@@Denigrate123 I think it's a way to give orders without shouting at the top of their lungs, so it seems that every time Splatt clicks certain prompts it does a specific whistle, and I think they cue up so sometimes it seems like if the whistle is just going on and on. It's pretty annoying XD
We have re-balanced the Midshipman difficulty level, making it much more accessible to first time sailors and a good way to get to grips with the mechanics of the game. New version now live on Steam, so please give the game another go :)
Thanks for the great video, here are some good tips : “Avoid combat with Warships and Pirates when on a 3rd Rate Ship" “Rest your crew at night. The more crew employed at night, the faster the morale drops” “Intercept ships belonging to your own nation or the Dutch to receive free stores” “Promote your officers in the Wardroom and get additional ships to command” “Continually train your crew to improve Event efficiency and the Ship’s speed” “Use the Bell station on the ship to get all available crew to the Sails or Guns” “Boost morale by increasing food rations at the Galley Station” “If you intercept too many Dutch ships, they will declare war on you and dispatch a warship to attack you” “Purchase promotion points for Gold, only at your Home Port” "Use ships in your squadron to complete your Admiralty Order when you can't complete it in time" "Select TAB to see progress of other players" "Jettison excess cargo to make room for new stores by clicking on the stores in the hull of the ship"
I feel like the ship and crew management mechanics were something very much missed in Sid Meier's Pirates. Maybe some day someone makes a worthy successor to it, maybe even based on this game (though right now it looks more like a PoC than a game tbh).
I like how it looks like cosmonautica. Would be cool if it shows movement though maybe on a future update. Like the background rolling out when you sail.
Is it just me or is the high pitched whistling sound extremely aggravating??? I like the video otherwise. The whistle is just so annoying, is there a setting for that to be turned off or at least lower the volume of that noise?
27/28 comments are extremely negative and low-key rude. the whistling is something they should look at sure, y'all don't need to go so hard on splat, all the issues y'all having with the game aren't even his fault. best way to say what y'all did in not such a rude and negative way: game needs more time to develop
uhm. keelhauling is NOT whipping. it is throwing a length of rope from one side underneath the boat and then tying the criminal to it and then dragging him down underneath the boat and up on the other side. this could mean a death sentence since the bottom of the ships are covered in barnacles and will cut and slice the sailor. infecting his wounds and getting slammed against the hull. that there is giving a lashing
@@everysinglesoldier3724 Why try then hassle with refunding when we can watch a video and get the same feeling? That's why written reviews and game journalism are pointless.
and now i feel insulted from the 13:53 part also 1 episode of this is enough i know there are to few pirate/sailing games but this one just dont cut it for me
@@everysinglesoldier3724 Not when you're watching the video and not playing the game yourself. Turning IT off means turning Splatt off alongside it which is the main reason people are here in the first place.
@@everysinglesoldier3724 Here's a tip: Have a clear vision for your game and make it the best you can from that, and don't take feedback from random TH-cam comments haha.
omg what is with that whistling? What is it supposed to add to gameplay? I had to stop halfway through because it's like my ear canals are being sandblasted.
That &#$@ing whistle is driving me crazy!
that whistling is why im clicking off. I cant deal
For real. Is that part of the game? This looks interesting, but I don't know if I could play it with the constant annoying whistle.
So glad that its not just me that finds it bloody annoying :/
I almost broke my already broken speaker thinking twas its fault, poor lil thing :(

Dude, you find the goldest of indie games. I can't believe what I'm seeing and enjoy the creative ideas these developers are making.

Not trying to be a jerk but that game makes me want to play Sid Meier's Pirates!
Which is actually a good game
@@fixer10091994 That it is. The bright colors remind me of Pirates!
I just want someone to make a game like that @_@

Well good job playing this, I personally couldn't myself. Looks like a juggling simulator. yuk.
Doesn't even look like the ship is moving though :/
It has potential but needs some work

13:55 cool and all but that not the french flag. These are dutch colors flying...

You can turn the whistle off :)
Thanks for the video Splatt!
The most important part of the ship is the one with the barrel saying RUM.
The most interesting thing about this game is the bloody shark
i'd love to see the developers' reactions reading these comments.
Benyed All feedback is gold !
Good comment on the timing, will make Midshipman 20% slower :)
Good God. The constant whistles. F that
If they'd have done it something like Bomber Crew it would've been pretty cool, but as it is, meh
(edit) All the whistle comments xD
Splat. That is not the French flag, that's the flag of The Netherlands.

There is an option to turn the whistle off, not for everyone :)

mag ik de eerste van ons VOC-matrozen zijn die zegt "gekoloniseerd"?
This game looks like a pain in the ass!
I'm guessing these devs do not realize just how brutal of a punishment keelhauling was, or how rarely it actually occurred
Updated Ver 0.20.5 now Live on Steam, updated Midshipman level, much easier :)
This was on my Steam wishlist.
Was.
Try it !

@@cleanliving1612 Because sometimes its best to form your own opinion ?
and now i feel insulted from the 13:53 part
also 1 episode of this is enough i know there are to few pirate/sailing games but this one just dont cut it for me
Happy to take suggestions etc :)
This game looks like a slideshow :(
The ship looks like it doesn't move
Fairly certain you didn't need to do all those little things.
Hope this is a good successor to Sid Meier's Pirates. Looks ho-hum so far, feels pretty mobile, not great graphics, dull combat, etc.
that whistling though.. screw that noise. Looks alright but that sound? Nope. Im outta here. See you on the next vid
Turning it off is an option :)
@@everysinglesoldier3724 Not when you're watching the video and not playing the game yourself. Turning IT off means turning Splatt off alongside it which is the main reason people are here in the first place.
Can’t please everyone all the time 👍🏻
wow this wistle sounds really hurt in my ears :D
This a flash game??
JDM12983 no
I love it.
An age-of-sail FTL has potential.
Yeah, but this one is shit

Bannerlords: Waterworld
there are only 8 guns
More
The game looks interesting but the whistling makes this game not for me. I get they used whistles in thy Navy. It’s just too much for me in a game.
Edward Coe Can turn the whistle off
the constant whistling is annoying AF
You can turn it off !
Sodding whistling! I could not watch it past 9 mins...
You can turn it off !
@@everysinglesoldier3724 Yes. I did. By switching off the video.
omg what is with that whistling? What is it supposed to add to gameplay? I had to stop halfway through because it's like my ear canals are being sandblasted.
Everything about this game looks and sounds absolutely awful
Thanks for playing this one so I dont have to. That was not even fun to watch.
Obnoxious whistling simulator
Mamono You can turn it off
@@everysinglesoldier3724 thank you. That is probably the best feature in the game. 😆
Lmao this shit looks terrible how can they even release this. Looks like a 1997 LEGO game
That is a terrible comparison
