Hmmmm..... The trench I can dig with the shovel actually kind of looks like it might be able to get fairly close to handling a brig's draft. I don't think it quiet can, but it's not by much. Maybe 2-3 shovel "digs" away from being able to do so. It is very finiccky and really stretching the limit of how far I can dig, though. Standing in water just inches away from needing to swim, fiddling with the mouse to just get as far as I can reach, etc.

S is the best weapon class/tier right? i don't think i have ever seen it.
Riddle me this.. Why is there a server location selection thing.. that actually doesn't let you select what region you are playing in.. and constantly tries to put you in the laggiest farthest server location possible?
i have a dream of being able to ride truffle
You know what this game needs? Pumpkin-vs-Parsnip battles 
when is ashlands?
November at the earliest. If you rushed through the game hoping new content would come in a couple weeks.. oops.

Dear windrose developers: I would like a galleon or a man o war thanks!!!
no no i am taking my time it coming out in november or afterwards is great that means i get to max out everything go play othergames then come back
You have time to build every variant of every ship, fully max them out in +15 purples, max out every piece of gear, cook 1000 of every food, and build the perfect pirate castle 
I'm hoping for a hot add of lockable chests that disable the ability for the loot in the chest to be used even in campfire range and locks other players out of it
hopefully with ashlands update we get more summon type artifacts and a mount some islands are big
I would assume that with Ashlands we get Truffle+ and the white crocodile added
a skill tree that buffs summons or make them stay longer would be nice
So a truffle tree?
yes
...go to jail.
I want the ability to rename truffle

Good morning, folks
Hello everyone, greetings
ahoy
Will we ever be able to customize our ship? By this I mean build one piece by piece. and my second question, Will the ships become more immersive in the future? such as interactive stuff below deck, controlling the rigging to avoid a mast snap and so on and so forth.
lmao good luck with hoping to build the ship piece by piece
Nobody who's going to answer you has any idea, and I would imagine even KE doesn't know how ships will ultimately end up
Careful what ye wish for
That would be a cool feature.
Darn
We got no clue at this stage. Devs are cooking one last patch before the REAL grind to finish the next major update so its anyones guess rn
I’m sure we will will just take time
Thats good to know.
@surreal sierra I request to have that ship on my account please…I need to be the most feared pirate on the the 7 seas
so even though i saw that everyone said you cant get drunk... curiosity killed the cat .... safe to say after 45 rum bottles you cant get drunk
Patience matey.
And word is it might not be added eventually because of the performance problems it causes
so since WR is still Early Access, temper expectations at this stage
I pray that they fix all the issues and find a way to implement it I just be THE pirate
Hello t'as toujours besoin ?
hello, are there any tips you guys can give when joining a windrose community?
No i dont think I will
Is that not a form for self advertising? 😮
buddy clicked a bad link, compromisd account
I never clicks random links. I barely not open any dm's either.
i am not sure if this is even close to historically similar/accurate to the fantasy world of windrose. I mean i can see some ironclad or even timberclad. but this one is a weeee bit advanced in terms of firepower
meh its just a picture i found, has nothing to do with the game
these keys to various poi's need a way to be broken down or melded into something else
these did exist, if a metal fantasy ship is needed, some ideas
yes make it into a bigger key, then a even bigger key, then a giant key, you can use it as a weapon, but you might turn into a mouse... things are usually not that simple and clean
or somesorta treasure room dunegon or treasure fleet spawn
nope just a 50 foot long key
I think if you get 1 million keys you can access the Windrose backroom.
throw them on the ground
I can't wait to see those ship of the line volleys, it will be glorious 
ruling the waves with these two maxed out gods of the ocean
wth are those keybinds 😭 
Don't trust anyone
yeah , i know, the default didnt work, bug maybe, its the same buttons on my keyboard, it looks odd, but it works
silly question, I can't make iron bullets, but I can make arborum bullets, what did I miss 😱
You missed iron
Esp this guy right there @trail compass he will still your money
Hey I'm a honest thief if I steal I'ma tell you beforehand 
Thats pretty honest 🗿
For sure there ain't nothing worse than searching for something and not finding it later
naw man, they already have trouble optimizing this. cant even do the ocan drop off to delete items i bet
You do know that you can load all the stuff you don't need and throw it in a completely different world right?
right but then i have t rick and morty there
Like yeah it's annoying and they need to add a delete button but it ain't the most important thing in the world
i mean, we have a delete station it just need to be improved
or let us sell more things to the factions
I wonder if you can destroy items with the shovel
That moment you realise you've been running 12/24 guns on your BB frig... those 36'ers sound nice but damn they are slow loading 😄
what?
resetting pois or mines delete items
not that ive encountered, ive come back a week later on some of these and still found things left behind from not being able to vacuum it up
doesnt work on a dedicated server that runs all the time in the mines. but resetting pois should delete items
anyoe else wants to be able to hire npcs to fight with you in navel combat
like you build a ship for them and they use it
commanding a fleet would be cool but also probably not very fun considering the competence of AI allied ships currently
not to mention they would sink the boarding ships
part of the competence issue. they'll sink them if they're even still alive by then
Well, you have a flag now on ships when they're ready for boarding. That could be the signal for your fleet to stop attacking.
idk i think you can mark the enemy ship with what you want the ally ship to do
or you can have them to automatically not destroy ships just damage them and stall them
That right mark. That could be the cue for AI to stop attacking since the enemy is basically defenseless.
Thats the boarding signal. The ship is disabled and ready to be boarded.
oh I see yes once that appears the AI would stop attacking
other bot vessels such as smuggler ships and whatnot will still bombard them regardless unless the boarding is engaged fast enough
Finally, one step closer to maxing gear
no. i like to play my games myself.
plus naval battles with ai are a pain in the arse
this tallent seems to do nothing. tested it with dueling greatsword.
whats the effect tho?
it for sure does something. it is noticeable if you max it out
stam usage down for 2h weapons
that could be so much money...
ah it % innit? those need more points to really stick out yea
nothing is more important than the hunt
10% less stamina use for 2h, but with and without, i end up in the same place in the circle.
the hunt for profit!
I have tried every little trick to get Windrose for under 25 canadian, every key site keeps offering accounts?? (I am on disability so broke is my best friend) ... The game looks so good.... Time to save for next month and buy via steam directly....
i mean they could act like truffle or normal summons
even at 3/3, 25% effect, the i use 2/3 bars still, with or without the 25% tallent.
did u do the one naval fight where you have a friendly ship with you?
its a mess. and the ship acts restarded and doesnt do what you want it to do
want to board the freighter? good luck, it continues to shoot it instead of the other enemies
i know for a fact you get more hits out of your stamina bar with the skill.
show a video where it is the same with or without the skill
devs could probs work on that
or leave it as is because its a survival game where you fight enemies 🤷🏻♂️
i never liked the 2handed playstyle. not my thing.
devastation rapier and dueling saber does the same with more comfort for me^^
or almost bloody Dies like the ranger lmao
i started with a saber back in the demo and when i started now i use a stalwart greatsword changed to it mid thomas fight and never changed back since
whats the overall best hull?
i like the rapier of a thousand cuts
does it make a difference in normal atatcks?
maybe its just the heavies that dont really count or use stamina differently compared
Oh nice, usually my swamp islands have just been swamp with a bit of coastline sand around. This one is actually with coastal jungle hills surrounding the swamp all around 🙂 Too bad there's not much else there.
are islands randomly generated?
yes
Hey guys. Tell me please, are the trees respawn?
that makes the one island I found with "oops! all pirate camps!" even funnier
no. but you can regrow em
no, not one bit. 5 swings ends me at 5% left. with and without.
