No, this is not the copy pasta that devs are releasing all over the place. this is a passion project for the devs. Let them make it in their image. The gaming industry is being destroyed by people that are not members of the team making decisions. no more investors. Just let the team rise and fall on their own merit. We don't need the garbage that everybody else is releasing.

[stable apex]

anyone know how get past this?

[ruby tusk]

Did anybody also noticed a significant drop in FPS recently? I used to clock in at about 100 but now it lingers around 50/60 and round 30 in my base

[crisp vigil]

i mean we should get ships of the line

[slow marlin]

you could build

[terse dust]

hookshot

[grand sandal]

Go around. lol

[severe thorn]

check for breakable wall and go around it

[alpine umbra]

Can I grow coconuts?

[wide hound]

Do you build a lot? I suspect that building too much will cause lag.

[stable apex]

i cant even get close

[regal wagon]

The game hasn't even been out a month. They're building feedback for working on core systems. What sense would it make, to throw as many random variables to add more possible problems in before the basics are hammered out.

[ruby tusk]

Also in the main menu

[ornate oriole]

Tbh, I feel like having combat system attempt to mimic Souls-type is a bad idea. It's also noticeable in servers if you get a high ping, that's when parrying loses any power since ping won't let you parry proper. It needs to be more arcadey of sorts, or perhaps mimic something along the lines of For Honor, with different attack directions and stuff

[severe thorn]

It will be in another part, one of the walls will say 'stone' and you can pickaxe it

[green niche]

Surprisingly it does not, at least when outside of build mode.

[violet oriole]

Too many light sources in an area will cause fps to tank.

[wide hound]

I noticed the lag in 2 situations. 1. multiplay in boats at sea in combat. 2. heavily overbuilt bases with every single buildable decoration.

[terse dust]

Unless they would just extend the parry window to something that a 40-year-old man can even see coming.

[ornate oriole]

I don't think you can, but coconuts refresh on palms after a while. Although, if you cut them down, they do not respawn

[regal wagon]

The fun of UE5, light sources eat frames.

[slow marlin]

they do if theyre not near your bonfire

[slender kelp]

wayell.. i've been following it since it was Crosswind so it feels like it's been more than a month they've had to create some slightly more complicated systems and emergent kind of gameplay loops.. again, I love what's there so far... excited to see what's to come... just being honest about the thinness of the content that is there so far.

[olive ermine]

Solution is simple, yes. They need to decide : Action first, and make is snappy, responcive, less punshing for overextending (player is power) or Souls-like : Reduce enemy counts make each trash mob a veritable miniboss, scale stats better so early investments pay off more power and play into dodge/hit/pary sistem without being janky or unfair across all builds/ weapons. I Am fine with EITHER. But this middle ground is very bad

[tidal aspen]

tips go brrrrrr

[ornate oriole]

It's fine if block-parry is on small window (Sturdy Rapier my beloved), but it would be nice if parry would trigger for both sides if you attack at same time as enemy, like in Sid Meier's Pirates, when you hit enemy with same attack, you both get locked into a second of sword clanking before continung the fight

[hollow anchor]

fake news

[olive ermine]

"shooting requires a rifle" 😄

[regal wagon]

Shooting requires gunpowder and pearls.

[wide hound]

Radiant quests would really help. Cartographer guild says go to this unknown location and map it. Navy says hunt this named pirate ship. Or a merchant sells you cargo to bring to a location to sell for a profit.

[tidal aspen]

Shooting requires player input

[ornate oriole]

Imagine if they add a blowgun and darts with effects to alchemy table

[sullen quarry]

Shooting requires the game to be installed

[orchid bison]

Shooting requires hands

[regal wagon]

Shooting requires a functional pc.

[finite sage]

Tell that to Rex "Shotgun Legs" Willington

[ornate oriole]

Shooting requires to be alive

[finite meteor]

I got purple magic bullets and I can die happy. I love them so much I put them in a chest and buried them on an inconspicuous island ❤️

[orchid bison]

He's special

[rapid linden]

Shooting requires that the universe exists

[finite sage]

The most special little boy 😭

[rapid linden]

I also find it so funny that some people are saying 6 months is too long for an update and "no one will be playing by then!!"
some people are so Live Service poisoned.
I remember when we got a singleplayer game and that was it until a few years down the line they made a sequel.

[regal musk]

Theres no hotkey to max out a crafting resource right? Either manually enter the amount you want to craft or press x or click till its maxed?

[regal wagon]

Or you waited 6 months to a year for a dlc release.

[orchid bison]

If you click the number you can type in the amount you want

[ornate oriole]

6 months for large update by indie studio is actually a very good pacing in my opinion. I would've expected a year for big one

[wide hound]

All of my friends fell off as soon as they beat the 3rd boss, it was over. It was like a speedrun. I like to vibe in the game and listen to pirate songs even if I don't have a quest marker to chase.

[sinful cypress]

Me when I want the HMS Victory

[night zinc]

anyone have a spare rapier of devastation or one I can hold for recipe?

[terse dust]

They must've missed Valheim entirely. 🤷‍♂️

[regal musk]

Right, but no one click max craft?

[pearl bolt]

honestly hated radiant quests in fallout, i guess if it was a regular way to earn gold and get mats it would be ok to grind them.

[orchid bison]

I don't think so no

[regal wagon]

But there's another settlement that needs your help.

[finite meteor]

I remember playing, loving, forgetting Jak & Daxter. Then I became an adolescent and they released J&D 2! I felt so loved by mega game companies back then lol

[tidal aspen]

today's goal for asha, restock gold/silver bars

[pearl bolt]

under attack from a bunch of ghouls and we could really use some help

[wary agate]

is there anyway to climb your boat?

[ancient oxide]

the right side keep heading right

[ornate oriole]

Well, yes and no. These would get tedious very fast, they would need some sort of spicing up, like, for navy one, there could be either naval special ship to attack or land special enemy to kill, with gimmicks of their own(fine if they repeat after a bit, just not plain "kill a boat" or "kill a pirate"

[slender kelp]

you can click on the number and drag your mouse to scale the production number up quickly

[pearl bolt]

skull and bones took longer and theyve still only got half a map

[regal wagon]

The modern live service model created gamers who are more obnoxious than the average league lobby.

[obtuse summit]

Hi, I am new here. May I ask something? Will there be a Console release for Xbox and Playstation in a few years when the game is in its final state? because I really would love to play it

[orchid bison]

Asha has an awesome goal, if she needs I can give some gold and silver, I've got too much laying around anyways :)

[wide hound]

Well my radiant quest idea would serve several purposes. 1. exploration. If you had some indicator of an unexplored region to map, with a map marker it makes people feel like they are accomplishing a goal. 2. special named ships with more HP like ship bosses, would make ship combat way more fun, since normal enemy boats become fodder. And 3. A trade economy with some expensive things to buy when you become 'rich'

[finite sage]

SAIL BOAT STAMINA

[wary agate]

anyway to actually climb your boat? I see the crew getting to the nests all the time

[leaden drum]

I'm sorry, what?

[orchid bison]

You get a prompt to press e when you get close, snaps you onto the deck

[finite sage]

Save a couple of years, you'll be able to put together a PC

[regal wagon]

If you're talking climb the rigging to the nests, no.

[verbal sierra]

Little baby dino

[pearl bolt]

yeh and no one ever mentions the weird deck planking, that looks like a ceiling fitting for a house.

[finite meteor]

Climb? You mean up the masts? Not currently.

[mighty ermine]

not really, you can press e on the hull and do whatever your character does on the net

[tidal aspen]

Asha plays alone, everything i gotten has been solo but thanks for offer

[ornate oriole]

Scam and Bull (Skull and Bones) literally has your boat to HAVE A STAMINA BAR TO SAIL PROPERLY

[wary agate]

😢

[finite sage]

Skull and Bones, the AAAA pirate game from Ubisoft, had a stamina bar. For the sail boat. For sailing. With wind.

[orchid bison]

Ofc :), help is always given to those who need it

[lament wing]

is anyone els stuck on lvl 14 i cant seem to find the last island holding the areas with xp im at 525/1000

[pearl bolt]

im sure everytime i call my ship back it parks further away

[leaden drum]

...what?

[obtuse summit]

Haha no I don't want a pc. Thats why I am asking if the console release is something to looking forward

[mighty ermine]

I remember that ! Water horse with sails

[lost ore]

is rep shared?

[wary agate]

is there a pirate telescope i can use?

[orchid bison]

whut...

[regal wagon]

Also no.

[short basalt]

Not so much of a thing anymore as it’s more so tied to bracing

[slender kelp]

Rep with factions is server based.

[wide hound]

I hope they add a telescope and a climbable crows nest.

[ornate oriole]

I think it is. I had my friends play on server, and I donated enough for instant 3rd level of rep with Brethren, and everyone had that rep

[wary agate]

😢 these No's are disappointing

[finite sage]

This is the reason why people who wait for the remastered AC4 seem like a silly bunch, they'll get a ghost of a decent game with MTX and "updated mechanics"

[mighty ermine]

A proper crow nest would be so cool

[regal wagon]

Welcome to the world of "The game hasn't even been in early access a month yet."

[finite meteor]

We still in early early access. Have faith I think they are looking at that stuff but feel free to suggest it as well

[terse dust]

This is the first pirate-themed game I've played since Monkey Island.
All the other ones I've seen have had something Hard-No about 'em, y'dig?

[ornate oriole]

Do we care? Scam and Bull is pretty much dead already, lol. And that was such a massive meme, it will never be forgotten

[lost ore]

Thank you

[spiral quiver]

i just like the devs cussing in press releases lol

[tidal aspen]

Unfortunately the telescopes that we can place are just decoration pieces

[wary agate]

its only been out a month?

