[dry trellis]

More and more early access games coming, Subnautica 2 release date finally, future updates for Windrose - as an EA fan. It is a good time.

[lament finch]

is there a benefit to boarding another ship if you can still just loot them?

[split charm]

You get more loot if you win the boarding.

[digital kestrel]

.you get piastre coins if you board them

[acoustic fractal]

You get more silver currency when boarding the ones with a chest on top

[dusk sentinel]

3000 years

[acoustic fractal]

If there no grave is is grave robbing?

[pulsar sedge]

does windrose use a seed for each map (like minecraft)? Because the world looks different from what it was in the demo.

[hot plover]

3 Frigates, 6 brigs 11 + 1 Ketch x3

[acoustic fractal]

Yes

[digital kestrel]

yes

[pulsar sedge]

thats sick.

[obsidian garnet]

Who has a dedicated server I can play on

[split charm]

Ye gods, now I want a fishing rod.

[hearty cargo]

I’ve kinda finished the game and out of curiosity are we getting a bigger ship after the frigate in the next update?

[maiden sequoia]

Fun with friends on my dedicated server!

[dusk sentinel]

hit up #1493010069682520138 and #1493029476970270740 to join servers to play on

[lean viper]

#1493029476970270740 has a LIST

[acoustic fractal]

Most likely every biome has had a ship so far….

[obsidian garnet]

Bet

[floral hedge]

do you get another ship after the frigate???

[hot plover]

Unfortunately not yet

[acoustic fractal]

Not yet

[agile fable]

[acoustic fractal]

Me personally think it’s a high chance

[agile fable]

Hi, new here, love the game!

[ornate oriole]

Windrose def needs ability to swap walls during building, without having to undo previous walls

[floral hedge]

i second that haha

[ornate oriole]

Also this came out pretty well if I do say so myself

[agile fable]

Hmm, good idea, like scroll to switch

[rancid sierra]

We desperately need paint to cover up our poor stucco work too. And signs we can write on for our warehouses.

[rigid rapids]

I think they gotta add a buyer for the blackbeard insignias to sell em for coins

[ornate oriole]

Probably after rep is maxed, it's coverted into money instead

[rigid rapids]

exactly

[rancid sierra]

It is also a strange choice that the reputation is tied to the WORLD save and not the character. So if you go to a new world or someone else's server, they might not have any rep over there...

[rigid rapids]

You can use use the shade from the roofs and the lighting pieces to add more atmosphere imo

[indigo gorge]

quick question...my server is up to date but i cant join "wrong client or server version"

[ornate oriole]

Them 69 ammo counter, nice

[indigo stone]

i got 500 silver for 100 linen fabric for anyone trading. price negotiable

[rigid rapids]

Nicest of shots

[indigo stone]

just tryna get my frigate tonight

[rancid sierra]

Yes. But paint.

[rigid rapids]

ah yes greece

[faint bison]

does everyones starter island have the same POI's? i cant loot anything on my friends starter island

[inland agate]

hello

[ornate oriole]

Yes, starter island is always with same POI, and if your character looted them, they won't be lootable for you on any other server

[faint bison]

is this the same for other islands throughout the map?

[ornate oriole]

I think it is. Islands change their position depending on seed of the map, but they should be of same POIs

[formal stump]

Guys anyone know how to fix damm infinite loop on loading , no answer from them or cant find info to fix it

[rancid sierra]

Not really?
I mean, other than the repair option on Steam, and turning off cloud saves, there isn't much I can do for troubleshooting.

[formal stump]

but what hek they have done since the patch this is just no fun at all ....

[lean viper]

Do you have any mods that would change the player level or Storage mods ??

Some updates can break the saves and cause the game to go into a infinite load on start / Crash out when loading the worlds.

This an fix the player save -- https://www.nexusmods.com/windrose/mods/158?tab=description

No fixes for world ones that dont involve alot of work

[formal stump]

thx i will try that but i just play the game as intended i dont use any program or mods , just normal game

Thx a lot i wil try , hugs ahooy

[abstract aspen]

https://playwindrose.com/faq/

have you tried looking for fixes here?

[errant frost]

are there any mods that speed up the timer for resource node spawns?

[abstract aspen]

#│modding-general is most likely your best bet for those questions :) people there should know more

[lament finch]

[rigid rapids]

He doesn't know that dodos are equivalent to elden ring bosses for game reviewers

[severe bobcat]

Okay, so the game is loving to give me combat repair kits, yet doesn't place them in my or my ship's inventory

[light rain]

Heyyyyy so is anyone elses game freezing up at Tortuga?:

[lament finch]

so, ive heard the developers are pretty good on listening to any feedback with this game.... where can we do that to give some suggestions or ask for some things to be added or changed? i WANT a perma walk toggle xD.

[rigid rapids]

check pins

[lament finch]

i havent had that issue yet thankfully. but then again, i JUST arrived here for the first time. this place and its ambiance is SO freakin cool ❤️ . i cant beleive this is just an indie game in early access

[atomic jasper]

I cant even open the gamer - infinite loading screen, shall I re-install?

[rigid rapids]

if you do back-up your saves just in case

[lament finch]

it says i dont have access to that server or link...

[rigid rapids]

I don't have that issue

[light rain]

I had frame drops before the maintaince update and now I have to restart my PC for it to work and it's better then my hubbys and his friends new PC (Its newer I don't know anything about it expect it is better then theirs)

[rigid rapids]

any1 need those? I don't use them and it's taking so much storage.... (giving them for free*)

[lament finch]

well... it is at the end of the day, still an early access game running on unreal engine 5... the fact that it runs as well as it does for all of us with as little issues as it has is honestly quite a miracle.

[vernal basin]

sell them to the bretheren

[rigid rapids]

oh they take them? thats good i just havent unlocked them yet

[severe bobcat]

If i was playing online, I would happily accept

[lament finch]

who do i speak to for getting that fixed? id love to be part of the feedback for this game ❤️

[rigid rapids]

idk maybe check out the tech or game support channels

[still urchin]

Boys what I do with this

[light rain]

Everywhere else is fine but Tortgua is the problem child

[versed mist]

That's an evil red explody barrel right?

[still urchin]

Yeah I think so but I can't drop it LOL

[versed mist]

Bait an enemy into shooting it and run towards them

[meager tide]

I hope they send another patch update bc my wife and I keep getting stuck in the loading screens since the newest update

[still urchin]

There are no enemies...

[lament finch]

given what i see here compared to every other place, i could see why it might tax a system somewhat i usually rock +130 fps in most areas and here it drops down to 90ish so theres that.

[still urchin]

Welp I just dropped it and blew up an entire ecosystem

[rigid rapids]

Ok game you got me

[vapid badge]

my game doesnt start, it get stuck in loading... why?

[quick wraith]

This game is dope thank you!

[vapid badge]

restarting game also gets stuck

[light rain]

Thats happening over here!@vapid badge

[vapid badge]

your game also is hanging and crash?

[light rain]

WTF BRo these are indie devs not AAA do not pirate you scum

[sullen dome]

They should put Wellerman (Sea Shanty) as a song in the ship

[dry trellis]

For £25 it is HELL YEAH worth it.

[light rain]

It doesnt crash just freezes and I cant use that montior

[desert blade]

6/7 ragebait

[dry trellis]

If you don't own the game, go buy it now.

[light rain]

I am pretty sure they do

[lament finch]

they did. its on the list of songs they'll sing 🙂

its my favorite ❤️

[light rain]

THANK you angel

[sullen dome]

I never listen it. I pass to hear all and didn't hear it

[desert blade]

https://tenor.com/view/on-frog-frog-on-god-on-dog-gif-13492924572480532659

[light rain]

I listen to it 60% of the time

[sullen dome]

I even recognize a music beatles had a version, maggie mae

[lament finch]

itll eventually get to that song if you give it time.

[grizzled knot]

which armour is best to fight in foothill?

[vapid badge]

so its a resolution issue?, mine been working only today it doesnt want to start the game/server

[light rain]

After it freezes and I computer reset and I am okay but if I leave and go back I have to reset I have done it 3 times tesitng it out

[sullen dome]

I got the list of all songs and there isn't this one. One resembles "drunken sailor" but just resemble

[vapid badge]

mine is same even with windows restart

[light rain]

So dunno

[light rain]

Possibily...............................

[lament finch]

is there no merchant you can sell to at tortuga?? i came loaded with my valuables at home expecting to trade in some coin but none of the people who sell stuff will have the option to sell or trade anything in...

[light rain]

@vapid badgeFriend is checking it out........

[keen linden]

Hey guys,
what do you think of the idea to be able to place more "teleport bells" depending on the comfort level your base has?
For example: +1 teleport every 5 comfort

[vapid badge]

ty

[dense cairn]

once you discover their home bases the merchants appear in tortuga.

[light rain]

Theres another loctation

[rancid sierra]

Nope. All the buying vendors are on four seperate islands from tortuga. Including the People of Tortuga. They had to flee because of a few undead.

[dense cairn]

can only sell to the individual factions home locations tho

[vapid badge]

its called people of tortuga/ only tortuga cant sell

[lament finch]

ohhhh ok so thats how it works... ok! cool ty for the tip! i sure hope we eventually can liberate tortuga!

[light rain]

AYO my windows screenshot thingy dont work

[rancid sierra]

What I still find strange is that Long Ben, owner of the only bar left in Tortuga... won't sell you alcohol. You have to get it from a rep vendor that isn't in the bar. >.>

[vapid badge]

it started now, i am hosting where it crash, i starte solo it worked so i went back to hosting now it also works, thx for the help bro!

[keen linden]

win + shift + s. or try win+g

[blazing atlas]

hey guys

[light rain]

No sh it doesnt work for the game rn and freezes it, lucky if I just click somewhere else and back onto the game its fine at least

[keen linden]

try resetting the snipping tool in your installed apps. You might be lucky with that ^^

[light rain]

BROOO it works fine until Windrose is runnng

[carmine kayak]

Because why not, right?
Yarrr harder lads!

[dire osprey]

Guys when next update?

[carmine kayak]

Not soonish© ^^

[dire osprey]

[median glade]

guys can you access the rest of tortuga at the moment?

[desert blade]

https://tenor.com/view/energy-vampire-colin-robinson-energy-vampire-colin-gif-27564009

[limber cairn]

what am I missing?
respawn. eat food. get killed by boar.

