Hotfix Patch 0.9.4May 28, 2025 - Community AnnouncementsHotfix Attempt: We’ve pushed a hotfix to address an issue with Crucible’s second ability, which was occasionally hitting a target multiple times in a single frame. This is one of those “ghost bugs”—hard to reproduce consistently, seemingly random, but persistent enough in real matches that we had to try something while we investigate further. Although this behavior is partially safeguarded against in our code, it's still slipping through, and we're working to identify what’s causing it. After this patch, let us know if you still encounter it. Every video or report helps us gather clues and get closer to a proper fix. We’ve also got a larger patch planned for the end of this week or the start of next. Crucible Ability 2 - Broadsides slow reduced from knots to knot slow. Augment Striker: can no longer deal damage to already broadsided enemies (indicated if they are slowed) but now increases slow amount per additional hit (allows slow to stack up) note: this augment and ability will get a bit of a face lift to compensate for this changePatch 0.9.3May 16, 2025 - Community Announcementsanother patch so soon? well Orban kings was outputting roughly 2-5 times the intended damage, and a few other things that were of issue. General Changes Ping duration on the mini-map from 2.5 seconds to 5 seconds Max pings per minute reduced from 10 to 6. you can only ping once every 10 seconds now. note: we are working on a muting function. but for now we gotta lower it. once we have a muting function in we will raise the limit for the people that can use responsible Structures Take 70% reduced damage from triggered damage sources of weapons. Like Orban Kings, Spark Generator, etc.. Shipyard and Saltcore damage reduction from minions increased from 20% to 30% Note: having minions help push is great and a corner stone of the macro game, but they shouldn't be leading to games ending all on there own to often Minions Incoming damage reduced from triggered weapon projectiles and area from 30% to 35% Note: meaning like Orban Kings area, Spark Generators sparks, the splitters from Hull Splitters. etc.. Harvester Removed the last hit bounty for killing the Harvester. Increase Empire bounty portion from 100 to 175 Returning Harvesters now provide Occo to the Empire (and thus the payout) Small Class Ships Seabloom Ability 3 - Black Lotus fixed the ability self cleansing when attached to allies. note: this reverts the change from last patch that allows the lotus to be cleansed from enemies. meaning the lotus cannot be cleanse from enemies. (will look at changes to how this ability is attached and cleansed in the future) Medium Class Ships Stingray Ability 2 - Force Blade damage from hitting terrain increased from to Large Class Ships Wither Ability 1 - Bladewall cooldown from to Augment Dominator: reduced cooldown by 25% to 15% Ability 3 - Congregate Augment Dominator: Reduced projectile speed and range increase from 45% to 30% Prism Ability 1 - Prismatic Shield duration from seconds to seconds cooldown increased from to Ability 2 - Voidfield Conversion cooldown from 28 to 33 Ability 3 - Polarity Bond Shield gain from movement reduced from per unit moved to Weapons Medium Range (yellow weapons) Spark Generators: base damage of sparks from 20% to 10% of weapon damage Longer Range (blue weapons) Orban Kings: shots between special increased from 2 to 3. Triggered Damage area changed from 25% of weapon damage per tick to 15%. Damage Tick from 0.2 to 0.25 seconds. So now deals 15% of weapon damage every 0.25 seconds. Radius now scales with Special starting at 12 and grows up to 17 units at max special. Damage overtime can no longer critical hit. Hull Splitters: splits damage per projectile reduced from 35% to 30% Trench Maker: reduce base pull power from 0.8 to 0.7 force Patch 0.9.2May 14, 2025 - Community AnnouncementsGeneral Changes The healing in the Harbor now also Cleanses.