[covert apex]

Pirate

[ornate oriole]

2 weeks, actually

[finite sage]

This. It will always be remembered as "SAIL BOAT STAMINA", which actually does have 4 A's

[tidal aspen]

Game came out on 14th so it has been half a month only or 14 days roughly

[finite meteor]

🤣 I noticed that too. I mean hey it would be weird if they didn’t cuss like SAILORS right? Lmao

[wary agate]

thats crazy anyone know how long this was indevelopment before launch?

[short basalt]

You brought it up
Outdated anyway

[pearl bolt]

aye ubisoft just be a bunch o pasty landlubbers and no mistake aarrgghh.

[mighty ermine]

The first 4A game was a failure, let's not do that again

[finite sage]

The memes will live longer than that trashpile, luckily

[tidal aspen]

hah this blackbreard ship lol

[finite sage]

AAAAye

[lime hearth]

man, having to kill 30 people on hard mode for boarding gets super tedious

[tidal aspen]

wow i didn't realize how bad my shp looked on low graphic settings those ugly shadows

[ornate oriole]

Also, this. It would be especially great in MP, so one player can use crow's nest to see islands afar and mark them

[finite sage]

That it does, aye. That's why I love Truffles, the killing machine 😌

[wide hound]

If the devs need to hire people for quest design, I'm available, I've got all the good ideas. 🙂

[finite meteor]

I know it’s ambitious but I really want am epic kraken sea battle lol

[ruby tusk]

Anybody notice a lot more crashes today?

[spiral quiver]

i just remember the last ubi press release when the lead dev was talking about mistakes they made and the other one was to his right laughing and rolling his eyes when certain things were said heh , i was just like omg what tools

[lime hearth]

He dies pretty quick

[terse dust]

oh, yeah? name one boat

[ornate oriole]

Also, I realized that you technically can use ship to do land bombardment, but it's very hard to hit land enemies with it. Best for that are frontal cannons

[wide hound]

The Victory was a cool one

[finite meteor]

I name all my boats thank you very much lol

[knotty perch]

can i reach to crocodile without beating hands

[finite sage]

Only if you don't soften the enemies up with headshots for 15 minutes before 😉

[orchid bison]

Bar shot will be your friend here, much easier to hit those pesky enemies

[terse dust]

that's the challenge

[wide hound]

I named my Ketch the BigBootyLatina

[finite meteor]

Yes

[pearl bolt]

honestly, ill be happy with some more ship customisation, being able to remove the octopus would be a start, and maybe less ripped up sails. and seriously 6 months will just fly by really. i'll have built an entire pyrate city by then. aaarrrrgghhh

[leaden drum]

I haven't even played the original, but I have heard a lot of good things about it. Though those things, in recent times, have gravitated more towards "it was kind of Ubisoft's swansong" (as much as I like some of their other titles).

[ornate oriole]

Maybe, but I want myself grapeshot rounds. Friend attacks camp and I just strafe and explode enemies into red mist with grapeshot

[finite sage]

...remove...the octopus?

[tidal aspen]

I think if we had a way to make a build for Truffles and give it more HP armor etc, ppl would love him lot more

[terse dust]

I named mine THERAPIST
and I will elaborate no further.

[finite sage]

The original is still very much worth playing. No point in giving Ubisoft money for half the content of that for the remaster

[pearl bolt]

with an axe if i could, my name aint barnacle bill yknow.

[ornate oriole]

the is separate

[finite meteor]

Black beard version of ships have octopus stylized carvings on it

[glossy moth]

Thought I'd drop by and say that this is a most excellent Early Access game that Kraken has put together for us. Been enjoying my time being a Pirate Hunter, and I'm really struggling to find critque on it. Anyways, I'll mostly lurk here.. but really enjoying Windrose! 🍻

[spiral quiver]

the pirate frig has an octopus figurehead

[terse dust]

no further, I said!

[wide hound]

I kept using Truffle right up until the last boss. It's fun when 4 people summon a truffle on a boss at the same time.

[orchid bison]

I'd love that!

[leaden drum]

I think a friend gifted the original to me at some point. I absolutely should play it.

[finite sage]

Oh. I never use Blackbeard variants 😌

[brittle geyser]

cthulu with rats to be precise

[finite sage]

Just to clarify, you hunt pirates or are you a pirate that hunts?

[spiral quiver]

theres also a skeleton

[short needle]

6 months for a new update... gulp 🙁

[mighty ermine]

Are there any plans to add some sea monsters like a megalodon or a kraken ?

[brittle geyser]

not on the frigate

[terse dust]

that's a relief, imo

[pearl bolt]

steady there, we be privateers now matey, aaarrrggh

[leaden drum]

WHEY HEY, UP SHE RISES- (immediately interrupted by cannon fire)

[glossy moth]

I'm having a hard time connecting the dots to actually being a pirate in the literaly sense, as it feels like all I do is hunt pirates.. But maybe it's just the pirates that this pirate is hunting. :). Either way, I'm enjoying it.

[spiral quiver]

look again , its on the left side under a tenticle

[ornate oriole]

For big update. Pretty sure they will drop smaller ones along the way, but it's actually better if they take more time on big one, to insure it's polished

[mighty ermine]

Better a good update every half a year than 5 bad ones every 2 months

[wide hound]

How about a hardcore survival mode where fast travel is disabled and if you shipwreck you have to cling to debris and float to an island like a castaway.

[leaden drum]

Here we go again.

[pearl bolt]

thats cos we be privateers matey.

[finite sage]

Speak for yourself, I'm an entrepreneur of sorts, I sell death and business is booming 😎

[short needle]

they say there won't be any smaller one content-wise, everything will be concentrated into one

[terse dust]

well, sure, ye lost yer stuff to pirates, so of course ye gotta kill pirates

DAMNED PIRATES RUINED PIRACY!

[full geyser]

I have no idea why some people complain about 6 month of waiting. Nobody is stopping anyone from putting the game down to play something else for a while.

[sinful nacelle]

Thinking about enforcing some sort of ruleset on our dedicated server, like no Fast Travel. Do you guys have any other fun ideas?

[short needle]

sure but 6 months without nothing...

[ornate oriole]

They actually did tho, we can't plunder english or spanish ships, cuz Black Beard slapped everyone

[finite sage]

Because people are zoomers

[terse dust]

https://giphy.com/gifs/v2Mkppa5Lrspa

[wide hound]

I tried to get my friend group to do in game roleplay and in game trade economy but they werent into it.

[full geyser]

it is early access. I'd assume every update will pump the numbers up a bit and with a full release it will get put on the radar of a lot of new folks.

[pearl bolt]

no fast travel fun? sounds more like punishment to me

[mighty ermine]

You can carry only a limited amount of bullets / black powder

[finite sage]

Only 3 meals a day

[leaden drum]

...Doesn't the game already do that? You can only slap 40 of each into your gun, no?

[terse dust]

When people are like that, I assume this game (whatever game it is) is the only game in their Steam library.

[remote heath]

just a heads up, you can submit feedback direct to the devs here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfhtwO7TTX6jYURrNBXcvW-isKB4Pgi6ZAktzSHmDAPWZxa8g/viewform

[pearl bolt]

dry crust and cheese.

[turbid frigate]

When you lose your food buff because you begin constantly dying now that you made it on charging boar island and your getting animation locked that not even your two "rare" foods that give you +10 STR for your STR weapon and +10 Vitality and you STILL STRUGGLE and DIE and then LOSE that food buff there is a term for it: high stress anger inducing maso-word-that's-blocked-on-this-server and this "GAME" has it BAD ... I have beaten every Blood Souls game but this "game" takes the CAKE in "Meh to the players fun! Let's make it hard"..

I HATE my boyfriend has chosen this to be the next game we play together.

[tidal aspen]

Turns out trying to attack drowned with ship aint as easy as i thought

[ornate oriole]

Technically you can carry more if you put them in main inventory. Deducated slots hold 40 each, but if you have more, you can use more

[finite sage]

Gruel for the lot of 'ya!

[sinful nacelle]

Our group of people are long time roleplayers, so It's more of a immersion thing

[plain sinew]

I mean, my buddies and I got a plan that once we “beat” our co-op world, that we will start a new one, each sail out to find one of those small islands without any POI’s, allow for a Fast Travel bell to be built there, then require sailing for everything else.

[finite sage]

And they'll spend long times sailing everywhere 🐸

[leaden drum]

This is why games have difficulty settings. You may wish to talk to your partner and ask them to lower the settings. That is an option.

[mighty ermine]

Yeah but, roleplay wise, where would you put all of that gunpowder and bullets ?

[ornate oriole]

Tbh, it may be just me, but sailing doesn't feel tedious here somehow

[turbid frigate]

We are playing it on DEFAULT.. Default should not be like this.

[wide hound]

Skill issue

[ornate oriole]

It's kinda similar vibe to Sid Meier's pirates here for some reason for me, I kinda dig it

[spiral quiver]

um , ammo pouchs and powder horns?...just a thought

[leaden drum]

Don't make me tap the "Early Access" sign. If it's too hard, tweak the settings until the developers find a way to harmonize the numbers later. We call that a "bandaid fix".

[pearl bolt]

actually teach wasnt the most successful pirate, there were many others , some even died rich

[mighty ermine]

Yeah the default difficulty is a bit difficult when you don't know the combat system. Focus on exploring, don't engage hostile ships and run away

[turbid frigate]

Yeah I know it's early access.. But change has to start with conversation, yes?

[wide hound]

Like any Dork Souls game, it's only impossibly difficult until you memorize the attack patterns of the savage boar.

[orchid bison]

Maybe instead of going into a bullet pouch and powder horn on your hip (this would be the dedicated slot), you have the spares in your bag on your back (I wish it would show our backpacks tbh)

[olive ermine]

Normal is just overtuned...