Skill issues

[main sleet]

CTRL to dodge

[split charm]

"When new content" is the new "when EA" 🤣

[rigid rapids]

You missed the "make a video about how bad the game is"

[carmine kayak]

I did survive though. Thanks to this mostly:
(and superior yarrring duh)
(normal diff, fully upgraded Blackbeard Brig - thank the big gunz too)

[limber cairn]

the combat system might have some skill issues, a boar is harder to kill than pirates. unless im missing something. i upgraded the armor and stuff

[wise pagoda]

anyone here have issue with ping? 200 ping ++ exclued host user

[carmine kayak]

Didn't have any issue playing with distant friends - 200ms+ ping (locally hosted by my friends)

[rancid sierra]

You can get about two hits on a boar or dodo right at the start, then have to hold right click to block, or control to dodge. If your stamina reaches zero, you're pretty boned. If your shields hit zero from blocking too much, you're boned. So you don't wanna go 'all in' on attack in this game. And there are a few times where you want to just stand still a second, not attacking, or blocking, or dodging, to refill the stamina meter so you don't get stunlocked.

[lament finch]

sorry i take it back about earlier with the wellerman being in the list... i think its drunken sailor im confusing with.... if so, i too REALLY hope they bring wellerman in

[gloomy hornet]

will restarting your nitrado server delete items on the ground?

[carmine kayak]

Crude dmg and stagger help a lot with boars imho. I used the maces a lot.

[wise pagoda]

we are from indonesia. i think some users have a same issue with this but there is no proper answer to solve this 🙁

[severe bobcat]

Meanwhile, I can barely take on a 3v1 at level 4...

[rancid sierra]

Now the first few times a charging boar lights up red, you're gonna meet Jesus. Or get ragdolled across the whole island. Happens to everyone. You get really good at slamming the dodge button, or you get really used to flopping around.

[gloomy hornet]

anyone know?

[carmine kayak]

It might depend a lot on the network route. So many things can go wrong on the way to the host…
I feel you. Playing from the Indian Ocean here. Smooth so far fortunately.

[limber cairn]

dodge helps, but only in 1v1s in which I have to agro an entire pack of enemies to sprint 200m away to just get one alone

[carmine kayak]

Upgrading helps a lot!

[light rain]

This what I figure out early on but I am lazy

[severe bobcat]

I have the first 3 upgrades for the ship, but trying to get behind them is annoying. Doesn't help that I burn through repairs very quickly

[uneven pier]

lvl up the upgrades

[rigid rapids]

Or just use a reliable musket and a platform when you just wanna farm and not engage in combat XD

[severe bobcat]

At least you know how i can start crafting homemade gunpowder? Tired of running out of it all the time (and don't get me started on copper being finite)

[light rain]

I dont normally have gunpowder...........

[uneven pier]

copper respawns, farm gunpodwer from outlaw camps, both respawn ever 6 hrs.

[rigid rapids]

ur just starting out?

[amber terrace]

hello

[swift creek]

I'm pretty sure boars are harder to kill than pirates

[rancid sierra]

Gotta get to the Foothills, and obtain CORN to unlock the mill to grind your own powder.
But the foothills also has so many pirates that you'll murder them and get 10-50 gunpowder per PoI.
So by the time you can make your own powder, it's also the time you're swimming in it...

[light rain]

Almost done the foothills,

[rigid rapids]

then you have no real excuse farming sulfur there is a breeze

[light rain]

Am I doing sumthing wrong

[limber cairn]

i have wasted so much food on dying lol

[severe bobcat]

Really, game? Maybe it's the slow burnout talking, but it feels very flawed after the tutorial

[light rain]

Thats one of three things I am missing

[amber terrace]

sombody whana play?

[uneven pier]

nope, your baiting just fine

[desert blade]

https://tenor.com/view/tails-eats-cereal-with-a-fork-sonic-memes-tails-miles-prower-among-us-gif-24968805

[rancid sierra]

There is no sulfur mine. No PoI that says Sulfur Here.
You just have to go to the two story rock outcroppings, and hope one side is yellow.

[light rain]

Wot? I no rage bait just female playing games after having a kiddo soooooooo relearning again

[random badger]

i think im lagging alot more since update

[rigid rapids]

Do you have the mill unlocked yet?

[modest tusk]

Hi all, I just bought the game and i have a question, does the trees regrow?

[light rain]

I have passed so many wondering what the white text was but when I go back it didnt show up again

[light rain]

Yup, I need the boss one of the 2 things in the first row and sulfar

[limber cairn]

just beat 3 pirates. but I cant fight 1 boar so I will just avoid them until i can shoot them dead

[spiral swallow]

palms and ficus trees don't regrow

[toxic stone]

so do you still have to go back and farm iron from foothills after youve hit swamp? dont see a merchant for ore orders

[light rain]

Same

[rancid sierra]

There are also smaller ones in the Costal Jungle, that also require iron pickaxes. These too can spawn in the foothills... but they're pretty hard to spot because they look almost identacle to boring rock.

[rigid rapids]

good seach for rock forms like this one and farm the sulfur with an iron pick

[broken arrow]

i just noticed that the wolf trophy was made more ... on model, PLEASE tell me we can have the initial wolf trophy at some piont that one look hella cool!

it jsut looks so damn derpy now

[modest tusk]

and the shores will be refilled with moss and rocks?

[drifting loom]

swamp boss is stupid the fact once he goes into "rage mode" he will instant kill u with any hit is just infuriating

[haughty ibex]

rapier of devastation vs rapier of a thousand cuts??

[rigid rapids]

personal preference

[stark cargo]

Is there a way to write down your suggestions for the creator regarding further development of the game? There's some content missing from the endgame

[lament finch]

yea... ok game, you got me...

[random badger]

yeah i never lagged before and now i am, and its happening during fights where some times potions go 0n cd without effect or i dont dodge fast enough

[haughty ibex]

which is better tho for the swamps

[rigid rapids]

If ur fighting undead thousand cuts is bad cuz they resist bleed dmg so devastation then

[spiral swallow]

That I don't know. Not checked that out since I got a ketch to farm all the wood from the flotsams in the ocean and before that a farm save for it.

[opaque geode]

What a mess with the broken save file—nothing I tried worked. I had to delete the entire save folder just to get back to the main menu. Almost 13 hours of gameplay gone... This shouldn't happen, not even with EA. That was the last EA game I'll ever buy—I'm furious.

Hmm i kept getting game crash today
Is there a way to find a log to this and to report it?

[weary knoll]

i'm missing 1 item in coastal jungle discoveries. the first one on the second row. is it bugged or am i just missing something?

[finite sage]

That's where the majority of people drown.

crab shell maybe

[split charm]

Doesn't the game keep save files on the cloud?

[eager hazel]

Would love to see more hull and sail Colours put them in chests in the map for us to hunt roll them to unique colours for limited time on each pack of colours it will keep us in the game drop hidden look maps to aquire at the venders

[weary knoll]

yeah i don't have it. i collected lots of crabs in the beach. i even shot them to see if it drops on kill. how can i get it?

[lilac kayak]

its really low rng i got it mid play threw

[weary knoll]

srsly? but you did get it from the tiny crabs that scutter around the beaches, right?

[main sleet]

have to eat one

[lilac kayak]

it dosnt matter i think pick up shot swing sword n yes tiny crabs

[weary knoll]

aight, thx matey

[finite sage]

No, have to catch one

[split charm]

Its just very low chance for a shell drop.

[lilac kayak]

i got it from pick up

[main sleet]

ah ok wanders off for a coffe

[lilac kayak]

wtf

[split charm]

No.

[lilac kayak]

wow crazy take on the pirate experience

[dry trellis]

Yeah. I love the idea of customisations for the ships. Rarely am I that kind of person but the last ship I have is so big I want to customise eveyrthing.. even the great cabin (captains cabin). So much potential with this game and I do hope they sit working on this for years to come.

I get what you're saying buddy but this isn't exact a full blown adult style game. Not seeing blood... guts.. gore... nudity etc. They will draw a line to the type of mature content and I think you crossed it. By far.

[split charm]

there he goes.

[quaint mountain]

Ahoy mateys. Is there somewhere we can post ideas that the devs will see? If not on Discord, a dev blog or something?

[spiral swallow]

excactly true with you. Thats why I refused to reply to that guy. It was gross

[wind spindle]

is this normal for a side quest?

[lament finch]

just wondering... since this is how i got my first ship... is it possible to get this ship restored?

[split charm]

Sadly no.

[main sleet]

yet? who knows what they do : P

[eager hazel]

just got my Big Ship last night grinding was good but worth it but i think in order to keep that edge they need to give us monthly or 3 monthly challanges where we get rewards for our goals first single player goal weather its hide heads ect and then community rewards like flags of our countries unique paint hulls having goals of 1.000.000 tones of Iron or wood ect to get a map for loot

[plucky sandal]

Any fixes for aligning the door?

[placid quiver]

Hidey ho. I'm on the Jacuese side quest and I beat the Grim Reaper ship up and board it successfully after countless failed attempts, but I can't find the dude I'm spose to find. Anyone else have that issue?

[split charm]

Here:
https://windrose.support/

[quaint mountain]

Awesome, thank you!

[main sleet]

well cant realy do that cause there is ways to have unlimited resources..

[main sleet]

yes i had to do this one 3 times or something.. he should be at the lower deck by the mast

[final crane]

these dang wolves are kicking my butt

[finite sage]

Be aggressive, dodge and parry

[main sleet]

nothing like a surprise alpha wolf to the back of the neck eh : P

[leaden geyser]

Hit the Q key when you have the build tool open, click on unsnap. Reload the build tool and align the door where you'd like it.

[final crane]

the main issue is when they get close, their close in attack doesn't telegraph for crap

[placid quiver]

I got the boat boarded and looked below.Do I just needa get him down again?

[viscid bone]

You need to talk to him

[eager hazel]

@final crane build fences around you box square... you will be we bit safer depending on your difficulty setting

[final crane]

ultra nightmare omega extreme experience difficulty

[eager hazel]

@final crane thats nuts lol glad they don't have a permey death lol mode lol

[finite sage]

Kill them before they attack ggez

[mossy stream]

do we know if we are gonna get liek roof cornerss e.t.c in the future?

[final crane]

most enemies you get 3 swings before they counter, wolves it varies between 2-4

[split charm]

I don't want my roof leeking...

[final crane]

goat leader also has a weird variance

[dry trellis]

Considering how well the game has sold in under a month, you'll probably get tons more of building type pieces and difference custom options etc. Like all things - it takes time.

[abstract aspen]

unknown but my guess is yes. We're still missing a lot of pieces and we just had some patched in. I'm sure there will be way more to come :)

[main sleet]

well that can be self imposed lmao

[eager hazel]

lol

[main sleet]

hey tiddles, anywhere i could post that im going live playing this game?

[final crane]

cybornetic attachments for my pirates to ride dinosaurs against the zombie hoard?

[finite sage]

Windrose is like pirate Rust

[split charm]

sweet idea, choom!

[azure cloak]

I hope they take this POI restriction off your characters.... i want to be able to go plunder as many new islands as i want creating new worlds to plumder the gold amd silver from those new islands too. This kinda sucks where i have to make a new toon just to go farm gold and silver.

