Chinese boat was my idea >:(
For me definitely got to go with new ship types. That’s something I’ve thought sot has been lacking since I started five years ago. As a boat nerd i find sots ships very “basic”. Like no riggings, driver or jib sails and no proper roping like stay ropes etc. But idk this would bring 🥸
For a sea monsters they need to add the sea serpent or cthulhu
Would like to se Hunters Call quests, were you can hunt sea-monsters.
Being able to be 4 people on a brigg and 5 on a galleon.
A "rowboat" with a small sail instead of oars and with a cannon that spawns like other rowboats.
More world events i the devils roar so people can fight over there instead of the rest of the world.
New viewer here, new to sea of thieves! I love your content, but (and I mean no disrespect here at all) I clicked the link to buy one of your PC's and those PC's are incredibly overpriced. I'm sure your probably taking whatever sponsors you can get (I wouldn't blame you), but as your channel grows try to keep your viewers best interest in mind a bit more. I wouldn't even bother with this message, but those prices are criminal for what you're getting.
I think something smaller is also needed, like more things to do in downtime scenarios. I often find my crew tend to go on their phones (I am also guilty of this) when we just casually sail around. Adding things like card games that players can play together on the ship would be amazing just for immersive reasons. Just things to do in downtime would be an amazing addition to the game.
Maybe gambling some gold at the same Time
Or maybe spice up cooking or something
@@aa-rj7nspretty sure they already said they wont do gambling due to rating restrictions
@@aa-rj7ns won't happen, the age rating for the game would go up.
More shanties, there's not many and like half of them are locked behind tales and adventures
More action based features , like creating a zipline between ships with your harpoon but the enemy crew can cut it with a sword to send you to the sharks
Or a gun, don't force everyone to use a sword
@@sSteppingStones good idea if players noclip through the harpoon rope
@@sSteppingStonesI think it’s better to slow sweats
Like we already have a Zipline in the tall tales of monkey island , it could easily be implemented in the adventure mode
@@aguyonyoutube4sure no! Sword takes no skill
I always thought Hunters call expansion would be perfect for the game because there are so many that love the PvE aspects.
Raise hunters call to 75 and pitch a new tent at each outpost with a safari/hunter style NPC.
Add quests to go to Island/area of water
Quest example: kill a bunch of Boars and then a 'Boss' Boar that has some unique attacks and drops a tusk that is of 10k+ value.
You could do this with multiple animal types - Hammer head sharks, killer whales, sea turtles, dolphins, jaguars, giant crab.. the list goes on.
Yeah! always liked the hunting part in AC Black Flag!
This one devs this is the one
Inb4 double gunners cry
Or HC voyages to hunt after megs/krakens/ocean crawlers like OOS but Sea Monsters. Would even work if they added a new Sea Monster to the game. They could even finally add the allusive Kraken Chest that lures the kraken to the ship thats carrying it (its what sank the Silver Blade) as a high level voyage for HC, at like level 70 or 75
Unforunately, this will never happen, bc, Rare HATES pve players, all their decisions and game mechanics proves this.
I'd love if SOT has a pré-lobby outpost to meet with more 16players, chat, play checkers, sing, dance, meet players to create a crew etc. Like a "Port Merrick Lobby" option at the menu. Just the outpost with players, no ships, no events, no gold.
TDM!
this a really great idea. Something like the lobby in cod ww2 would be amazing. they had a pre game lobby like your talking about where you could meet randoms, shop new guns, meet people, 1v1 eachother, play small minigames, and just chillout with friends. I definitely think more games should add this.
kinda like a pirates hideout would be dope
That sounds absolutely horrible.
@@anon556 why is that?
I would love if Rare brought some more life to the seas, for example some sort of npcs that maybe attack outposts and then the player sees it marked on the map and has to choose to help capture or defend the outpost, maybe even recapture the whole thing or just have skelly ships/fleets that are attacking outposts or sea forts and you could see npcs from an outpost fighting skellies. I just want the seas to be lively in a way where pve interacts with each other and the player can choose what they do about it
I even think that this would of worked great for the reapers vs golden sands event, where the reapers send npc ships to attack the outpost from time to time and the player chooses if he wants to help golden sands or wants to see it fall
Ive seen that happen between a meg and skelly galleon and plenty of fights with ocean crawlers ghosts and skellies.