[ornate oriole]

I mean in game, not IRL. In game Teach slam dunked everyone, we can't harass brits or spanish

[grave reef]

idea: v rising has a mechanic where you can dissassemble and reassemble your base en masse. basically puts all your stuff in one massive container that you can then setup in a different location. think it would be awesome to have this

[leaden drum]

High Seas was nonsense so I switched to Calm Waters and now I'm having way more fun. I dunno, it seems like an easy fix to me.

[old depot]

I tried cannonballing the drowned on the ship with the resources I was supposed to gather. nothing.

[turbid frigate]

Maybe if food buffs also didn't get lost..

[pearl bolt]

yeh true, i wonder if theyll add any other famous pyrates eventually?

[finite sage]

Yeah, like you changing to learn how to dodge and parry 😎

[ornate oriole]

It is doeable, but it needs to be direct hit. Hence why I want grapeshot, so we can turn land enemies into mist

[regal musk]

Really wish i didnt have to unequip my ship gear to upgrade it.

[ornate oriole]

Apparently there is Bonnet mentioned in Brethen quest line

[tidal aspen]

they were kinda angry tho

[finite sage]

NOW THIS HERE
this is the most annoying thing in the game for me, 100%

[leaden drum]

Build up stockpiles of ingredients! You'll thank me later. Always keep healing potions on hand, too.

[mighty ermine]

Would love to see Mary Read as either an NPC or a boss

[tall sail]

I have serious doubts about you beating soulslike games, boar charge is so easy to dash to the side and the time window is pretty wide compared to soulslike games where you have so few frames to react properly

[leaden drum]

Aye, I'll grant you that one. I once managed to forget to slap the bracing back on my Ketch. That nearly ended in disaster.

[left helm]

I wonder what crimson deserts pirate update gonna be like. Non ironically could be pretty good

[zealous tapir]

we could use a music channel

[normal meadow]

I think someone needs to cut down on the caffeine

[turbid frigate]

yeah gotta remember where every procedurally generated tree is so you don't smash into them when you're trying to dodge... but that's an anger issue against procedurally generated games...gaming has been going downhill ever since No Man's Sky.. Want me more handcrafted worlds like The Witcher T_T

[mighty ermine]

Yeah. Steede Bonnet is mentionned and honestly, congrats on the devs because they actually did their work on the historical accuracy of the game

[leaden drum]

Counterpoint, if I may: The game does not tell you about the dodge button in the tutorial. I found it by accident.

[turbid frigate]

You are correct..

[ornate oriole]

Tutorial right now is very bad. It's very incorrect in how you should be acting in game during combat.

[faint parcel]

I hate it when they get the historical accuracy of undead wrong.

[astral smelt]

I don't think this game is for you. The games combat heavily includes proper planning and spacing between you and however many enemies you come across, trust me, boars are the least of your concerns but it's just an entry into getting to know the combat with various types of enemies.

For example, looking around you knowing where you can dodge into without getting yourself stuck on terrain is just as important as realising that a ranged enemy cannot shoot you if you put another enemy between you and them.

[regal musk]

Yeah, even checking required resources that i need to gather means i have to take it off, open the workshop, then requip it. Im writing stuff down with pen and paper.

[spiral quiver]

never thought about going into the keybindings tab to see what keys do what?..wild , thats one of the first things i do

[leaden drum]

If you've got the game on Steam, the overlay has a note-taking feature that saves across sessions and you can pin it to your game view. Godsend, that!

[finite sage]

Dodge diagonally or just run to the shore line where there's no trees. Evolve, adapt. You got this. Also once you get copper ingots for the love of god make some fast travel bells

[turbid frigate]

I mistook if for a regular boar so no I didn't expect the charge from 20 yards.. if it was just a few and you weren't slamming your face into every tree and this game could run above 40FPS..

[regal musk]

Tell me more...

[astral smelt]

Literally first thing any gamer does, go straight into settings and get everything set up to how you like it, check keybinds and any other feature and then begin playing.

[ornate oriole]

At the same time, it is not unreasonable to expect game to teach about such basic function as dodging during tutorial, or in tips.

[mighty ermine]

I like it when they add characters that are historically accurate in a game and add fantastic elements on top of it

[leaden drum]

No, I do habitually, but I found myself caught off-guard by the complete lack of mention. Especially considering how vital it is.

[peak ferry]

To be fair, the dodge button isn't really a dodge either. It's like a small lurch in whatever direction. That needs improved upon IMO.

[old depot]

Even the Thorn Fiddlers were angry

[turbid frigate]

yeah I did that first thing. got a bell on each island.. its losing the "expensive" food buffs that's graying my hair.

[finite sage]

Same, kinda like when they added Santa to Fallout 2 😌

[leaden drum]

Is... Is that not what dodging is?

[potent oar]

I arrived at the swamp expecting to find new enemies and was disappointed. They have the exact same attack patterns as the enemies in the starting areas, only the appearance changes. 😭

[ornate oriole]

Me when I have to spam it to dodge Richard's grab

[finite sage]

Then use the ones you can afford. If you're dying regardless don't waste them

[pearl bolt]

i hope they do something with the health bar tbh, half the time i cant tell if the food buff is working or not. i know the timers there but my bar sometimes just stays the same, and without numbers its anyones guess.

[faint parcel]

The swamp is a huge disappointment all around.

[astral smelt]

You definitely haven't been to the swamp biome then lol.

[spiral quiver]

you mean the fact it gets bigger doesn't clue you into anything?..

[leaden drum]

One moment - let me load into my save...

[grave girder]

is the game becoming unplayable co-op for everyone??

[peak ferry]

I don't call a small electric slide move a dodge. I don't even call it a Dash either.

[pearl bolt]

the point being, sometimes it doesnt

[finite sage]

It has i-frames, it's a dodge

[late girder]

Does anyone know if the later ships come with a bed? Respawning on an island when dying while boarding an enemy ship sucks

[mighty ermine]

Well the swamp is the last area they added so it's kind of "OK" that it's not as polished as the mountains or the jungle

[remote heath]

they do not

[spiral quiver]

mines never failed , pretty wild yours does ,maybe you're just too inept to see it

[faint parcel]

Have you tried not dying?

[astral smelt]

It's a dash for you to get out of the way of an attack, it is not an I-frame, which is what people are probably confusing it for, it is not a dodge to prevent damage, it is a dash for repositioning.

[ornate oriole]

Does it tho? Richards seemed to ignore my dodge few times and still landed a hit on me with swing attacks

[remote heath]

it's i-frames man. I've dodged while still being fully in range of an attack and it just doesn't land.

[feral eagle]

Best way to kill Richards is use a bleed damage weapon, heal a lot with potions and poke him a couple times and run away. Keep doing that and he will die.. eventually

[pearl bolt]

id stop with the crass comments if i were u, i use baiters as practice dummys.

[finite sage]

It does, can even dodge AoE attacks like the Grenadier's bombs if you time it right

[peak ferry]

They really do need to hit fix the healing potion not filing the bar when you drink bug. That is annoying and a loss of resource.

[tidal aspen]

Food without vitality buff always increases health by 1 extra bar

[spiral quiver]

wouldn't be my first time

[turbid frigate]

It prolly is not for me.. So far I still prefer Enshrouded.

[feral eagle]

Oops wrong reply lol

[regal musk]

oh you can pin it too? super clutch

[ornate oriole]

Probably just my luck then. Cuz he disregarded it few times, which costed me 3 deaths. Got him on 4th try, kited him and shot him down with musket

[astral smelt]

My apologies, I have a skill issue of not taking damage so I didn't notice. (I learned something here, thanks.)

[pearl bolt]

maybe not, but it could be your last

[turbid frigate]

But sadly... my boyfriend prefers this game and won't even try Enshrouded.

[finite sage]

...did you play solo or in online co-op?

[remote heath]

Food does need a buff or something. Late-game recipes from like badlands or swamp that still only add +5 attribute are 100% useless. Once you've unlocked seafood platter, that's the one you ALWAYS use.

[ornate oriole]

Solo

[spiral quiver]

i'm sorry , is that a threat?

[feral eagle]

I did not care for enshrouded but I have 100 hours in this lol

[astral smelt]

Oh that's a shame, me and my girlfriend LOVED enshrouded together, it's very similar combat style to Windrose. Keep trying to convince them!

[leaden drum]

Pin it and change the opacity, yeah! It's great. Fantastic for puzzle games.

[finite sage]

Get a new boyfriend ggez 😎

[regal musk]

This is such a cool feature. Thank you for sharing. I never knew.

[leaden drum]

...You may want to talk to them about this

[turbid frigate]

It's so good. And it keeps getting better.

[finite sage]

Then it can't be the co-op jank, either. Weird. I didn't have any issues dodging the 1st boss's swipes

[pearl bolt]

no, why would i threaten u? u aint that much of a problem, it was a joke in reply to you non poignant comment. please get over yourself

[peak ferry]

Um... There are level 10 of buff from every food item, and 20.

[astral smelt]

The amount of hours I've spent just building and figuring out the new water mechanic, oh and the fact we both love Capybaras just made our day when we saw the update announcement of them falling off a hill lol.

[turbid frigate]

the music in this game though is ... so good.. for now. I hope there's variation but for now it does hit the spot.

[leaden drum]

I think you can even paste images into your notes if you need things like screenshots or diagrams in there. Don't quote me on that though.

[turbid frigate]

YES! And now we get to salvage and upgrade armor!.

[astral smelt]

They definitely need more Sea Shanties, it's such an amazing genre of music specifically for games like this.

[regal wagon]

Stew is almost ready.

[leaden drum]

Sure enough, you can paste images in there.

[unreal solstice]

anyone have a reliable musket I can touch.

[finite sage]

😏

[regal wagon]

No you're not touching my musket. Buy me dinner first.

[night zinc]

anyone have a spare rapier of devastation or one I can hold for recipe

[pearl bolt]

what an amazing animal, so laid back with that totally stoned look.

