Proposed CP Changes

I would like to propose a limitation on attacking in Caribbean Pirates. In order to attack a sailing boat, at least one of the occupants of that boat must be within a certain percentage of your current power (20-30%?). This would give smaller players a 'fighting' chance to have a successful voyage and possibly complete the assitant. please understand, I am not bashing the ability to steal maps and attack those sailing. I am only saying it should be limited so that you are not facing an opponent double, triple, or more your current power level, unless the person you are sialing with has that kind of power.

Thoughts? Criticisms?

So the guy who is top on our server can attack nobody? As he is 50% higher then anyone on the server?


Example. Bill is 50mil and in guild A, Ben is 35mil and Bob is 100mil both in guild B.

Ben is sailing away with someone around his level and Bill comes along and sinks them.
Bill now sails away.

At the moment Bob can come revenge his guild mate and sink Bill.

In your scenario Bob can't do anything.


And one last point.
At 50mil I can drop a hero or 2 and go to 30mil, and still sink boats at 25-35mil without issue.

Granted. I was not aware that some servers had that large of a power difference. What is sinking a ship had a chance of losing the map altogether? You could revenge a guild mate but are not guaranteed that you would get the map. 50/50 it would be lost forever.

The best solution, in my belief, is to limit the number of sinks you can do per day.

Maximum of 5 sinking attempts per day per account.

I think that is a great idea Herby

Leave Pirates alone. Enough watering down the game. Everything doesn't have to be "even, equal, fair, don't hit me or i cry".

Agree, enough already, as it is with the new changes people are crying that they cant get a spot on the docks at peak hours cause there are no spots left. leave it alone now please.

I suggested in the past that different power levels should get different kinds of maps when they claim. Basically, there would be no limits on who you can attack. However, you would get better maps from attacking higher powers, and better maps would mean better rewards. This would encourage players to wait for stronger players to sink instead of sinking anyone, but they could also sink lower level players if they need the sailing for their assistant. This would also reduce the incentive of using alt accounts, as their sails would not be rewarding. This would also make sailing more relevant to higher powers, because 150,000 coins isn't much let's face it.

Why not just stop all PVP and make this Farmville...guess most don't get the concept of a war game. Next people will want our soldiers to carry scales and tape measure onto the battle field to make sure they don't shoot anyone smaller than them.

I like ChickenWings idea.
