Greetings All,

I wanted to let you know that we are reading your feedback and we are in the process of making changes to the following:

1. Boat Control - you have to grant access to anyone to control your boat, they can not just take control.
2. Boat Access - you will be granting access to the cannons etc on your boat to the people you invite.
3. Sea Market Crowd Control - Since we are seeing such a traffic jam here we are assuming the same thing will happen on production shards, so we are putting in a 20 minute parking time, if you boat is still there after 20 minutes it will be teleported a short distance from the market.
4. Making the three boats unique. Below is a chart of how the different boats will be different.

Orc Boat

Cannons 7
Turn Delay 2
Drift Speed 1
Durability 100K
Cannon Damage 150%
Hold Size 14K stones

Gargoyle Boat

Cannons 7
Turn Delay 1
Drift Speed 1
Durability 140K
Cannon Damage 100%
Hold Size 12K stones

Tokuno Boat

Cannons 5
Turn Delay 3
Drift Speed 2
Durability 100K
Cannon Damage 100%
Hold Size 16K stones

Thank you everyone! And special thanks to everyone that helped with all the screenshots the other day!

Hey Crysta we thought about that but there are limitations right now on changing the number of weapon pads on the boats.

We did discuss it but for right now they weapon pad numbers are fixed.

Good to the ship/steering access changes. You didn't mention the hold, so that still needs to be addressed.

You need to add an open boarding option so we can move a mass of people easily. Having to grant access for each person during an event is going to be a pain in the ass...

Good for the sea market access change too, hopefully boats won't wind up stacking 'on top' of eachother.


You must make the fish stackable before launch. There is no logical reason they shouldn't. You know that we want EVERYTHING that can stack TO stack when released. (Since your retroactive stacking fixes are abysmal, do it now.)

That is my mistake, depending on the rank you are giving that will determine what you have access to including the hold. We are already addressing the option to just have "open house" on your ship if you desire so anyone can board.