[spiral quiver]

don't do that again

[unreal solstice]

No dinner, but just some cheap wine from a paper sack

[turbid frigate]

Also.. desperately need a pause in offline mode... especially if logging out to main menu means you lose your food buff.. which is SUCH a big deal at least where I am in the game where it counts for half your health. T_T

[hasty swan]

is anyone on the first boss? i think i might need some help trying to beat him

[astral smelt]

Have you seen them riding crocodiles? You should totally take a look at that. (This isn't bait, it's legit)

[peak ferry]

I found the Plague Pistol in the Swamp. I'm only Lvl 11! 😊

[ancient charm]

i fully expect to see a screenshot of you two sat a dinner table with all those buildable meals placed on it, before touching muskets.

[finite sage]

In solo I do agree, pause would be a QoL improvement

[real solar]

Did they ever tell when the small update like fixes and stuff will come? Or is that just something that could be from day to day kinda thing?

[turbid frigate]

A HUGE one.

[leaden drum]

If you need some support I'd be happy to lend a hand in gathering materials and building. Progression is character-based anyway so I literally could not help you skip parts of the game even if I wanted to. My little tavern could use the break.

[peak ferry]

I want a Hammerhead or Great White mount...

[regal wagon]

[leaden drum]

Granted, I don't know how much help I'll actually be because I do in fact play on Calm Waters, the easy difficulty setting (it's more fun for me, so)

[brittle geyser]

just check announcements

[golden gazelle]

hey guys any1 got an extra good rapier pls?

[regal wagon]

And I want a 120 gun first rate. But here we are.

[astral smelt]

Oh man I need to log on and send you guys a pic of my spooky swamp base... I took inspiration from Pirates of the Caribbean where they first went to meet Calypso in the swamps.

[left helm]

Its not 100 percent procedurally generated, only the placement of the islands is

[golden gazelle]

any1 got time to help a newbie get a good rapier?

[finite sage]

You can be bait 😎

[real solar]

they're talking about the big update in 6 months, which doesnt really matter to me. But they didnt specify the small update that will clean the game and bring 40 new building pieces

[astral smelt]

I love the use of beams on the ceiling! I actually did something similar but I used wicker fences.

[thin dragon]

what now ?

[blazing cliff]

Let's see ittt

[regal wagon]

https://tenor.com/view/squidward-spare-change-spare-some-change-begging-poor-gif-18999842

[real solar]

wait, start over, build or have fun

[golden gazelle]

exactly what im doing homie

[astral smelt]

Terraforming today are we?

[jovial nest]

why is there so much AI-slop here these days? 🙁

[turbid frigate]

Very cute tavern! I got it though. I killed all those pigs after figuring out their stupid timers.

[next garnet]

the times are a changin

[finite sage]

Hollowed out log or?

[leaden drum]

I keep saying I can't build worth a damn and then a good building system like this just makes me hyperfixate for like 2 days straight.

[pearl bolt]

honestly dont care for a road map, they seem to be a bit of an own goal for devs anyway. damned if u do, pestered if u dont.

[thin dragon]

I guess I can build a cooler base

[real solar]

damn right

[mossy beacon]

cant i use dedicated server and same time play in that same server with one pc or i need 2 pc for that ?

[jovial nest]

not in a good way it seems... it's lazy in a wrong way...

[regal wagon]

I was going to build a base in the swamp. Till I realized I couldn't sail my frigate into the inlet of the island I wanted. I was then immediately put off of building another base.

[leaden drum]

Yeah, you'll learn the tells for enemy attacks. They have certain rhythms to them - watch them, listen to them. Oh, and - red flash means you can't parry or block it, so dodge! Usually means guns or charges.

[pearl bolt]

yeh the main quest islands are the same, just the map layout is different afaik

[next garnet]

thats cause normies are running it into the ground, the cutting edge is actually quite amazing when used by the smart ones

[leaden drum]

I tried to be coy and parry a musketeer once. He shot me. Shoulda seen that coming.

[jovial nest]

i mean i spent 15 minutes to make this to commemorate 1 million sold... and I just wish peopel would spend even the smallest amount of effort for their memes 😄

[molten oyster]

؟؟

[sinful storm]

how to repair ship ?

from damage, is it just repair kits ?

[remote heath]

You could keep making new worlds, rerolling the generative RNG, until you find a swamp with the inlet you want

[left helm]

To be fair the boars are literally awfully balanced lol I have some level 15 boars on one of my swamp islands and the charging boars are definitely one of the hardest trash in the game. Those and the enraged ones or whatever lmao

[copper depot]

????

[high idol]

hm

[remote heath]

Repair kits. :/

[fair light]

You can run the dedicated server software off the same PC. Just need a little more RAM and a decent CPU to handle it.

[golden gazelle]

need some help can pay in memes

[jovial nest]

@left helm charging boars are easy, when they blink, you block and that's perfect block ,they'll fall on their butt and then you slash them up...

[pale lodge]

discord lag or just me?

[remote heath]

Damn, this slow-mode on chat is annoying AF. 30 seconds between messages? Are there really that many people here to require that? One back-and-forth exchange takes a full minute.

[paper relic]

I'm having troubles with discord too

[hardy nexus]

I had to completely rejoin this server after whatever just happened with discord

[spice bridge]

Discord problems for everyone stay calm

[jovial nest]

makes one write longer and more thought out messages instead of <5 words per message with the whole point spread along 5+ messages... I like it. should be the norm 🙂

[worthy ravine]

rip 300 hour discord call lol

[left helm]

If that even is true that is incredibly misleading as charging attacks and especially red ones are not supposed to be able to be blocked on anything else lmao

[remote heath]

It looks like there are 15 people in this Discord right now. wtf is the point of slow mode?

[fair light]

Ships can be repaired with repair kits or by using a wharf near your ship. The repair cost at the wharf is just a bit of wood.

[remote heath]

Just use the Musket and keep them at range. 1-2 shots should put any boar down

[jovial nest]

where does it say red ones are not supposed to be blocked?

[jovial nest]

there's normally over 11 THOUSAND... discord is having an issue

[real solar]

Did the discord server just break down?

[abstract aspen]

i know there's a small window where you can parry the damage of a charge attack for some reason, but i always still fly away

[hazy lance]

server was channel-less for us until just now, with a red exclamation mark on white background on the server icon.

[jovial nest]

there's nothign weird about this. Discord is centralized service, so if they have some issue with cloudflare (it's always the damn cloudflare isn't it or DNS) then we can do nothing but wait till it's over...

I come from the ancient times where IRC had net splits ALL THE TIME and not having them once or twice a day was weird,

[olive ermine]

Its happening bois:

Windrose discord is off on my computer but not on my cell

Discord is straight broken on my computer

[plucky igloo]

Is this a good one to buy?

Its good probably more later game than early game. early game you should get the one that debuffs the enemies reload speed probably

[regal musk]

I'm having this issue on my PC as well.

[marsh arch]

I've gotten weird phishing DM's from other servers having this issue atm

[queen spruce]

discord is saying they are having issues

Man my stomach dropped when it happened, i was so sure i got banned. And i really like this discord too xD

[brittle geyser]

https://discordstatus.com/ is where I got that. every server im in with more than about 10,000 users is down and they're slowly popping back up like this one

Same. Mods in here aren’t as bad as some others looking at HD2 discord so I didn’t think I was banned

[dry night]

ope

[spiral quiver]

naw , mods in here are pretty chill, you really got to do something to get a ban

[hazy lance]

Depends on whether discord has figured out what is messing up bigger servers currently.

so far we're 19k back now- 20k

Yes, I made a server on a PC I had lying around and copied the save over. You have to edit the config files to point to it, but that's about it

[dry pecan]

tbh the combat was super frustrating for me until i figured out how to properly dodge. i went from death looping constantly to almost never death looping. just single deaths here and there

[coral fable]

i got all the fish from one spot

[olive ermine]

Properly dodging = chain three dodges to clear enemy ?

[carmine nimbus]

You don't get vitality from talents that I can see... so you can do both?

It should be possible by pulling exe.save files and porting them to the rented server files (ex. Nitrado) its done on other similar hosted games

[regal musk]

The only frustrating part about combat is aboard ships.

[silent vessel]

hey are there mods in windrose?

[astral smelt]

Each enemy type has a specific dodge that you need to do to avoid being hit by their retaliation. For example: Crocodiles, it's dodge backwards twice after doing two hits.

[true ether]

Yea

[uneven gyro]

WhIs mystery of expedition quest just doing things? it wont track

[regal musk]

?

[silent vessel]

ifso, is there a PVE mod so people cant raid or destroy others stuff?

[pseudo cypress]

Is the fishing rod just for fish or can you get other stuff

[dry pecan]

or dodging to the side, dodging forward to get behind them. but yea largely chain dodging to clear get enough distance to walk and rebuild stamina.

Huh? Reread the talent that’s at the top of the left tree

[astral smelt]

Far left on the talent tree, gives you 120 health (vitality)

[hot plover]

You can get a weapon, that's also a fish

[olive ermine]

i will no longer engage in melee against crocs due to how poor the melee is. I just 2 tap them with musket and move on.

[coral fable]

or just walk up to them with a blunderbuss and blow its head off

[frank coral]

crocs attack are one of the easiest to parry though

[merry jacinth]

dodge to avoid a hit, attack them a certain amount of times, sometimes fit in an extra attack or two depending on if you can stagger them with that one. Some attacks also interrupt their attacks.

[neat mist]

I've done every mission except one, Mystery of the Expedition...

[carmine nimbus]

Enough points to do both. And extra health is not the same as extra vitality.

