Game is getting funner now that people are using strategies instead of sailing around amok shooting.
NO there is no manual aim nor will it help, you have to try and work as a team and capture the bases and resources. First team to 2k wins the round.
3 ship limit each battle, you sink you get 2 more chances.
3d effect would be hard to add manual aim. More you play it the more you will see there is a lot to learn to be effective.
Graphics are cooler, still in PET, have alpha and beta left so who knows what all changes will come.
I play from NA, have not lagged or seen server crash. The harbor and free view is pretty neat seeing the ocean and the city and moving trains,cranes cars lol.
Not same as NF1 some of the same ships, can build your Captain different with the under officers instead of sailors vets etc. Game is growing on me.