[final crane]

haven't played rust since alpha, was a bunch of troll players then and from what I've seen they are still troll players, some of us have jobs and need to get 2 hours of sleep in

[deep rampart]

There is always a POI to farm ingots, one in each biome

[finite sage]

pffft, casuals

[golden ore]

you can always get gold and silver ingots from camps

[mossy stream]

yeah ofc, just wanted to check if we knew anything about it, have only played the game for a few days so verry new in the comunity <3

[azure cloak]

Yes but if you have collected everyone you can't start a new map to recollect it all again

[final crane]

I added that to suggestions, or at least make completed poi's unquest related rotate around, looks like it wasn't added to the list to vote on 🙁

[deep rampart]

they spawn in camps

[mossy stream]

okay thamk youu!

[leaden geyser]

Silver ingots respawn at shipwrecks, gold ingots respawn in the 2nd biome fort.

[azure cloak]

Chests don't respawn

[golden ore]

but the spawns of gold ingots do

[deep rampart]

No, but the little storage items do

[azure cloak]

Good too know thank you so much!

[abstract aspen]

chests don't but the bales do every six hours :) theres a pin in this channel where you see the respawn timers for everything

[deep rampart]

Silver has a location in coastal, gold in foothills, the other in swamps

[karmic forum]

the prebuild structures bp are found in chests or we have to buy it somewhere

[golden ore]

same with cane sugar and gunpowder and booze crates etc

[lilac kayak]

ashlands will bring ingots crafting ?

[azure cloak]

Thank you all ^.^

[main heron]

/respawn

[deep rampart]

probably not. Most likely a new ingot type

[main sleet]

hey @abstract aspen , anywhere i could post that im going live playing this game?

[golden ore]

i can't wait to build a galleon - surely that's the next ship right, after frigate? no irl pirate ever owned a galleon so it'd be cool to see in this alt reality

guess it's either that or a man of war but that seems unlikely since that was the ship that ended piracy

[finite sage]

How about the respawn timer for my pet? 🥹

[lilac kayak]

idk because you can only upgrade one or two weapons the the whole game ? surly we will be able to craft so can assend every weapon if you please

[deep rampart]

you can upgrade all the weapons, just farm the ingots

[compact quail]

psa. copper mines suck up unwanted items. drop inside copper mine, leave, it's gone

[finite sage]

I have like 40 ascension ingots in vanilla

[final crane]

lucky, I got 2 XD haven't been able to ascend anything

[glad hamlet]

guy just a thought, will it ever be possibleto decorate our ships in the same way as our bases?

[deep rampart]

There is a POI in third biome that you can farm them every six hours

[compact quail]

i personally hope never

[glad hamlet]

like i would like to be able to put a bed and stuff on it

[final crane]

I'm in second trying to farm pirate ships for silver to upgrade my weapons

[compact quail]

i want it to stay a vehicle to get from a to b and fight on it not a mobile base myself. would undermine the actual base imo
but its probably gonna become a portable base in the future cause everyone wants it to be one like in soulmark
ships in soulmask are ugly visually

[glad hamlet]

fair

[abstract aspen]

most likely not due to the issue that its a "moving entity". More customization options are something i can see happening though. and maybe we will get a ship that already has a bed in it and a crafting station. But it's a very very low chance we get to place stuff on it

[glad hamlet]

i just get annoyed having to make a bed everytime im on anisland and it gets dark

[compact quail]

wouldn't mind it getting a working bell IF the bell counts for the limit of 10

[final crane]

imho it should have some ship stuff in it though, like a basic workbench, storage that can be looted, a hammock for the captain and the pool boy to spawn from, etc, not a mobile base

[glad hamlet]

like id rather not be fast travelling everywhere

[rancid sierra]

But it's so immersive to have pink lasers...

[potent oar]

Every time I delete a character, my save file gets corrupted and I get stuck on an infinite loading screen. I have to delete all the characters in the game's file folder and create a new one.

[compact quail]

well u don't really need it to have one. you can very quickly get to your base is what i think

[glad hamlet]

i suppose

[final crane]

I literally have a minibase on every island which is counter intuitive to how ships functioned, if I want advanced crafting, plating, processing etc I should still have a base, but some basic requirements would be in line for how a ship functions

[abstract aspen]

id love to have one bell i can place inland, or a main fire that lets me travel there, so i can make a base that isn't at the shore :( even if it's just one, i wouldn't mind. just lemme have a main base where I dont have to run across the island haha

[compact quail]

like i absolutely get the "i want it for the sake of qol and saving some seconds", and if it becomes a thing it becomes a thing 🤷🏻‍♂️

[glad hamlet]

this 100%

[rancid sierra]

I just want to throw the blackbeard figurehead off of my ship so I can actually aim my front cannons without two thirds of my screen being wings and skeleboy.

[abstract aspen]

exactly. If the devs think its a good idea and want it, just do it. It's their vision first and so far they have been doing exceedingly well

[finite sage]

Weird, stock variant has no such issues

[abstract aspen]

hope they figure out a way to make it disappear when aiming, like the ropes on the sides

[final crane]

you know just had a weird thought, imagine the transition from wooden ships to fiberglass/resin/plastic/metal ships for like regular merchants, that had to be a mind blowing experience for them to suddenly be told wood, which was used for thousands of years, is out

[compact quail]

the thing is. its one thing to have a vision and have an aesthetical and gameplay direction, and its another thing to put stuff in due to popular demand
like the recent poll with the chest size.
i couldn't care less and don't think it needs to be a thing. 28 slots is fine as is, place more chests. but its gonna be a thing and why not.
i may be a bit naive, but i always assume that if thing x is in a game, it's made that way for a reason by devs
obviously don't mind qol as long as it doesn't go overboard like that 9999 stack mod

[deep rampart]

It wasn't a "sudden" advancement

[main sleet]

well the step between was copper plating

[rancid sierra]

"But copper sinks."

[final crane]

it would be for them, people who've been "always doing it this way" think any change is sudden, I have jerks at my job not a decade ago who got up on a soap box and started ranting that he's done his entire job with a pen and paper and he didn't need a computer

[deep rampart]

Not like a merchant woke up and said "oh shit! plastic?!"

[compact quail]

what i would absolutely welcome if the progression would make more sense boss-wise
"why can i not smelt iron before i beat a fat guy?"
"why can't i cook croc tail before i beat the skinny guy?"
in valheim it makes sense

[rancid sierra]

Why do I have to obtain CORN before I know how to make a mill to grind gunpowder?

[final crane]

valheim has a smoother progression

[compact quail]

valheim is non-qol cbt, and it has its appeal

[final crane]

right now with windrose it feels like each biome unlock is literally starting all over in terms of damage output and damage taken

[compact quail]

i don't mind that tbh just from gameplay. sure it makes no sense why a goat tanks the same sword that kills a boar, but u cant have an rpg be realistic in that regard without going full fantasy

[pliant pawn]

I guess because the mill is primarily associated with grinding corn with its' ability to create gunpowder being secondary to that. Maybe.

[compact quail]

yeah but a millstone has more impact on building a grindstone than a corncob

[final crane]

we've been grinding things for thousands of years that were corn though

[wispy spruce]

i do like how our pirate just sees a corncob and is like, "you know what would be really cool? if i had this corn but in really tiny pieces"

[finite sage]

You're corn

[shut cairn]

Hey everyone, I’m new here. Considering if I should by the game?

[compact quail]

make the player find a grindstone in his first farm chest
make the grindstone unlock the mill
make it craftable then

[final crane]

corn was an america thing, what gets me is we can't make lye

[finite sage]

Have you ever played an early access game before?

[shut cairn]

Yeah of course

[pliant pawn]

Buy it. Share in our regrets.

[finite sage]

Then you know what to expect. Next big update in 6 months, but the game is good IMO

[final crane]

I got no regrets, I stabbed a zombie with a sword

[compact quail]

no idea what the ea point is. game is very good for ea and could have been sold as a full release already. all the systems work good, the main difference is less biomes and minor side systems than 1.0
but thematically it is ea. expect more content over time. but quality wise the game is good

[raw yew]

it's a great game. great value for the price and it's just the start

[final crane]

bite your tounge, if sold as full release you know very well everyone would be screaming abandonware and too early etc

[formal marlin]

yeah game is... surprisingly functional from my week 1 ea experience on. runs a bit poorly on my machine but that's presumably because I have a 1050 TI

[compact quail]

a 60-100 hrs long game for 30$ abandonware?
what is a cod then with a 5 hrs campaign and online mode that is dead in a year because new cod comes out

[final crane]

to a lot of gamers, yes. Gamers be super toxic and the main reason I don't program video games

[mortal stag]

there are much worse full releases from AAA than the state that this game is in

[south cove]

hey here ❤️ i've got a problem with a quest "Coastal Brotherhood", I need to bring 50 planks, 50 iron bars, and 50 pieces of wood, but what kind of wood is it?

[compact quail]

glad we agree gamers are terrible

[formal marlin]

Hardwood, are you playing on a Non-English translation? it definitely says Hardwood for mine

[compact quail]

the hardwood beam thing
you play non english

[south cove]

yes i'm french lol

[final crane]

I love battlefield, but bf6 I finally stopped playing and even refunded, it was nothing but screaming toxic crap in chat and voice

[formal marlin]

Yeah it's just the raw Hardwood from the Divi-divi trees in the Foothills

[south cove]

thank you 🙂

also! there is a channel specifically for questions like that #🤝│player-help

[compact quail]

do urself a favor and just buy it from a trader npc

[short solar]

Hi how are yall

[deep rampart]

There should be a channel for people to post in called # Imacrybabyentitledgamer

[haughty ibex]

Divi divi trees do respawn but it takes atleast a week irl

[formal marlin]

wait fr?

[deep rampart]

6h

[haughty ibex]

this is only for ores and vegies

[formal marlin]

my palms definitely haven't. all those poor, nude islands...

[deep rampart]

Nope at least 40% of a grove spawns

[formal marlin]

I left the trees that weren't full size alone and came back to a grove to find some fully grown ones, wasn't sure if they matured over time or new ones just popped in. do you know?

[compact quail]

oh i know a few people in here that should be banished there

[haughty ibex]

its because the divi divi trees start as saplings thjen small trees then full blown big treest i think every 6 hours so from what ive observed those whole grove of trees comeback atleast a week of being cut

[compact quail]

u wont be able to revegetate them without mods. but with mods its easy

[copper anchor]

I had a problem with the Spanish translation, it was not "wood" what Hornigold wanted, it was this

[deep rampart]

Someone did extensive testing. Stumps don’t regrow so take them out, the full grown trees spawn even if you cut the saplings. But it seems to be about 40% of the grove respawns

[haughty ibex]

mods are cool but only the QoL ones when it changes the game it changes the gameplay aspect

[haughty ibex]

i seem to notice that too that not all of it will respawn maybe after sometime it will fully regrow??