No
trees/palms* and tarwood does not respawn.
divi-divi Do and i heard plaguewood does as well but i didnt verify
Hope that divi divi will regrow..
they do
i wonder if stamina used is a flat amount or "x% of". the latter would mostly negate such a talent outright
once you get past hands your merchants can sell em
Past hands?
2nd boss
gave myself 25 endurance to increase stamina, results still the same. This is with dueling greatsword, ill test a few others.
Hmm. Killed him already, but didnt see divi divi merchant)
anybody have an idea of when ashlands update comes thru?
You have to go to either people of tortuga or buccaneers (i think) and buy a merchant contract for natural resources
its a thing you can buy from a tortuga merchant called "natural resources". its a stand you can place in your base
Ah ok got it. Ty
5-6 months.
thanks
I need more giggity powder
then kill more thralls
is ashlands like a volcano biome
I wonder if they will make the Ashlands update compatible with existing world saves
why are you wondering about this. your player will remain either way
Someone posted a quote the other day saying that they will do everything they can to maintain compatibility throughout updates.
Probably all the stuff you have built. I know I'd hate to have wasted all that time.
like 1% of games when it has a new update isnt compatible with the old version
And yes, I know early access means that is a possibility, but it's always nice if it can be avoided.
people will riot if worlds become incompatible
me: ehh, imma restart, no biggie
interesting how he said 99% and i said 1%, its almost like its true
i think ill probably restart on a harder setting too, i have mastered croc hunting
everybodys the tough guy till the bushes flash red 
whats at the question mark 
ur mums open legs prolly

dear developers please add hard tacks and dried jerky meat food recepies!
Hey guys i enjoyed the demo sometime back is the game worth buying now?!
I think we'd be lucky if they add any requested content yet, they have biomes and content they already working on
At this point, outside of large base building projects there is about 100-150 hours of gameplay. Up to you if thats worth the price, but over 2mill people have thought so
True also is their any plan for map exspanisons and other stuff added
The word is it could be up to 6 months + to get the next batch of content as well
u fatfingered
the first priorities for updates should be whirlpools, sharks, and walking the plank
matey
dear devand animations!
I cannot confirm 100% but I think the next update will be the Ashlands biome with all its content
my captain wanna stumble abut plastered drunk!
after boarding another ship and winning. you should be able to recruit the cowering remaining sailors for crafting or your ship crew or make them walk the plank
Who'd be walkin' the plank? Do we get to do that for fun to the ship's sergeant after a successful boarding action?
the cowering sailors after winning a boarding
next thing you'll want to ransom them 🙂
Working on upgrading my ship to level 15 gear now.. my personal weapons and gear are 15
you are becoming very powerful
Farming thralls for fun and profit
Morning (sips coffee)
Looks like a custom marker. just right clickit and it should disappear
you can only make it there by using smallest boat. make sure not to go over 5 knots cuz it may corrupt ur save
@hallow cove i hate you
anakin be like
mornin mornin. \
sorry
Mornin
bought 2 of the same plan we need a way to sell them back or trade /give to someone else
@hallow cove , stop DMing me. I don't know when the update will come to allow us to bury a chest and dig it up again without destroying it. Sheesh! (sips more coffee)
wtf
Wow, sadly my PC is too old for the game to look this good. I still love how the graphics look for me though.
is it true that if i touch a 1000 cuts rapier ill be able to craft it? as in if a friend has one?
I have a friend on an older PC that was out of the game requirements but she added memory and magically everything works now.
I'm on a gaming laptop with memory maxed. I plan to upgrade in December when stuff is on sale.
Just dropping and picking it up didn't work for me.
I had to craft them but my friend take it from the workbench to get the recipe.
Oh wait, is it one of the older Nitro V 15s?
Anyone knows if they plan on adding 1°, 5° and 10° rotation of items into the game? 🙂
It is crazy how this game sold 2m copies in 32 days. I guess we'll be getting more from Kraken Express in the coming years.
ahk then.. i mean my friends dont have it either atm haha.. RNGesus doesnt like me so just hoping to get it that way along with drake pistol
I didn't get the 1000 cuts rapier until right before the 2nd Boss. It took forever.
Quality draws appreciation and this game is a quality start. I never got to play the original playtest but I played the DEMO for 100 hours. I knew then that this will be awesome.
Used a Dueling Greatsword to stab at the first boss to kill him. Along with food for vitality and endurance
Is it possible to up the numbers of players above 4?
yes
I beat the game in 150-ish hours. Spent a lot of that time just exploring.
Ooo okay, how do I up the players on dedicated servers?
when host a game type in up to 8 where it says 4 before u start up
does it take long to get getter building pieces like better stairs?
Okay, I think I’m on bit dedicated server so I’ll have a look at the settings
pvp me on windrose... oh wait
sorry i only know when u host a server
is there a way that my friends can acces the inventory of my ship?
damn not going to lie playing this on the new steam controller actually see how useful track pads and the ability to bind multiple keys to buttons or keybord input.
and then u will never ever use bananas at all in the game and the trees will just be there useless
Does it actually work with ANY steam game or only certain ones?
yes also you can add a game as a Non-steam game and bam you get you steam controller or really any controller support
I actaully have the right click of the mouse bounded to my l1 replace controller l1 press so I can walk backwards lol
in fact you can do this by using steam imput and that gets around it just there more features like half press full presses even touching the stick can be used
I mean fish and tostones is my just screwing around food, but a nice orchard is a nice orchard
I mean who to say a future update wont give us more uses for them banner cream pie be pretty boss or banana bread
I want little hats for Truffle!!
_> what that is a thing?
It is indeed.
Its a beautiful day to hunt ships and explore for islands.
I could devour one of those right now ngl 😄
for real xD posting that early in the morning xD
How do I get the whistle thing to call the boar? Every time I use it, nothing happens.
I've beaten the final boss, unsure if that prevents me from every using it or not.
use the whistle and the boar spawns. there is no requirement
Devour wat ?
i havent eaten but def could eat something
Can soul eater ever get to s tier?
FINALLY!! i found bretheren main base camp.
I got so many crates to sell to them its crazy. Plus i been hunting ships for the bounties to increase rep so i can buy more recipes for building and clothes.
i think u misunderstand how that works.
weapons do not just upgrade to a better letter as a mechanic
its fixed what scaling weapons have and some change with ascending up or down
they upgrade once when you ascend and that's it
we should get rid of valheim food buff system , back to ATLAS nutrition stat , its not pirate if u cant get scurvy
no
no
what s the point of lime juice after swamp juice 
-# health being mostly dependent on food is a bit tedious ngl
everything from previous biome become shites
since our tool and weapon have no durability , therefore pointless to farm low tier resource except building
thought this might be a big issue after endgame
I’m lvl12 guys, is soul eater and pikeman set the best farm set for me or is there better ones out there?
yar, hello...and yarr
What would make it the best farm set?
