Simple Progression Unlocks Sails & Flags

  • Wondrbread

    Hi,

    I was thinking it would be cool to reward beginner players with basic customizations after completing simple tasks. This might help with beginner retention and would be a good way to introduce simple flag designs or sail colors while promoting gameplay.

    For example, completion of one of these simple tasks/milestones would unlock some basic sail colors or flag designs.

    • Adjust sails properly (full billow)
    • Docking a certain distance from the pier
    • Survive a PVP battle
    • Survive a battle with Kraken
    • Communicate with your crew
    • Sailing through a storm
    • Shoot out of the cannon onto an island
    • Beat a skull fort

    Please add more ideas!

    Thanks

    @wondrbread Yeah great idea, i will love to see comestics tied to achievements or tasks. (even titles would be cool as an example: 10 galleons sunk you get a galleons sinker title or something like that)

    @arkhais That would be a great addition!

    @wondrbread I'm in favor! It gives pirates more motivation while waiting on the voyage milestones.

    This could go hand in hand with achievements as well.

    For example, shoot out of a cannon, ricochet off a rock, and land on the top of the Crooked Mast rock formations or something. Achievement: "Lucky Bounce" unlocked.

    I'm sure we could come up with some better ideas!

    I'm really looking for more incremental achievements or positive reinforcements to keep new players interested while increasing diversity of customizations.

    Even with just the flags, I feel like there could be way more designs added quite easily - even if it is just a bunch of colors of the rainbow. Where is the banana flag? What about a pig flag? Some fun stuff like that would be cool to see in-game.
