You know you add to this useless clutter each time you make replies like this right?
Presumably, if you have the budget. I imagine they’ll be kinda expensive, seeing as they’re automatic
Probably something so you can put 2 next to each other
He gets evicted and has to sit on a raft if the island is claimed
New players probably aren’t going to use the server browser all too much initially, and players that have played for a bit will probably realize that they get filtered when they don’t use the browser.
As for potential trolls who go onto clanless servers on purpose to screw over people, tbh yeah that could be a big problem, but the current playerbase, even when the update happens, probably isn’t big enough for that to be insanely common. But even if there is enough trolls for every server the troll relies on there actually being players trying to do either of the 2 harvest quests which just isn’t guaranteed. They’d probably be waiting around for hours, and if they leave to do something else to occupy their time they won’t get to see the troll get pulled off so it’s just kinda pointless.
This isn’t perfect some people do have loads of patience and others just enjoy the idea of their wall blocking people from doing quests, but I don’t imagine it’ll be too common. Regardless I do think clanless players will probably be able to go through the invisible barriers just because them being invulnerable to clan players on claimed islands is kinda pointless if they aren’t.
A clan with 25.000 or more infamy
Makes sense
Thoughts regarding this update's influence on the ship meta
The ship meta will be funneled
With the recent additions of placeable culverins&mortars that automatically defends your claimed island from ships, I have begun to think that the ship meta will be funneled torwards speed even more than before.
Why?
Because a fast ship will be able to avoid culverin and mortar shots from claimed islands, something necessary for island raiding (as depending on their range, they may or may not be able to fire at your ship if you’re right next to them), but also because the increase in claimed islands (caused by the changes in how claiming infamy is toggled) will also make it more common to come across them.
So while that may be the case already, it will be much more necessary to invest into speed than it is now.
A question to fellow players
What do you think would be the best siege weaponry to have on your ship (in order to raid islands)?
Considering the additions mentioned above, I’m placing my bet on powerful howitzers.
How I wish ships were actively being balanced too…
another cannon fist nerf I see…

close enough, welcome back crimson crescent
Tidecliff Isle looking awesome!
Ngl it might just be cause it’s nighttime for me rn, but the sun and it’s glare in that image is genuinely hurting my eyes a little
Sorry to ruin the fun, but that is from a patreon chat members personal build world! I know because I recognize the character. This isn’t an AO screenshot.
You can also tell from the building style too tbh
and surface material especially the tree’s
