Skill Gap
I have been seeing a lot of discussion lately about how PVP should be separate from PVE in sea of thieves.
However I haven't seen a lot of discussion about combat itself. Obviously there is the aspect of mastering the boats and cannons. However if we are talking about gun or sword combat it seems somewhat limited to me.
PISTOL & SNIPER
The pistol and sniper in sea of thieves are the middle/long range weapons (however they are used close range a lot) they are almost always used together because a sniper shot plus a pistol shot equals a kill. They are also used together because of a quick switching exploit currently in the game.
BLUNDERBUSS & SWORD
The blunderbuss and the sword are the close range weapons they have no uses at long or median range. The sword is mainly used in close combat or for PVE. The blunderbuss is used commonly in both close up PVP and PVE.
This was a very short post on skill gap combat but a lot of things were missed such as movement and pc vs xbox.
My main question is are the developers shrinking the skill gap between players until it is impossible to beat a crew with more people then you. Or are they open to adding a skill gap to allow smaller crews to take on larger crews.
please comment below I would love to see a wide range of opinions on the topic.
