    I suggest to bring friendly fire among crewmates as an votable option in game.

    i'm pro friendly fire since start.
    Would also lead to many funny situations where people hack and slash and shoot skeltons mindlessly when crewmembers around ^^

    @bugaboo-bill Aye, shenanigans ensuring of it would be comedy gold :D But it would also give crewmates a chance for a stress-free pvp training

    It’ll never be voted for among PvP players because who would want friendly fire when they’re boarding someone?

    Friendly fire, if it ever is implemented at all, should just be like a thing and not be put as a setting or vote.

    Maybe bring it into Arena?

    Im a pvp guy and i wouldnt mind friendly fire. I dont usually need to board anyone. If you are good at ship combat there is no need.

    I dont really care one way or the other about friendly fire. It was around for the cannons for a little bit and it didnt really effect my crew at all.

    But still, for the ones who are boarded, FF would be nice so then they aren’t getting completely annihilated while the enemy just stands there and keeps killing you.

    That would lead to team killing though. It's easy to grief right now, this would make it easier. Making it votable for duels and stuff would make griefing harder with it, but still have it as an option.

    Friendly Fire shouldn't be a whole crew thing, personally.

    I would rather ot be an individually toggleable option in the Crew Management section of the menus.

    P1: FF-On (Opt-in)
    P2: FF-On (Opt-in)
    P3: FF-Off (Default)

    P1-P2: Can damage each other.
    P1-P3: Cannot damage each other.
    P2-P3: Cannot damage each other.

    This way nobody can be griefed by being forced into friendly fire, and can opt back out quickly. This would also allow a part of the crew which likes FF to not be hindered by the rest.

    EDIT: I also think FF should be on for cannons at all times :)

    Well, that’s why you don’t trust randomers.

    I’m talking about between closed crews really. Friends, who can take a joke.

    Maybe, have it so it’s mandatory in Closed Crews. But put it to a vote in Open Crews?

    You would be greatly surprised on the amount of PvPer's who would want this. However, boarding goes beyond using cannons as cover fire. Their is a long list of ways to get aboard ships, cannon cover is only one.

    @nabberwar

    ?? I am aware. But it’s not fair to the ship under attack that they can be spawn killed by someone who’s literally getting pelted with cannonballs but not dying.

    Fairness has nothing to do with it when both ships have identical tools at their disposal. That is a level playing field in the purest sense.
