Forb Hidden

Would be nice, but I'm sure Iso selled the map as seen without any warranty.

Why a spyglass? And if I run to a spot and stop there they glich in. I'm sure it's a issue where a dev only have to change one number in the script (let them stop 5m earlier or force them to not enter your "hitbox". But for sure they will never adress this.

Why you think you can speak for all the PC and Xbob players? For me it's not a big deal to play with Xbobs, as long as the performance and grafics not get discrased.

While playing on the official servers I remember that I started to open the gunports and enabled free fire for all cannons before crossing the borders.

The post about "imagine" was peppered with ironic. Why is not a question for me. I would wipe out all because of fairness for everyone who plays on the same server. And was you playing before wipe? Do you remember the three weeks before? It was terrible. Such amount of shitstorm I never seen before.

Imagine the devs telled the truth and they're really about to figure out any way to launch the xbob stuff without a wipe?

It's more a question about how to wipe and how to announce it. If you announce a wipe in three days and after three weeks it finally happens. Worst of all was the x6 event till wipe. This behavior was the salt in the soup, not the wipe himself.

No I think a wipe will be needed when crossplay comes out. These who wine about are people who still don't realized what it means to play a EA game. And we can be happy that there was only one wipe. And to all the PC players: you know how to start and what is important. All the new xbobs have to figure it out. Until they know how to build up a ramshackle, you get your first island claimed.

Maybe changed exactly that behavior of GS with the new lead-designer. Give em a chance to prove, that they can do it better than in the past months. And don't think I don't agree with you. If they bring out crossplay, all the players should have the same chances. So a wipe makes for me the most sense.

True. But as a real realist I can say to you: stick to what's written down, take em by the words who were said and written. "reading between the lines" or "reading theyr body language" is not a fact and ends up in speculation, fake news and other confusings.

No one force you to claim anything. If you want to be a landlord with the tax benefits, then yeah. If not, you can easily find an island with more than enough space for your Disney castle.

I don't want to crush your entire world, but read again or listen again the last announcement or the "live"stream. This is the info they gave us about wiping. If you have other wishes for the game, then it's good to write these down here ONE time and not several times in nearly every thread.

Since release I noticed the problem while set tames on follow with "lowest" follow distance that they comes so close to me, that I'm stuck in there. Specially bears, Crewmates and sheeps (with a ridiculous hitbox) stuck you faster than it's good for you. Usually this is not a problem if you can mount up. But if u don't get a saddle on the bear, the party begins. Exactly what happened to me yesterday. After trying to crouch, lie down, grab the wheel (was on a ship), jumping around and other ideas, I had to crush the top deck. Just another bug/issue since release you have to take note and never solve.

same as I thinked. Farming doesen't takes long with tames. But to build up, try new options, figure out why these and that's not working as I wanted, paint it, fill up food, resources and goods, place npcs and at least: the name. Usually it takes as long as all the steps before until you get the right name. A brig is built in 3...5h (with farming). A galleon 5...8h for me.

There's another thread about that problem since last week. But you need to know: when it's a blackwood issue, the devs only (in the best case) write that they take note about... But nothing happens then. One week, two... One month, two... Nothing happened till now. And imo they will start cleaning up the blackwood-mess after the xbob launch and the allmighty roadmap is done.

That's the unlucky truth. If you have a old or slow PC, you get a lot of loading issues. When you cross the border, come close to a shore with buildings and harbours on and several ships. I know the 15...45s delay while crossing the borders. But I upgraded my hardware and now I need 3...5s until it's loaded and can ride with a horse thru sturmberg-city without a bigger lag. It's a new game, produced for actual hardware and upcoming. Playing it with a 3 yo PC is just a pain.

you never set a flag, so how do you know if it's a good or bad system? The system as it is now is pretty fine. As a landlord or as a settler you get nothing negative to deal with. The claiming system in the beginning was a mess. It was a huge invite to grief others. It was terrible.

Schöne seich... Afang Jahr hei si mau öppis gschribe, dass das isch gänderet worde und si nümme are gränze spawne.

I wrote it once and can repeat it here again: player shops in such a huge world will never work. As you said: hard to find and mostly empty. And who the hell is moving to the decay shipkilling freeport to check if there is a shop? They should act as an access to a auctionhouse, where you can buy resources from the other end of the map without sailing there and loose one or more days.

You can place lanterns on your own on which place you want. Problem one solved. Figureheads are there to give your ship the last touch, character. 400 gold for one is not expensive. Go out with a ship and a bear, go treasure hunting and dive down to the wrecks while sailing and after a evening you get so much gold, that u can buy a stack of them or one of each to try out. Absolutely not a problem, also for a solo player.

The sotd's don't spawn near the border for a long time now. BUT if you get chased by them, you can pull em to the border. Mostly they stay in theyr grid. If someone else cross the border there, he has a bunch of bad luck. What's missing since release is a way for the sotd's to get back in the area they spawned after chasing someone.

So where was the announcement of a wipe? Last time the devs talked about, they said they don't know for now, if there will be a wipe and they try several options for a no-wipe Xbox launch. Once again: where do you get your informations from?

Do you play on a difficulty of 1 or higher? (0.2 is preset)? That would explain why there are just high level sotd's. I battled yesterday a few sotd's. Instead of shooting me, they just drived around. I placed my brig 20m beside a lvl 19 galleon and shot em down on this way.

Yes, you can kill the whale. Takes forever... If you anchor your ship and drive with the sub to another grid, it consumes much more fuel there than in the grid with the ship. Didn't use a sub for a long time now but in the beginning it was like that.

No. For grilling meat or fish you don't need water. Only for dyes and some recipes. And I put the grill on only with wood in. It's just another bug of the never ending buglist.