A feature (pipe dream) that my friends and I discuss about would be a guild hall for the new guilds. Imagine 6 locations on the map that are empty, but when a guild ship loads in one of those empty spots has that guild’s guild hall appear. You could decorate it, improve it, etc. as you guild level advances, and you have levels with other factions, you could even hire a guild rep for your guild hall for a remarkably high price. Now your guild hall isn’t just a place to hang out, it’s a semi-private sanctuary that your guild can see when it’s on the map. BUT! Since guild halls are on the server, other ships can interact with them too! I thought it would be fun to have 3 archetypal halls. The tavern, the hideout, and the fortress. The tavern would act as a trade hub, with drinks and reps. Guilds could make monkey here as a small cut whenever another player buys a drink or sells their loot here. Guilds would need to fund upgrades and expansions not out of their personal wallet, but their guild’s wallet. Taverns can’t hoard treasure but gain money from commerce. Hideouts are wild-looking islands that you deposit your wealth into by burying treasure on the island itself. The treasure sinks into the guild’s treasury which other players can attempt to loot, but has all kinds of winding tunnels and nasty traps. Caves, hidden passages and wrecked ships as makeshift housing would be part of this aesthetic. The fortress is a straight up PvP centric guildhall. You can buy more fortifications and deposit wealth directly into the hall’s vault. You could get skeletons to help defend your fort with servant of the flame levels and phantoms with guardian levels. Buy more cannons, and make the task to lower the fort’s portcullis so your ship can sail inside the walls and loot the treasury directly. Another feature guild halls could have is persistent supplies for guild members. You’ll need to feed a bunch of empty barrels (all of which have smaller limits than usual) but those barrels don’t lose the supplies in them when the ship signs off.
I was just thinking about a similar idea with owning Islands that when you spawn in appear on a specific predetermined spot on the map (of course enough so that the whole server each has a spot) and then build up a base of sorts or village/house/fortress that you can work towards, decorate, etc. I like your idea better though as it is very well thought out.
Dueling teammates would be sooooo fun, and hopefully not to hard to implement
I've been waiting for years to get my teammate back for kegging me that one time...
in arena hideout!!!
Borderlands have been doing it well for years, rare is just lazy and likely see it as a way to grief new players (tricking Swabbies into accepting the duel) but we do that with hourglass already (convince a Swabbies crew to dive when they have no idea what it is)
@@chriswilbur1356it could be an opt-in sorta thing. Maybe in the my crew tab you can turn it on, then it gives a brief warning.
Asking another crew is just wayyyy too inconvenient, id rather be able to just duel while sailing to pass the time.
@@captainshelf7 I agree, but rare would see the 'potential' to grief with. I've convinced a couple galleons of noobs to dive hourglass with no clue of what it is, some will find a way to grief with it (I hope it comes but again, Rare is lazy)
different ship types would be great! love the idea of having ships for merchants that are efficient for cargo transport, or ships that have heavy cannon fire, or ships that are better at getting close to others for boarding, etc (also means theres more captained ship types to buy)
adding on this. maybe ships that are locked behind barriers. not neccesarily better in every way than the rest. but maybe you get merchant level 50 and you get access to a barge, that comes with more harpoons, a lockable room with a captains key, 4 man vessel most likely but with only 4 or 6 cannons dotted more evenly around.
maybe reapers 50 gets you a frigate, with access to cannons under the deck for safety from snipers, and a slow but maneuverable ship, but you are marked on the map for everyone to see even without emmisary, or it sinks the fastest (balanced by the fact that you can use cannons under deck.) maybe a 3-4 man ship with 3 spread out cannons on each side with lower visability but raisable covers on the cannons for extra protection.
How about Gold Hoarders 50 gets you a 2 man ketch, a bit faster and bigger than a sloop with 2 sails, they may have 2 cannons like the sloop even though they were just working craft. they could have 1 bow and stern harpoon for grabbing loot. but to balance they could have to really slow down to make turns. but maybe to balance them from just running away constantly, if you get too much loot stacked up, your ship slows down, to the same speed stats as a sloop.
I have no idea about a order of souls ship though. maybe one that has swivel guns to shoot the skeletons, but those arent added into the game (yet)
For Athenas, they should just add a big old ship, 6-8 man ship of the line type thing. 8 cannons, 4 harpoons, space for like 2-3 row boats. 3-4 massive sails, 8 man anchor, or maybe 2 4 man anchors. slowest ship in the game unless it has full frontal wind (so galleons have to run like sloops) fat 4 decker ship, 4 different ladders, 2 crows nests. also a cool new ferry of the damned.
And finally, last but not least, Hunters Call 50, maybe a bark or sumn could even have. coming stocked with 2 full bait barrels, 2 cannons (to fight off kraken or meg), fastest ship in the game (in a storm). has pumps to rid of water. hardest ship to sink in the game as to defend against kraken and meg when fighitng it with so little cannons. you would best be chill when you see these ships as they went though a mission to get it.
(the bildge rat ships are just the base 3 that are automatically unlocked, just as their faction has no leveling)
(the reaper and athena PVP factions could give you unique cosmetics for their ship types)
(damn this was originally just meant to be "yeah maybe some ships for reaching 50 in each faction" )
also would make sense that skelly ships have access to the gold hoarder ketch, and the reapers frigate
and merchant missions could feature the barge.
ferry of the damned could be a ship of the line.
Could come across a hunters call vessel sunken laying next to a corpse of a shrouded ghost as a tall tale or secret spot on the map frequented by the storm.
etc
bro this is such a good idea, also love the idea of hunters call having the hardest ship to sink lmao @@demonexirr
All of this sounds cool but a nightmare in terms of balancing. Also galeon is already unplayable without an experienced crew... wouldn't wanna be on the 8 man open crew ship
yeah 100% but its just an idea with at least a reason. it would take atleast a year to design, balance, add all cosmetics, etc and have it ready to ship in game. but hey its cool nonetheless@@rafaelmesaglio1399
They should add a rare white meg at some point. they could call it the shrouded ghost and make the chances of seeing it next to impossible.
