Had that before the wipe when placing a flag switched all stuff to yours. Even then the carts didnt.... Go to a taming pit filled with meanies, reverse the cart into the pit (it clips through walls etc), park another bear in there to tank and wait... takes forever, but it works. Cobras work best.

Agree! This is making the game almost unplayable for me, very, very sad! We have tons of tames and there is NO way that I will be able to touch every single one, all the time, everywhere. The last few days several have been claimed by someone cause I didn't know about this change. I've always gotten by just fine with feeding them and being in rendering range from them, have never ever had an animal claimed by someone by using "render in" method. And now suddenly, it seems like animals are "free for all", unless you touch every single animal. (Just imagine picking up and throwing down 20 chickens every day, not to mention all the giraffes, elephants, bears, cows, pigs, etc. This has to change very fast, this won't work for companies with multiple tames. Feeding animals and fast travelling to all bases is enough work.....     thanks if you guys can check this, devs, truly thanks, cause I don't wanna have to quite the game over this sudden massive new work load...    thanks again for checking this.    @Jatheish

This problem only concerns the tames on ships. The ones on land are reset fine when rendered. Just take them off your ships (at least every 7 days) until its fixed. They are aware and looking into it.

 In regards to being able to kick players off your boat, we'll be allowing folks to eject everyone from their boat via the boat's pinwheel in an upcoming update.

Thanks, i was sure i read that in the patch notes at some point, but couldn't find it anywhere in-game. So im not blind

If you are a bit creative this opens the door again for some very interesting ways to annoy your fellow players. It is probably important for a lot of PvE players to be bale to have other people on your ship (would also help with the playerbase problem, Kraken etc) or i guess for roleplaying purposes. But we need more control than just "kicking" players of with a menu option.

This is true, moving tames on to land and back to the ship currently fixes the issue, until the timer hits 7 days again.

As for NPC, does giving it a job actually refresh the timer, so you don't have to move it to land?

It seems to be enough to assign them to a job, didn't have time for further testing, but i guess putting them on a chair will also do the trick. So far i made sure none of them are on deck.

Eu PVE D4 Hermisea Island.

 

I know for a fact that some of the animals that was stolen have been picked up within 2-3 days by myself and all of them was within render range. They where all on my ship.

Other animals i have on my ship was not stolen like giraffe, elephant and bears.

2 of the birds stolen was inside a locked cage.

If you didn't take them off the ship it didnt reset the timer. We tested it, render range doesn't do anything on ships, it only resets if you take them off the ship and back. The birds prolly clipped through the cage and were below.

Same goes for crew that currenlty doesnt have a "job".. You can claim the ones that spent some time sweeping the decks...

Extra fun now that you can board all ships again in PvE.

This info is partially wrong.  Fleas were the reason why bubonic plague spread out. Rats get a bad rep as a carrier of fleas but many other animals had them. Although they only singled out the rats. Because people are afraid of them. Thanks for perpetuating the trope that mice and rats are disgusting, disease ridden and gross rodents.
The many generation bred domesticated rats and mouse now make exceptionally smart and lovable pets. 

They have Mantas who attack and kill people. Biology isn't their strong suit.

The fact that it doesn't create ice if not rendered alone makes it a joke.

I can tell you what it probably wont be. They wont fix their abysmal buggy "endgame content", they wont fix the bugs that ruin the game and make it pretty much unplayable. 

We probably will get new skins and tames, content gated behind the unfixed "endgame content" and maybe some buggy new op tech crap no one asked for.

EA or not, they should try to sort the Kraken/Powerstones before they keep adding new "content". But i guess its a lot less of an annoyance if you use the console for everything and dont really play the game anyway.  

Another rather useless addition this game didnt need. Would have made more sense to have it as a passive collector while sailing (you know, like these nets actually work). Makes you wonder if the developers ever looked up how any of those things are supposed to work. Then again, they made Mantas vicious beasts.

I guess they are either considering to rework them or worried about the Server strain...

What about your constant harassment?

 They already know I am not a troll. I know it makes your excuse to get rid of me easier to say that I am one. That doesn’t make me one.

I have seen others on here say way worse things than I ever would. You included. Don’t attempt to even come close to being an innocent part here.

Describing your "episodes" isn't possible while staying within the rules of the forum code of conduct.

i have come to the realization that it might not actually be the devs(even though they have been making mistakes) that are the problem but the “players” which should be testers.

you guys are useless as far as the development process goes. You ridicule anyone that has any problem or issue with the game. You guys are the reason we will soon be at ore wipe numbers and that is very soon.

 

I have seen EA been misinterpreted a lot on these forums, but this one takes the cake. It definitely isn't a platform for whines of someone who might at some point maybe buy the game. If testing is our "job" according to you... buy the game or get out of this forum.

Lets hope i wont be launched into space this time

Dont give them ideas or we might end up with random keystroke minigames to keep the sails up. Want to anker? Random minigame..

Make sure you dont have any salt in the bags, you cant combine ice and salt, the salt will just perserve the ice and the ice wont do anything

I did that, thanks  Still had that weird bug

Is there a bug with the ice acting like salt?  Mentioned above, and then ignored.

So far i had ice act like salt, act like nothing was in, and only in one case it actually worked as intended.. but only on some of the food in the bag...

Thanks to all that participated in taking down the kraken 1.0. everyone did a great job during the fight and before the fight even tho we meet some hick up before the fight with people spawning in the 2.0 kraken. i appriciate all you guys who backed out of the fight for reset and for being patient and waiting. i know some of you did not get to participate due to death and starvation and stuff like that. so i would like do this another day aswell to help the guys who diden't make it this time. 

i will post in the forum and discords when i do the kraken again and hope to see many of you who diden't get it this time. 

so hope too see  many of you next time aswell and again great job everyone 

 

see you around and happy sailing

Thanks for organizing it  Sadly i got kicked and clipped out of the boat at the start (and shot into the sky), so i didnt get it. Id be happy to join in on the next one, ill keep an eye on the forum.

It makes your company look like you belong to the "one man in mum's basement" category. It gives off a very unprofessional picture.

There was no "Mega" update yet, only on the PTR. How innocent of you to actually believe it would hit may

We would love to join in an bring a Galleon and a Brigg

Put them half a wall higher and they will work. You wont be able to save them sadly.

Less Cosmetics More Actual Armour types. 

And less tames but more ship types. Instead of freaking torpedos.

There is a big difference between wipes that are needed (corrupt data, bugs etc) or just bad, unorganized development of a rushed game. If they would wipe every 2-3 months when they finally caught up with the island models and get ridd of the copy n paste part we have now, that would be a different story. And so far i expect them to do that.
