby but meh
we have alot of heat and cold here in the netherlands hottest this year was 35 C (95F) and coldest -10C (14F)
52.1326° N, 5.2913° E
looks to be about the same as iowa
i live in a exact spot with 0 snow i live 30 mins away from the sea and 50 minutes away from belgium
ah , behind mountains to block the wind?
hah mountains good one we dont have those
really , thats wild you dont get much snow
last time that i saw snow was in the mountains of austria like a year ago
last winter i think we had a total of like 18 feet , it would snow then melt , then a week later drop like another 8-10 inchs then melt
jaysus thats wild actualy
then by jan it starts to stack up
yea our landbotom freezes each winter but no snow
like 7 yrs ago it went into blizzard conditions and snowed for 3 days , i was stuck at a farm co-op 15 miles from my house for like 6 days will the roads got cleared in my semi truck lol
but to be fair its the coldest october in 4 years
i think we got a total of 3 feet that time all in one go , um yeah usually for us if we see snow before halloween winter is gonna suck , so we got dusted lastnight so.. lol
haha yea what day is it for you btw?
friday 1 pm
haha friday 8 pm
only 1 time zone between you and liverpool
ye ik i have family in england
but ima go bye
cya
Hello, do you have plans for new player tests?
No current plans for another playtest that we're aware of. I recommend keeping an eye on #│announcements for info as it releases
Yo any chance u know if multiple people can operate same ship trying to fnd that info but I am unable to and last time i asked ppl just glanced over it
It has been said a few times previously but the rush of chat has certainly covered it.
Right now there isnt the capacity for multiple people to operate the same ship like in Sea of Thieves. But you can be on a friends ship and vice versa while it sails around, only one person can helm it thought.
Fair thanks, tho can everyone shoot from it if not just their muskets ?
I cant say for certain that it will be added but its definitly something that's been brought up by the devs in the past. So keep an eye out for info as it comes out
Of course. If youre on the deck you can use your weapons with no issue. This was possible during the closed alpha and I dont imagine it would change in any subsequent versions
Ah just not cannons a bit of a shame hope that gets added
Who can help me access the game, I'm a content creator, and this game is the kind of entertainment I upload on my channel.
Currently no one has access to it rn
You’ll have to wait until the next playtest begins
Ooook Thanks
How scared would you be if I said
"Boo! You missed a playtest invite"
Just asking.
^Yes we've been having a super secret playtest and didnt tell anyone 🤫
I have time waiting for her and I never get the notification. 😕
But is it for a limited time?
So far all the shanties I have heard (on your YouTube Channel) are male are you planning to add shanties that include female voices ? Reason being 1. You have female characters in game 2. Not all pirates were male (Example: Mary Read (1685 – 28 April 1721), Ching Shih (also known as Zheng Yi Sao) who commanded history's largest pirate fleet in the South China Sea during the early 19th century. After her husband's death, she amassed and led an armada of over 1,200 ships with a crew of more than 70,000 pirates).
Interesting tidbit there
Guys im willing to give my daughter to the person who is able to get me a review code for crosswind
I'm gonna say don't offer children to strangers on the Internet in exchange for review keys, kinda bad parenting
Now wait a minute Seaweaver. Crosswind is set in the 1700’s, meaning child labour laws don’t exist yet.
Meaning we can put them to work at our bases collecting Timber or something for free

Ok but crew is family, and we don't trade away family, espically not the ones who share the bond of blood
Just "kinda"
well yeah, Just, sorta
🤏 only this much?
sheesh i get lectured for my devotion 🙁
I need to find a new game to hold my interest till this one opens 😮
This is what I've been doing. I've been playing alot of Salt 2 - that's been really fun
and if you like village managing games - that new mouse one is out in 2 weeks. SUPER cute.
Just joined, is there anyway to pay for beta access? few hundred days on ark so im good at reporting bugs.
Not yet. Early Access is planned for sometime 2026 but we dont have a specific date just yet.