[compact quail]

the only trees respawning are divi divi (everywhere they grow)
and plaguewood (in some spots, you gotta find out where)
palms, ficuses, bushes and tarwood does not respawn
every other ressource does respawn

[deep rampart]

Maybe. Dunno. There is plenty of divi for me as a single player

[formal marlin]

can you get seeds for non-food plants other than palm, ficus, and coastal jungle bushes?

[haughty ibex]

you can always buy divi divi trees if youre short or explore other foothills

[south cove]

oh thank you ❤️

[spiral swallow]

That was @hot plover it's pinned in #🤝│player-help

[haughty ibex]

do market vendors only accept 1 order or you can have multiple vendors and different orders?

[deep rampart]

I thought it was tona

[haughty ibex]

like 2 vendors sellings the natural resources and can u order 2 different resourcess havent tested it

[near sapphire]

will we be able to capture ships eventually?

[spiral swallow]

I did check and it's pinned in #🤝│player-help so easy to send ppl there and check the pins for it

[copper anchor]

Yes, you can do this

[haughty ibex]

capture no board yes

[dapper plover]

is it true if we cut down the tree trunk, it will not re appear?

[deep rampart]

Awesome. I forgot that channel exists 😊

[near sapphire]

I mean in future not in the game as it is

[spiral swallow]

check the pins in #🤝│player-help

[severe bobcat]

Holy moly, I hate how many games just put you in the early game death cycle

[haughty ibex]

no it will respawn regardless but either takes time or only a portion of it will respawn

[deep rampart]

Trees do not reappear. Divi trees do, but take the stump

[formal marlin]

you mean, like, permanently keep ships as your own? Wouldn't make much sense imo, you'd just get flooded with a dozen identical hulls in your ship list. I guess you could break them down for the materials?

[hot plover]

Yeah may as well take the stump for extra hardwood. Cause it doesn't affect respawn

[formal marlin]

woops, replied to the wrong message, meant to respond to @near sapphire

[deep rampart]

And you would know 😊

[lament finch]

so what are peoples thoughts on the rapier vs the greatsword? which ones better or are they both good in their own ways?

[haughty ibex]

i think the 40% theory might be right cus i left a grove of divi divi trees for atleast 4 days and only a small number of trees respawned

[hot plover]

Me trying to find a respawning plaguewood or tarwood spot 😭

I wanna prove myself wrong

(And I wanna see the ratio of trees that respawn)

[deep rampart]

Every weapon has potential. Find the one you like

[severe bobcat]

Uh oh, you got 2v1'd after fending off a 3v1
Uh oh, you literally blinked and got 2 shot by a saber despite having both food items, one for vitality

Uh oh, the game sends 2 level 5 gunships when I am barely a level 2 ship

Uh oh, you actually manage to board the ship you spent an hour trying to finish off and still die because 2 enemies killed you while you were jumping away from a slashing attack

[formal marlin]

I mean I guess the 2nd boss greatsword is cool if you want to cosplay as Viego from League of Legends

[haughty ibex]

greatsowrd is good for crown control but only downside is it takes so much stamina rapier is good for 1v1 and its efficient on stamina but it really depends on your playstyle

[trim moat]

HOW DO I FIX THIS!!! I"VE TRIED EVERYTHING!!! I tried to verfiy, I cleared download cache, Ive started in Admin, I restarted computer, I've changed region. I've TRIED EVERYTHING! I'm starting to get pissed off. I had no issues until this update and I've been trying to fix it since it came out

[deep rampart]

It gets better. Also kill a few before boarding with a gun

[severe bobcat]

With. What. Gunpowder?

[haughty ibex]

have u tired deleting and reinstalling?

[compact quail]

dev said tar no plague yes

[deep rampart]

Farm sailor camps. Like the ones you rescued your crew from

[severe bobcat]

I've played Valheim enough to know about that death cycle. It gets very old very fast, and it makes for an equally fast exit

[mystic jackal]

Do other poi’s. Maybe not ready for that yet?

[trim moat]

That should not have to be the fix bro.

[compact quail]

did u try to reinstall?

[trim moat]

No I dont want to because I've had people tell me not to do that because they lost save

[formal marlin]

With my 1050 TI the game turns into a slideshow every time I board a frigate with my own, dying in boarding combat can really be frustrating when you can't just rely on your NPCs to win for you. That said, I still manage with the thousand cuts bleed build.

[hot plover]

Yeah the 40% was a rough estimate on my part. Based on one virgin grove I destroyed. And other reports from other users.

[severe bobcat]

I am trying to finish off a quest that I am technically almost 2 levels above recommended and I am still struggling with that because they somehow have endless supplies of enemies shooting out of the cabins @deep rampart

[faint knot]

is there a problem with the game it was working last night when i did the second boss fight but steam wont load the game today

[compact quail]

its an issue with smth in the folder or so being read only. and steam cannot write the files over
https://www.reddit.com/r/steamsupport/comments/1gagqlw/why_missing_file_privileged/

[hot plover]

I just realized how bad that sentence sounds. I'm going back to bed

[formal marlin]

if you haven't noticed, fresh enemies spawn from the hammocks on the lower decks. You can watch them pop in and "wake up" if you're down there.

[haughty ibex]

save local files? in case but the best solution would be reinstall

[pallid kestrel]

Anyone has reliable musket who can share the blueprint with me?

[spiral swallow]

sleep well and get rested

[haughty ibex]

well after defeating the foothill boss which is easier than thomas u can always buy hardwood

[uneven pier]

they did something other than reinstalling to lose saves

[severe bobcat]

I know where they are. But why are there already 12 of them before I can even jump overboard for safety?

[haughty ibex]

quagmire powder is a pain

[compact quail]

go to a big ruin that has a billion thralls

[haughty ibex]

exactly my point u have to kill a lot of thralls to get a powder

[severe bobcat]

I just hate how despite supposedly being well or even over prepared for the fight, I still heavily struggle

Because you can't focus on things like parries and counterhits when there are 3 of them and kne of you

[haughty ibex]

parries are not the most effective strategy to do rn. dodge solos the entire fighting mechanic

[formal marlin]

if it's that many your crew's probably already dead? I do agree it's frustrating. if I have a maxed out crew they shouldn't lose on their own every time, even if I'm boarding a level 15 enemy frigate. At the very least I should only have to kill like, 5 of the 20 guys myself

[subtle sentinel]

i have no access to the channel where one can post recomendations for features how do i get it?

[severe bobcat]

They were trying to fight and I saw a few of them

[formal marlin]

the most guys I've ever gotten mobbed by at once when boarding, while my crew is still alive, is 3. it's usually 1-2

[severe bobcat]

But why is the ship i need to take down level 3? Why do 2 level 5 gunships ambushing me? Why is the recommended level 3 when even 5 is a struggle? Where the heck is the homemade gunpowder early game

[copper anchor]

https://windrose.support/

[formal marlin]

when the rest die, that's when I get dogpiled. I have had to sink treasure ships just because, with my graphics card, I can't reliably dodge/parry and survive even with Too Angry To Die

[mint jetty]

I must say i was first sceptical bout the game but i honestly enjoy it more then minecraft 😅

[formal marlin]

Game's alright. That you're basically expected to be a cooperating fleet of independent captains instead of, like, a crew on a single ship is a little disappointing, but I liked it well enough

pretty much just the AC Black Flag experience with the serial numbers filed off for ship combat

[deep rampart]

Upgrade your boarding party, guns and hull as high as you can. Makes a huge difference.

It’s not your level that’s important, it’s your gear. Makes a huge difference in everything

[compact quail]

get your ship to level 5.

[sharp rock]

any updates on steam files ? cant even load the game up2 home screen atm

[deep rampart]

Once I figured out gear level being most important the game got much more enjoyable

[formal marlin]

yeah character level is mostly not important

you get more stat points from food and item buffs. Talents are kind of important though. if any of you are running around without Too Angry To Die on I salute you but it feels mandatory to me given how brutal combat is

[frank rapids]

find a small camp of lvl 2 pirates on a beach, build a fast travel point nearby, learn to kill them without needing to shoot them, farm them regularly

[uneven pier]

Join the crowd in #🚧│tech-support with the same problem

[deep rampart]

Oh yeah I need to redo my talents since I finally found a reliable blunderbuss

[formal marlin]

fun fact, if you build a box of short walls most enemy types just do not know how to handle it. stand inside a 3x3 (preferably a little larger) or so box and just smack enemies when they run up if you're having trouble. If it's full sized walls they'll sometimes break them, but the short ones just seem to really baffle their AI. works in dungeons too, especially if you can just string a single wall across a hallway choke point.
good luck if they have musketeers or other primary-ranged enemies though

[keen dove]

Thankfully redoing talents and progression points is free

[compact quail]

if you need to build traps for the enemies, i got bad news for ya

[formal marlin]

Is the news "you're too smart for this game you're not allowed to play it any more" ?

[deep rampart]

Play how you want. Just can’t build in boss areas so don’t rely on it

Welp time to go to work

[frank rapids]

I still carry prefab shelter materials for hiding from alpha wolves

[compact quail]

yes, it requires rick and morty levels of IQ to figure that out
sorry i was wrong

[mossy stream]

is there a way to get a laarger building spacer/spot around the camp fire, or is it somthing that will be added?

[compact quail]

move ur bonfire. the limitation will be chest access

[spiral swallow]

you only need the bonfire for chests, workstations and decorations. You can build anywhere

[compact quail]

and before you ask, moving bonfire does not pop all of these things out of existence

[karmic forum]

did they change the map in new update and if i play on old map will the new features and tresures be available?

[formal marlin]

I just worry about some future update depopulating stuff I left outside of bonfire range, but not for any real reason

[compact quail]

nothing was done to the map

[mossy stream]

yeah but it dosnt want to like slot togheter or such, like we are tryign to extend our peir but it dosnt wwant to go further out

[trim moat]

yup reinstall still didnt work wtf bro.. The first game i've ever had this issue with seriously.. I've been loving it and this just pissed me off

[uneven pier]

give steam admin access, it cant write to disk by the looks of that

[trim moat]

Ive done steam admin

[compact quail]

https://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/1/1458455461474727488/
its a steam thing

[spiral swallow]

have the resources on your body. Then you can extend or move the bonfire and make a box for resources inside that new bonfire radius for pulling it out off the box.

[formal marlin]

sounds like they're saying it won't snap on?

[trim moat]

I've done all of those things bro.

[lofty notch]

I think talent that improve stamina is best

[formal marlin]

it's very good early, less so later when you can get Endurance points easily

[compact quail]

well if you've done everything, you're out of luck. mail steam support

[trim moat]

Imma just go to bed and try again tomorrow i'm already over it tonight.