Yep, because it doesn't exist now.
@@papapeachesxcq they removed shrouded?
@@RE-zl7syit never existed
New ship types would be great. I am tired of looking at the same 3 ships. And a new sea monster could be the start of the hunters call being a monster hunter faction that sends you on quests to hunt various monsters.
I think adding more ships with the same crew requirements as current ships would be an amazing addition. Similar to choosing a weapon loadout, it would incentivize players to figure out what’s best-suited to their play style
Imagine if they added "modules" to the ships that we could put on the ship, like an aerodynamic bow, which would make the ship faster but it would be much more unstable, Put a coating on the hull that would make it twice as strong but slower and the anchor wouldn't stop it, or put a frontal cannon on the ship so you would only have a small view of the sea.
all of these ideas are actually wonderful and would be such a great addition to the game in their own rights
I'm personally excited about the PvE servers. I never liked PvP. Quit playing because of them.
skill issue@@pepperVenge
@@superrainbowpopcorn5453 That and I hate playing with people I don't know.
@@superrainbowpopcorn5453a game that requires hundreds of hours to be enjoyable is doomed to fail. Once you get good it's likely that you won't enjoy the game as much anyway, because yoi already spent 1k hours doing all it had to offer
Ability to duel, new world events, and additional toys for the sandbox. One awesome suggestion would be to have a prybar or boarding axe that would allow you to remove the boards on repaired holes. Taking just as long to pry as it does to repair
Sorta annoying because then you HAVE to repair your captained ship which was always supposed to and still is a cosmetic thing rather than a practical one.
THIS
Duelling your team-mates would add days of fun
I realized when hour glass got the "match making" feature working properly that this same tech could have been applied to regular adventure mode. The mythical swabie server may have been a reasonable way to create safer seas. Same would hold true for open crew.
No thanks, there's a number of reasons that wouldn't be fun. There's no metric for measuring the vast kinds of experiences that players aim for on high seas. In HG, you measure the MMR by clearly defined wins and losses within a closed environment with limited variables. HG is competitive, adventure is not. That's the whole point of HG, to be the competitive PvP that many seek. This would be horrible in adventure, where there's so many variables that you'd need to account for, many of which aren't measurable. The ones that are measurable wouldn't even work, like times sunk or world events completed. You can easily cheese every single part of the game to manipulate where the MMR puts you.
Even if it did work, you'd be essentially segregating the community into categories based on metrics they may not be intentionally grinding. MMR only works where there is a competitive intention.
Absolutely not. The lack of SBMM is one of the things that make this game great. Is that player in the distance coming at you a god, or garbage? Only one way to find out.
The new sea monster is cool, but it would be better to just fully expand the Hunters Call and make them an actual faction!
Making them a real faction with a bunch of new sea monsters sounds good to me.
More Instruments! Gimme a dang Violin! or Bagpipes! a Flute maybe even. and more shanties!
Agree wholey. Violin and tin whistle missing, but banjo present baffles me. More shanties for sure, especially ones that are actual shanties.... like weatherman or leaver her johnny leave her, etc
SCOTLAND FOREVER!!!!
@salgoragarus5854 hmm Scottish pirate songs you say? Can inagine rolling up on someone blasting Alestorm's "F#*&@d by an anchor" . Or at least a little nore kid friendly keelhauled lol.
I'd like to see a bounty system. As a solo slooper, a bounty system would give me some degree recourse when sunk by another crew if I could put, say, 10k on a captains head. It could also open up a new gameplay loop if bounties could be picked up on Outposts and hunted down. Dont want a price on your head, pay the bounty at designated points on the map. That and another zone please Rare!!
I would add a cool down timer as well.
If you sink the same ship more than twice in a row, you activate a cool down timer where you can't attack them for however long
@@Son0PoseidonNo. How would the game tell the difference between someone you are hunting down vs a trollish sloop that keeps assaulting your fof and getting sunk repeatedly?
@peachespantao4934 Well, I'm not a game dev by any means, but perhaps the amount of treasure on board/discovered (within a certain amount of time) could be some determining factor.... but that might get a little convoluted and probably be a buggy mess
Probably the easier way would be to just make the bigger world events immune to bounties
Bounties, in my opinion, would be merely for limiting unwanted PvP. If you're doing a Giant Glowing Cloud event, you should probably expect company
Hunter's Call overhaul
-add emissary flag
-raise level cap
-add fishing quests
Guild Emissary boosts Hunters Call Rep, but you got to turn in at Sovereigns.
Pitch a new tent at each outpost with a safari/hunter style NPC.
Add quests to go to Island/area of water
Quest example: kill a bunch of Boars and then a 'Boss' Boar that has some unique attacks and drops a tusk that is of 10k+ value.
You could do this with multiple animal types - Hammer head sharks, killer whales, sea turtles, dolphins, jaguars, giant crab.. the list goes on.