Only for the good. When we change things for the bad, we’ll make sure to let you know beforehand. Our normal patch cycle is usually 6 weeks for regular new features and larger scale additions. With weekly to bi-weekly balance adjustments. During these first few weeks of Early Access, we are more focused on bugs, and stability issues, so patches might not be at the normal cadence. It’s important to remember that if you don’t see your feedback reflected in the patch notes, it doesn't mean it was passed over. Most things take time to build and iterate on. Just know we are reading all of your feedback and cooking up the bestest boat game ever. When you see X stands for the value something starts at and Y stands for the max value. For abilities, X is level 1 of the ability, and Y is either ability level 20 (ship level 50) or ability level 10 for the 3rd ability slot (ship level 50). For non-abilities, X is usually the start of the game, and Y is a specific time. This patch we are looking to make weapons feel more impactful, speed up the early game a tad, balance some ships, make loom coils more powerful, center extractors more valuable, and make sure games don’t drag on. Oh and we have our first Hammerhead! As of time of writing, our great monarch, King Knave I, has reached the prestigious rank of Hammerhead! All Hail King Knave! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44980602/90e25f94eac6c64851f6484b5580e2dd61a209d7.jpg General Changes Addressed an issue where players that failed a quality of service check, would get defaulted to an incorrect region, leading servers to spin up for players who should have been filtered out of that region. We currently support US east, US west, Europe, and Asia (Hong Kong). If you live far away from those regions you might still have poor connection to our servers. Please if you are experiencing issues on gameplay, either with ships stuttering, input delay, pop into our discord and make a support ticket. It helps us narrow down why these issues are persist. Early Leaver event reduced from 5 minutes to 2 minutes. If a player leaves before the 2 minutes mark of a match and becomes a leaver, the game score will not count, and no one will lose or gain MMR. Note: a player is not marked as a leaver unless they forcible abandon the game, or they don't reconnect to the server within the allocated time frame (currently 4 minutes). Time being disconnected to be marked as a leaver from 3 minutes to 4 minutes. 3 minutes was slightly too short of enough time for someone to reconnect to a match when they were actively trying to get back into a game. Leaver penalties have increased. Time banned and escalating events all increased to punish leavers more harshly. If you think you have been ban from matchmaking, and believe it was caused by a bug, make a ticket in the Discord under feedback → support-request.

BANG. PEW PEW. If you like juicy changes then we got the patch for you. FIRST UP we got an experimental feature: Ship tier shuffling. Every match whatever ships unlock after x amount of upgrades will be different. Play around with it and tell us what you think. We can change it back pretty easily so don’t light anything on fire (yet). We’re interested in finding ways to mix-up which ships are available when to increase build diversity. It’s possible we land on a mix of the old tiers where you clearly know what you will unlock and when and something like this, but it’s more of an experiment to see if shaking up ship tiers creates more interesting variety or if it just makes executing builds frustrating. Let us know! Next up: the main harbor destroys enemy projectiles. That means most abilities cannot enter the harbor area. No more harbor diving/hooking folks, ok? Anotha one: Economy tweaks/lower payout thresholds, while structures like shipyards gain new weapons and persistent backdoor protection. mo money, mo problems. Losing shipyards is more impactful this patch since you gain more powerful minions for destroying your opponents and vice versa. Anotha one: Minions receive increased health and damage when a Shipyard is destroyed, and harvesters spawn more frequently but have reduced bounties. Game lengths are long, and low minion health is usually the culprit. Super minions hopefully lead to minions only feeling difficult to kill after your shipyard has been destroyed. Anotha one: Repair provides health regeneration and upgrading no longer decreases cooldown, while reinforcement no longer provides health regeneration, but now increases mass. Health regen on repair has been something we’ve wanted to play with for awhile. Ideally, it provides more useful sustain early. Mass makes you more resistant to forces (push, pulls, etc.), which also means ships that use those forces for mobility will not always want more mass. Anotha one: Various ships across classes see ability tweaks, including reduced durations, damage adjustments, and changes to augment effects. ANOTHA ONE: Weapons undergo a major overhaul, with scaling changes to special effects, critical multipliers, and damage balancing. Several close and medium-range weapons get reworked with altered durations, damage scaling, and new mechanics for better balance. Damage and special scale better together Special no longer reduces shots to trigger Reload is buffed ….AND now you can craft the Stalker Okay we have another one: Based on feedback, we have implemented a leaver system that provides escalating bans from matchmaking for individuals who leave games in progress while also limiting their rewards. If a player leaves before the 5-minute mark, the game will be declared a draw, allowing everyone (except the leaver) to leave and re-enter the queue. This ensures that if an early leaver quits, the remaining players aren’t forced to continue a match with a disadvantage. We also put in t...Patch 0.7.5Mar 5, 2025 - Community AnnouncementsWe are deep into our next development cycle, in which we are focusing on building features that were brought up during the next fest, with our priority being disincentivizing leavers. We want to take a two-fold approach to punish leavers and provide relief for players who are stuck with an AFK player. We will announce plenty of other features in our next major patch. For now, here is a small balance patch and a fix to a scaling bug on the Dragonfly’s Adderbolt. Minions Speed scales faster as the game progresses. Top speed increased from 68 knots to 85 knots.

