Hoist the colours

  • We need to have a small flag with skull and cross bones we can raise and lower. Won't affect in game play but gives other people an idea of what your ships friendliness stance may be.

  • Plus another level of ship customisation for the flag design :)

  • Great idea! Love it!

  • It is possible to change the flag color from white to black. Im not sure exactly what triggers it; I think it is killing other players or instigating naval combat or maybe even both. I had mine turn black earlier after sinking four ships and getting 10+ kills in a play session.

  • @bluwolve
    Not when I played. Sadly I don't know who of us had a bug :D

  • yeah does seem weird a pirate game with no jolly roger :/

  • Could even extend this to hoisting a white surrender flag or a black pirate one

  • @khaleesibot Big thanks to the rare team for including this in the hungering deep! Keep on #BeMorePirate :D

  • @silverburchlive yah but what do the colors they showed us mean? i mean white i guess is surrender/peaceful and the bloody one and jollly roger one probably both mean attack? and the others who knows haha

  • @revanjstone Traditionally a red flag was no quarter, and a black was quarter given. White surrender, plus there's the legendary pirate flag in the mix too. The other looks like a hungering deep reward, maybe for defeating the boss?

  • @silverburchlive i see, i cant find where i saw the flags haha do you have a link?

  • So Rare are introducing flags but will they be big enough to be seen?
    And if they are big enough to be seen will you be able to see them at long range?

    Considering the draw distances are so poor at the moment I'm not holding out much hope on the flags being useful for communicating your intentions. I mean last night I chased a black pig that turned into a pink pig once I got 20 yards away and his skin rendered!

  • @silverburchlive This is in the Hungering Deep update. We will have several flags to choose from.
