Boat throttle is slow after update

[Reddinkill]

Well. Saw that the game was updated and wanted to give it a go. But my boat throttle is slower then before.

Boat is: Ocean Runner

I think it is intended, they lowered its max speed.

ocean runner is made crap now, was fine before the "hot fix" it even glitches in mor water to the cabin. its like trying to drive a container, bigger boats snarset and knots handles better.

i likes the ocean runner, until the hrm so called fix.
throttles shouldnt take long to move, its the speed that should build up even with the good motor its sluggish.

Yeah, throttle response is way to slow. Was fine before the patch, now it's not really possible to make precise maneuvers. And don't mix up throttle response with acceleration. Two different stories...

I don't mix em. I mean the throttle sticks where way faster before and if you look from 3 person view it's the propler icon (White/gray/dark gray) Dependend if Forward/Idel/Backwards)
It's that there has gotten way slower seens the update.
You are right. Before it was way better at maneuvering then it is now.

Yeah, that's what i meant. The mix up was related to Ted's thread ;-)

Ocean Runner is still by far the best early ship in the game by a country mile. They should really adjust either its cargo capacity or quotas.

thats why i liked the ship, it was soo good pre patches, not overly good but it WAS nice to use.

Is there any problem with the throttle on ocean runner because the throttle quick on on to half when i put to full pls help or it is like that.

I can confirm the throttle on the Ocean Runner sucks. I wish there was a hot key to go press to go to 100% throttle. I was picking up a string of 40 deep lines and having to hold the W key each time for several seconds to get the throttle up to 100% got really annoying.

They also didn't seem to fix the flooding issue with the boat. It still seems to be underwater with a large amount of cargo on board.

I don't know what their goal is with the ship. The throttle issue is a nuisance and I feel not intended because I don't have that same issue with my other boats. The ocean runner's cargo hold just seems way too large. How does it have a larger hold than those giant moden box freezer ships, like the vibeke and the sjarken (I think that's their names). Not just a little more but like 3 times more. Those ones say due to their cargo space you gotta freeze and stack, don't have to do that on the ocean runner. Also, after the patch the Ocean Runner's quota got massively increased. I originally had a 110,000 lb quota for tuna, now around 400,000 lbs quota.

my ocean runner only has 132 000 storage with max upgrade

When it takes 20 seconds to adjust throttle between sets, THAT is WAY to long. It was fine before.
