*NEW PLAYABLE MUSIC!*

or if you want them to simply just add more songs that works too.

but i like the idea of gathering equip able shanties better, than spending my booty on mediocre skins available..

@x1-two
micro transaction store?!?!? :( sad face!
when is said store supposed to appear? i have not heard of its arrival?

this would be far easier for them to add to the game than most the content people suggest. like some suggestions i see make me scratch my head in awe at how people here expect them to code that amount of content in such a short period of time.

new music would be a quick addition in comparison.

because they already have most the"game code" made.

1. they have a shop system designed
2. they already have an equip system designed
3. they already have a song play along system designed.

all they would really need to do to impliment this would be to tweek the system and add in just a tiny bit of content replicating code similar to what they have now.

and just hire a some people to make a few tunes.

to me this seems like a pretty reasonable, and fairly quick way to add to the horizontal progression of the game. and the success is only limited to the quality and desireableness of the music produced.

@noisa1992

i have not heard this before... can you find any sources and post them?

Wouldn't mind seeing different instruments entirely, like a flute or fiddle, and they would play different tunes

yessssssss

@chivalrous1
i agree that would be nice!! the circle equipment select wheel has 4 extra slots in the circle that are not being used next to the current instruments. they are just blank.

i wonder what they are going to fill them with??!!

I hear you get a new shanty when becoming a legendary pirate. Can anyone confirm?

@spilt-puddin again, i'm placing a bet here: "coming to the in-game cash shop at an outpost near you soon"

@ghostwolfviking @Shralla

thats not a half bad idea guys. to have a couple odd end songs that can be found in random locations? or possibly a couple songs that can be unlocked by completing certain milestones?
as well as a music shop.

@jynx-the-clown

i have not heard anything of the legendary pirate getting a new shanty. but i think it should be a must. They should impliment it.

@faal-zoor-kriid

i thought about custom music. and even came up with a few ideas, like making a music creator like in ocarina of time.... but i dont think it will work. because the music has to sync with more than one instrument for others to play along. with random people and stuff. and it will also need to have a drunken song element... because of all the different aspects of music i doubt they will add in a creation tool.

but on the bright side. them adding more should not be a difficult task if they try. they already have the system in place to do it!

@spilt-puddin I really hope they add more shanties and instruments. 🎵🎶🎵🎶🎶🎵🎵🎶

AGREED!!!

We definitely need new songs. How many of you have the shanties playing over and over in your head, even when your sleeping? Give me a vote up if it's happening to you.

@spilt-puddin said in NEW PLAYABLE MUSIC!:

PROPOSAL:
make a music shop in the outpost.
add new songs that can be purchased from a music shop.

make it so that "only the person who purchased the music can start the song..." but allow the rest of the crew the ability to play along with their own instruments even if they do not own the song. BUT ONLY AFTER SONG IS INITIALLY STARTED AND IS BEING CURRENTLY PLAYED BY THE ONE WHO OWNS THE MELODY.

songs are very desirable and a fun part of game play and sing and dance with the crew.
but what fun are they if you are the only one playing them??? give the song owner the power to get the house rocking. this will allow people more motivation to continue gathering booty!! customize our own sailing experience beyond skins with music! it adds to the horizontal progression. so its a win win

EDIT additional comment:
with the ability to equip music purchased. this will also solve the problem of players having the cycle through dozens of songs to get to the one they like. (which would be our new problem if they just add music to the way we currently play music and switch songs.) have like 5 or 6 slots for music sheets to equip at a time.

what you have to understand is that the development team has to make their songs harmonize with more than one instrument. but they also have to add in the drunken song element. so it takes time to make and develop. they will need to devote a team just to making lots of music. but it will be a rewarding venture.

please post. comment. bump and upvote if you like this suggestion. hopefully the development team might catch wind!

Give us some classic shanties! Not these made up songs or non shanty songs! GIVE US REAL SHANTIES(r***y dandy o should be the very first)!!!

My buddies and I were talking about music and think it's fine for instruments to play random but the captain quarter should have a piano with a music book. Select the song in the music book and start it on the piano then the rest of the crew can join in on their instruments. Purchased songs could also be found in the music book by the person who bought it.

@blackenedred-sg

that is not a half bad idea. kind of like how you can go down into the mid hull and change your purchased skins but like a playable storage box.

what if they kept it so it cycles randomly like it currently does? but only on the songs equip

have the piano as an option but not the only way to start share songs. because what if you want to play a song on the beach while you watch two random ships sink each other in the docks?

but they add a piano to play as an additional playable instrument on the ship? that you can start music on...
& have it so that it also acts as a music sheet equip box. like the rest of your skin swap boxes.

BUT have it only cycles through the 4 or 5 songs that you have equip. that way you can still just stop playing to start a new one.

this would make it so
A. you dont have to wait till you get to an outpost to change the music.
B. you dont need to go only to a piano to play music. you can start your jams anywhere like you already do now.
C. you have an additional instrument to play if you want to while sailing.

@spilt-puddin I like your input.
