Hear me out.
What if we could sell all of our loot at once at the dock?
You have a small area around the dock you need to carefully park and anchor in, and once your anchor is dropped an item list comes up on the captains screen and he can choose which items he wants to keep, if any.
This would save so much time and energy unloading. And for PVP it just adds a new dimension. You can easily prevent someone from parking within the zone you just need to anchor them before they get there or veer them off course. Or maybe if they ram into the dock it doesnt work.
And it would make the chases more intense and maybe not drag on for 3 hours.
I personally love the idea of not spending so much time spinning up and down stairs unloading.
Park nicely at the dock to sell everything at once
@Mith-Bosevem i really like the idea! However, i must admit that i agree with @McGovery argument.
I'm a bit in the middle on this idea.. i would like to quick sell my loot, just to speed up the proces. But on the other hand i like the thrill of searching the horizon for some enemy to sneak up on me.
For example, Plunder Outpost is one of the best outposts to sneak up to due to the MASSIVE mountain.I think I prefer the current system.
Having to spend time unloading items introduces an interesting dilemma. Where you need to choose what items you can afford to offload if any at all when under threat. If I could just park and sell all, I would never feel danger, especially on a sloop vs galleon. A couple of anchor turns is all you would need to create a gap large enough to do this with no pressure.
It would also remove any opportunity for a crafty thief to pinch anything after they've started unloading.
I feel it just subtracts too much from the game for the little convenience it adds.
It does not make sense at all ... the game is combat, theft, piracy, persecution ... I'm sorry but this is something that is afraid of PVP and being sunk when you have treasures on board ...
I by myself should have been limiting the amount of items that are sold by outpost ... for example a balances control on each outpost, if you arrive at the outpost and he does not have enough money to pay you for his features you would have to leave at search for another with money available, this would certainly force everyone to circulate on the map and would certainly facilitate the encounter with other boats, which would give more excitement to the game.
Id like to have the option of selling at the seaposts.. but only at partial value compared to the outposts.
Id also like to be able to purchase SOME supplies aswell.. Say the Merchant will sell up to 20 of each for 500 gold or something.as for the OP Topic.. what i do is prior to reaching the outpost load all my Loot onto the bow sprint, nose up to the dock & simply drop all the loot onto the dock. This will cut ur unload time in half! :D