We should have like, a suggestions channel
even if the devs never take a single one, it's a nice way to see community sentiment
For survival games: Valheim just got a combat update, Grounded 2 is gonna get a major update soon™
For pirate games: The Legends of Pirates Online is a remake of an old PoTC mmo that got a major update a month ago
Thanks for reply, bummer
Hi do you guys know if ther will be another playtest ? i want to test if my laptop can run the game properly . RTX 4060 laptop, ryzen 9 8445HS (8 cores 16 threads) and 32GB DDR5
how brave are you?
Honestly I think you’ll be fine. No guarantees until you can play for real though
dang it well guess i will be the fella , hit me with it and i guess i will try it then let you know how smoothly it goes
👀
ALPHA PLAYERS!!!
how good is ship customization? is it just colours, sails, or none at all?
im sure this has been asked a million times but is it true the game will not have dedicated server support where you can have like 10-15-20-30 etc players?
allegedly dedicated servers, up to 60 players
If that actually happens i will definately buy the game, if its like 4 players co-op style id cry myself to sleep lol, guess we shall see then
i know valheim fits 11, and enshrouded 16, and they're very similar games
Hi hello closed alpha player here. There wasn’t any ship customisation during the last playtest however in subsequent trailers and teasers it was shown that ships had different sails. So probably has some ship customisation in later versions but we havnt seen anything dedicated just yet. Keep an eye on #│announcements for more info as it comes out!
Hey everyone! Was checking out new Pirate games (came from SOT) and came across this game. 🙂
if theres a 1080 ti in there, then I'm pretty sure my 3060 ti is gonna be just fine 🥲
The real question is, is 8gb Vram enough
Morning everyone, have a great day to all! ❤️
Ahoy Pirates!
Is any chance to get the game somehow? Or everyone waiting for the release?
Acheter RV There Yet?
This was meant for Google? 
yes
Game releasing yet?
Nope
How's the game's progession? Is it liner akin to valheim, where biomes are meant to be progressed through one after the other, or are all biomes used from the start?
More linear like valheim iirc
ok
technically you can skipp a few of the early biomes in valheim and run straight for the 5th boss in leather armor and with just an bow, though i dont recommend it xD
though you would still need atleast the first boss to make your first pick-axe there
Do we have an any-percentage speed runner among us? 😄 haha!
Apparently lmao
Tbf is similar here, you can wonder into later areas, it's just hard XD
Take My Money!!
seems we have a while to wait 🙁
true, true!
Imma b hop backwards into a corner of a specific wall and be on island 7 in no time Capitan!
Yeah just make sure you have enough DRAM to compensate. 16 is on the low end but 32 is the new medium for pretty much all games nowadays
I hope 128GB RAM will be enough 🤣
I have enough ram. The problem is the gpu Vram tho 🥲
Just a daily anguished cry for the release or a playtest 😩
On a side note: the trailer y’all dropped looks fantastic! I’m more excited than ever to play. This really seems like the pirate game that any fan of the genre has been waiting for.
i'm slightly afraid of the enshrouded style modular building system
Hopefully prefabs are a thing/become a thing. That would make it more accessible
there's prefab building pieces
Skylanders?
Hello,
Woah what a nice video on steam.. and that music is fantastic to set the vibe,,had to wishlist right away.
Welcome aboard!
so when does thi s game come out or when doe sthe next test come out
Early access sometime next year
my exact same reaction lmao
<@&1354821664998817822> this profile @sacred grotto is trying to push mobile games onto your members
dm's
Banned in a sec, ty.
5080 will be enough 😆
helloooo!!!! 👋
Ahoy!
are there going to be any more playtests before release?
Sadly we do not know
😔 darn it
im siked though, i hope it turns out a lot better than skull and bones. but its not really hard to beat that game
I still enjoy S&B but Crosswind is definitely much better
is there anyway to get an invite to early access?
Sadly no access is currently available
The community and certain discords are the best part IMO - but Crosswind’s alpha was incredibly enjoyable and I’m so excited for what this dev team has in store for us. Stoked, Capitan!
"We do not know" is still better than "No" 😉
True
Believe me when I say we WISH we had info to give
But sadly at the moment we simply don’t
I believe you 
@junior prairie Last playtest ended 3 months ago - we do not know if there will be another playtest before early access or not - will have to wait for #│announcements announcements 🙂
2026 is 2 months away, roughly
I don't think it'll launch January, but maybe Feburary.
