RichardG 0 Posted October 30, 2019 Currently sailing round N9 looking for all 17 discoveries, the only ones that seem to be working are landing on an island for the first time. I pretty sure I have been to the correct location for the other discoveries but they do not activate. (For example the Window Seat on Racastle Island at 77.17, -14.10) Are they broken or is there a special way to activate them now, pretty sue when I used to play before the wipe you just walked up to them.

Shadow Wolfe 3 Posted October 30, 2019 Noticed that as well. I recalled one play thru, my first real episode on SP that I got into after the last big wipe and everything shut down on MP for a week. Kinda enjoy the SP portion now and haven't been back to Multiplayer. But I had taken over one of my first islands and decided to build a small base around an NPC ready made dock that was located there. Spent a considerable time there, build a Brig and a Galleon, and gathered all the resources in and around the base to build and equip them. After they were completed, decided to move the base to a newer set of islands in a different grid. So put as much stuff as I could carry on one ship and moved it. Then fast traveled back to get the other ship, and then boom, I got a discovery notification about a "Hidden Dock" on the dock I had been using the whole time. So I'm guessing you have to do the fast travel thing to activate those other discoveries. I haven't begun to really test that theory out, cause so far its only happened the one time. But my plan for this new game I started is to build a small base on each and every island I take over, and to stock each base with the necessary equipment for when I fast travel to it, then run around the island to see if I can pick up anymore discovery points. I've noticed on this new SP I started that there no longer is a level cap on the Freeport islands, guess that was the fix they implemented after Xbox players were unable to gain any XP at all or something.

Geminia_Sierra 20 Posted October 30, 2019 Ever since Single player came out, discoveries have not worked. Discoveries for the island worked, but not the one on the island. I have done fast travels and they still don't work. YMMV of course Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
