Impression from the playing of this Add-On Опции

[Rad]

I think I can say I am a frequent player of PoTC and especially the game with various versions of Builds and Modpacks. Now I started to play for the first time your AlexusB´s Add-On, so that I can do some comparing the both of it. As I can feel and experience from my short playing, both mods are completely different.
The community of PoTC modders at PiratesAhoy is completely open and anybody can become a modder and almost anybody can put into game his/her mods and ideas which I think isn´t good system because various people has various tastes and opinions on various matters what about the game concerns and I think all the quality of Builds and Modpacks suffer by that quite significantly. By my opinion there almost don´t exist any conception how this game and modding should look like in the future and what are the main goals of all this modding. Speaking it a little differently it seems to me all this modding of Builds and Modpacks don´t have any concrete conception and everything proceed spontaneusly and in an uncoordinately way. When I play the PoTC with Builds I play all the time the same game with stupid plot about the Black pearl. The game is still the same, fortunately with many good improvements, but anyway it is all the time the same game.

On the other hand when I started to play this AlexusB´s Add-On, I immediately have felt I am in completely new and different game. I am very glad the game is hard for playing and despite of that well balanced ( as I can see so far) and that your community of modders is somehow close (I think) because the more modders do mods for this game the more bugs and strange ideas are implemented into the game that are anyway discarded in the end after some time. I like your new music, interface, very advanced system of enhancing of heroes and so on. Only it seems to me the game is somehow unstable and vulnerable for crashing at least at my computer. Mybe it is caused by combination of my English version of the game and your Russian Add-On, I don´t know. But I think I am able to settle up with that. What I like very much here is playing cards and cubs ( poker system) in the taverns for money. It is really great performed and designed and it is some good way to get money at lest in the early stadium of playing. I am amazed because of extent of jungles of island where I almost lost at Hispaniola. And the maps are very good aids here too. I can´t say much more so far because I am playing only very short time so far but this Add-On looks very professionally. So, I think I will return here after receiving some my further experiences.

Alex, I put here again some historical datas what about range of cannons concerns. There is English ordnance from middle of 17the century and in table second there are the max ranges of cannons in paces. One pace is about 0.75 meter, so you can see very easily from it how those ranges were and as I wrote several times here from about 1000 to 1550 meters.

And not only that, but long barrel cannons shoot here rather as carronades or some mortars, the balisitc trajectory is very high and I think it should be much more flat and visually these shooting cannons looks as though they wouldn´t any force of penetration.

I am not able to change anything now because I am in the game already. But I think this option in the game is only cosmetic one and not any substantial change of ranges.

By the way, what this warn: 0% under my name represents? It means that I am somehow troublesome when I politely express my opinion?

What about officer concerns. I kicked out him but he didn´t disappeared from the passanger menu. But maybe I did it somehow wrongly so, I will check it again.