[brittle geyser]

Not plague crocs

[uneven gyro]

ok well ... what is it

[abstract aspen]

i use them as a health pack since they're incredibly easy to parry

[radiant kettle]

Arrrrrrrrr! All quests done, everything level 15. What do I do now? 😃 Do we have any idea of the update ETA? Sorry if this has been asked a lot, new here 🏴‍☠️

[frank coral]

plague crocs too, easier to parry than dodge the lunge

[regal musk]

They have the same attacks as regular crocs, save for one additional unblockable tail whip

[merry jacinth]

Has to be ragebait... the crocs have 1 attack. It has a huge windup and is crazy easy to parry. The only other attack they do is counterable with a dodge

[queen spruce]

wait... and hope for interesting mods.

[dry pecan]

they posted an update today in #│announcements

[frank coral]

you absolutely can dodge, but they are really really easy to parry

[radiant kettle]

NICE. Ther's SOME mods already?

[thin garnet]

Now. You build

[patent sable]

wtf going with game man ,, it just freezes and can't do nothing

[neat mist]

How did you do mystery of the expedition? I have no idea where to go with it. I also can't remember which island I got the quest on...

[olive ermine]

yeah but the 2 mates it called from swamp block 3 start piling up and taking away my ground, and then I get stuck in a rock, puddle, or a clump of trees and then laser guided snap attack picks me up and throws me around. Again untill they make melee combat responsive and satisfying I will not duel a single croc

[frank coral]

bigger problem with plague crocs is that i can never find enough of them, i need a lot of the bile

[brittle geyser]

Not if you want to keep your health. I have a temporal build. Might try too angry to die though

[patent sable]

been working great since launch not a single thing wrong ,,, now Freezing all the time , have to shut down my comp

[astral smelt]

Dodge in a way that lines the crocodiles up in a line, that way you're only fighting one at a time.

[queen spruce]

yes but I haven't really looked for whats out there yet.

[uneven gyro]

dont think he did

[steady meadow]

test?

uh..guess the discord burping again

[olive ermine]

u can do that for so long and it is unfun. multiple enemy engagements are just unfun, slow and tedious

[halcyon latch]

The comments in the new support page are funny 😄

[ruby tusk]

Is crit damage double or like 50%?

[jovial nest]

yes, behave...

[astral smelt]

You don't need to play the way I do, just find what's fun for you and do it that way. Technically you don't even need to fight anything other than the bosses of each zone if you really want to avoid combat, just run and loot everything. (And the key holders in POI's)

[remote heath]

Ultimately, the only build where there's no risk and the ability to 1-2 shot nearly any enemy (even Plague Crocs) is pure Precision build with musket. Having tried everything, this is clearly the winner.

[true ether]

Yes

[stray steeple]

what is the best build for soul eater?

[silent vessel]

?

[uneven pier]

70% + buffs

[neat mist]

I just thought when he said "All quests done" that he had done all the quests...

[carmine nimbus]

I thought about temporal health stuff, but usually I only take damage when an enemy is near dead and I get greedy on an attack or two.

[frank coral]

its like 60% damage and 10% chance base i think
not sure why stat page doesnt tell that, it only tells whats added ontop

[dry pecan]

it honestly kinda sounds like you just don't even want to enjoy it. people have given you tips and different things to try over the last couple days that i've seen and you've been super negative about it every time. I get that it's tough and you don't personally like it but you shouldn't expect it to change because of your opinion alone.

[brittle geyser]

Fair. Yeah I’ll probably switch my build

[olive ermine]

Fun for me is a combat that is made to feel and look good. Not in game currently

[merry jacinth]

I have level 9 gear and went into a sacrificial altar to fight the crocs right off the bat by accident. Didnt die. That's not combat being unresponsive, that's just poor awareness. If youre dodging constantly, you should be aware that you arent dodging into a wall. Also it isnt a "laser guided" attack... you just dodge out of it. They dont have any chain attacks, so even 3 fighting at once is pretty easily parriable.

Your complaints are just skill issues. Nothing wrong with that since there's plenty of playstyles and ranged seems to work better for you, but that doesnt mean melee is bad. This is the first game where Ive actually enjoyed having a melee build. I use a pistol, but only for the take aim bonus.

[olive ermine]

i have tried over 100 things in melee combat. It doesn't work nor it feels right

[jovial nest]

holey beach balls... server has over 40k users.. .that explains the amount of text here...

[uneven gyro]

Anyone who says something like "i get its tough" should immediately be disregarded. Game isnt tough. Its just memort. Leave the dude alone

[astral smelt]

Tell us all what combat should feel like to you, giving criticism without offering a solution isn't beneficial at all

[carmine nimbus]

I'm gonna switch out my bleed rapier and pistol for the greatsword that gives health back on perfect blocks.

[neat mist]

Tell us some of the things you have tried, eh?

[dry pecan]

for you. it doesn't work or feel right for you. plenty of us are having a great time with this combat.

[crystal sage]

https://tenor.com/view/peaky-blinders-no-fighting-no-fucking-fighting-fight-fuck-gif-16259749058826278291

[green forge]

its fun , mobs are just op at,

[brittle geyser]

Agility is definitely fun. Crude is my favorite, but if you keep an agility build, the soul eater will be great for you

[olive ermine]

i am sorry for you then

[frank coral]

i dont like this combat, its clunky and does not feel good to me, but its not very hard either, lots of things work, plenty of ways to kill stuff, and even more ways to cheese it

[jovial nest]

@crystal sage language ;D

[astral smelt]

Mobs are meant to hit hard, if you don't want them to nuke you, increase your defensive gear level to match the enemy level, or go above their level. Significant damage reduction.

[radiant kettle]

I love the souls-like combat. 10/10

[dry pecan]

sorry for me? I'm enjoying this combat. what are you talking about?

[carmine nimbus]

I wouldn't engage with Silchas. They're jsut a massive whiner and nothing in the game is good enough for them. They really should have just refunded the game and found something else to play.

[green niche]

That's only the online number too. About 120 thousand total

[merry jacinth]

"I tried 100 things" but somehow not the things that the people who arent struggling have done?

[neat spear]

ya combat needs an overhaul like cancel animations when I want to block and active blocking needs a larger window then 1 millisecond.

[neat mist]

Not going to tell us what you have tried other than facetanking?

[nova bear]

my strat 2 strike dodge back repeat ships aim low so cannonballs dont fly over when the ocean moves the ship

[obtuse quartz]

Are there any plans to add mannequins/ weapon racks so I can display my collection?

[carmine nimbus]

There are weapons and talents that increazse the time frame for a perfect block.

[hollow siren]

would like to see more decorations, like tribal totems, masks, decor items to put on shelves

[olive ermine]

to be satisfied with this barebones system is kinda sad ngl.

[limber hull]

im surprised yall are still talking to a wall...

[remote heath]

Really, if anyone is struggling with combat even around level 10, just spec into precision, put talents towards ranged combat, and use a musket. There's no comparison.

[brittle geyser]

Issue is we get 12 talents for 105 talent points possible

[merry jacinth]

People will complain about parry and block as if there arent weapons that let you parry and block easier... "This tiktok guide said this weapon is S tier!" as they continue to die over and over

[carmine nimbus]

Mod in more talent points.

[queen spruce]

you were complaining about not being able to parry 3 guys at once earlier. Sounds like a skill issue getting in range o 3 guys at once.

[astral smelt]

The only combat I am having an issue with right now, is ship boarding, because there's so many things you get "stuck" on like cannons, your crew, etc. It does feel like their hitboxes need to be like 50% in size so you can move a little bit more free on the deck of a ship, otherwise we'll all need to take two handed halberd builds just for boarding parties which is not a fun pigeon hole.

[jovial nest]

@olive ermine yeah, it's like the game came out few weeks ago or something.,.. it's so unpolished...

Wait...

[brittle geyser]

Nah. I’d like to not corrupt my game files and make multiplayer impossible

[dry pecan]

guess i'll be sad if that means finding joy in a game instead of nitpicking it to death and complaining for days on end

[spiral quiver]

oh how I've missed you're meaningful insights into the game since yesterday , with how much you hate the game why are you still here complaining? , non of us really want to hear what you have to say anymore.

[abstract aspen]

to be fair, the weapon might be, but not the player

[hardy obsidian]

Divi-Divi trees respawn in 6 hrs?

[nova bear]

its almost like were still in early access or something

[neat mist]

Hi I am @olive ermine , I will deride everything, try nothing, and complain endlessly without being specific about anything

[thick meadow]

Thought trees never respawned

[halcyon latch]

how did they push out a fully fledged support site this quickly? oO

[timid crescent]

Why do you have to yuck peoples' yum? Let people like what they like, don't be a jerk.

[obtuse quartz]

Came out In Early Access but it should play like a 13yo full release

[uneven pier]

mostly

[frank coral]

only really struggled like right at the start of game when you got nothing, which is to be expected
then its alright, again, i am not a fan it does not feel smooth and fluid, but its not hard, everything is manageable and there are plenty ways to cheese things

[merry jacinth]

LOL exactly. An S tier weapon is only S tier if the wepaon is the bottleneck for you. If you die before getting a hit off, doesnt matter how good the weapon is. People gotta realize the sturdy rapier exists

[green forge]

just not smart, i died like 50 times just geting to lvl 2

[astral smelt]

Skill issue.

Edit: If you're doing the same thing 50 times and keeps failing, you have a lack of problem solving skills.

[rapid wadi]

a guess - its a frontend to their big tracker for dev

[main sleet]

how did i get hired npc`s assigned to a base?

