we need more then current on the sotl guys, I mean the holes in which cannons should be in, we use them, and then the wall becomes invisible for US, the cannoners. Still We need repair Slots, if not the hull, we need to repair the HP, many times on outlaw's sotl, the hp is veery low but the hull is nearly full.

First of all, adding a Ship of the line would not down grade sailing (I've driven one on test and it was fun) and if they do add a sotl, they will most likely add tougher ships for us more experienced pirates, why there might even be roaming sotl

Im sure the SOTL will come in due time.

My GM in test has one, I have had the privelage to crew it and even drive it, but it needs some tweaking.

The broadside aim was horrible. A ship can be next to you and only two cannon-balls will hit it. I also think that they should move cannons back into the spots in the wall, to fix the problem with the view, they can turn the wall invisible for cannoneers, like they do on the front sails on a frigate.

I also reckon the cargo and crew and maybe even the amount of broadside should be increased, at the moment it is nothing more than a War Galleon with ALOT of armour.

And to add to the list of stuff they need, we need stronger enemies now with the SOTL. Maybe more SOTLs that have a permenant route on the ocean, they can also have more armour than the normal SOTLs to make it a challenge to kill.

But apart from some of the glitches (mentioned and unmentioned), im sure we will see it on test in the near future.

I've been on one, I even got to Drive it, it's really cool and I hope it comes out soon.

We destroyed the QAR with one on Test. We had, like, twenty pirates on board. ;)

The ship of the line is coming. I was on it the day it was released as well as a day closer to now. There were many changes making it more piratey and allowing you to cannon in palces that you couldn't before. There was a wall in the way.. At first it was red and white like a Navy Ship. So we all thought it was a bug because EVERY enemy ship you could buy. Of course nobody went after the others they wanted the biggest. I was there for the leak unfortunately i am only lvl 6 there so I could not afford me one. I do have friends with the ship of course. They have allowed me to crew it many times and teh changes it has gotten do not suggest an enemy ship. It has the colors of our pirate ships.:piratewheelgo2:




I hope you are wrong. Disney better not release trade. That just opens up the door for more greifing. You all know it to be true. A little lvl 23 getting El Patron's Lost Sword. Some lvl 50 tricking him saying his privateering cutlass is even better so they trade and the lvl 23 lost the rarest sword around. If they release this I will not be happy but sad at what will come out of some pirates nowadays.

I do not like the thought of trading either. There are no enough items in POTCO for trading to be fun. This would allow players to gain hold of every famed weapon there is in the game easily (which is not a lot, compared to other games), and make the game boring.

I do hope they are working on staff tho, I am running out of motivation to loot. :sadmh9:

lol, I can't wait to see the SOTL vs one of those light sloops in svs which have powerful fury gunners that can can destroy a war frigate in seconds. :)

We can only hope they keep their word.
(Yes, this message has been out for over a week, and there's already been a thread about it)

Attachment 4605
This says otherwise. Only thing anyone ever got.

I could have gotten the Cerberus if I had sold my Warships - because at the time, I had 80k gold and a War Sloop, War Galleon and War Frigate - but I never did so for whatever reason. Stupid me, I could've had Explosive broadsides...

Ok i stand corrected. Apartently some did. Not many though.. Then again the leak only lasted what 2 hours?

They MIGHT of released it by accident with no intention of ever releasing it... as of the ships we fight dont have repair slots

It lasted over a day. I remember I had plenty of time to buy something, but I wasted it all being on a Ship of the Line for gold.

:mybadki6:

Still, at least there's a Kingfisher that I can occasionally have fun with :D

Edit:
The Buyable Kingfisher does have repair spots. It also has Chainshot Broadsides, which is not what a regular NPC Kingfisher has, which is Round Shot.

Im only talking about the ship of the line...
i have NO IDEA why they released the navy and undead ships...

What other 5 ships do you speak of???

Earlier in the year six ships were accidentally released to the test server which weren't fully complete, the ship of the line being one of them. Because the Ship of the line was already released as an enemy ship, many players bought it. However, there were five other ships that most people didn't buy.

Note: The screenshots you are about to see are not confirmed ships that will be released. This is all speculation but it's very likely these ships will enter the game sometime in the future.

Here are the modified(barely) player versions of some enemy ships which may or may not be released in the future.

El Patron's Ship: (Notice the player blue/red markings on this ship. This is what distinguishes our player ships from the enemies, at least for now)

There hard to see but you'll notice on the back of the ship there are the player ship markings.

Ship of the Line:

Again I note that these pictures are actually models currently from the phase files, however these have NOT been confirmed by POTCO as ships to be released in the future. Until the next update, enjoy these to keep you thinking.

P.S. Every ship has three classes. There have not been any indications in the phase files which point to any different classes of any of these ships.

EDIT: I apologize for a mistake I made. El Patron's ship type does NOT have any player markings on it, although at first glance you may think it looks like an average player ship.

Nice find, mate!
