Gunny1981 1 Posted January 16, 2019 and you can still sink ships, just need someone to come and cling to the ladder and the weight counts. pity that the patch has brought nothing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fefu 43 Posted January 16, 2019 You can whistle ladders up and down so in theory you should be safe if you pay attention. Or am I missing something? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shintai 117 Posted January 16, 2019 I was surprised you could climb the ladder, but the new meta evolves fast. There are other ways to sink people that is a lot easier than weight or crew numbers. 3 minutes ago, Fefu said: You can whistle ladders up and down so in theory you should be safe if you pay attention.

I was not able to whistle other people's ladders down while in the water when I tried it. Or are you saying letting them down from inside the boat? Can you please explain the mechanic in a bit more detail? Would be appreciated. Thank you. Edited January 16, 2019 by Fefu Addition Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MaxPower 126 Posted January 16, 2019 The patch notes also say they shouldn't be able to move if over encumbered... so even if you can still cling to someones ladder to add weight, how exactly are you suppose to get there carrying too much weight? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Akai 4 Posted January 17, 2019 (edited) U can park with the back facing beach so no way to access the back ladder or park dingy/raft under it. all other are just placed in the snaps only 1 long so they dont reach water. That way other ppl cant place ladders on ur ships (yea you could place rope ladder on other ships in PVE) portable doesnt add to the weight (tested by company mate) so if ur carefull u can make ANCHORED ship like 90% safe. Also parking between 2 shipyards make it impossible to get next to urs with other ship. Its hassle but u can atleast defend against casual griefers hardcore ones will allways find way.