[olive ermine]

I have boosted my HP and stamina. I tried controling enemy with long range - they close distance way too fast, tried playing supper safe and doding every hit= i end up fighting 2 mobs for 20 minutes (exageration but its too slow and tedious) I tried boosting my main stat with food to increase my dmg, ended up getting stuck in trees and killed. Tried blocking a bit- got killed, tryed parryin, got sidejumped without visibility on the side. I have spent a lot of time trying to make the game read my inputs and everything ends up frustrating, unfun, fake difficulty that feels off. I have spent too much time trying to solve the games issues with stats, poisiotning and otherwise. I pick who i duel now. Its that janky and unfun

[frank coral]

open the station you want to assign them to and click worker tab

[spiral quiver]

man..50 times ..have you tried pokemon online? might be a better fit

[limber hull]

ima level with u Silchas....just sounds like your bad and want things easy. get good.

[brittle geyser]

Turn down difficulty settings bruh

[abstract aspen]

One just gotta play the game.. looking for a meta build especially so early on, is not good. different people like different weapons and play styles. in the right hands, everything is op

[green forge]

we just suck lol

[dry pecan]

you go to the crafting station they're meant to boost and click workers at the top, then assign them to it

[main sleet]

thanks!

[nova bear]

an easier difficulty max difficulty isnt made for everyone

[timid crescent]

100% skill issue.

[olive ermine]

this is not complaning. this is called providing meaningfull feedback and wanting better, more functional systems in place

[obtuse quartz]

Might need to turn the difficulty down boss

[olive ermine]

its normal. Normal cannot be this overtuned

[timid crescent]

The system functions for most of us, sorry bud, but you're in the minority here

[pearl bolt]

just put the difficulty down, till u get better at the game, aint no shame

[astral smelt]

If you have trouble with combat, try different weapons, perhaps the playstyle of the weapon you're good with hasn't been used by you yet. Experiment!

Also, not all weapons are good at every situation. Rapiers are great for single target duels, but terrible for boarding ships.

[carmine nimbus]

Or leave the difficulty up and lower the enemy health so it feels less like a slog.

[buoyant condor]

Maybe the game isnt for you then.

[rapid wadi]

in the game

[olive ermine]

regular bot reflex

[timid crescent]

What blows my mind is how easy the fighting is if you just use the dash a couple times a fight

[frank coral]

i went through everything on normal alone, not really any problems outside of frigate boarding, but thats just due to low performance there

[dry pecan]

so, what you're saying is, skill issue, skill issue, under powered weapons and lacking food usage, poor timing, poor environmental awareness, bad block timing (skill issue).

[timid crescent]

We had some guy complaining in here a couple days ago that even on hard the fighting was way too simplified and easy.

[spiral quiver]

no , actually it's you complaining , and basically saying you suck at adapting to gameplay ,then coming on here and trying to sidetrack everyone elses fun and satisfaction , the thing you haven't gotten yet is we're all pretty tired of you and your attitude.

[rapid wadi]

maybe also performance issues - before I tweaked my settings I was dropping frames and that sometimes got me killes

[merry jacinth]

"Stuck in trees" isnt a problem with the enemies...
"Fighting 2 mobs for 20 min" isnt a problem with enemies... you have to hit them...
"No visibility to the side" again... not a problem with the enemies
"Trying to read inputs" what? The game is reading inputs, but you cant parry if you are in the middle of a swing. You cant just spam attack. If you attack slowly, land 2 hits and then wait for a parry. If 2 hits land just fine, maybe try 3 next time, and go back to 2 at a time if it doesnt work.

Try: parrying AND hitting them without running into trees and without some insane tunnel vision...

[dry pecan]

entirely possible

[brittle geyser]

Yeah honestly I wish I could parry more but parrying isn’t as good as other games so I dodge instead

[green forge]

doing much better now that im into the game and not in rags

[jaunty vault]

ahoy! so question about temporal health and the tracker set... i know the answer is probably no, but im gonna ask anyway... will the healing buff from tracker set improve temporal health gain, as it states "all health"?

[astral smelt]

Kite enemy to shoreline. Get on your ship. BROADSIDE that land lover, profit.

(Also works for mass farming wood from trees)

[olive ermine]

yes its extremely easy. That is why its bad its think janky. I dont lose to "enemy has complex patterns" i lose to game not responding, camera acting dumbo etc"

[obtuse quartz]

Fr, hit 2-3 times, dash out of range or parry, hit 2-3 times. Combat feels hard if your gear sucks, but thats easily fixed with crafting.

[uneven pier]

you forgot the warning indicator....

[merry jacinth]

YUP. Personally a huge fan of the cutlass. Swap the whole group a few times, then just shoot the most annoying guy to take him fully out

[coral fable]

lol i do that to get wood faster 😛

[frank coral]

just control the camera yourself like i guess majority people do

[olive ermine]

there is countless ways to chese every enemy. doing it feels like I am evading the problem of games design and cheapens the experience

[timid crescent]

I'm sorry dude but IG it sucks to suck

[frank rapids]

I prefer playing on a controller, but the input lag on dodge is murderous

[astral smelt]

Game is meant to be beaten the way you want to beat it. The game gives you the tools, up to you on how to use them.

[scenic bear]

Question: do tree's respawn?

[neat mist]

I tried looking at the clothes and weapons, matching their boosts to my stats, choosing talents that match my playstyle, then playing the way that those perks and abilities suggested.

Worked perfectly.

I didn't try " boosting my main stat with food to increase my dmg, ended up getting stuck in trees and killed". Saying the food made you be stuck in trees is just hilarious.

[merry jacinth]

"extremely easy" -> "i died to 2 enemies after fighting them for 20 min"

The camera goes where you put it... stop using lock on if it's not working for you

[dry pecan]

"camera acting dumbo" = you poorly controlling it

[buoyant condor]

From readying their rant, i dont think they even have a ship yet.

[hot pumice]

arty the devil out of a swamp island with brig for an entire night, tar and wood everywhere in morning

[abstract aspen]

i looove the soul eater. grouping as many enemies as i can and use the special attack, then clean up with one or two sweeps. so satisfying

[fickle walrus]

Is there a character build channel?

[jovial nest]

I mean seriously, nobody's saying that everything absolutely fine and there's no need for any changes or fixes or anything... but have you tried reducing the damage of the enemies and increased your health from the world options?

they are there for a REASON.

Game has issues, nobody's saying there's nothing to make better. we just don't think that game has to change for us to have FUN with it. Challenge can be fun, learning how to play the game can be fun, no matter if you die thousand times...

If you think game's not in correct place, WAIT for 6-12 months, and come back and see what has been done to the combat and difficulty settings... it's first few weeks of Early Access.

[nova bear]

bought my wifes first pc to play this shes a day in to playing pc for the first time and wrecks on hard its not shameful to turn the diff down your good bro

[brittle geyser]

real question though: why are there no mire pickaxes/axes? why stop at iron?

[neat mist]

Gotcha. "I should be able to facetank every enemy"

[merry jacinth]

I too ram myself against a tree after eating dinner. I wish they added a way to eat dinner with my family without getting lost in a forest afterward

[frank coral]

probably to come later on

[scenic bear]

Does anyone know if tree's respawn?

[neat mist]

I feel your pain

[astral smelt]

No, but you can plant them.

[spiral quiver]

friggin awesome lol

[hot pumice]

dividivi trees seem to respawn

[frank coral]

divi divi do respawn, others dont

[abstract aspen]

that's biiig. I remember my first time switching from console to pc..my aim was godlike but my movement was absolutely garbage haha

[scenic bear]

Ok that's fine Tysm!

[merry jacinth]

So stop cheesing them...? "The cheese is so annoying!" he says as he cheeses the enemies in a PvE game. You have full control over that...

[olive ermine]

i have gamed too long. Normal should be a baseline i can play without effort. It is not the case. I do not lower my standards to comply to your internal policies of task forcing an EA game with objectively janky combat

[dry pecan]

this is a canon experience when switching from console lol

[scenic bear]

Gotcha

[feral trout]

i feel we need more rounded corner pieces tho build and more roof choices. most of the roofs are straw or grass

[brittle geyser]

"EA" and "janky" in the same sentence is crazy

[uneven pier]

if that were true you wouldnt be moaning about this game at every single turn.

[nova bear]

you can also say your just looking to fight unfurtanetly youll loose here too lol

[obtuse quartz]

Wait really? You can farm trees with the ship???

[neat mist]

No.Normal is effort, hard is a lot of effort, you are describing easy, or noob level

[dry pecan]

this argument is just weak. "the standard difficulty should be catered specifically to my (low) skill level"

[frank coral]

they said we are getting some new building pieces in upcoming patch so maybe soon

[olive ermine]

keep putting words in my mouth if that keeps u sleeping at night. I played games way better and way harder than this that felt satisying

[astral smelt]

Remember, ever enemy can be dispatched easily by just bringing a bigger gun:

Pistol no work? Musket
Musket no work? Blunderbus
Blunder no work? 36-pound cannons.

[feral trout]

when is the patch

[hot pumice]

shore bombardment is a thing

[uncut heart]

Only issue I've ever had with the combat is lacking block stam, and gang warfare 😂 fighting 5 bores is TUFF. But this dude seems like he's never. Played a game with melee combat before 😂 Bros on 40 fov and using lock on, can't see anything but his target 😂

[desert knot]

I am having trouble jpoining my friends on my Nitrado server... I use Mobile Hotspot for internet connection and after finding the server and entering the password for our game it just continues to say loading ?? Any suggestions

[neat mist]

So... go play them?

[jovial nest]

we humans are very adept finding ways to break any games (not just video games, but social games, laws etc) rules and then abuse those holes to our benefit...

in a sense you're right, but in another sense stopping yourself from "cheesing" can rob huge part of the enjoyment of the game as well...

surely the devs will find these badly broken systems and will fix them over the next months.

[frank coral]

its not one or the other in this case, combat is indeed pretty janky, but you are also bad at it, its both

[copper anchor]

or doing a Fornite approach, just take high ground and then build around the enemies

[obtuse quartz]

Bro skipped 12 and 24. Went from shot gun to orbital nuke

[astral smelt]

Yup just shoot at them, the aiming is a bit weird to get used to but you'll be clear cutting trees quickly using cannons, then you can just run around and pick up all that free lumber and any other cannonfodder that wandered too closely to your deforestation tactics.

