where there's a competition, there's cheating. Only way to even the playing field is to give everyone the choice to cheat. Personally, I would take extreme pride in beating them without (assuming I'd win)

And if I lose, that's on me for not cheating like everyone else lol

[green stone]

Will Windrose have HDR support?

[magic wedge]

anyone know what max player count is or will be?

[regal oasis]

right now looking like 4... there's... ways.. for more, but use those at your own risk

and, annyeonghaseo (I've lost most my korean words I know and definitely don't know how to spell them in your language

[pastel parcel]

4 is a pretty safe bet for most games these days.

[magic wedge]

annetong haseyo

[elfin heron]

is there an anker button. >.< man the boat wont stop moving forward when its at 0 knots

[lament flower]

The dedicated server I was messing around with let me set 10 players

[regal oasis]

let the seas guide ye way mate (no, at least not in demo)

[hollow fulcrum]

Will fall damage be part of the official release or are they not to concerned with that now? If it will I'll have to retrain myself not to just swan dive off high rocks and buildings. lol

[pastel parcel]

Yes but if a game is built to support only 4 you have to be careful increasing the number as that can cause other issues. BUT usually you can mod to allow for more than the supported amount. That comes with certain risks though.

[rigid palm]

sup

[lament flower]

Those were default player #'s from the config

[pastel parcel]

I hope it ends up allowing more than four. I have a group of about 6ish people that we like to game together and it can be hard finding a game we can all play together. LOL

[timid crescent]

This game will most likely release for support for more than 4, they limited it to 4 for the demo based on performance and stability issues

[pastel parcel]

oooooo nice!

[pastel parcel]

That makes sense.

[regal oasis]

that certainly sounds like a safe number, but the point is don't come crying in the discord when something random doesn't work

[magic wedge]

hope so get a full crew, sailing them seas

[nocturne rose]

this games vibe gives 10+

[green stone]

hopefully they optimize the fps being inside your player-built structures. FPS drops big time even in a tiny building.

[nocturne rose]

unless theres technical limitations I think they'd probably go with as many as it can do

[pastel parcel]

As someone that ran a server and was an admin for 7 days to die for years....I couldn't agree with this statement more. LOL If you know....you know.

[valid pumice]

Really? I haven't noticed frame drops on my game and I don't exactly have a high end pc.

[lament flower]

They gave us the tools, minus well play around with them 🤣🤣

[green stone]

I have every setting maxed and it runs fine outside of player built buildings. Reducing settings doesn't change it much.

[nocturne rose]

Me neither, Game only lags when chrome eats ram for me

have you updated your drivers ?

[pastel parcel]

I mean that is actually good for them because it helps them to sort out bugs as long as people aren't nefarious about it.

[nocturne rose]

I was lagging like mad till I updated my drivers

[regal oasis]

drivers are a scam

[green stone]

5800x3d with a 7900xt. I am using outdated drivers sine the radeon drivers have been crap for so long.

[pastel parcel]

a necessary one though sometimes. Zumo

[nocturne rose]

oh maybe its a radeon issue

[lament flower]

They are saying it's not supported in demo.. but I beg to differ

[regal oasis]

breh, just checked my drivers and there's an update TODAY... scam

[magic wedge]

i got a mid build and runs quite smooth as long as im hosting

[nocturne rose]

anyone else on radeon having issues ?

[green stone]

I drop 20 fps just looking at my tiny shack

[regal oasis]

tf does drivers do other than make my games run bad tbh /s

[magic wedge]

im on radeon, but 0 issues

[sonic mural]

still getting server not found error

[magic wedge]

maybe a file download error of the game, file integrity

[regal oasis]

x marks the spot matey (check the pinned comments if you haven't yet)

[green stone]

lemme mess with some in-game settings, maybe something isn't optimized correctly for radeon

[sonic mural]

i did the stuff matey

[sonic mural]

files all check out

[regal oasis]

unfortunately it looks like they have another scheduled down day according to #│game-updates so you might need to wait until after that 🙁

Well I'm off to the rack, to everyone that sees this:

https://tenor.com/view/you-got-it-makings-greatness-in-you-treasure-planet-gif-20508234

[nocturne rose]

Welcome to club wait for the update

[green stone]

Looks like the only way to keep it 60 fps or above in a built structure is to have it at 80% or lower Resolution Upscaling. ugh

[nocturne rose]

Strange

[green stone]

i have a 1440p monitor, i like playing at true 1440p

[nocturne rose]

I'm on 1080 but my friend is on a 3840p and was running straight 60 with this game on mid high tier hardware

[boreal forge]

Anyone else having issues with servers not working? My friend cant connect to me at all, but it was fine last night.

[green stone]

Do you have Resolution Scaling maxed out?

[lament flower]

4070 here and I don't see any performance issues

[vagrant gate]

ok...well this game is badass. That demo was fun

[nocturne rose]

On 1080 on a 3070 I do not have framerate issues, I think its capped to 60 but my monitor runs 144hz and basically no games run anything less than 144 fps for me

[green stone]

Yes, but what in-game settings are you using? I have everything maxed which I do in pretty much every game. The only way to make the framerate playing in a structure for me is to not max out Resolution Scaling.

[hasty roost]

hope youre all having a good day, id be chatting but currently in D&D for a while

[nocturne rose]

bro the implication of my settings was extremely obvious ? max why would I say I have zero framerate issues if I was playing on anything less than max settings

but yeah, my guess is Radeon issue or maybe you should look to see if the newer drivers are worth updating to, idk about Radeon but its never been the correct move to hold off on updates for NVIDIA

[green stone]

More recent radeon drivers had a VR bug I didn't want but it looks like they fixed it. I may try updating.

[crisp knoll]

I WANT MOAR

[nocturne rose]

^^^^^^^^^

this game is very crack like, because its currently bugged and I can't play my co-op I'm sorta just hanging out chatting in the discord but I'm very hyped for this when it comes out of the demo

[green stone]

Co-op is working for me atm, but it did kick me out once which it hasn't done before.

[nocturne rose]

if they aren't kidding about 95% more game, compared to the demo just in the early access (not the full game so who knows what % of the full game we've seen in the demo) this game is going to be epic

[bleak prawn]

why does everything insta kill this game is too hard

[boreal forge]

is everyone having connection issues with co-op then?

[green stone]

Boars will wreck you in the beginning until you learn to counter them

[crisp knoll]

It takes some getting used to but the combat isnt too bad

[nocturne rose]

parry and dodge, The game has "soulslike" in the description for a reason

[crisp knoll]

That damn savage boar is ROUGH

[bleak prawn]

they insta break my guards and i die

[narrow girder]

CO OP FINE FOR ME

[nocturne rose]

get good (parry don't block)

[green stone]

you can't just hold block

[crisp knoll]

You gotta dodge, not parry

[nocturne rose]

Both

[crisp knoll]

You can kite the boars around in a circle, dodging and striking

[bleak prawn]

parry?

[dusky jacinth]

just had a hard crash, hit 3 and was trying to turn my ship and it just froze up hard on me

[crisp knoll]

google what parry is...

[green stone]

All this time and I still can't figure out how to 1/1 the Tent icon on the first island.

[nocturne rose]

if you block at the right time you barely lose any block and can get free attacks

[drifting bough]

A well timed block will not block, but parry. It reduces your enemy's defenses and gives you an opening to counter attack.

[crisp knoll]

I dont think you can wolf

[bleak prawn]

that was not explained 🙁

[drifting bough]

Yup, I learned the hard way. I'm bad at it too. (' ' )b

[green stone]

parry was explained but using the control key for dodging wasn't lol

[crisp knoll]

Its hinted at, some talents say things about "perfect parry" or some such

[nocturne rose]

its a demo, plus "soulslike" get, good

[hard hazel]

anyone else get stuck on being able to repair the ship despite having all the necessary materials to fix it?