@@Jawmax I’d like them to add a dedicated hunters call emissary flag with ranks that level up when you catch fish. Trophy and rarer fish would give better xp. They’d have to add a hunters call table to the outposts. They could also give us a dedicated fish storage crate so other crews could steal your fish
@@w4rriorehor a voyage that spawns a meg when you go into open water
I'm surprised he didn't say anything about the boarding axe, that's always seemed like the most requested feature besides a world expansion, at least to me anyways.
I am kinda with the others about a new sea monster. I want them to add a sea monster but make it actually fun to fight. I also think it would be a great concept to have the sea monster inhabit a whirlpool of some kind bc I feel that would be cool to see in SoT
Adding a true solo ship as newbie's mainly solo while they try the game out, before inviting friends.
Slight touch ups to the current ships eg. small additions/quality of life improvements.
A new sea monster eg Giant Crab, Hydra or sea dragon and a new biome type on the map possibly linked to the monster.
Lastly a new weapon eg possibly a musket.
I love the idea of more ships. I think if they were to make 2 versions of each ship size that would be amazing. Also, it would be really cool if they turned the hunter's call into a world boss type faction. Give us the ability to specifically hunt down large monsters like the kraken or the megs and bring back trophies from them to sell at hunter's call.
Would love some different ship types. The way you explained how the Coral Fortress could be a World Event sounds like it would be a lot of fun!
I would personally love to see the variations on ships, with the eastern winds set style or even spanish style ships, or just faster cutter style ship. It would create changes in hourglass battles and how fast you can sail the seas to get more loot or beat an opponent to the world event. It would create a massive change for something relatively small.
I like the idea of the hunters call getting expanded on with voyages that are based around hunting sea monsters giving you more of a reason to grind them plus it gives those of us sea monsters hunters a faction to represent
Would love for the tiny rowboat with a mast that Jack has in PotC, always wanted that little thang in Sea of thieves
I wanna see the skelly curse stuff and it's related "story" elements expanded. Maybe something for the ghost curse players too. However I think the skelly curse is currently a wasted opportunity
A New Player Activated Event like FoTD I totally agree.
But I've always hoped this would be use at Molten Sands Fortress, give us a reason to go there though.

Pve is fine wnot everyone wants players constantly targeting them
@@eeefe972trust me, these people love bullying people that do pve
@arbalest327 oh I know I played this game when it first released lol
@@eeefe972 just had a guy spam invite me 200+ times to a party because I locked him in the brig on a gally for griefing, he even sent a ton of Xbox messages to get people to try and kill us but to no avail, they were all terrible like him lol. People in this community genuinely need to go to a mental asylum
I'd love to see different fighting mechanics depending on the type of sword you're using as well as a real mortar canon in the middle of a type of ship :)
Instead of an ice zone, I could see a Blizzard being added. Maybe it roams the world like the regular storm, carrying chunks of ice and coating islands in snow; maybe it is something you can summon on an island, or a ritual to turn the current storm from rain to snow and back again. In either case it could have additional challenge with better loot if you fight enemies/get treasure while in the blizzard.
I would really really LOVE some more community driven events like that time with Golden Sands Outpost! I wasn't a player back then but it sounds so cool to work for a faction and battle other factions and then have it actually have an impact on the game!
i want a sort of "pirate war" event where a certain call can be rung and every player in multiple servers can join in a sort of match making system to the start a huge battle against a skeleton fleet, kinda like how the brethren court has been called in PotC at worlds end, and the call that the players receive can take form as a server message similar to the message you get when 2 or more servers merge into one.
Arsenal customization on your ship would be a game changing addition. What I mean by this is say you have a sloop like normal, but before logging in you can swap the positions of the cannons with your harpoons. Even better, have one cannon on the broadside and one to the rear, giving a lopsided but interesting strategy for anyone chasing you. This was an option in AC4: Black Flag, and while that was a level-based navel system I can still see some interesting strategies used for this. Cannons on the broadside will still be strategic due to circling around the ship, but on the front or back you would have new navel PvP types. Chasers can fire from afar against those running, and runners can attempt to widen the gap by firing from behind (maybe only limit the rear to one cannon though).
Granted, the brig and galleon may be more challenging to adapt to this type of combat, but to fix that you create a balance system where a certain number of cannons have to be placed on certain sides to be balanced, and having them in the front or the rear may reduce the number of cannons entirely to be used. Better yet, with the galleon, finally allow the option to have cannons on the midfloor inside the hull at the benefit of being hidden behind the hull but also at the consequence of reduced range and visibility.
If the devs could find a way to balance this out this would be a major game changing mechanic. Hell, imagine the chasers trying to fire boarders to those they are chasing from directly behind, and seeing just how the rear cannons will either wreck the chaser ship or even get a lucky one-ball shot off those in mid-air.
In a game with so many cosmetics I would've expected 'equipment/cosmetics loadouts' to be a thing a long time ago. Just like they added a way to save your ship cosmetics, it would be great to be able to save various clothing/weapon/equipment loadouts, and be able to switch between them easily.
There should be a gambling room up the stairs in the bare you start in where you can gamble with your guild members. And one of the games in the gambling room can be like the arena mode butt with only your guilds members
for me, it's been a new weapon. The one I have in mind is a grappling hook and here's how in my mind it would work.
