I was calmly doing allegiance with a friend. Unfortunately, we spawned in the fog. The problem is that, due to the recent HG change (the fact that you instantly explode at the boundary) combined with the fog, we couldn’t see where we were and ended up exploding, after a particularly boring fight where no one was landing any cannon shots. I think a fix for this wouldn’t hurt...
SoT Should remove fog from hourglass
@sweetsandman you asked for PvP, you got PvP but in a location you didn’t like. You still got what you wished for.

I mean, you're not wrong... I'd still argue it's bad design.
If the storm/fog rolls in because you're match is taking too long, that's one thing...but to start it off that way is unfavorable.
And spawning it on top of an ancient meg is just ridiculous. It's pretty much GG for whoever it targets first, especially if it's the Barnacled Dread.
@sweetsandman they already fixed storm spawns in season 8, it can only happen on invades. They just forgot about everything else

Soo...your blaming the Fog because you couldnt use the Map? Which shows you where the Boarder and enemy ship location.
I swear, I cant understand the HG only community.
Hourglass is a Tool for adventure, to PvP on the server. You skip the sailing part to find a like minded player, and arrive on the server as you would if you sailed around and attacked a passing ship. IF it be during a Voyage, Passing Npc or Weather.
You fight...win or lose, use the Fog to win if you must...Seems the biggest issue is not the Fog...but the Boarder...that closes in on you...something you all desired. Never thought about the other stuff.
Maybe a third party ship stays outside the boarder and has good aim to shoot at you. Sinking you.
