Hey, I would really appreciate it if the number of players in the galleon would be increased by 1 - or alternatively a new ship model comes into play, on which 5 people can play together.
So we wouldn't have to leave anyone out in our private group, just because there is no place left, and we could finally all play together.

@europa4033 No, I just want a friend not to have to watch and can participate
Yeah, sadly in this game, it would make galleons too imbalanced. Having 4 players on cannons while being able to steer that ship, would make it a bit too overpowered for brigs and sloops. Just having an extra person to help bilge would make it that much harder to sink. Once custom servers are here, you'll be able to make any crew size you want!
So if in the long run, you one day decide to sail on a Duo Sloop.
Somewhere...a 5 man galleon appear, instead of 2v4 there is now 5 players to deal with. Instead of the galleon firing 4 cannons at once, now they are steering the ship and firing, or all 5 decide to board.
You think that be fun for everyone? 4 is balanced.
I remember back in the day...2 galleon crews decided to board together on a single Galleon, 8 men all together. 4 below and 4 above.
imagion you coming across that.
@europa4033 No, I don't think the galleon will be there too op because the galleon is not manoeuvrable enough like the sloop or a two-mast that with the bilge is okay understand I would take longer to sink yes but you also relieve the bilge a bit of work I'm really just really only concerned that my colleague is not excluded because there is no more space
@europa4033 And if that's really the case that the octopus, megalodon and skeleton ships could appear at once at the same time what happened to us yesterday is really and another manned player sloop would be there another player really appropriate with a galleon that we had even to 3 at a brigade had to do badly which was completely in vain since we sank and with a galleon it would also be even worse and longer to get rid of the octopus like the megalodon!
It's just not meant to be any offence, I just really want no one to be excluded and into such. Cases also the bilge is somewhat relieved and a good boarder can also prove the opposite that also a 5 man galleon can sink say only PvP lvl ü150 or more or unexpectedly good players who do not play PvP ^^
Yeah so, there are 4 roles for the galleon: helm, cannon, bilge, and flex. By adding a fifth person to the galleon, you increase it's chances against other ships significantly, as the additional person would make galleons overpowered. You'd be able to have 2 board other ships without any loss of firepower or repairs. The imbalance wouldn't be fair to other players in this game.
The number of players each ship accommodates is balanced for fairness against other ships. They're not going to disrupt that balance to accommodate your friend group. Next week we'll probably have someone asking for 6 players on a galleon.
With custom servers in season 20, you'll have no problems having everyone on your ship on your own server, so you're sure to have a lot of fun!
@darkdragon7341 Your friend doesn't have to watch and CAN participate.
Make a sloop with 2 guys, make a brig with the other 3, & play together that way. :)
No need to be on 1 ship per se.
The problem with having 5 or 6 people on a galleon is that the game wouldn't be properly balanced anymore.
4 decent players on a galleon are already near unbeatable for any other crew/ship in the game. :)
So even more players on a galleon? Completely disagree.
I get that it would be fun for you to have more of your friends on the ship. But 20 players on a galleon would be fun too.
Yet, in a game that has pvp, the competitive/pvp aspect being balanced is one of the core/important things the game needs to do right, and at this point the game is doing fine as it stands now, if anything needs to be said about this galleon is already kind of OP.
Greetings, Hal.
@haltzo5045 I'm not looking for 3-4 hours to find us on servers! And the galleon is rather very disadvantaged a good boarder can put a galleon within 3-4min without you can do anything more! In addition, she has a turn radios that is abnormal and who a octopus and another megalodon comes like a player sloop which happens to us almost in the respect already is it is also over the 2 have to make water out outside ship 1 is in permanent repair mode and the other must beside shooting, boarder pay attention and be careful that he is not drawn in by octopus or by cannon bullets. And I also mentioned increasing 1 slot at the galleone or a new ship with 5 people
@europa4033 This is an argument, but even our best bilge has problems at the same time with a octopus as a megalodon and skeleton ship event and if there is also another ship, you have less chances of overcoming it at all. Apart from that, a sloop can also lay a galleon within 3-5 minutes, even if there are only two of them and the sloop is a thousand times more manoeuvrable than the thick ship, I also wrote to increase a slot or a new ship where 5 people can
@europa4033 In addition, every ship is to OP if people who feel pure sweat 24/7 in game there it can even be the small sloop that can sink a lot even 2 galleons at the same time within a few minutes Or even two masts that have just one less than a galleon and are faster in wind and are even more agile than a galleon if something is too balanced is that 100% the two-mast that can turn well that can build up speed well in wind and also good to repair is by the way and there is only one less and then I see The thick tank (galleons 1 person more only) and turn radios over 400 felt then speed lame like a rowing boat apart in the wind but manoeuvrable in contrast to the 2 master very disadvantaged and sloop is okay that 2 24/7 sweaters you in a sloop finish in 5 min about or a 3 man occupy Brig you finish with the very many advantages against the galleon have and as mentioned every ship can be too unbalanced if only 24/7 sweaters are in the lobby the shotgun is also too strong for many and what is other 24/7 people say no it fits so and say yes then just go to calm water or don't play the game I say now honestly if something is not balanced is that the two-master the shotgun and sniper as well as certain OP players who e.g. make the hell hot for beginners because they are on the same server and constantly graze! The two-master is even in advantage of a sloop apart from those who really op players are on it who play every day and do PvP so virtually already in the game life

And I say that as an experienced player who has been playing since Season 6!

