First off allow me to gush about how I LOVE this game!
I’m not going to engage in debates about balance, PvE and PvP, etc...I just want to create a post where I gush about all the things I wish for the game content wise.
-
Ancient Temples - Skull forts are great and all but I would love something that is a little more puzzling. Ancient temples would rise from the sea for a limited time (1 or 2 hours). One would be able to see this temple as a shining beacon of light shooting straight to the sky. Crews will have a limited time to enter the temple, solve riddles, AVOID TRAPS (rooms filling with sand that you scoop with your bucket, swinging axes, timed running, etc). This would essentially a dungeon where at the end, you can lower the GEM that was acting as the beacon, and maybe this can be an instant merchant purchase or an auto-level up with a trading company. This would make the GEM very desirable...If you don’t solve the dungeon within the time frame, the temple sinks, with you in it...
-
Portable ammo boxes - I would love to be able to port around an ammo box. The ones located on the galleon and islands are much too hard to access. What if you could carry the ammo box? Maybe it would have a certain number of reloads. All in all I would also like to see more instances of cannonball, banana, and wood plank crates throughout the world.
-
New tool - Gliders - now I know this is a sailing game, but wouldn’t it be great to temporarily glide from a high point on an island to your ship or glide from the crows nest to another ship? I love the cannon mechanics and sword dash, but this could bring a whole new level of movement to the game. People could practice gliding and catching the wind, maybe even dive bomb with a barrel in hand!
-
Cursing other players - maybe we can have a potion that makes players look like an animal (goat, frog, pig) for a limited time. It’s a bottle you would throw and the player would have to walk around looking weird for about an hour. Different sound effects could be added so everyone can have a good laugh...
Anyway, thanks for reading. If you like ANY of the ideas put forth please upvote and comment, if not, find me on the seas and tell be in person (but I can’t promise I won’t run you through)
Happy sailing!
