Pirates Event: Update Needed

[Jupitor]

Okay, how about changing it so that once you have successfully sailed pirates you can no longer access it? It may be that way now for all i know - I can tell you that since the beginning of beta AND the live server I have only made it across twice. I do like that when a large player attacks they will not be able to regenerate between hits.

Its also highly frustrating to go to the pirates screen and see that nearly every ship has one person in it of 1.5m and higher. And its very frustrating to be the only boat sailing and get attacked by a player that is NOT sitting in a boat or sailing.

Once you've made your voyages for the day the button does disappear shortly there after, however that doesn't matter at all as once you are out of voyages you can't attack anyone, anyway.

everyone is failing to understand the overall message.

make it so you can't view stats before you do this so called "pvp" otherwise , there is no logical reason why the ones with higher power will not exploit this flaw on the boats.


honestly what is the difference between viewing stats on the field before we pvp TO make sure it's a for sure win, compared to VIEWING stats on a boat to make sure its a for sure win?

am i drunk?

You CAN view stats on the boat, all you have to do is hover over their little circle below their names to see their power.

True God and Jupitor, how many times have you successfully finished pirates?

For me in beta server was always 3 times, on live server sometimes 3 sometimes 2 thats part of the game.

Or better... just make a cap of power above the player's on the ship that you can attack. So for example if 2 players on the ship are 250k and 300k power, only someone with a maximum of 350k power can attack that ship. That would make it much more fair.

hehe.

reread my message.

if you are going to allow exploitation on the boats, then switch back to the old pvp style and allow us to exploiter lower power players since we are NOT able to view stats on the PVP "field".


make it so we can view stats of the other person so us "higher" level and more power players can attack the weaker ones like the boats. It's only fair if we allow this on the PVP field as well,

why limit all the benefits of exploitation of viewing stats before "PVP" on a boat when we can share this exploitation all over the game on the field too!

[JohnDeW]

boats = view stats to make sure you can win before attacking
old pvp = view stats to make sure you can win before attacking


new pvp = can't view stats to make sure you will win before attack
new boats = can view stats to make sure you can win before attacking


a flaw? of course not if your exploiting it!
a flaw? if you noticed the same players day after day taking advantage of everyone else on the boats?

whats the difference between me camping the "pvp field" checking stats to get millions of coins without risking a single loss?

i mean why would they make it so we COULDN'T view stats before we went to attack on the "pvp field" ?

Here's the problem with your stance in my opinion. The "exploiting" you are talking about in pirates is people like me sitting in boats. People CAN check my power before they attack me trying to take my map piece, obviously they don't and I revenge them for it. It is their fault for not seeing if they could beat me in the first place, so how is this an exploit?
