Demo is good, now release it tomorrow, well fix the game with you!

just out of curiosity are the developers still popping up servers now and again and dumping gunpowder stashes on people cause i could really use that lmao

Well if you want to know how to actually farm gp thats how id do it

👆 This. Since King George II was the king of England during the time of piracy in the Caribbean any HMS ships in Windrose would be "His Majesty's Ship" Unless we are going by a completely alternate timeline. Which is possible. One of the notes in game referred to Henry Avery/Henry Every.

Henry Avery was more than likely not even alive during the pirates of the Caribbean days. He was already a legend by that time. He sailed in the 1600s on the other side of the world in the Indian Ocean and is known for pulling off one of the greatest heist in history. Not only did he pull off this amazing heist but he also was never captured. His fate is completely unknown. What we know about his eventual end is only speculations and hearsay.

I just read the pinned messages, and just want to say, I really hope it remains co-op/pve. If there's PVP I really hope it's opt in only.

Perhaps they can run it up through the centuries. Imagine survival in the pacific seas starting out with a u boat until you can find the battleship.

What good is a pirate game with tall ships if you're going to introduce 20th century warships

That Assain game did it

over and over and over and over. Product cycle zombie.

It's called Uboat

#

o7 sailor. Same bro

thick wyvern
#

So I finished the questline on easy and decided to change difficulty to a harder mode and do all the upgrade stuff like upgrade weapon to legendary, the game starts me out back on the starter island but my base is on a island south of it, everytime I try to sail the boat there i get halfway and get leave water area or be destroyed and wind up dying and spawning back on the starter island, anyway to fix this without starting all over?

north marsh
#

Maybe crank the difficulty back down? I've never seen this problem honestly

brisk lynx
#

I always just started a new server when I started a new character

thick wyvern
#

Yeah when I load the easy mode back up im back at my base

surreal sierra
#

Look on the map youll see a hatched area, thats the world border, dont sail into that

thick wyvern
surreal sierra
#

Post your map so I can take a peep? Just a screenshot will do

You could keep your lvl 5 too and just start him on a new seed.

surreal sierra
#

You can change your existing worlds difficulty in the main main. Just got to the settings page when choosign your world

brisk lynx
#

Not trying to tell you how to play your game bro just offering suggestions to make it work better maybe'

thick wyvern
surreal sierra
#

Thats... realy weird. Sounds like a dumb suggestion but try going around in arcs both to the east and west and see if theres any change.

Worst case its just a bug with your world generation

thick wyvern
#

also on the higher difficulty the fog of war is there

#

ty for the fyi though

ivory marsh
#

how many islands are in the game currently?

brisk lynx
#

3

surreal sierra
#

Only the first 3 of the Archipelago

#

the biome is MUCH bigger though and that will be shown publicly in EA once it drops

brisk lynx
#

EA is supposed to have a bunch more when it goes live

thick wyvern
surreal sierra
#

you can do half of a quest in 1 world and then the rest in another with no issue

thick wyvern
#

ok ill try that then

#

all inventory aka stuff in base or just whats on your character?

surreal sierra

just the inventory youre carrying

There are some pics from the dev's in pinned above 📌 in this channel as to some of what is going to be in Early Access 🙂

#

Demo will run until Early Access and demo is ruffly only about 5% of what will be in Early Access. Explorable area of Archipelago in demo is only about 2.5% of what will be in Early Access. Early Access will be announced in the #news 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 – See Dev comment here #💬│windrose-chat message. So enjoy playing the demo for now until that time

So short answer on Early Access. Early access is Soon to be sometime in 2026 🙂

# gusty adder I am the designated builder for the dune guild i am in. The building in this is ...

I played Dune Extensively, loved the building there. Have played in the Windrose/(previously Crosswind) Alpha, which had full building sets. They have since added some really cool pieces to those building sets. I believe you going to go crazy when you see all that you can actually unlock and the ways to unlock those pieces equally so. Can't wait to hear from you after Early Access to see what your building experience is 🙂

This is the only tease from the Dev's, but it never gets old seeing it lol

if it does break just reload the save no reason to be tryhard

sometimes some pieces look connected and game decided that they are not, like maybe some of the wall pieces

hence it might be a decent idea to hide a few thin support vertical sticks in the walls on the sides

if you referring to getting sulfur - you can get it with the ship canons, but you can't make gunpowder in demo. Recipe is behind content not in demo. You can easily farm gunpowder from pirates and pirate camps.

not knowing when it ends is terible enough, but not explaining why...

honestly if i was running an admin team these things will hapen, but i would tell them thats not the game book i was running

#

well as long as its clear to you.... that matters... els you shouldnt expect ppl to change

spiral quiver
#

and i wasn't the only one hammering on this person either , i asked in a dm to someone else who was argueing and asked if they got a vacation too , they were like nope but i stopped argueing when you got the boot lol

well i was almost booted out lastnight too, i met some one that had it worse then me

and the entire chat hated having a second me xD

glad hawk
#

damn man u can prolly get a permit to turn them in for money

spiral quiver
#

theres canals on both sides of aligator alley..in a semi you can see them and they're filled with gators

#

and bison arent extinct btw

glad hawk

tell that to the whales

#

u to try to sell that... you wont be completely extinct xD

I started playing last night and I can’t build anything but the bonfire. It doesn’t even give me an option for other builds.

