Not enjoying the game with fire.

You just don't know how to manage it yet. You use the word impossible. I would say practice.

It's just like when they added expanded ship damage and all the solo sloopers thought it would be the end of the world.

As a solo slooper myself, I can say that after a week, it was business as usual.

Fire is already part of my repertoire. Just gotta prioritize and pay attention.

Doing the fleets and skelly ships are easier with fire. If they're on fire, even a little bit, they stop shooting. When they go for the ram toss one over on them.

Me and my kid took the event fleet down in a duo sloop. It was easier than the older fleet battles imo

@scrubber89 it's very fair, everyone has access to fire

I always wonder to myself where the people who make these types of posts are finding so much confrontation with other players or even PvE. I solo for hours and a lot of times don't run into any kind of issues. Usually I'm the one trying to find a fight and that is almost impossible anymore.

When it comes to fire, it's not too difficult to manage it's just different. Some people figure it out quicker than others. Just like everything else that was "too difficult" when added into the game, players will adapt.

@scrubber89 hit them first. That's what I would do.

If you've been killed and your boats on fire, you deserve to lose.

Just remember fire should be the last concern

Adding fire in game is just one step to make this game more and more PVP oriented it is no more PVP/PVE game. More players are entering game just to chase someone on sloop and kill after it repeatedly spawn killing.

Developers should be more attentive for new pirates, not hardcore players.

I am PL for a long period of time and the state of cases is still like it was year ago, you pushed to play PVP, or if you want to escape PVP you will spend 40 minutes running from brig on your sloop. And it brings no fun at all. I even don't want to speak about xbox opt out in adventure.

Sea of thieves gives no chance to make mistake, for people who like challenge it is benefit, for people who want to relax it is torture.

So just let's make it clear - Sea of thieves is PVP and not friendly for new players

@venvip1983 Why on earth should Sea of Thieves be designed for people to relax? This is a pirate fantasy game, not a yacht simulator.

This game is primarily PVE or PVP based on the person. Some days I attack every person I see and take their stuff, some days I go on voyages and work on my commendations.

Honestly this blows my mind. A "Pirate Legend" who wants the game to be relaxing with no challenge.

Flameheart is gonna roast you.

I heard your point of view.

But honestly there are a lot of people who just want to make their voyage in relaxed manner. SoT as developers are saying PVPVE game, but being honest it is PVP just without frag counter.

Reading comments of people who advise improve skills and bla-bla-bla... makes me feel as if I am on forum of Pro-Gamers Champions and casual gamers have no rights to share their way of thinking. SoT it is not battle simulator.

Developers are trying to bring new gamers into their game. But for new comers facing unfriendly society of gamers in session will give frustrating feeling about this game.

@venvip1983 but fire is great vs skellies(forts), and skellies ships which are both PvE, with fire update its super easy to clear normal forts, and sink fleets...fire makes a massive difference, also in PvP the fire does not really do enough damage to really impact the outcome unless on low hp, you can pretty much ignore it for a long period...

@scrubber89 Dont worry about the Fire. Just patch your holes and keep good fruit. Fire should be the last thing you try to Fix

@scrubber89 Sounds like Fire Isnt the Issue. With or without fire if you and crew mate die and enemy boards ship, your chances are slim to none. Fire is just a distraction. Ive noticed lately a lot of ships i kill would rather whine and complain instead of fight back. The more you fight and engage in these battles the better your choice making will be. Be more aware of your surroundings and get ships to fight your style of fight, not theirs.

There is too much to manage in this game now. Its gone from a fun pirate adventure into a pirate simulator. It is no longer fun for me and my 3 crews. We have all left the game.

On the contrary, fire is a perfect counter against gunpowder. It's opened new doors to strategize how you fight players. I love lighting up player masts and watching their ship explode with flames

I find fire a good thing and im a solo player mostly.

Ive snuck on ships and set their ship alight like an assassin.

When im fighting a fire galleon i usually leave one hole in my hull so i can quickly douse and manage everything else, its a good strategy. Quicker than pulling the lever, buys you extra time.

Do this and see if it helps and maybe you will come to appreciate the mechanic a bit more.

@scrubber89 only skelly fleets use fire, and fire really isnt that hard to deal with. i recomend watching tips and tricks videos relating to fire, sometimes it can even be usefull to set your own ship on fire

@wowarchershirou you can also use them in kraken fights when the kraken blockes the lower deck, you just set fire to the lower deck and then you can still bucket water out of the ship by just throwing it on the flames
