Custom cosmetics - With very large restrictions so it isn't abused, yes. Here's an idea: It's ridiculously expensive or bought will a great deal of ancient coins (To make custom cosmetics very, very rare), and you can make whatever you want, but it has to go through a human moderator for it to be usable. This is a kind of out-there idea, though.

I agree and I was thinking instead of ancient coins, a paid for app on mobile and pc. You get to design everything and send it in for review. If it follows guidelines it’s approved and since it would be synced with you account you would then find said custom cosmetics in the game itself. And as far as the Captaincy itself I don’t remember all the specifics but I thought it was all about having your own hideout after becoming PL and designing a ship. Please correct me if I’m wrong and explain the Captaincy concept.

There's a we're hiring link at the bottom of the forums. If you want to create your own cosmetics you should go there.

Now I don’t understand this point, this idea is for everyone to make a ship unique to them, not just me. So are you saying that everyone who wants a so unique to them should join Rare just for that reason alone?? I feel like you’re not understanding what I’m saying. Here let me put this into perspective, imagine having your own shop that is named and designed by you, after reaching pirate legend. It would be a way to make your journey unique from everyone else and show of your achievement of reaching PL. this also allows for your ship to have its own “personality” so to speak. Instead of having cosmetics that every player has, or seeing the same cosmetics over and over this allows some creativity and some uniqueness to the game. Plus the ship actually feels like yours, instead of a ship that you loaned from the ship maiden.

Ship naming - Yes, if it works the same way pet naming does.

Captaincy - No. I am one of those very strange people against a captaincy update. Partially because I don't want assigned or even voted upon roles. If you wish to hear my other reasons, feel free to ask.

@italicjungle797 said in Captaincy/custom ship cosmetics:

@ninja-naranja while yes you do get pirate legend only cosmetics, it’s only three, and here I’m talking about custom made, not pre-made. For example, if you want a rubber duckie figurehead and cannons you could make that, name your ship even, actually make your ship unique and feel like yours. You know what I mean?

I think this would be an interesting way to implement NFT.

@italicjungle797 oh I understand. That would be really cool.

@italicjungle797 there are quite a few cosmetics you can only get after being PL.

And we know that there is a new PL voyage coming so that will probably shake up the faction. Hopefully extended ship customization will be on its way too.