1. it takes up a weapon slot, meaning you have to ditch a gun or cutlass to have it.
2. it can act as a melee weapon but does a lot less damage, was thinking like 20% or lower.
3. so to use it you would aim with let's say the left triggers of an controller and then hold right to start a wind up where you would start to spin the rope and release right to throw. It makes a load tuink when you hit a ship so the crew know they have a border and can be shot or kicked off. Once on a ship you hold right to pull yourself onto the ship. The other way I thought of would be to aim for the mast or sails and swing over.
One of the talks around my friends group is ship customization. We have always thought that the dry dock at Port Merrick would one day be a ship customization that's what I would like to see have added to the game.
Things I would like: barnacle growth on ship over time, causing damage to boarders getting keelhauled, resets with ship restore. Customizable harpoon, lanterns, and bell would be an awesome addition as well. The ability to swap ship sizes in-server would be cool, Port Merrick, or the Sea Dogs tavern would be great spots for this. Speaking of Sea Dogs, there should be something there, parkour race with leaderboards, or a sovereign tent would be great.
I think for world events, like mentioned at the end there, should still be megs... but also add that giant sea montser where (if they want) all players in the server have to get together to take down but also adding your idea with the loot tower inside, with a cool coral COL, sounds awsome!! lol
I personally would like for there to be minigames added at some of the outposts or ships. Like, at Port Merrick, there could be a poker table where you can gamble in-game gold and anyone from any crew can join. After a hard day of earning gold, you could stop in at your local tavern to have a chance to win even more or fret it all away. You could have other games like Black Jack or even Liar's Dice, as seen in Pirates of the Caribbean. Just small stuff like that which can provide a new aspect to the game that's much more chill and could add to the role playing aspect to the game.
Great points. Ive always wanted to see a whirlpool type event pop up. Where say you fight a sea monster while being sucked in the whirlpool and any ships that got near would be sucked in as well so they cant just sit on the outside and shoot to you. If you go into or fall into the waters you get sucked down and drown. Could do several cool things with it
Abit like the end of pirates but with a hydra or some shit in the middle of
@@Knightsking917 exactly. Thats what gave me the idea. Was such an awesome scene
one that I want and one that a friend of mine wants
I want an extra step to the barrel disquise emote where a player can interact with you as any normal barrel, they would be able to look at your inventory but either they won't be able to collect OR they will be able to collect but you wouldn't lose your supplies
My friend wants the Blunderbuss to be nerfed because in his eyes it's becoming the ultimate crutch, to which I partially agree because the rarest thing in the game these days isn't the shrouded lie but a crew that doesn't use the blunderbuss instead... his suggestions on the nerf is to either have it not be a one-shot kill and instead leave you with "the magic pixel of health" or keep it a one-shot but make it so that every time you pull it out you have to reload it
Hunter's call expansion. Megladon encounters drop a Meg tooth trophy, maybe a poison gland trophy from kraken, etc. Emissary weight system for fishing. Where the emissary grade turn in bonus is built into the size of your fish. There is no need to level up a flag for the turn in. It's built into the fish's weight. Maybe some voyages like the old fishing voyages that were time limited.
The last one sounds like it would be an amazing/simple addition and more ways to get coral loot would be great too.
I want a visual chain and anchor coming from the capstan, and when you drop the anchor you will actually see the chain in the water and the anchor itself at the bottom of the sea if the bottom is visible. Also, i want PL level voyages for the other trading companies! Maybe protecting an npc fleet from skelly ships for the Merchants, or fighting a skelly liche for the Order, or taking a citadel filled with gold for the Hoarder!
Whacking a small sail on the rowboat would be pretty useful. It'd still be clunky as a means of transport, but marginally less so.
I wish Hunters Call had an overhaul with animal bassed boss fights like a giant boar or snake, as well as a sea monster or two. These could be tied to order of souls-esq hitman quests.
I think ship variation would add more depth to the game and the highly requested Sea Serpent would be amazing. Maybe even add more difficulty to existing sea monsters. Not in the form of more HP, perhaps just more mechanics
Ship’s lantern and compass cosmetics.. being able to use shovel as a weapon.. small things like that would be appreciated as well.
I think more craftables would be cool, like we got a whole ton of awesome plants around the world, but we can't do anything with them, maybe we could make potions, or tea, or add them to our grog to give temporary boosts or even just cool effects
I think it would be really cool if they add a “base defend” type of world event. Maybe multiple skeleton ships start attacking port merrick, you have to use stationary canons to sink ships, and also fend off skellys on land if their ship makes it too close to
Glad I got into this game recently. Having an absolute blast.
