archaegeo 192 Posted January 16, 2019 Seriously, i cant give people rides anymore unless they are my allies or company? I cant sneak on a ship and hide as a stowaway? This is not the solution people wanted, and in reality just opens up more griefing, just park a flottila of rafts around a galleon and the owner can never get on or off. This was NOT well thought out. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Poot Pootington 30 Posted January 16, 2019 I'm dumb and don't understand the patch notes. What exactly does it do? I get the sense from your post that players can't get in ships that are not in your alliance or company, but how could they possibly prevent players from jumping onto another players ship?

archaegeo 192 Posted January 16, 2019 Yeah, but you anchor your galleon overnight and come back in morning unable to get off of it because rafts are parked all around. And of course you cant go on a friends boat or someone elses to look at it even if invited, etc. its bad for RP, its bad for regular play. All they had to do was not let people move if overweight. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

archaegeo 192 Posted January 16, 2019 If a ship is anchored, you cannot get on it if not in your company or alliance. This removes lots of roleplay (hence the ability to turn it off on private servers) but it also opens up a whole new world of griefing Just anchor a bunch of rafts around a ship and now noone can get on or off the ship.

It actually doesn't stop players from jumping to another players ship, what it does is let you but seems to also glitch you so your just floating in the air doing nothing. 1 minute ago, archaegeo said: If a ship is anchored, you cannot get on it if not in your company or alliance.

You are going to need a lot of rafts to accomplish this and if just 1 person gets to their boat those rafts are gonna be pushed right out of the way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jumping onboard of any not owned ship that is not raft = stuck untill dead, say by to items that carried etc. 2. What op describes is some griefers can put a fleet of rafts arround soeones ship and they can't get out/get on that ship bcs there is no more walking on someones ship if anchored, in short, they can't sink thy ship?, well, they gonna make sure thou wilt not have fun with that ship either.

You would think, but grappling hook/glider can be workarounds to that. It's not perfect but it's not like the rafts are completely immovable, most boats can easily push them out of the way.

Jozzie McTowel 170 Posted January 16, 2019 Their fix is basically them saying: We are unable to program it to a level where the boats just don't get encumbered when anchored. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh I'm not saying grappling off of the ship would solve your problem, I'm saying grappling onto your ship surrounded by rafts would get you a work around to the "griefing" method listed. You getting upset over everything that isn't raging with you is getting rather old though. As for a workaround to your situation, when your neighbor comes on either see if they will ally or if they will build you a water barrel so you don't get stuck in that situation again. Again I'm not saying this is the best way to handle it, but it does seem like a nice punishment at least for the griefers who were causing problems. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(All assuming ship at anchor) So people can still board when the ship is not anchored? Seems reasonable. Just raise the anchor if you want to give someone a ride. I'd rather have to figure out how to grapple or jump over a raft then lose another ship to a weight bomb. Did players being able to carry infinite weight by picking up dropped items get fixed?

I’m pretty sure you can’t get banned for it because the devs made it led to this. This is another patch that’s good for PvP but bad for PvE. They don’t seem to understand there are PvE’ers on this game too. Edited January 16, 2019 by Percieval Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maar 17 Posted January 16, 2019 Why does this get missed??... Disabled non allied players and creatures basing on anchored or docked ships which can be toggled with a server-setting on PVE servers with the in Game.ini - set bPvEAllowNonAlignedShipBasing=true If you want to allow non allies to be able to be on your ship Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