Longswords in general are pretty ahh atm unless you just really enjoy them nothing wrong with that
I mean in faster defeating mobs mb
There’s no wrong way to play but sabers and rapiers are definitely the quickest and safest way to kill I think
no
Is there better sets?
fist and survivor set
I play soul eater pikemen and it feels better than rapier of 1000 cuts
soul eater is not a good sword
If soul eater is a 3/10 weapon, dueling longsword is probably a 7/10
Anyone know why I’m randomly getting Russian text and “missing string table entry” is it because I have a stack and backpack mod? How do I fix it?
numbers made up randomly
Noted noted, I’m running the agi/vit build so hopefully the dueling longsword gives me a bit more boost
It’s all personal preference idk
The dueling longsword will only give you a boost if your play style is parrying everything… even then longswords are slow and don’t hit for that much more than the faster weapons
My personal favorite is the rapier of devastation. The sturdy rapier is like right behind it for me
Thousand cuts sucks once you get to swamps
did you even play the game?
saying greatswords don't hit for that much more than one handed swords is wild
and dueling buff of 30% is insanely huge
except longer reach, significantly better damage against higher armor value targets, pretty quick heavy light combo... would take rapier of devestation into 1v1 every time, but when there's more than 2 I'd prefer that dueling greatsword
I prefer sabers vs multiple targets
The longswords are honestly terrible and should hit for more with how slow and clunky they are. I used 15 dueling longsword quite a bit and still feel that way
reliable blunderbuss , my beloved
2h are too slow and clunky. most of the time you take damage from targets because the damn swing animations are so slow
people also use 1k cuts and insists it's better than regular rapier without any buffs...
I’ll double down and say if you’re playing solo, longsword is pretty great. Once you get into laggy multiplayer especially on other people’s servers, they are absolute trash
I find any 2h with you will answer for this and retribution talents good
2 handed has vastly superior combat buffs (from talents)
because it needs them lol
Yea... it's almost like every weapon should be judged with the full package.
2h with the combat buffs still isnt good enough.
musket+rapier destroys almost everything ive come accross. 1 headshot from the musket then pokem to death. never fails
Not to mention you can dual wield 1h with a pistol that heals you to full in 2 shots
I just found the rapier of devastation lmaoo, any set ideas on this?
Filibuster hands down with 60 precision
you'd take that over a quick double shot pistol that also applies damage amplifier debuff?
I really enjoy both. I prefer sparingly using my bullets as healing potions but I still agree with drakes (is that right?) being top tier
it seems to me that the game allows you to successfully choose multiple combat styles, and each one seems to be effective in its own way. I dont think there really is a meta for this lol
While I agree, weapons with slow combat animations are ridiculously punishing in multiplayer
Seems like an ideal situation, though I lack the progression and full grasp of the gear sandbox to meaningfully opine. I'm still trying to figure out if I'd like an agility or precision based setup more.
yeah thats just from latency sadly
personally precision is my favorite but thats because the firearms benefit from it as well
I recommend getting both loadouts and deciding on your own. Both shine imo
Question: Are trees not spawning in anymore? I cut down a bunch of trees - most of which are nowhere near a base, and they have not come back.
I love to parry. I also love muskets though. But I like the impact of the double-handed swords.
Let me introduce you to sturdy rapier and reliable musket 😏
ive noticed you need to sometimes leave the game entirely. some stuff wont respawn like that
imo, only reason I absolutely hate that plague pistol is because my chest is already full of purple healing potions and despite of playing a lot it's not depleting much.
By the way, I took out the stumps as well. This seems to be fairly new - it hasn't been a problem until the last few days. I've left the game several times, and this time, I left it overnight.
ok now you are just trolling.

I already elaborated after this, they’re just too punishing in multiplayer lag. When I play solo they’re great
Most trees are not meant to come back, but some might due to a bug
ok your lag is not the swords fault
what are you talking about? trees that i chop constantly respawn?
That's funny, they have always regrown before this. It doesn't make sense for trees not to respwan.
Pretty sure devs themsleves said that they do not respawn, but might be remembering wrong
I think that'll work pretty well.
The group I play with has played just about every survival crafting game under the sun and windrose itself seems to have more issues with lag
Might it be a single player bug? I know that happens in Ark. Single player resource nodes not respawning has been a pproblem in Ark since the game started ten years ago, lol.
player with a friend that has really good internet.
i have bad internet.
we had no lag
Everything else that is meant to respawn, respawns just fine around my base
I've cut trees outside the reach of bonfire and none of them have come back, which I'd prefer
Bonjour Est ce possible de réduire la taille d'interface svp ?
not sure about any of that. so far all ive done is play on my friends dedicated server that we pay for and every single farmable node respawns, from rocks to random fiber plants
I just checked, and trees are meant to regrow - except the ones outside the bonfire circle. This is a problem because coconuts are not respawning, and I'd prefer not to buy them. Plus, I don't like trees not respawning - after a while, the game looks dystopian without flora.
bro what lol
I don't know what this means - and my divi divi trees HAVE been respawning (not the ones near camps, but the ones without any camps near them DO respawn).
on my friends dedicated server everything I have cut down has respawned, Ficus trees, tarwood, palms, everything has respawned
May be a mod. Ours do not respawn. But we do replant (ficus, palms, etc).
It might be a single player issue. This happens in Ark as well, especially when you harvest nodes and then log out quickly. I might have to harvest and then stay in the game for a while (this is why I put my solo Ark games on a server, lol).
Any yt vids that has the best build for rapier of devastation?
u serious?
it says divi divi respawns
I have no Windrose mods.
shake coconut trees dont cut em down
Is it possible to reduce the size of the interface?
I wouldn't type it if I wasn't serious. Why would you screencap your own comment? 🙂 I have shaken the coconut trees, the coconuts don't come back.
Depends on your goal.
I run RoD with Double shot pistol if I'm DPSing. Plague pistol if I'm tanking.
Swap between filibuster set for damage or pike for tank.
idk if this is turned into a superstition, but we leave the stumps and I think our trees have been respawning. If you cut the stump they do not. We cleared all the trees near our base (not in our circle), and they never came back
they do
that is why you should be buying wood. it exists there for a reason and is cheap.
(with the already mentioned exception of divi-divi and plaguewood).
They have not where I am. These are the ones outside the bonfire circle.
There can be server sided mods I believe.
We have an entire island with no bonfire that's been cleared out. Stumps still there. No trees will regrow. It's been weeks.
I'm not playing on a server. This is single player.
Well same is happening in singlepalyer for me, no trees coming back
bonfire has nothing to do with it, just come back later and the coconuts will be back
I was specifically responding to the guy who's playing on a dedicated server, I didn't catch it wasn't you.
ah well theres the answer, so we've been leaving stumps for no reason. So that would actually end up in my feedback then. Trees should respawn, or there should be a way to respawn them (not the farm trees, but actual trees)
okay, in case you guys don't know this, I REALLY appreciate all the feedback! 🙂 I'm just trying to get a definitive answer - if the trees don't respawn, I'll not harvest wood anymore.
the thing about the bonfire though. the goats still respawn w/in the bonfire radius
** thousand cuts is still GOAT **
check the pinned in #🤝│player-help from Tona. She have done lots off research on it
as of the plague trees, just remember that only certain patches respawn. not all of them
everything about trees was tested. plague and divi divi are the only trees respawning.
Just farm plague Crocs
Moving day!!
(And when they do, it's either a bug or modded)
what are you talking about?
normal ones?
maybe. idk if theres a mod
Yeah, I have a dodo that attacks me every time I log in - my base is right near a dodo nest, lol. Little brat. 🤣 😂
Plague puppies bite though. trees don't XD
I'm Terrified of moving off spawn. We have so much... literally 15 chests of fiber 😭😭😭
Thank you! I couldn't remember who it was that did the experiments 🙂
oof. Im moving now before i have too much stuff. even tho i got alot already.
