Bqbinks tout le ;onde
i never played SOT 2, when i saw it, i didnt like it
a compass is actualy a solid idea
i know megan gets a lot of sh!t in family guy, but she is one of my favorite characters in that show.
sot needs a sea-quell too
I love this, you're implying people are trying to make a pirate game into a pirate game 
i was thinking compass, because we could also customize our compass.
i like the idea of having certain items that are fully customizable in games.
mila kunis is great in general
so not just clothing or character, but items customization is nice. similar to ship customization.
definitely lol
are you still in the game - i can give you 20 wood 😛
Lmao nahh its fine I got it covered lol. Alls fair in love and Piracy
Ironically I was only on that server to raid it for stone lmao
yea i dont think they've specified anything about it other thatn us getting one
The picture looks like a decoration and thought I read it
That being said, a physical spyglass would be cool. Unless outside of just having one to use, but cool nonetheless lol. Same for a physical compass.
Does this game have controller support ?
you can use controller- some people say its janky though so eyes open
Will Windrose be released at the end of 2026? Because GTA6 is just around the corner and I'm worried that if GTA6 comes out before Windrose, they'll lose viewers.🥺
feel like well get windrose before gta6
any gAme wont release that month but the release will be EA not 1.0
Think every game will lose "viewers" but it'll be fine
My concern is that if they release Windrose after GTA6, they won't get the players they're looking for and will see the game as a failure, deleting it or letting it die. This has happened to many games that are released right after a highly anticipated game and end up being deleted because they don't attract players. This worries me a lot because Windrose shows a lot of promise and I want it to be successful.😭
it needs to be useable
GTA has never been released for PC on launch. It's always console first then PC 1 year later.
You're telling the wrong guy mate
well windrose wont be 1.0 a yr or so maybe more so they can make the player base up
perhaps thats an item we can take on and off the rack though. so who knows
And it looks like it could be i just assumed it was a decoration
i mean i am not and never have been a gta player, also EA release is different, it doesnt necessarily need to be timed to avoid other releases.
if they were releasing a full game, maybe
Doesn't look fixed
Does anyone know if they plan to do pets like monkey or parrots?
I want to design my own jolly roger...js
Really depends on how long it's in EA though. By the time 7 Days to die actually "releases" I had kinda moved on already. The release had no real significance anymore
With 1 million wishlists i think the game will be fine regardless of outside noise, just a quarter of this discord would make it a success and I honestly can't think of any games that had alot of hype and died just after release because of another games success
I was arguing with a friend about GTA and Windrose, and he told me that if Windrose doesn't finish launching until the end of 2026, they'll lose so many players who want GTA 6 that they'll end up shutting down the game if that happens. :/
Maybe dont listen to your friend anymore 😆
ok ok :3
I could care less about gta6 personally
Again guys, It's releasing for PS5 and Xbox. PC won't be coming until 2027.
GTA 6 or Windrose? I didn't understand.
Your friend doesn't sound very intelligent.
GTA is totally irrelevant to Windrose, IMHO. Different platform, different target audience.
definitely gta6
GTA6... They have NEVER released for PC on launch. It's always been over 1 year later before they release for PC
windrose will be pc for awhile
Windrose is only for PC rn.... I'm not sure how you could confuse these
even if there was another good survival game, id still get windrose, and maybe even that other survival game. what stops me from getting 2 good games, i dont get it? if its money then i will just delay getting the game that releases second for a bit until i have the money.
Long story short, windrose will be fine tell your friend Mick said so
Yeah taking the GTA6 launch into account is just pointless for the Windrose devs.
how rare is the boar head drop?
It can be pretty rare, it's pure RNG
My only concern was that Windrose was losing players because of GTA 6, that's all.
oof
It wont 👍
I'm exceedingly picky about games. There's basically nothing else I'm aware of that I'm particularly interested in right now. Just want Windrose. Preferably sooner rather than later.
Why don't you let the devs concern themselves with stuff that isn't going to matter to us gamers
it may lose players but once the hype dies down folks will return
thx for the info
Np
Question....do PC owners own a console as well? I never have since PS2
Same
Er, I have a ps3, never use it though
Random post...
GTA6 wont release until November this year, providing Rockstar doesnt push it again which is likely they do. But even then Windrose has a lot of hype right now and I do agree that if left months without word or EA release the hype will die down. But GTA6 wont be the cause of the hype dying down
Nah, they trash 😂
i got an xbox
The beast
Not to mention it's releasing for an entirely different platform than Windrose.
My last console was an Xbox 360...
Yeah so windrose wouldn't really be affected by a console launch (gta6) this is a silly conversation tbh 😆
Exactly
so me and a friend played together before on my server and now even when im in it, it tells him server not found. any idea?
I'm sure there are a few not so bright that would gladly buy a console just to play GTA earlier... when those consoles are more expensive than they've ever been and probaly cost more when it comes out
but still, shouldn't affect most of the PC focused games
Has there been any mention of price?
imo its prob going to be between 40usd to 65 usd. but that's my personal expectation. it has no backing in any decernable facts.
its shaping up to be everything i wished atlas was
For an early access survival game? AS much as $65 USD? I highly doubt that.
20-30usd
significantly higher than 40 would make the price fairly uncompetitive. Valheim is at 20€, RS Dragonwilds 30€
If they see this through, it'll be a bargain at any price. Countless hours will be spent here lol
no for full release
forgot the name of another game but think it was 30 or 35
Well it's not going to be full release for at least what, a year maybe 2? It's going into early access this year, and I'm pretty sure that's what Spugelo was asking about.
Ill guess the price for full release after 1000hrs of the EA
i also think 20€ for EA with optional founder's edition or some other packages up to 40/45€ maybe? i dunno
Yea, was thinking about early access price, that is usually a bit lower than full release price
ohhhhhh if i were any denser id be a rock
Seems like Voyagers of Nera was $30 on EA
so my ship sunk but the warf wont let me respawn, am i doing something wrong?
