Hourglass is the worst mode ever made

[MrFella]

the title says it all, full of toxic losers, and all the comms for it are horrid, def would be better off just removing the mode all together

1. It’s not full of toxic losers, there are *some* toxic losers, but also some pretty great people play it.
2. If you don’t like it, don’t play it. The only reason you are here to complain about it is if you play it a lot. And then I’m sorry to say, but I think that it’s a skill issue on your end.

I myself quite enjoy the mode.

This is the game's way of saying "get good".

Which, ironically, is what the mode is there for.

You never heard of Arena

[SolutionS]

Its funny because they made arena and overtime really never fixed any of the bugs so people just stopped playing it, then they removed arena stating less than 2% of play time was in arena. They then add it back inside of adventure mode so it takes up slots on the server as well as forced the whole game to be updated to balance hourglass. Lastly, with the multitude of bugs in HG less and less people are playing it. This is basically the Rare cycle. But hey there are never any bugs with the cash shop.

The lesson to be learned here is that everyone sucks when they start but practice will make them better.

If you join the PvP mode you should expect your opponents to be decent at PvP - and to have the arrogance that often accompanies the skill.

So yes, actually. Get good.

turn off in game mic and chat, turn off names etc, only talk to people through discord, glhf

HG. There are two things here you need to be good @ - boarding and shipping. Those who are ultimate boarders usually win I'm afraid, from what I've seen in streams. Boarding is just the most awful and silliest thing IG. Think like that ;)

If you're grinding for cosmetics then I cannot think of a worse way to play this game. The goal of hourglass is to give what people already addicted to pvp; more pvp. Without that mindset, it is a slog that will take the best parts of you and turn against yourself. People trying for the end-goal instead of the journey temper their expectations and understand full well it's going to be wildcard after wildcard after wildcard.

The only time I would even dare do said gamemode is if I sailed with someone who had that mindset and desire to play it for what it is instead of pursuing something presently out of reach. It's quite inspiring to sail with people who actually have fun with it.

So you bought the game on release day 7 years ago and have 386h of play time. 10 more than me and I bought the game 17 months ago (and I am a casual player playing no more than once a week with a friend, and not engaging in PvP).

Hourglass is pure luck in that case, yes. If you are lucky, you have an opponent than knows as much as you. If not, you have actual good players or cheaters.

[Kisama]

Yea but its nice to have the majority of them off of the high seas. It's like they grouped them all in one place.
Anything that groups the toxic players together and away from me is a good game mode.