[raw imp]

Did someone test the || dragonbreath vs reliable blunderbuss|| id like to know wich one is best

[brittle geyser]

now i kinda want to try the minimum FOV to turn it from a challenge to a horror game

[astral smelt]

My favourite Strategem is the 380 if you couldn't tell...

[neat mist]

I prefer the latter, but YMMV

[obtuse quartz]

I can't wait to get home from work. The archipelago is fixing to be barren

[jagged wind]

hey thanks for sharing my vid lol just randomly saw this

[olive ermine]

i do not care for these people attacking me here. I am used to it. Nor do i find the myriad of insults harsh. People have uncontrollable desire to defend their purchases and say everything is great when it is simply not. Game is in EA. Lots of systems need reiteration and revision. I will stand my ground. I am breaking no rules here

[novel ingot]

It's a good way to farm plagued trees and tar from coast lines

[jovial nest]

isn't stance points your blocking stamina? i mean you lose them over time and then you can't block anymore...

[uncut heart]

Rko outta no where from a charge pig 😂

[obtuse quartz]

I'm not that far yet, but good to know

[hardy nexus]

dragonsbreath does more damage and has an aoe effect the reliable uses less gunpowder per shot so you can shoot it twice as much with the same amount of gunpowder. I personally use the reliable

[desert knot]

Anyone have this issue

[hot pumice]

30 minutes of bombardment got me a lifetime worth of tar

[frank coral]

not agreeing with your complaints is not the same as saying everything is great

[merry jacinth]

What? I get that in situations where something is absurdly hard or whatever, but there's mods, difficulty sliders, etc? I dont think Ive stumbled upon a cheese yet. If you find one, just dont do that? If you want to cheese an enemy, you have to actually try to do that.

[dry pecan]

goat leader from the side about to be a real problem lol

[obtuse quartz]

Gonna take a Goat Leader to the kidneys

[crystal sparrow]

So can someone care to enlighten me about this whole SSD issue going on and when do you think we will get a patch for it?

[jagged wind]

how long has it been loading for? my guess is the mobile hotspot connection isn't that fast and it will take a while to load the session

[novel ingot]

Before I learned of the bombardments I used crushers for my tree, tar, and plague farm

[olive ermine]

the counter arguments attack me personally, with a sole purpose of defending the game, like i am attacking their well being. It is funny really

[limpid flame]

https://discord.com/channels/1260209458924224542/1496921814431961178

[upbeat lagoon]

It helped me a lot

[rapid wadi]

What I've heard is that this is related to multiplayer and building. I have not seen any unusual activity on my SSD in solo play

[carmine nimbus]

Random thought while poking around in talents. One point in Too Angry to Die is worth 30% of your MaxHP vs 120 HP in Stout Frame. If your MaxHP is 1000, that one talent point is worth 300 hp and a free get out of death once every 16 minutes vs 120 hp all the time.

[queen spruce]

Counterpoint, you called someone "sad" for liking the combat.

[neat mist]

I'm not saying everything is great, but you have nothing positive to say and your reasons for why things are bad are quite juvenile.

[jagged wind]

great to hear! I try to share tips that helped me out a lot haha

[brittle geyser]

Fair point

[astral smelt]

Nobody is attacking you, we're all giving you tips and assistance for you to use in game, which you are pushing back against for some reason, so yes, people will get intolerant of you and stop assisting, this is just the way the world works.

[crystal sparrow]

Well i heard the game rewrites save alot the problem is i have a expensive SSD and i don't really want it to fry extreamly quickly.

[olive ermine]

I expressed how i feel towards their taste. I did not aim to insult

[frank coral]

most counter arguments tell you how to do things and how to solve the problems you have, which you then ignore and keep repeating the same things
most of what you say is indeed you not playing well and not much of it is related to the actual jank the combat does have

[queen spruce]

"I think you have bad taste" is in fact an insult

[brittle geyser]

If you die, does the cooldown timer reset?

[novel ingot]

The difference between insults and criticism is delivery.

[carmine nimbus]

Yeah.

[jovial nest]

you have to throw your ego away. if someone's disagreeing with you, it does not mean they're attacking you personally.

do not attach your personal self and ego into your arguments.

[dry pecan]

intent doesn't equal impact and that was in fact an insult. i just didn't care.

[olive ermine]

and if you read you would understand that i spent too much trying everythign and finding it doesnt work

[neat mist]

And people here are just expressing how they feel about the words you type. Nobody is breaking rules here

[abstract aspen]

devs are aware and working on this. The "issue" isn't as big as some people think it is. As i understood it, it comes from the game constantly saving. modern ssds are able to handle this kind of stuff easily and don't get "fried" from that

[merry jacinth]

"Eating food doesnt cause you to run into trees, that's just you" -> "theyre attacking me personally!"

Dude... people just arent having the same problems as you. The conclusion is the problems are specific to you.

[nova bear]

fr i started her on starcraft to get mouse movement then pushed for keyboard because its what intimidated her the most but now that she is seeing how building in games is so much easier shes rocking it imsure she will be putting some of her builds in the creative section once i teach her about discord lol

[upbeat lagoon]

This is first game after 10 years i have to play on easy lmao. Normally i playing on hard or imposible

[jagged wind]

has anyone figured out respawn timers for things in the game yet? I've heard a lot of different theories lol

[worldly saffron]

This is the first frigate I ever built, after spending all night after the Early Access release farming to build it 🥴 My Galland has been gathering dust since I got something more powerful. Do you dismantle your old ships or keep them?

[crystal sparrow]

Well i understand that but rather SSD have a limit via lifespan on how much they can do it think of it like milage for a car.

[astral smelt]

I promise you haven't tried everything. Keep trying, you'll either get better at the game, or you'll find a build/playstyle which makes the game easier for you to complete.

Both is a win. I wish you the best, captain.

[spiral quiver]

the thing is..NO ONE is having his issues..

[frank coral]

it seems much harder early on than it actually is

[jagged wind]

haha I feel ya!

[upbeat lagoon]

Is like 1sec for the boss Richard

[abstract aspen]

That's definitely a good idea! Let her share her stuff whenever she goes crazy with building haha

[upbeat lagoon]

Wat?

[brittle geyser]

i assume this will be added later? some dummy put this backpack in their guide for inventory management on youtube and i was confused how to get it. they probably havent played past the first biome

[olive ermine]

No . 40h of trying everything possible is indicative where the issue lies to me. I have played too many games and have experience to break down why this combat doesnt work.

[astral smelt]

Galland is such a badass name for a Frigate. I named mine "Obscura Sorrows" because I am roleplaying a spooky vodoo guy in the swamp biome.

[spiral quiver]

ah hell wrong person sorry

[novel ingot]

Less than 6 hours, more than 2 from my experience.

[merry jacinth]

Combat is so difficult. I tried using potions, but then tossed my PC into the bathtub and it got fried. Can the devs fix that? Why did the devs fry my pc?

[dry pecan]

and yet you can't figure out that we're all saying it's a you problem since the rest of us have been able to figure this combat system out.

[upbeat lagoon]

I played Dead Space series on hardcore, Metro Exodus aswell. Or Stalker 2... But i never had problem to kill boar lmao

[jagged wind]

okay yeah thats kinda where i'm at now. hopefully we can start to figuring out more accurate timings as more people play

[obtuse quartz]

My Brethren Ketch "Matilda" is still docked at my pier for my base. She's got no cannons, and her paint is wearing out, but she'll sit in the harbor for ever.

[astral smelt]

If you don't want to explain what's wrong with combat, nobody can assist you. Just saying "This doesn't work" doesn't benefit anyone and you might as well just go to another game.

[jovial nest]

straight to the eye... result, wearing eye patch for weeks... YARRR!!!!

[neat mist]

Plainly the game is badly written with terrible mechanics

[spiral quiver]

dude , face it , literally no one is having the issues you are..just sayin

[olive ermine]

you figured the monster that have 3 attacks top? great job i seem i dont get it. Not after beating every souls ever made. BUt its just lmao skill issue. One game in 30 years on normal defeated me. Cool cool

[jovial nest]

if life gives you lemons, eat it to avoid scurvy, squirt some into yer eye and YARRR YOU'RE A PIRATE!!!!!

[worldly saffron]

The Galland was a French ship 😄 my complete fleet 🥴

[brittle geyser]

Oml. ITS EARLY ACCESS TURN DOWN YOUR DIFFICULTY AND WAIT FOR A FIX

[obtuse quartz]

I think after 40 hrs of fight coastal dodos, I'd probably try a new game

[olive ermine]

This too is incorrect. Many people understand the game has janky ah ground combat

[slow skiff]

all this health damage is just from the alpha wolf grab attack... at 75% enemy damage...

I feel like the alpha wolf grab miiight be a little overtuned

[astral smelt]

We all have our limits. If the game is too difficult for you there's always Minecraft.

[sudden thicket]

Hi, I'm new. I just bought the game. How do you play with other players?

[abstract aspen]

yeah i saw someone calculate it somewhere but the ssd lasts about 10 years (before naturally one will get a new one) and windrose would take about 20-30 years to have an impact on it. it's kind of like being afraid of the sun burning out.

I'm sure if it is as bad as some people think it is, the devs would have immediately stopped everyone and everything. but as i said, modern ssds are fine. older ones might have issues but the game shouldn't run on those old pcs in the first place

[novel ingot]

At least we identified the problem

[queen spruce]

have friends join same server

[desert knot]

My internet speed is quite good on hotspot so not sure why it's not workig

[pure marsh]

On the menu it should say something about Host vs Solo/Offline play select host and make a world in that menu for host world it should have an invite code at the top for people to join you. If you are trying to join one, there should be a 3rd option below Host that lets you enter the code they give you to join

[ancient charm]

difficulty doesn't really exist unless you scale difficulty by adding new attacks that are harder to predict or deal with. every other method to scale difficulty is just adding grind.

therefore complaints about combat really have to do with design, and individual expectations of investment vs outcome/reward, patience levels, styles of combat, and knowledge.

