Ship "Horns"

  • digitalzomb

    I'd love to see some sort of ship horn, and I don't mean a typical boat horn, but like an actual HORN. Think the Horn of Gondor that you can sound in case of emergency to summon your crew back, or to blow in intimidation before your ram the hell out of a ship!

    Would be quite fun, and should be audible from a long range. However, it would definitely need a cooldown to avoid abuse.

    This could be a purchasable ship item, and different one would have different designs AND different sounds. Think ghostly wails, or bass filled billows.

    Could replace the bells we have on the ship as a customization option.

    Have you seen the PubG Stream Honkers video? If not, basically they would get into games with Streamers and just drive the nearest vehicle to their area laying on the horn. It was super annoying, funny for a bit, but annoying. People in this game grief, attack for no reason, sit in a corner with one action so others do work, etc and you don't expect a horn to get old fast?

    Besides, there are two warning systems on your boat. There is one in the Crow's nest and one on the base of your mast right near your ladder. It is called a bell..... you can ring it and announce to your team to "Take their Battle Stations" or "Emergency."

    @nightmare247365 I suggested a cooldown, and yes I'm aware of stream honkers but I don't think that'd be an issue, especially if the honk was only audible from a reasonable distance, like, earshot of a large island.
