Ransurias 36 Posted January 7, 2019 I've been through several companies thus far, but none of them have really lived up to my initial impressions or facilitated a truly enjoyable gameplay experience. I'm not keen on being a zergling in a massive company, but I'm also bummed out by the large volume of small, mostly dead companies with ~5 players online at any given time and ramshackle bases on Lawless servers. My ideal company would have ~40 - 80 active players on a PvP server, a limited number of obnoxious children who think that getting a headshot on a giant snake with a flintlock is going to get them famous on YouTube, a decent and established base (nothing grand or spectacular), and an overall focus on enjoying what the game has to offer rather than focusing solely on base raiding. It wouldn't kill random people on sight, and it wouldn't go out of its way to sink other ships or grief other players "BeCauSe We CaN, LuL." It would expect players to contribute and do their bit for the greater good, but it wouldn't force people into specific roles and take the game too seriously. I'm the kind of guy who enjoys going on taming runs for exotic animals, doing resource runs for supplies that are scarce in our server, hunting for treasure, leveling up, and making sure the company stays stocked with weapons, armor, and artillery. I do enjoy PvP, but only if I feel like there's a good reason to be attacking or killing a specific group of people -- I don't like it when some airhead hopping into Discord arbitrarily whips everyone into a frenzy because "hey, it's 11 PM, isn't it a great time to raid a NA company that hasn't done anything to us in the next grid over until 4 in the morning?" I haven't been able to find the right company, at least on NA, and I'm starting to lose hope that such a company even exists. The company tool on this website is next to useless, and r/SailTogether isn't much more helpful. I'd be happy to roll an EU character if that's what it takes to find the right group of folks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Before watched slightly some streamers, if being NA, maybe try Pirate Bae or Late Shift, however they propably only take subs or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, like I mentioned earlier, I really don't want to be part of a twitch streamer's zergling army. And the idea of having to subscribe to someone's twitch just to get into a company sounds repugnant, ya know? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Those 2 are the only that remotely can be called "friendly" and not abussive, not playing pvp, both NA nor PVE so can't help further. There is uganda and other those streamer things but those ocmpanies are just a hell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
