Updates

  • On to the Next! - Players can now discard unwanted voyages within the Quick Menu. No more having to propose them on the Captain's Table and cancel them!
  • Did You Hear That? - When you are transmitting voice over your mic, an icon will now appear on screen to let you know that you are doing so.
  • Stories Untold - Players will now come across more Lore books on their adventures.
  • Give and Take - Resource Crates which are being held by players can now have items put into or removed from them.
  • Distressed Chickens - The unsettling sound of a squawking chicken whilst caged is now... more bearable.
  • Music of Legends - The musical sting that plays when entering the Legendary Hideout has been updated.
  • Updated Voice Lines - Legendary Tavernkeeper Louise, the Pirate Lord and the Order of Souls NPC Olivia now have new ghostly-sounding voice lines.
  • Visual Effects - Improved multiple VFX of weapon impact to grass terrain, and cannon impact to water.
  • Icons - Updated the Chests UI to make it clearer that players can scroll through the filter tabs. Icons are now also prettier, bigger and generally better.
  • Out Of Stock - Shipwrights and Weaponsmiths will no longer stock the eight cosmetic pieces which weren’t visually distinct enough.
  • Launch Crew Eye of Reach - We kept it in for an extra week due to its popularity, but this time-limited item has now been removed from the weapon shops!

Player Settings

  • Colour Blind Accessibility - There is now a High Contrast 'X Marks the Spot' option in the Accessibility Settings. Enabling this will change the red X on the map to white with a black outline, which we understand will be easier to view for red-green colour blind pirates.
  • Aim Sensitivity Slider - Player can customise their controller and mouse sensitivity specifically when aiming with each ranged weapon. The Blunderbuss, Flintlock Pistol and Eye of Reach each have their own slider to adjust.
  • Shhh! - Additional muting options have been added to "My Crew". These now include the ability to mute voice, text chat and non-verbal phrases separately.

Performance Improvements

  • Whilst on the ship and in multi-ship scenarios, performance has been improved.
  • Server optimisations to reduce latency.
  • Frame rates while streaming islands have been improved.
  • Improved gunplay in high-latency network conditions.
  • Multiple server and client crash fixes.

  • Fixed areas on Smugglers Bay and Plunder Valley where Bounty Skeletons were not spawning.
  • Pirates should no longer lose their clothing upon respawning after death.
  • Changing your bucket at the equipment chest will make the water spill out instead of just vanishing. So be careful not to flood your ship!

  • Barrels of Plenty no longer disappear when respawning onto your ship after death.
  • Improved skeleton movement in Skeleton Forts.