[faint knot]

i cant either i tried other games they load fine its just windrose that wont load up

[compact quail]

did you actually check if the game folder is read only?

Hey guys, we have tried almost everything, but when I am trying to connect to a server ( dedicated server ) with old or new characters the game crashes. Anyone experiences something similar? or we should report it in tech/bug issues?

They are already the highest i could do atm. Already spend a crap ton of copper ingots

Really i think that swordfish has 0.000001 rate… been 25mins still no luck😭

[formal marlin]

Thousand cuts goes brrrt. Sorry, can't help much more than that, beat him first try

[lofty notch]

1000 is slow at 3rd biome😭

[formal marlin]

yeah the bleed tickrate is real low against most enemies there

[compact quail]

parry melee, dodge ranged, attack him till dead

[candid roost]

does destroying fast travel points return materials like copper and stuff? or will i directly get the bell?

[formal marlin]

Thousand Cuts is still good in swamp if you ascend it though, the bleed heal can infinitely sustain you

[tiny dust]

Is this an update flaw after yesterdays update the mine caves are doing this I have not change any game setting becuase I am lazy and just play how the game is set by default. It should be too dark to see and I should need to use the lanters

[lost geyser]

ill try but he swings like 2-3 times after eachother hard to predict

[crisp vine]

25 min is nothing. I got 4-5 in a couple of hours. The Mackeral however took me two full days of nothing and then on the third day I finally got one.

[lofty notch]

I temember i saw something about increase perfect parry rate somewhere….

[formal marlin]

that's just how it looks to me on low settings all the time

[rare cipher]

The way I started beating him fairly easy is running some dmg over time weapons paired with parrying returning strikes inbetween his attacks, and alot of dodging.

Just stay on the move and slowly take his health down and you should be good!

[tiny dust]

Before yesterday I would need a lanter to see in the caves or dark places like the ruins which is touch I like in the game. I also like the piles of bones in some of the caves where wolves reside which is also a nice touch

[rugged ivy]

are you sure global illumination isnt set to low?, makes caves bright when that setting is on low

[formal marlin]

yeah, my friend who doesn't have to play on low settings showed me their screen and I saw how dark it looks like that. But on low settings, that's always what the caves and ruin dungeons look like to me.

[tiny dust]

yeah some how my settings was changed

[weak robin]

CPT Krull here, hey priates, where do you make or post your review or comments about the game? In steam where i bought the game?

[iron sonnet]

Morning captains. I'm looking to sail the sea in my own private server with my friends in tow. Has anyone loaded a dedicated server on anything other than windows? Thinking Linux vm but wondered if any other captions have found treasure this way.

[compact quail]

i guess? the internet is your oyster

[iron sonnet]

I have seen a few reddit threads mentioned to me as well. Really anywhere that can gain attention

[weak robin]

arrg, thanks mates!

[tiny dust]

I would like the dev to implement rough sea's settings when sailing into storms the ship has a chance of sailing off course and I would like them to add beached ship setting where if you sail into shallow waters your ship has a chance of becoming beached and you would need to perform a step to get your ship unstuck

[formal marlin]

I hope they never do either of those

[stable sky]

Used ascended double barrel pistol and thousand cut. Go in swing once or twice then dodge away. Let him come up and dodge right before attack. Rinse repeat til he is dead. Used lots of options and ammo

[iron sonnet]

Thought i saw a channel listed in rules to mention ideas to the devs.... I just looked and didn't see so maybe wrong

[tiny dust]

I hope they do not mess with the combat systems. Their amazing I never use auto target in any game and they way they have the combat systems in this game because it heavily favors my fighting style

[iron sonnet]

The weather would be a neat addition imo... not to much a fan of beaching my ship though but I also found early with the small ketch you can launch yourself if you jump off at the right moment when you can leap from ship to sand. Keep hopping until stamina out gives you a good boost

[fervent rivet]

I like the new Seedbeds but, I still would like to be able to have the collision box for the plants to be reduced so I can really keep them seed uniform in the seedbed.

[raven frost]

Haven't made it this far.... cant wait to have a tism over building

[compact quail]

there is no real trick to any boss. learn the attacks

[slow skiff]

Same, idgaf if theyre gonna clip at full growth

[sacred tundra]

Which do you prefer? Do you use food such as sea food platter and coffee to max vitality and endurance then put points into which ever attribute, such as agility. Or do you use food for agility, precision etc and use points for vitality and endurance instead of food?

[formal marlin]

the hand to hand combat seems pretty basic to me but I agree it does work out pretty well. stepping away from hits pretty much 100% negates the need for parry with most enemies though, so there's room for improvement. Also, most perks on items and talents being very boring stuff like "3% more damage" is a little disappointing, I'd have liked that stuff to be more interesting. Ship combat could use some tune-ups but I think the core conceit of "it's AC4: Black Flag with the serial numbers filed off" works pretty well

[faint bison]

asking the real questions

[fervent rivet]

It def. ticks an OCD box for me.. to have them rotate each time you place one down is slightly annoying as that rotation can also block it from being placed.

[formal marlin]

Didn't they say they also did that with this patch, though? I do agree that it could be even a little smaller on some plants

[fringe ferry]

I prefer whatever food I have the mats for and respec accordingly

[formal marlin]

deranged behavior, may God have mercy on your soul

[fervent rivet]

Uhhhh... no?

[tiny dust]

Do you know if the Divi-Divi trees respawn on dedicated server's? I know most of the if not all items found that isn't part of a quest do respawn on the map over time. It is just I cut all the Divi-Divi trees down in the Highlands and I cant remember where they spawn at on those islands and I do back to those Islands forgetting to check to see if the respawn

[iron sonnet]

Lol just playing the game and eating food. No min max stress

[split charm]

Gents, I'm lvl 15, completed all quests and side quests - and I still have those keys left. Am I missing something?

[iron sonnet]

Thought i saw a YouTube yesterday saying trees dont grow back. I'm not far enough into the game to be certain myself but I do run a dedicated server so would be nice to know

[short kettle]

u miss 7 numbers in lottery

[sacred tundra]

I'm always afraid of my vitality food running out at an awkward moment so if I have them maxed out with points it's not such an issue. But I guess that's bad management on my part.

[compact quail]

parrying costs nothing. dodging does
with certain things parrying gives you buffs. dodging doesnt

[eager flint]

no

Game is fun but some of the elements in the game is a.....boar

Do the Devs have any plans to rework ahip combat and make it less slow and more fast paced? As it stands now Naval combat is probably the least fun thing about the game, it just feels too slow paced. There also is no risk to it which im not a huge fan of.

[tiny dust]

The Bigger questions is do they not grow back if you destroy the stump or leave the stump ???

[compact quail]

revisit the areas and open locked chests

[split charm]

Will do.

[crisp vine]

You'll keep getting those if you go back and kill the mobs again. But the chests only hold loot the first time.

[formal marlin]

you can literally just step back without sprinting if you time it right on most attacks

[split charm]

I did go back to farm a bit, I guess keys are rare drop

[crisp vine]

The mobs that drop them have a key symbol over them 😉

[compact quail]

ok. if you win the game this way. you do you.

[formal marlin]

yes.
Saplings can now be planted with higher density (reduced spacing requirements)

[vestal phoenix]

now windrose is dying whats the next big early access hype train i can jump on please?

[finite sage]

Anywhere, good riddance

Saplings.. not the seeds.

[tiny dust]

what the heck this guy not even 2 weeks and he says something out in left field

[formal marlin]

...it says "planted" what do you think that means?

[green wigeon]

i fuxling HATE bees

[mossy stream]

Okay, thank you!

[finite sage]

Then stop eating them

[sacred tundra]

Probably some YouTuber said the game is dying so therefore it is (eye roll)

[formal marlin]

fellas this gentleman is obviously shitposting, why are you taking the bait

[deep rampart]

On a Friday morning even

[fervent rivet]

You plant saplings as you do seeds. But, as I said.. the seeds from what I am experiencing is not changed.

[tiny dust]

the gaming community is buying up the copies and those later commers to the stage are showing up

[finite sage]

Because it's Friday, I'm at work and I need entertainment

[deep rampart]

Because I’m at work and bored

[formal marlin]

EVERYTHING you can plant is a "sapling," I agree that' it's really annoying that they call things that aren't saplings saplings, but that's what they are in game

[tiny dust]

copies sold has no merit to how many people are playing the game all the graph shows is copies sold

[hot plover]

[compact quail]

the graph shows people ingame tho

[deep rampart]

Potato saplings are fresh

[fervent rivet]

Awesome.. cool story.. doesn't change anything though regardless.

[frank rapids]

sounds like me if I'd had a lobotomy

[formal marlin]

I am going to put you in the device. it LITERALLY changed the exact thing you were talking about.

[deep rampart]

…what device?

[fervent rivet]

Unfortunately it doesn't since I am unable to do exactly of what I'm wanting to do.

[formal marlin]

whatever his least favorite device is

[hot plover]

Yeah their spacing is alot tighter now. Source: I had to buy 200 more flax seeds for the same plot.

[deep rampart]

Toenail shaver I bet

[finite sage]

Mine's the Catherine wheel

[tiny dust]

in order to keep players engage in this game they just need to release more biomes and more boss biomes

[brisk spindle]

OMG! I had this great idea about Windrose if they ever decide to create PVP!

Imagine 2 factions: Illegal - Pirates

• Legal, Government or whatever

Pirates will never fight each other, they will only be able to fight the Gov on the sea whenever they transport something or whatever they do!
Pirates will also be able to raid the LEGAL side bases and vice verse!
The purpose is to stay United, choose one faction and take control ☠️

[hot plover]

Given his PFP it's probably cheese grater related

[deep rampart]

I’m plenty engaged with what we have so far

[formal marlin]

like I said, it would be nice if they reduced it even more but the spacing did get reduced this patch

[hot plover]

[pearl plank]

Lots of good changes

[deep rampart]

I like that my lime trees have grass under them now

[fervent rivet]

Sounds good.

[tiny dust]

same I am just now getting into the swamps biome and I have most of the side quests complete too

[quasi dust]

any chance we can add a ph flag? 🫣

[finite sage]

Stop it, your sparkling personality is blinding me

[royal beacon]

wheres the second chest here? i cant find it anywhere

[austere yoke]

PVP will probably be arena type only deal if it ever gets added to this game. We have Sea of Theives for more of the fleshed out PVP

[hot plover]

Yeah looks like it was about a 50% reduction for non tree seeds. I haven't planted lime or banana since the update so unsure how much for those.

[brisk spindle]

A true pirate does not give up! Find it!

No risk? Do you have a frigate you've had sunk yet?

[formal marlin]

everyone's gangster until the warship takes half your hull in a single volley

[runic crown]

I havent gotten that far. Where im at now Losing my ship is nothing lol. 20 wood and its back. Be cool if the ships suck youve gotta actually rebuild it.

