Ancored at Shores of gold and activate PVP

  • What to do with the players that ancors at Shores of Gold and activates the sand clock? I can not even report them! They are far for the spyglass identification.

  • ...sure u can... I dint even think this was possible. So like what happens? You spawn in the Red Sea and sink?

  • @red0demon0 I think he means you can't report them, because you can't see their gamertags and Rare demands reports with screenshots/vids where you can clearly see the gamertags.
    You probably be spawning just outside the red sea, but the enemy is anchored inside it and thus you can't reach them. Those are crews who deliberately do that and just camp there untill the enemy gives up and scuttles to get free wins.

    You sail right for the blackscreen wall. You bucket till you hit it. It will blackscreen you, you will lose your streak but you will remain on the server. Go get TT9 and hunt them down.

    Yes. Well... not exaclty. When you start with fully deployed sails, you get into the red area very quickly and if you do not turn around quickly, you sink. And if you turn around but go back too far, your sand clock explodes. They leave a tiny gap of non-red-sea area where you appear. So... the best you can do is to play a patience game.

    I see him at X5. I am fishing at U5 since one hour now. Because he doesn't move.

    What's the point of hunting but loosing the streak?

  • Be strong, my pirate friend, wait him out! I will gladly take your ship and continue the wait for you.

    Put up the reaper mark, see if anyone comes around, ask for a ride out there to get the name and screen shots.

  • Record and report anyway.

    They can use the timestamps from the video and matchmaking records to figure it out.

    Include prettymuch the same info from your post here describing what happened.

  • Update: I won the patience game. He came to me. But for sure he will try with someone else.
    Thanks for the moral support, mates.

  • @captthreepwood

    Woo! Record and report still lol.

  • What report tho?
    Maybe they are doing the tall tale, is it against the rules to be invaded while doing a tall tale now?

    What about the pirates life? You spawn in and 20 phantom ships are firing at you…you gonna report them for that too?

  • @captthreepwood glad you held firm. I trust the devs are working on a fix for this. I reported exactly how they are doing it and they said they were forwarding it to their securities and testing team. Normally they say they are forwarding it to the devs, so I think they take this seriously. If we are lucky it’ll be in a patch this Thursday or Friday, cause I assume there will be an update the end of this week for the Festival of Giving they just announced.

  • @burnbacon TT9 was specifically blocked and the only way to activate it and the hourglass is to glitch the system. So yeah, in this case, it is a bad thing. The rest of the tall tales they left unlocked to use freely with factions, just Shores of Gold is in question. And for obvious reasons, as people use it to force wins.

    As for disciplinary actions, I don’t know if that’s in question here. I just think we want the devs to fix the exploit they already intended to not be a thing.

    TT9 was blocked. I checked because I was going to do exactly what OP's opponent was doing. It's not supposed to work, and it's an exploit. The Pirate's Life TT you're referring to the ghost ships don't target players, so it's all for show.

    Now if you got spawned into a fleet battle or active fort...lol good luck. Could probably snuggle up under Old Faithful, Marauder's Arch and Kraken Fall for a similar effect lol.

  • @captthreepwood to ruin their exploit
