I suspect that it is going to be costly to set up some sort of "Gestapo" to monitor and regulate speech which is why there is such a push back against any sort social engineering in a public setting. The easiest solution is to vote with your wallet and drive on.

It is my understanding that the number of mast and the rig set up determines the type of ship. Cutters, sloops, and cat boats are single mast ships. A cutter is a single mast with two or more head sails and a gaff rig. The same can perhaps be applied to the brig and brigantine. Head sails and for and aft rig set ups are completely absent from the game among other things. A little research into the age of sail can provide inspiration to the developers.

I have seen that. I played mmo’s going all the way back to Asheron’s call and this game blows me away with its bad design in so far as a mmo is concerned. The game will require a complete restructuring.

This game rewards impulsive behavior and offline raiding is considered PVP to some. The time spent building defense far exceeds the time it takes to nullify it.

Indeed. Although I prefer lions grabbing because they don’t zig zag around and it’s quite easy to hit a non moving target. Assuming the ambitions of this game does not exceed the technology, there is also a cost of discrimination in so far as a bias favoring the hard core player archetypes or any other style of play. I suspect a lot of things may be dumbed downed at some point to widen the spectrum of the player base considering there is a cost associated with the development of the game and among other things which is perhaps the crux of the matter. The trick is to design and implement content in the game that can satisfy the most amount of people possible without compromising the vision of this game.

Yetis take more head shots and you can out run them if I can recall correctly. You can’t out run wolves. One wolf is bad. A pack of them is an abysmal. I seen three wolves take out an alpha horse before the wolf nerf. They still clip into you and so fist might be the only option that I’m aware of. In the past, they were taking head shots from pistols and bows. Essentially, two head shots and a body shot would be enough to take out a wolf with a pistol. The level of the wolf may add some variability to how tough they are.

There is no justification in a roleback on wolves other then as far as I can tell to cause mayhem. Wolves were able to withstand multiple headshots and take most people out with a few hits with a quickness. As of right now there is some measure of peace when gathering resources.

I’m hopeing that a reduction in spawn frequency and land animal count would free up resources for the server and client.

This isn't all of them. There are more not far away.