Mainly wish Naval combat was as fast paced as the actual combat.

[hot plover]

Fr. I'm 15 for everything and even I've almost lost my frigate and owww

[brisk spindle]

Yeah? What ship do you run and what upgrades have you done?

[molten glen]

[split charm]

Crusher?

[hot plover]

Ah yeah the rebuild cost is ALOT more painful on higher tier ships.

[sacred tundra]

As someone who has never found the coveted rapier and likes the saber I've been using the sturdy saber for the extra defense. Then the other day I found the dualling saber but as I'm not very consistent with parrying didn't find the retribution perk on very often. Then last night I found the razer. As someone not particularly good at the parrying do you think that is better? I've now found enough of the special metal to ascend something and don't want to waste it.

[crude trout]

I already have a Resource Merchant contract in my inventory, but why isn't it showing up as a create option in the create menu? Is it a bug or something?

[brisk spindle]

Skills! Practice more! Last night I have been surrounded by 5xlvl15 and 5xlevel 13, they had no chance

[high drift]

AHHHHHHH

[formal marlin]

blackbeard frigate, keelhold + stretch the supply so I can heal through heavy damage. 36 and 24 pounder epic devastating guns, everything level 15. I can't die if I'm trying but if I blunder the opps will buss

what is the weapon i should level up , i am still in early game

[finite sage]

You within the bonfire range?

You'll appreciate the practice later on.

[austere yoke]

Run!

[runic crown]

Thats cool. Is there an Option for stuff to be deleted on death?

Man I Just hope mod sor something can make the Naval Combat faster.

[pearl plank]

Dude, sailing is hotness. And I wouldn't exactly call fighting a 5 ship gangb*ng "slow paced"

[crude trout]

Yes i am

[runic crown]

Its just not very fun as it is now imo.

[austere yoke]

That's a dingy

[finite sage]

Indestructible

[brisk spindle]

Exactly, never go between them, eliminate them from outside! Use the barrel with fast reload and enough kits and you good

[crude trout]

What do you mean? , it's under on the building menu right?

[hot plover]

None that I'm aware of. You can always change the settings to make naval combat and only naval combat harder in your world.

[woeful stone]

??? That's my pirate vessel. Don't go insulting me I'll punder your treasure

[brisk spindle]

That's not a ship! That's a Terminator 🤣

[sacred tundra]

My dingy wont stay in my port. It keeps returning to the starter island 🙁

Yes building menu, Crafting, bottom tab. Scroll down and it should be there.

[austere yoke]

Unfortunately me matey PVP ain't a thing here

[formal marlin]

if you think it's slow just upgrade your guns and run the blackbeard model ships with the big guns that can oneshot Interceptors and below

[woeful stone]

that's why it doesn't have cannons. But I got deep pockets and your chests look juicy

[carmine dust]

any1 need anything

[crude trout]

i cant see, i can see only animal

[lone olive]

just get a frig its all you need

[finite sage]

I need a hamburg

[runic crown]

I dunno. It's more so Naval combat is like super slow paced. As in it takes forever for naval fights and its just not too fun. I do love everything about the game just the Naval combat kinda bores me.

[hot plover]

Then inverse of what I said, make the ships weaker lol.

[runic crown]

O.o this is a thing? The 24 Pounder cannons you mean?

[lone olive]

24 and 36s all you need

[austere yoke]

Wonder how many of you named your ship the jackdaw

[brisk spindle]

Well, sorry, but there were no engines for them in that period! You had to trust your skills and make wind your friend

[finite sage]

With Blackbeard frigates, even 36

[woeful stone]

Deffinitely needs to be a lot more to naval combat, and the sea in general

[runic crown]

Holy hell yea

[austere yoke]

Legendary ships should be added to fight against

[finite sage]

I don't like Titanic that much, sorry

[lone olive]

i want like a sea raid or something large scale

[runic crown]

I agree. I dont think the combat is bad, just needs to be fine tuned more.

[deep rampart]

My brig is “In Fury Born”

[woeful stone]

I don't think that will help. It'll offer a cool boss fight, but wont do anything to improve the actual combat

[formal marlin]

Captain's Daughter, Sea's Own Sister, and Mother Malice, in order. Ship names are one of the most fun things to come up with and if you're just cribbing from somewhere else you ought to do better than that, I think.

[lone olive]

i wish we could take over zones to hold and "rule over" and people can come try to challenge these said zones on there ships

[woeful stone]

I took historical ship names 'cause I love them!

[deep rampart]

What is the jackdaw anyway? Oh google says Assasins creed. Man it’s been years since I played that

[cinder wren]

my ship is named long boi and the other is called storage lol

[split charm]

Heh, I just got me a fishing rod. But why am I holding it like a bloody musket 🤣

[formal marlin]

also a completely valid naming scheme imo

[austere yoke]

I may just do the ship names I did in Sea of Theives. Named after the trio of top gear. Sloop Hammond, Brig May, and Galleon Clarkson

[deep rampart]

Shoot dem fish

[finite sage]

It comes from Jack Dawson, the male lead character from Titanic

[desert stump]

is really rapier of thousand cuts good ??

[cinder wren]

jackdaw was the ship from ac black flag

[young wolf]

How original. Daring today huh

[formal marlin]

it's incredible, but don't think you have to use it, there's lots of good weapons

[finite sage]

And it was named after Jack Dawson

[desert stump]

can you let me know one , also i do have dueling sword , idk which is the weapon is should go with

[austere yoke]

On the latest episode of Pirate Gear. The trio plunders treasure

[formal marlin]

It doesn't really work for a pirate game, but in Warframe I named my Railjack Thunder Child after the heroic ship from War of the Worlds

[sacred tundra]

As someone who has never found the coveted rapier and likes the saber I've been using the sturdy saber for the extra defense. Then the other day I found the dualling saber but as I'm not very consistent with parrying didn't find the retribution perk on very often. Then last night I found the razer. As someone not particularly good at the parrying do you think that is better? I've now found enough of the special metal to ascend something and don't want to waste it.

[finite sage]

Whichever you prefer, tbh. They all have their strong suits

[desert stump]

idk , no idea

[woeful stone]

I named mine after historical ships from the time period, which means most of them are named after slave ships 😭

[finite sage]

Flip a coin then

[desert stump]

so i will go with rapier , as it is a fast weapon , i i have rare of it , and will upgrade it

[untold oriole]

It's honestly probably a lot faster than it should be, realistically.

I saw some black flag or skull and bones footage that made it look like they were all on speed with all kinds of weird fantastical visual effects cluttering up the sceeen, and I'm so glad windrose DOESN'T do that.

[deep rampart]

If the gunpowder made as much smoke as it should I’d name a ship “Smokeshow”

[young wolf]

Whese s my slave that take care of my cane flax field ?

[runic crown]

The crit chance can be stacked easily and can be very powerful. Even for me im only in the first area after I hit a perfect parry I have like 12 seconds to spamming crits.

[runic crown]

Yea thats what I meana I prefer the AC4 style of Naval combat.

[untold oriole]

Not only are 24 pounders a thing, but so are 36 pounders, and there's a ship that lets you have 12 of each

[austere yoke]

Blame Adawel for that

[deep rampart]

I have a thousand cuts rapier. It’s still blue and level 3 because not my style

[runic crown]

[austere yoke]

Got the shanties need to just make the combat more like black flag but with having to bail water and board up ships with holes like in sea of theives

[untold oriole]

Eww, no. Black flag looks ridiculous

[iron sonnet]

Hmm would be an interesting study.
Ore is 6 hours and other recourses like enemies are 2 hours according to the vid

[runic crown]

I dig it yea

[finite sage]

Check the pins

[woeful stone]

Black flag naval combat is better from a design perspective

[untold oriole]

Never borrow ideas from ubislop

[austere yoke]

Not all their ideas are trash

[finite sage]

No wait, is it in #🤝│player-help?

[untold oriole]

They ruined rainbow six by making it more like counterstrike... Their ideas are trash

[fossil oriole]

Well I had to name the Brig Jackdaw

[olive ermine]

Black Flag Resynced will be big again

[finite sage]

Just the ones past 20 years

[austere yoke]

Maby 10 years

[formal marlin]

One thing worth noting about weapons is how you pair them for their stat bonuses. str scaling weapons don't (currently) have a ranged option but they do poisebreak vs enemies on hit, and one can instant knockdown enemies for more cc. Rapiers only poisebreak on parry, but they pair well with a pistol which you can use without swapping

[runic crown]

A Good Portion of the stuff they put out before like Syndicate and unity was actually good. They made alot of very good thing, AC4 , the Ezio Games etc.

[untold oriole]

That's because people don't learn from their mistakes. I learned in the 00s when they made raven shield

[warm ore]

Hi all ... OMG what a game

[untold oriole]

Longer than that even.

[cyan veldt]

Jeez I didn't know shroud played Windrose

[safe osprey]

yeah crazy did not have that bug single or server so must be quite specific on some systems.

[deep rampart]

Yes

[formal marlin]

I 100%'d Black Flag the first time, why would I play it again? the story was worse than AC3 even though the gameplay was fun

[runic crown]

pretty

[olive ermine]

Its completely different beast now

[austere yoke]

Ubisoft is doing it to get more people to play skull and bones.

[woeful stone]

Windrose naval combat is pretty dull, which is probably the worse thing it can be. Deffinitely needs work, but the groundwork is there to act as a basis to build upon

[untold oriole]

I've never played ANY assassin's creed, and I don't wanna play that one either

[deep rampart]

Was out all night farming ships and the sun came up

[runic crown]

This is like asking why do I have like 1000 hours in FNV but why do I still play it. Cus it fun.

[formal marlin]

I have 100%'d every mainline AC game up to Odyssey. Gotta go back and clean up Valhalla at some point. Don't think my PC can run Mirage or Shadow

[untold oriole]

Yeah, back then they didn't tell us to get comfortable not owning our games

[woeful stone]

Not crying, not sure why you're so mad, but it's ok

[austere yoke]

What's FNV? My memory is having a fallout and I can't remember. I need to get some new memories. Maby a visit to Las Vegas will help.

[olive ermine]

The issue is not games only. We are owning less and less things too

[formal marlin]

FNV is a much better game and has massive mod support, apples to oranges.

[untold oriole]

They can get comfortable not owning my cash

[compact quail]

based

[deep rampart]

I’m not mad, just a little insane

[haughty ibex]

the cabinets sold on tortuga can it be used to store things??

[runic crown]

Do DS3 then I have hundreds of houes in it. Beta it many times.

[austere yoke]

Fallout 3 and FNV definitely need the remaster/remake treatment. Not so much for PC, but for consoles.

