Dear developers, I know there have probably been a lot of such suggestions already, but I just can't hold back the cry of my soul.
I have 5 close friends, all of them want to play our favorite game all together. And there is no such opportunity in the game. I realize you are not making a new 5 player super ship anytime soon. 5 players together gives too big an advantage against other players, but let me still say something.
Often players log into the same server together, it's time consuming and inconvenient, but they do it and it gives them the ability to sail two boxes. Yes banally any alliance gives a very big advantage.
I ask, expand the galleon crew to 5 people, nothing will change. Or at least give the ability to come in with two ships in safer seas.
5 players, I beg you
Its a good suggestion. But what happens if you end up having 6 friends that want to play? Then you’ll be back here making a post requesting a 6 person crew. Rolling on the deck laughing
This is a fun game. I have 9 friends who play this game. But since Gallys only allow 4 people. 5 others cannot join my ship. I was hoping with Guilds when I first heard about it would be a place where you could join a guild and put 5 guild boats onto the same server. With the idea that rep/gold would be decreased. I hope they do figure out a way to allow friends to play together.

Adding a 5th to galley will make it way more powerful. a good galley crew is already fearsome, giving them a 5th just makes it worse. Sorry just run woth two boats.

Yes, you're right, for the most part I was really talking about playing in safe seas or, as written above, guild servers.
I hate to be the 'slippery slope' guy but you want 5 players because 4 is the max.
Then, a year or two down the line, someone wants 6 players, because 5 is the max, and an awkward number. So why not 6 players?
Then, later, someone points out that guilds have more than 6 players, so why not a larger ship? And 7 or 8 players?Round and round it goes.
Honestly, I don't get this mindset; Every co-op game these days, someone comes along and says "I know your game is balanced for (x) players. But why not spend time & money to completely rebalance the entire game to give us more players?"@murzolt how do you manage to contradict yourself in one post? I know 5 players would give too much advantage against other players, but expand galleon to 5 players, nothing will change???
All games have design principles built around specific numbers. Not only is it massive implications to change an individual ship but server balance in general where there are ship and player limits. Hope this is never a thing.

Safer seas is a derivative of higher seas. Changing it there would really confuse people making the transition
Guild servers should only exist of theybhsve 0 loot/comms.

So which is it?
@murzolt as annoying as it is to do take the time and try to find the same server takes less time than you'd think but as of right now multi ships is the best way to have more than 4 friends playing....I too have this problem there's 8 of us that play sot