Do you have 20 wood?
tbh id def pay for a founders edition. i mean it couldnt recive any worse tretment than ark lol
lmao true
yup. doesnt even give me an option. i died on the mission because my crew got in the way, i cant even summon it, or repair it
Don't get me wrong, the game looks great and in general seems high quality game, but even then it would be a bit hard to try ask more than what competing games are asking. It would definitely work once the game has gained a reputation from proving itself a great purchase
just says "only active next to bonfire" but its close enough cuz i cant put down another bondifre
yea tbh i'm ready to insta buy whatever top package they'll offer lol but i'm biased tho i just love this setting/pirate themed
true, but i havent seen buzz around a survival game like this in almost a decade
Well if it says "only active next to bonfire" that means it's probably not close enough to a bonfire and isn't functioning
my fasdt travel right next to it is
Fast travels don't need bonfires.
there's been a huge gap for pirate theme game for a while , sot kinda filled that for a bit but not as ... "cozy" as this one yknow what i mean?
exactly
Valheim has quite a lot of it every time they release a big update. It's getting close to a full release too as far as I know
ok so i cant move it further back, but i cant put a bonfire any closer. wtf is this
you must have moved the bonfire away from it to work on something. Move the bonfire back.
you hav to destroy the current bonfire
then place the bonfire closer to the warf
yeah, just removed bonfire to get it closer and now the doctor has dissapeared
you can just resettle him
E the bonfire, settle the doctor
Im starting to think IM the one that spells wharf wrong now
it may lag for a long moment when you E the bonfire, thats normal, its a bug
bonfire looked so cool in my camp, now its in the woods, im entirely sad over this
wait is this game out yet im confused
you can move it back after, but you'll lose functionality of your wharf again lol
yes thats teh problem
Only a demo right now.
have you tried making a light house with the bonfire yet? it looks amazing comming into port
no all there is currently is a demo that consists of 5% of the game
i dont think im there yet
for pirate kind of games there is definitely a huge gap... there just hasn't anything since black flag that has got my attention. But gotta keep in mind that it's a mix between survival/land base building and naval combat, so it's pretty likely it will attract people who enjoy games like Valheim and such survival games
I heard it was 2.5%! lol
when is the release date? steam has a feb date listed
I will be doing this at my base in the full game.
oh nvm i was looking at the demo page my b
it's 2.5% of the world, 5% of the gameplay
No date. Steam shows no date for me.
April 31st or Tomorrow
Let’s round it out to 3.25% lol
is the feb date for the demo itself or the actual game
Yes, we're all at this point.
yea true , i also like that it's not entirely offline , from what i know there's suppose to be a social hub where you hop from your server to that and you can see other player's ship but im not sure how much of that will transit over EA if anything
dont you get my hopes up lol
I definitely am lol. Looking for the kickstarter for the whale bonuses
Current knowledge of release date is "2026".
more than what most parents do!
i was looking at the demo date my b
I know a dev said 2.5% of explorable world but that means there will be 120 islands, I feel thats not right but happy to be wrong unless you take the size of the island into account but even then.... 🤔
to quote 50cent "ive been patiently waiting"
they stated that the sea ALSO counts as explorable world, NOT just islands
Yeah idk it does sound like a lot but if they say it I'm gonna believe it until I have a reason not to hehe
Speak for yourself. I've been impatiently waiting!
me patiently waiting
That makes more sense but still looking at the amount of sea in game now and times that by 40..... map will be HUGE
No, that's Star Citizen...
And it should be!
As a citizen, can confirm
I havent checked map size of this game, however a similiar themed game World of Sea Battles has a pretty massive map as well but makes it feel fluid
I'm waiting for more games at the same time than I've ever before... each game I'm waiting for but not coming out yet is more pain 🫠
My original account has a golden ticket for the SxSW launch in 2012...
me wanting a key to closed version
I'm excited for GTA6 but I'm waiting for the PC release which is gonna be 2027 at the earliest... ugh
i read sxsw as something totally unrelated im sure
Oh im here for it, just the alpha definitely wasn't that big but maybe they've expanded alot since then 👍
Great Demo so far, looking forward to the full release 
At least you'll get to experience the real intended version of the game when playing for first time
@surreal sierra
yup. been keeping you covered
Does capitalization help?
True, Rockstar does do a lot of QA before releasing
You're welcome!
lol spengbab
Wait, tomorrow never comes 😞
I been busy building
relatable
EA wait has me so angsty that im about to start listening to divorced dad rock
ive spent the last 30mins using the shovel.
to make a windrose joke
that's dedication
using the shovel? i know right
one thing id love is being able to bury a treasure chest
will it serve any purpose probably not.... but i feel the neeed
I wish you could break down old equipment / gear
or at least get rid of it
And id love to dig that chest up, I mean a chest up
Each destroy item needs to be a thing
can we at least destroy it?
yeah being able to deconstruct and gain some mats back would be great
or throw everything into the sea like Taylor Swift does
I just tossed it in the ocean
break down is better, and get all the resources it costs to craft it back.'
curently the only way is to drop it on the ground and use the shovel on the area
you ever see my first base there's just going to be a pile of trash next to the fast travel post
I'd be happy with even a portion of them.
Id say it will be in ea as it was in playtest
which is bloody stupid, means the devs never thought about old gear
it's a demo
It's a thing just not in demo
the function you're thinking of probably is already put into the main game
ahhh stealing the cannon tech i seeee
huh just now figured out u can refill the lantern
promethius must be punished
find it easier to build torches in the mines, they are always lit
fair enough
pro-me-thee-us
hello everyone
no more likely they didn't want to waste more time and development on the demo, which is fine as it is.
why do i feel like i should make a techno quote cause of that word?
sorry, i like to live dangerusly. im dsylexic and refuse to turn spell check on lol
If people say warf 20 times a day promethius is fine
phonetics OP im tellin ya
Build Build Build me Harty's!!
yo ho a builders life for me
looks like the perfect place for a dollar general
considering loot, gaining loot and managing resources is a basic part of a survival game, you would think that would be in the demo...
no , you wouldn't, because it's a DEMO.
i mean its soft survival
that and its like 5% of the total game
yes, you wold because a demo is to show off what the game has, or have you forgot what demo means
Yooooooooooooooo
you are infact, entitled to your wrong opinion
does anyone know a fix for my friend getting an unexpected error when trying to join my game
just gonna have to agree to disagree
try having him host see if its a connection issue or just his pc
you actually do get a PEEK into that- 3 entire sorts of material is actually EXCESSIVE in logistical standards
wildlife looks amazing is this but woods need more animals wildlife 🙂
Yes but no, I had to change the design slightly to fit the spacing but from far away they look fine
this demo was released after a major design aspect shift.
