New Companies

WarmakerWarmaker Posts: 2Member Beginner
Didnt look for this title in all the posts, so idk if its a repeat.

With so many players not returning i hope you are all not planning the same amount of Companies in the game. when we last played there was probly 80 companies per 100 actual players in game, (not counting alts)
i know everyone thinks they should be in charge, but ........i wont be restarting Atlantic shipping, dont know if anyone else will, i doubt it. Maybe we could talk about recruiting for new Companies. instead of all the negative posts we have going now.

    CatchXXII will return to Lisbon, I don't know if Lug or I will stay for long, but we will be back for our core players that return, even if we hand the reins over to one of them.

    Not going to speak all the way for Netero, but as a Dutch Courage deputy, it is looking like DC will not be back as it was. Last I heard, both of us were leaning toward being done. Have not heard from any others. As we get closer to launch and more information is made available, we will be closer to a decision.

    I'll be there to rejoin Catch.XXII.
    And I understand perfectly if the two of you (Lug and mama) decide to decamp.  Every game runs its course, as does our enjoyment of it.
    About the only silver lining I can see in this generally dark cloud is that a group of vets with extensive knowledge of the game and all starting out together from square one, should be able to work together effectively and form strong bonds, as well as make good mutual progress.

    I Started a thread before this one showed up but it got lost in those  mass amount of approvals i reckon.  I would suggest to start with that we only make maybe 1 or 2 companies per nation.  That way we have more people working towards getting some colonies built up, and we'll have the ability or organize better for the development of the world.  "sounds like miss america speech" lol  but it's true,  25 companys with 2 peeps per won't be as effective as 2 companies with 25 peeps.  Even if u don't normally get along with said person in a company of ur nation, you can and we should be able to work together for a bit, til we get UWO back on it's feet.

    Sorry pierat, if I come back, it will be with people I know I can trust. Lug and I have gotten several pm's from folks still sitting on the fence, like us, asking to join us. We will remain multi-national, but we will still not allow pirates. My company was like a family, and will stay that way if I am involved in any way. We have always worked with others for the good of the greater community, often at the expense of our own game goals. If there's 8 companies in Lisbon, it doesn't matter. We'll be there doing our thing like we always did

    Yes, It may good to Fleet up for all purposes. I never started at the beginning, I came in after the Carib update. I will be a bit of a lost too.

    Can not say I join a co, but we need to cooperate. I like to do things myself.

    Company wise you guys know me. Companies have some perks.

    Almost can not wait now.

    I think we all need to start fleeting together and doing things for the game/ I am like you I never really fleeted while in a company but thinking like that needs to change for all of us to make UWO better then it was before

    Problem with StarKingdom company is, its company director, PAT has been absent for months at a time because PAT is required by Singaporean law to be conscripted into the Singaporean military (he told me such info months ago).

    Thus, the difficulty in StarKingdom company maintaining enough contribution points to have a company house (which is also why StarKingdom was moved from Seville to Lisbon with my help, since PAT was a Spain player, and I, Owvin, was a Portugal player, however many months ago, I don't remember the number of months ago, it was).

    Moreover, PAT has been mostly AWOL again in most of the month prior to OGPlanet's shutdown for, I suspect, PAT had to be in the military some more, PAT may be unaware of the OGPlanet's shutdown and server wipe of UWO and the account transfer from OGPlanet to Papaya.  Since PAT had to report for compulsory duty to Singapore's military and not be AWOL from Singapore's military, therefore, that's why PAT is AWOL from UWO & StarKingdom company all the way to shutdown.

    For much the same reason, there was practically no opportunity to do NA-Immigration Company quests, a pre-shutdown new UWO feature, which I'd like to do sometime after opening up all those port permits, for I have no idea how many NA-Immigration Company quests have to be collectively done for a company to fill the 4 technology bars needed to unlock company colony NPCs and other things there.

    For this reason, I'm largely no longer interested in StarKingdom, and I'm looking at a new/different  company, 
    and so far,
    CatchXXII  
    seems to be of interest to me,
    if it will/would be based in Lisbon upon relaunch (since Seville has been too hard to get enough contribution points for company house there), is of interest to me, as I'm practically an adventurer-trader type of player as far as playstyles are concerned (and throw in there, San Gabriel shipbuilding in Porto, if I ever make it that far), and I abstain from committing piracy and bounty-hunting is not my thing either.  
    Given that certain UWO features are unavailable to players not in active-enough companies: 
    If not CatchXXII, then what other companies do you suggest for an adventurer-trader like me?