Q3 2026 is what they're aiming for iirc
#wewantcrosswind
Waiting like 🫨🫣😧
And we want it NOW!!! Lol
just dump it in alpha and whatever happens happens
Playtest this weekend? whaaaat im hyped!
Good morning you beautiful people how is everyone doing? And I’m right here in the same boat as yall! I can’t wait to play crosswind either, in the meantime I’ve been playing world of sea battle(played for the first time yesterday) Ito doesn’t have the crafting I’m wanting but the sea gameplay is amazing! I’d love to see some of you there, and if you’re interested, check out my twitch https://www.twitch.tv/desuboi941 (just getting started please go easy) but you will be able to see my past livestream of the game to see if you are interested.
Hi, everyone! I've had this account for a while but am practically new to twitch. I plan to IRL stream, play games, react to other creators content and stay engaged with my community. Welcome to the chat!
@lofty basin cmon fella
Are you testing the game? Is it open?
There is no active test at the moment.
Do you know if there is an expected opening date?
yo hello?
The only info we have is that early access is planned for 2026 but we dont know when exactly in 2026
I mean, its about 2 months away. Not too long
I have a question, I haven't been able to find co-op gameplay on large ship sailing. anyone who played the game knows how this will work? Seeing as the person sailing the ship also mans the canons. what are the duties for you friends on the ship?
yeah you got a point.
its less than 2 months and it aint that long. youknow time passes on quiker the older you get
Fr 😢
So far each ship was operated by one person on the helm, exactly like in AC Black Flag. Your friends could walk around on your ship but couldnt operate other features like in Sea of Thieves. This will probably change but we havnt heard anything on the topic from the Devs just yet
@surreal sierra how did u become moderator
Ahh okay, thank you.
Being proactive early on and filling out the application when it was open.
ooh they need to add 2 sets of swivelguns per side for more fun
do you know when thye applcation will be out again?
I doubt they will be open for a while. We have a pretty well spread mod team and overall activity has been manageable
Ohhhhh okay
I would like to see something like this if pvp becomes a focus again. Would be great for friends to operate them during close quarters engagements
arent there like 3 mods online and 2 in offline mode?
Theres usually around 3 of us active at any given time. I wouldnt worry about it
ooh i like that idea and they need to have multiple types of ammo like the cannons
that makes sense then
are there any other things like below moderator?
jeez 4k online
Nope. Only community members, Content creators, Moderators and Devs.
dang it
We have a good handle on things, we dont need mini-mods.
ohh
when i joined there were like 4k people in the server
why cant i type okay
now 4k online
Looking for some info, faq on naval combat says ”one player commands one ship” does that mean if I’m playing with, let’s say, 4 friends, we’re supposed to have a small fleet of 4 ships? Or can I be crew on my friends ship to some extent?
Indeed, during the closed Alpha it was one person per ship. That person would control, sails, cannons and steering. Pretty much like in AC Black Flag. It may change to be more in line with Sea of Thieves later down the line but we dont have that info yet.
Lol no. I'm just a passionate community member. I dont have the knowledge on game design or creation to have any input on how Crosswind is made.
ohhhhhhhh okay
I see, thank you, that’s so far the only turn-off for the game I’ve seen then, heh, hope there’s a mode for group crewing a single ship, always liked sailing a longship with friends in Valheim.
Oh and maybe I would wish the flintlocks to reload slower, should be minimum like 20sec but I’m a nerd for historical weapons so I know I’m in a minority and there’s something wrong with me lmao
Here is a clip I have from the alpha. Its not great as a showcase but it shows enough to give a sense of how ship combat was.
Multiple people working to operate a single vessel is something that has been mentioned many times and the Developers are aware of it so it may very well be added in future releases.
Nice, so for the absolutely most important pirate concept of all time, any mention or sighting of the concept of a "brace of pistols" in the style of Blackbeard (and others), y'know, just packing a ton of pistols on your person so you don't have to worry about reloading for a while. 😛
Sadly not that Ive seen no, and I'm pretty on top of game info (and a few unreleased tidbits shhh
). I'd imagine more cosmetics will come further down the line that encompass a wide array of ye olde pirate styles.