It's more of a demo of "hey, we felt the last design concept (MMORPG) was too much, we want to bring it down to something more manageable and this is a demonstration of what we're thinking. What do you think?"
cool
is anybody here old enough to remember when gaming magazines came with demo discs you could install a bunch of demos with
well done mate. that looks good
can always gate off the bottleneck so its not seen as much up close/ discourage close foot traffic
not old enough for that sounds pretty cool tho
brother get out of my head I was literally just thinking about that
raises hand slowly
old enough to remember playing games on pc with a cassette drive
i remember getting CDs from fast food places and stuff too
hold your horses on your aggression my guy. and no, the title Demo can be given for multiple reasons
reason A: free trail of the game
reason B: Alpha test
this brings back memories🤣
I am in fact also old. Used to play alot of Tony Hawk and Tomb Raider 2 just the demo
i used to go to gamestop and buy the demo discs ^~^
cassette drive? i think you mean floppy.
the music ones?
no. i mean cassette drive
id love a social island with maybe a specific pvp zone around areas or an arena concept. but the shift away from a pvp mmorpg was a great call
I got to find my old Midway arcade disc for PS2
cassette drives were in use up until not all that long ago but usually called tape drives
i have a sega in my basement
some gave video games also
yeah we had a sell our old machines a while ago
you ar enot old enough to remember,
#retrocomputing
still in use my partner made me a mix tape
never got the game ones but got a lot of music related ones
I think we still have an original Pac-Man machine in the garage but it's likely buried
combat in windrose sucks 100%. Doesnt have any impact when u hit AI. Its like fighting with toothpicks
my brain likes to skip words when i read, so i read "still in use partner" which was hilarious
Bro im so old i dont remember remembering....and I played Atari and saw star wars at the movies
skill issues
it is an option
Never thought when I downloaded this demo it would lead to 30 hours of playing and running🤣🤦♂️ Loving it so far! Can't wait for more!
How come people are so amazing with their creations
guess not
When I can't even make a nice looking house 😭
blocking gets u staggered eventually. No finesse with and impact when blocking. it just feels u fighting in the Air
the rapier gives that 100%- the haliberd is a bit more tolerable from the wider swing
like the old TI-99/4a
Maybe parry
hit and dodge dude
i have several weapons and i kill AI easely. no problem
again, skill issues
My first game machine was a Sinclair ZX81. You got monthly magazines with the game in BASIC and entred i on tape via it's tiny keyboard...🤣
Make sure to put your experience on #1298615271686279208 and be thorough with what you're experiencing so devs can take a look
i've noticed that attacking 4 times then blocking reset the attack combo. because if you do the full 5 attack combo, there's a big "cooldown" between attacking again
Saber
but i say. it feels werry bad because of no impact
yup before my time, first computer I had was a 286 or 386
I have decided to try to build a harbor after seeing some builds I'm super intimidated lol
But gets staggered eventually lol
@fringe fableyeah will do
just finished my dining area🤣
halibard staggers ^~^
once again it's a demo you're not going to fight anything other than the super early enemies not to mention most the mechanics have already evolved past the demo on the actual version of the game that is in development
@raven daggerdo i really have to explain every step for u to understand?
he is full off
, he doesnt know how parry and stager works in the game
Could you?
thoughts on the range of powder based wepons? i think its just a tad to short by maybe 10%%
He obviously doesnt
thank you for that
Mine was a Vectrex
the first video game i play was star trek by mark mayfield, written in basic'
stagger your enemy by parrying them so there schields above there head are all gone
im a bit young mine was a windows 95 pc to play battlefield 1942 and c&c
i have some fond and annoyed memories of playing MUDS lolz
Just remember playing commodore 64 and Atari and apple 11es were at school 👍
and use CTRL to dodge or jump back
I think the first game I played was some kind of donkey Kong on N64
forget what i said u dont understand what i ment.
Wow, you guys have conjured up quite a game. Respect!
Now “all” you have to do is release it xD
Take your time 🙂
i forgot the name of the typing game we were made to play :[
your the one with the skill issue and then complain the game scks...
DK64 was one of my favorite games. I wanna play DK Bananza becaue ive been dying for an donkey kong game like DK64
i dont agree with you. think what you think.
i shouldve tried harder 😭
anyone know how to get that book thing in ship gear?
We had some graphics game/program that was like a spirograph and taipan? A pirate game ironically
it's not in t the demo
not in the demo
ah thanks
Coordinates X: 219 Y:322, dig deep
it's not in the demo, but it's Naval tactics. different ship buffs for playstyles
no, you cant just make up stuff about the game thats only in your imagination and then go spread that lie in the discord community
lol. stop taking drugs man.
I'm the only one that thought the NPC was falling off the ship when he mounted the outernet
thats an offence of the rulles
Just ignore lil bro mate
just go to sleep
dude, they put certain rules in place so they can have an environment that is suitable for all ages. try not to get the channel in trouble
why did i get slowmode lol
chats been on slowmode for a long time
Show mode is enabled for everyone but mods.
Chats always in slow mode
guess im just a bit slow for not noticing
devs nerfed you ig
i knew drinking in my 20s was a bad idea lol
it's ready
👀
GUY'S I NEED HELP I CAN'T FIND THE TREASURE CHEST
Oh dear
i have spent the last hour doing that prep for the joke
just told him to take a nap. whats wrong with that 🙂
Read the note
Did you read the note? /s
IM NEW, is there a chance to download the game?
