    Very poor reference here.  WoW used to and still does lock all it's best gear and Legendaries behind boundaries that require larger raid GROUPS and a higher time investment, none of it's best gear is accessible to a small group of players.  It's actually worse then what it was, WoW had MORE players back when raids used to require more coordinated and organized groups before the LFR system.  Either way NONE of the best gear or content in WoW is solo/small group based.

    The sub is NOT required for you to do anything, therefore it does not need to be opened up to every player automatically.

    wrong , crab taming , ,whale hunting , exploring , salvaging wrecks  it makes life easier so why would it be excluded from solo players ? do they not deserve to have the same experience in the game as so called megas  ,  to lock all of this behind a boss kill is quite frankly poor design , as uli has written what's next the new advertised dungeon only available and doable for large groups?

    the more content they release that  exludes solo / small groups from the less their player base will grow , my betting is the dungeons they have announced wont be doable by small groups , they seem intent on designing everything for large groups despite posting that they are working towards making the small comapny solo experience better . 

    there poor game design shows through when solo / small companys are just leeching the kraken kill by being in the zone , they want the sub and at the moment its the only way to get it if as uli has posted there social skill are lacking ,

    i have to agree with one of the points u raised about a lot of solo / small companies are just sailing to the barrier and waiting for the kill , this isn't good gameplay if solo / small companies are doing this to unlock the sub ,   i myself could have gotten it this way over the weekend if the game wasn't crashing a lot since the last patch ,

    so i do agree remove sub unlock from kraken and place it somewhere else ? maybe X amount of sotd kills for skill to unlock  , have the skill as a drop from the sotd , this would A give solo players a chance to get it and B add another reason to go hunting sotd ..which to me is a win for the devs and win for solo / small groups .

    It´s not "a bit more" man 🙂 We for instance pay 1300g/day which is over 9k gold per week. Brig full of crew costs about 220-250g/day. That means owner needs to farm "a bit more" which is like he has 5 full crewed brigs. 

    Im not saying its hard, but its definitely harder and more time consuming than farming 30% more because of tax 😉 Stop pretending island owner doesn´t have to do anything and "poor" settlers has to pay. Its nonsense. 

    a couple of extra whales, come on dont be so ridiculous u wanted the island stop trying to make out that u have to do so much more , companys of more than 1 player can easily go out on a boat each and farm out that amount in a couple of hours , on top of this there is no benefit whatsoever for tenants,if u have them they are farming for you via the resources that get deposited so free ships for you if u have enough tenants farming , not to mention the more tenants the less you pay per 12hrs and more resources you get , 

     

    there is absolutly no benefits for tenants at all in pve with this system ,

    It is in the fact all the old sites info on resources are now wrong. I know I am one of the people who wrote a spreadsheet marking all the resource spawns on over half the world before the wipe.

    Exploration is part of the game so your whole statement is bullshit. on top of that the map changed new island and resources are all mixed up again. 

    Finding the islands you have explored are now broken as well so its worse finding out what you did or didnt do 

     

    the islands are the same grids are exactly as they were before the wipe only difference is they are in slightly different positions to accommodate the new islands, the resources are still the same m using a custom map i made with resources marked and i'm still going to the islands and getting exactly what i did before , stop spouting falsehoods

    Seriously guys eating and drinking should be a realistic add to the game not the basis for the whole game,I went from one island to the next today in the same grid and went from full to empty by the time i got there,if we got bigger by food we'd be floating like balloons and wouldn't need an airship.You honestly need to slow down the water and food consumption as its not adding to the realism just taking away the enjoyment.And a heatwave every few minutes!!???Wth.thx

    rubbish , i traveled across over 8 grids yesterday the only thing that reduced was the vitamins albeit very very very slowly ,, if u have the right skills in your ships that slow down the rates of food / vitamin decay it

    u never lost all the food in less than one grid of travel ..... dont exaggerate .

    You had to acquire those maps somewhere which takes time, you had to sail on that grid which takes time and you had to kill it/dig it. No, u didn't do all of this in 1 hour.

    U didn't answer me yet, what does settler need to do? 

    same as landowner farm gold for crew upkeep ,same as landowners , the only difference is island owners  need a bit more than non island owners  do , when i say a bit i mean that

     

    , it isnt hard  , so stop trying to make out that landowners are hard done by , they wanted the land they wanted to own the island so suck it up buttercup and farm the extra gold landowners  need , non island owners farm maps, island owners farm map and need  at best to farm an additional 2 or 3 maps  for the weeks upkeep or go kill and extra  whale or 2 ,

    Can we please stop with the tames. Make more boats in your ocean game. 

     

     

    i have to agree , devs can we get more ship stuff and stop with the tames , a water tame that gives water and a swimming thing , really? u could have given us a  mini sub oh wait its locked behind kraken so u give us poor mans diving tame ?..we dont want more tame we want more ships related things or is it too much work ? 