During Next Fest, on our demo app, Matchmaking will be live 24/7. Come stop by and play a few rounds of boats! New Features In addition to balance changes, ship overhauls, and reworked augments. This patch includes some new features we are hyped about: Rank Badges Progress through the 9 ranks, from Scrubber Shrimp to Ace, via our new Rank Badge and Class system. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44980602/eedff9fac6aab363de93d7b431bca73bc6dfa461.png Progress from 5th-1st Class (Bottom to Top below) to earn a new badge. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44980602/fe4a9be73ad9dc3bcc0b6ef36641d483fd3b3c8e.png Additionally, the top 50 players will find themselves on the Board of Aces (Leaderboard), where you rank amongst the finest The Five Seas has to offer. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44980602/c7f835180cb031a5bd39817c1cdc8f459d847bec.png Further, the Shipyard allows for viewing of all ships, their abilities, and their Augmentations while in the lobby. Along with the Shipyard, we’re granting access to Skin Crafting for the Sampan and Lurker. Craft Sampan and Lurker skins by spending Resources and Paints in the Shipyard. You will earn Resources and Paints from winning matches. Captains are now unlocked with Terns. Winning matches will reward you with Terns, which can be used to unlock Captains. We are incredibly grateful for your continued support. The best way to support us is to play during the first few days of Next Fest, so hoping to see you out there on The Five Seas! Patch Notes General Changes Saltcore weapon base damage reduced from 250 to 100. Increase the bonus damage based on targets max health from 5% to 10% Structures Remove 30 hp/s health regeneration from Tier 3 structures, Shipyard and Salt-core when powered by an Extractor Now salt-core has 5 hp/s health regeneration Minions Incoming healing and health regeneration applied to minions is reduced by 80%. Seabloom managed to avoid the healing nerfs via health regen. This change keeps it in-line with other healing. Overall Ship Changes Cooldown Recovery change to be multiplicative with diminishing returns. Cooldown Recovery increases were very weak to start then progressively over powered. It should now provide value early, while avoiding the cascade into unlimited ability spam. Since CDR is a sliding scale, the above also changes Daze (Cooldown Slow) and Silence. Due to the diminishing returns, stacking Daze and Silencing enemies should be more difficult. Note: you become silenced when your CDR goes above 200%, cooldown speed makes you more resistant to Daze and thus Silence effects. Utilities Changes Accelerator: Cooldown Recovery changed from; OLD NEW: Small Class Ships Zephyr (Tier 1) - Ability 1 - Squall Increased projectile speed from 100 to 130. No longer tracks on the way out. Still tracks on the bounce back. No longer cleanses/purges allies/enemies. Cooldown reduced from 40 seconds to 15. Speed duration chang...Sirocco is a new MOBA that's a "throwback to the simple fun" of the genreFeb 19, 2025 - PCGamesNMy colleagues giggle at the fact that I play League of Legends pretty much every night. 'Why do you torture yourself?' they ask, a question for which I have no answer. MOBAs - and multiplayer games as a whole - are somewhat synonymous with toxicity, and it feels like I can't get through a game of League without someone hurling slurs in the chat. Sirocco is hoping to change that, stripping back the grind and focusing entirely on building out characters (or, well, battleships) and having fun. With a brand-new demo debuting at Steam Next Fest, now's the perfect time to pull out of the ranked queue and try something new. Read the rest of the story...
