@europa4033
You are entitled to you opinion but it sound as if you are working as a dev with tons of experience which is not the case?
My suggestion is entirely possible for them to program and it's up to rare and not you if they want to do it, I don't think you have the final word in the matter xD
I've been repeating that's it will have to be tested on different types on crew sizes but saying out right that it won't work, it's not intended for solo players is just profound. I'm not saying it is 100% the way to go but it's not impossible and not a stretch from the current situation with skeletons repairing and fireing cannons. I don't get the point you are trying to make that it's not possible?
They could set up a BB with sceletons on a test servers that angles sails, buckets water, watches ladders and experiment and tweak with it. If it doesn't work it doesn't, up to devs.
I'm only giving my take and suggestion on the matter.
When the Burning Blade was being developed, the developers didn't sit there and say, "Oh wait, we need to have skeletons do things that have never been programmed in the game before to accomodate people who want to solo galleons. Let's have a gally-crewed burning blade angle sails. It's both over-powered against attacking ships, and yet not fair to how we'll design the brig/sloop Burning Blade, but that's just too bad for them. For the brig-crewed Burning Blade, let's see, maybe we'll have them adjust sails, fire cannons, repair, and bucket water out. For the sloop Burning Blade, we'll have them adjust sails, fire cannons, repair, bucket, guard ladders, helm, give them machine guns to insta-kill anyone, fire chainshots, make coffee, deliver pizza, and now this is perfectly balanced."
Burning Blade has been developed and is a world-event. Any and all feedback when it first came out (a year ago) was received, and changes, if any, were already made. Having to balance all of this, sounds like an absolute nightmare for the developers, and would've delayed season 13 for months. What we have in the game, is likely not going to change, if the issue is you're trying to simply solo it and are having a hard time with that, while other crews have zero issues at all. You have a choice to make here: wait years and see if they take your opinion into consideration and make bots so people can solo galleons and the Burning Blade (don't hold your breath lol), or, do whatever commendations you need to do with a competant crew. I'll tell you right now you'll get your achievements completed way sooner. It's your choice.
Maybe they'll run with your idea, and consider other types of "help" for people who aren't good at cannons, or aiming guns, or bilging, or helming, or TDMing, or earning levels in hourglass, or who are being chased, or who don't like sinking, or those who need to earn more gold faster, or those who feel that flying on dragons is a much faster way to travel. I mean, you never know, right? LOL.