I suppose it could have something to do with my key-mapping but that doesn’t seem likely. I am a one-handed gamer and have most keys remapped to facilitate the use of my Razer Naga LH mouse (19 buttons)

Any help/suggestions would be great.

@glad hawk has a point. You could go to the character menu and look at the bottom of screen - create a new character below the first one and try to load that one in on a new world just to see if you bugged for some reason.

i can immagine being 1 handed... but that only gets me so far

its kinda of a personal prefrence thing so i compliment your mouse choice

@idle orchid also sent you a DM.

idle orchid
glad hawk
#

did u ever get banned for games using that new bin technique to recognise cheater/ for using ur mouse more then normal people?

granite oxide
#

@idle orchid Trying a new character is a quick test to see if it is a bug or not.

glad hawk
#

ive seen games that dont alow third party programs and your mouse technicaly does that

idle orchid
#

Key-binding options rarely work well enough to suit my needs. I was hopeful on this game for minute. 😅 Devs never seem to test key-binding very well.
I’ll try a new character. Maybe I’ll try my custom x-box controller.
Either way, I’ll submit feedback at some point.

Thanks for all the help everyone!

Demo will run until Early Access and demo is ruffly only about 5% of what will be in Early Access. Explorable area of Archipelago in demo is only about 2.5% of what will be in Early Access. Early Access will be announced in the #news when it is time. See the latest post here ⁠│announcements⁠ 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

Although... do have to wonder what is that 5% comparted to 2.5%. Is the 5% everything else than the map?

spiral swallow
#

buildable things

granite oxide

#

Btw happen to know what is counted as explorable area or how it's counted? Everything, including ocean and islands, only islands (but by area) or the number of islands?

#

Suppose doesn't mater too much but there is a subtle difference... the number of islands doesn't consider how large the other islands are and could even be more than 97.5% by land mass

#

if landmass of islands only, could mean less islands than the number suggests but could be larger in size

spiral swallow
#

I have heard 30 islands in ea compared to the 3 we have now.

spiral quiver

#

Ocean and islands is counted in explorable area, there's a lot of islands, lots of islands. Much more than we had in last Alpha which was 13. Some islands can swallow the 3 in demo a few times over so some of them are massive. The exact number was not named and we won't tell you how many there actually are - you'll have to wait for Early Access 🙂

#

Early Access will be the first actual Beta.

no a player mentioned 30 - no dev or mod said 30 as that is not an accurate number - you'll have to wait and see how many on Early Access.

Either way, sounds exciting. Was a bit worried there would not be more variety in size of islands

Bermuda Triangle when?

glad hawk

#

Just a personal opinion, but I prefer using smaller islands as a base so it feels more like I own/control the entire island, but would prefer medium/large islands for exploration

#

That is why I hoped for a healthy variety in size

dont we all

Well if you take a look at the loading screen there's roughly that number of islands, right?

do you make them? you think devs release due to other games release schedules lol that is a good one actually 👍 😉

glad hawk
#

i wouldnt hold it against them

#

if you get away with a writers strike,,, and delay the release...

#

just to cut some costs... and delay it with the competition

#

as long as you do the right workers compesations i can write the writers off for tactical market placement

#

lemme talk to the board

#

i never understood why ppl find marketing hard...

#

but i would make a finished game before i would pre-release... im super expensive

#

if you make that the end goal it leaves you a little wiggle room in pre post-production

#

i see alot of games fail due to pre release being to early

#

not having enough content/content still looking too much like... not enough flair...

#

also the fact ppl can sue you if you DONT actualy give a full game...

#

pre release... sounds like a insurance issue if you dont make ur goal finished product first

#

no i dont release game i play test games....

I have a question, not sure if it's answered somewhere or not.... When you're out and you take over an enemies ship, do you get the ship too? Like, if it's better/bigger then your ship, can you use it?

We have the ability to build new ships at the Wharf. Seem like it would be an aweful waste if we didn't get to build other ships somewhere along the way.

and the demo is only 0.1%

Not sure you know what a demo is 🤔😏

It cannot be added as much of it has been changed, removed, an other content added - Also, many systems are tied to content not in demo and turning any part of that on would crash the demo. Demo goes away When Early Access launches.