[lament flower]

Ehh def not souls like

[green stone]

you need to find your crew

[hard hazel]

ah

time to sail again on my peewee boat

[nocturne rose]

it claims to be one on the steam page, Its got a parry a dodge and stamina, this is the minimum requirement for me to call something a souls like

[crisp knoll]

Need to rescue 7 of them

[green stone]

well, not necessarily your crew, but other sailors

[subtle blade]

To be very specific

[nocturne rose]

Also the progression gives slight souls energy, more generic J-RPG energy but guess where theres shared roots

[woeful chasm]

i feel like it has heavy souls like elements

[subtle blade]

It says "soulslite"

[green stone]

make sure you talk to them more than once until you get the "Free" them selection and for them to go to your ship

[bleak prawn]

now that i know you can parry this is so much better lol

[lament flower]

Souls like.. but everything isn't slow movements, you don't die in 2 hits and if you use the proper gear, upgrades etc things die wasily

[nocturne rose]

I do not care for the distinction between those the same way I don't care about the distinction from roguelike to roguelite, but I will give you the semantic victory there

[green stone]

and trees can kill you too just like in Valheim lol

[dapper smelt]

Yeah, I suck at the combat and I am not a Souls like player, so I am indeed going to have to get good.

[nocturne rose]

have you played past the early game of a souls like, the baby enemies, Most of what we see in the demo, generally don't kill you in two hits once you have you have a real build with "proper gear, upgrades etc" And some of them just become farmable chaff

[spark terrace]

Did you read the note?

[green stone]

yes

[spark terrace]

Have a shovel?

[nocturne rose]

and in this as in a soul like, you do tend to die in one hit vs the bigger badder thing

[green stone]

yes, it won't let me dig on the part that looks like u need to dig

[tender patio]

Same. Read the note, no dice.

[nocturne rose]

its also very very very very cheesable and I highly doubt they will be able to uncheese it ever

[dapper smelt]

There is buried treasure as is usually the case with pirates.

[spark terrace]

Dig where it will allow you. It's not where you'd think it'd be. ||Under the tree with the red fabric, opposite where the note is||

[regal oasis]

Yarr mateys, before I slumber I have a proposition ... When the build contest opens I'll have an island for anyone that joins the world, build, destroy, whatever you want.. and I'll post the final product to the contest!

[grand oracle]

Anyone else unable to host a server this evening?

[drifting bough]

... also for the dumb of us, remember to allocate your stat points.
I've been getting smacked around... only just now realized I've not allocated single one.

[nocturne rose]

check pins for solutions some people have got their games working with the suggested things but also you might get to join club wait for the update later tonight with me and a few other people

[grand oracle]

Thank you for the prompt reply!

[versed folio]

Anyone know when the full game will release?

[lament oasis]

what island is best for your main base build ?

[dapper smelt]

I ended up relying on a combination of unique Rapier and Halberd with a bit of brute force, so I could have definitely made it easier on myself.

[white gazelle]

In the same boat but with joining. Other people able to join my friend but me. Even was able to play on the server a few hours earlier but nothing now 😭

[drifting bough]

Which shoreline makes you enjoy seeing it.
Build where you like to look at it 😛

[lament oasis]

Is it safe to build on shore where the drowned spawn ?

[drifting bough]

Yes, because your fire will suppress those respawns.
I would still recommend an actual house however, just in case one wanders in.

[versed folio]

Depends on if light prevents it from spawning where your base is

[drifting bough]

Seems to for me, so far. (' ' )b For what it's worth.

[dapper smelt]

I would hope nothing spawns by a Bonfire.

[storm vector]

This game is amazing

[lament oasis]

I agree 100%

[timber sail]

If i could get in a server I'd agree :p

[hasty roost]

i totally feel like the sails on the ships are just for looks.

the ships are actually powered by an Unreal Engine

[green stone]

You guys like the blue quality sabers or blue quality rapier?

[lament oasis]

I do

[green stone]

Not saying what the rapier is due to spoilers

[hasty roost]

i use the saber

[green stone]

Too bad the musket doesn't scale with agility

[spark terrace]

Sturdy Sabre is my go to.

[timid crescent]

can't you just host your own solo game?

[tawny plover]

https://tenor.com/view/a5m-albert-fifth-musketeer-royal-gif-11098680968051125674

[timber sail]

yeah but thats no fun 💔

[dapper smelt]

Indeed, I definitely want to build and get a fleet of ships.

[green stone]

Razor is nice for crits, using it atm

[open ingot]

Feb 29th

[subtle blade]

Musketon will

[timber sail]

tmrw? 🔥

[hasty roost]

like, it makes sense. but as a saber user, splitting like 80/20 between Agility and Precision for damage stats is like oof.

[spark terrace]

I used it too. I prefer the stamina advantage.

[polar scroll]

some one know if the game will have open servers in the future with capacity for more than 4 people?

[green stone]

is there one in the demo somewhere?

[hasty roost]

do we know exactly what it means by "increases effectiveness" though

[open ingot]

Today is the 27th if you're in the US.

[lament oasis]

My Favorite weapon so far

[timber sail]

i lwk thought it was 12 already 💔 im just tired mb

[little pike]

I think I got everything you could get

[versed folio]

TOMORROW!?!?!!?

[open ingot]

You may want to look at a calendar

[dapper smelt]

I ran all the blue weapons, but I haven't bothered with the Musket, and ended up mainly using the Rapier and Halberd, though I can definitely see a world where I specialize in a Sabre.

[shell leaf]

Rapier is the best weapon. The bleeding causes it to spread other enemies and you don't need to kill them, just let them bleed out

[placid condor]

is boat character saved or world saved?

[timber sail]

if it was 12 am it would be the 28th so tmrw would be the 29th in that case. but alas I am tired and my head is weary.

[versed folio]

I like to just shoot with the musket, it's satisfying, though the damage isn't the best

[open ingot]

Still advise you to look at a calendar

[versed folio]

So, the full release is in one day?

[timber sail]

😒

[little pike]

kinda wanted a crab shell to go with the dodo and boar heads

[open ingot]

Please look at a calendar

[shut light]

no

[open ingot]

Pick up more crabs. You'll get it

[versed folio]

29th, right?

[shut light]

tomorrow is the 28th

[little pike]

thought it wasnt in demo

[versed folio]

for me it already is the 28th

[dapper smelt]

I was just worried about ammo, as I usually am with ranged weapons, but I suspect that won't be a problem with workers.

[shut light]

the 29th of feburary doesnt exist

[timber sail]

yup, and i thought it was 12 bc ive been tired :p

[versed folio]

just realized... Shyt

[timber sail]

OH LOL

[shut light]

ya'll got messed with so hard.. lol

[dapper smelt]

No leap day this year.

[timber sail]

told ya i was tired

[green stone]

Feb 29 technically does exist

[versed folio]

Soooo, 1st of mars?

[green stone]

but in 2028

[timber sail]

or he doesnt know and was just messing with us :p

[versed folio]

Wait, I am so confused

[timid crescent]

because none of us know, all we know is it's sometime this year

[timber sail]

oh dope

[green stone]

People were just being facetious by saying it was Feb 29.

[shut light]

goofy.. as much as i want the game to release soon the first of march is not it.. itll prob release end of q3 or beginning of q4 this year. IF we are lucky

[timid crescent]

hundreds of people come in here every day and ask "when is it coming out" so it gets old fast lol

[versed folio]

I just want to know when the release is ) :

[timid crescent]

yeah and so does EVERYBODY ELSE.

[drifting bough]

Feb.29 is only on a Leap Year, the year you get a bonus day on February.

We don't have a set date. We have a demo that's free until they do give us one. ❤️

[timber sail]

it'll be a hot minute dw

[timid crescent]

it's going to be at least a couple months

[versed folio]

Oh, well. I am looking forward to the release.

[shut light]

They can take all the time they need. The bones are there for something great already, so I will wait patiently.

[quaint swift]

are co-op servers down right now?

[versed folio]

ineedenuienly.

[frail root]

Anyone else get the absolute dog snot beat out of them by that first boar on the island?? That was hilarious

[green stone]

I'm playing co-op, but using a friend code instead of picking from the list, maybe that matters?

[shut light]

they should be up. i had to restart my router before it worked tho

[versed folio]

I despise the boars

[shut light]

gotta learn that parry and dodge shuffle tech fam

[dapper smelt]

Indeed, boars are no joke. I really should upgrade gear.

[versed folio]

I should too

[timid crescent]

i just get a better weapon and spam mouse1, sometimes run away and bandage lol

[shut light]

block right as there head goes back. best timing i have found

[tawny plover]

the list is only a list of previous codes used; its however you prefer but the list is simpler

would love to join someones server if i wouldnt be intruding c:

[drifting bough]

..oh that's right i can upgrade things... derp.

