Sinking ship

  • In the event that my ship has sunk in battle I would honestly rather have the choice whether to respawn in the water where the ship was, or an island 20 miles away.

    Then there's no punishment for sinking. It'd be even less consequence for aggro players than there is now (which is very little).

    e.g. inifinite ammo would be great "for me" - but it'd ruin gameplay balancing.

    No - if anything I think having your ship sunk should have a much greater consequence.

  • @mmountain I do too, I think you should be stranded in water or an island until you steal another ship

    My idea was that the crew spawns in row boats scattered to the 4 winds and they must regroup at an outpost to recoup their boat. This'd give solo players a little bump when getting back into things on a sea full of galleons.

  • Yeah or you have to purchase a new boat. It will give added incentive to go collect gold then

  • Why? So you can get a chance to collect your floating treasure and safely hide it on the nearest island? I think not!

  • @t38ax72 no so you don't have to end the battle there ? Half the time when the battle get a exciting you sink and get sent far away nobody wins then

    But getting sunk should be ending that particular battle - you lost!

  • @mmountain maybe I just love boat battles too much haha

    Doesn't it stop being a boat battle when you lose your boat?

  • @subaqueousreach bit late on this one.

    Yes, the person that sunk you wins

    You sunk. You are dead. You are the loser.

    The other crew did not sink. They may still respawn at their ship. They are alive. They are the winners.

  • @mattydove74 already conceded this ? Just wish I didn't have to respawn on the other side of the planet

    No one want to fight the same loser 6 times in 15 minutes.

  • @mattydove74 I do ? Because I won't see another boat for another 7 hours because of the server size ? And then I'll have to go back to collecting gold which buys me a new pair of shoes
    Dread to think.