There were ghost pirates manning the cannons👻 lol
God that looks so good 🥲
haha yes the crew wasn`t designed yet so this is what we had
you had litterly no health increase items why?
pretty sure I ran out and was just playing Naval
fair
can you do sharper turns with changing sails? or is it a set speed
three speeds. Slow, fast and travel speed. Speed does affect handling so slower ship=sharper turns
Ahoy, this is your weekly Seaweaver reminder to eat a lemon, they prevent scurvy!
i hope they have some kind of optional pvp, i'd kill to pillage my friend's galleon doing a metal haul
Oh awesome that’s nice
With New World ending soon this game will fill a huge void. I can’t wait!
Alpha player, I assume you use ships to ferry materials around the game world, but like
You can yes, especially when hauling massive amounts
Let's say I load up a ship full of whatever metal/whatever and I take it home, does this provoke a response from pirates??
Because the idea is, with friends, you have one giant vessel that's slow, clunky, but REALLY good at hauling bulk goods, and a fighter or two protecting it
In the alpha there was very little hostile or not behaviour but that may be updated, in the previous one it was if you're too close, they're a set type of ship or if you fired first they'd chase you, otherwise you could skirt past some
Actually, how does enemy ship spawning happen, is it set spots, constantly spawning somewhat around you, provoked through events, etc
They spawned in the ocean, a some what randomized distance away from you
Would be a fun risk reward mechanic, where an especially lush say, neutral merchant faction could be pilfered for immediate rewards, at the cost of retaliation, or helped for slower rewards but it doesn't invoke their wrath
I assume the answer is "not yet" but do ships pick fights with pirates on land? Like, not directly targeting your house, but if you're on an island and a hostile ship wanders too close, will it shoot at you?
I know ship customization is coming soon, and presumably ship upgrades too, are there sea bosses yet?
the land bosses are so pretty, i like the guy who hits you with his soul
No word on that, not in the alpha but not ruled out
That would be hands and an amazing showcase into how they already had a build system as I struggled with him but the priestess was a cakewalk, but I know others talk about having the roles reversed
it looks like a piratey enshrouded, with a few mechanics yoinked from valheim. isn't the food system buff based?
Much better than Enshrouded.
Correct
my "issue" with enshrouded is that i'm kinda dumb, and have no idea what i'm doing
lol
And I know Valheim was a big inspiration to them iirc so it makes sense, I can't speak on enshrouded as I personally haven't played it to know the resemblances
i know there's like, dark souls style pine resins, but i don't know if that's magic or an item
Enshrouded and Return to Moria have more in common, Crosswind has more in Common with Valheim
I believe it when i see it , so put me in the game boss 😛
valheim is huge for most survival games, and arguably the pinnacle at turning game mechanics that are annoying/mediocre (like hunger or durability) and making it somewhat more engaging
i don't think durability will ever be "fun" as a system, but there's no such thing as bad ideas, only bad execution
Yeah I love that Crosswind took that lesson to heart
I played Valheim, Enshrouded and Return to Moris very heavily, and Crosswind was definitely to me even in the early incompleted state much more fun.
Nothing in Crosswind felt tedious or like a slog apart from some of the end alpha stuff that was meant to let you sink extra time into if you wanted to. Everything else was honestly really smooth gameplay wise
valheim turned durability to something more akin to an exposure bar than a resource sink, but kinda lost it at how meaningless it ended up being
@toxic escarp to give you an idea of scale - We only had 13 islands in the Alpha, and did not have 2 of the Biomes. its a 8km x 8km map area of ocean... I sailed out into nothing and saw only ocean and ships for 45 mins, then turned around and sailed back - theres a lot of potential.
the hardest part about making a good pirate game, is making ships feel like a vehicle, rather than your character, apparently
black flag even struggled with this, since there wasn't really any reason to hop off the wheel unless you were parked at an island
and that was literally sailing in a straight line to see how far I could go and still didnt get to end of map
probably for the best you didn't, if i had a nickel for every water themed game where sailing to the edge of the map meant certain doom, i'd have at least two nickels
Sailed off Val map a couple times 😮 wasn't paying attention.