[timid crescent]

bitte

[timber sail]

k

[dapper smelt]

Indeed, I never upgrade initial gear specifically for that reason. I just wish we could get the full sets.

[timid crescent]

that would be nice but you can rock 2 of the 2 set bonuses

[tiny dust]

i finsihed the demo and I tried to free sail the map but when I sail into seas tier 3 I get a notified my ship will be destroyed if I do not leave the seas

[elfin heron]

how do i repair the ship. i have all the material but it still says i need a warf while im out at sea

[tiny dust]

just curious how long I have to wait for early access

[dapper smelt]

Wharf or Repair Packs.

[tiny dust]

because this game is amazing so far

[tawny plover]

this bird brain got caught

[timid crescent]

at least a couple to a few months, the only release date we know is sometime this year

[shut light]

prob Q3 or 4 of this year

[elfin heron]

I have repair packs but when i click nothing happens

[open ingot]

Feb 29th

[tiny dust]

it will be placed in slot 5

[dapper smelt]

Ship Hotbar.

[elfin heron]

the ship battle is so cool 😄

[tiny dust]

it reminds me of black Flags ship warfare

[elfin heron]

yay i see it now

[soft helm]

100% lol

[dapper smelt]

Indeed, I very much look forward to larger ships.

[tiny dust]

I am a bit dissapointed you can loot things to be sold but no trader city in the demo

[elfin heron]

I hope that both players in the same party can both access the same ship inventory

[dapper smelt]

The demo is very much a tease.

[hard drum]

this game is beautiful!

[dusky jacinth]

my game is hard crashing during the ship battles

[shut light]

trader is inside the second mine on the third island. at the back of the left tunnel. you got to break through waste rock

[gusty dome]

I have a very weird question. This guy uploaded a video 3 days ago. But he's playing with content that is not in the demo and he's not saying anywhere in the description if it's from the alpha Testing or anything. So is this from the alpha or something else? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8ru2DF8ZZs&t=693s

[elfin heron]

can we board enemy ships yet? 😄

[soft helm]

i mean it makes sense.. they want you to play it rn so least having to go fight the lil camps etc to regain things like gunpowder keeps us busy while we out farmin lol

fight a ship and find out 😉

[dapper smelt]

Yes, damage them until they slow down and get close to board them.

[tiny dust]

this game has only been in demo for 10 days is that right?

I wonder if they will add capturing shps and adding it to your fleet?

[shut light]

g'night folks. get some much needed Z's

[dapper smelt]

One would hope, since that is what any good pirate would do.

[dusky jacinth]

Is any one else hard crashing during the ship combat?

[green stone]

there is really a trader?

[dapper smelt]

No, though I have occasionally had the game lock up and sometimes have trouble loading a save.

[tiny dust]

https://tenor.com/view/smg4-smg4skill-issue-skill-issue-smg4mario-smg4skill-gif-26104493

whaf thats what it is. hard lock up. i was streaming so lets see if that helps if i turn it off

[dusky jacinth]

i will do a crime on you

[tiny dust]

ok mate but I do not crash and I am running on Epic graphics

[silver remnant]

Well the bigger ships will definitely target a lil fella

[tiny dust]

I manage to sink the lvl 4 Blackbread transport ship it wasnt easy

[mild cedar]

Try interceptors next

[tiny dust]

wait there is interceptors where do you find those??

[elfin gulch]

Anyone else having issues with grouping in a hosted server?

[mild cedar]

Just like transports, random spawn but rarer

[tiny dust]

https://tenor.com/view/yikes-ahhh-scared-nervous-shouts-gif-16852865

I died to a Level 4 Blackbeard Transport after finishing the demo, then proceeded to start a new character/world not realizing I could recover my ship at the Wharf.

[elfin gulch]

[green stone]

If you know what this movie is then you're old like me lol

[tiny dust]

I was 5 when my mother showed me that movie

its a classic

[fierce ridge]

same...my girlfriend just said she's never been more excited for early access from just a demo

[hard hazel]

okay i rescued all the crew but it still wont let me repair the ship lol

[green stone]

you got all 7?

[hard hazel]

the 6 at the far island and the one on the same island as the ship, ye

[tardy flower]

if anyone is wondering, there will be 4 ship sizes for us to get I believe. Ketch, frigate, cutter, brig.

[gentle elk]

We had an issue where we thought we had all the crew rescued but that wasn't the case. Make another trip around to ensure that they are rescued. Don't repair until you have that part done else you will lose your mats.

[green stone]

hmm, I do know that I had to speak with the first guy twice to get the option for him to go to the ship

[hard hazel]

yeah my ship dr guy is also nowhere to be found lol

[green stone]

If you plop down another bonfire somewhere he may show up

[elfin heron]

oooh! I'll have to try that later. ty Zeta you have been helpful

[hard hazel]

i moved it to where the wreckage is and destroyed my old one

[half lance]

Yes, my friend can join me but I can't find his server

[mild cedar]

You can summon the Doc by interacting with the Bonfire

[timid crescent]

I've got no issues on Linux, was able to host a server with friends also. There are issues with the game's netcode though it seems as a lot of people are having problems connecting to or hosting games

[elfin gulch]

Yeah, I am absolutely haveing that issue

[timid crescent]

There is a pinned message with some troubleshooting tips

#💬│windrose-chat message

[unborn cedar]

who is reaper ruiz?

[elfin heron]

Make sure he is shown as online and sign in to the messenger for steam

[half lance]

Yeah, I had him invite me from steam and it showed a server error and would not connect

[elfin heron]

Rip. I'm not sure then 🙁

[half lance]

"Join Error: Not Found"

[elfin heron]

Why don't you try to make a server and have them join

[tardy flower]

is datamining the gamedemo frowned upon?

[timid crescent]

Don't think so, it's been done a few times already with some of the content

[tardy flower]

oh? anything of note?

[unborn cedar]

yea its not like you descovered fire

[timid crescent]

Just some cool ship customization options and what not

[rapid linden]

this game is so peak

[unborn cedar]

sol true

[timid crescent]

The demo being this good is just insane to me

[placid condor]

does the demo have a level cap?

[unborn cedar]

Just tried Battle Sail and it just made me want to get drunk and play WR

[elfin heron]

I think so, I don't seem to level unless I finish quests

[tardy flower]

[timid crescent]

I just keep wanting to play it lol, nearly 50 hours in a game that takes like 5 if you rush it

[crude heron]

RAHH

[unborn cedar]

[tardy flower]

i only ever had one of those ships spawn, i wanted to take it as my own but couldnt.

[crude heron]

i've seen 2 so far lmao

[timid crescent]

Oh btw I finally successfully boarded a ship, I've tried like 8 or 9 times so far and died every time because I would just simply jump aboard alone

[unborn cedar]

yea me and my buddy were playing and I got one but didnt tell him lol

i'm proud of you

I mean, the mechanic works like this: you board the enemy ship BEFORE you step off the wheel

So your crew goes with you

[tardy flower]

shooting one enemy sailor down before boarding can turn the tide easily

[timid crescent]

Yeah but if you don't engage the mechanic from the helm, the enemy pirates just keep respawning infinitely...

I literally killed 70 pirates in one attempt and still failed because I ran out of ammo

[mild cedar]

You jumped on their ship without initiating boarding from the wheel?

[timid crescent]

Yes LOL

[mild cedar]

Welp, i guess the BlackFlag special is not doable lol.

[timid crescent]

Guess not

[rapid linden]

god i love that the ship is an actual physical THING and not just some vehicle you hop into.

[bitter ice]

Question for everyone. is there something we can do with the old weapons or clothes like a recycle or something to get some resources back?

[magic wedge]

whats the time for resourses to respawn?

[mild cedar]

Nothing in the Demo so far

[magic wedge]

i just gave it friends, their problem then

[hard hazel]

yeah i think my bigger boat quest is bugged 😭

[gentle elk]

We dropped ours in an ocean area

[graceful vale]

hello everyone

my friend and i are trying to play but we keep getting this

[fast orchid]

In the pinned messages there's some steps you can do to try to fix some errors but if it doesn't work the official statement is as weird as it is to just keep trying, they've implemented a new report system so every fail still sends them more info on how they can fix things

[timid crescent]

uh oh, what's going on with it?

