Rebalance Food

  • so since rare is on an godtier arc right now with all the changes that have been made and are announced it might be the right time to look into food and its HP.

    everyone knows pines are wildly OP and i think there is plenty of reason to make them a 1-bite fruit aswell. i dont see why the best fruit ingame should also be the only one that offers 2 bites. i also think removing bananas wouldnt be unreasonable, the only players eating bananas are newer players anyways. i think it would add to the PVP since it forces players to think more about what to eat instead of blindy spamming away pines.

    and also rework how the foodwheel works. if i have 5 pines on me and eat 5 times, i shouldnt have 5 half eaten pines on me. just make me finish my pine before i grab the next one. its kinda weird. i guess that would be solved aswell if u make them 1-bite.

    i also feel like the foodbarrels(and generaly the supplybarrels) should get buffed. just put a variety of fruit in there so people realize quickly theres better options than bananas.

  • everyone knows pines are wildly OP

    Can’t stop fire damage or poison.
    Even few blunderbombs knock those kids back to red.

    It’s only OP if you’re not prepared.
    While they eat, they can’t do anything else. Leaving them open for more hurt.

    What next. Meg meat (or any meat) needs some nerf? Auto heal and better than pines. Easy to find.

    .> also think removing bananas wouldnt be unreasonable, the only players eating bananas are newer players anyways

    Only top tier players know there importance it seems.

  • Is it that pines are wildly overpowered or is it that no other food is even really worth using? If you are never going to encounter a gun that does less than half your HP in a single hit, then healing half your HP or less means that the next shot will kill you all the same as if you had never eaten more often than not. EoR does 70 damage. Pom heals 40. You now have 70 hp, and are still one shot from another EoR hit, so eating a pom is a waste of time. Or one shot from a good blunder. Pines are actually more in line with the games design philosophy of having everyone on the same playing field since it allows all people to go back to full HP more often. I don't know what kind of issue you are having with food, I hit the food button and it brings out the last piece of food I was holding, which if I ate a pine, it will always give me a half pine.

    Island barrels always have a variety in them, of every fruit in the game. Shipwreck barrels have cooked meats and fruit. We shouldn't give people top tier supplies by default, they should still have to go look for them.

  • @burnbacon bro stop the ragebait pls

  • @l0cke547

    Im giving you feedback on your idea. No rage or bait here. (i never understand kids who cant accept negative feedback)
    Dont get upset over simple feedback on an idea, 1 person simply disagrees and pointed out flaws in your problem.

    Not all ideas are gonna be accepted, and posting on the public "feedback" forums leads to different points of view on the matters at hand. You can't take it, dont reply simple as that.

  • @burnbacon you said only top tier players understand the importance of bananas, that is just a troll sentence no? There is nothing that bananas do better than any other food

  • @burnbacon if bananas were silently removed tomorrow no one would notice. The "important" you mention is presumably using them to heal back to full to not waste you're good food, but let's be real coconuts can do the exact same thing as they're not great food, abundant, but also you can get away with using them in a fight. Bananas are 100% useless.

  • I'm fine with pines being 2 bite. However, I think there should be less of them, and less of all fruit in general. I think players who take the time to prepare cooked food should have a little bit more of an advantage than usual. I also wish that there were temporary buffs that were distributed between the different fish types:

    • Strength - Lift broken masts and turn broken wheels faster.
    • Dexterity - Shorten time for repairing and between throwing knife throws
    • Lungs - Increase underwater breath
    • Salveskin - Decrease overall incoming damage from AOE

    The total length and severity of these buffs can be adjusted based on crew size.

  • @rare-jumbie

    I think there should be less of them, and less of all fruit in general.

    Remove them from being bought and make them island spawned only, no barrels. Only on beaches and like you said, limit them to more rarity.

  • @burnbacon If they did this change I, and most of the people who still play this game, would quit outright. It would just make it unfun, dying over and over, healing worthlessly.
