They really just need to make one for the age of sail where I can have a 32 gun frigate and boarding combat. Where is my super realistic sim of that type of combat?

Yeah, a little bit. The problem is the enemy AI was sort of garbage and controlling just one ship was pretty boring. You could play against other people, but controlling the ships was so difficult that boarding just became easier.

That was my experience at least. I am sure there are a couple folks on the internet who figured it out.

Yes, full ship control and boarding combat. I just want to be behind the wheel like in AC4, but not have the combat be total shit and arcade style.

I do, however I have periods off which is when you see me post. I usually get work done, make worksheets, grade, etc...so having the background noise is nice.

The whole point of the naval battles was to controll the fleet. The biggest problem with the TW ships is how floaty everything is once you get the hang of ho to drift and doing spin broadsides and basically removed any point of actually boarding when playing against non-AI

When in doubt, just believe in yourself and press buttons

I had a lot of fun with it in AC4, sure it was the arcade mini-game kind of fun but fun nevertheless. A full-fledged, deeper game that still maintains third-person/fps control of the ship captain could be pretty sick.

sounds like you should just play boatsmoba - it even has dictated roles for all the boats like "BB, DD, CV, CL, CA"

I don't think I can play boatsmoba until they have a class for 100-0 burst assassins.

That is what I want in so many ways. I have literally zero idea how they make gameplay out of it that would be interesting, but I want it. The dream of being the commander of a single, super complex warship has existed since 1937 when C. S. Forester wrote The Happy Return. The problem is that no one has figured out how to make issuing commands in real time interesting gameplay and not feel dull.
