What Are The Greatest Features?

  • Im curious what everyones favorite feature or mechanics that were added to the game. We have a pretty vast community who all play for different reasons, and love different things, and i would like to know what peoples favorite mechanics are and what you love about them.

    To start it off, my 2 tops would be captain ships just for the ability to save cosmetics and a name, as well hoarder vaults. While i dont do vaults much, when i do i always love the pressure they put on you to complete them, as well rolling up on some one to discover they are offloading a vault can be pretty fun, and hectic when you find your self in that situation fighting for your haul.

  • One of my favourite mechanics in the game (and one I'm so glad they didn't remove) is sword lunging. Such a great mechanic for movement and efficient for clearing waves of PvE.

    Another one that understated is the addition of one extra pan for cooking on the ship. Simple yet great addition.

    The ability to take items out of barrels and straight into storage crates. Simple and such a great addition.

    In terms of content addition. I always enjoy doing the Legend of The Veil voyages. It's different across each region and gives great loot. Great for stealing / tucking too.

    Another content addition would be Sea Forts. They are under appreciated. They are quick, fun and provide semi-decent loot, great supplies and the designs across each region keeps them unique.

    Now for the one addition I wish they'd remove or change - The Quest Board. Don't know anyone that uses / interacts with the thing.

    The extra pan was a very nice addition! And i do love the quick siphon for crates, though i would change it to only be quick to siphon from your own ship only because i use that mechanic for cheap wins chucking peoples wood overboard!

  • They'd added a lot of good content over the years, but Captaincy is probably my favourite. It really helps create a bond between player and ship that was missing previously. It's not just being able to name it, it's the simple things, like being able to look at the logbook at the end of a session and see how much gold you earned. Being able to sell to Sovereigns is such a big QoL addition that you miss it when it's missing (if you lose Captaincy, say).

  • For me, it’s the little things that affect every session since they were added, like Gunpowder Skeletons, Cursed Cannonballs, Throwables, Harpoons, Rowboats, Storage Crates, etc.

    Even better when those new features come with commendations for usin’ em!

  • Top 5.

    1. Fishing
    2. Harpoon gun (grapple gun)
    3. not much a feature but it’s in the game. Finding plank of wood with a cut out where treasure is. Found at Tall Tale.
    4. sitting. Wish they expand it some how
    5. blowpipe.

    Sitting could absolutely do with an expansion. Its a small thing, but it would make everyone happy!

  • Captaincy/milestones/logbook.

    It would have been nice if it showed up years earlier but there isn't anything in the game that added more to adventure than Captaincy.

    It serves the most piratey of the pirates as much as it serves an old meg hunter like me. Great for stats, individuality, and opening up opportunity for people to play in a way that holds personal significance.

    The bugs have been frustrating, the sacrifices that were deemed necessary (like washed up logbooks and whatever happened to overview stats) have been frustrating but it still changed the game for the better.

    I only play these days because Captaincy exists, it adds that much QoL to my sessions.

  • A couple of my favorites are:

    there is a different feel to each region and it's not the same everywhere.
    the update when they made voyages free and dive-able
    when they made harpooning treasure drop beneath you instead of having to grab it off the line.
    quick store with barrels and storage crates