I got a feeling you know exactly where it is but this is the natural response to this quest lol
ppl in feedback getting actual mad and disappointed devs are not responding on there post? where has the world gone too 🤣 why does every one need to feel special these days🤣
amazing 😆
Demo is available on steam
Hey I'm special
oh yea. 100hours in. its a common question to get.
so i felt like making a joke about it.
yeah theres a hidden tresure chest witha code for the closed beta. its on tortuga
Devs are very busy working on the game
i hope early access no more than 30 USD that's all i manged to save for it
i can help ofcourse 😛
nah the game is dead, devs abandoned the demo or something idk.. pretty sure that's it.. something like that /s
#windroseisdead
is there an option or way to turn off the hud?
press the "/" button if your using a QWERTY keyboard
/
/ button
i legit love you all ty
/
You type fast
ty imma try find it
crap who send me a request to colab on a video? lol i deleted the message and dont know who it was... i get over welming messages... soo sorry but yeah i could yes collab !
I like being redundant and answering questions other people have already answered as a meme
good luck 😂
Did you read the note?
yeaaa but it also means that i very often type the same word multiple times or swap letters somehow. like in an earlier comment i typed "c aommon" instead of "a common" somehow
its demo only rn homie g
Anyone know how I release the prisoners?
hopping the devs remember some countrys us a azerty keyboard, cant re-keybind the Q for ship inventory and chest dump atm 🤡
Talk to them.
there's a note!?? WHERE"S THIS TREE
they're considered release when you interact with them, though you won't visually see it until you finish the ship
Yeah interact with the cages and talk to them, it won't show an animation of them leaving, but if you talk to them it counts
the not says its burryd at a tree marked with a red rag around it
Nice one boys will test it now
i cant believe i spent 30 hours ingame .... in a demo
its a dead tree close to the litle camp
SPOILERS
when the meme is too true
omg hahahaha
AND THERE WE ARE
❤️
everywhere except where you needed
-# almost like it was done on purpose for a joke!
well im still laughing about it haha
yea that needs to be the official windrose meme for tutorial island
whats extra funny is that i actually RAISED the ground around the tree before i dug out the rest of this massive area
Did you read the note?
on the real tho..... we need like 1000 flags to choose from to put on our ships
can't even see the red flag on the tree lolz
LOL I thought you did that on purpose!
image even better than my 2 funni death videos from a dodo bird or from loading screen into a pirate camp and dying soon as I can see my character
So... my / key does nothing , is that a common issue ?
hahaha yep. reallly had to drive in the joke with how exaggerated the terrain is
have you tried surviving?
oh and being slaughtered after finally finding clay that one gets me crackin too
you can try it urself on 500% difficulty tell me how it goes
ez.. I'll just survive duh
i cleaned my 3rd island completely- i can see the clay reserves from my highway in the sky
i've dug everywhere i swear
/lolz
for real tho is there any way to get iron tools
diggi diggi hole
Not in the demo.
not in the demo, you can use your ships cannons to mine the sulfer but you can't do anything with it anyway
i need more powder!
fight the pirates on the shores
Farm pirates and use extra worlds to farm chests.
alright. well setting up that joke and the image was the last hour or so of my time. so back to woodcutting i guess
the only way gathering goes easyer is with the ring
need help choppin?
and here's my clay clip
Chainshot is also a good wood gathering method
Having natural earthen defenses around your port is actually smart, saves on resources.
Ahoy From Trinidad West Indies.... been playing the Demo...it's very good!
local pirate discovered clay, local dodo bird disapproved of this
yea i hadnt tried that method much yet. but i did need to do that to remove some sulfer from my joke area
even the trees hate me
be sure to use the one thats the same key as the "?" not the one on the numpad
can't believe they gave us a little tester, get us addicted and then make us wait for more
like, i definitely dont mind resource donations. lol.
Dreamz has already donated like 12k stone
i feel that
i am trying , still nothing
yeah ''little'' tester XD
where and how
US keyboard?
are you on a QWERTY keyboard?
yes
not sure, it removes the hud, and is not a configurable keybind in the demo. Is it a US qwerty keyboard?
the next best thing is go in build mode > demolish and "V" to change your view point to high.
In EA, I'll dig into the island to start building my port.
i remember the day when someone asked me if i had a qwerty keyboard and i didn't know wtf that was for longest time QQ
Be sure to create a https://discord.com/channels/1260209458924224542/1298615153209638942 for the issue as well
no way LOL
better than me as a stupid american figuring there was only "one" keyboard layout lol, and other languages would just have secondary characters on a US keyboard
anyone have any good survival craft recs?
i typically get my wood by world hopping then bring it back to my main world. Like Dreamz lets me visit their world to pickup their supply load
ugh. getting hungry. gotta make soemthing to eat
i tried the ? button , the numpad one , and the one next to 1 , it's a corsair k55 , is there a config file i can look to see ? like how do you guys came up with the / button ?
Then there's the left-hand ppl dealing with WASD defaults
learn to be ambi lol
have they tried not being wrong handed?
and i ask myself, what keys do they use for movement then i never met a left-hand pc player in my life. My sister was left-handed but she died when I was 13 and before we had a computer. This was about 26 years ago
I was kinda forced to be. Lefty by nature, but they stuck a pencil in my right hand. Now I'm ambi, but have certain tasks that are best done with a specific hand and it's split between them. Still very useful in many situations to be ambi.
It should be the ? key on that keyboard without holding shift. I learned about it when someone in discord mentioned in during the playtest last year. I am not sure of a config file to change it.
my fathers best friend's mom was left handed and she just used everying "normal" without updating the computers settings. When I told her about it she was like "well now I'm already used to it so just leave it alone"
they can mirror the keyboard but then theres the remapping q-] w-[ e-p
lol that made me realize why some of my friends are so bad at gaming
skill issues lolol
i want to play this game
is it out yet?
same, precision tasks are my left hand strength tasks are my right hand
Would Tortuga have a Governor or would be overseen by Pirate Council?
There's two absolutes, right and wrong.. so if you're not right handed... then you're WRONG oooooh burn /s
does anyone find they just enter the demo and sail on their ship and cycle through songs, as a way to cope for the game not being out yet? or its just me?
just you sailor
Mine aren't so clearly delegated. I functioned right handed for so long that it's been a process transferring some things back over.
nascar turns left so thats the correct direction imo
left aint right 😂
There's your problem.. you like nascar, it's all about formula drift now old man
DILLIGAF about your opinion?
no good quotes from formula drift
the last "good quote" from nascar was like 100 years ago.. talmbout "praise dale raise hell" havin
Dakar Rally or go home!
ok 56 hours into the demo and I'm calling it. I can't keep going lol
Im at 80 and I can still feel my fingers and toes
I had a pretty rad build brewing but the build and resource grind is getting stale for me lol
" I aint lettin of the gas till i see a checkered flag or god "
try duplicating your save
and then transferring the materials over
should be very possible. you make a new world, see how its named and organized in the file system. then just copy and paste your original save there and name it the same?
