[Mod edit] we all know SOT is slowly dying off, and really should be brought back to life.
Some things that could spark it back is listening to the community.
So I was thinking, maybe a great few ideas I was hoping to see in SOT -- I really would love to sea and I know many agree on is with volcanos... You know how If you are sailing around and that the volcano tends to hit your boat, sometimes it doesnt? But most times... haha you know it hits the boat, especially if you have a keg on top... They will full on shoot at your mast making sure its duty is to hit that mast down......... Please could you let us vote on it it can a in game poll if we could have it changed to just a full on random generated pathway of the volcano hitting places, instead of the boats... Because of this, we know many like to stay away from the devils roar region...
Another great idea, which I know some people get annoyed about is the server merging.. It randomly merges, could there be a possible time limit? - or something to warn itll happen soon? For this, theres been countless times where me and my crewmates died and tried going back to an area to grab a key we stashed without burrying, and it merged servers, where we lose the items.
New Ideas to make SOT more fun and more people to come back and keep playing?
My crew and I were a lvl 5 reaper galleon. We sailed over to the Fleet, and sunk another galleon doing it, completed the event, and took all the loot. Off on the horizon, we see the same galleon headed over to us. We laughed because we knew they were probaby mad at us. We sail east, because we see an emissary out in the Roar. We sink them, take their loot, while this galleon is almost here. I notice a volcano near them is going off, so I sail north planning on driving them into it. They fall for it--I mean, they also turn north to flank us, and head straight towards it (the active volcano was between us, we were out of it's range). We then anchor-turn and head south, which causes that galleon to have to do a U-turn.....around the active volcano. We were laughing so hard watching them get pummeled, de-masted, and set on fire everywhere, knowing they were already mad at us for sinking them. It didn't work out for them very well, since all they wanted was revenge and kept being outsmarted by us (we were just having fun).
You may not like the active volcanoes, but there are times where an enemy of my enemy is my friend, if you can think outside the box and use it to your advantage. Especially if you can have fun with it.