Subnautica has the best one, where it's technically possible, and not super hard to just keep going out
so presumably once you board a beat ship, you can ransack it for materials, and perhaps ship repairs
I think Crosswind did pretty well at this
i think inverse boarding would be fun, but some of the ships are cramped as hell, so it might be a hot take
if we're comparing to assasins creed games, i THINK rogue did this, where if a brig rammed you they'd all hop onto YOUR ship
Again I can't speak for the full game but you did get goodies for boarding and still a bit of money if you sank em
i hope we can snag sail patterns and stuff. maybe ship part schematics from big scary ships
Oh that'd be cool
where maybe you'd find one of blackbeard's heavier ships with some hull reinforcements, a different design than what you can make, so you just snag a copy of the blueprints as a reward
or some faction found a way to make naval rams work, so if you want one, you'll have to take it from them
You know what I kind want to see that's not a deal breaker but is a massive bonus, weapon based cosmetic slot, like, if you have a good hammer or musket that looks corrupted but another musket that looks terrible but works great with your build, let me toil through making an extra weapon just to put it in the cosmetic slot and look incredible while firing my weapon
That would definitely be cool 🙂
i kinda agree with this system, but weapon customization > weapon vanity
like let's say you like the colour red, maybe there's a trader who sells red wood at a price, and you can swap out the handle for it
I may be lame but I can’t play valheim without mods
That’s been a minor annoyance in Enshrouded, like I got cosmetic armour but not weapon? Bah
same with metal, where you get the design for a weapon class, but the metal you use affects it visually
Yeah weapons go overlooked with cosmetics way too much
Although I prefer my equipment being represented by what it actually is rather than using cosmetics, but my partner uses the cosmetics a lot.
like a steel sword is nice, prim and proper, looks like a sword, but you can find a metal that makes your sword look all gross and gnarled
a few decorative features, like coloured cloth handles, maybe decorative tassels
I feel like that's double reason to allow cosmetic slots, what if one look fits the vibe of a weapon way more than the original version?
I am quite fond of a good cosmetic. Imo thats one area where SoT failed, that was all there was, no real endgame, just endless cosmetics grind. Sure there was a lot and quite a few were really cool but a game focused solely on cosmetics isnt great. Plus there were simply too many, and a LOT of them were behind SUPER grindy missions or a battlepass, and I already detest battlepasses
I really didn’t enjoy Sea of Thieves precisely because progression was only cosmetics and money, it felt kinda hollow?
vanity for armor is fine though. BUT MAKE IT DYEABLE
as much as i'd love gold cannons, it's a tiny cosmetic feature that clutters up crafting and complicates things
Dont get me wrong, Sea of Thieves used to be good fun with friends but it got SO boring after a while and no real end goal to work towards. Once I got Pirate Legend, that was kinda, it
but clothing colour? stick it in a loom or something, let me pay a merchant for it
excited for a beta or another playtest
Yeah it was fun when the seas were full of players but that was it
Isn't this game PVP?
It might have optional PVP but PVP is not a core focus of crosswind no
no why?
optional pvp, maybe
forced pvp... no
Finally the days of everything being a PvP game are in the past, long live the days of friend slop, I am eating GOOD.
Bonjour everybody 
Is there any info about the cost of the game?
Release date: 02,30,26
Cost: $54.99
Source of information: trust me bro I just had a dream about buying the game
Sadly no sorry
I wouldn't, espically if you read the actual date as month, day, year. like I wrote it.
(I wasn't being serious. >.> )
I know, but it's funny to play dumb
I think a good idea would be to create a full PvP server for those who want to play that way, and another one for more casual players, where PvP is optional or at least allow players to create their own full PvP servers.
I mean, the servers are going to be player hosted now so that should in theory be possible
Sorry, I hadn’t seen that, but I really hope it’s possible to create a full PvP server.
We shall just have to wait and see
I got 30 bucks that says he’s right
If you win the bet I get a finders fee
Yeah I don’t think I’ll win that bet for obvious reasons 😂
lol
So just giving money away...I'll take that action 😉
Release date: Q3 2026
Cost: 20-40$
Source of information: speculation and comparison with other games of the genre
Hey that's not a real source, this guy's a phony!
