  • Working as intended, one way to keep pirates from benefiting from chasing someone down.

  • @hipsu555 hmm never tried this. I usually just throw it over board while being chased if I have to much.

    No, never just throw it over board, run off the map. If I don't get to keep it, no one else will either lol

    Are you sure??
    I have done this numerous times to people who chase me for ages.
    Go past an outpost, jump overboard with most valuable item & cash it in, mermaid back to ship & rinse, repeat.
    Once you have cashed in enough, set you ship on a course to go off the map & sit at the outpost watching your unmanned empty ship & the clueless chaser disappear off into the distance!!

  • @jedi-firefly well if its just a seafarers chest, sometimes they'll drop anchor to retrieve. It's helped me out once or twice.

  • @hipsu555 As the old adage "it's not yours until you cash it in" (maybe that one's not so old!). If the loot is on their ship and they choose to deny it rather than let it fall in to your hands, that's the choice they make I'm afraid.

    Just have to figure out how to catch the slimy suckers quicker I guess! ;)

    If this is intented thats a really bad game design. Its more an exploit than anything else. Its a pirate game, part of it is chasing someone down.

  • @hipsu555 When im tierd of being followed i do my best to dump the loot when behind concealment. If not, i sail off the map. Not gonna let pirates get it when im in no mood to fight. I think its fair.

  • @hipsu555 making someone lose all their loot is a bad game design? riiiggghhttt. @KigreTheViking Great thinking! if they want it bad enough. Let that loot be with the sea!

  • @hipsu555 how about stop chasing people to the end of the world just to take their s**t?

  • @hipsu555 good on them

  • @hipsu555
    Why? This is a classic "If I cna't have it then no one can." Props to them for making the ultimate sacrifice

  • honestly man I've reduced my issues with people chasing me down to absolute zero by keeping a couple gunpowder barrels on deck. drop em off the back of the ship. nothing puts the fear of God into a man more than having to patch 8 holes at once.

    Working as intented. If they want a sailing simulator they wouldnt add cannons to the game.

  • Pick a new target and get over it.

  • Sounds to me that it worked as it's supposed to.

  • One thing I did the other day when I knew I was doomed, which is basically any time a ship comes towards me, I always keep only one piece of treasure on my ship and a pocket full of bananas. I grab my treasure and jump into the sea and go as deep as I can. Like to the vary bottom (if it's reachable). When I run out of air and my health starts taking a hit, I start eating bananas (yes you can eat them underwater). Once I have finished all my bananas I am usually so deep it's dark. I then die with my treasure many many fathoms deep. Not sure what happens to the treasure when I die. Does it float to the surface? If not, yay, the cowardly PvPer doesn't get my treasure. If it does float I wonder how long it takes to rise. Long enough for the PvPer to chase other some other easy target? xD

    I have also gone off the edge of the map, which usually causes the PvPer to cry like a big girl xD

    Then again, I guess I am a big girl too for running in the first place. xD Oh well, got to make it as hard for them as possible. Make them earn their booty.

  • @hipsu555 how long you were chasing them?

  • Sounds like way longer than was enjoyable for the poor sloop

  • I am going to launch the game and just stick on the edge of the blood sea and see if I can make griefers follow me in. Let's see who's got the biggest potatoes! xD

  • @myrm but the guys who want to PVP aren't griefers. You know it right?
