Hey rare and everyone else am i the only one who would love to be able to upgrade the amount of supplies you can carry. Like instead of 10 cannon balls now i can hold 12 are 15 . Same with planks and bananas each costing more and more ? Tia
Upgrading the amount of supplies you can carry
@c00kie-m0nsta09 I would think it would be great to be able to do that! Though the only way I could see this happening is if they add satchel, pouch, or both.
What they could do is a weekly event/ campaign) where you start out receiving a pouch, which can only hold 3-5 more of one resource of your choice. After doing the weekly event/ campaign you will be given the satchel which could hold 3-5 more of each resource.
However that is just a rough idea of how they could pull it off.
@c00kie-m0nsta09 If it would be an easy upgrade why not just increase the cap for all instead of tying it to a purchase?
The moment that a crew is able to carry more supplies than another crew, you skew balance towards the ones who increased their cap. The outcome of a given battle wouldn't be skill alone but rather the one who purchased the right upgrade at the right time. Having the same upgrade accessible to all doesn't mean that all will have it simultaneously.
@program-024 true so just up the supply list by 5 for each that would be great 10 bananas 10 planks and 15 cannon balls for all

No. That'd make PvP fighting too difficult and PvE too easy, since everyone will just be able to tank shots by constantly cronching bananas. Not to mention it will become impossible to sink a ship.
The numbers exist in their current form for balance reasons. If you had more than 5 bananas in a fight, it would make it FAR too easy to live far too long. Any PvP battle that occurs near a barrel of bananas is a good example. Same goes for cannonballs and planks. While they could make items like crates a bit more common to facilitate less running back and forth, I understand the current limits and providing a method to upgrade would give some people an unfair advantage.
The only system I could see replacin' the one we have (which I think be just fine) would be to replace cannon/banana/plank inventory spots wit' a 20 item carry limit. So ye can customize yer load based on role on the ship or situation.
It's still not somet'ing I would like to see implemented, but I feel it would be better than just upping the load e'eryone can carry. An' what others have said, there will ne'er be a bullet pouch or banana sack that allows players to carry more than other players. Goes against the core o' the game system. They might as well start adding +1 swords an' armoured shirts.

Sacrificing a weapon slot, for example, to provide a banana or ammo backpack that your team could result with is an idea I’d like to see. It would make playing as a team more rewarding and open up new playstyles while maintaining balance.

How about 20 inventory slots and you fill them however you want.
Want 20 cannonballs, sure.
How about 20 bannanas? Overkill, but you do you@itsporkchopfu yer getting into custom build territory here. In the past I voiced interest in this type o' thing but others made convincing arguments an' I admit me mind was changed.
Now these were much more extreme build types rather than 'give up 1 weapon, gain 5 more capacity'.
All in all, I think the current system be fine. Yer ne'er far from a barrel on yer ship an' scurrying to find some bananas when the skeletons be hoarding can be fun.
My vote be to leave as is.
I can imagine fighting a pirate with 10 bananas 😂
Definitely not wanting to spend that much time. @c00kie-m0nsta09@awesomecoreusa said in Upgrading the amount of supplies you can carry:

I understand what you’re saying, but I do think that we need some major changes somewhere to allow for changes in playstyle.
Overwatch, LoL and HotS would be incredibly boring, repetitive and shallow if everyone had the same character and abilities with no playstyle variations to customize and synergize.
