Improvements on the Horizon!Feb 25, 2025 - Community AnnouncementsFORTUNE SMILES UPON YOU! A stagnant sea is a dead one. Alas, worry not, the Maelstrom waters remain ever-flowing and ripe with robust violence! The winds of change bring more than just salt-stung eyes - the team works with their every breath, and today they announce these major updates coming soon. Hot Fix Breakdown Matchmaking Improvements: We’ve optimized matchmaking to significantly reduce wait times and improve synchronization of players within the same power pool. We have fully rebuilt the source code to make matchmaking move quickly and more efficiently. Teams will now be better aligned with matching power levels for a more balanced experience. Boat Shake Fix: The boat shake issue caused by Dwarves and Orcs has been addressed. While it may still occur in rare edge cases, it will now correct itself within 1-2 seconds. UPCOMING UPDATES Serpent’s Rest (NEW Map!) What was once the lair of the Vile Serpent, a terror to all misfortunate sailors, is now nothing more than the beast’s watery tomb. The serpentine monstrosity is believed to have perished mysteriously during The Great Sundering. But the true danger lies within the heart of these putrid waters: a colossal maelstrom, a vortex of destruction. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/32270695/58aa44cbc3da3a08a8c5d6010075374743928468.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/32270695/8e2621dee2da59061f9ad098def0dba5fca47eb1.png The Dockyard The docks are ready!

From the Ashes! The Phoenix Empire rises, born anew and prepared to reduce all in their path to ash. The Phoenix Empire has new remastered boats as well as new skins coming soon! Grand Battles on the Horizon! You’ve come to wage war, and it’s war you shall wage. The choice of how is now yours to make. The new Custom Lobby allows for you to create epic 15-player matches, with up to 5 teams of 3 players each. Gather your friends and jump into the action, where you can team up with full squads or even mix things up with bots for a dynamic experience. Not only that, but we’ve added the ability for two players to spectate the battles live – giving you the perfect opportunity to watch the chaos unfold without directly participating. You can choose the map you want to play on, including some of our most popular old seasonal maps, bringing a whole new layer of strategy and nostalgia to your custom matches. The possibilities are endless, rally your crew, and sail to battle! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/32270695/bdb6e6f22a78fd3ee6442dd575d2aa0e49f01944.png Improving the Voyage The journey ahead bears fruit!