Yes, every day that baboon is alive is a sad day.
the character is a separate save, so you can transfer items through your character.
you were the pvp teammate in ark weren't you lol
Never played it
neeeewb
tell you whhhhaaaat if this game makes some $$$$$ the devs should do a medievil survival craft game .....
Conservative numbers:
At $20 per EA purchase and only 1/4 of the million wishlists purchasing, that's still $5 million...
Any word on dedicated servers through steam? Would love to test that out too.
Impressive numbers going only in a straight line on a smooth road, in the case of that Rocket 3...
prob going to use a nitrido id imagine most games of the genre do
I meant for hosting at home... not paying someone else to run a server when I got 'em laying around... LOL
Dedicated servers for EA, not for demo. I'll be hosting at home myself.
I am sure it will use steamcmd, once EA comes out
LOL "server" is such a vague term... we talking 15 year old desktop PCs mostly
I have a reasonably modern mini-pc I host games on. Currently have Valheim, Enshrouded, and Conan Exiles hosted on it. All for a small group, so they're never all populated at the same time.
Yeah same here, but usually Rust, Valheim, and moded Minecraft
Hey! New here
Soo excited for this game
got any ram
Anyway, EA is tomorrow, right... RIGHT!? PLEASE!!!
I wish...
man if ea was tommorow id suck d for bus money and walk home ...
no word on EA yet, they will post in the news section
Also, if you didn't know, you can "mine" sulfur with cannon fire, but somebody didn't put any recipes in for it...
Some recipes that seem like oversights were excluded because they broke things when they were included in the demo.
I understand, I'm still disappointed, but I understand...

im stuck playing stelaris for the 2000th hour till ea comes outr
Go on...
If you are pansexual, do you basically screw anything?
What in the world are you on about?
I just clicked Natalias profile and it says pansexual, I was just wondering
no im not into pots... only pans
i walk away for a moment and come back to this lmfao
Im glad you put your pronouns in your actual name, or I would have been confused
I wouldnt want to offend anyone
so im just curious does the demo end aftter you get the ship fixed or do you have to do the tutorial missions to advance
He's the Pirate Queen (She/her)
FRFR
technically the "demo" ends after you successfully board a boat from the islander quests.
but you can continue to play afte that!
You can continue to play with yourself after the demo
auto mod just blocked my non problematic comment lol
and then log back into the game... wait
auto mod blocks even the simplest profanities
ive not even made it that far i just got to the part where it says i need a bigger boat
Downloading demo now 🥳
hey im new to the game, quick question how do i obtain clay?
My friends and I have been playing with each other after the demo ended... was that intended...
looks like muddy patches near the shore (in the grass)
need a pickaxe to get
all i said was ive seen some handsome men with mommy milk ers
thanks!
Also by friends, they're my siblings... so we might have other problems...
depends where you're from
If you;re from Alabama or Somalia, you're good
yes you can continue multiplayer after you "complete" the demo.. BUT some people have been having random issues with multiplayer in general, so it may abruptly stop working after eveyone loggs off, not sure why. There's some possible fixes out there
Ah, we've been able to load it back up and rejoin together, but we also all completed the quest together on this game so maybe that's part of it?
it's a little more complicated than that tbh, sometimes resetting a router works, sometimes even more involved.. it's weird
do you mean closer to the forest
Did you unplug and plug your router back in?
instructions unclear, touched the thermostat
That could work
Did you try shutting off your main power breaker?
Shut down the power grid in my state, didn't know that was in MY house.. but I guess it is
Hm, I've not seen those issues since finishing the demo, if there is anything I can attempt to recreate for a bug report I'd be happy to break things for science.
wait a minute... did you find the chest from the note that talks about the red ribbon without joining discord?
Yeah
Yes.
THIS GUY CAN READ?!?!?! WALK THE PLANK!!!!
Funny, the joke in my family is that I am fully illiterate...
Is it really a joke though?
Andrew... is that you?
Most jokes have a core of truth
It's me!
It must be, he's one of very few people here that figured that quest out (though I'm willing to bet his siblings were the ones that reads and not him)
Im Andrew
Go join your buddy Jeff!
It isnt that hard to figure out .. even if you dont read the note. Hmm wonder why this tree has some red cloth on it ??
Sup guys, i.m Brazilian, i complete demo, the best game for me. Someone k'now date of anuncied ?
No date yet.
LOL got me on that one
I agree.. but if you stay in chat long enough.. you lose faith in humanity
Ty
I lost faith in humanity while I was still a child...
I would have had to have some to be able to lose it.....
Well yeah, Boat showed up when I did so its already close...
I'm sorry for being the reason for loss of humanity
now I want to ask when the game is releasing
Yes .. but when it the game coming out ?! .... 🙂
That's the closest anyone knows.
When they feel ready as it says
faith in humanity less than zero ...
therefore, it must be so
I hope its soon, like this month, latest next cuz hype will die down otherwise
I hope its before I die at least.