[untold oriole]

Right, and I'm not gonna embrace any company's attempt to make that the norm

[finite sage]

You can hide inside the closet 10/10 would buy again

[woeful stone]

Similar boat. Loved it the first time, graphics don't matter enough to me to bother with resynced personally. Might be good for newer gens that didn't play it the first time, though

[deep rampart]

Ship view is so good

[formal marlin]

like I cried at the very end of Black Flag when Parting Glass was being sung but that's just because I'm a big crybaby and will do it on a dime, but tbh the story of that game was not that interesting.

[compact quail]

what work does it need?
what does it need to not be: ships fire cannons at each others

[haughty ibex]

lmao so aesthethics only

[untold oriole]

They need to stop doing remake after remake and make new good stuff again

[runic crown]

Yes the sunrise and sunset is so pretty

[finite sage]

Well, yes, but also fancy comfort levels

[austere yoke]

Sure but they need to make exemption for those two. Cause it runs very bad two gens ago on consoles

[deep rampart]

Also “/“ turns off hud, in case you didn’t know

[olive ermine]

Bethesda cant make good games lol

[formal marlin]

Not the worst AC game story of course. That honor goes to Syndicate (which I will actually defend because I love the goofy zipline gameplay and the moving train base) with honorable mention to Unity

[haughty ibex]

naval coembat is already good but i would add more variety to cannon balls tho... chainshots dont even do anything atp

[untold oriole]

Which is why we should stop purchasing the slop they produce

[finite sage]

I miss Bullfrog studios 🥹

[runic crown]

I disagree, I think it was very compelling. Seeing Edward change from a self Centered to not self centered guy.

[rancid sierra]

It was called Oblivion. :p
Sadly, they continued to use the exact same engine for the next thirty+ years, renaming it a few times but keeping it the same in the back...

[lavish trail]

ugh now i have two bugs..

[untold oriole]

It amazes me how badly people got burned by starfailed after the disaster that 76 was.

[austere yoke]

I miss bluepoint

[formal marlin]

eh like that was there but it was the direct followup prequel to AC3 which had a much more interesting protagonist with, imo a hell of a lot more pathos in his character and relationships

[haughty ibex]

renovating is such a pain with all the storage moving

[olive ermine]

Obvlivion was reletitive brain numbing grind. Elder Scrolls died with Morrowind

[austere yoke]

ESO is good

[runic crown]

AC3 was the most boring thing ever 🤣

[untold oriole]

Nah, oblivion is when most of the fans took notice... Until skyrim anyway

[finite sage]

Best thing about the newer ES games is Young Scrolls

[woeful stone]

A lot more to it. It's very simple at the moment, aim and left click and that's the whole combat. To list some examples (Don'#t have to be these exact things:
-Bracing/covering when being fired at to reduce damage taken
-Sails damage
-Different cannon options
-longer range artillery
-Explosives
-Weather events that can twist up a battle

Anything to diversify it a lot more than it is currently.

[rancid sierra]

I was okay with Skyrim, but it really was built from the ground up under the idea that "modders will fix it".

[olive ermine]

Most popular doesnt really mean the best. Skyrim is the most casual version of the series

[untold oriole]

I know, it is to elder scrolls what fallout 4 was to fallout

[olive ermine]

Absolutely agree. FO4 is insult to FO fans and i hate it deeply

[runic crown]

This isn’t entirely accurate, because most game studios including Bethesda Game Studios avoid full engine rewrites due to the massive cost, risk, and time involved, instead upgrading systems incrementally while keeping a stable foundation. Completely rebuilding an engine can take years, break existing tools, and reintroduce old bugs, so developers typically replace major components piece by piece, such as rendering, animation, and physics systems. In Bethesda’s case, what became the Creation Engine for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and later evolved into Creation Engine 2 for Starfield includes significant rewrites in lighting, world streaming, animation pipelines, and other core tech, even though it still builds on earlier architecture. So while the engine shares a lineage with older technology, it has been heavily modified over time, making it more accurate to think of it as a continuously evolving system rather than unchanged code from decades ago.

[finite sage]

I wish Troika released their Fallout, but at least we have Steamworks

[woeful stone]

I see Bethesda games more like game engines for actual developers (modders) to create in these days. The base games don't tend to be worth much

[olive ermine]

Vampire the Masquerade slaps tho

[austere yoke]

When it comes to Bethesda games. It's usually best played on PC for full mod support

[untold oriole]

But it didn't die with morrowind. Morrowind isn't even really good. It has a lot of good ideas, but the tech wasn't there to execute it properly. Oblivion cleaned it up, and then Skyrim sanitized it

[finite sage]

That it does, that it does 😌

[woeful stone]

I bought the horse armour

[compact quail]

• literally a hull item doing it
• sail damage is literally in the game
• you have different cannon options
• eh. i don't mind it be 1-100m, personal preference. i can't hit ships at long range
• explosives... i mean. it's pretty hard to fire explosives from normal cannons, and idk what purpose it would serve outside of visuals or "more dmg number", but why not
• i'd like it, but i think devs already stated that they don't want the wind to obstruct it, i doubt weather would. i wouldn't mind having effects based on weather, but it would just be annoyances imo

[finite sage]

Ugh. Just remembered Bloodlines 2 exists. Ewwh.

[subtle blade]

Bethesda can make immaculately mediocre games though.

[formal marlin]

let me build a ship around one giant cannon like the a-10 warthog

[untold oriole]

And immaculately buggy ones

[compact quail]

ok, any and all opinions instantly disregarded.
no i am serious.

[austere yoke]

#💬│windrose-chat message

[runic crown]

Alot of people just hump on the hate train for the Engine for literally no reason, without knowing how these things work. There is hardly ever a reason to fully remake an engine and even when they do guess what? They use their old engine a sa base. This is the case for like every game ever lol.

Its fine to trash the games for their story or gameplay or whatever else. But the Engine stuff is kinda annoying cus thats just not how things work and spreads alot of misinformation which is just bad.

Not inherently bad.

[untold oriole]

Now why would you bring up politics?

[hot plover]

I think that came out just before the movie. Tho wouldn't surprise me if it was on the ost

[austere yoke]

Problem with UE5 is most developers don't optimize it for their games. Resorting to brute force to run well.

[formal marlin]

sorry but the only Wild Wild West reference I will accept is Neil Cicierega's "Wow Wow"

[olive ermine]

True but for instance Enshrouded lets you build in smaller areas but crafting blocks let's you make millions with relatively short grind loops

[woeful stone]

A hull item doesn't do anything.
When I say to diversify the combat, I want more player interaction. Passive effects may aswell not be a thing as they are things you know you have, but don't have to think about.

Sail damage isn't in the game, a temporary debuff is, though no one uses chain shot because in current implementation, there is no scenario where you aren't just better off hitting with your main cannons instead.

Long range artiller would just be to provide the option to try and play faster ships and keep distance, or to try and bombard enemy forces on their way, it's just an extra option.

Explosives could be anything, like throwing gunpowder barrels over the back to explode on people behind you. Just another option.

By weather effects, I don't mean having to focus on staying with the wind constantly, as that'd be annoying. But huge waves, whirlpools, tornados, stuff that could wreck a ship if caught in it unprepared, that the player can use to their advantage in the right scenario.

It's less about "Speed combat up" or "slow combat down" or "give more numbers" but more about "provide more options and actions"

[queen lion]

UE5 is great.

Just wish the bigger studios who used UE5 wouldn't use the default movement engine.

Having something like UE5 (especially with it being free and very resourceful for small time devs) is as helpful as it is harmful.

[crisp vine]

I actually for a moment thought about not posting it. Then I hoped people would just take it as it is: a joke, and carry on.

[hot plover]

Click on your bonfire and resummon him back to base

[austere yoke]

I still miss the FOX engine. So well optimized

[little prairie]

The problem with UE5 is that it gives people like me, the impression that I can make a game.

[finite sage]

RIP Konami

[subtle blade]

How is that a problem...?

[olive ermine]

Clair Obscur was made by visual programming only. You absolutely can make a game in UE5

[woeful stone]

You absolutely can! It would probably suck, but everyone's first game does.

[little prairie]

Because it'll amount to $200 in unreal store purchases and a buggy mess

[mellow reef]

lol doubtful he hit my state one time and all I thought was kennedy please lol

[queen lion]

I prefer UE over Unity most the time anyways.

[hot plover]

So uhh fun cursed thing about this.

My world lags even when I'm on another island far away from all these spawned ships

[untold oriole]

Talk about pirate game, there's enough political bs everywhere else

[subtle blade]

I disagree. My first game was really fun, lol. 🤭

[austere yoke]

Pirate politics is ok though. I don't care too much about Nassau president

[untold oriole]

Because most people can't

[woeful stone]

My first game was legally distinct Tetris about 20 years ago 😄

[compact quail]

the hull item gives you a damage reduction tho
the sails are visually and functionally damaged, the crew repairs them over time. you can even see it iirc
i get the long distance stuff. its nothing for me. my setup is for melee combat
i am not a fan of "anything" behind ships tbh. i like it to be a blind spot for both sides i can actually use
if i could drop stuff behind, so will enemy, and me not like that
i did understand what you mean with weather effects. it could be neat but also could be annoying. but smth like lightning striking randomly or hell, a maelstrom to have a timed battle where you need to aim rather than position would be nice. i like this cause it would make people rethink when to do certain encounters, and i am all in for more preparation and strategizing.

[compact quail]

u have a smasher?

[hot plover]

I do yeah why?

[fierce ridge]

zsn

[compact quail]

give me a well lit profile shot of its head
i need it for... things

[queen lion]

I can't spawn my whole fleet in 😩 my toaster would blow up

[woeful stone]

You gotta get you and 7 friends to spawn every single ship they have in all at once!

[hot plover]

In running on a laptop and it somehow survived.

[queen lion]

Chromebook using GeForce Now, idk whose system I'm streaming the game from but it's begging me to stop

[subtle blade]

My first game was a little space shooter. 🤭 It was fun.

[olive ermine]

Does teleporting kill ur fps also? When i tp i need to wait for game to calm down,.i drop to 10fps

[spiral swallow]

would love to see your taskmanager on that running all off this.

[hot plover]

Can it wait a few hours? Ive turned my laptop back off after pulling it to bed to help that newbie a few moments ago xD

[woeful stone]

I drop to like 30ish when I first TP to Tortuga, but it's usually fine with others

[hot plover]

Well I haven't despawned the ships yet so I'll do that when I fire the game up again

[formal marlin]

tbh I can't even have my one frigate on screen without framedrops. turns into an actual slideshow when I'm in boarding combat. Naval's mostly fine though

[compact quail]

[spiral swallow]

because he can't wait

[queen lion]

My fps drops in alot of ways, if I stop steering on my ships it's like I'm playing hopscotch while it's moving.

Teleporting into the base seems to take a little longer for me.

