Naval Battles: What could work better in the demo

[Sir Beane]

Boarding...in my view could be quicker or better implemented.

As it stands, I click on a ship, my ship then takes the long route. Then when it pulls up, there are about 3 or 4 salvos before our ships ever actually get together to board.

I don't know about you, but 1-2 salvos is enough to make a ship consider surrender, so the fact you can fire once, twice or four times before actually getting to boarding seems silly to me. It may be realistic, but it eliminates boarding as any kind of viable option.

Just my two cents.

It's not even that realistic. Many ships wouldn't have risked a point blank barrage into a ship that close to it in case they blew it up, set it on fire, or dropped one of its masts onto themselves. If that many salvos could be fired before boarding then pirates would have had a much harder time of it. Hopefully it goes faster in the proper game .
