Attempted to attack a fort that a galleon was at with a 2 man sloop. We didnt sink once, until i was on the island, and my buddy got boarded by another player and killed several times right as soon as he spawned. Problem is, I cant think of a solution to this problem. Maybe a time limit as to how long you can stay on an enemy boat? but then what if they just jump off and climb back onto reset the time? Moment of invincibility for the player spawning if there is an enemy on the boat to give them a fighting chance? What are your suggestions?
spawn camping on sloops
@satirical-lad Scuttle your Ship is the only thing you might can do in such a situation. (The option should be more visible, maybe make it a Hint after you die twice) As my friends didn't know what we can do after our ship spawned upside down (Yeah it looked ridiculous) And I remembered this option after 15mins) Its hidden at the bottom in the menue where you can mute your crew) on PC: ESC - and then down left in the corner
@destrolock13 I've known about scuttling since day one, but should that be my one and only option? I don't think the scuttle option is there for when you get spawn camped, more for when your ship is stuck like you said. And what about a different situation where you have a bunch of treasure? suppose to just give it up?

The spawn camping is a problem, that will hopefully be addressed, but; if someone got on your boat and killed you, you have lost your treasure.
Then you have a choice; try and fight to get it back, or give it up.@kotetsuchiha I completely understand and agree. I have no problem if they take my treasure and leave and I then have to chase them down. No problem because that expected in the game. I have a problem of losing my treasure, dying every time I spawn, and having no chance of chasing them down. Spawn camping is a problem in a lot of multiplayer games. And it's difficult to come up with a solution that makes sense and is fair in SoT. If they honestly can't come up with something, I'll just have to adapt better and make sure i dont get rammed or boarded while on a sloop. Kinda just wanted to know if other minds had potential solutions(not scuttling). I always appreciate feedback!
@satirical-lad
I have suggested this a few times, and believe it would solve a lot of problems reg, spawn camping and the repeated hunting of one crew.There is a real issue with the Ship spawn and crew spawn works, and I hope Rare has a solution soon.
In the mean time; the best way out is to Scuttle.
