Hi there.
I really hope one of you FS guys will read this and of course think about it.
Since you guys announced that you will implement Frigates into the game, I just started to freak out.
It was the only real thing that made me wait for the patch for that time. In any other case I'd been really frustrated, like I saw on many other guys and regiments that waited for it.
But now, that I finally got the chance to check out the Firgate, I got shocked. I literally got shocked. I saw a fucking Frigate, with a fucking 22 cannon gun-deck that got equipped with 4(!) ~24-pounder cannons. I really like the game's historicall accuracy but this is just a bad joke. A sith-rate ship-of-the-line, was never equipped with 24 pounders. They had normally 6 to 8 pounders but never higher than 9! 24-pounders were the armament of higher rating Frigates like 1st to 3rd rate ships-of-the-line.
Besides this I also hoped to the some carronades on the ship, but there aren't any. Why? Those guns are the secondary armament of ships of that time.
I now ask you to change that thing, what I only can relate as a bad joke or you explain me, why you did this and why a Frigate would only have 4 cannons and not the ammount of cannons it can handle.
The announcement of that patch really made me hope of NW getting more awesome then any other game, but since I saw that, I really kinda lost hope.
Best regards,
