New Idea for Arena: Nightmare difficulty!

But doesn't adding megs, krakens and skelly ships make it a pve edition of arena when half the clock time goes to just pve?

Oh no my fellow pirate! your going to have a ton on your plate already; the megs and krakens are just that one more complication to deal with.
And who said anything about a timer...Ahah! there's no timer in this version...basically, its a "Last pirate standing" sort of thing, so your mission is to be the last ship afloat (If your fellow crewmates don't kill you first!)

Rare will never update the arena, they do not care about it. (prove me wrong)

Ok, If they do not care about it, don't you think it would already be taken down? I think they are coming up with Ideas to turn the Arena into something better, or working on getting it back up into shape due to issues.
(Prove me wrong)

Friendly fire in Arena?

No.

Seriously, why not? Imagine all the blood thirsty pirates who are aching for a more difficult challenge? All the cut-throat piracy they they can muster to satisfy their inner pirate!
Ok, reality check...leave the no-collateral damage in when it comes to crews, but "A Last ship floating Battle Royale to the death!" Arena sounds very exciting, don't you think?

@gipperseadog They won't remove it because you can unlock commendations, also they have made the arena into a small little section with the maiden voyage right over it, big and tall and if you want me to "prove you wrong"

Here it is

Joe has said "We won't be investing kind of future development time in terms of new features or changes to the mode itself"

Well, that's embarrassing. You got me on that one. I guess you can't argue with that one, I stand down.

Let’s add some couple thousand seats around it with massive walls and pillars whilst we’re at it.
Makes arena more Roman than pirate with this difficulty, to be honest. Interesting idea, though

As a matter of fact, they actually announced officially that they will not be updating arena for the time being.

Doesn't necessarily mean they don't care. Just don't see a reason to invest resources there for now.

Yea, saw the video, such a shame, could've been grand...

I also had high hopes for arena, as I do enjoy to PvP.

But let's be real here: Sea of Thieves is all about Adventure mode.

@wsurftvveeds said in New Idea for Arena: Nightmare difficulty!:

No. I'm sorry but no.

Some adventure mode where you are revealed at all time and/or the red sea closes in gradually would be fun though if you want more difficulty.

Well, 2022 might be a good year for Pirate PvPr's, Skull & Bones is due out next year and it looks very nice despite the delays.

Will it really ? Have they released new trailers ? I couldn't find any recent ones.

They say (ubisoft) that the game is currently still in development and the game is in Alpha. So I don't see why they can't push it to release in 2022. I seriously doubt they are abandoning the game even though its release date keeps being pushed back.

@personalc0ffee said in New Idea for Arena: Nightmare difficulty!:

Already have Nightmare difficulty.

It's called

TEE
DEE
EM?

It's all in the wording. TDM, Battle Royale, Last ship Sailing...all the same. Just think though; You're in a duke-out with another crew...and Surprise! 2 skelly Galleons surfaces! now you better pay attention to them as well as the other crew if your going to win the round. (Of does this happen already?)

@jojo-buddy-v2 said in New Idea for Arena: Nightmare difficulty!:

I am confused are you talking about a completely new idea or an addition to the arena game mode because there isn't any loot, besides the sea dogs chest, in arena

It started as an idea to revitalize the Arena, but found out the Devs are just keeping it playable, but with no plans to improve it, so there is no future in Arena.