I've been killed by trees before 💀
Do i Need a new world After the next content Update what do you think about it
no need for new save
no new world is needed
I didnt say they didn't bonk 😛 but of the two logs, one has a lot more teeth.
I cut down a tarwood, it fell and knocked down another tree, And that one fell and clipped into the ground, the uppercut me. I laughed so hard and wished I was recording
You gut tar trees???
I felt like coconuts were respawning, though - but they have not come back either. This is dumb - trees regrow! I know, because I had my orange tree in my house cut back severley and the stump regrew, lol! (I was happy about that). It doesn't make sense for trees outside the bonfire to not regrow.
coconuts are not trees and respawn
This is what I thought, but they haven't come back.
Trees inside the bonfire boundaries shouldn't regrow, though.
need to leave the palm tree after taking coconuts and be outside of bonfire range
how does the voice chat thing here work? I know I can "join" the channel and it'll make my own separate little voice chat room, but can anyone join me, or do I have to specifically invite people?
This is what my new island looks like. I havent explored it yet but once im done moving. Im gonna run all over to get a proper look.
Anyone have a rapier of thousand cuts i could get from them or made for me? Would be huge stuck on a boss on hard
RoD is probably better for bosses Imo. RoTC is good for multiple smaller enemies
pulled a full tekken combo to get back at you xD
Okay, though, thanks everyone! Now I know that the trees won't come back, I won't be so cavalier about cutting them down.
I have one
#SaveTheTrees
#DeathToDodos
I wish you could buy seeds. I haven't gotten very many ficus or palm seeds at all.
You can shoot them down with cannons. Just a fun fact.
I do love hitting them with a 36lber broadside.
Should we chain ourselves to the ficus trees?? LOL - I can't afford the 36 calibur yet - I'm just now getting to where I can sink a ship - so that's why I was concerned about buying coconuts and wood, LOL. I need Windrose food stamps! 🤣 😂
Sent ya a DM
Coconuts shouldn't be too bad, a quick run around any random island should yield a good amount
Oh man, ship combat gets good. I have a Blackbeard Frigate with high level cannons and hulls. The combos you can pull off ...and healing half your HP on ship kill is goat.
I was just concerned for the future - but by then I should be rich enough to buy them.
Yea. even level 5-10 loot ships start giving quite decent amount and when you get to 10-15, there will be loot
Coffee and sea food platters are all you need to focus on lol
ok, cool. I've collected quite a bit of coffee. And I have some sugar now too.
1 single quick trip and earned 10k silver in 10-15 waters
Game just kept sending more ships, might as well loot
When they seem to flee into another convoy.
I pretty much one shot all ships now
That's impressive. I still take 2-3 volleys for the lvl 15 warships.
I think that island only has 1 Blackbeard treasure in the middle and nothing else
Devastating 36 pounders and 12 pounders
okay, cool. Thank you everyone! Note to self: No chopping trees anymore, lol! Have fun Ye Mateys! XOXO
anyone have a crazy range build set up?
@limpid ermine yeah range is the bestv
Gotta have the reliable musket I know that
It did and i dug it up already.
Then that island is done
hello guys, i just downloaded the game, is there any available public server?
No but you can check here for dedicated servers https://discord.com/channels/1260209458924224542/1493029476970270740
thank you sir!
Servers are small. I think 10 is the highest I've ever seen.
Wym done ?
@limpid ermine send u dm
did anyone find legendary gear so far?
There is none yet
I don't believe there's any in game yet. Purple is the highest
sad
I suspect we'll need Ashlands to get the material to ascend.
I think it's gonna be like October before anything better
anyone found a way to kill swamp boss solo? the other 2 were easy, but that giant fish makes me sad
Range set up worked for me
|| use double shot pistol and pop the zits on his back. It'll stun him. Then RoD for big combos||
Kinda suck being 100% done on everything gets boring lol
I was using infantry musket and dragon's breath. had the piercing shot talent on so destrying those boils to stagger it faster with the musket and shooting it with the dragon's breath when its stunned. fight was easier then when I fought Hands
The limit of early access I guess
SUNK THE BOAT didnt save the guy on the boat for the quest what do i do?
Uhhh you can start a new world and then go do it. Your missions follow your character, not your world.then just hop back on your main world
what does that mean lol it doesnt reset
Ur character stay the same no matter what
Nope. I joined a friend's world and still had all my activite quests.
Your inventory also comes with you, and your ship. So if you wanna clear an island for wood, you can have a sacrificial world LMAO
you dont need to go to a new world. just sailt out of the quest area and the boat will respwan
sigh, and i so much wanted coconut palms integrated to this garden...but seems foundations that near block coconut respawn...
anyone did some experiments, how much distance to foundations is needed for resource respawn?
Saying goodbye to my first camp. All the memories of constantly dying trying to survive lol.
If i destroyed the support of the base will it drop all the resources i used to build it ?
Uhh. Am I just a crappy gamer or does this game need some balance??? The boss I am supposed to be fighting one shots me even when I block. Strategy to complete anything is set up a tent, get 2 hits in before you die, eat, run back, and do it again. After about 50 times of that you progress......
I can come give u a hand if u want
Maxed gear
sounds like you should skill some more vitality and maybe bring more healing potions?
Maxed gear. 12 vitality. Thomas whoever one shots me every time
well I had even less vitality and that didn't happen
weird
i have 25 vitality, with precision food and coffee for endurance...near 1k HP...
try to avoid his grab, and evade the grenades....should work
Use seafood platter and coffee then some potions
good morning me hearties
Yes, but sometimes if enough building is wrecked at the same time, the loot will just float in mid air and you'll have to build stairs to collect them. Because spite. :p It'll also cause a heck of a FPS drop as it explodes everything for a bit.
Apprecaite it
You sure you didn't set the difficulty harder?
yea i know about the floating loot. I just wasnt sure if i get the resources back after demolishing the support so i did one floor at a time.
Ubcan drop everything at one and it will give u all resources
all destroyed resources drop, most question is, does it all fit into your backpack...
building 3 floors out of plant fiber has got to be in the record books somewhere
I just hate the wall of smoke bursting through the stone fireplace chimney, and through the walls in my house. I need to quit dumping wet leaves in my cooking fire, and waterlogged undead in my bonfire. >.>
Thats all i had access to and i was getting alot of loot and resources very quickly so had to build something to make room. but its since been destoryed and all my stuff has been moved to my new base location.
Im way too settled at my first location base to ever move it lmao. On Richards' island no less
so, should I do more building today or try to find my first swamp?
so kinda new to the game, how do i get passed the barrier to the Tortuga market?
OOOOh, I should visit Tortuga to see if after defeating Hands I can get past the barrier
ill let you know in a second
sounds good
Just like that moving day is done. Time to build my new home.
You just have to keep skating along the outside of the island until you reach a dock that will be outside of the barrier. I'm pretty sure it's always on the south/southeast of the island.
Edit: Oddly enough, the island of Tortuga has selling vendors, but no buying vendors. If you want to sell stuff to the People of Tortuga, the buyer is on another island, like all the other reputations.
well I can get into the governor's house
Im thinking about building a cliff side home. Wat yall think ? im gonna build a temp house for all my benches
awsome i will give it a go
after i build some docks because demmon doggle made me look bad lol
Hey all new player trying to figure out how to join an exciting server and pointers
listen, I've just never tried it and I've always heard there's nothing there anyway
here we go
#1493029476970270740 might be a good first stop
yo is there no suggestion channel or am i blind?
no
I bought the game time to dive in later
Enjoy!