[hard hazel]

all 7 sailors free, repairable ship found, all required materials gathered, no option to repair it

[timid crescent]

have you tried hitting K to spawn it?

[honest plover]

Do you have the materials in your inventory ?

[hard hazel]

spawns my small boat

[timid crescent]

hm ok, what happens when you interact with it?

[plucky coral]

anyone else having a server not fount issue while trying to join a friends game?

[timid crescent]

yes please check the pinned messages for troubleshooting tips

[hard hazel]

just says leave, with or without the materials in my hand directly

[plucky coral]

i might sound dumb but how do i do that?

[hard hazel]

icon in the top right of ur screen if pc

[timid crescent]

up at the upper right of the chat, where it shows # general-chat etc, the 3rd icon looks like a pin

[plucky coral]

thx

[mild cedar]

How about interacting with the shipwreck?

[timid crescent]

does it say "there's nothing else to do here?"

[magic wedge]

whats the refresh on resourse?

[honest plover]

ore is 2hr .. trees never

[mild cedar]

Maybe, talk to the Doctor? i think it was one of the steps

[magic wedge]

ty

[timid crescent]

oh true, this could be it

[hard drum]

what i had to do is i press the boat then it brings up dialouge with no option then i clicked the screen and the options appeared

[hard hazel]

i tried all his dialogues. i think me moving camps and destroying the old one probably bugged it out

no big deal tho, not like its very far into the game anyway, ill start over

[timid crescent]

did you resettle the doctor?

[frosty relic]

Did I just get boundaried? hahah

[crude heron]

welp i completed the demo in a few hours

now i have a ship

[hard drum]

noice, now you gotta go build a town

[crude heron]

fight captains until i reach 100 in total count

[mild cedar]

Make it 200 for Seaweaver's challenge.

[drifting bough]

... So, query.

There's a few quests. (' ') There's one that pops "to be continued". Is it not finished in the demo, or do I need to find the next phase of it?

[mild cedar]

Afaik, not finished.

[honest plover]

To be continued .. in Early Access. not the demo

[drifting bough]

Saddest of socks, the rewards accordingly stuck at 2/4? Before I start going all in on upgrades.

[trail sinew]

you need permission to vote / view building contest?

[hard hazel]

A few times on different islands

[honest plover]

did all the quest markers for the crew go away ?

[raven dagger]

Voting starts 13th march

[frosty relic]

Is it just the starting area? You cant go past a certain space

[drifting bough]

Just the first 3 islands.

[honest plover]

@hard hazel One thing you can also try is to load up a new world with that character (bring the materials) and see if you can complete the quest there

[edgy cloak]

Can’t wait for the game to come out even early access I’ll be buying it straight away

[rain adder]

I wish they would let us fish right now haha

[tardy flower]

farming will seem to have at least these crops:

[hasty roost]

i absolutely LOVE seeing asset data and files.

makes my brain happy

[honest plover]

DO know that just because it is in the files doesn't mean it will be in the game.

[noble reef]

how mad is this demo

[tardy flower]

yeah fully aware of the concept of cut content

[honest plover]

I dont remember it all that well, but most if not all of those were in the Alpha

[tribal lake]

Just 3 islands. The ocean surrounding has boundaries that will auto kill if you go to far away. Total size is 3-5min travel top to bottom in the ketch. What ever that equates to in km.

[honest plover]

There are ways people have found to get well past the boundary and to other islands. But they are basically barren, just some trees and stuff.

[tardy flower]

you can get to the "backdrop islands"

[tribal lake]

Before I get close I get the "turn back or be immediately destroyed" message

[tardy flower]

yeah i broke the game to get to them

[tardy flower]

you're not missing anything, so dont worry about it

[remote arrow]

i need the full gameeeeeeee im dying out here

[lavish hamlet]

CORN?!

[tardy flower]

the full game will be released on USER WAS BANNED FOR THIS POST

[lavish hamlet]

https://giphy.com/gifs/korn-ZlExy3pyQPR4c

[timid crescent]

Anyone else have super dumb ship names? I called mine: The Stinky Pinky

[tardy flower]

Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap

[lavish hamlet]

I name mine after shanties, women or historical ship wrecks like the General Slocum

[timid crescent]

Nice

[lavish hamlet]

I was also considering SS Atlantic

Or SS Arctic

[hard drum]

mine Folly O' Mine, named it after my SoT ship. i named that ship caus i like sea of thieves but every time i start a voyage or start playing my mom hollars for me. every time

[rough wraith]

Game is LIT! Are there Crews/Guild recruiting already? I am in SEA.

[frosty relic]

Game is great! Cant wait for MORE!

[marsh bronze]

[unkempt granite]

How am I supposed to free my crewmates?

They just remain in their indestructible cages

[celest bane]

once you free them all out they decide to step out xP

[hasty roost]

i just got in game and my ship is destroyed because it loaded inside something :c

[honest plover]

kill the things around them and then talk to them. They will still just stay in the cage but as long as the quest marker goes away you should be good

[unkempt granite]

...whaaaa?

[raven dagger]

The Brown Floater

Because wood is brown 😁

[indigo birch]

anyone know if its possible to complete the discovery stuff in the demo?

[unkempt granite]

Here's the thing
I killed the things around them, then I left to a mine
Came back, the pirates had respawned

I know its a respawn because the Blackbeard crew chest is empty (I looted it before)

[honest plover]

More killing seems like the obvious answer

[lavish hamlet]

I gotta say. THANK YOU SO MUCH WINDROSE DEVS for not screwing up leave her Johnny like how Ubisoft just butchers it.

[unkempt granite]

Obviously, but now I'm thinking I failed the quest or something

[rough wraith]

They respawn, but when you kill them, talk to the man in the cage. There won't be any animation that they are freed but it will count as 1.

Mark will disappear in the map

[honest plover]

did the quest marker go away? what is the last thing the crew says to you when you talk to them ?

[unkempt granite]

Something about "meet back in camp"
When I walk back to my camp (a few meters away) they're not there

[drifting bough]

... i can't plant anything in the demo, can I.

[honest plover]

they dont actually go to camp .. if all the markers are gone, go back to the boat with the materials in your Inv and interact with it

[raven dagger]

no

[unkempt granite]

Does Copper respawn in the mines or is it gone once depleted?

[drifting bough]

feck. ty.

[honest plover]

after 2 hrs

Your character (and boat(s)) inventory follow the character between worlds. You can also farm(gather/.. not like actual farming!) things by creating new worlds and transferring it back.

[unborn cedar]

It respawns

[drifting bough]

i swear to god i am going to yeet you into the sun.
I THOUGHT THEY FIXED THIS.

[crude heron]

The level 3 seas past the level 1 is off access

[honest plover]

that is why I always have at least 2 doors

[drifting bough]

I need to assign him a chair.
Then tie him to it.

[crude heron]

Pretty sure the doctor isn’t the reason why we were shot twin

[drifting bough]

Unfortunately my little den does not have space for a second door. But this arse is temptin gme.

[drifting bough]

He was not, but he is about to need to treat a musket wound. >:|

Fortunately, my house is just deep enough I can break his 'always look at the player' lock and make him walk away if I walk to my back wall.

[crude heron]

Sounds like misdirected rage

[drifting bough]

Then he needs to get out of my front door. xD

[crude heron]

Never had that issue

[lavish hamlet]

Man, I hope we get figureheads for our ships in the game. I need a jackdaw!

[crude heron]

This isn’t sea of thieves !!!!

[rough wraith]

Anyone tried to go to the end of the map? There was boss music lol

I quickly turn around lol

[crude heron]

My question is, WHY did my shanties break when i messed with the “music” option in audio settings

Like genuinely just doesn’t work anymore

[subtle blade]

No. Since the demo launched, not one other player has tried to go to the end of the map. You are the first.

[crude heron]

I reached the boss music looking for blackbeards ships

[rough wraith]

Kinda wanna find out HAHA i will tell what happens

[crude heron]

Is this just to be different twin

[noble monolith]

it told me turn away or be destroyed

[fast orchid]

You sink

[unborn cedar]

Womp womp

[fast orchid]

And die.

[drifting bough]

It's a fun trick with the coding sequence.```

[crude heron]

so an excuse to be slightly more noticeable, then?

