Different Hulls. Are they coming to Sea of Thieves?

  • I love this game, but ever since the alpha I have seen one thing... all the ships are the same hull within each class. In the art book (I believe) theres a much better looking galleon, and with the cursed cannon that Wanda broke up, We can guess there will be sets for ships other than paint and figureheads. And with that... I do think adding variants of hulls on each type of ship would be best. The barrels and floor plan would be the same... generally speaking, maybe sole variation to keep up with the theme. Basically, more variation between ships.

  • Found the image I am referring to.

  • More ship customization is coming via microtransactions, to change masts, interiors and other things to your liking.

  • It's called early concept art. The ships have detailed wireframe hitmodels as opposed to the pill people the players are made of. So changing hulls would mean there's an advantage or disatvantage to a certain hull model's hitbox.

    besides that I don't really see a difference with what we have in game.

  • @cheatingpirate ship captaincy for legends!

  • @x1-two really?who said this? hope i can buy it for gold as well

  • @weedstar-deluxe Nobody has said that yet matey... Then only thing confirmed for microtransactions so far are pets.

    I wouldn't mind them expanding it to more areas as long as 90% of the other items were obtainable using in-game gold.

  • @hynieth Well with what you said, that's kinda not what I meant. When it comes to ship hulls, again, the size and floor plan should be generally the same. How ever there could be a new captain's quarter and break heads, which only affects the back and front of the main deck.

  • I remember a post awhile back about moding parts of the ship
    There was some official concept art of the aft section of the Sloop with several different styles
    It might be something further down the pipeline

  • Rather than having different ship hulls I always wanted SoT to have a large selection of ships to sail with, here's a mockup I did of the menu selection for a couple of ships, none of them are like the actual correct name for the ships in the icons, but hey I can dream.

    I saw an interview with Mike Chapman where he said ship customization will also be available on microtransactions. He specifically mentioned cannons as an example, unfortunately, I can't find the source (so many articles to look through)
