Although I get that the VOIP is what people may play this game for, it can be extremely annoying when everyone just spams songs from their phones into their mics. And yes I know I cant mute them but it just annoys me that I can't talk to anyone without them just being extremely loud.

The land battles are not great as the spawns are really far away from any combat and it takes forever to "run" over there just to fire and miss constantly with your enemy. However the 150 player servers are amazing

The naval battles were the highlight for me, as I loved sailing in a little gunboat charging into the French fleet with my crew all getting hyped, just for us to get destroyed by a full broadside. We then were picked up by a friendly lifeboat and we attempted to board an enemy gunboat all whilst screaming and chanting. It was hilarious.

Overall the game is just way too clunky, and it really ruins it for me. The bigger ships seem fun but they are just so irritating as your character seems to get stuck on everything. The big cannons are infuriating as loading a shot is instant but pushing the canon takes like 10 seconds. Also steering the ship is awful as there are no visual clues and its either full speed or nothing at all. The game is just too clunky and feels more like someone's home project than a fully fledged game.