     

    as it is u broke the wild animals i havnt needed an offensive weapon when out and and about at all since u nerfed the crap out of everything , i dont even carry a bow , ....then u go add more animals that take up even more spawn slots , are u trying to make your own version  of hello kitty island ?

    Ye and what is nonowner day routine on PvE? "Oh do I have to login daily and farm gold for maintaining island? Oh no, I dont have to". Owner HAS to pay upkeep every day to keep Settlement, nonowner = settler doesn´t have to do anything. He does not pay upkeep and he does not pay true taxes because they are additive (on PvE) which means he harvests 100%. So tell me who has the better position here?

    On PvP ok, taxes are a thing. But jesus stop pretending owner doesn´t have to pay anything. Farming gold takes much more time than harvesting 30% more resources. Lets take an example - you farm for 3 hours. Because of taxes you need to sacrifice 30% more time which means approximately 1 hour more. Because of taxes you need to spend 1 hour farming for your owner and 3 hours farming for yourself. Now, imagine my company pays nearly 1300g/day for upkeep 86 points Settlement. Do you think you can farm 1300g in an hour? Count going with a ship from harbor, travel on map locations, get loot, get back. Let me answer this question - you can´t.

    Owner has to spent much more time farming gold for upkeep than you spend farming with 30% taxes (on PvP). 

    Take your time to understand this and maybe you stop acting like owners don´t need to do anything. 

    yeah such a hard life in game , gold is far too easy to farm , using that argument when it takes a couple hours treasure maps to get a weeks upkeep ,  stop trying to make out its hard to own an island it isnt .....

     

    answering your question yes i can and did yesterday 1567 gold in 1 hour 3 maps all in same grid 2 on same island , i actually spent  a lot of time yesterday using the maps i had to gain gold and landing on the islands i hadnt visited got me discovery points , i bought 4 figure heads , 12 crew to add to my 2nd brig  , 1st already being fully crewed and armed  (which need gold to maintain ) and still had over 3000 gold left after a morning farming maps and running about

    there was a poll for the claim system guess what , the devs say we the players help shape the game , guess what even though like this poll the majority  was against it they still went ahead and changed it , they will also add the torpedos despite the a majority vote against them , they dont care what the players want and we are in no way helping shape this game ,

    You clearly don´t know what you are talking about. At all 😉 Get better in game, maybe then you will know what Settlement owner has to do in order to keep Settlement. Until then - stop embarassing yourself 🙂 

    hahaha island owners routine to keep island =  do treasure maps --- > get gold ----> put gold in flag , thats it , nothing more nothing less ,

    ok thanks for reply..  i put build company only. so they cant build anymore ?

    anyone can build anytime , the system was changed to stop behavior like yours ,stopping others from building where they want too , 

    as islnd owner you will need to keep the island free from pillar and foundation spam etc you have 25hrs only after that the constructions cannot be removed 

    additionally , the more settlers you have the cheaper the upkeep cost is

    because it has been there longer than 24hrs already , once something has been built for 24hrs it cannot be removed , even if the island changes hands 

    if the timer is refreshing then the owner of the building is active and playing 

    why would u want to remove them ? they were there before you ? they are entitled to build and play the game as much as you are

    I've met quite a few of them and they seem pretty nice.

    You could also put a sign by it asking if they will move it and I'm sure they will. 

    foundations block building in a radius around it the sign would be too far away

    I am of the opinion that FoW was removed on the maps due to performance issues.  Frame rates would tank when map was brought up.  That does not happen now.  Possible its just a coincidence, but the timing is perfect. 

    not really , never had this happen to me  ever , it was removed due to the new claim system nothing more nothing less , it needs to come back ,discovery system is a joke with out the fog of war , 

    have a discovery system and now way of knowing what we have or have not visited .

    if u have performance issues play the game on a pc that has higher than minimum specs , too many players think because they meet the minimum they can run it at max setting with 60 fps , reality check not gonna happen , s

    there have been numerous threads about the map fog of war , why it was removed is beyond belief , they have a discovery system that we now have now way excpet making our own maps of mapping where we have and havnt been 

     

    please devs you post about us the players helping shape the game then let us help you ,turn the map fog of war back on

    elephants are broken but still pretty easy to tame, we have around 15 of them lvl 40+ atm. just gotta go between the legs, and inch back, use health packs if you get hit too much.

    adding to this wearing plate armour and using a shield also stops u taking too much damage

    yes I know, you are two players company. We looks like have 1 person more than you. However, most time we only 1 person online. So two ships is impossible. Do you try to hunt SODs only by one person?

    yes i do , rear cannons on brig, kite them not too far away destroy and collect loot ,

    if going for high lvl i.e lvl 50 , organise it so that u take 2 ships or as u rightly say a lot of the chests will despawn before u finish the job , , solo is not going to get you very far with higher lvl sotd fleets (post on these forums about players using upwards of 400 cannon balls and still not destroying the lvl 50's), always try to make sure you have addiitonal ships or players to grab the loot as the ships are destroyed.

    yes its harder now but that adds to the pve challenge ,