SEARCH Q3 IN THIS DISCORD!!!
I did, no where has a dev said q3 from what I can see, just other people saying that's what they think 
is the new showcase announcing a new beta soon ?
assume the worst, get surprised by the best
Hey that's my motto, also it's "Hope for the best, assume the worst"
Release date: tomorrow
Cost: 1$
SOI: this guy named Randal from behind the Walmart
At least you have a source that technically might actually exist.
You get a gold star
||But you also get a late release due to jinxing it||
That’s fine, it’s normal for the best looking games to get announced only for the release date to be set a year or two later then completely forgotten about
So according to Randal you'll be able to buy me a copy too then right?
Can’t wait for the next play test
Just joined... So I'll ask the inevitable.... when?
Sadly we do not know
... *Dies inside
hope this game dosin end up like day after tomorow kind of flop
Nah worse… skull and bones
I'm sorry but calling Skull and Bones a worse flop then THE DAY AFTER is wild
That's so wrong on so many levels lmfao
All they had to do for skull and bones was copy assassin creed black flag and make it more diverse.
They both were pretty bad
Ok 1. Skull and bones is no where near assassins creed black flag. And b. I’ve never even heard of the day after
To be fair it's because even I got the name wrong, it was the day before that turned into a game scam I was thinking of but if you wanna look into watch the video by Skill Up
Also never heard of that
Highly recommend the video, good cautionary tale for why to not trust kickstarter mmo's. Game bombed so hard it was literally a criminal case
how do I get a key for the next beta?
A faaarrrrrmarrrrrrrrr....
Maybe by 1st of year will get a shot at beta
I don’t mind waiting tbh
Might have to Keelhaul a few folks !
When When Whennnnnn ?
Next year
My logic is, if I wait long enough I'll eventually learn the answer some how
Am I right if I understood that there's no access to the game for new players, as for now?
There’s no access to anyone at this moment.
Hopefully soon though. Give it a few months
I love how people join and never bother to look at the news channel or pinned posts..
I continue to just watch and hope for an open beta later not even sure how the closed ones work . Invite or application no clue lol
I DO 🖐🏼😁
- rude
- i did, but i wanted ti be sure since i'm not a native english speaking man
He’s just seen the same comment a ton. Not his fault
Do check the news channel tho. That’s the only thing we have for any updates
It’ll be next year when we see something
not being an native English speaker can be rough for sure, never hurts to ask questions if you aren't sure about something 🙂
We fully agree that if in doubt; ask.
I personally dont mind if someone asks questions that have already been answered.
I just want to kindly ask that we keep things civil from all parties, not saying anyone's done anything yet, just asking kindly
So excited to play this when it’s available
So uh, when I can commit legal Piracy again?
Hey all
why do you keep removing my posts? in my first post i didn't tag anyone in it , it was a general statement , then i get a direct ping by a moron who doesn't know how to read apperently and got offended , then i defend myself ( and i wasnt even the one that started this btw) AND I GET CENSORED YET AGAIN...
O then a nice sidehanded warning to boot
If this was the case then Id assume it would be best to follow the steps here: #📜│rules message
who are you , the fn cops?
Im new here but just looking out for you, at the end of the day this is there discord and as it states:
A FINAL WORD,
This is not an exhaustive list of rules, and we trust everyone to act with common sense.
Depending on the severity and frequency of violations, consequences may include temporary or permanent mutes or bans.
Also, our crew may adjust these rules as needed to keep the community sailing smoothly.
you haven't been here , this peticuler mod ( not even a dev) has gone out of their way to mute me and let their friends attack me and im sick of it .
So as mentioned reach out to the two people @Bambino or @Yar_master, they are apart of the crosswind crew, above the mods
pinging the devs is frowned upon honestly. They are busy trying to make the game, not look over the Discord server.
That being said, I've been part of this community for a while now and I've yet to see any action by the mods that wasn't warranted. You may feel that you have been targeted but I'm sure there was something in the way to said something or how you responded that warranted their actions. Also, the mods are equal opportunity and if there was an interaction you were having with someone else, they gave the same weight of warning to the other party that you got, whether you were privy to it or not.
