The idea is that you can upgrade your own ship like assisins creed Black Flag
-Amor
-more or better weapons
-Upgrade cannon Balls
-you can take the gallon or shopper or you build your own ship from a little nut shell to a war ship so it wont be „pay for win“ you must do a lot of quests or missions to upgrade the nut shell
It is just a little idea
You missed the point of the game, no one has an advantage over anyone. Someone that played 500 hours should have the same stuff as someone that just started. Having different cannon types etc. Are okay, but only if everyone gets them from the start. Only advantages you can have are experience and preperation. (maybe i missed a couple)
This game isn't about upgrading. But if everyone had access from the getgo to these ship changes (and across all ship types) then i could see it making its way into the game. I would love different types of ammunition for the cannons for example. But I'm pretty sure that's what the cursed cannonballs ate h
going to be.
@hoen2010 Agree with this apart from the 'everyone has them from the start', I would argue it doesn't matter when someone obtains items so long as they are all balanced with each other :) I'm sure they will add different cannon types which have different pros/cons but they don't necessarily all need to be available to people who have just started the game in my opinion :) There's something nice about the sense of 'earning' something too, e.g. earning enough money to purchase them or completing enough quests to earn them :)
A ship upgrade system wouldn't be the best idea because players who have played a lot would have to much of an advantage over newer players.
A ship upgrade system might work though if you place players in servers where only their skill group is. so new player have a chance to level up instead of getting killed by players with upgraded ships.
