Fairly certain this is already planned for the future. The sea in it's current iteration is far to small, and server capacity smaller still. What I'd prefer before this is ownership of vessels. Having a ship I can customize inside, and out. Decide where things go, and the sort. Maybe even install a piano, or organ in the cabin!

@corkedasp295171 ok idea I guess but they're going to add a man 'o war in the near future

I can hear all the PVP haters from here if that got introduced Haha

First of all Welcome to the Forum

This gets asked for a lot around these parts.
Personally as the game stands I believe it would unbalance the game.
Now... with that said.
It occurs to me if they were to split the servers, then this might possible.
Whether there is a will to do so is another matter.

Option One

• Standard server setup Sloop, Brig, Gally

Option Two

• Big Ship Server, ie populated with Gally & "New Ship Type" only.

I'm pretty certain this wouldn't happen, but maybe a method to accommodate a larger ship class & also to help maintain a balance in player experience.

The other issue is that if this done, other requests for PvP or PvE servers, Crossplay, no crossplay... the list is endless in their combinations.
Raises it's head into this mix. It would also technically divide the player base further... so not a great fan of it.

Not something I would like into the game... but I can see & respect why others might.

edit: Just to complicate things further :)
There could be a option to join the so called "Big Ship Server" with a sloop if you like at your own risk.
Personally me in a 1 man sloop vs an 8 hands Man-O-War well.... I think we know the result :)