[upbeat lagoon]

Dude i play so many games on hardcore but this is just unbalanced.

[crystal sparrow]

Fair enough because i really enjoy this game i just don't want to fork out money for a new SSD lol

[olive ermine]

good, be sure to report it to the defence force team, while u pretend nothing needs to change

[neat mist]

Speed is not latency. You can have great speed but terrible latency, which is what matters for games.

[worldly saffron]

My New Ship 😎 Named SHKOHORT

[spiral quiver]

no it doesn't , you're just trying to play it as if it's another game and it's not..how about you try playing it as it's own game and stop trying to compare it to other games..might solve i dunno like 95% of your problems..

[queen spruce]

steam cloud saves are broken for a lot of people, happened to me, had to restore a save to salvage my character, happens when you play on different divices. That might be your issue

[random sleet]

game keeps trying to force me to fight 12 lvl 13-15 boats, are you high?

[astral smelt]

Just because you cannot complete it doesn't mean it's unbalanced, I myself have beaten it and all of my friends both solo and together on max difficulty.

[old depot]

Tenor just approved one of my gifs. I feel this server would make very good use of it.

[obtuse quartz]

This is the only game you've ever been bad at? Sounds made up.

[ancient charm]

what if i beat the game on max difficulty solo and still think its unbalanced?

what if i'm actually a pro player better than you even. but still hold this opinion?

[jovial nest]

i never throw anything away... running still my first Kingston SSD NOW series that was THE first consumer priced SSD back in the day... it's on my NAS acting as OS hard drive 😄

[halcyon latch]

Finally found a ruins with spices, so I can craft more Gazpacho

[abstract aspen]

naaah youre fine. ofc if you're still worried, you can wait a little until they work it out :)

[dry pecan]

i am not someone who is good at these types of games and i was able to figure this out. The worst part for me is the plague warriors when i run out of bullets and then i will just kite them away from where i'm trying to be and then escape them. you clearly haven't figured out the play style that works for you and are too proud to turn the difficulty down and choose to blame the mechanics instead when the only time you've actually explained what you didn't like about it blatantly showed that you weren't paying attention, using the food correctly, or controlling your camera properly. all issues that are yours to fix. not the dev's.

[surreal sierra]

nooooo! The Tortuga VC got reset! That was almsot at like 300 hours

[novel ingot]

The combat is relatively easy. If you do the stats right and use the right foods + talents + potions + equipment sets + weapon skills + proper upgrades. Combat isn't much of a threat outside being grabbed and that the Z3 is a pain on higher difficulties.

I'm not pretending nothing has to change, but your personal experiences don't validate reality.

[astral smelt]

How do you pronounce Skohort? Is it like Yoghurt pronounced like Cohort?

[abstract aspen]

every pc i had, i just threw away the case and kept everything else..one might need it one day

[carmine nimbus]

Use your heavy attack with melee to break their posture and the warriors get a little easier.

[old depot]

I haven't figured out how to break into that community yet

[dry pecan]

ohhh i hadn't thought of that. I'll give that a try!

[olive ermine]

neither does yours

[ancient charm]

what if every discussion about combat didn't revolve around easy vs hard, but was about good desgin, and bad desgin, and fun vs unfun.

[jovial nest]

friend of mine has this 10cm long (3") SATA cable that he rescued from somewhere... "I might need this!"... sure... suuure he might 😄

[novel ingot]

Then we'd be able to talk about the real issues in development rather than someone being upset because they don't like turning down difficulty settings

[obtuse quartz]

Then life would be beautiful.

[worldly saffron]

Nope, It's pronounced CH-KOHORT 😎

[random sleet]

warriors are much easier as a parry class, literally dont even have to move =.=

[upbeat lagoon]

I like that Frigate and Brig looks like from Port Royale game

[abstract aspen]

this will be important later!

and i know for sure, the moment you throw it away is the moment you need it!

[oak solar]

you're asking too much here

[leaden drum]

Hot take: I think the combat is fun. Simple and basic perhaps, but fun. The numbers not so much. So I turned down the numbers and now I can stop complaining and have fun with the game. Easy fix.

[queen spruce]

If there is any challenge, some people will complain its too hard. Happens every game.

[novel ingot]

I'm glad we got on the same page about something.

[upbeat lagoon]

Someone who remember this?

[neat mist]

Which is why difficulty sliders are in the settings

[merry jacinth]

"When I drive my car and yank the wheel, I keep swerving off the road and crashing! Can the manufacturer fix that? No I will not stop yanking the wheel. No I will not get a new car with safety features. No I will not stop driving. No I will not learn to drive first. No I will not try and drive on easier roads."

[dry pecan]

I haven't gained the skill on that part yet. LOL they make me too nervous so i end up running if i can't shoot them to break their permablock.

[astral smelt]

What if, what if, what if...
What if people posted in their suggestions website instead of just complaining pointlessly without any goal or aim. At least if you're posting a suggestion you're assisting the devs.

[random sleet]

it seems like halbards cant parry though, sucks

[queen spruce]

I know that, you know that, but they can't be the problem, its the games fault!

[old depot]

Okay, time to grind some copper so I can upgrade my 24s and other Blackbeard Ketch equipment

[unkempt tendon]

anyone else think the HUD is too overbearing?

[olive ermine]

u are talking to someone that was driving for 30 years (and just so u understand i am using driving as a metaphor for gaming like you). Your argument is simply invalid

[scarlet hearth]

Hai Pirates, boss?

Yep. You’re getting keelhauled fo dis one chief

[jovial nest]

Who still remembers the "Overboard" video game? that was so much fun... 😄

[carmine nimbus]

Silchad doesn't care about actually improving the game. They just get off with Rosey on being a troll.

[merry jacinth]

As someone who has been making valid arguments for 31 years, your argument is simply invalid

[leaden drum]

Overbearing? I think it's rather out of the way.

[tepid apex]

https://tenor.com/view/medieval-sword-gun-parry-this-parry-gif-1204733511031848007

[scarlet hearth]

Wrong approach

[astral smelt]

Ok you are definitely just ragebaiting, I thought you were genuinely struggling but this feels like just ragebait now. 😂

Time to keel-haul you!

[jovial nest]

oh, the upper officers are fighting amongst each other, our change for revolt? 😄

[olive ermine]

this gave me a good chuckle

[novel ingot]

Saying someone's argument is invalid doesn't make it invalid.

It has to be invalidated for it to be invalid. Keep up the good work sailor.

[shut sapphire]

Anyone getting an Application hang bug - It won't let me load into my world, just stays on loading screen then closes with the bug.

[carmine nimbus]

Could use a UI scale option to reduce it just a little bit.

[upbeat lagoon]

https://youtu.be/sOFKmfbvcyI?is=rbtpp30-MAR9eRXl 4:17 the same Brig like in Windrose

[scarlet hearth]

Wait can you even read red?

[queen spruce]

I play with a guy who is bad at every game he plays, and blames said game for all his problems. All I can say is I think jebus he didn't want to play Darktide with me. He is bad enough on HD2 and this game.

[dry pecan]

i can't

[tepid apex]

You must be new here, you cant talk about ||Ground Combat || without Silchas hearing the echos from across the void, Hes our Number 1 Combat hater, BUT not our Number 1 Rapier hater, that title goes too someone else

[leaden drum]

I do play in 1080p. Screenshot your window? I wanna see if I can agree with you based on screen size

[surreal sierra]

Ahhh Darktide. Great game but boring once you reach the min-max stage of gear

[novel ingot]

Please ignore half of what I say, it's for the brain rotted.

[scarlet hearth]

I see, My last 2 messages were blocked then

[astral smelt]

Me trying to understand the angle of attack my character hit the stratosphere after first meeting a Charging Boar.

[leaden drum]

Hmm. Looks fine to me. Can't argue taste though!

[olive ermine]

helldivers 2 can be hard at moments. Especially the bugs. But its crazy fun

[old depot]

Outage, what outage?

[upbeat lagoon]

More cannons

[scarlet hearth]

They where very pirate tho

[spiral quiver]

could be worse , in the alpha they threw you across the island lol

[astral smelt]

This needs to be a thing. Let me fast travel via Boar, not Bell.

[brazen hearth]

anyone have an issues where you are building , and then all of a sudden it wont let you build but you can in a different spot? (hope that makes sense)

[scarlet hearth]

Anyway, Looking fot team to kill last boss

[abstract aspen]

which half, the first or the second half or just somewhere in the middle?

[spiral quiver]

it was horrible

[tepid apex]

Ships did not have "default" amounts of guns - A brig could have 0 guns, 2 guns, 12 guns, Just because a brig in another video game has XX amount of guns does not mean every brig has XX amount of guns

[carmine nimbus]

I normally play games with hotbar buttons a third to a quarter of the size of Windrose's buttons.

[scarlet hearth]

I hear here is the place

[upbeat lagoon]

Windrose is fun but is too far from good pirate game 🙂 is still EA

[neat mist]

I have stopped feeding the troll, now I just see '1 blocked message' every now and then. I now have 1 person in my blocked list.

[queen spruce]

and completely unforgiving for players with poor situational awareness 🙂

[dry peak]

just get all stuff to lvl 15 and its easy

[novel ingot]

I have AuADHD so there's no consistency

[astral smelt]

Is there anything blocking your placement?
Is your placement not connected to the ground?
Are you outside the bonfire range?
Is your camera being blocked by something?

Not saying it's a you problem, just assisting with problem solving.
