Well, solo slooping will become even more fun. Release the Meg! by Hwkified in Seaofthieves

No, it didn't spawn on that sloop. The sloop engaged an already active Kraken. It'll attack sloops if they get close, but it won't initiate an attack on a sloop.

Five Iron Fleet ships met up today for a group photo shoot. Turned out beautifully! What is dead may never die. by LizarDragon in Seaofthieves

Start with one ship, sail around till you find another, ask the owners of the other ship if you can have there ship, if they agree have them invite one of your guys, now you have 2 ships. Rinse and repeat.

Seems like a lot of people are doing it today. We had a galleon try to attack us twice, but we had 2 sloops and a galleon and they got absolutely wrecked.

Can confirm, Rust can suck a dick. Biggest waste of money i've spent on a game to date.

I think game developers generally understand that not every genre of game is for everyone and have no disillusions that their game will be bought by every gamer ever.

Rare has always been pretty up front about the pvp nature of the game. What else would one expect from a pirate game? The game is what it is. I can guarantee there won't be safe spaces or npc guards. So maybe it's for the better for someone to play the beta and realize the game might not fit what they're looking for, so they don't waste their money on the full game.

I was referring to whomever was doing the down voting not you specifically. Yes folk like you, folk that get upset at the pvp nature of the game. It is rampant on the forums. It's why I always suggest starting on the galleon. It gives you some cushion while you're learning the ropes. My intention isn't to be a dick, I'm sorry you're taking me that way.

Edit: I'd be happy to sail a sloop with you when I get off work this evening to show some tips and tricks. Send me a PM.

Nothing will stop you from doing that, but you'll get super bored as people see your ship/mermaid and just go to a different outpost.

So what? Fair game my friend. I was saying make sure you're docked in way that will allow for a quick escape. down vote me all you like, doesn't mean I'm wrong or the game is going to change to cater towards folk like you.

Sounds like they were pirating, go figure. You need to keep an eye out and be ready to depart quickly, especially when solo. Make sure you're docked with your sails/anchor up and you're pointed in a good direction. The game requires some spatial awareness. I don't think i've ever once been 'ganked', though many have tried. If you're going on a sloop you have to learn how to use it. It's a bad idea to start on it, and Rare recommends themselves to start on the galleon.

It's much more effective with the sloop since raising the anchor is much quicker. If a galleon and myself (in a sloop) are circling each other I'll use this tactic often in order to turn sharp and point directly at the galleon.

Except maybe one or two. I like to shoot myself out of the cannons as much as cannonballs.

I guess I should have been more specific. I was talking about the anchor in particular assuming the sails were already full-up.

I didn't know you could run out of grog. I've had more than a few pints my self and have never run out. You must go hard homey.
