theres no ship insight

hmm chances are POTCO is playing around with the enemies and find out where to put them like the other day it was SOOO funny for some odd reason there was a lvl 29 Man-O-War parked outside of the devils anvil and literally hundreds of light sloops tried to sink it and literally hundreds sank

ya, i noticed after last nights "maintence" theres alot of flagships and very few ships at all. except for the above mentioned flag ships that spawn next to devils anvil, and the fleet of light sloops attacking them...its always funny to coast by in my galleon and smoke one of the ships, and see all the light sloops rush to try and board it...or keep shooting it while i board it.

I like the fact there are more flag-ships, but ive annoyed that there are few ships out at all. they need to find a happy medium from what it was last night (ships everywhere) and tonight.

lol yes i saw the man o war near devil anvil too it was funny.
damn its really slowing down my quest somehow. and today the problem hasnt been solved.

theres no much option to switch server since i play the test and theres only 2 server lol.

well at least having little ships meant we dun have to look over our shoulder to see whose sinkin us.

I noticed the same thing yesterday on both the Open and Test servers. A friend and I tried several oceans on the Open servers and finally gave up. Later in the evening, I spent a long time sailing around on Test trying to find Navy galleons or frigates with another friend. We finally managed to sink two Flags (near Driftwood and waited for respawn), after rejecting the Flag Man O' War and the Colossus near Cuba. We did not have enough crew to defeat either of those.

This getting rather silly. So few ships, most of all flagships, and/or higher level ships. Great for those of you that have been here a while.. bad news for those of us just getting started.

Is there no offical word on this change that happened? I agree it's something that happened after maintenance.. but some word from those in control would be nice, and when they plan to fix it.

Plundering ships is what I like doing, and I can't do it. Those few ships that are around, are swarmed on too fast, and are too high to kill alone for alot of newbies. I know it will be fixed (i hope) and this is a new game, and things like this are bound to happen, and there are plenty to do other then just plunder ships. But it's still what I enjoy doing, and I can't do it.. thus, I rant.

[Magilicotti]

With that breif maintenance they brought back the ships, but as soon as they were killed, the only thing that spawned back were the flagships.. bah

Agreed,

Has been fun boarding ships, killing one guy and then laughing as the rest are killed by cannons, but still need more low-mid level ships to plunder.
