Hello fellow pirates, After almost 200 hours playing this "game" my schooner sunk alongside with my patience. I was saying to everyone "the game sucks in terms of development but it is fun to play you should get it" but after spending this much time in the game and looking back this game is nothing more than frustration after frustration. Let's start from the beginning, first off all it took ages to find a place to set up base and by base I mean, 1 Flag radius. After that we started our galleon which took ages to build but that's besides the point, took it to the sea and lost it because we died at the same time and couldn't spawn inside the ship while we were being attacked by a SoD ship. My question is, how the hell the most basic stuff is not working properly, THE SPAWN! Moving forward, we sucked it up and decided not to waste time on a galleon and get a schooner for each member. We built 2 schooners initially, one of them lasted 2 days, until we tried to get a purple chest, lowered the anchor the ship glitched out and sunk. Once again, we were kinda "fuck it, its a schooner, we can build another one relatively fast". In the meantime we built 3 more schooners, today one of them sunk again. Why? Well, was doing the farming run, was about to drop the wood inside the chest and got stuck in between to planks, super frustrated accidentally removed a plank from the ship, guess what, because I was stuck couldn't repair it and another schooner sunk. And this is just the adventure regarding ships, there is plenty more in those 200 hours, like being stuck in pretty much every single asset in this game, stuck on doors, stuck on gates, stuck inside animals, stuck on ladders, stuck on ships, stuck between trees, being attacked for alphas because (horses, rabbits for example) walk against you, get upset, and kill you, animals stuck on ships, like yesterday took us almost 15 minutes to get rid of our elephant stuck on one of our schooners the list goes on and on. Please don't be a fan boy and don't come here saying "Oh its in alpha/beta, blah blah blah" that's shit, the game is broken, the most fundamental stuff doesn't work. I bought this game because it has potential, IT DOES, but not the way the dev team does stuff. Instead of fixing the game's core, and by that I mean for example collisions, they are worried about stone walls, krakens and shit when 70% of the player base can't even do the first power stone due the ridiculous amount of animals on the islands. I am not one to criticise without trying to help so there is a list of things you should consider fixing before changing "Stone Walls" - Make the power stone islands hard but challenging a) Reduce the amount of creatures | b) Lower their levels c) get rid of that BS (creatures) all together and incorporate the treasure hunting into that. Like find a set of keys to open the door for hydra and the hydra will give you the power stone itself. - Sort out the cluster fuck the FoY / Power Stone island is a) fast decay on anchored ships for example would prevent people from leaving the ships there, causing a massive lag and frame drops to others who are trying to reach the FoY / PS - Sort out the claiming situation, because it is absolutely atrocious. a 15*15 grid = 255 Sectors * 4 Islands each sector = 900 Islands to claim (I know this number isn't real because you have free ports, lawless zones, PS islands and sectors with less than 4 islands) How are you going to have space even for 5K players? - Food / Drinks / Vitamins Mechanics a) get rid of it because everyone rather die than care about the broken mechanics. b) find a way to make it worthwhile to care about, for example giving small boosts of speed, damage or whatever when you have the vitamins at certain levels or whatever. - Alphas, completely useless. The game does not need alphas period. Last but not least, make your devs play the game, because most of this stuff would be fixed already if you guys played your own game for a couple hours. I would like to say it was a good experience and I/we (my company) will be back, but it wasn't and not sure if we will come back, things need to change a lot and the dev team needs to start working on meaningful stuff alongside balancing whats already in game.

After that and after what I am about to say, I am done with you. Typical fan boy. I am going to put it as plain and simple as I can so your mind can understand the problem. A novice player can build a galleon and sail it alone if he wants to, it is a SANDBOX game where you can do "pretty much what you want within the game's mechanics", but when that NOVICE player dies for some reason, he expects to be ABLE TO SPAWN back on the boat not outside. I'll make it a bit easier for you to understand, you build a base and you build a bed inside of it, if you die and click re-spawn you expect to be inside the base not on the outside. AM I RIGHT? The problem ins't good/bad Captains novice/expert players. Yes the game has bugs, and most of us that bought the game knew and accepted upon purchase, the problem is like I mention before is the dev team wasting time on useless stuff instead of fixing fundamentals. Best Regards.

I should have expected this This game has a lot of alphas in game and outside of it that cant even grasp that the game's core is broken, specially the collisions. I didn't buy a finished game I am fully aware of that, but I thought I could at least play it and enjoy it, not gonna lie, it was fun on the first 20 hours. After that was just frustration. I don't want to argue with kids, but just to make it clear to everyone I'll answer your "questions". 1 - Who are you to say I can't/shouldn't build a galleon? It is a sandbox so everyone does whatever they feel like and second losing something because you don't know what you are doing it is completely different than losing something due to a fundamental thing in the game not working properly. the SPAWN. One more thing, dumb locations? If I can't put something somewhere add a radius to prevent players to put things in "dumb locations". 2 - the chest was near the shore to be precise near shipyards with couple of sand banks around that's why I could use the anchor, don't ask me how/why it was there but it was, tried to get it that happened. 3 - Yes I am putting planks in dumb locations because when you build a boat you can put planks everywhere. I am not talking about roofs/ceiling/walls, I am talking about the plank that form the boat. If it din't happen to you great, lets hope that never happens because it sucks. 4 - Asian? WOAH, so you are blaming people for playing the game. Okey. Enjoy the game. You are happy, that's what matters in the end of the day, just look at the stats for the game, online players, number of hours played etc, and you can see that this game is GROWING! Must be because it's going in the right direction. Best Regards.