[noble monolith]

hjhkhk

[unborn cedar]

Nerd on bro!

[drifting bough]

Yes. xD

[fast orchid]

I just use it to easily type out multiple segments.
Because you don't have to hit shift enter to get a new line```

[wicked comet]

howdy so how do u get plant fibers is it just dropped from choppin down palms?

[unborn cedar]

I used to chat in caps so I could see my msg lol oh the good old days

[noble monolith]

no

[wicked comet]

nvm bushes

[unborn cedar]

Bingo

[drifting bough]

I generally use i when I need my characters to be perfectly spaced. Or when someone asks me programming questions. -Shrug- Works for color tricking though!

[fast orchid]

Markdown text can definitely be fun

[crude heron]

I’m gonna be bragging about this for a while 😭

[fast orchid]

Gotta get the 200 to turn into me for the community quest

[hasty roost]

uh. what. communiy quests?

lol

[crude heron]

To turn it in or to become you?

[unborn cedar]

Yup. Ship full of gunpowder

[fast orchid]

Had 2 earn the 200 and 1 person actually turned it in lil

[wicked comet]

I just discovered this game but I can tell its gonna be one of my favs

[crude heron]

Not tonight mate, work in the morning

[fast orchid]

I've offered anyone who brings me 200 a ship full of gunpowder

[hasty roost]

ah. that's quite a lot of powder

[fast orchid]

Indeed

[unborn cedar]

Name the ship “powder keg”

[crude heron]

So hours of time and effort in exchange for something you would lose when the main game comes out

[fast orchid]

i only got this flex rn

[rough wraith]

I use it all the time with other servers hehe

[unborn cedar]

Yea but the stories you can tell are priceless

[fast orchid]

It's named Regret after dark

my two ketchs are Miss Fortune and Calypso

[unborn cedar]

My ship is The Soggy Lime

[fast orchid]

It's useful for playing around with gun builds and a complete side objective that you don't have to do. Just for people to have fun

[regal remnant]

Anyone able to screenshot the full map for me? I have something I want to look into but I’m not at my PC ❤️‍🩹

[crude heron]

My ship is The Bloodmaw’s Wrath

[rough wraith]

Tried and tested lol

[unborn cedar]

And my crew are The soggy lime boys

[fossil rover]

I thought I was bad at 40 something hours because I had two sick days this week

[wicked comet]

i am failin to find a boar

[unkempt granite]

So...what is Ash used for, since I can't craft gunpowder?

[fast orchid]

All my actual ships are variations of my main ships name, "The Afterlife"

[crude heron]

Have you tried deforestation?

[fast orchid]

Sadly nothing on the demo

[unkempt granite]

Aight, noted

[fossil rover]

Dump it in a big pit and use it like a sandbox

[wicked comet]

i found a lantern though

[regal remnant]

Boars are often near the ruins

[fast orchid]

Nah I have nex to no life lol

[fossil rover]

Boars like hanging out around bananas and potatoes too it seems

[unborn cedar]

Can’t find a boar? How about after clearing the trees away and scorching the earth?

[wicked comet]

i havent found any of those

[regal remnant]

Anyone able to send me a screenshot of the map zoomed in on the three islands?

[unborn cedar]

Oops wrong person

[crude heron]

https://tenor.com/view/jonah-hill-i-guess-bro-bro-i-guess-ok-man-gif-6278747235421617446

[fossil rover]

They're different every time you generate a new world, everybody's map looks different. It's the same three islands just in different orientations

[unkempt granite]

What about feathers? What can I craft with feathers?

[regal remnant]

Oh shoot. No idea. Never mind then

[rough wraith]

I see tons of boars around the island. Teleport to next island

[lament flower]

I'd do it for a dev greatsword :p

[unborn cedar]

Naw bro. I don’t want to put my pirates HQ out there on the web

[wicked comet]

i keep dying to drowned though

[fossil rover]

If you leave out some cookies, they will go after the cookies and you can stab them in the back

[wicked comet]

lol

[unborn cedar]

Have you tried talking to them as equals?

[unkempt granite]

PLEASE tell me we get to save our creations as prefabs in-game...

[lament flower]

I know they got dev weps 🤣🤣 we just dun have access to console or rcon commands 😅😅

[wicked comet]

is there a way to skip time?

[fossil rover]

Real talk though, remap the Dodge button to a side button on your mouse, pressing the control button is really awkward but if it's easy to get to as a mouse side button it's very useful. First time playing with friends I was rage quitting because of the combat was so annoying, they got me to change that and it made things a thousand times easier.

I have zero experience with souls like combat so that was all new to me

[marsh stream]

Greatswords for a pirate is an interesting concept, below deck fighting would be difficult.

[unborn cedar]

In theory

[rough wraith]

Sleep in real life

[unborn cedar]

Great showed for a pirate sword be impractical

https://tenor.com/view/time-skip-time-gamers-gamers-infinite-infinite-gif-17010719332329656969

[rapid linden]

I've finished the demo and I cannot be more excited for a game

[tardy flower]

now do the building contest

[somber radish]

I wonder if we'll get ally npcs, like friendly pirate ships...

or maybe sail in a fleet, 1 galleon/man o war and 2 frigates, 2 brigs lol

[marsh stream]

Indeed it would, I would be more in favor of the 1700s Iron Grenade as craftable black powder weapons.

[unborn cedar]

Now that would be cool

[tardy flower]

I datamined the answer to this question. is it appropirate to share?

[unborn cedar]

https://tenor.com/view/seth-meyers-spoiler-alert-spoiler-giveaway-secrets-gif-9191849

[somber radish]

... wdym you datamind...

[fast orchid]

Sadly I can't provide that

[somber radish]

what can you provide that you won't... somewhat leak

[marsh stream]

Crisp High-Fives for all.

[fast orchid]

We have hirelings making a comeback for sure so people you hire then use to gather stuff like some. Wood, some even farm for you

[lost ridge]

How do you get access to play? The game looks like an updated version or atlas

[unborn cedar]

Are they appropriately compensated?

[tardy flower]

its a game about pirates, so they are probably slaves.

[fast orchid]

Indeed, you pay them to start the harvest

[magic wedge]

anyone have a rough idea of when the officail release is?

[marsh stream]

Food, Dink, & Coin would be a great start for compensation. Followed up by lodgings.

Tomorrow afternoon

[rapid linden]

since Agility scales with Sabers and Musketons
will Musketons be 1 handed guns or 2 handed?

[unborn cedar]

March. But they won’t admit it. Lol

[fast orchid]

Probably 2 handed

[rapid linden]

pain

[tardy flower]

is there anyway to improve resource harvesting aside from higher material tier tools?

[fossil rover]

2 handed probably, they were just shorter lighter muskets. Think of a modern-day carbine

[unborn cedar]

[tardy flower]

temper temper

[tender sentinel]

Yo where do I find clay gang

[fossil rover]

Just little habits I find. Don't chop down a tree and then chop up the log. Chop down a whole bunch of trees the logs falling on each other will break them down into wood and save your chopping.

[fossil rover]

Lumpy Brown crap in patches by the beach. Bring your pickaxe

[unborn cedar]

Hey the drowned threw a coconut at my ship’

[rapid linden]

was just curious since Agility is the main stat for Sabers
and Sabers are one handed, meaning if you wanna use an offhand (like the pistol) you'll need to divide your stats between Agility and Precision

[quaint sapphire]

https://tenor.com/view/are-we-there-yet-deadpool-gif-5676800

[drifting bough]

Or run Rapier, which is also Precision.

[fast orchid]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/941890252488990723/1468635836122660994/Pi7_GIF_CMP.gif

[rapid linden]

yeah but rapier is so.
It feels much more of a Navy thing than a pirate thing

[drifting bough]

..Vallid tbh.

[unborn cedar]

I use the axe just for fun

[rapid linden]

you think this guy is wielding a rapier ?

[fossil rover]

Bleed damage is nice but weak damage is weak

[tropic viper]

In Sid Meyer's Pirates, the rapier was one of three sword choices. Nothing wrong with the rapier.

[marsh stream]

Will we be getting a Captain's Log or Ship's Log to record important events & or encounters.