.
or maybe at least a month before I die
heh
that actually sounds pretty good. lolz. 😂
nah i've got more chicken nuggets in the freezer, or i could make some Ground Beef and Queso to eat with tortillas
Sadly, but it's gonna be a little bit of a way before they actually release it fully best estimate. Guess, usually when games are like this usually 6 months to a year, and that's if they have all their ducks in a row, if not 2 to 3 years. The According to the demo with my prediction, I would put it in the 6th month to a year ideal. The demo was pretty good and smooth, and if they have a lot more content already made already and they're just finishing up the first part of it, we should get at least an alpha. That's just my prediction
if ea drops tomorrow ill make the server prime rib with garlic dill mashed red potatoes or a veg alternitive lol
golden corral in the early 2000s
Now I do gotta say this game is pretty solid as a demo so far. I mean, it is eye-opening all over the internet everywhere where I look, it is jumping at me personally, playing the demo myself. It's definitely a little rusty. Everybody gets the pun there but a little bit of hammer and nails and everything will be fine
i miss ponderosa
a veg alternative??? WALK THE PLANK
i do make killer grilled portabellas
all hear say
On the other part as much as we're all excited.You gotta remember, you can't rush perfection.All good things come in time.Rome was not bit old in a day
i've got a recipe for "spicy blackbean & sweet potato burritos" it's vegetarian and very good. one of my favorite things to prep and keep in the freezer
you know what would make it better... meat
It's not a meal without meat!
im not saying im vegetarian. hell, i even mentioned making ground beef. lol.
but meat isn't always required for stuff lol
game is optimised well enough that I doubted it was running UE5 ! 😄
ALWAYS MEAT
WHAT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE
4. HATE SPEECH
I hate Meatcists
@hasty roost you laugh react but i dont see the recipe in my dms
Closed alpha came out months ago and the demo, while not nearly a big as the alpha, had less issues, more stable etc. Lots more polish on the demo too. I think they may be closer than you think for EA.
Still waiting... some config files I gotta modify, some devs I have to butter up... how!?

I wish nothing but a matress of a billion thumbtacks for whoever made the NVIDIA driver update that broke my pc
One of my friends works on this game and he said GTA 6 will be out before this.
The current issues with multiplayer are the main technical issue I can see. Beyond that, it's polish and implimenting suggestions to make sure the EA release is well received, IMHO.
glad I switched AMD in december
Between this and enshrouded I will be keeping quite busy
could of asked my for my first born.... ill charesh this 5 ever
Stop using windows...
Rolled my drivers back to january ones and its running ok (so far...)
Is there 64° roofs? there is walls but i cant find the roof
is this thing out yet or what?
your first born? how you gonna have a kid with a pan?
i've already got one i didnt plan on. definitely dont need another LOL
And switch to linux? Nooo thank you
youd be suprised what that handle can do
Linux is the way.
steamOS!!
Is linux...
never said it wasn't?
fr if something dosent like linux you can just spin up a vm
For you maybe. I prefer just being able to have my stuff done automatically because I dont have the technical knowhow to install a package to enable my cursor or install a specific program manually to use a wallpaper
Linux is NOT for me matey
None of those things are even remotely true of any distro I've used.
its an exaggeration
It is an exaggeration but with a nugget of truth
So many of them are getting better on this front, I'm probably ready to switch this year when I find the time.
The demo is only 5% of the game. We have no idea where the devs are in terms of progress on the other 95%.
Definitely dual booting is a good option to slowly make the transition.
I also dont see the point. I'll hopefully be off to the military in a few months so I'm not gonna bother tbh as I cant take my setup with me
mudda has a great vid on how to switch
Best distro before SteamOS comes out.... uwuntu
DM that to me?
Only if you're not sharing a drive between them. Windows is evil and will break things.
will do
Yes, that is a very accurate and important caveat LOL
And remember Steam on Linux will be unable to use your games that are stored on an NTFS volume because NTFS is trash and doesn't support Linux file permissions
that's a tomorrow me problem
I don't understand all the love for SteamOS. It's modified and locked down Arch. I'm partial to Endeavour to get a fully functioning ARch system out of the installer.
But it literally stands for Not Trash File System I thought... LOL
@scarlet geyser its in ur dms
NT = New Technology
we're anticipating it opening up more when the steam machine drops, but it's Gaben, Gaben gives hope against evil corpos.. agree or disagree the hype is gaben
Microsoft Naming conventions were conceived by children LOL
Not entirely true. I used an NTFS volume for over 2 years. It did cause a few headaches, but I was able to work around most of it until I swapped drives.
Yeah, but it protects people from themselves, which can be a benefit for those who don't enjoy formatting drives and cursing at scripts all day.
Yeah, I was just making a joke
I know, it was obvious you didn't mean that 😛
But it is trash.
It causes some other issues unfortunately, will have to revisit again once I have the time 🙁
I've been running Linux nearly exclusively since 2024
Yes, but it makes it very hard to help people when they have a locked down, nonstandard OS. Like all the folks spinning up Bazzite and then asking how to do things in the SC LUG. I can't help them with an immutable.
Yeah, but you'd never suspect because the name is so clear that its not trash.
August of '23 for me.
I mean completely free of Windows. I've been using Linux for over 20 years.
oh yea, if you love linnux so much then name every distro
LOL
Yep. That's when I switched over my gaming computer. Everything else was already Linux. Mint on my game server and my mom's desktop and raspbian on my pi3.
I could probably name 30ish
Very nice! Yeah I'm so blown away by how good gaming on Linux has become
Most of them are forks of Debian, Arch, or Red Hat/Fedora.
It's Gentoo or nuthin! lol j/k
I would switch from Windows, but I would pretty much have to rebuild my setup from scratch because I have an ASUS FX505D with a 2060. The internal SSD is only 500GB, so not nearly big enough for my needs, so I also have a WD Black 4TB HDD for most of digital games, including Windrose. I would do something else but I am broke and trying to replace the lose of my vehicle.
Yeah that's rough. GL getting the cash you need for your car
since it's priate adjacent, apparently Eiichiro Oda wrote the ending to One Piece and put it at the bottom of the ocean as a thing for selling 600million copies
just got done sinking another ship.. huzzah!!! 😄
yeah i heard he wrote it down
Ripped it in two
Then put one in a chest and sunk it
I have been hoping Valve would save the day with SteamOS, but I resorted to sticking with 10 via extended support. Maybe Microsoft wouldn't be so bad if they hadn't sold their soul for AI.
me and my friend keep experiencing the game locking up on us anyone else having this issue?
back when ai was easy to spot
yeah 6 months ago
that was made in 2023
Ok mr "Actually"
I occasionally have such issues, but in my case it is probably a side effect of running the game off the external drive.
that dude would last 2 seconds in a pirate raid
good front line cannon fodder
Starting the demo on solo
I have played solo for basically two full runs of through the demo, and it's been great, even though I have died a bunch, especially once I realized there wasn't any point in not upgrading the 5 unique weapons.
no you're a boat
But I think of myself as a fleet
Alright guys... I wishlisted the game, beat the demo, and did the waiting... c'mooooon :p /s
how do we do farming?
farming isn't in the demo
well h*ck...