I did the last Playtest in Summer 2025 and some things were removed - even a couple ships, and other content ships, assets were added in. Early Access is way more than what the last Alpha was or demo is. Demo is simply that, a small test bed for people to get a basic idea without giving too much. Want people to really have a lot to look forward to - not a little 😉

I am doing a Windrose Demo playthrough for a 4th time. I had fun with what is offered in it and figured out fun ways to use what was available to build some interesting things. I am still having fun, I am not were where the "ppl would have had a better time" is comming from. The demo I am guessing is to introduce new people to the game in a nice controlled package as well as to test some new concepts in the code (which users never know about). I am pretty sure it is as simple as that. I am looking forward to the official EA release but I would prefer them to take their time and get things tight backend wise instead of doing like most every AAA game distributer has done over the past decade and push stuff out in not so good shape.

Would be cool if we could use Smuggler's Chests and such as personal storage. I built a structure on top of the Smuggler's Cashe on the first island.

# solemn pulsar Just started. Any tips?

upgrade your gear as soon as possible. Gear is more important than levels in the demo. Food gives you valuable hp buffs. "T" to target enemies if needed. Enemies don't regenerate so use that to your advantage if there's too many to fight at once. Some of the letters you find might be extremely important, so reading them will be important. Get used to parrying and dodging its the core mechanics in fights. And most importantly, have fun and take your time, you can enjoy the demo for as long as you want and build or battle as much as you desire.

👴 Let me tell ya a story. I used to do alpha and beta testing of games and app. The last game I alphaed was Defiance. Fun game, had to buy a headset, got my first experience with squad vs squad and faction vs faction battles. Fun stuff. The last build before their set release datehad a game stopper bug in it. During one of the boss fights the boss would teleport in to a wall, end of fight, quit out. Game went out as was and they tried to patch it before the preorder folk got to it in the release. With in a day hundreds were demanding refunds. The devs blamed the alpha testers. Have not done an invite alpha since.

Well they did partner with Chrysler, and the series, they had set the release date for the same day the series released. But even after fixing it, it got developed to death. Basically they built a nice half ton Dodge RAM truck, then stacked 2 tons of crap on it. They just kept adding factions and events. Last I checked the game was nonstop chaos.

It'll very likely be similar to what we see in the demo, so a dingy and an active flag ship that you can change / swap at a wharf.

Oh that would be awesome. Minus the companion app please. That felt too mandatory.

I used to use the companion app all the time, I loved it as a little side thing to do while I was out and about

-# could even have NPCs that are better for specific types of scenarios, and assigning them as Captain would increase your success chance 🤔

Has there been any mention of further optimization for lower end rigs? A friend has a GTX 1080 and minimum is listed as 1080 Ti, apparently the game runs decently when everything is set to low so it's playable at least from what he said

#

the 1080 i think is about 10 years old..i can see them optimizing the game further but i wouldnt count on it since at some point, one has to see that their rig is simply not up to date anymore :/

The part until where we're now, quest-wise, should only take a small amount of time. If the start of the game is actually exactly like the first few quests in the demo. Might be different, although I don't think it will be.

dunno what the beginning part was like back then when it was still planned for being an mmo but perhaps it might still be similar to that? Maybe we have some extra scenes or stuff to do before the tutorial happens. I didn't read the notes yet since i want to keep those for ea but knowing what we were doing before that would be interesting

Crosswind was fun. It was still early so far from perfect, but having so many people in Tortuga was great and I’ll miss seeing the masts and sails of incoming/outgoing ships.

Are we going to conquer it back? Or can you not talk about that? 🙂

Imagine conquering and building it back piecemeal... I'd like that!

Just sounded very similar to the whole golden sands arc.

Skeletons took over a popular player port.
Big community effort to get it back.
Eventually turned into massive player social location.

Or at least it was meant to be like that. There are no social aspects to SoT anymore. It’s just sweats and runners. No one actually wants to chill in that game anymore

"More players in co-op. We’re testing the increased limits of co-op capacity. While the real performance in the end will be affected by many factors, including those beyond our control (connection of each player and the specs of each server), we will do our best to increase the coop limit from 4 to 8 players. That said, in terms of gameplay difficulty scaling, we believe the best experience lies in the 1-4 players range. With more people in your crew at the same time, you will probably steamroll everything laughing hard, but that’s fine if that’s the way you want to have fun!"

That would be awesome

I had presumed the loot in the demo was intended to get us a chance to try out multiple different playstyles. Glad to see they are indeed randomizing it (though I had assumed they already were going to do that)
