Hmmm apparently max party size is 3. Unless you can still join same lobby, FG Friday is out

So, after playing the BETA over the weekend, I can honestly say I had so much fun playing this.
 
The starting section seemed to drag a bit and was almost turning me off the experience until I youtubed how to collect fucking wood 😂
 
Once you get your own bigger ship, that's when the fun starts. I can only imagine how fun playing with friends will be. An FG Friday with a bunch of us scallywags ruling the high seas could be glorious.
 
Did anyone else play? Also, does anyone else think they're going to pay the hefty price tag for the console version?

Had my reservations about this game due to the amount of delays. It's not what I was hoping deep down that it would be, but it's better than expected. Land movement annoyed me a bit the first maybe hour of playing, then I progressed far enough to where I could get a proper ship and some cannons and boy... This game is epic. Combat is actually challenging, progression actually feels like you've worked for it and properly earned the upgrades you get. I think on saturday I spent a good 10 hours playing the demo and 3 of those were me just working to get the best ship available in that demo. There's so much to explore, plunder to be had, upgrades to farm for and ways to earn silver and infamy that I have to admit, I fell in love with this game and by the time the beta ended last night I was pissed at myself for not having been on the ball earlier in the week to get the demo on the 8th to maximize my playtime 😅

Hell I only fucking found the black market 2 hours before servers went down on sunday I was that busy burning every port to the ground.
The few things I didn't attempt was mainly the pvp events and also the sea monster event. I did try going after elite captains and also the ghost ships but it's near impossible while solo. (hint hint nudge nudge people, get on the ball!) Did have anamerican budy join me on sunday for a bit but he was hours and hours of progression behind me, it does seem like quests completed while in a group counts for everyone though, as he was completing his early quests I still got silver for them, not sure if I would have gotten infamy as well as I had already reached the max infamy rank available in the demo.
 
Overall I have to admit I quite enjoyed the grind to get better ships, weapons and armor and finding combinations of these that worked for me. It's time consuming but this can be sped up in a group as you can send your friends materials, guns, blueprints and all kinds of things. So if anyone is ahead of the pack you could help out others that find the grind tedious or simply can't get the required items to progress due to enemies being too hard for them to fight.
 
As for how many can play together I've seen both 3 and 5 mentioned and the menu in the demo looked like it had room for more than 3, so I'm not 100% sure. But, I'm willing to bet you can get more of your friends on the same server and then split into several smaller groups but still take on elite captains, ghost ships, sea monsters and bounties all together as any player ship can do this without being in the same group as you. Pvp also seems to be off unless you go for the pvp events so sorry @Diddums you wont be able to ram everyone to try and sink them if you end up playing this 🤣 
 
Honestly very excited for the full release, I've seen their planned roadmap as well and there seems to be quite a bit of content they intend to add in so I can see myself spending many an hour on the open sea plunderin' fer booty!
 
 
 
Yo, ho, haul together

Unfortunately I did not get round to playing it, I ended up trying the new FFVII demo which has got me all excited for it now.
 
That said I have seen various tik tok video's and a review or 2 and it sounds like the game has gone down quite well, the stumbling block for most people though will be the price tag as I think to buy through the store it's like £70 I think?
 
 
Just looking about online you can get a physical copy for £53 if you know where to look so that's not so bad! That said I am going to be paying £60 for FF at the end of this month and I quite want to get Helldivers 2 as well so justifying a 3rd game at a time when I'm trying to clear some credit card debt may not be feasable.
 
How many can you have in a party / lobby?

No but its close. Her name is Marion

Titanus was born into a poor family. 6 years after his birth, his father was killed by soldiers whom were left to run rampant among the villages of the kingdom.

Titanus vowed to protect his mother and get his revenge upon the tyrant that set those human monsters loose on the people.

He joined the Fighter's Guild aged 7 and worked hard to get into peak physical health. By age 17, he had fought his way through the entire Guild and grew a name for himself.

Although known as the champion of his town at the age of 23, the people of the wider kingdom had only heard stories of the warrior named Titanus.

It was time to set off on his journey to avenge his father and make the tyrant rue the day he set those animals upon the kingdom.
 
--------------
 
No more than 3 days journey from his village, Titanus arrives in the town of Finglas and sees a group of horses outside the tavern bearing the sigil of the King. After a decade of training, this is moment he's waited for. His revenge starts now.
Titanus jumps off his horse but lands wrong on his ankle. A sharp pain tore through him as his bone pierces skin. On the ground helpless, the kingsmen exit the tavern and spot him.
Laughing and joking, they approach. Titanus watches as they loot his supplies from the horse unable to stop them. Another sharp stab of pain as a blade enters his chest, just below his heart.
Titanus lies there, vision fading as the sound of laughter becomes more distant.
