    I only have 245 hours and still learning. I look forward to the wipe. Clean slate and now I understand outpost placement and the other ten thousand things I needed to know but didnt' when I started.

    Makes no sense to wipe, but then let high ranks keep books, upgrades, rare woods, etc. The devs originally said the wipe was designed to make the game more "new-player friendly" by taking away the advantages of experienced players. Now they find the wipe is unpopular, so compromise begins. They should just merge servers & be done with it.

    • @kairos4486

      I get your point, but I think the safe chest isn't too overpowered, considering how it only lets you take certain items in limited numbers.

    The rank survived. I was craft level 50. Now it shows no level at all? On another screen (somewhere) I saw craft level 7. Craft XP shows infinity. How does a 50 become a 7? I'm lost.
    Ok I found the answer. 7 is the new max craft number. You find it on page " Buildings and Crafting". Top of page in a little circle. Also can hold mouse over your rank and craft level will show up.

    • @kairos4486
      @kairos4486  24 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Last I checked, they tend to wipe every six months or so. You'll lose your ships, ports, and warehouse items, but you'll get to keep your XP, rank, service medals, and investments. There's also a chest you can put a few valuable items in to carry over to the next season.
      The seasonal wipes were not popular when they came out, but it is what it is, and I think they're here to stay now. I recommend not bothering with the largest, most expensive ships, as they're much too hard to replace after a wipe.

    Cheers Kairos.
    I've heard a few rumors around lately on my clan Discord (and some screenshots) discussing the developers' intentions to delete the war and peace servers, where I've been hanging out along with many others for I can't even recall how long.
    I wanted to both ask if you know anything of this, as well as what your opinions are. In honesty, as much as I enjoy this game, myself as well as a huge number on the PvE server have stated that, if we're forced to the F2P server, that's it for us, seeing as that environment is not the one we paid for all those years ago.

    • @kairos4486
      @kairos4486  ปีที่แล้ว

      I have not heard anything regarding the deletion of the war and peace servers myself. I've never been in direct contact with the NA devs, so your guess is as good as mine.
      I do, however, suspect that they would prefer to be rid of the old PvE and PvP servers if they could, though that's only a suspicious on my part. If they are smart, they will eventually make the old servers available to players to purchase (like in the old days) but leave the Caribbean Server available as free to play. But honestly, I have no idea what the devs have planned for the future of the old servers.

  • @CMDR-Cody

    I am getting into this game now, are there any DLCs that are worth their pricetag? They seem lackluster and too expensive at first glance.

    • @kairos4486
      @kairos4486  ปีที่แล้ว

      Welcome to Naval Action. As a totally new player, the only DLC I'd recommend is the Hercules. It is an excellent ship to learn how to play with, and the most reasonably priced. I'd hold off on any other DLCs until you're sure you'll stay invested in the game.

    • @jslice5967
      @jslice5967 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      As a new player you SHOULD NOT buy ANY DLC because you won't be able to use them until you reach a certain rank. 20hrs in and I still have a ways to go before I can use the Hercules.

      If you have the chest them I'm guessing they did indeed change it. I don't think it will disappear, though I do recommend you screenshot it just in case something goes wrong and you need to get compensation.

    • @brads.260
      @brads.260 ปีที่แล้ว

      @kairos4486 Thanks for replying man, sorry for sounding negative with my first comment. I've been enjoying your videos and have just been going down the rabbit hole of NA videos from years back and it's just always the same sentiment of the devs did something that went against what the player base enjoyed. Also, 2 separate server that only people who bought the game can access, that just doesn't make sense because f2p doesn't even have the option to buy access to the war server, and it just separates what little player base exists. The community is one of the best aspects of the game though, extremely helpful most of the time.

    • @kairos4486
