Different Island Bioms

    Have different bioms for islands to add variety to where we're sailing to instead of "tropic island" theme for them all; save for the occasional fort.

    Some Ideas:
    -Desert dunes island
    -Arctic Island
    -Big spooky mansion island from an abandoned Victorian settlement with ghosts to appear/disappear to s***k players
    -Abandoned Temple island from a past civilization
    -Fiery island with a volcano and the sky is darkened and ashened

    There are already Mermaids and Krakens, may as well go nuts with the environment.

    Have some seas get really foggy at times, or have other boss enemies roam the seas. Have other creatures/animals roam the wilds instead of the populace of spitting snakes. Would love to see the Sea of Thieves world get expanded upon, the groundwork is already there.

    Anyone else have ideas, feel free to pitch in!

    Different biomes would be awesome! Each biome has it's own kraken/boss type monster. Instead of sharks in the arctic would be killer whales. Merchant quests consist of penguin delivery. Ice bergs would be rampant causing long pursuit to be tricky. Desert biome would request some type of lizard or rare cactus plant delivery. The monster of the deep would be on the island itself but could hide exceedingly well. Snow covered ships could slow the advance and crews would have to hammer the ice away to keep speed. Clothing could come into play causing the vanity chest to actually have a purpose other than look at me harpooning for whales could change the game exponentially including pvp aspects. Would be nice if I could throw over a lifeline/ring buoy when my crewman fell overboard too.

    They had different islands early in development and decided to not pursue them further. And I think that was a good decision. I'd prefer if they added one or two different maps to the game which focus on something else besides the tropical/caribbean theme. I don't think an arctic island would work with the map we have now.

    @x1-two the map would have to be expanded for sure.

    "An island that has kissed death and an cursed arctic wind blows through it's beaches".

    A Lot of good ideas here. Volcanos for one, Fire in general would add an interesting twist, fog is an amazing idea

    @dutchdeadschot sort of like Indiana Jones style? I can dig that

    What about going onto a jungle-like island and getting attacked by a panther while trying to catch a monkey!? Would always have to watch your back for things could sneak up on you

    Unfortunately there is a limit to the map size of all games and the U4 engine is no different.

    However, they could produce different maps run on specific servers. Then it's the luck of the draw as to which world you are sailing in. That alone would boost interest in the game.
