No but puckle guns, swivels with grapeshot, canons and NPC's do. Try to troll our ships all you like.  

This guys is 100% correct... you ppl crying otherwise need to learn the mechanics better.

Like NPCs or walls are stopping anyone.

Hell yeah they do. If you think otherwise you're not doing it right...

Z

You use walls and NPC's... it's not tough to do. If you can build a ship, you can build defenses. If you leave your ship sitting on the beach unguarded then hell yea, it's going down.

Z

The fear is letting someone else build on your island and have multiple beds then one day having them crush you and take it when you're not ready.

Z

Use whatever tab it is that makes you scream extra loud too, it sucks up stamina pretty fast.

Z

It's not perfect, but 30 NPC pirates on cannons and guns and 50 pet lions, bears and rhinos roaming around help... they don't get kicked when this happens.

Z

Yeah... treasure hunts were nerfed to crap the last 3 patches, so if you're saying maps are good exp you're either talking about ones you did 3 weeks ago (they USED to be good) or you're level 15.  We did 12 a few days ago and I got around 25% of a level total.

And Alphas are the same way now... at level 45+ you get around 5% of a level killing an Alpha solo.

That's why I started the thread, to see if anyone's found anything that works NOW. From what can tell, killing 50-70 Yeti, lions, wolves will get around half a level... the best I can find for exp right now at higher lev.

Z

We did 7 maps last week and got 2 levels. Was this long before the nerfs?
 

Z

They have been banning now... but they need real solid proof.

Z

The game is fun as hell... after a few years of no decent MMO's, this one's great. It's been a long time since I've had my adrenalin pump like this.

z

It's random... we've sailed for an hour and not seen one, then seen 5 at once. They're not too hard to avoid, but sometimes you need to fight one, and take the spoils.

Z

We killed 80-100 Yeti last night (I'm kind of guessing but it's close) and I got half a level.

Do you need to kill whales now for decent exp?

Z

See -

You must have been close to death from starving or something too... and if you have a bucket you can put the fire out.

Kind of wish NPCs could use carbines, could put a perch overlooking ports for ship defence

We have exactly this... not with carbines, but cannons, pukle guns and more.  We've thwarted every attack on our base with them.

Z

Playing vs cheaters is another story... but it's not too hard to defend against people playing legit. Yeah you're going to lose stuff, but you can fight fire with fire and do the same things in retal.

The cheaters in this game are going to put it under. We killed an enemy brig last week... they DDOS'd the server and crashed it, so the 5 minute rollback saved it.

Z

THis is cool but there are guilds with large presences not included.

Z

You must be cheating too then, defending cheaters when there are HUNDREDS of posts about them cheating.

:ignore:

Z

Where? All over the forums.

Z

They've been video'd speed hacking, duping, spawning items, carrying thousands of pounds without slowing down, teleporting, killing ppl in one shot through buildings... of COURSE they're cheating! (have you not read the other threads?)

currently lv 99 on a private server will only unlock 70% of the skill tree at most so these changes unless they are big arent going to unlock the whole tree 

That sucks. At max level around 25% should be the very MOST anyone can unlock. Why not make this PubG on boats?

Z

Join a new game and pick the map your char is on. Click anywhere and join.

Z

Maps were just nerfed HARD. At level 41 you get about 10% of a level from a medium ranked map... don't be a baby, learn to kite and kill the alphas.

It’s not common to not allow people to just join other servers. Sure they can make an oceanic server which they probably will. That won’t do anything though. What an idiot

What a moron this guy is, lol. First he says there would be a discrimination lawsuit if they made the Chinese play on their own server, then the above. LOL!

It's one thing if they play fairly and win.... some guilds are just great at pvp... but these chinamen are cheaters and hacks, and that is sad and ruining the game for some.\

Z

Is this how all people play in China? WTF.