They left 
It's okay. I have relayed this incident to them and will await their judgement as we have several breaches of our ruleset even after moderators intervened.
It's okay to voice concerns or criticism around moderation and we try to do it as transparent as possible.
End of the day you can never please everyone, we are all human, thank you for taking your time to help the community here and grow what seems to be a very well made game!
wait... we can criticize the mods? ok then! HOLD MY BEER!
You can try.
(great now I gotta try to come up with silly stuff for each one...)
In a well mannered and concise format, feedback is always welcome.
That lilywhite guy is a tool tho. 
Calm down lil bro
I didn't delete anything? I also didn't even ping or call you out? I just put down a message asking to keep things civil? That's literally all I did
No need to explain yourself Seaweaver, been following the conversation and i agree all you did was asking to keep things civil, but there are some people who want seem like they are an victim and take everything way to personal and directed at them
Are we still talking about my ill-informed question? Really?
Sorry about that, i didnt know that would spark such a debate
I don't need to but I'd still like to.
Nah you're good, seriously don't stress
i understand all to well, been in an similar situation quite a few times over the last few years.
is it 2026 yet?
nope
sadly not
Oh not going to be alot under tree this year
*Secure your Buckets today and today only Sailors! I'll have the finest buckets to barter across the high seas day one of release. Reserve yours today. ᴳᶦˡᵇᵉʳᵗ ʰᵒˡᵈˢ ⁿᵒ ˡᶦᵃᵇᶦˡᶦᵗʸ, ʳᶦᵍʰᵗˢ ʳᵉˢᵉʳᵛᵉʳᵈ,™ *
i jus want this game to come out already
Everyone does, but it's getting closer 🙂
Yessir
Shhh shh, it's okay now pops

hurry up and wait all we can do 🙁
Do I hear an interested party for a wooden or metal bucket that will allow you to carry your plunder back to base successfully? I got you Sailor. 🪣
Well well well Mr. Grass 
how do i get a key
No key available at this time all awaiting next beta 😭
found this fun game on steam for free, if you need something to hold you over until crosswind releases 😂
💀
#weneedcrosswind!
Ty and good morning
saw some video's about it, i don't like the idea of an game full with micro transactions that could potentially spiral into P2W, personally i am more likely to give skull and bones another try
https://crosswind-db.com/?v1 is live now!

You don’t have to spend any money
Looking good, I would be changing the official wiki more than I have been I've just been preping and waiting for the official release now that I know the game's going to work differently than orignally anticipated lol
I play that game its pretty cool...but if you want some of the fancy ships its definately a pay wall
your a legend mate
does the game cost money?

Exactly what I’ve been doing it’s lowkey addictive just make sure you do NOT put a mortar on your ship unless you want it as it is a permanent upgrade and you lose 5 broadside cannons. Was very frustrated with myself.
Mortars or booty cheeks
Rusty cannons all the way 😂
Are there any rumors about possible release dates?
Cheers
The Log of patience teaches many things. All good things come in time like crosswind. 🪵
Where's the party?
Hello, see i've been away for a few months and im out of the loop, but I believe i read somewhere that pvp has been scrapped?
Not scrapped per say just not a core focus
I understand, so it's still in the cards for more thoughtful implementation?
They've shifted from the survival craft with MMO lite elements to a more traditional Survival Craft experience.
Possibly
I see, I hope it remains an option somehow. Thank you Weaver 🫡
No problem
If you want to read up more on it I suggest reading through their steam posts, that way it's straight from the horses mouth
every game i have hope for ends up doing this. its honestly sad
theres already enough survival crafting games with no PVP we want Pirate RUST
You want Pirate Rust, but is that what the devs want?