What u need suggestions on
no luck so far ( I meant to add a screen shot to this, hang on.)
I just crafted and upgraded a weapon to 15 and it dissapeared from my workbench and inventory...??????????
Where u trying to go
actually just a mandatory lemon bar 
Just a temporary home thats all. lol
it's my favourite sword, but it does need a rework because the special atk being cooldown for most of your fights just neuters the whole weapon
My suggestion was for someone that couldn't find tortuga to sail south until they hit a dock that wasn't covered by the undead barrier. :p
If you want to find the "People of Tortuga" main base that you can sell stuff to, that's on a seperate island.
oh, and here I thought this was about crossing the barrier lol
this is what i got for defeating 3 elite armored undead. 1 of wich a 2 star 😄
lvl 12*.
the shipwreck island.
i was expecting something huge lol
that island is probably the greatest time waster in the game 
Yeah fighting enemies on land is basically pointless
enemies don't even give exp do they?
Ship combat is too rewarding and land combat isnt rewarding at all.
depends on your idea of rewarding
No xp. Only benefit is what they drop.
Dont even give good rep rewards unlike ships which grant like 15ish per ship + repair consumable + 50-100 silver worth of tradables
yea
There are intangible rewards to defeating land enemies
I think we get too many repair materials and rep rewards when killing ships
"Not being bothered while exploring" isnt a reward. Its more of a requirement.
the only reward for killing land enemies is resources like undead essence or gunpowder(before unlocking crafting it)
there's also satisfaction... e.g. it's fun.
I don't feel satisfied after spending half an hour hitting one overtanky enemy that had a key for a chest
The challenge rewards for trophies to increase comfort level are nice, and in zones 2 and 3 land combat is more important
If you are hitting an overtanky enemy, you should check your build and items.
anyone here used the Windrose Companion App from the gaming tools website?
Each level difference between ur gear and the enemy is a rough 12% dmg reduction
Im about to get the game and need people to play with anybody down to game?
I wasn't able to upgrade my gear further bc I could barely tickle the first boss, I could barely tickle the first boss bc I wasn't able to upgrade my gear further
lmao I just attacked on my own dock by an Armored Drowned while I was moving stuff out of a crate
Lvl 5 gear barely tickled the boss? Are you on multiplayer?
no
what difficulty are you playing on?
Guess it could come down to ur stat allocation, talents, armor set bonus, and food/potion buffs then
Cause i had level 5 gear no dmg stat allocation, no elixir, and no dmg stat food buffs and don’t think it took more than 5 min
Granted i’m just playing on like base game mode not hard
the "standard" one, but I feel like the difficulty setting should be treated like old fire emblem...
Imho enemy health as a whole could drop like 25%.. keep em deadly but not brick walls...
Also playrrs are wayy too ounished for blocking to the point where its not even a viable option.
Also gear stats mattering more vs enemies than stats feels... bad..
I've been wanting to try multiplayer
im on that one too with my friends, if you are doing solo, the boss will only focus you and it can be harder
It rewards perfect blocks and does a semi-realism thing of inducing fatigue from repeated guarding
Hey friends, we just finished up all the content and are looking to just save our server file on Nitrado and cancel that service. Does anyone have experience or recommendations on how to do that? TIA
he has this one grab attack that does nasty damage and can one shot you with no buffs
That’s fair, i just got lucky rng for gear early so had rapier of thousand cuts and drakes double to face first boss with
You can dodge that one with the dash, just like rushing boar
ooo that was my first gun! the head, eyes reference was cool
is there any way for me to play on a wolrd my friend made when hes offline?
yea that one was painful, same with alpha wolf grabs. I feel like the grab indicator should appear a bit earlier to give more time to react
is there only 1 boss in the game
no this is the first boss we are discussing
There’s at least 3
so far^
okay just wanted to know dont spoil me what and when just was asking
Only seen 2, but there’s 3 zones so it stands to reason
there was also one random named dude in a pirate camp I found who had two normal sailors linked to him
Which i'm fine with but it goes away wayy too fast and it feels more punishing to the player than the NPC.
breaking a boss's stance should allow you to really have a cahnce to get in on their hp bar except most of the time you just deal one hit and they're awake.
Also because you're regularly swarmed it results in the player getting hit 2-3 times when block broken where as an NPC wakes up from the first hit.
There’s a few like that
theres plenty to do outside of doing the main story/bosses
Has anyone done the fishing yet?
some
I was trying to kill the sailors but noticed they kept respawning so I just gun cheesed the main guy from on top of a tent where no one could reach me
That’s also a fair look at it for sure, i try to make sure i’m not surrounded though as that’s bad no matter game world or real life.
fishing is good. its less minigame and more resource gathering tho
Word so you don’t get fish? You get supplies?
yeah its a nice mechanice
yeah the issue is theres no real way to prevent being surrounded other than stab run stab run
@shadow star You get fish but they're used for cooking and fishing is more just "Press button when you see splash"
No u get fish, but it’s only useful for a collection, and 1 food item that is good to great depending on ur food buff setup
Huh okay, I thought i was gonna be able to pick up mats
Yup, the tried and true method, although I pepper in a few pistol shots, you can also use ctrl to dash dodge as blocking and running aren’t the only options.
also i'm fairly sure fish are bugged to give you all types no matter where you fish instead of shallow water/ocean
Would be cool if we could fish for parts or something
fish for blooprinds :D
Wasn’t able to catch the purple fish anywhere but deep water so might depend on server/world
You cought a 24 pounder with the devistator mod
I use dash more than block but block should really be an option every so often rather than hyper punished, if its so risky that death is a likely outcome for even blocking once then why have it at all
Not being able to fish up boots seems like a missed opportunity. Like a non-set pair of boots that gives you some kinda swim speed or somesuch.
Fishing up a boot is such a long standing trope, I kinda miss it when it's not there
If NPCs were to ever come to life I would either face serious retribution from Black Axel or serious love, I haven't figured out which.
a boot we can put a little plant in 
"you caught a magik- wait what"
I would def love a set of amor you can only get from fishing
"the marniner set"
It’s meant to be used for perfect blocks is all i can guess as u don’t lose posture shields for that
The black dot armor set
nah, fishing boss fight, you fish up a huge crab or octupus
We need some references to Peter Pan, why isn’t there a crock boss with a clock inside him
a kraken evenually once you fight your way up the sea boss chain XD
Yeah but most people aren't going to practice perfect blocking when you're more likely to die from missing it than hitting it. Even darksouls gives you super armor on a bad parry
I wanna find captain hooks hand on a beach somewhere
not his hook?
I guess that’s what I meant by hand 🤚🏻
thats a cool idea
kill a crocodile, get a hook hand
i'd kill for a hook as an offhand weapon
ugh.... go find my first swamp or check these places out? .... I can come back to these places, I think.
That would be an amazing visual mod to be able to find
go for the xp!
Along with his red coat 🧥
It’s a work in progress i’m sure, but there’s armor and wep setups made for it if you want to face tank. If you don’t run, stab stab, run and dash are gonna be the main option. It’s realistic as rogues, chevallier’s, etc aren’t known for blocking maces and greatswords with daggers and rapiers
good point.
swamp is kinda scary dude XD
most of my critiques come from the angle of making it more friendly to new players since i'm sure we've all been killed by a dodo or boar in the first few minutes.
If I played with other people other players can destroy the base you built im assuming
What level are you?
I'm a high 11
why is the gif so wobbly...
