Hey guys, I had the idea of having countries into the game. So, for example, you could pick the side of being a pirate and you would raid others and hunt treasure or you decide to be part of the British fleet and conquer land.
Here below I've described some roles that I think would be very suitable for the game:
Pirate: This role would give you access to special advantages that pirates have. You would make a character for a pirate and then play as a pirate. You can swap to a British sailor but you can't switch back to a pirate after with the same character.
Brit: In this role you're a British sailor. Your main job is making sure that you conquer land and fight in big battles. You're able to work with other and you're making sure that you get loot from islands and conquering.
Spain: This is basically the same as a Brit you make sure that you conquer lands that you order by your country to get money and fame.
I also had some ideas about some game styles I also have included them here below:
Battle Campaign:
As a Brit or Spanish, you make sure that you conquer the lands as described below. You do that by going to an outpost and hitting the matchmaking button. You will fight with 5 other ships about a piece of land. The one who wins gets the lands. All the lands that have been captured will be shown on a map. This will have the same map design as a game called "Heroes & Generals" there you also have a huge map where you can see how far the enemy or your allies came.
IMPORTANT: As I described above you also will be able to gain Fame as a Brit or Hispanic, this will enable you to gain advantages in one of those fights. You will be able to play as a commander role (I haven't yet figured out how that will work) and you can control the ships and campaign map.
BOATS, BANKS & DEATH There should be no boat when you start the game. You will have to grind with a AI captain to get money to buy your first small vessel with only 4 cannons. After you need to grind with that boat to get a better one. Once destroy use your money or grind the AI captain again to get better boats. If you die you lose everything on the boat and what you wear (so armor with better stats or something that makes you faster). Boats can be repaired but not retrieved again after you die. Banks are going to be in big city island where you can store your money, fruit, treasure, jewelery, etc.
CITIES AND ISLANDS New updates to the game where huge islands are made that contain cities. These will contain auction houses, blacksmiths, boat traders, mineral buyers, fruit sellers, jewelry makers and taverns. For trading, there should be some cheap fruits that give you just a tiny bit of HP and there should be expensive fruits that make you able to get a lot of HP fast. For trading, this will be an amazing thing. Also, there should be minerals that you can turn into cannonballs, weapons, jewelery and boats. These you can mine on the big islands and you can get them from chests and the city store. New weapons with different levels and stats should get added to for the blacksmith.
100 Player Open World = You could have a 100 player open world but with new updates to the game where you can add cities and taverns. You will have small casinos where you will be able to make some extra money and some bigger islands where you will be able to ride a horse and climb mountains. These cities will have their own AI police so if there will be fights in front of the city port the AI will start attacking you. Cities will have taverns where you will be able to do missions and find crew members, they will have a blacksmith where you can get weapons and the behind the city you can go on an exploration in the jungle.
VERY INTERESTING
Ship mechanics, that is one of the most important parts of this game. Let's suppose that this game actually requires you to buy a ship. There will be 2 possibilities for you, go to the tavern and find a captain that needs a crew. Or join an AI captain where you do missions to earn money, these missions will be held on a separate server with no other online players so you will be able to make some money to buy a ship. On open world battles (so PvP you can fight other pirates or country captains and you will be able to get their loot, ship or gold. Trading specific types of fruits will be worth a lot of money as back in the day fruit on ships was uncommon. More sea animals will be added that you can hunt for money and you can sell them.
COMBAT SYSTEM One of the saddest parts about this game is the combat system. There should be a new way for swords fight and improved animations, weapons should only be available while above water and when in or underwater you can only use your sword. If you climb out of the water you need to dry your gun. This can be done by a 3 seconds animation where you flip your gun and water spills out of your barrel. On the sides of boats, there should be little things where you can hold on so you can dry your weapon before you enter a ship. This can be a little rope or a piece where you can hold on to.
WEAPONS There should be a difference between starter weapons and advanced weapons. Starter weapons can shoot faster but deal less damage. Advanced and more expensive weapons shoot slower but deal a lot of damage if used correctly.
TRADING SYSTEM Enhancements to the character can deal a lot of new opportunities. You can visit the auction house in the city where you can actually trade weapons, rings, fruit, minerals (gold, silver, bronze, you will be able to mine those ores), and of course treaties such as jewelry or treasures that you found. Fruits will be a part of the trade but most important armor, weapons and boats that give you different stats should be the main part of this trade.
I hope you guys liked my new ideas and I hope that this will get implemented because it's amazing.