Rant:
I just had a thought, why not combine some of the ideas? Create a new cold area? Sure! Let’s give it it’s own world even featuring an icy sea hydra. Finally move Flameheart’s story and the Cap’n, and tease/ add a few new ships, monsters and world events along the way leading up to these massive additions. Making it feel like we’re doing something to make the icy world come to us via the sea of the damned. It does work through imagination and memory after all (in a simple way of putting it)
That would be too much content in a small amount of updates. This would surely make the game hyped but that hype will hold out for a much shorter time compared to releasing new content piece by piece and stretching out time. So its a minus for Rare
@@pcpeasantry3008 Not really, allow me to explain: moving flameheart’s story along, adding an icy world with a world event would both be their own things, on top of that, the ship updates would come with new quests and other things to do around the world we already have to summon the ice world to us. Rare can add whatever reasons they want, as long as it fits into the overall world. This keeps players working towards a common goal, which can even have a quota with a reward attatched for participation, releasing the new ships on community weekends can amplify the attention they get, as players will want to watch streamers adjust to the new boats, with some twitch drops as incentive. All these little things can last a while (about a month or two) leading to larger updates like the ice world itself, or the conclusion to the flame heart saga. If these two things affect the overall world by continually giving players stuff to do after it’s release, (new loot, quests, maybe even vendors) it will last longer. It’s a plus for Rare, provided they give the players something to do. These past updates haven’t done much of that.
@@pcpeasantry3008 (replying to deleted comment) I never said it would all be within 2 or three updates. It would go through about 1.5-2 years, and I think that’s perfectly reasonable, as it isn’t exactly a pirate’s life worth of production, focuses more on the world itself and would generate plenty of revenue and hype. So it’s a plus for Rare. It’s also not a plus to not add something or expand upon an idea and just tear ideas down instead. It makes conversation worthless
World Expansion for me would be great because theres so much open ocean around the edges of the map now, including a hell of a lot in the south west, a new area there (ice or not) with 1 outpost, 1 seapost, 1 fort, 2 big islands and 2 small islands is only 7 new islands, less then half of what the devils roar brought and its taking up space thats already there
i'd love to see ship uprgades or changes smt like repositing the cannons or having more cannons then 2 on a slupe would be so awsome
i think there should be a small snowy area with thin ice but needs to be small like not even half the size of devils roar but could be opportunity to make a bigger more on foot pvp island and the game already has warm cold weather clothes
I think they need either curse balls or random encounters of skellys or sea creatures boarding your ship. Or even a rare curse ball that summons them on a ship?
Random animation of dolphins playing off the bow of the ship when you catch the wind! ... And Also Whale watching. Different types, different behaviours. Achievements for seeing them all. Like the meg, a particularly rare type. Imagine being in the crows nest and seeing whales through the spyglass in the distance!
I would love something new to discover too... Add an island and don't tell anyone...
i'm a rather casual player of SoT, meaning over the years i've been very on/off with it. after seeing the vulcan isles, i really was longing for an icy region. maybe making the map bigger is a bad call, but what about a restructure of the top left corner? making it icy, with an extra ford, extra quest AND extra game mechanic since you have to plow through that ice from time to time. you could even bring some surival aspects into it like blizzards that deal dmg over time and make you move a bit slower or so.. i think there'd be a lot to explore here if done right
and another thing that definitly needs to go in: freakin board games! i wanna play that dice game from pirates of the carribean! maybe you can even connect pvp to it, challenging an enemy to a dice-duel and whoever loses has to join the other team for like 10-15minutes :D
I would love a large summonable world boss, like a leviathan. Maybe you have to sacrific Megs meat, Kraken meat, Sirens Skull or something to summon it, but then it spawns whirlpools and it covers large portions of the map, blocking islands until it is defeated.
I wish one day we could have holsters for our weapons ! making them visible on character. It could be amazing for immersion :)
Honestly the thing that's mostly been keeping me not playing is the rather samey gameplay loop (after playing past a certain point)
New features like Skull of Siren Song, Serpents, a bigger ship, etc. only help so much when players can easily get burnt out on the core gameplay loop of "sail to island, get loot, sail to island, get loot, sail to island, maybe get attacked, get loot, go sell" (Which I know is a massive oversimplification, but that's how it feels)
It's hard to tackle, but more ways to handle that gameplay loop would be quite welcome
New ship types or extreme customization is the logical next step. While I would love to see a Man O War I think it makes more sense to make a a schooner type ship. Similar to the brigantine (which is actually a brig but I digress) Give it 2 cannons and the ability to drop kegs behind it in rapid succession but extremely fast when you angle the triangle sails correctly but slower than a sloop if you don't. Honestly I would love to see you be able to customize the 3 ships. Lets say you want a faster sloop. You could remove the cannons and not be able to shoot but be the fastest ship on the seas (requiring the schooner to catch you) or you could add more cannons and maybe even some light armor but be slow enough to be caught. Imagine putting another 8 cannons below deck on a galleon and kinda turning it into a Man O War but you are not really catching anything but nothing is getting to the sovereign if you have all the guns manned (maybe link them to the cannon directly above but they are still fired individually or back and forth so it only requires 4 people). Or strip 4 cannons off and remove alot of wood to make the galleon fast enough to catch other ships but be easier to sink, but could hold 2 rowboats instead of 1 (mounted bow and stern)
Variants on exsisting elements:
Ships - as mentioned
Weapons - similiar style, daggers are quicker but less damage, Axes slower but bigger hits
I do miss the evolving world, other online services do this so well and keeps everyone interested
We would love to see Handheld harpoon guns to be able to grab loot at a distance and board a ship from the water at the sacrifice of a weapon slot.