Dodo’s not unless i was forced to afk when roommates needed me, boars definitely
about swamp level but more xp is more xp lol
Lmao idk 🤷♀️
Ive heard of a few youtubers killed by a dodo lol
Definitely go for xp
I despise the swamp as it’s always dark and I have vision issues and can’t be crafting torches all the time while being assaulted by the creatures within
I definitely got wrecked by dodos
brrooo why can't we buy misty orchids from the natural merchant
For the people ahead in the game can we have a pet bird?
oof, you could set up a mini base nearby with a box of full lanterns or animal fat to refill them
Theres a pet boar
I know about the boar but a parrot would be fire.
oh for sure!
use the lamp, fill inventory with fat 😄
yeah pets are heavily requested.
I want pet options for monkey, parrot and cat
The lamp sucks gotta be honest
Monkey would also be fire ngl
Since pirates were known for keeping exotic pets.
I can bump up to 12 with a few more Foothills visits (Sorry, wrong reply)
is your gamma low by any chance?
get an OLED, makes dark scenes far better.
I want a swamp puppy as a pet
cricky the croc!
I have my brightness set to max and @vernal grotto unless u wanna pony up the cash to buy me one in this economy that’s not happening
I'd also kill for a pet hyena pup
oof that sucks then dude
Thanks for answering my question! I just figured since there was a boar there would be more.
That’s not what a swamp puppy is lols, but a hyena would be interesting. Swamp puppies are alligators/crocodiles
i know what you meant, i was sharing wwhat i want
if we could also ride said croc into battle......
The also made it come across improperly then due to context
Okay wtf is that
what is your GPU?
ItS nOt AlWaYs AbOuT yOu!!! xP
go touch it
dammit, did my ex come out again?!
Hug machine
Thats my mom
bet
oh its a curse rotted greatwood baby!
thats what we call a material farm. mark that location on your map
I have no issues with every other game under the sun, it’s not a gpu issue lols, i just have literal eye disabilities

just buy new eyeballs xP
hmm ok
If only
dude is cyberpunk here yet? I want some new eyes lol
people should be born with 1 body part refund ticket
can I have many instead of 1 tho?
Would love to not have the astigmatism, extreme myopia, kerataconis, vissual snow syndrome, and extreme dry eyes. New eyeballs would be lovely
same atleast 4 would be great
plague crushers
foundit
ooo or we all get a customization screen before birth
Well thats just unrealistic xP
The real dream
I am a big dreamer 
well technically-
anyone know where the second chest is in the traveler's camp if theres no red tree and the note states that its beneath a red tree
look for a tree with a red cloth on it
Red tree is near by
it might be further away from the camp
not fully red tree, just like, a red scarf wrapped around it
Is old dead tree too
It’s also usually bone white/dead with no leaves
theres none ive done two of these camps before and had no problems
I wonder if there's some way to tell where below the tree it is so I don't have to dig a whole moat every time
I can join u and find it for you
for me i can usually dig once and see a few sparkles if its there. so you do have to do the moat unless you get lucky, but you should only have to do the moat one deep before the top edge of the sparkles is visible
sometimes they're further away
Yup. Sometimes they can be completely behind other trees/shrubs, and hard to spot from the tent.
Usually they have a leveled up boar or dodo guarding it too, so you can see a lv 12 dodo.
Afternoon. How are all you psychopaths doing today?
@calm mason lovely how are you
I'm breathing, can't complain.
can we get some base raids soon?! lol
Gets flashbacks of bats/drakes swooping into open windows, chimneys, and eating all his pigs and chickens in Valheim.
That sounds like a terrible idea. :p
We'd have to train our doctor to man the decorative cannons out by the dock.
lol
game just came out in EA, let them cook
60m on sales should at least give a boost
no kidding
I want to shake davy jones' hand
me too
oh look someone wants a kraken, how novel
.
That's the no. 2 request behind PvP
ummmm yes.. I did not play on easy mode
Squids and the sea are an ancient tradition,
pvp would be great
If we're going with sea monsters, the kraken is definitely overused.
ok...give another Idea
sure but also classic, sirens would be cool too
oh look, more firebowls
I say return to the classics: giant enemy crab.
oooo
honestly I'd hate a kraken just because it's the main source of my fear of the ocean
what if it was... nesting mother kraken and her babies?
oh yeah sharks got nothing on squids lol
giant jellyfish
Zombie orcas would be horrifying.
"There is a snake in my boot." -Woody

I now request a zombie orca you can tame and ride!
New home has been built. Time to build a warehouse for my supplies lol they just chilling on the dock.
nice
where's my parrot for my shoulder
First floor interior. I like it cuz its very open. Before my interior was stuff with benches and crates. Felt very closterphobic
looks nice
We even have parrot cages in the ships' cabins, and buildable empty cages. They're just taunting us at this point.
WOAH
right
I'm blown away by what some of you are doing with the game.
Meanwhile I'm still trying to figure out how to turn my character around fast to face the boar attacking from behind.
I am no captain with out a parrot
turn up the sensitivity of your mouse and flick
does somebody know where i get that "special item" for altar stones on the first swamp island?
Main quest.
meh so i need to kill the swamp boss before i can look into this stuff
yes
sorry, what do you mean by flick?
No, just progress until you can read the local language.
maybe its an option i didnt realise i have turned on, but when i hit block as im running away, as long as my camera is facing the enemy, my avatar flips around to block in the direction of the camera.
sorry shouldve been clearer, flick the mouse to turn
Little flea flicker on 2
oh thats neat
so if you keep them all on the same side of you it doesnt take very long to reorient if you run away by running toward the camera
hanged chest ? I suppose this is after mod
nah its vanilla
I did it by putting a platform under the crane, using a tree stump seat to put the chest on, then used chains to connect crane to chest, and deleted chair/platform
that's some cool gear
big brain engineering right there 😄
Stealing this pronto 🤣
ty its the pikeman 5 piece

I am having issues loading in today, when I try and join my solo or hosted server it loads for a super long time then just sends me back to home screen, has anyone had this issue?
any servers to join ?
no access
Go to channels and roles and assign yourself
thanks boys
hello windrosers
sup
any1 getting this a lot too when dropping items? 🙁 third time in 30 mins now
no
i dont have any issues at all tbh
It's silly. You have to accept the Lookout role and receive notifications to unlock that channel.
Clicking 'no' for notifications locks you out of that server promotion channel, even though it says you will get all the channels regardless. >.>
i didnt either till latest update or patch it seems, weird
Have we heard from the devs about any soft content drops between now and the major update?
nope
using mods?
I tryed clicking ok on it but than i figured out its a screenie. No errors here!
ugh the bigger boats turn like garbage lol
If you slow down one tick their turning radius shrinks
not at all
The damned frigate steers like a boaaaaaa...... nevermind.
Our Dedicated Server reset to Day 1 after the host crashed. We downloaded the backup from Steam Cloud and replaced the files in both AppData and the server folder, but the server keeps ignoring them and loads a fresh world anyway. Does anyone know how to force it to read our old save? Thanks!
slam it into reverse, handbrake turn it, then full throttle again
Might want to ask over in https://discord.com/channels/1260209458924224542/1493764667074412797.
thanks
I don’t even know how servers work for this game lol
Question: What do I do at the Sacrificial Altars around the Priestess's chambers?
read the prompts and put in the correct amount of the item it tells you to
Come back after doing the main quest to the point you can read the local language.
Not those ones. The ones with the crocs around them.
ooohhh yeah, you gotta be able to read the language first
I am at that point. It says I need a special item, but I'm at the final boss and haven't found anything yet. Is it from the boss?
