Since knots are a unit of speed knots per second would be a unit of acceleration. So every second moving at 12 knots per second your speed would increase by 6.2 meters/second, so they'd be pulling 0.67Gs of forward acceleration. Not entirely unheard of for a human construction, but no way is a sailing ship doing that.

The idea of gradually upgrading and customizing your ship sounds fun… in a better game without max level players one shotting newbs.

Having fun with some aspects of the game is all well and good. That's the point anyway. Being able to play with friends (regardless of how much interaction) helps keep things fun. But some fun doesnt equal a good game, and it doesnt equal a full experience. The game is what it is, so if its fun for some that's great, but Ubisoft deserves no praise for this. The only support I would give is for the shanties. Sean Dagher and La Nef deserve every bit of praise as true professionals and the original AC shantymen (I dont know who else sings shanties in the game beyond them).

With its quality and microtransactions, anything other than free to play is a bad joke

After playing games like Black Flag, Sea Dogs, and Sid Myer's Pirates!, this is a pretty-looking milk run simulator with microtransactions. I'd rather vomit in my hands and clap.

It's sea of thieves with all the good parts removed and replaced with lazy design

Honestly looking at the gameplay this doesn't seem that bad. I looked at the price tho so I'm not gonna buy it without a serious sale.

What really hurts. Is that they had a completely good system of ship movement. AC Black flag. If they had've improved that and then worked on the combat to provide functionality for multiship crews it would've been at least worth it.

Imma be real, with how long this game has been in development hell, anyone who thought it would be good is morons. I knew this game was gonna be bad when they announced they restarted development for a third time. Name me one game that's suffered as long, if not longer, that came out even decent.
