Would diminishing returns solve this on bed use? So each boat is limited to number of beds. So perhaps there's a 15 minute cooldown from when a bed is placed before it can be used.. and, when a bed is used, the timer multiplies by 50%. If an enemy attacks they have an increasing period of time to wait before being able to bedspawn, and, an enemy can't just exploit new beds because of the 15 min timer.. eventually one side or the other, is going to run out of bed spawning timers..... so the 50 guys running about naked are going to find themselves bitch-slapped by 3 / 4 / 5 minute respawn timers on their beds, so it's in their best interest not to die... so they won't just run about naked to get one shot by snipers with carbines... This would give the advantage to the defenders anyway, as they could have so many effective beds that they're not encumbered as much by diminishing returns on bed timers.... Attackers have to come prepared, intel at a high, know their target, and use bed spawns sparingly, which means no daft suicide runs, which pointlessly increases timers on beds each time. Naked combat is the daft aspect for me... I can't remember the vikings attacking the english naked !

An interesting way to put it! Somehow makes sense, even though I'm like: +1, quote of the day Can't you just take out naked guys with carbines from long distance? Thought without armour mitigation, that a naked dude is just carbine food......

call me a bit dumb, but if blackjacks are the counter for dudes on tames (dismounting), then should the focus for the guys on tames be to take out the dudes with blackjacks first? Sounds to me like a great circle of strategy is needed. Tames > people Blackjacks > tames People > blackjacks There's a whole load of rock / paper / scissors going on here, isn't it easier to intel your enemy, and if all they have is rocks, then don't send in all your scissors!? Maybe I'm being too simple... who knows.

Would like to see a Clipper, always wanted my own Cutty Sark Cant see *&@$ for sails! Fast boat! Then I would like to see a -ship of the line- / 'first rate' as a proper house boat. End game house boat. Scrap the cannons, plenty of windows for guests.

Screenshot? Helpful to see this triple gun thing, and to know what company it belongs to. Thanks!

Damn we really could do with a crab to, but are gold poor Do you guys do 0% finance over, say 18 months?

What would be absolutely fantastic is a 'treasure map helper'. Since maps seem to be quite regular in their spots, i.e we always see treasure in the same area on our map.. It would be great to enter K8, and all known treasure locations are shown on each island, sometimes locating an island with a snippet of coastline is sometimes a pita, but also to know if the treasure location is way up in hills is also great intel. It's a big ask, but what I have seen so far on the site is awesome, i'll definitely be one of your fans. Cheers

How absolutely awesome. I'll be sure to give it a test.

Mining picks are so last quarter. Use a rhino!! lol

Well, we soon realised that maps on the edge of cliffs have a simple work through. Start the encounter, run towards the edge of the cliff, use a climbing pick and watch as the entire congregation with maces throw themselves off. Only archers remain... archers that any old clump can hack with a spear... so as the mainstay throw themselves off the cliff, you have a bunch of bears waiting for them at the bottom, it's mop up city down there, and hammer time at the top. Done. Dig up treasure, profit Bears can still do yer dirty work, and you get the treasure to. You just wait though... We are finding more and more treasures within the perimeter of someones base. Impossible to get your tames in, which is freaking annoying, and, there is no work around. No idea why players box off so much land, and, box off a treasure point. One dude, had deliberately built a house over the beacon. Everything spawned INSIDE, and frustratingly impossible.... impossible for reasons not bug related, but human douchery.

Yep! Perhaps more land, and also, revisit a flag system in lawless to prevent foundation spamming. Having said that, it's a winning concept for sure

What needs to happen is that anything that makes the game a 'pile of defecation' goes into the feedback section. This is very much still Early Release, and, the game is evolving, and adapting. The game will take time, and effort on multiple fronts to accommodate everyone who plays, there will always be something missing, and there will always be something for everyone. My advice would be to help the devs and the team, rather than lift up an arse-cheek and fart insults at their hard work and creativity I should imagine that they have nicely thickened skin by now, and let sniping pass over, but still, I always say row with the river, than try to battle against it, unless you really need to for some reason

Then don't get started on breeding

Who says sailing is dull? Tonight, got swallowed by a SOTD, got stuck in its belly, couldn't escape. Had to hack it from within ...... with a hatchet... Got loot though!