You have to do them in a particular order. For me it was bottom right first, not sure if that changes. Otherwise you get the same text as before you got the dictionary.
WTH IS THIS STUFF ?
Swamp Herpes. Hold your breath while inside
Both fantastic answers lmao
lol hold my breathe
Just don't stay in it too long, you'll be fine.
jc, never found out, do you start losing health like drowning if you overfill the curse meter?
Honestly couldn't say, I never let it get that far.
Same lol that's why I wa asking
@quartz vine New plan: do stay in it too long, for science!
It's instant death. Just, poof and your're done
|| when the curse meter fills, you just drop ||
I was going to chop this tree down right after I dropped the extra shovel I received from a camp but I think I'm going to leave it now
Think you might have anger issues?
so, right after I print screened this a goat showed up out of nowhere and I punched him to death. Yeah, maybe.
No, I'd say that's an appropriate response.
I guess my pirate name is the Goat-Puncher now
Anyone else have any info on boulders respawning? I think they do...but its kinda hard to tell
anyone got a rapier of thousand cuts i can touch please
You can clear those graves on the map by right clicking them
As in ore? Every 6 hours.
No, the non ore boulders (the ones you have to mine) around the map
Oh. Huh, no idea, I get all my stone as a byproduct of mining.
No, those are memorials. Places I never revisited after I died there
believe me, if I didn't know that already there'd be a heck of a lot more.
play the game ffs
or trade me with 500 coffee bean
what's it take to craft one once you've got it
All bow to the wisdom of Snappy, das kleiner krokodile.
is it possible to get 1000 cuts(bleed rapier) before foothills? the 2 playthroughs i've been on has gotten it in foothills.
okay, y'all ain't kidding, this is a beautiful spot for a possible base
put a bridge here
I've worked so much on my regular base though
I got mine in the chest directly behind Richards, so technically jungle.
just got jumped by 4 skeleton
i gotta say, its random drop
I got my reliable pistol in swamp , but some got it in hunter s camp
jumscare
I keep mine in my inventory but never use it 
got mine before foothills
I dont think blackbeard likes the fact im sinking their ships left and right. I was being chased by 7 ships lmfao
Wusg my gagos
do we ever get to go in the island in tortuga? like the rest of it, not the port
Hard to turn around in that cove thouggh
I hate it where it spawn so many
LMAOO rippp to u
its that hentaivirus everyone is scared of
"This is fine."
you're going the wrong way
awwww, look at the little one in bac
Me last night "Im gonna sink another ship...AND BY THAT I MEAN MINE yep its gone" very entertaining for my crew to listen to lol
I think I've used up all the XP I can.... out of Foothills that is
windrose needs sea mines
legionaire's disease
Not currently.
guys guys we are missing the best answer of them all. KOOTIES!!! lmfao
It is the Hidetaka Miyazaki Approved Dark Souls Swamp.
Why don't I have the permission to promote my server?
Ok one sec. Im buying nitro rq cuz man qaulity is terrible
depending on what level they are, it is
Gift to me thanks 🤣
https://tenor.com/view/spare-change-change-beg-begging-gif-12592756
Go to california, they're super cool to the homeless. They spend more than anyone else on trying to eliminate it, but somehow it keeps growing and growing
imaging begging without offering something in return
I offer the goat's soul
I'll buy your soul for a dollar.
oh hey i forgot my pfp is a gif of two ships firing at each other.
Nothing more fun than broadsiding when youre within arms reach of the enemy cannons
I wish I woulda gotten a video and not just a screenshot of this, but I wasn't exactly prepared for it
Let the 36's roar.
If you jump onto an enemy ship WITHOUT BOARDING can you kill the navigator ans leave
i use Steelseries.
the keyboards that are over $200? eww
Their mice are nice.
Dont mind the youtube video in the background but the ships approaching from both sides was tough.
What ? No. That the name of the clipping software i use. lmfao
oh, well I'm not recording or streaming in the first place
Well thats your calling to start
background noise can fit awfully well in places
... man this height difference makes it real tough to board
I mean I dont' doubt the keyboards are too, at least the ones with the hall effect switches, but I have a hard time imagining what they could do differently or how differently they can really do it, to justify the pricetag on them
Just sink 'em, barely any loot to be had boarding those.
still lol
For the mice, I've got one of their older ones I picked up cheap - mostly I like the weight to it.
I will say one trend I noticed lately that I don't understand, the skeletonized mice with like no weight to them.
I never paid much attention to a mouse.. currently I'm using an old madcatz Rat 4 my friend gave me
I hate this. I love a heavier mouse
It keeps getting worse and worse cuz more and more people come here, not realizing that the cost of living here exceeds that of most states by a significant margin
yeah me too. a mouse's weight isn't something I'd ever thought about until I learned they make ones that come with changeable little metal weights, and then about 2 minutes later I learned they make them super lightweight too... and yeah, I don't need a big heavy mouse, but I wanna at least have it weigh enough to know it's there
Supposedly it's because a lighter mouse feels snappier, and shaves miliseconds off of aiming if you're especially weak wristed. But I have trained my wrist for decades....
if it makes you feel any better, it keeps getting worse everywhere else too because califonians keep leaving and moving to other states where they continue to vote for the very same bad policy that ruined california... But now we're talking politics, and that's not allowed here, for good reason
you have to earn a 6 figure salary just to live paycheck to paycheck
been using an ancient sharkoon mouse for AGES until it finally started to die. thing had removable weights to it. thing was fantastic
Policy didn't ruin California, Rich people ruined California... Most of our problems are from housing developers, private equity firms/landlords buying houses to artificially raise rent prices and the overall silicon valley techbro basically starting a bunch of unsustainable business trends that went very south
I was using this "ergonomic" thing for a while... thought it'd be easier on the wrist, but it ended up being just slightly too large for my hand. I couldn't hit the forward button on the side without adjusting my grip every time. the programmable analog stick was interesting
thats almost a controller. damn 
Not quite but close
I kinda wanna try one of those MMO mice with the whole numberpad on the side, but my concern there is I don't know where my thumb's gonna rest and not hit buttons accidentally
once you have you get use to the numbers i have for when i play warthunder to key binds
speaking of controllers... look at this weird thing. Instead of a right analog stick it has a touchpad and a bunch of buttons for commonly used keyboard keys for gaming
Touch pads for controllers are so hit or miss tho
how would one even tackle this... is it used like a 3ds? xD
(kid icarus uprising came to mind*)
This looks very interesting, but I feel like my right hand would just be floating. I like a sturdy hold of my gaming interface, but this buddy's got no real comfortable grip on the right side.
Still want to try it out, though
can someone please explain the difference between these 2 cannon balls and how they should be used?, i never hit with the 2nd set?
so I think the idea is to give you access to the commonly used keys near WASD so you can have dedicated buttons to certain things that on a normal controller might require a long press or a button combination, or some weird menu navigation. And then the trackpad should theoretically control more like a mouse than a stick, giving you more precise aiming... It all sounds interesting in theory, but I wonder how well it actually works in practice. Unfortunately the controller is 60 bucks, and that's a bit too much for me to throw at a neat experiment
''many people are typing''
The second one is chainshot, shoot the sails to slow them.
id rather have the ps4 touchpad that almost no game really uses than motion-control.
"shake the controller to stop your arse from burning" or stuff from until dawn and so on
oooo! thanks
if you look up "IINE touchpad controller," you'll find it. I can say their knockoff switch pro controllers are nice
Honestly I never use it, better to blow more holes in them in my opinion.
