Regarding Ship sets

  • Dear Rare,

    Is there any pattern or approach when creating ship sets?
    I have noticed some ship sets have more than others, even more than the ones you buy from emporium (Real money)

    What do I mean?

    Some of the ships have their deck painted and also the walls inside your ship are painted as well on the lower deck.
    For example: The Blue Azure set (not sure if its the right name, but its the one with the shark figurehead).
    The ship set is very beautiful, whilst it does not have painted deck and it does not have glowing sails like the premium, but the lower deck of the ship looks really cozy as it is also in same nice neat blue color. Also the harpoons, have a nice white bottom, it's truly an amazing ship set. I have received this set for free from somewhere.

    Let's compare it now with one of the premium sets - Soulflame (my main and favourite)
    I've purchased the whole set from the shop (afterwards when the flares where added I had to purchase it as extra, but lets leave that for another time)
    It has glowing sails, nice green/black hull with a painted deck. However, when you go to the lower deck the walls are standard brown.

    Why am I posting this?

    It would be really appreciated if more preview options were available, or more screenshots from inside and outside the ship.

    Also, make ships that are purchased with real cash superior in aesthetics.

    I don't mind sets having differences and little details that are unique to them. However, having a lot of free sets looking better than the premium ones, makes the premium ones less valuable and less attractive.

    I am not proposing to make free sets worse, or stop giving them that extra bit of touch, just please make the premium sets better than free ones. I think it will help the game too.

    P.S.- People who do not spend any money on a game once they purchase it, please don't throw stones at me. I am not proposing anything against your interests, just asking for some improvements.

  • @zig-zag-ltu Why have a preview when you can have a feature to paint the inside of the ship? I am shocked this was not a thing with The Captaincy update.

    Also lanterns, harpoons, saving ship sets, working servers, working tutorial, saving trinkets, working ship naming, working milestones.

    I expected those too.

    Also you got that "blue set" by being a level 5 seadog BEFORE the announcement of The Arena's closure.

    That's possible mate, I've done a years break and I'm missing some items and I have some items I don't even know about :D

    And what you have suggested, if it would be possible would be amazing. So many sets need just a little touch to make them perfect. I wonder how Rare could implement it if they listened and chose to do it.

  • It's a forced interaction lol.

    The only way to truly know is to find someone with what you want and beg for a tour 🤔

    I've made at least 3 closed galleon sessions to let people check out the full Lodestar shipset.

  • I want a ship set that is a picture of my face :)
