I would say this would be a pretty fun. Mechanic to have in the game to be able to first fight with or with out a cutlass. While using cutlass be able to throw a punch to throw a pirate off the game in stead of just swinging away would change the game . For pure bare knuckles adding a knock out mechanic would make it fun to have a fight with another crew two ship next to each other and who ever the last stand wins the loot 2 crew standing g around 2 fighters cheering then on. And the bildge rat for it would be great. Where you would have knock out another crew at each out post on Another crew ship and on your own ship. Would be a fun time something I thought about watching a few old pirate movies. And some of items you could get are a champion belt boxing gloves. What do you all think or am I just crazy l**o
BARE KNUCKLE BOXING/FIGHTING
@xcrashrandallx I love this idea as punching is a long requested feature... and this goes into helping me get my long demanded 'Dueling' feature for when you and a crewmate wanna have a fight! A safe way to have a battle with your crew mates and settle the disputes like true pirates!
@xcrashrandallx you are not crazy mate. Just a punching mechanic would be great. We can make up our own contests with it. After all that is what we are supposed to be doing. Would be nice to have left and right punch, an uppercut, and a sucker punch. Bare knuckle crew deck fights while sailing, island pit fights, and drunken tavern brawls! Lots of fun!
@DuMy2008 I want to see a more substance added to our sword swinging to make dueling mean something. Would like an official challenge system that could be with swords, pistols, and daggers which I hope Rare adds. Think if we could climb more on our sails and rigging. Including swinging by ropes as we swing steel.
Would be fun if we can duke it out and duel both our crew mates and other players. Have a few animations for both to add flavor. Like being staggered and knocked out for fist fights, or holding our pistols up while we pace off in opposite directions. Could have options to challenge to a fight or duel, concede, ask for mercy, etc. While still keeping the ability for us to free form these events.
This is a great idea. I'd love to have a bar brawl with other Pirates or just trade a few jabs with a crewmate.
I think, while the current swordplay/fight system isn't that great (since its quite simple) it could translate quite well into fist-fights!And maybe some unique glove rewards, also seem like a pretty cool idea.
@azrael278 right be able to throw a jab while sword play and add a knock out in stead of death would add more to fighting someone off your ship give a little more to a already amazing game
