@bloodybil Who cares? It is just his opinion, in games like cod there are also people who are playing just pvp, or just the zombie mode. Where is the Problem if you give the players the disicion?
People already have the choice to do what they want - within the shared world, which is the core of the game.
If you want to battle with other Players you can go into the Arena, there are players who want to do the same. Hunting down people who don't want to battle in PVP is for stupid people.
Because people want to do both PVE and PVP? How is that so hard to understand? I won't limit myself because you are. I could tell you that if you want to PVE only, do so in the Maiden's voyage. What's that, you want to do more than what is included in that limited scenario? So do I!
This game has a storyline also, but you can't really play missions alone cause some salty kids appear and destroy your totally empty anchored ship just for their fun. It's like bullying, fun for some people, but not for everyone. The ones who hunt down other people and sink them have fun, but there are always 2 sides of one medal. One crew has fun, the other one lefts the game often, and sometimes they don't come back.
Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose, like in any game. People can manage to play alone plenty, don't be a salty kid yourself by complaining about being beaten by another crew. If people can't accept defeat and prefer to leave, that's their personal issues. Personally when I lose I dust myself up and keep going on my merry way without having a meltdown.
I like to play adventure with my full piratelegend crew, but we play defensive, and that is a rare ting. We sink every ship which attacked us first. But if a ship is just passing by and the crew is friendly, maybe offers an ally, why the hell I should destroy their gameplay and sink them? One ship is on missions and fights for hours, the other one is just spawned and has nothing to lose. This is not fair, and without a pve mode is it very hard for new players to get into the game before they unistal it cause the get sunked too often. It's a nice game, if you win the most of the fights you have fun playing it, but there are also people who lose their ships everytime.
Again, sometimes you win and sometimes you lose. Every session is different, and you never know what kind of encounters you will have. Saying some people get sunk every time is a clear exaggeration.
You can't get any progression, just levels and skins. I leveled up to piratelegend in pvp, but in my point of view it is not a different if it was pve or pvp. Everybody should be able to chose his own playstyle. You even are not able to unlock better ships or something like that, everything you can unlock are skins. So why don't give the people the option to play on a private or PVP server in a fleet and still get progression? I think everyone should be able to make progress in the way he wants to. If there will be a PVE server at some time guys like you will get people at the PVP server who will know what kind of server they had choosed, fight for their ship, and you will get sunk more often. But then if you can't farm the little beginners and it's not that funny for you anymore.
The new season system will reward progression for all kind of activites, turning loot or not. People of all kinds and play styles will feel some kind of progress whether they get sunk or not. If people want the full progress experience, they can do so in public like everyone else, and unwind in custom. People won't get an easy-mode shelter to grind the biggest voyages and events in peace, you can forget about that.
The community changes since the game was launched. It even happens less that you meet a friendly crew, open an alliance and have fun together, and in my opionen this fact is very sad. I really liked the way of the game around 2019 where you had met new people, open an alliance, doing any stupid or funny things for hours, added each other to the friend lists after it and just have fun at the seas.
And according to the latest interview about seasons, the game is more popular than it has ever been, and with the biggest player count they have ever seen. I guess most people manage to accept defeat like grownups and get to enjoy the game once they understand that you know, it's a game and sometimes you win and sometimes you lose. And the more experience you get, the more you win and the more fun you have. Cheers!
