Upgrade Sloop to 4 Cannons please

  • Odyssee mit Tee

    And no I am not constantly using just a Sloop. ; )
    I am very often participating on a Galleon as well.

    So the reason I suggest this is, the Sloop is supposed not be as strong as a Galleon, but flexible.
    And so why not giving it two more Cannons and enable the Sloop to shoot even more in front as the Galleon?
    Not just putting them besides the two other one's but position them in overall that you can shoot further in front and less to the side's?

    This way this would compliment the Sloops ability to be swift and flexible to attack, but not come close to overpower.
    And when the Sloop is beside another ship, the "front-cannons" can not retract as much.
    So they are not able to double the firepower of the Sloop in the majority of angles.

    But one cannon on each side is just so pitiful and pathetic.
    They are supposed to be an annoyance for full-manned Galleons but its more the other way around.

    Especially if a Galleon just decides to wave goodbye after it tires to fight you, thats it.
    They just put all 3 Sails into the Wind and off they go.
    And you cannot even shoot at them while they gain more and more distance.

    Its just sad. The Sloop is super maneuverable but thats just it. It does not have anything else.
    A superiorly positioned Galleon would of course still outmatch it in firepower.

    I am not asking to buff Sloops actually I just want them to be more fun and grand more options.

    I'm not sure if you've seen the trailer or screenshots for the new 3 person Brig, which is coming with Cursed Sails - with 4 cannons (so it seems) and with the crew management you'd be able to sail this with 1, 2 or 3 players. It might just have those features you're asking for..?

    More details in this article too -

    It is not just about the 4 Cannons but also their positions.

    @schelmflosse300 the sloop is perfect as it is...no need for two more cannons

    I love my sloop. Don't make it more OP and less skill based.

    This is a troll post... right??

    How would you even fire 4 cannons with 2 people max? Where would you even fit a second cannon while we're at it.

    He means 2 cannons per side, giving an increased firing arc and allowing more shots angled towards the front.

    Which it seems very much as if the new Brig will have the option to do :)

    I don't think the sloop needs more cannons especially not having cannons more frontfacing as you suggested. I know you mentioned it as a way to not have 2 cannons firing at the same time, but being able to shoot ships while giving chase would definitely make this a buff to sloops that it doesn't need instead of the "just more fun".

    Why not? That does not mean a "fleeing" Galleon will be endangered by it.
    In the end one guy shooting can never be a real danger for 4 people able to repair and stuff.
    The Sloop feels like a cripple at this point.

    Lets face it, its the 1 Pirat Ship not even the two Pirats Ship, its the thing for those who want to spend some time alone, relaxing and going at their own pace.
    But even by myself I can handle it so fluidly I feel... not stimulated enough.

    Thanks for pointing that out. Most people really have no power left to READ SOMEONES POST PROPERLY, so im really grateful for you to explain this.
    Its like since 2008 people got too 'beeeeeeeep' to use the internet properly.
    You are one of this few shining lights in an increasingly dark age.

    By this logic no team would be able to use the Galleon and would have another Crew man it with them.
    Otherwise how would you ever use all 8 cannons at the same time?

    Wow what for a poorly planned comment. I am disgusted.
    Even on the current Sloop I am pretty sure that two players would never use both cannons against the same target in any case, especially not at the same time.

    And at all those other WANNABE PROGRAMMERS who just hate change in general: " Nobody likes you too! "
    Or thinks that you are cool. You don't impress anyone! With all the stupid things you take pride in.

    How about you read someones post PROPERLY ONCE IN A WHILE you narcistic Hater who cannot deal with just the very concept of someone else posting a suggestion for change, for something which has not changed for quite a while now?

    What happened? Did I bumped into your balls by mistake?
    What delusion of so obviously make believe skill have I hurt that you SPIT OUT the accusation of me trolling while doing it yourself at best?
    .

    It should be obvious that only in rare occassions the Sloop could use two actual cannons to fire at another Ship with both of them at once.
    There would be no "power buff" for the Sloop coming. It would compliment the Sloops ability to be flexible in certain situations.

    A sideways positioned Galleon would still blast the hell out of anything else with much more efficiency.