WOAH.. this is a PG13 channel.. H*ck.. jeez
The demo is doing it's job splendidly, it has everyone wanting more.
better lol
Yes, thank you 🙂
ah.. missed opprotunity.. should have said "OH HELL NAH.. This is a blah blah blah
Just finished a sizable chunk of the demo. And I want to offer my services for the Shanty singing! Who do I speak to about it?
Grok
anyone without a headset I hope /s
Always love it when these randos are offering their services
I mean, I am a shanty singer based in Cornwall, and I would love nothing more than to sing for the game
But as unhinged as you look, you may fit the bill. the shanties are too clean as of now.
That's the point! Feels a bit TOO spot on.
I also have access to the Stuns'ls shanty group, who can offer variation
I'd say message the red name at the top 😄
Diamond, thank you!
Theres a couple of feedback threads talking about it. Since the devs DO read them I imagine there will be some audio tweaking in Early Access
Here's to Seeing Sam Wheatley in the credits
the zombie in the hole lol
You better get used to it
Is that a threat?
Boars, dodos, zombies, mega boars, mega crabs.
dark souls hard
Skill issue
Not everyone enjoys souls games.
another skill issue
arrrrrrrrrggggggggghhhhhhhhhhh got em
you transferred the skill issue onto the enemy, good job mate
I don't think the developers meant for THAT kind of interaction with Zombies. I'm sure there is a game out there that does though.
Let me know if you find one, my friend asked.
Sorry, I'm not that kind of gamer....
skill issue
smells all vetty up in here
Phenomenal game so far. So addicting.

Slang Meaning (Vetti/Vetty):
Definition: Originating from Tamilvetti means idle, useless, or doing nothing (e.g."vetti scene" = wasting time).
Usage: Often used in informal, spoken Tamil to describe a "waste" or "useless" situation or person.
Context: Sometimes implies showing off without talent or simply sitting idle. -
Technology/Company (Vetty):
Definition: Vetty is an AI-driven platform for employee background checks, credential monitoring, and onboarding, aimed at streamlining hiring in compliance-sensitive industries like healthcare (ADP Marketplace: https://apps.adp.com/en-US/apps/372735/vetty-background-checks/features).
You know.. deep down.. you know
I'll go with the Tamil one
you know
the famous Tamil noun
Does the game progress even when after you log out? I know it sounds crazy, especially when you choose solo/offline, but I am just curious because everytime I log in I am hungry and all the crafting I had set up is always done, lol.
I have a silly question, but is there a way to recycle clothing or old weapons? When you upgrade to better stuff, do you just drop it on the sand or save it?
i know dropping it doesnt despawn at all.. was thinking of burring a chest with them
Man I can't stop looping the steam trailer. Haven't seen that good of a music and gameplay combo since witcher 3 rage and steel
That is some material that can be reused. I wish there was a way to break it back down
The game does not move on unless you have some dedicated server. In this case I would say it's just some bugs autocompleting the crafting, the game not saving your hunger state, and if you look really closely.. devs don't read this part ||it's daytime when you log in||
DUDE... OUT LOUD?!?!?!
deleted
it's mostly a joke lol, my b, forgot to add /s
its a secret between us
just you and me mate
nobody is ever gonna figure that one out hahahahaaaa

quiet you
they should make it so we can emote to each other from the ships helm
agreed but only like that
there should be friendly hostile and nuetral emotes 😛
that one counts for all 3
thats art
i wanna emote like this, neutral emote
that guy killed some people for sho
but his expressive dance should definitely be in the game
if not, no buy
hear me devs? youre gonna lose millions of customers
steam says feb 17th when is the actual release date?
that's the release for the demo, no estimated time on early access other than 2026
booooo
ugh!
Are the only roof pieces available in the demo the "grass hut" ones?
as dedicated "roofs" yes. but you can use other things as standins that also ccount
think one of the things i most love is the flintlocks fire like they should rather than like a muzzle loader with a percussion cap
Appears that way was going to say use wood plank but thats a floor piece, I just think of it as roof since I am building in the style of fortifications of the time.
Oooooooo
ok how did i mis that 🙂
i tried a few things using the wooden ramp, the stone incline thingy and sticks for patchwork leaf-roofs and whatnot.
nice I like it 🙂
It looks good
time to go hunt enemy ships will see if I survive the map boards this time, could be that invisible ship
EA drops tommorow
in stock value? :p
if i say it everyday ill be right eventualy lol
guys, where do i report discord scambots coming from this server ?
For now yes in demo. There are full sets in the actual game and new pieces nobody has seen yet that have been added since Alpha. Demo is just a peak at the beginning things you can access.
you can message me with screenshot and info or another mod.
ok then i'll do so 🙂
also repoprt directly to discord
you could also tell me but im not a mod and not going to do anything with it and honestly just dont message me it but youre welcome to
ye ofc
For those new.
Demo will run until Early Access and demo is ruffly only about 5% of what will be in Early Access. Exploreable area of Archipelago in demo is only about 2.5% of what will be in Early Access. Early Access will be announced in the #│announcements when it is time. See the latest post here #│announcements message from Yar_Master. As far as price and packages, that will most likely follow Early Access Release info.
Also, characters, items and buildings will not transfer to the Early Access, it is part of the demo – different client, different game builds. So enjoy playing the demo for now until that time 🙂
when is the game going to be fully released???
See above post lol
ea is sometime soonish this year and full release is unkown
just finished the demo, im so hyped for release
dang all right really enjoyed the demo beat the demo and there is really nothing else to do just wondering but ty
You can jump in an participate in the building competition here #│announcements message
build crazy stuff
Lot people have posted some pretty cool stuff in #🎨│creative
how much $?
Not really a builder so im ok i just like the resource aspect of the game and the fighting. especially the ship fights lol
put a it in bugs homie!