If you are of the opinion that 5 people on a galleon is too much or is too unbleanched why are not 2 cannons in a sloop and not 3 cannons in a brigade but with a galleon 4 cannons I am of the opinion that the galleon is too op for many that they get an extra server where only galleons drive and Brigs are allowed and no sloops drive they get their own server and why? Because a galleon and brigade in wind catches up with a sloop and a brigade and galleon can send 1-2 boarder over to a sloop that is alone or two man occupied would only be fair for a sloop or a server where only a 5 one can drive around if you think all since the 5 man would be unbalanced on a galleon! Where I and others are of the opinion that the brigade is very unbalanced because it can catch up with a sloop in wind and also sticks to the rear for a very long time in a headwind oh yes the galleon is also faster in wind than a sloop as far as I still remember!
@rambobrad sagte in Increase number of players on the galeon:
I'm willing to bet people who want more spaces on a galleon don't know what grate bilging is
Dude I've been playing since Season 6 players who play 24/7 every day are felt anyway already to op there they can also come with a sloop and finish you up within a few minutes so fast you can't even do anything anymore! And why are there 4 cannons on a galleon? If it is always one less than the number of players in a brigade and sloop, the galleon has less chances against a sloop anyway because the sloop is very manoeuvrable enough and we don't need to start the brigade anymore, I find it too balanced, in fact, it is faster in wind than a sloop, but still sticks to the rear all the time without wind in a sloop and is also very well manoeuvrable enough for a brigade and there is only one less than with a galleon! In addition, a brigade can also properly finish a galleon because they are very easy to maneuver in contrast to a galleon! And I repeat myself again clearly the op players who are on Sea can also make a sloop into an op ship! Since you have probably never been taken with the galleon in the lack enough by another player Brig and sloop at the same time or 2 brigs, 2 sloops! Obviously! And again the question why is there no two cannons in a sloop or 3 in a brigade? But with a galleon of all things 4?
@rambobrad sagte in Increase number of players on the galeon:

Obviously you have never been properly taken in the tongs otherwise you would also understand that with a galleon!
@heslashthem sagte in Increase number of players on the galeon:
Crew balancing issues is why they have this set at 4 rather than 5.
If something is unbalanced, it is the brigade! Why 3 one less than galleon okay but very manoeuvrable enough almost like a sloop! Galleon has a turn radios from something else! Is slow to turn! Against a brigade and sloop! And yes op players turn even a rowing boat with cannon into an op boat! That's clear but also honestly what is a galleon actually looking for at a server where there are sloops? Who would they be so op? The 1-2 on the sloop against 4? Is it very fair or what🤔 ? If that's what it's about, in my opinion, I would put the brigade and galleons on an extra server where no sloops are allowed on it! To ensure fairness! And the Op players also have nothing to look for on servers with beginners or experienced who also belong to a balanced server with their same strengths! Then we wouldn't need 5 men either! Oh yes, I want a ship where I want to play with all my colleagues without having to spend hours looking for a server where we are both! Or we have to exclude one because there is no room so I say it again either 1 more person on the galleon or a new ship with 5 people! And why is there only 1 cannon on the sloop and only 2 on the brigade but 4 on a galleon?

With all due respect, for someone who has played since season 6 (no idea how many hours you've played since then, but it doesn't sound like a lot) I'm surprised you don't know how to mitigate these things when they occur. From what you've posted, it sounds like your bilge either doesn't know how to bucket-grate, or isn't experienced enough to know when to call for a second bucket. If you know that the sloop is more maneuverable, and can sink a galleon easily despite having just 2 players, it sounds to me as if your cannoneer isn't hitting their shots, isn't firing chainshot effectively, etc.
Do you leave all your sails down when engaging in a fight with another ship?
When your bilge calls for a bucket, do all of you leave your posts and go down?
Do you understand the benefits each ship has in reference to wind direction?
Is your crew organized?
Do you each know your role(s) on your ship?
Does your cannoneer know what to fire, where, and when?
Does your helm communicate with those on the cannons, guiding their shots?
The answers to those questions are important, as an organized ship is difficult to sink. The solution isn't to add another player to the galleon, making the game imbalanced. The solution is to try and figure out what your crew isn't doing (or doing wrong/struggling with). By finding the issue and correcting it, you'll make your next fight go more smoothly. It doesn't matter what season you first started playing, what matters is the amount of time and experience you've learned along the way, so when you get the kraken (octopus), you'll know how to deal with it.