for me the 3x over a UK public holiday is a stroke of genius. Cudos GS

The only time I have issues is if the map is 'buried' upon a giant solid rock face. a) how do you bury a treasure chest in solid granite, and b) the undead to tend to phase into the rock upon activation, so you do end up with 2 or 3 that are unreachable permanently. Never have this issue on flat ground, though.

maybe in your eyes, but the victim of the racist 'attack' is well within their rights to be valiantly protected by the developers of this 'game' / 'hobby'. hence a whole plethora of rules in the ToC / CoC. Sorry I breached the CoC because, this is just a 'hobby'... would never stand up to scrutiny

I believe cheaper crew works when you're on board.... may be wrong, but, it seems most prudently explainable, like you have some kind of aura

When I go out, or do something, bad press means the company I work for acquire that bad press. I work for an investment bank, so if, I, at the weekend go and shoot someone, or go ahead and abuse someone, my actions will reflect badly on the firm I work for. They will fire me immediately, and 'play ball' and the PR team will have their work cut out. Communally, anyone in your corp is representing every member of your corp. If you have a bunch of racists, and griefers and everyone turns a blind eye, you're all guilty by association. No excuses. Zero tolerance policy protects all. Immediately evict company members breaching T&C and CoC and you'll be fine...

CBOATH, it's like saying the man that got stabbed outside a nightclub 87 times, flung himself repeatedly at someone trying to eat a 12oz steak, and impaled himself continuously on the steak knife.... Sometimes, you just have to side with logic

they're blocking passage across the land, and used excessively to prevent people to run treasure maps there. My biggest complaint is how unnecessary it all is. It's raw spam, and it's probably the ugliest attempt at using structures against their intended purpose to do something equally pointless!

True, however, if you can black list specific player names as well as company ID's, then the only way they'd be able to circumvent that would be to delete / roll a new character, which would leave their existing spam vulnerable to the bulldozers after a set number of days. Either they have to roll a new company to get around the black list, or roll a new character.. Either way it's a pain in the ass and, they lose

Inclined to agree - experiment. Have 2 boxes next to each other, put same resource in each, and see what pops the next time you have this glitch. Who else is in your company? Could you be the target of a troll? Never has this happened to me, and I have spent plenty of time on a boat, and on land. That's another question, have you logged out on a boat? When you do, your char stays at the same coords, and the boat moves. You'll find yourself wherever you logged. As for being nekkid, it used to be possible for me to find a sleeping company mate, take all his stuff, and 'drag body' on to a boat and dump him out to sea. Ofc I'd never do that, but it used to be possible. Can't remember what happens now when you log. There are a number of possible things going on here. My company mates know that if they move my boat, i'll be on it, and if I log in to find myself in the middle of water, then one of them is going to get a left hook irl the next time we have beers Health and safety rule #1, do not touch Vorxius's boat.. ever... ever ever.. NEVER.. because he will get the hump in real life, and come after everyone lol. Bless my dearest friends

Come to think of it, there was a spat of rubber banding going on, didn't recall any specific game freeze though.. Prior to the whole 'Michael Flatley' thing, I had left the boat on auto pilot... well, stepped away from the wheel, leaving it to its own devices... I realised one of my bears was on deck, so I was trying to move it to the lower deck (we have a ramp down). Anyway, as I was running down the ramp, I kept banding to exactly the same spot on the deck where the bear was originally. Happened 4 or 5 times, before I put it on close follow, and led it down the ramp.. didn't think anything more of it. By this time I was closing on the NW island of M10, jumped on the wheel, and headed towards land, immediately on turning, i noticed a 'bump' and suddenly damage numbers started to bubble up like a mento's in a coke bottle. The rest came swiftly after. The odd thing was that I was out to sea, i was in 'lighter' blue waters on the sextant buff minimap, as i was inbound, but the whole thing freaked me up so badly that I'm quite paranoid about it now I have a sneaking feeling I may have scraped some shallow rocks, but, that would explain the 'bump', but the machine gun damage, something else was happening at this point. I think the whole game had no idea where to place my ship, and the whole thing flipped out.... utterly flipped out.

What happens if you set it to enable wandering? Then leave the area, bed out to another zone, leave it 10 minutes and zone back?
