I ran out of time for testing this. So far I found the following:Ok, I stopped last night when entering San Juan. That is where I bought the corvette. Here it is. You are now as far into the game as I am.
- Apparently tradeHigh is NOT the culprit
- I thought perhaps it was because ship upgrades were being included in the price, but when I tried to sell a ship without upgrades, she still sells for too much
Will have to continue looking into this next week.
Well, those encounters should have flagships.Yes I do.
The encounters I run into while direct sailing between islands are one of the most fun features I enjoy in this game, be sure of it.
I'm glad to see you enjoying that feature so much! I wasn't sure if anyone might even want to use it when we put it in there.I use iron man mode just to don't get any spyglass information. Recognizing flags is not that easy, depending on sight and direction of wind. And I really like those surprises, when something I thought being peaceful reveals being a blood thursty enemy squadron - just because I misjudjed the flag. I really like it.
As I think I may have said before, I always liked the idea of it for those very reasons you mentioned. Never have the time to actual play like that though.