I'm also trying to figure out what game would control best with it. Maybe a Mechwarrior game, or something with slower, tactical combat.
thats what she said. sorry sorry lol
No you're not.
are we not able to see the contents under "diy-contest-submission" channel?
It's pretty rare that I use controllers on PC, especially if aiming is involved, but I have these for when I do want a controller... And they're very nice
well that's interesting...
was fighting with the thought of getting a ps5 controller for the times in the future when one is needed.
all older ones died on me with the usual "used" trauma of dead buttons and stickdrift xD
The 90s were a lawless time in controller design.
They reinvited that and called it an Azeron 🤣
That's what actually made me finally decide to buy an 8bitdo SN30 Pro. I had an old xbox controller, and it started drifting on me after like a week or less of playing Dragonball Sparking Zero. The SN30 Pros had hall effect sticks, so that was an easy choice
They even named it after the ship from Alien.
It's been thirty something years, and I misplaced it, but I'm pretty sure it had an optical mouse bottom, 15 keys, the 16th would light up three leds under it, for a total of 45 buttons, a d-pad, a scroll wheel, and the orange button did something.
"hall effect" ?
never heard of that before ngl. whats different on those?
These contract guys are so helpful.
oh hell nah wheres the other joystick ?
so instead of whatever whatever normal mechanism controls the sticks, they use magnets that never actually make contact with anything, so the idea is that they're meant to pretty much never wear out, or if they do, it'll be long after a traditional analog stick would. Pretty much every serious 3rd party controller maker is using those now, or the next new thing, whose name escapes me at the moment
They're also using hall effect switches now as an alternative to traditional cherry mx switches in mechanical keyboards, so you can get the functionality of an analog stick in a single keyboard key... so instead of holding shift to sprint, you can change your speed by how hard you push down on the W key instead
woah who's making thesse?
honestly pretty much every 3rd party controller manufacturer uses them now, and their options are like half the price of what you get from SONY, Microsoft, or Nintendo without hall effect sticks
ok, thats kinda cool.
all i know about is the box-standard stuff and that there are different keys be it the usual or clicky or ones that are supposed to react faster somehow lmao
my loud af clicky board will be replaced at some point xD
There's a real popular one going around right now called GameSir. Some of their controllers are like 20-30 dollars. Look 'em up on youtube, you'll find all kinds of videos of people ranting about how great they are.
I have nothing against them, but I really really like the aesthetic of 8bitdo's SNES controller with analog sticks, so that's what I recommend, but I've only ever heard good things about GameSir. My buddy just got two of their controllers and can't shut up about them... and he's the kinda guy who used to play with an Xbox Elite controller for like 150-250 or whatever they cost.
mmo left hand pad, i had one of those 😄
I'd be more than happy to share some links, but I don't know how whoever runs this discord would feel about promoting specific products. usually that's a no-no
feel free to DM me lol
Just refer to them as "equipment to use while playing Windrose".
sounds like that "scuf controller" nonsense if thats even the right name.
had a mate in the old console days who got one for 200-500€ or whatever and wanted to hear non of it when other told him that its kinda useless
we need to go back to this. I need my full body haptics
I ain’t scared to invoke the Power Glove 🤣
Lil buddy needs some Atari 2600 joysticks and paddle controllers and he’d be set 😆
OMG just tried the second boss (the Hands dude?) ...Any small tips for him?! hes so fast
Shouldn't it be alligators instead of crocs aren't crocs in the Nile and alligators in the Americas and the Caribbean
There are wolves
I don't think it matters
American crocodiles. Native to the Caribbean, and tolerant of saltwater.
There are saltwater crocs in southern Florida and into the Caribbean
Can block his swings, dodge his flashing attacks, run from his spectral shot and ranged attacks, get him in between those, rinse and repeat til dead 🙂
this is my first game where a boss is like...actually hard 😮
Shhhh our age is showing
the best part is two skateboards
check your message requests, I sent you a few links
Right… lol
So it begins
Good luck
If you hit print screen on your keyboard you can screenshot your screen. And welcome to Windrose if its your first time playing.
Boar or dodo, what killed you first?
good luck
a freakin boar cus I underestimated it
Haven't died yet hahaha
mods, send 50 wild boars after this man.
Woo team boar 😛
hell yeah! lmao
I love the feeling of the game relaxing and adventurous
the thorn fiddlers 🥀
For now my friend, for now.
i underestimated the dangers of a group of large crabs and got my butt whooped for it
I just killed 2 boars lol but I say my resting place is bear soon in Davey joneslocker
for me it was either the thorn fiddler or the drowned. I remember joining in the middle of the night and having to run up the beach to get to his camp
the most amount of times i've died came from that one quest where you dig up the treasure and get swarmed by like 5-6 drowned
btw- slight update for those who know
I've planted another 600 trees finally to add on to my already 4k trees planted
You trying to make Milton Keynes?
Anyone crashing more regularly recently? We are a group of five and the amount of crashes we have had as a group tonight has been crazy.
This gives me the urge to go clear cut another two islands.
I haven't had a crash yet
Neither have I , but the others have had about 7 between them in the last few hours
lmao nah, i wanted to make my own forest and add some beautiful lush greenery to my base, I love seeing the forestry, brings me a weird sense of happiness until a random thrall comes stumbling through my forest
I should
Move to a swamp island
wish we had first person view
Swampland eh? No wonder your house is on the beach, lol
100%! and yeah I'm in the swamp lmao @quaint gazelle, my wife is building a tree house to avoid the locals out in the swamp herself but me? I'm more of a nice beach house surrounded by an absurd amount of trees kind of fella
(it's a kind way of saying to myself that I'm a coward)
personally i just start from the coast and then work my way inland
which is rather difficult to do with the island i chose to set up shop on (damn you hills
)
Great... now I have to make a treehouse as well as my 3 other individual looking bases 😉
Her base so far, she used the hollowed out tree as a hut for her crafters
She loves the bog witch aesthetic
Its theeee dungeon if u get it
nice

My wife's ship is the Sea Witch

🪱
My house feels boring compared to shreks hut that person just posted
That's awesome lmao my wife and I named our ship off of our daughter Reyna
always better to have any sort of house rather than trying to tank the elements
these builds are incredible
makes mine look like a 1st grade drawing
I know whats wrong wit it
Aint go no gas in it
ya know I was happy with making my forest then I go and see this... I'm sorry I'm playing your game q..q
My spanish tavern, called the Spanish Pig
haven't had anyone over for dinner yet 🙁
Well obviously. Ain't no food on them tables.
already got axel working double time
working on it!
Rookie numbers. If he's not pulling 36 hour days 10 days a week he's not working hard enough.
I was working on making something similar to this!
built it 3 weeks ago and haven't touched it since XD
still only like.. beginning stages atm for mine
trying to line up the dinnerware is such a pain cuz my comedically large feathered hat keeps getting in the way
honestly the silverware and such is absurdly large lol i wish they'd tone it down on the size
the silverware is perfectly sized for my absurdly large sasquatch hands
"You can only have a spoonful."
shovels are just unwieldy spoons
Spoons are daggers, shovels are great weapons
"I showed her my two handed greatsword, and she said, 'Nice Dagger'. Send. Help."
Okay spent a bit building, really had some fun with it.
nice!
Yoo its king bach
even my merchants seem happier
Ngl- seeing a Longest Johns Cameo as in ingame traveling tavern bard group would be fire ASF.
im too poor to visit that 5 star hotel