@neat oriole Some things to look forward to - sneak peaks from the Dev Yar_Master
I would hate to do that lol
easy acess to store minning goods like Copper mines
i really like the muskets though ngl
WHY MUST YOU TEASE ME
WHAT NEXT @granite oxide ? YOURE GOING TO TELL ME MY DAD CAME BACK WITH THE MILK?
You can read more up on those picture here #💬│windrose-chat message
hey anyone whos been building heavily, have you gotten to a point where you lag? I dont mean drop in fps, but like a latency "sticky" lag?
Aww dam nvm
okay these are really cool
mostly cause i put to many torches
:*( I gess when I tryed it I was to close 🙁
For me no, I've not had any lag or freezes in the demo. Running full Epic and it has been super smooth for me so far.
just get closer to the ship and it still works. the distance is just a tad too great^^
my pc can only handle the game with everything on low
Ya I was hopin it would work in the mines lol
I'm more hyped fpr this than the freshman cypher
I'm glad you can run it - but hopefully there will be more optimization so you can run it smoother.
rip
i had such high hopes for that game
destroy the foundation\
nope
Console gameplay is on the radar, however it will most likely come after the PC version is done as mentioned here #1472629796470128782 message
either way im havin fun
when ya'll get this game on console im plannin on gettin it there as well since i normally play xbox
might need a re load any bugs ive had have mostly been solved with that
i guess i can make a pedestal and honor its loss.
strange. I have a VERY beefy computer so i dont think its my pc.
reload, im pretty positive, will just disappear the item completely
requiescat in pace 🙏
the game had this glitch when i dropped my backpack from my character once too, i had to remake the backpack.
in this instance, it happened from a chest being destroyed
the price hits hard 😭
oh wait, tf is this GPU price ? ._.
there's something wrong here
when the ddr5 and gpu prices should be reversed here. thats Nuts xD
nah nah
it should have a 1 in front, period
and ram was about 300$ before the price increase, smth like that
Running a AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D 8-Core Processor and Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070. Been running games with no issues.
i figured it out I think. my libreHardwareMonitor was compromised with a trojan.
my ram was basically free compared to my damn 4090 lmao
Well that will definitely do it lol
fresh OS install it is I guess.... gotta be safe. this takes me out of the running for the building contest....
yeah i don't doubt that, that's why it's suspicious to see 137$ 5090, i think this sh*t is the price of the cooling, not the GPU itself 🤣
Can other players open your storage containers?
how did you figure out ? cause if there was one, you should have been warned the moment you downloaded it, right ?
i corrected it
ok now it definitely is a GPU price 🤣
it stoped functioning correctly and in my troubleshooting of that, my antivirus finally caught it trying to execute higher level functions
W11 ?
so an update to it may have been compromised
ok feel kind of silly not realizing I could upgrade ships components until tonight huge difference
also i saw messages above, it's sad i can't farm in advance for the EA release cause the demo save is not transfered 😭
still...HOW
thats one piece being as pricey as my entire pc man. what kind of correctionis this xD
bar brawl and ale production
#1478568117201535057 message
The last item you don't have yet will make a bigger difference. It is not in the demo, but here is a picture of one of them.
There are different Naval Tactics
wow nice
from the price of RAM/SSD, you know it's a recent price, from "after" the crisis started, so that's why
@vernal basin taking prices from france RN, we are at 3800€~, so yeah, it's the regular "now" price 😭
I blame AI we can't get a hardware quote good for more than 14 days
some as bad as three
and you wanna know how much money* that "AI" scam has generated ?
wait for them to figure out they over built like the last two ai waver then prices will tank
thank all that is holy i got my crap when i did. no way these prices are thought through. absolutely mental
i'm glab i got my laptop when it was on sales in september, when everything was still fine 🤣
that bug i had fixed itself
i had to run away from the area.
Glad you got it fixed.
make a note, running away from the area, resets the loot or something, it's pick uppable now.
I have not encountered that myself, interesting to know.
Can other players open your storage containers?
yes (not the ship tho. beware that gets dropped if the ship sinks*)
hmm seems legit. a simple hardware monitoring program has accumulated 223 thousand files
The computer chat is always interesting, but lets take that to the Off topic so it doesn't dominate the Windrose Main channel please 🙂
I don't see anything wrong with that tbh. It probably stores its monitoring metrics in files.
is it only the first three islands we get to explore or is there more? everytime i try to venture out it says leave water area or be destroyed
only 3 for the demo. Demo is a completely different client than the Early Access.
It is simply a taste of the basics.
for now in the demo yes, the three. it IS possible to get past that restriction, but there really is no reason to do it, the "backdrop islands" are barren. but here are some screenshots i took to show you. some trees and a few rocks. maybe a banana if youre lucky. no ore at all. no secrets. no mobs. nothing.
Demo will run until Early Access and demo is ruffly only about 5% of what will be in Early Access. Exploreable area of Archipelago in demo is only about 2.5% of what will be in Early Access. Early Access will be announced in the #│announcements when it is time. See the latest post here #│announcements message from Yar_Master. As far as price and packages, that will most likely follow Early Access Release info.
Also, characters, items and buildings will not transfer to the Early Access, it is part of the demo – different client, different game builds. So enjoy playing the demo for now until that time 🙂
Also Those areas may not even be in the actual game - can be completely different 🙂
This. I believe they made the backdrop islands big hills just to make the horizon pretty in the demo.
okay cool!! i appreciate it!! i was curious what those islands were too lol
Man I wouldn't mind building a nice house on top of that mountain tho
look at that beautiful view god damn
does this stack?
Have not played with it yet to see how it works but like other ship items can be upgraded.
Will have to wait for Early Access.
ah k
its saying i need an iron pick to mine sulfger im guessing i need that to make gun powder but non of the caves have iron is that in the demo or no??
no iron here
for more gunpowder, hunt down blackbeards dimwhits on land. they got some
btw i try to bring the OG content creator to play this game cause they are gen 1 content creator at my country and very like about game pirate.I hope this game doesn't disappoint them like the skull and bones.
"OG gen 1"? who are you referring to? xD
i think S & B's was a lil toooo........cartoonish.......she ship additions........well everything really. to a point. i enjoyed S & B's, but it did get old quick
