Thanks guys!

So... how about that ship AI?

Just something which might help (against the current, aggressive ship AI) - https://piratesforums.co/threads/sailing-tips.18818/#post-265604. Post to revert to found here.

It's great. Glad it was changed, TLOPO developers did amazing as usual

love it feels like a true challange!

Anything with active opponents is a thousand times better than that target range of stationary bullet sponges. Now we just gotta persuade the players to start moving too!

 

[Stephen Teague]

Love the speed of the ships... puts you on edge as you try to maneuver!

 

[Yulia]

If I've stopped talking about it the lease you all can do is stop taunting me over it. This is really immature.

Thank you Davy, you're awesome!

Aye, I'm loving that they actually have a mind now. I've been moving and they can barely keep up though, should teach them what the "A" and "D" keys are as well... strafing is great for taking care of speedy foes!

Aye! Do you prefer to use a crew or do you like going solo?

I do just fine solo, crews tend to make it too easy. I'm sure that will change when Bounty Hunters make an appearance one day

It would be interesting if every ship had a slightly different strategy. As I increase my speed and turning rate I do find I'm settling into a one-size-fits-all combat routine, at least for one-on-one fights.

Thank you for the suggestion! A more varied strategy from the AI would be interesting to see, I agree.

Maybe some team AI eventually, so groups of ships spread out to attack you from different angles rather than all gathering together in your wake getting in each others way.

Ooh, I like that! More strategy in that for sure!
