What does everyone think of Season 14 so far?! Also, just a reminder that at the time of this recording, traps, ledge hanging, and a few other parts of the update were unfortunately not added to the game yet 🙃
The merm fruit is really cool, and I had an idea I don't think I've seen people try yet: what if you make your pirate empty their stomach after eating the fruit to try and remove the debuff? Nothing like tucking and downing uncooked seafood or a couple tankards to get back! Edit: also it's hilarious the explosive darts are just mini chest of rage
@@michaelreeves8739 I really wish that disguises weren't broken through someone interacting. Imagine if picking up someone in a chest disguise would allow the player to be picked up and carried, but the person carrying it would subtly hear the sounds of someone bumping around inside to give it away? Or, interacting with a barrel disguise would mean that somebody would take supplies out of the disguised player's inventory?? Would be goofy.
I server merged at every island. Was rammed by the same Skelly galleon like 10 times in two minutes. Was grabbed by a kraken that bugged and wouldn't let go. Rubber banded the entire session. Absolutely dog water by rare
I'm glad they took the negative reactions to the initial announcement for the grappling gun to heart. Being unable to harpoon onto ships along with locking the armory to enemies mean it's an option rather than a new must-use for combat.
@@ahmahti1334 if it wasnt this bad it would've been a must use, bc u board on a ship, kill one/quickly change to another weapon, this makes it much more "Travel" weapon rather than abnoxious PVP weapon
One of my biggest gripes as a commendation hunter is that items toed to commendations don't take you to said commendations when clicking on them (if you haven't unlocked them). It'd be so nice to see that, oh the Ashen Dragon sword needs a devil's roar commendation or something, let's see those requirements, click, done.
I get that you have 191k ancient coins for whatever reason Mason, but when you let those skeletons despawn and down play it, it is triggering lol. Dang bro
Literally I was like bro casually let’s a rare ass skeleton live like I been waiting for one to come across my way and he puts no effort into killing it 😭
It's very niche but i really enjoy using the grapple when exploring shipwrecks. Being able to zip straight to your ship after dumping the loot in the water saves a good bit of swimming time and drowning damage.
i think they thought out the new mechanics very well, it's the implementation of the actual patches that were a fail. I hope they can fix that soon though and the server stability. lag spikes and black screens are still an ongoing issue.
Did my first Ma5on style heist the other day. I'm pretty new so wasn't sure how well it'd go. But the other pirates had absolutely no idea I was even there!
I feel like the ability to interact with disguise barrels will be a big giveaway for trying to stay stealthy. I mean newer players if they see the option to interact theyre gunna try it. Before if they couldnt see any interaction button they would just look the other way and care less.
Grapple gun def the biggest thing in the update, feel like stealth will be more or less the same as it was before, less attentive crews getting stolen from and such. But grapple gun actually changes everything
Honestly it went from being my favorite addition in the announcement to one of my least favorite after tinkering with it last night. The crouch/disguises, though? Game changing for my style of play. Managed to swim to someone's boat from Galleons grave to the Shrine of hunkering, stayed on there for nearly an hour undetected while walking as a chest. Only ended up getting caught intentionally when I went up to the front of the hull to be harpooned 😂 Sneaking is pretty good too. You'd be amazing how the simple act of hiding your nameplate can make a pirate nearly blind. On that same ship last night, one of them ran right past me when I was crouched in their sloop's bed and towards to food storage, completely unaware I was 2 feet away the whole time. I'll say this though: the Harpoon gun would be phenomenal if it was allowed to travel just a liiiiittle farther. Not overwhelmingly so, but if I could travel even an extra 20 meters on land for traversal sake, it'd be part of my main loadout for big islands
The hiding in chest is kind of dumb imo. Especially like the chest do the damned. It’s not like you can hide on a fortress with that cause anyone who plays consistently knows those are locked behind a door. Chest of legend and chest of fortune is dead giveaway. No one is going to just leave those laying around
Im slightly disappointed thst interacting with a disguised treasure chest just pops you out of the disguise. How funny would it be to make it so that you can get carried as a chest but the other player struggles super hard carrying you with slightly varied animations. Would make it so people paying attention notice you but some would get real confused when they go to sale.

Its crazy! The disguises tho! This is going to be a really fun season!