I think a fort of fortune type of world event involving treasuries, would be interesting, and absolutely chaotic, since you respawn there when you die. It could be a way to hone ones hand to hand skills, against other players as well.
They could just overhaul and replace the volcano region with an ice region instead. Iv just recently returned to SOT and have put in over 100 hours now and iv only ever been in the volcano region once and that was because i was afk and when I came back my boat had drifted into there. 1/4 of the map is essentially unused because no one wants to deal with the volcano.
They really badly need new sea monsters too. In that 100+ hours iv never had a Kraken attack me, and only seen it attack another ship once. Iv had like 1000 megs spawn on me tho. Something like a Hydra or even a Lock Ness Monster could change it up a bit.
Id like them to also re do certain things like the ghost and skelly forts. Incorporate an event or something where you have to capture and hold a ghost or skelly fort for a certain amount of time where the fort essentially becomes your base that you have to defend.
Good ideas here. Can't argue with them.
In addition, however, I'd like to see different skins for the various ship sizes. I don't necessarily want them to act differently, just look different to one another. We have different sails and all that but the general shape of our ships are all identical.
I've also wanted mini games in the taverns for a long time. I'd love to spend more time on islands interacting with other players. We have drinking and music which is great but if we could gamble and do other things it would be a lot of fun.
i have thought of AI/npc crewmates that stay on the ship and act like the skellys on skelly ships and have them be hired by gold, the higher price ones will be better "but not as good as players" the still use the reasourses of the ship and all and can only have up to the ship limit, would help the solo players that want to sail a gally and dont have alot/ enought friends to play withh
One thing I would like to see is more dynamic weather, I.E. Waterspouts (ocean tornadoes) rouge waves, and player to ship size whirlpools.
The idea of a zone that gives more loot in exchange for challenge sounds fantastic. I would love that, imagine a soulflame Ashen lord that spews ghastly green flames and instead of throwing rocks it would summon a homing explosive skull that would start fast and slow down overtime and eventually blow up as normal. There's so much you could do with the concept. Maybe once you leave the Sea of the Damned it would do some giant green lightning that would strike the rock exit from, kinda like the lightning at the Sea dogs? That way people would know you got that spooky loot. (Gahh, sorry for brainstorming a page of text)
Some of my best adventures happened with rowboats.... Good times filled with death cannons rowboats and a banjo
I forgot to add my bird named "The Word"
all this video, is all i want in sot for christmas ❤
To me, it's the ship thing. I'd like to see a) a skiff - a kind of one person, one-cannon (rotatable), lower-visibility ship ideal of doing more covert activities, but perfectly capable of holding its own against a sloop if push came to shove. I also think the game could use b) some kind of alternate brig-sized vessel, intended for 2-3 people, that that trades firepower for a bit more survivability - something that puts sailing quality and seakeeping over the LOL TWO CANNONS PER SIDE attribute.
I believe making your ship look good is a key feature of the game, especially since you can't upgrade. Therefore new ship classes would already play a massive role for players just to customize.
I kinda want triangular sails of some sort tbh.
They could do so much with the devil's roar. I mainly sail there and a world event there could be very interesting.
That whole area is just a missed opportunity. Want the ice world freeze that area over for a little.
I'd love a glitterbeard level mega ship that was super hard to sail but has 2 rows of cannons plus one in front or something. Would make for some epic encounters
The ability to throw fruits at opponents to blind them like throw up. Or throw fruit into water to bait special NEW fish or any new water animals. Also would like to see the ability to bare knuckle box. Having no item equipped we should still be able to punch eachother. Just for a little bit of damage, but drunken bar fights would be really fun.
World event idea: a circle lights up on the see, u have to fight sirens, here's the twist: they jump on board and switch from fins to legs and jump back into the water if health low, they also just jump from the see, grab u and try to pull u down to the depths, like that scene in pirates of the Caribbean where they destroy a ship, also there's gonna be like ocean crawlers that can jump onto the shipand the final boss is a siren general who rides either a Meg or kraken, maybe a cloud to show if the general is riding Meg or kraken
I would love to have a customizable pirate hideout where I can hoard loot maybe only one chest is allowed though a specific portal at a time and then we can buy furniture for the hideout and different walls and stuff it would give people a reason to spend gold and or doubloons and then with a loot hoarding mechanic we’d have a reason to get loot again
this is gonna sound tottally insane i think a tall tale surrounding a ufo that the people think is some seamonster would be wicked and at the end its a boss
Tortuga! A hub where no PvP is allowed, but you can maybe play that dice game or card game, bet some gold and also have a set up Deathmatch for pepole to bet on also where pirates face of 1 vs 1. And you can get to know new pirates or anounce you`re a looking for a crew/crewmate :)
i think if they added a new map with different servers that would be cool like a Caribiana map or like a river map that you can only use tiny boats like row boats or they just add a new smaller type of boat so you dont have to worry about a 4 stack galleon. pulling up on you
I need a man o war ship and frigate shaped like the black pearl cause it looks so radddddd, cannons firable from inside and on top side. And much more ship stuffs to make it more unique
I'd like to see a new enemy on the Seas. The marines, a group which sails with a really strong ship (like a galeon but with 8 canons on each side) which try to hunt down the pirates ^^
I would love to have the option to hire one npc crew mate to my ship under the condition that their is a space left.