And on occasions the latency gets bad enough that the game lags enough to give me a frozen screen for a few seconds.

[cyan veldt]

Have you updated your drivers?

[olive ermine]

I see. So it is overall still ways to be optimized yet. Thnx for the info!

[compact quail]

u do u. i can wait.

[frank rapids]

I always use chain-shot against gunboats. It's super effective.

[queen lion]

I stream the game via someone else's rig basically. So while my driver's for my ChromeOS is updated, these are simply Server/Client package losses from me piggybacking off someone's system.

[fathom hull]

I never use those

[formal marlin]

you can oneshot gunboats with even just 24 pounders, no need to chain shot

[lofty notch]

THAT giant walking treee is gay 😆

[surreal sierra]

I never use chain shot anymore tbh

Upgraded cannons and all round shot kill the enemy faster than is needed to use chains

[haughty ibex]

chains are useless

[cyan veldt]

Don't need it in the BB frig, that ship just destroys everything

[woeful stone]

You'd probably just kill them if you shot them normally though. And as chain shots have less range, you don't ever need them to catch up

[surreal sierra]

They’re good if you’re in a prolonged fight and need some distance to repair

[compact quail]

issue is chainshot becomes... less used when you have a maxed out frigate.
but i liked it in a 1v1 against higher enemy, cause you can literally bully any 1v1 encounter into not being able to hit you

[fathom hull]

I rock the blackbeard brig with 24 pounders, its fast asf and tbh I dont even know if I want the fregatte. Maybe I get the one with tons of cargo space and use it as some sort of tanky cargo ship for transport

[normal meadow]

me too, I maxed my ships guns and can rip most backbeard ships in one good broadside

[surreal sierra]

But if you (like me) have everything maxed out then there’s no point to using chains when round shot will kill everything fast enough anyway

[slate meteor]

hello guys, after the update the game is acting very weird and worse 🙁

i have a i9 - 13 900k and a 4090 but whatever i do the game just locks up at 30 fps even tho i have set it ingame higher. and gpu and cpu usage is in the 10-20% range ... so its deffinitely not a hardware issue

does anyone know what to do?

also every time i turn the game off and on it resets my settings

[surreal sierra]

This

[frank rapids]

nope, not with green 12-pounders vs over-level ships

[queen lion]

Just get the Black beard frig.

Take the extra health and the extra size cannons at only the cost of one knot

[formal marlin]

you know, actually, I realized I don't know for sure: on a frigate, do the 36 or 24 pound guns fire first?

[fathom hull]

from what I heared the frigatte tends to acc slow and is very slow in general plus it turns horrible, so I rather have a brig with 6 guns per side moving 22 nodes and outmaneuver my enemies

[quartz locust]

tell me there's a way at some point to get 4/4 and 2/2 set bonuses, please

[woeful stone]

I never touched them on early ships either. Though I am mostly talking late game when everyone has a Frigate

[hot plover]

You get two decks of canons with the frigate

[queen lion]

Top deck guns are smaller than lower deck iirc

Top deck shoots first

[compact quail]

health is irrelevant stat for ships
you can heal in combat and outside by like 3 different means

[lament finch]

ok... would be REALLY nice if we were allowed to set a respawn or something on our ship.... so that when we die during a boarding, we arent spending the next 30 damn minutes sailing back. it gets old fast after the 3rd of 4th time doing this crap.

[normal meadow]

the bigger guns are the main, the smaller are the secondary, so the 36 pounders fire 1st

[olive ermine]

When they add belts. Its highly requested feature to be added

[fathom hull]

okay cool but it turns horrible

[finite sage]

Then stop dying silly

[frank rapids]

sure, but there's a lot of game played before that, and chain-shot is definitely useful when you don't outgear everything you fight

[compact quail]

[queen lion]

Reported

[pastel frigate]

@lament finch Start placing fast travels on shorelines close to your activity if you plan on dying. Little bit of prep is all it takes.

[fathom hull]

just because a ship has many cannons doesnt mean directly its the best lol

[hot plover]

You right. It do drive like a brick. I've found if you reduce speed on the turn it turns a biiiit faster but yeah.

[cyan veldt]

I have the BB frig maxed out, and can take on easily 10 high level ships, and destory all of them

[green wigeon]

it blows my mind my mother things i care about my father

[queen lion]

Having the extra health never hurts when going against 9 lvl 15s

[fathom hull]

I prefer speed and maneuverability so the blackbeard brig will stay my main ship until they add galleons

[subtle blade]

I hope you have a damn good reason for not. 🤭

[formal marlin]

That... actually appears to be incorrect? having tested it just now the guns marked "II" on the UI fire first, and those are the upper deck cannons, so those are presumably the 24 pounders/secondary slot

[lament finch]

again, WHY make players do that nonesense? just let them set it in their OWN SHIP. why the hell should a little tent have more power than a full blown ship?? its a video game, let a player have some quality of life.

[cyan veldt]

It's the best ship in the game so far

[woeful stone]

Not always... but in this one it does. The ships are very much a direct upgrade here, it's purely vertical progression, rather than horizontal

[compact quail]

the bluescreen outtake of this scene is so much better

[untold oriole]

I too like slamming on the gas during turns...

[green wigeon]

yes, i do.

[finite sage]

I might actually make a Blackbeard ship for exploration

[fathom hull]

yet again it turns horrible and it feels awful to fight with it

[hot plover]

Oh hey tiddles I bought a cookie yesterday because of you and your cookie emoji. (That and this cookie supports some Timmie Ho's charity or something so feel good too)

[abstract aspen]

now i need to see it. one second

[olive ermine]

I am corpse bombing every island because losing high tier food to some random jank even in combat is not resource smart. Just placing a tent on it lets me stay there untill i finish.

[formal marlin]

So you might be able to get some mileage out of having only your 22 pounders be Devastating to apply the debuff, and making your 36 pounders Perfectly Ordered (or Tempered if you're some kind of weirdo)

[fathom hull]

I highly suggest the blackbeard brig for that cause its the fastest ship in the game so exploration will be pretty fast

[rancid sierra]

"It steers like a boat. ...wait. That sounds silly."

[abstract aspen]

now i want a cookie too

[untold oriole]

Reduce speed, bro

[queen lion]

You don't lose food?

Ahhhhhh

[olive ermine]

The buff*

[fathom hull]

I already do that big dawg, that doesnt negate the horrible turn speed of a fregatte

[formal marlin]

you can summon the ship to anywhere, I think making it also be a respawn/fast travel point on its own would be too much

[abstract aspen]

i thought the same at first. battle a little and get used to it! it'll definitely feel more natural after some time

[untold oriole]

I mean it's a boat that's like half a football field, what the hell do you expect? It ain't a civic

[fathom hull]

I actually also like the way the brig looks, I just hope they would remove the stairs near the wheel, I think they look horrible

[lament finch]

i highly disagree. its a freakin video game man.

[primal ether]

Mind if I quickly voice an unpopular opinion? We're not ever getting any new ships. At least, none available to the player.

As much as I personally want to see more ships made available- like Cutters, Schooners, Galleons, Corvettes, and others -we're likely not going to see them added. The way the game's structured, they really aren't necessary outside of vanity.

This is an opinion I desperately want to be proven wrong on, mind.

[lofty notch]

lmao... i climb up a pirateship while hes near a beach and now he drove away with me 🤣 free ride

[queen lion]

I've noticed the turning of the frig is just delayed. I've been able to make the same 90° turns as my fellow crew members so long as I start my turn beforehand.

[compact quail]

why are these "cookies" soft and wobbly

[green wigeon]

make one, mother

[cyan veldt]

It's a frig, they are huge and would turn bad in real life as well. It's about tactics and picking where you turn, even though that can be a challenge most of the time, due to NPCs trying to ram you all the time

[fathom hull]

the stairs near captain wheel on the brig annoy me, but outside of it the brig looks so neat

[olive ermine]

Where do u get info on no new ships...its a game about ships as 50% of itd content

[abstract aspen]

I'm out of chocolate and a cookie without chocolate is not worthy!!

[queen lion]

I'd rather the AI just circle me than me chasing the AI

[compact quail]

i was about to say server need that one pepe cringe emoji, but it already has it

[primal ether]

I never claimed to have any info. I literally said it was an opinion.

[formal marlin]

climbing onto the brig from the rear (the most common facing when you summon it) puts you top of the captain's cabin and not directly onto the deck, literally unplayable

[woeful stone]

Wouldn't say 50% of the content.
Maybe 5% at most. The vast majority of the game is on land

[abstract aspen]

we already got a teaser of a few ships iirc :)

[fathom hull]

thats why I be saying I prefer faster ships, so the brig suits my the most. I dont just go by what ship is the best per se based of gun amounts

[compact quail]

Do raisins.

[untold oriole]

They already have other ships in the files, they've been found. And the game has aa ton of purely aesthetic things for building bases

[spiral swallow]

https://tenor.com/view/hot-chocolate-pour-gif-15106129

[olive ermine]

There will be more ships

[cyan veldt]

Every time I get into a battle, they just wanna ram into you. I hope that is worked on

[primal ether]

Where? Because I haven't seen anything beyond datamining and speculation.

[compact quail]

raisin cookies are great. fight me.

[abstract aspen]

oof gimme a second.

maybe someone else has it saved too

[subtle blade]

...how is data mining not sufficient evidence?

[cyan veldt]

Isn't the BB frig also the fastest out of all frigs?

[untold oriole]

They mined the data from somewhere. Why would they bother making them if they didn't plan to put them in the game?

[olive ermine]

I wanted to ask this also

[woeful stone]

I expect there will be a new ship with every new zone they add, as that seems to be the progression line they're going with

[formal marlin]

while you can have comparable survivability with a brig with maxed out bracings, I think the extra guns of a frigate make them objectively better, even though the turn speed factor does matter for keeping fire on something. it is nice that you can downscale and still play that way if you like, though

[compact quail]

could be future content, could be scrapped because didnt work

[untold oriole]

Yes, it also has the biggest cannons available

[queen lion]

Half of them ram me, the other half gets close enough to broadside me because their buddies rammed me and put me at 0 knots

I have to compliment their tactics, but ramming ships does barely any damage (consistently) for the enemy. So they don't have much of a purpose to do it besides unloading their broadside and taking yours.

[subtle blade]

I mean sure... But there are multiple ships in there and the likelihood of all of them being scrapped is functionally zero

[olive ermine]

Holy.. thats a captains hotel not quarters 😱😱

[hot plover]

Because not everything data mined will be implemented. Valheim has weapons that can be data mined that literally have no in game implementations

[compact quail]

i refuse to believe these ships were real
what captain would like to be in a room that is like 35° tilted

[formal marlin]

lmao there's no way in hell my PC is gonna be able to run those things, guess I dip out when they drop

[spiral swallow]

That one was teased here earlier from one of the devs or mods
