I dont know if the devs think about this but..
imagine sailing your galleon with friends wearing english colours when you spy on the horizon another british galleon fighting a group of friends wearing another flag and you and your crew assist your countrymen
pirate flags=we come for you yar :P
There are some unexplained mechanics already in place with flags, right now. I gave up searching for info on it, as I figure it could be something they 'turn-on,' or fully implement, in a future update. The dev's at Rare have had to have given flags [at least] some thought already, so I'm content with remaining patient for now.
@wodyo ppl ask unimaginable things from Rare ,some of those things are good tho. but require a new game from the begining
flags are just skins on 3D models not so hard for them to do it..lets hope more flags and not just a pirate a white a red simple flags
@princeps-pirata So true. A little over 3 weeks into release, and people expect the whole game to change to fit their world-view. Lol.
But yea. I noticed recently that ship flags do change colors (from white to black). I have a sneaky suspicion it has something to do with using the Make Friends function in the game, but it only seems to display to players who actually use the function? And it doesn't have any other effects, as far as I can tell.
Flags could be a pretty cool way to easily identify Friend from Foe.
@princeps-pirata No, just as with the other national-flag posts, please don't add this. This is a pirate fantasy, leave real world stuff out. I don't want to be remembered of the concept of nation when I'm playing a pirate game with skeletons and pirate legends.
The "national" animosity of some players when they hear a foreign language ingame is already bad enough.
@cyphronite many pirates were "blessed" by local governors to use their national flag or used national flags for cover. so it is historiccaly correct besides im a sea farer myself and even now 2018 ships use lots of flags not only national ones.
you can always stay anonymus =black flag :)
