@virus-strain said in [Mega Thread] - Player Griefing -Part 2:
@capt-crunch1969 I play effectively solo and am able to complete voyages. Passive solo play would have no barring on a full galleon group. It wouldn't hinder their gaming experience, but could in fact, enrich it. It could add to the whole, "there isn't much going on in this game, unless there is a skill fort pesent", issue. It would allow for more gamer interaction, to be able to BS with people and not have to fear them. Make them "merchants", or call it something other than passive. Or add in npc merchants for groups to plunder. There is an overwhelming amount of player griefin occur in because the gameplay can be stale for a lot of people.
Another option would be to allow a sloop to upgrade to a Galleon. If I get wrecked by a 4 man while solo, I have no option for revenge. I could try to take them on and hunt them down. I might even get lucky. But really, 4v1 is one sided. The option option to then get a crew, is to quit. Effectively giving up and having to switch servers-restarting.
Your response reminds me of the sea. Try to add to the gameplay-conversation and not belittle people.
Beter yet make sloops faster so they can run less fire power so they cant shot but they can run then those that dont want to engage in PVP dont they can simply run problem solved