    I am an adventurer/trader like you OwvinII, and like you I was in StarKingdom.  It was the company I was auto-recruited into after finishing Adventure School.  And like you, I became dissatisfied with the lack of activity.  Unlike you, I left StarKingdom and after a brief sojourn with another company ended up joining Catch.XXII.  Being a member of Catch.XXII has been an experience I could recommend without reservations to anyone with our style of play.  Fwiw and imho.

    I was in a company they auto fill you in and it was dead then I left and joined Sea Of Heart and they are a great group of people and was willing to help all the members in the comp. Not many like that around

    Until I can form my own St. Petersburg based Company, "Heralds of the Red Dawn", I plan on continuing with Catch.XXII.  Highly recommended to all who are willing to accept the rule of NO PIRACY and wish to concentrate efforts on Trade and Adventure.

    My company, KooblerDwarfCo, will also have a strict no piracy rule, except for those players who are pirates of course.

    @OwvinII Catch 22 will be in Lisbon again, as soon as Lug or I can start it back up, tbh I forget the level requirements to start a company, or if there were any. We were in the business of helping people, we worked together to get contribs for everyone on the 15th, those that could help did, but Lug and I collected and passed them out, with help from others. I've already shared our development blueprint here and on the fan FB page.
    I will be absolutely honest, however, if Papaya pushes the Pay to Play model Lug and I may not stay long.

    Mamacat, i'm swearing off attacking Catch.22 :D  If u and lug come back i won't attack any of ur comp members cause i'd rather have ya'll working to build game, then working to defend off pie :D  Unless Clemsonfan is in ur comp.  So far that's the only person i just really have to plunder a few times :D

    I appreciate the sentiment Pierat, I just wish you could resist the urge to post some of your more divisive comments here is all. There's too many people on the fence right now that are locked out of posting, but can still read what's here. I know since several of them have pm'd me. I said this before, there are 2 ways to go foward, community focused or individual focused. You really need to decide which one you're on, and stay there for a while.

  • pieratthepieratthe Posts: 419Member Intermediate
    I've already said that i would be community focus'd.  I plan on being in a fleet of 5 for the entire first months i'm playing, dragging people along with me to help build the game back up.  I won't be rushing to be the first to do something, unless it's my fleet is first to do it.  Now here's a little problem i see.  Fleets are 5, if they allow 3 toons.   i'm not dragging people and their alts around.  And few will play w/o their alts.  I already have plans in place to be able to start farming AoS's to ease BR's and will gladly take people along with me.  I also plan on getting my landbattle up quickly so i can take fleets into bordeaux so we can get PO's flowing.  And i will be doing lots of IQ's.  Also plan on doing collisum
     so we can get coins to get qmps cheaply so people can do quests.  I don't plan on selling all this stuff for huge profit either. No it won't be free, but i won't be doing it with the intention of getting rich off rebuilding the world.   Also i will be grinding as fast as possible to get the skills up so that once EA in unlocked i can do the dungeon quests for people so we can get those items flowing.  Also when i do MA's i will be inviting peeps to join me.  No need for me to have it all done and be super far ahead of everyone else.  Although i love a good grind, and char progression is what i enjoy doing. 




    So how are we to accomplish this?  
    ritz00000000crazyhunter2003
  • shelleylshelleyl Posts: 90Member Beginner
    How? Lets concentrate on keeping what we say here consistent with how we want to go forward, for openers. I get it you are over the moon over plunder and piracy, but can you put that aside until we have a solid community? We have to unlock all these IQ zones for all the nations before the pirates start their feeding frenzies, please. The adventurers are lazy and stupid post was really inflammatory, you know. I'm not even going to try to do adventure other than what I have to do to get ports developed, which is depressing, but necessary for the community at large. Lug's waiting to see what kind of community we're going to have left here before he'll commit to coming back, and we really need him.

    Don't think i've actually used the word "stupid" :D  Well that would be smart.  If anyone plan on pirating at the levels of 20 i do feel sorry for them.  They won't never get anywhere in the game.

    You really don't have to do much to be able to start a colony. I think the only requirement is that you get promoted from commoner to the first ranking by the head of your nation. Every colony leader should get the colonies going early.

    You can exchange Roman coins for QMPs?
    Whereabouts can you do that?