[unborn cedar]

He’s using a femur from the last guy that offered him tea

[drifting bough]

Only the one rapier has bleed, sadly.
I hope they give me that on more weapons in release. xD

[abstract aspen]

looks like he is wielding his foot up the enemies arse haha

[quaint sapphire]

Lmao every time you send the standard info for release date or say soon I am gonna send the dead pool gif 😄 let's do this for 6 months 😄

[tardy flower]

sooo... only 3 bosses in the game?

[unborn cedar]

Fast she’s was too

[tropic viper]

The bleeding damage is amazing. Get some stacks of bleed on, then step back and watch 'em bleed to death.

[rapid linden]

oh yeah nothing wrong with it. just an aesthetic thing

[fossil rover]

The steam page pics with infected zombies and the weird bloated forest, I'm assuming there will be weapons with poison effects

[somber radish]

Are we getting pets? did we confirm that?

I wanna include them in the game

[drifting bough]

... P o t e n t i a l l y?
But there was none in the play test, so we'll see.

[unborn cedar]

Can we get some skeletons and such for decoration please

[tropic viper]

I hope the game allows us to capture ships, providing we have enough crew members to sail the captured ship. Can you imagine running into the Spanish Fleet and picking off some Treasure Galleons? The mind boggles.

[fossil rover]

I wish we could capture the Blackbeard ships in the demo, they look cool

[tropic viper]

Heh. In Sid Meyer's Pirates, I always went after Blackbeard as soon as I could 'cause he had a frigate (or one of the better versions of the frigate).

[unborn cedar]

Animals but I’d assume more

[tropic viper]

I haven't gone after the final ship in game 'cause I'm having too much fun elsewhere. I do plan to pick off a sloop or merchantman I see going around.

[unborn cedar]

I’d always try and court the ladies lol

[somber radish]

how are people getting access to these stuff 💀

[unborn cedar]

https://tenor.com/view/laptop-hacking-hacker-cat-gif-5423768830271062600

[drifting bough]

Datamining. Which is all based off the demo and playtest, and may not reflect the final game. >.>
It's also spoiler city if you weren't in the playtest and don't know where the plot is headed.

[fossil rover]

Speaking of ships, before I had the ketch and was blasting around in the little boat, I'm positive I saw a ship labeled Blackbeard interceptor with two masks, kind of looked like a Brig or something. But have never seen one like that since. Is there more than one ship type in the demo?

[tropic viper]

Yeah, the rapier was the way to go, especially if you were going after the "hot" governor's daughters.

[marsh stream]

My ideal ship class for in game play

[tardy flower]

wait can we get a multi - multi masted schooner? I want this bad boy to have 14 masts and be a quarter mile long

The brig cutter and ketch are all confirmed in game so far

[fossil rover]

Look up the wyoming, was basically that

[unborn cedar]

Good song

[tardy flower]

im active duty navy, been there done that

[somber radish]

basically that, yeah

[unborn cedar]

I was. Now chilling lol

[mild cedar]

Interceptors are indeed classified as a Brig

[fossil rover]

Oof that's rough

[marsh stream]

Wouldn't be an agile pirate in that beast, great for siege of ports tho.

[distant mountain]

Probably a software to unpack it

[tardy flower]

i want a broadside that can wipe out the entire side of cuba in one go

[regal remnant]

JetSkis will be added in future update?

[unborn cedar]

DLC $9.99

[marsh stream]

You're looking at a minimum of 28 pounders and up to heavy Ship of the Line guns then.

[somber radish]

so you want USS IOWA?

idk what its called

[unborn cedar]

https://tenor.com/view/battleship-gif-26936399

[marsh stream]

I will keep to my "Long Nines".

[tardy flower]

[unborn cedar]

Bring back the battleship!!

[fossil rover]

Thought they announced that a month ago or whatever

[split dust]

santisima trinidad

[hard drum]

Well now I'm sad I can't play the demo no more cause this guy broke my keyboard

[unborn cedar]

Yea supposedly but I doubt it honestly. Not worth it unless it’s equipped with rail guns

[tardy flower]

the USS Wisconsin was drifting off the coast of north korea, and a small encampment on the side of a mountain decided to shoot at them with some artillery. the USS Wisconsin did not appreciate that, so they proceeded to DELETE the side of the mountain entirely.

[somber radish]

I bet people are gonna dislike the big ships because of their heavy slowness

I bet Brig or Frigate's gonna be the best ships

[unborn cedar]

https://tenor.com/view/get-outside-coco-lili-lisa-alexandra-get-out-get-out-in-the-streets-gif-26133674

[marsh stream]

These ships would use 12-18 pounders. Or reinforced decking for larger calibers with less cannons.

[regal remnant]

Currently ramming does like 1hp damage

[unborn cedar]

Speed and agility is the way to go

[manic hearth]

How to kill the pirate ship?? They keep murdering my ship

[marsh stream]

I'm looking forward to laying claim to that first heavy laden merchant vessel. Then re-selling the goods back to their own ports or using them.

[fossil rover]

Strongly worded UN resolution

[loud ledge]

Sorry if this has been asked a bunch already, but when I try to join friends on my Steam Deck the game force closes/crashes, it runs quite fine Solo but whether I try to host or join it happens. Any fixes or am I just out of luck for now? Thanks!

[unborn cedar]

https://tenor.com/view/potc-fire-gif-6051908

[wicked comet]

so i found a bell what do i do with it?

[manic hearth]

What does that mean, haha?

[regal remnant]

Go for a Lvl 1 transport ship. Don’t fight interceptors

[fossil rover]

One of my friends is on linux, he can only join my server if I've had it up for a couple minutes before he tries to join. Not the same but might help

[unborn cedar]

Ring it

[wicked comet]

i cant use it in any menus

[manic hearth]

Is there any way to upgrade the cannon???

[regal remnant]

Yes but refer to my last message

[timid crescent]

yes

[unborn cedar]

Build a quick travel point with it

[timid crescent]

what if I want to fight the interceptors, I can't seem to find any rn 🙁

[regal remnant]

They hard. But you will be able to

[manic hearth]

How??? I don't see an upgrade only 2 items

[loud ledge]

I'll try this and see if it helps, maybe I should try running the game windowed in desktop mode as well. Thanks (:

[unborn cedar]

Play injured

[fossil rover]

The workbench where you built the cannons, look at the top bar where it says upgrades. You need to remove the cannons at the wharf and have them in your inventory when you do that

[wicked comet]

ah

[regal remnant]

To kill the pirates on the beach, I jus shot them with my aft cannons

[manic hearth]

Ahh got it thanks

[unborn cedar]

Enemies sunk lol

[bitter ice]

I just finished the demo and i feel sad

[regal remnant]

Did over 3500 damage

[manic hearth]

Does this game crash on you? I keep getting crashes

[unborn cedar]

Great times ahead mate!

[timid crescent]

if you put them in your inventory and interact with the shipright's workshop, you can upgrade them along with the 2 other items you can put on the ship

[regal remnant]

Once in like 14 hours of play

[manic hearth]

Even kill the pirate ship?

[bitter ice]

yup

[timid crescent]

yeah i've killed like a dozen pirate ships

[fossil rover]

Only when boarding in co-op

[manic hearth]

Sweet

[bitter ice]

cant wait

[tardy flower]

the demo isnt over until you get the legendary blackbeard emblem

[unborn cedar]

200 hundred of them

[fossil rover]

What area of the map are you finding interceptors? I've only ever seen transport ships to the North,west, and South

[manic hearth]

I'm low my graphic to medium and my cpu still running mad

[hasty roost]

you know. learning that there's a target lock button makes boarding a lot easier

[solar swift]

anyone else not able to join a friend or start a hosted server?

[tardy flower]

i think they can spawn anywhere, just really low % chance, but level 3 on the map maybe? ive only seen 2 ever

[regal remnant]

Not sure. I think in the areas south west of main play area. But prob anywhere

Shot one with full broadside and did 1% damage. He broadsided me and did half my health. I dipped

[tardy flower]

how do I do a spoiler thing so if i post a picture it has a spoiler warning and has to be clicked on

[fossil rover]

Got to see if I can find one

[regal remnant]

Tap the pic before sending if on mobile

[mild cedar]

Try whichever direction you usually found a lv4?

[regal remnant]

Disabled for this server though

Anyone know what the book icon is for in the ship inventory by cannons and boarding equipment?

[loud ledge]

I'm also having this issue, does your game crash when you try? And are you on Linux/Steam Deck?

