Its been said before but its worth bringing attention back to it especially as its an easy fix.
Put in a bed and remove the brig.
Fix the water splash down deck too. Its not fixed despite it being in patch notes.
Bed on a sloop
Not sure if a bed would fit on the Sloop, a hammoc would probably be better like Waca-Hombre said!
( @Musicmee You can't even @ at Waca since the forum doesn't allow the first word in his name?)
@kaloudz said in Bed on a sloop:
Remove the brig altogether - and just introduce cuffs. Cuffed players can’t interact with anything. Problem solved, and more ship space achieved.
Problem is, blue haired screechers would cause a scene claiming the game is promoting slavery or some utter nonsense if they done that.
Unfortunately that's the world we live in now

The saddest thing about that, is you’re probably absolutely right about it lol.
@daringclarky I actually have a great idea for the brig, the problem in the sloop that if someone is joining you and he just want to mess around blow up your ship and toss off the treasure you cant stop him and it happned to all of us many times.
My idea is that the first player who gets into the sloop have more control on it so he can brig the new one if he chooses, simple and helpful its a shame they have not added it to the game.
Its not perfect but almost nothing is sometimes you just have to make the choice with the least problems and this one makes sense.@kaloudz said in Bed on a sloop:
I still vote that if we cant swap the brig for a handcuff system, that we move brigs from off the ship, and have them stationed at outposts. I think it'd be pretty funny to see crew members from another crew, confined to jailhouses whilst you're stocking your ship and taunting them.
Random idea, but what if you could capture members of other crews and make them walk the plank to meet their fate with meg?
@kaloudz said in Bed on a sloop:
@troubled-cells You know, THAT, would be one hell of a feature!
Where it would be implemented is another thing, maybe a mechanic for a new mode In arena or something, like PvP hunted mode where the aim is to capture a few targeted players similar to infected or prop hunt modes.
@troubled-cells Arena definitely seems the best fit, and there's no denying it needs some more modes. I like the idea of hunted too, modes like that are modes that I love to play, same as infected and prop hunt. If only Rare would listen... and implement. Nonetheless, feeding a crew to a meg, even if it's just an end-of-mode cutscene, is a must!
@faceyourdemon said in Bed on a sloop:
@troubled-cells It was experimented before and it sounds like a fun feature on paper but it wont feel natural with the game mechanics and the movment of the player.
I dunno, I think given the right context it could work, I mean pets was a feature that went through many corrections because they didn't feel right in the world either.
@kaloudz said in Bed on a sloop:

Equally sad is that a few people would totally RP that scenario just to try and get a rise outta folks.
@troubled-cells said in Bed on a sloop:
@ hombre
Yeah but the difference is what you are suggesting is a bannable offence.
The other .... is moronic outrage culture.
Eh, I consider both to be pretty sad. Though bannable offenses are, by definition, technically worse.
Plus, I just don't believe in the idea of "outrage culture". There have always been overly sensitive folks. Like with many things, the internet and social media has just given them a broader voice.
This is only my opinion, of course. I've done no research to back it up. But with how many platforms there are nowadays for professionals and amateurs alike to push envelopes and find audiences....
Well, the idea of "outrage/cancel culture" seems just as ridiculous as the whole "war on christmas" nonsense that some people can't seem to get over.

Unfortunately though it exists, quite predominately In far left socialist groups and individuals.
Eh, if you say so.
@troubled-cells But pets were never a problem in the begining they just felt lifeless but didnt bothered the gameplay those are two diffrent things i think you are being naive about how it would end up.
Try to picture this lets say another ship have captured you your friends are trying to save you but they already have 1 less member to survive the fight and that is if they even care what about all the crews who dont really communicate with each other which is most of the open crews? they would just ignore your cries.
If youve got captured by another team if you know the people you are playing with you can just leave the game and join back your friends free also how it would look like to be bound?
The movment in Sea of Thieves is not clunky its fast so you wont have yout guns but you can still jump around and if i kidnap you while you and your crew are trying to complete a voyage they will be short in men and it will make their voyage slower and annoying.
There are many cool ideas on paper but try to truly imagine it here and youll see that they wont fit and wont be balanced.And im coming from the game Dayz handcuffing players and doing all bunch of weird things to them is my jam but it wont work here im afraid.

Right, this is why I discussed game modes with another user.
I think they could do something with it in arena as a game mode as opposed to just a mechanic in adventure, instead giving it a meaningful context.
Not really being naive afterall am I.

But any way, I cant really say the bed on a sloop thing has occurred to me or really bothered me.
it bothers me which is why i suggested it

Obviously.
@daringclarky i dont think it should be a bed, a hammock would be nice and makes more sense to me, for the true pirate life anyways. also yea i think the brig should be removed, i have suggested that before, for more space down there for other things, like a fish tank. it would be nice if they removed the brig since it does litterally nothing. on a ship that size we just throw them over board cause we cant be pood to deal with it lol
@kaloudz brig makes sense on bigger ships, but yea cuffs for a solo ship would be cool but they dont let us lock other players up anyways :(
@kaloudz aye i have suggested that before, but for hackers. although it wouldnt be live, it would just be a name and shame thing, where we see their pirate sitting in there untill a new hacker replaces them. it would just be where banned people are put as a way to name and shame them. in other games you get live announcements that people have been banned and its always good to see
@d4m0r3d I’ve always enjoyed that sort of thing too. There’s something oddly satisfying about it all lol.