If you grapple ghosts, sometimes there a glitch where the gun doesn't stop shooting for about 10 seconds. Other than that excited for traps.

it's a new option that is so bad that no one will be using it
@@ahmahti1334it's got uses. I'd love to see a buff to its range tho

@@Kanjoo. you forgot that the armories are locked and it is hard to fend for yourself when you've boarded someone with just one weapon.
@@ahmahti1334 yes that's the whole point, u trade one weapon for an easier board or u don't and have 2 weapons for a harder board

Bro it felt like just a nasty spat in the faces of us people who can't or don't want play for the micro-transaction
Well it definitely wasn’t for the lack of trying. 😂
my bro and i started doing mason style heists, too fun
It's very niche but i really enjoy using the grapple when exploring shipwrecks. Being able to zip straight to your ship after dumping the loot in the water saves a good bit of swimming time and drowning damage.
who here agrees that mason is making great content?
Me!
I looked up Mason in the dictionary and the definition simply said "content"
Love his content
Hes the best hes the only creator without a con
Simp
Season 14: ❌
Masons season:✅
I’m so happy that you don’t have to earn the blow darts, they just come with the blowpipe
I thought that it might be like throwables
Do you have that light effect like loot have, when you are tucking as a chest I wonder.... :P

Weird, I can't access the disguises menu on xbox
You missed an ancient skelly, that's 1,000 years bad luck, unless you sacrifice 1,000 skulls to the whale lord.

Love the video. I can't wait for you to get into some mischief!
The Lure dart on a keg wall when a crew is doing FOTD could REALLY mess them up
so could a bullet, and it would do it faster
bro lost the anccient skeleton i would be cryyying dude, great vid btw!!!

I love the blowpipe actually. I knew it would be secretly dope
@@cvillain2677drop the real COF/COL overboard and pretend to be the real chest
@@cvillain2677 hide in a player's loot stack
this is about to be a Commendations channel. buckle up, lads.
The true win condition
The grapple gun is actually pretty well balanced with you not being able to just get on by hitting the mast
They can’t keep giving mason so much power
Season 13.5 lookin good so far.
Also, as expected, we see a lot of new and very old Bugs.
Also i hope the loot of the BB gets buffed big time cause noone would just sink it for a 0 Sword 2 chests a skull and 3 trinkets...
You can grapple into sloops from behind by catching the floor of the mid deck, or the quest table or stairs
I can't wait to see the shenanigans you get up to with these tools! Lol hahaha
What is the first tab in your pirate log? The Meme Fleet? Mine starts with my guild.
Nah you’re sleeping on the blow dart it’s fire
imagine they made it so if you aim to long with the blow dart you would suck the dart in affecting yourself to troll people xD

I lost it at "I already give up on that part, GGs".
I think walking though skeletons is intended because if you shot a lure dart at a player there would be stuck
I do like the chest of fortune rotation, but I was hoping it would end at grade 5 and a new chest would take its place.
Love this update
Love the content!
Grapple Sword like Levi from attack on titan
They added crouching 👏👏👏
😂😂😂
Does the harpoon do any damage to an enemy when you hit them
Yeah but not a lot of
Sneaky season aka Ma5on season
I had a stack of kegs on my boat and I grappled one from the water and it hit the side of the boat and exploded lol, new seasons still a bit buggy
That's not really a bug that's just how the game works
@@Betsy8592 it hasn't done that since they changed how harpoons worked a while ago
10:43 Every cooked food is 2 bites right? I say, merfruit needs to be 2 bites, one to hide your mermaid, the other half calls it back.
Or cooked hides the mermaid, but uncooked brings it back. That feels more balanced
@@TroyW25but that would require two and thats bad
@@u6gold_u6goldu64thats why it would be balanced
@@Jonrocks7 so you effectively need two merfruit just for one boarding play… great idea
@@u6gold_u6goldu64 again, balanced.
I love how the season just came out and there’s a video on it he’s so good ALSO SNEAKY SEASON this is masons season
we got croutching in sot before gta 6
I can't wait for the mason/hitbo nonsense that's gonna happen this season
As always, the best at making quality informative content but also entertaining at the same time. Must be witchcraft.
9:42 BRO HOW COULD YOU LET HIM ESCAP... oh alright i get it
SEAson
how could u not kill that ancient skelly
its great and all but they ruined my title, the legendary rogue title, its painfully easy to get now :(
Poison darts one shot dry gold skellys
Does anyone know how to view commendations?
No shit ledge holding had a problem...
Ive never seen a accient skelly an mason gets 1 every stream wtf
hi freemasonlive
9 views… bro fell off
At least he had something to fall from
