Known Issues - January 5, 2012

• Two coats available for male Pirates through the Tailors on Tortuga, Cuba, and Padres de Fuego are displaying in the catalog as "Error, no name". These coats may also turn up in loot dropped by defeated enemies.

Good! Glad to see they've made some progress in that respect.

Good to see fixes. Still missing key issues though. I don't think i have to mention them anymore. But still disappointing that the known issues never show things that are known issues reported by the players...

This was on the release notes on December 14th: Known issues

• Sea Charms, Cannon Rams, and Navigational Charts may sometimes not give the proper skill boosts when applied to new Ship Customization Rigging.

They did write it with a twist to make it not look as bad as it is on the game. Did they just ignore this because there has been release notes and it was never included on the fixes or known issues.

Charms, rams and rigging have all been working as they should for me. If the given boosts cause my skill points to go over 5, the description won't accurately depict how long the skill lasts, but it still lasts as long as it should. For example, I have 5 points on Take Cover: when I'm on my war brig with Defense I rigging, Take Cover lasts about 22 seconds, but the description says it lasts only 20 seconds.

I get 22 seconds on my take cover with and without defense rigging. So check again in a different ship without rigging. It's not just about the time written in the description because that has always been off. If it worked than I would get at least 30 seconds on my full sail because I have a rumrunners chart +3 and speed rigging +2 on one of my war sloops.
