  1. This happened twice now but last time cost my Brig and Crew, which I spent much time building and leveling. Playing single player, FYI. My Brig was being chased by a Fire Elemental. First time encountering this creature. I didn't know they travelled over water or I wouldn't have fired on it. So the chase was on, but we were holding our own, I had aft cannons blasting away at it while hoping the wind picked up cause we couldn't seem to out run it. For a moment I thought we were going to win as the Elemental''s health was in the red and our ship hadn't even sprung a leak. Then disaster struck...would you believe it? A bloody Mermaid shows up and I am dragged off my ship and tossed into the sea. The Elemental kills me of couse, then the bug part. The game seems to struggle and then when it finally comes back and I can choose to respawn on my ship is way far from where it was. When I do respawn I'm at one of my camps. The action list says "ship removed"and "bed removed". It didn't say ship destroyed, I know what that looks like. I've died in the water before and have gone back to the bed on the ship, no issue. I don't believe my ship was that close to death that I couldn't have respawned back on it, like I said the ship wasn't even leaking and I had leveled her up. This is a significant bug for us that take the time to build a ship and trick it out.
  2. I had a similar incident. I died near my ship, I was investigating an island. But instead of respawning back in my bed on my ship, it got stuck and then it put me in a bed two grids away. I looked on the Company Messages and it said "ship removed" and "bed removed," as the last action. i was angry to say the least as I had just dug up 2000 coins in treasure which was on a chest on that ship. I was at a Freeport so I quickly put a Sloop together and in an insane race against the clock made sail back to the island, hoping the chest was there. The wind was with me and i sighed with relief when I saw the dead body marker. I also saw the ladder to my old ship standing up in the water with my crew bobbing in the water around it. The chest and coin were gone but I was able to recover my stuff from my corpse. Lesson one, the ship bed is unreliable so any time I stop on an island I'm making a bed immediately (and naming it). Lesson two, make a chest on land and place your gold in it. Don't keep valuables on the ship if you can help it. Also, I am going to try naming the bed as the thought occurred that the system was confused as my ship bed just said "bed" and then it put me in another bed named "bed" As for the ship, if its a bug and it seems so, I hope they fix it cause if I loose my new Schooner I will be real mad. I did wonder if the ship was destroyed by locals, but that seems unlikely since the messages suggest the game removed my ship. Atlas owes me 2000 coins.
  3. Ever play Elite Dangerous? Great game but lots of "flying." Sailing and having encounters on the sea is part of the fun. "It's the journey, not the destination...yada yada." As the game develops there might be more to do while sailing. .