Pvp seems rough for how the combat is atm
@tardy stirrup pvp hasn't been ruled out completely - just shelved for now. It makes it easier to crank rest of the game out. Personally I enjoyed the game without the pvp just fine - was a lot of fun. But I also enjoy the option of doing some pvp - so would definitely be nice to see something added in later that could scratch that itch without penalizing those that have no interest in it. something like what Guild Wars 2 did would be nice - a pvp wporld for those that want to travel to it for that, pvp arenas, etc. Lot of p[otential for scratching that pvp itch if they choose to do that - time will tell. Reguardless it was super fun to play as it was, and now there is so much more added to it 🙂
Rust is literally adding boat bases so you guys will be fine lol
I yearn for the days of being able to honeycomb with my Mateys on the seas, raiding solo 2x2s and being chased by fresh spawned landlubbers screaming and chasing me with rocks
Peak pirate experience
Ship pvp down the road would be cool and or online trading posts
I'd love to see a dedicated official online server again. Player hubs like Tortuga were really fun and I enjoyed seeing other players
Yeeeaaah that would be so cool. Bands/dueling/trading. all in tortuga haha
Kinda how new world did the solo instrument and or group buff
I hope the devs leave the door open to pvp possibilities, like you said it cam be separate worlds so people that don't want to get involved don't have to , imagine guilds of pirates fortifying islands and have fleets attacking ,raiding the fortresses, so much potential
They alive
Howdy Fellers! The FAQ has been updated to reflect more recent news and updates.
@torpid dirge since you changed it from free to play to buy to play… what is the price? Or your still determining it

With dedicated servers, the community could host their own "Pirate Rust" servers, if the devs make pvp an option.
Hey, we haven't decided it yet — as soon as we have updates on that, we'll defo share them
awesome nickname pal

is any date planned that the EA will be released?
EA is planned for 2026 but we don’t know exactly when in 2026 it will be.
Sir I love your name 🙏🏻
I'll buy 6 copies plz
Ahoy, this is your weekly Seaweaver reminder to eat a lemon, they prevent scurvy!
Ty 😆
Patiently awaiting some news
@tawdry locust here is the Bucket of Waiting, Capitan, may it keep you safe during this journey of patience
When the game releases and depending on how the cosmetic system is, there should be a special waiting skin for the bucket
There should be a bucket statue in tortuga
Question, will building in Crosswind be like Enshrouded, as in you have to put down basically a base center and you can only build in that area. Or
Is it like Valheim where you can build anywhere?
*bucket propaganda and lore spreading quickly, my work here is done... or... just beginning 👀 *
in the alpha we could build bases/homes/settlements w fast travel points on whichever islands we went to, and could build mini bases even inside caves w beds to help clear tricky caves. I made simple bases right outside boss areas to help while i learned the encounter/area
Oh that’s sick! That’s really exciting to hear! As much as I love enshrouded I love in valheim that you can build as you go in different locations!
I see what you did there! See where they land haha
I can’t wait for another test! I hate that I missed the previous one!!
we'll see where they land but im fairly confident we will see some flexibility in where/when we can build 😄
(sorry my cat sat on my keyboard)
You said you have a cat. You are now obligated to post said cat in #🎭│offtopic for appreciation purposes.
I have two, and when I am more awake tomorrow I will def post some fur baby pics 😄
🙏
Morning folks, have a great day 🙂
Heya, you too!
Goodday everyone
Looking forward to more news soon! (checks back daily)
Howdy folks, just joined here. Been very excited for the game, is there a way to still sign up for the play testing or has that ship sailed? 😂
Sadly there's no active playtest, nor word on a new playtest any time soon
Gotcha, thanks for the info! I suppose I will bide my time and hold my breath till 2026 with the rest of ya.
when is this game comming out?
Hopefully some time next year if the dev predictions are to come true
ok cya in a year
Why a whole year from now. Next year is only a month and a bit away
YARRRRR!
Lmao, I can play Windrose while listening to wind rose now
And all the hype and marketing for Crosswind is now gone, because people wont know its windrose
Anyone else thinks this is weird?
Yeah not to be a hater but I think that new name is a downgrade...
Ngl crosswind name was cooler
Looks at Steam... Still 'Crosswind'... Looks at Discord... Still 'Crosswind Crew'... Hmm 🙂
That's not true, matey. All the hype and marketing is accumulated as game wishlists on Steam page, and they are not going anywhere.
+1 why bother lol and some sort of pvp would be nice
Gonna guess the name will stay same? Or will eventually change
and when they get that email "WindRose has launched!" they will go "huh?" and delete the email
For a brief second I was like April Fool's and then went wait.. It's not April dang.. lol
