Secret base

@octopus-lime
I know most people won’t like the selling of items in the base zone but I love the idea of starting in a secret location and driving through a waterfall. That and the customizable bases

very similar to an idea i had about private islands. i like the idea of driving a boat through a water fall to get there though. my idea was to just drive off the map into fog which would then transport you there

@goedecke-michel the game tries to spawn you away from people. im never worried about people rolling up on me while im grabbing supplies lol, if you are you must spend waaayyy to much time getting sups

The game tries to spawn you away from people but it doesn’t always happen. I was at an outpost and a new player spawned in the tavern as I was trying to sell an Athena chest. Lucky I sold it before I died. The problem is, I didn’t park my ship when it normally spawns. As far as the game knew, there was no other player on that island.

The legend hideout deffinatly need to give us more reason to go down there other than just buying PL voyages. Fingers crossed something in the mega update is coming.

I hope they create a secret area that players can customize. I think it would be cool to set sail through a waterfall

@coffeelight5545 that dude was probebly camping there waiting for you. or his ship sunk and he was chilling there. or your ship sunk and he spawned there

@r3d50v13t what is the point of customizing your ship and your outfit? It doesn’t make your ship faster and the outfits don’t make you stronger. All they do is allow you to add your own personal touch. My base idea may be pointless but I would love the opportunity to decorate my own personal space. Plus, I think the waterfall idea is cool.

Difference from a STATIONARY customizable thing than a NOT stationary character and vessel

Does it really matter if its stationary or not?

@coffeelight5545
Yes. Thank goodness that special idea won't bear fruit

What special idea is that? The secret base? I truly hope my idea comes true

@r3d50v13t
I honestly don’t know if Real even listens to us. You get half the people complaining about the changes and others saying the changes are good. I feel this place is more for us to express our opinions than to suggest future content

Honestly, I love the different color flames of the fates. I was hoping that I could store them in my secret base and use them every time I start a new session. They look cool and I wouldn’t have to die by lightning over and over again

@r3d50v13t how dont you see a point, people have been making points, just read. il tell you some now, you could show off your trophies there and have fun with crew mates there. you would always spawn there instead of a random outpost. it would be your own place that you can customise, a place to call home. the seas call to us but everyone has one true home

@r3d50v13t also you never said why it matters that the island would be stationary?. the clothes on your body stay on your body, what does it matter. i dont get your point about them being non stationary. obviously the captain can invite people to the "secret base" so other people will be able to view it

There is essentially no point to customizing your character or ship. There is no point really. My idea may be pointless but I like the idea to customize my own area.

@r3d50v13t I actually like that idea. also why does it matter that you can move around with the paint job on your ships or your clothes?

@r3d50v13t we have green and white nametags to identify other crews and dif body shapes. also you can customise your secret bases to make them different from other peoples secrett bases so you can identify that it is not theirs lol why does it matter that it isnt mobile. would it be ok if the secret base was on the back of a giant moving turtle. each person has a secret base, maybe you unlock it after leveling up or you buy it. once you have it it works the same way it does in gta, there should be a captain system in the game. but anyways the person on the helm or last person on the helm is the person whos secret base you are going to. if its something everyone has access to, it would be the same as a ship. everytime you log on you go and you customise it. I would prefer that it was a menu thing, maybe the person who makes the party or the ship is the captain and thats whos base you are gonna spawn at. if it works with the crew, then you are just showing off your crews achievements. titles are pretty poo, you can only show one at a time and you have to walk up to the guy and read what it says. sure theres pirate legend clothing but thats about it. I dont want it to be a safe place, I want it to be open to attacks. i like the idea of your hub where you can play card games and watever

otherwise im kinda thinking a giga ship would be cool, one that allows for more customisation options like throwing up a kraken tentacle or skull. putting meg jaws and stuff up. decorating the captains quarters and other poo like that

@r3d50v13t just a cool new place to call your own. its like having a land ship. it allows us to have fun with our friends. I would be perfectly ok with them having a mega outpost that has special minnigames on it or something. but I would like something personal even more. also it can be something you can sink cash into, buying better looking customisations for your base. what did the pirate legend hideout add to the game?? its the same thing, would it not be cool even if it offered no cosmetics or voyages, I would still love to go down there to drink a few grogs, imagine being able to customise and decorate the cave down there. a place where you can look at all your accomplishmesnt ya know?

@r3d50v13t whats the difference between the PL location and a secret base. a secret base provides "an act of feeling accomplished" like you earned alot of money by working hard in voyages and hunting monsterus beasts. "there's a whole new air to it" bruh you cant even say on with hard before it lol wut cmon

I'll jump in here. While I agree it would be cool to be able to showcase achievements other than in your title, I think this should be something to customize on your ship rather than a land base. Maybe add a Ship Cabin option in the ship customization chest at the shipwright that allows you to display your Hungering Deep trophy or what have you. I also would love to sail through a waterfall, but I agree with @R3D50V13T that it should be a place open to everyone or perhaps a new feature for the PL Hideout. Your ship is your base in this game, I think a private island would be overkill.

I don’t think it’s overkill at all. I like the creative aspect of this game and hope they will take it farther. When you start out on a ship, you have nothing worth stealing so why does it matter where you start? I can understand that having merchants in the base would be a bad idea. My solution for that is to not be able to take treasure in the base zone. If you took treasure in there, it would become decoration and nothing more. Essentially meaning that you can never sell it ever.
