Never seem to get anywhere. Like, new islands are never unlocked. Read abunch on the wiki it seems this is intended to be something you check every X time every day for months. Kinda sad.
I have no idea what you mean You check your progress to the next region by looking at the map (you may have to scroll over using the scroll wheel) After your ships have traveled a certain distance ...
Yea, starting to get the hang of it now. Always thought it went fairly fast since I see so many people with the gear. Guess they just started on day one and have done it constantly since.
yea starting on day one let a lot of players in the previous max region with nothing else to do but collect all the scrolls & gather trade goods to profit off of their port.
