And if ya don’t want my flail,
better shake that mighty tail! Aw yeah!
So when trying to pass unnoticed esp in large pirate areas I’ve been diving underwater. What confuses me is that pirates can fire cannonballs that actually can hit me underwater, whereas they probably shouldn’t even be able to see me far enough under, as well as shouldn’t be able to propel cannonballs through water the same as if it were air.
Most pirate areas have cannons or gun turrets that have a very long range. Next time it happens pop out of the water to see if there’s a giant barrel with a gun pointing at you :-)
Though that’s pretty obvious that there’s long range turrets..and not the problem I was talking about.
The problem I was describing is the fact that they can get me underwater when that’s not possible realistically because of water density. I find it really weird and annoying whenever I’m swimming.
a pirate could be underwatter acting as a “spotter” for the pirate that operating the canon
That’s true. Also bullets from small arms would be rendered fully ineffective upon entering the water. (And while we’re at it players shouldnt be able to swim in heavy armor.)
I don’t think many games take real world physics into account like this though :P
And while we’re implementing realism, lets also make it so that you can only remain underwater for a couple of minutes before you run out of oxygen and start losing HP.
and no more magic based classes or attacks.
in a more helpful vein though TC I would seriously stop thinking if something is realistic or not in this game and rather whether or not it was intended by the devs, if its a bug report it and they will fix it eventually, otherwise you just have to deal.

and they are connected Via Teamspeak/Ventrilo/Skype and talk to each other..

Haven’t you noticed they use oxygen masks?
Yes, but WHERE ARE THE TANKS ?
They aren’t oxygen masks, they’re removable gills.