[hasty roost]

in addition to that, im curious what this is

[empty marlin]

is there anything i can do with my gear that ive replaced?

[unborn cedar]

Journal?

[unborn cedar]

Another type of crew member maybe. Riflemen?

[hasty roost]

oh maybe!

[timid crescent]

lol what? i destroyed the interceptor I fought, his hits did like 10-15% damage and mine did 15-20% ish to him

did you not upgrade your ship attachments to 180 each?

[regal remnant]

That was my first sail

[open ingot]

a lot of "shipes of the line" were typically frigates.

[regal remnant]

Uhhhhhh you sure?

[open ingot]

frigates back then meant something different than it means now.

[timid crescent]

yeah what do you think the main reason ships went anywhere back then was? trade.

wait that's the main reason ships still go anywhere

[tardy flower]

war

[regal remnant]

I was under the impression that ships of the line were 1st, 2nd, and 3rd class warships

I’m NOT deep into 17th century nautical terminology tbf

[unborn cedar]

Mortars?

[timid crescent]

oh ships of the line, yeah nevermind i am out of my depth in this convo, most ships of the line back then were french gunships

[regal remnant]

Water probably

[timid crescent]

according to le google

[regal remnant]

So not frigates……….

me when I’m right about something

[unborn cedar]

Na I don’t think they gonna make you juggle water. Mortars were in black flag so makes sense

[open ingot]

@regal remnant You can start here for a brief introduction. Leave it to the british to make it confusing as all get-out, of course. but the designs for "ship-of-the-line" were frigates, especially 4-6th rate which were the most common because they were cheaper to construct, maintain, and sail.

[regal remnant]

Weird spot for it though. Next to crew like that. Also why 50 crew then there’s like ~10

[unborn cedar]

True. But could just be a place holder.

[loud tapir]

think thats crew health. Like 50/50 HP

[open ingot]

Then you have the french, spainards, Portuguese, etc. that had their own definitions and classifications. And that's not even touching on the eastern world of ships. It's VERY interesting, but also very complicated, nuanced, and not easy to navigate.

[wicked comet]

hey so how do I plant shrub seeds?

[timid crescent]

you can't plant anything in the demo

[open ingot]

planting/farming is not available in the demo sadly

[loud tapir]

https://tenor.com/view/thats-the-neat-part-you-dont-invincible-gif-27194608

[wicked comet]

oh so just dump them got it

[timid crescent]

you can toss those seeds in the ocean

[open ingot]

or toss em on the ground and dig under it to make them disappear for good

[regal remnant]

Aside from Black Flag, my main naval game has been War Thunder (I hardly played naval and was actually ranked first worldwide in ground realistic a few months ago)

In War Thunder, it shows which percent of your crew is alive.

[wicked comet]

i lack a shovel

[loud tapir]

Then Posieden will take those seeds for his garden

[open ingot]

you will want to craft one sooner than later. Need it for a certain location

[wicked comet]

anyone else having the game freeze when you try to access the bonfire?

[hasty roost]

was even funnier i found one with double M on the outfit

MM = Mortar Man

[tardy flower]

farming crops - so far - may end up with more or less

[hasty roost]

yup.

[mild cedar]

Man, that's gonna be a lot of food...

[tribal osprey]

@hasty roostthank you... any mention of a fix???

[hasty roost]

ive not seen

[lean marten]

mortar man probably worker for alchemy station, to grind herbs for medicine I bet, highly doubt its mortar artillary lol

[unborn cedar]

Ok so there are lime trees! Please let the diamond by the crew diamond be for limes! A lime a day keeps the slurry away!

[tribal osprey]

@hasty roosti left it sit for a bit last night, and it seemed to catch up, but not tonight...

[tardy flower]

its taking some will power to not post pictures of the characters / npcs / creature models

[unborn cedar]

Don’t get banned lol

[tardy flower]

im not going to so heavily step on the devs toes, thats rude

[tardy flower]

exactly

[tribal osprey]

@hasty roostthere... it just figured it out...lol

[tardy flower]

I usually find it fun to build a list of bugs during demos / play tests, but the bugs here are pretty limited honestly. some issues with quest tracking in relation to multi worlds / items. some visual issues but thats probably UR5 issues.

[open ingot]

some of it is ikely UR5 issues. some of it is yet to be explained relating to co-op/multiplayer that the devs are currently trying to figure out

[unborn cedar]

Yea same. Found little things but nothing major….yet

[tribal osprey]

i have the game installed on an HDD... it was maxed out at 100% while the game froze.

[formal wyvern]

How much is windrose on steam?

[honest plover]

Not for sale (yet) .. demo is free

[unborn cedar]

How much did the pirate pay for corn? A buccaneer! Lololol

[tardy flower]

would the devs be mad if someone pirated the game?

[open ingot]

https://tenor.com/view/castle-nathan-fillion-uh-wait-gif-6118864

i found a doctor

[rapid grove]

Do it to Ubisoft games

Not worth the Effort, They are Trash anyways ...... AAAA+ Games so Called

[raven dagger]

can you spoiler any images you post please

[hasty roost]

anddd finally done with D&D

[regal remnant]

Spoilers disabled on here

[brisk lantern]

So food’s gonna have a more adverse effect later on right?

[vivid pier]

I'd be a Waste of Valuable Hard Drive Space

[brisk lantern]

I would love to actually starve in this game and get vitamin C deficiency

[raven dagger]

it is? i see stuff blocked all the time

[brisk lantern]

You mean tencent games now

[wicked comet]

but srly is there not a way to sleep yet?

[unborn cedar]

The a stood for *ss

[open ingot]

noat at this time

[vivid pier]

Ok, Serious Question here, Does anyone Know if we will be able to have MORE Than 4 People in a Lobby ???

We Do LAN Partys still, and have like 7 - 10 People there every Saturday night, We would LOVE to all Join on a Single World

[raven dagger]

guess they want you to interct with the nighttime only npcs

[unborn cedar]

I hope so. 10 would be a good start

[brisk lantern]

Thats crazy how ubisoft sold out ik tencents gonna take care of them but they will never be the same. God willing they bring the life back to the games they used to make

[wicked comet]

i just dont like it cause i cant see anything lol

[unborn cedar]

Lantern

[wicked comet]

i got that but trying to use it as little as possible cause fat

[raven dagger]

would you want it scaled as well? npc difficulty?

[brisk lantern]

I want the ability to at least travel to someone else world(another part of the sea) then find their island something like sea of thieves but without the PVP i guess

[vivid pier]

They wont, Its a Dying Company, When u got Indie Dev's Making Games 100X better for 1/10th of the cost
On top of that u have alot of people [ Myself Included ] Boycotting All Ubi Games, Ill never buy another one again

[brisk lantern]

Or hosted worlds with player count slider would be awesome too

[raven dagger]

thats kind of what they pivoted away from

[unborn cedar]

Na wouldn’t have to. Just let ppl get together and have fun

[wicked comet]

Yeee that would be cool or visiting ports like tortuga raid forts etc

[brisk lantern]

Ahh too much to start with or is it just a bad idea overall for the game?

[rapid linden]

i mean from what it looks like there will be online servers

[raven dagger]

the mmo lite shared world part, i guess sot isnt that though so never know in the future

[vivid pier]

Its a bad idea, ALot of people want a PvE Experiance, Maby once they go live they MAY add Server owners to alllow PvP. Not alot of info out there

[brisk lantern]

I only buy em on sale and honestly i only have assassins creed odyssey and assasins creed 3 bundle i cant even name any other ubisoft games i have other than state of decay and the division

[raven dagger]

he did say without pvp

[rapid linden]

I dont see why they wouldnt allow the option for multiplayer servers. It is, yknow. Optional.

[vivid pier]

Im Blind ---- Ill Walk the Plank

[unborn cedar]

Get black flag! Best one

[hasty roost]

i invited a couple friends and was surprised that that there isnt like a "party" system or "add them to camp" type thing.

plus, might be nice to occassionally shoot my friend LOL

[brisk lantern]

True that horrible idea a optional pvp option would help alot , i myself dont like pvp that much

[twilit orbit]

Hi i watched @Neebsgaming playing this yesterday. looks interesting, i just downloaded the DEMO, is it single player friendly or should i grab a few friends and play it....

