Thanks Chazmano for showing me the ropes (I guess that term actually comes from ships?) Great fun. I will grab pics later. Where are you hosting them?

Always get a fuzzy feeling when it steals others away.

Been using imgur/twitter to post the up here man.

it’s was a good induction man we started with the basics how the ship works

then set sail for a starter mission which slowly turned into fighting a few captains then followed by me showing him the spoils of a vault

We reaped they rewards

Then home to sell them off almost did and two skelly ships just appeared from no where but we dodged them haha

We ended the night sending our ship off to Valhalla

Hope it helped djorn

Djornson

It helped a lot i think i get it all now. Combat is bit tricky but i will get there. Can't believe i've neglected this game for all this time.

Cos

Ooh, I've never seen a vault. That looks awesome. So much more still to figure out in this game!

Lovely shots again, Chaz.

With the weekend in view I thought this may be of use.

Watched many SOT guides, but this guy hits the spot. Great content, avoids spoilers and his measured delivery is refreshing, soothing even.

15 minutes with this tutorial will save you hours.
(Skip to 3:12 to get to the skinny though)

Bon voyage, scan the horizon and may the wind be at your back.

Oh Hair, your write ups of your adventures on the seas with franny and boolit and the fellas are what made me buy an Xbox for this game and then made me convince 3 of my non gamer mates who never play online to join me to save our sanity during lockdown.
We started in April and were still sailing once a week nearly a year on. It's the only time we get together, get merry and have a right good laugh as a group.

Only problem is now, I can't get the fuckers to put it down and try PW or squadrons or anything else for that matter. So damn you..... sorry that took a turn

I meant to say cheers again.

Vaults are good man a lot of loot but time consuming but you end up doing random things and picking up treasure on route so it all adds up hah

I’m just one of many sea badgers who’ve dropped their logs in here over the last three years, g.man, Gremill, Pie, Ram, Sparky to name a few.

Maybe the real treasure were friends we kept along the way.

If it’s actual booty yer after though, the maiden voyage tutorial has some hidden close to a submerged key...

Good huntin.

Chazmano

Oh aye

bad_hair_day

Forming alliances is my new favourite and now hit that crow’s nest first thing. Otherwise wouldn’t have encountered these two delightfully shady fellows who accepted the invitation and kindly showed me a stowaway spot.

‘Sneaky Hungarians’ got a hearty LOL seemingly enjoying the title, another international faux pas dodged!

I could only croak a few sentences but Kriss & Pakk were great fun, plus after learning the family moniker goes before their first name, a little education for me.

We spotted then sunk a Brig and a huge haul was swiped from the wreckage. Even with a harpoon it took an age - they were definitely returning for this! Only, they weren’t coming back because one (or more) scoundrels had been hiding on our ship!

Unfortunately, karmic death spawned me back to my own boat. Probably will never know how that all went down. One can imagine though.

Chazmano

Good to see you back in action and on the seas hair

I finish nightshift on sat morning lads and cannot wait to get back on the seas so hopefully sat or Sunday night if any1 is up for it

Chazmano

Went full pirate last night with drew boozy and karzee

Spent most of the night in a storm and fighting boss level skelly ships

Like to know the story behind why most this lot was left in a cave at Devils Ridge.

Shaking with excitement, I harpooned that hoard onboard like a jackhammer. Saw off the inevitable Kraken (those tinkers at Rare) and risked all spreading my wares out on an outpost beach, because I am a legend, like Pie before me.

Soooo risky but worth it for the picture haha

Are folks getting these screenshots from XBoxes or PC?

afgavinstan

Me & Chazmano are playing on Series X. An absolute treat to the eyes.

bad_hair_day

Xbox One X here. Sometimes though, l’ll reduce the 4K image size before posting, especially if a busy page has trouble loading.

afgavinstan

I wish they'd tidy up the font used above players avatars in-game. Ruins a nice photo.

bad_hair_day

Let your artistic eyes be offended no more softbeard, assign a d-pad press to toggle the HUD or player names on or off.

Howdy, Stranger!
