The Game is OK but this constant focus on the pirates or the needs of the pirates is killing it for me. No other group has this kind of focus in this game from the Company.
Ever since the server was reset, it been mainly about pirates.
I Will Call It OUT.
The people who run this game have a bias for pirates and as they do, it is not fair to others that play this game who do not play pirates.
I call into question, the objectivity of the people running this game. It is like the rest of us are their for the pirates and nothing else.

It's true that not everyone likes making discoveries and some crafted items are not as good as UWC items, but wouldn't it be fair to say that the traders and even adventurers would be inclined to spend more too if the design were more dependent on finding information out (crafting recipes and where to find books) INSIDE the game as opposed to constantly having to use ivyro as a crutch?
I also noticed a very distinct lack of craftsmen/women. You should be able to go to a capital city and find the best sails, cannons and vigour food for great prices. I only ever see people selling EA goods, lol.
The autosail, blue flags, veils, alts, and Clermonts have made traders life so easy that many of them set autosail and nanban while afk.
That is not Playing the game.
It's too late to fix many of the issues since it would piss off the masses.
Leave the pirate cool down at 1 hour.
Allow 1 toon to play at a time as the game was designed.
Get rid of autosail.
Let us all Play the game.
Back when the game first started up to the end of nm alts where baned from sailing with a main.
Only under ogp thanks to coolwind did it become a thing because he lied to ogp at the time.
What do u think guilds where for.
so we could work togeather as a community to cover the weakness of each other its one of the things at the time that made uwo so great because no matter what u did there was someoneelse that needed your help or goods u made or was able to get from npc.
Thats all but gone .
The game as it now adays is more solo based thin anything its sad to have played back thin and to see now what it has become over greed.
Just because the people running the server allow extra toons does not mean the designers intended the game to be played this way.
Of course now the genie is out of the bottle and no way to put them back.
But don't lie to yourself that 3 toons and 3 different instances is how it is meant to be played.
You are not supposed to have every skill and item. You are supposed to make a choice.
If you were supposed to use multiple toons at once, the interface would allow control of a party of toons which it does not.
Justifying it to yourself is just an attempt to make yourself feel better about bending the rules.
Just because a police officer does not give you a ticket for speeding does not mean that the speeding is now totally fine.
It's a sandbox MMO. When it's designed the designers don't know how it will be used.
As players we are adaptive and creative. We turn the sandbox into something that suits us.
I could just as easily argue all you single-toon players are dinosaurs who haven't adapted to the changing environment. But I'm not - It's a sandbox. Use it how you like.
'MMO' was purely an industry description of the potential of new technologies (massively multiplayer online). It's the potential for adding new dimensions to gameplay. It's not a Rule - that you have to play cooperatively.
Most players cooperate some of the time. Which means most players most of the time are doing their own thing - playing in ways that made them gamers in the first place.
Wes using 2 toons to complete a quest us no different from Culvern the lone wolf pirate.
True you can play 2 toons on one computer. But the 3 that the host allows requires 2 computers.
I never said that multiboxing is not hard work.
Just love how everyone justifies their actions with such vigor.
Still waiting for someone to point out any other game the you need to have 2 or more sessions running to control 1 party of toons?
If using a party is what was INTENDED then it would be controlled by 1 instance of the game.
Play how you want. But be honest with yourself and OWN your decisions.
You try to sound reasonable but really you are trying to needle players with more than one toon.
I have three toons and I play 2 at a time. What do I need to be honest about? I (honestly) enjoy myself.
Many things in real life were invented for one purpose but end up being used in different ways. Motor cars for example. Are we going to insist people only use them as a means of a to b transport?
There's nothing sacrosanct about a designer's intentions. Once something is in the public domain, the way it gets used is unpredictable.
I am amazed how the operator is still trying to ignite the pvp craze by changing pvp rules in the hope of brightening p-2-w arms race.
And yes, I agree with others in this forum that the remaining players are just addicts and nothing else. Do not pretend there will be new players improving the situation when there is zero advertising happening at all.
I quit this game for good. At one stage i was hoping it could improve a little and maybe i’ll find my way back and contribute what i may afford.
I do not see any improvement. All that I see is the same old greed preying on the same old hopeless addicts.
Good luck with this game.
You've been the Prophet of Doom since day 1 of the restart. If I remember rightly you predicted it wouldn't last 3 months.
Looks like you were wrong about that.
Maybe you'll keep being wrong.
Maybe it's time you joined the party. Help us keep it going rather than waiting for it to fail.
September 15th officiallly makes 1 full year thats 4x as long as your initial 3 month prediction just saying…

And others will cry about the way others play even though it does nothing to harm their game play and is NONE OF THEIR BUSINESS!!
So what if it is an MMO? Do you want everyone who likes to play mostly single-player to quit? I almost feel like coming back just to sink your selfish butt over and over. But you are not worth it. All those great players I knew are gone for good and the game has gone to far forward in time. You are very short-sighted. Get some better glasses.