[rapid linden]

singleplayer friendly

[twilit orbit]

Thanks Kansei

[brisk lantern]

This is the one i was supposed to buy but i bought the bundle , 2 games for the price of one plus i think black flag is after assassin creed 3 canonically so i gotta play that again first

[rapid linden]

ive finished everything in the demo and havent played with anyone else

[vivid pier]

Same, When i was in my 20s Early 30s Maby, I Have Pivoted away from PvP As i get older XD

[unborn cedar]

Fun either way!

[honest plover]

I would say it is balance around singple player (at least the demo)

[brisk lantern]

True that😂 every once in a while ill try out a game like marvel rivals then im donee

[twilit orbit]

that makes sense from what i saw with @neebsgaming it looked they could create a crew by rescuing them

[vivid pier]

i play That one some, Only afew matches and my Blood Pressure is Sky High

[brisk lantern]

Im only 25 man so im just burned out im tired of getting finger blasted by some camper all the time

[unborn cedar]

I think it’s smart to go PvE. Sea of Thieves has slowly pivoted away from PVP. Guess ppl don’t like me rolling up and blasting them to Davy jones locker while they loot a fort lol

[brisk lantern]

At least in rivals if your teammates aren’t lobotomized you can actually enjoy the game i put like 50 hours in a whole week before i actually just stopped playing

[brisk lantern]

No seriously show some self restraint

[vivid pier]

i Enjoy my Survival Games, I Can pop on dilly dally around and Casually Build Pointlessly LARGE buildings

[unborn cedar]

I can’t help it! I see a ship and I just gotta sink it. It’s a sickness!

[brisk lantern]

This games gonna be better anyways if they add ancient pirate magic and runes and stuff

[stuck vortex]

Finished the demo and man, I can't wait to play more of this.

[vivid pier]

I Played SCUM Alot, Prob is once u get so far in, It gets Boring. Like most games, Still one of if not the BEST Zombie game out there

[brisk lantern]

Im tellin you man i made so many friends so fast, mods are always cool, people are helpful i definitely gotta hop back on but i mostly played it when i had my days now this new job i work overnight so

possible mortars?

[somber radish]

all the ships :0

[quick canyon]

is there anywhere else to get the rough hides...or JUST boars?

[mild cedar]

Just boars.
Sows, Normal Boars, Charging Boars, and Savage Boars

[quick canyon]

do they respawn I can't tell yet

[mild cedar]

Yep

[rapid linden]

anything should respawn assuming its not in the radius of a bonfire

[hasty roost]

really sucks we dont have at least one way to plant the seeds.

potatoes not fun to search for lol

[open ingot]

trees do not respawn sadly

[rapid linden]

you sure? I could have sworn some respawned for me, just not if i cut them down in the radius of my bonfire

[open ingot]

100 positive. blue names and devs confirmed trees do not respawn

[somber radish]

Okay, guys.

when the EA comes out, which will be soon, what do you guys say, that we form the British Empire

[rapid linden]

ah

[open ingot]

Feb 29th

[somber radish]

29th of Feb? for what :v

[open ingot]

Devs talked about it the other day here. They disabled tree respawning because it was causing a lot of issues with UR5 back end

[hasty roost]

heh. i love the 29th of febuary joke

[somber radish]

no... I don't think so... unless a shadow drop, but chances of that being that is like really low

[timid crescent]

stop lying @open ingot we all know it's coming out february 30th

[somber radish]

okay, ya'll need to stop lol

[open ingot]

Do you get the Feb 29th joke?

[rapid linden]

i forgot that the 29th of feb doesnt exist

[somber radish]

Listen I don't look at my calendar

[hasty roost]

damn. i think a spot where i found potatos at isnt respawning now

[river heron]

It actually does. Every 4 years.

[open ingot]

I can't hear you

[somber radish]

eye eye captain

[open ingot]

Seriously though, I cannot. (Check the username)

[somber radish]

see I don't look into my calender

[brisk lantern]

Im not gonna lie the starting armor needs some defense imagine being the poor sap who gets sent into the jungle to get some hides only to get one shot by a boar

[open ingot]

tbf that's a skill issue

[brisk lantern]

It only took me 4 tries and they were not pretty even with thr coconut

I was getting jumped though i was fighting one and two more showed up

This game is actually funny so the last boar got away. And i ended up finding the mf like 30 minutes later after i already crafted armor an he was still injured so i knew it was him

[honest plover]

While the game isnt PvP, they put some effort into providing a similar experiance, If you listen closely you can hear the boar calling you a noob.

[brisk lantern]

If you open your eyes after it kills you you can also hear him running away

[open ingot]

good thing I'm deaf then. I don't have to put up with that

[hasty roost]

reminds me of something hilarious from D&D that gave the same vibes

[past zenith]

appologys in advance if this question has been asked a million times lol but has there been any info about when it might move into next phase? super happy with whats been shown here and looking forward to any upcoming addons/updates!

[open ingot]

Feb 29th

[brisk lantern]

Thats a nice feature though enemies you damage dont just heal up instantly or even 10-15 minutes later they seem to just stay injured an they wander also

Would be a nice game feature to have npc pirates that loot your dead body then run away and you gotta track them down

[somber radish]

https://giphy.com/gifs/assassinscreed-ocean-black-flag-assassins-creed-4n7ZPjBvcczZIJLDQE

I actually like that. add it to #1298615271686279208

[somber radish]

this is gonna be pvp fr

[rich haven]

I wish my joystick didnt crash the game every 2 secs. They gotta fix that asap. 😭

[open ingot]

controller support is not available yet. They're still working on the core game

[brisk lantern]

My controller seems to work fine it just glitches in the menus and inventory but actual controller support feels solid

[rich haven]

Joystick works it just crashes in inventory menus. Im switching between the 2.

[brisk lantern]

Hope mines doesnt start that either cuz mines glitches in every menu

[somber radish]

I feel like that would be annoying yet fun. lol

[honest plover]

Ark has some animals that will steal stuff from you .. One of the most annoying mechanics EVER !!

[brisk lantern]

It be a pirates life for me 😂 i also added to the suggestions that it be a random item like maybe ur lantern or your bandages he wouldnt just take everythinggg

Now if its pvp yea expect your stuff to be completely looted

[brisk lantern]

Basically the equivalent of calling in a mugger in gta online

[somber radish]

why not just add gollum instead /j

[rich haven]

Im sorry I cant play this without joystick. combat requires perfect timing, and im not killing my pinky for this game. So full joystick support asap please.🤣 🥺

[brisk lantern]

What is that

[rapid linden]

i wouldnt mind taming but only like livestock and domestication side and not full on ark level stuff lol

[brisk lantern]

Oh thats actually a good idea

[somber radish]

lord of the rings?

[honest plover]

https://tenor.com/view/configuration-gif-23786559

[brisk lantern]

Good idea make sure he comes out at night time make it even more annoying

Like your fighting undead and he just steals ur stuff and disappears into the void

[timid crescent]

It's a demo. It doesn't support controllers/joysticks. Sorry bro

[brisk lantern]

You got motion blur on or something?

[vestal cypress]

we haven't been booted from self-hosted server yet 🤷‍♂️

[brisk lantern]

Or did you try turning off anti aliasing or frame gen or something maybe thats whats causing it to crash in the menus idk

Outside of inventory and menu’s i really sont have issues but everyones computer is different

[rotund horizon]

Dying for more…

Like genuinely devastated I finished the quests

[raven dagger]

April/may isn't far away....

[hasty roost]

yea i was quite surprised to find that boarding that ship was the end of the demo

[raven dagger]

Kind of wraps up the demo nicely, lil taste of everything

Well core things

[marsh stream]

Has anyone solo or with allies taken down an Interceptor yet & what was the cargo?

[mild cedar]

Blackbeard Captain Insignia is one

I think i've got Iron Steel nails & Master combat repair kit too

[marsh stream]

Was expecting something a bit more honestly. Iron Nails not Steel ?

[mild cedar]

Oh yeah, Steel nails the one "from the homeland"

[dim trail]

iron? how tf u got iron? xd

[mild cedar]

It also has assorted loot, but not really of much use for now.

[dim trail]

and btw, are you able to get riod of the threat on Coastal Jungle?

[mild cedar]

Doesn't exist in the Demo

[sterile sapphire]

[peak radish]