With a voyage of the Order of Souls after getting to level 50. With it you can find a chest that will constantly respawn a skeleton/ghost who will remove the water from your ship and fight back those who attack it. With higher levels at the Order of Souls you will get stronger npc crew mates but you can have only one voyage at per ship.
I think adding a new skull or chest that summons one or few friendly ghosts aboard would be a sensible way to add a helping hand for undercrewed ships, so the majority of players who play alone on sloops. Make the value lessen each time the ghost fires a cannon or is killed and turn to dust once its value reaches zero, still better than nothing.
Alternatively, this item could be something you can easily acquire or is embedded to the ship and activates when it detects a lobby that's not full but needs skulls as fuel, different types giving you different summons and the value determining the duration and amount of help you receive. Here are suggestions how they could interact:
- regular bounty skulls would summon a skeleton to man the cannons, their quality determining the amount of cannonballs they can fire and revive before they vanish, variants summoning coral or ashen skeletons, skeleton's captain skulls and stronghold skulls summoning two skeletons instead with one having a chance for cursed balls while the other summoning special skeletons (phantom, plant or golden);
- skulls of the damned would summon two ghosts with not a lot of endurance but being better combatants than skeletons, while captain skulls of the damned directly possess the cannons, granting no protection against boarders but lobbing a lot of cannonballs before draining with the rare chance for a wrath ball;
- a possible interaction of this item could involve not skulls but mermaid and siren gems, allowing you to expend them for safe passage through storms and Kraken ink;
- the villainous skull of ancient fortune would summon the ghost of an ancient or a pirate legend, significantly longer lasting than any individual summon;
- the ashen winds skull would work a little differently by not providing a skeleton crew and instead quickly extinguish any fires aboard, set boarders alight, reduce the incoming damage from volcanic rocks and occasionally enhance the shots fired with incendiary effect. This would work regardless if you have a full or a partial lobby;
- dulcis in fundo, just for the fun of it, placing the gold hoarder's skull would turn the ship solid gold and make it glitter for all to see, without actually degrading the skull's value.
I would love realistic server where you can't sail against wind where different ship could go closer to it than some and where you wouldn't be able to turn if the ship is not moving (don't know if pvp would be fun but would love to try)
I personally want to see Ocean curernts( think finding Nemo) you dive similarly to hourglass except you ride the ocean current underwater around the maps edge to make transverse funner and shorter if you need to clear a lot of water. Ships can battle another ship in the stream and have the risk of an under water meg or kraken attack
5:10 good job, now Rare has to spend another year or two coming up with a new idea for the next content update
I’ve always thought they could add another weapon specifically the naval boarding axe. Axes were commonly used by pirates
New musket hand mortar and duckfoot guns ! Duckfoot pistol shoots 4/6 rounds with a slow reload and a regular musket with sniper strength but reg sights and a hand mortar a hand held grenade launcher
I'd love a new cursed chest like the chest of rage ect.
But make it a trickster chest... where it randomly and sporadically causes the same effect as a cursed cannon ball to your ship/crew
I would love being able to have more than one ship in safer seas. I still have more than three friends that play this game and sometimes we all want to sail together.
Really, I just want a way we can all sail together, but I can understand how that could mess up the balance in High Seas. The last time we managed to get a pair of brigs together, it took us almost an hour and a half of server hopping just to do it.
Let me and my buddies do our yacht racing through the Devil's Roar, Rare!
Pirate hideouts. Create your own pocket in the sea of the damned that you can customize with gold. Purchase your own tavern, hire a clothing store, have liar’s dice or parkour challenges for your friends etc. Raise company reputation to 100 or make company-based commendations that unlock certain island themes like an order of souls themed island or reaper’s lair.
Crab fishing for hunters call.....give us a crab cage or "pod" allow us to hold up to 5 pods at a time.....2 different types of crab for each zone .....make the pods "marked" on the map for all to see....you have to put bait in pods and toss overboard.....we will need a retrieval mechanic.....make the crabs worth decent gold....being marked on all players maps will encourage "stealing" crabs....one golden crab per hour for bonus gold....
Revamp some core mechanics and add new ones for example diving could really use some reworking. Crouching and stealth would be nice since they could also add daggers for stealth attacks. While at it why not add Climbing ? There's so many things Rare could do but right now they only play it safe and I hate it.
I personally feel that sea monsters would be a great way to kick off, having our very own hunters call voyages that tackle new sea monsters that we must hunt down maybe similar to that of a merchant, lost cargo voyage finding clues along the way of destroyed ships all leading to the location of an all new sea monster that isn’t the Kraken or the megalodon. Just a thought 🦈
even if they dont add more ships expanding how many ppl can be on a ship would be nice. add +1 to each ship would make running the ships much more efficient.
