Sail Paints?

[CaptVonGunn]

Any plans for Colors and Historical style designs for the Sails being added to the Paint or Flag DLC?

pls no dlc.. ingame content or rewards.. if everything becomes a dlc the game becomes so shallow that there wont be any point to do anything ingame.. its already a shame with the flag/paint dlc which would be best implemented as rewards for doing stuff ingame.

But IMO sails changing color to more greyish or the paint on the ship sligtly wearing off over time would be cool, to see which ships have "battle scars" etc

Fully agree. But let's be real... Game depth has never been a priority for this dev. And customization DLCs overall sell pretty well.

I'd rather customisation DLCs (as they can be found in world too) than ship DLCs

id rather not have dlc's but better rewards for doing ingame stuff, swap nation or name for maybe some kind of cash (to hinder alt nation swapping)

Ah this would have been great... The nation swap is among the worst ones to me. As you said, it would make total sense to be able to pay a massive sum to be able to swap nations. Even for like 20'000'000 reals and 100'000 dubs.

I wish they go back to allowing you to become a pirate the old way.  You have to attack some one of your nations (AI or player).   Than the only way to come back to being a national is by forge papers or delete and make a new char.   They also need to kick Pirates to impossible nation status and make it a in game only nation, you can't pick pirates from the start.  Bring back FFA's too so you can't trust any other pirates too.

 

Pirate life hardcore.

 

As for the paints/sails thing it will be a DLC if they ever do it cause they want to cash grab.  How else are they going to pay for that new model designer to make us new ships and paints/sails any way?  I mean the one they never have gotten with all the other DLC they sold so far.

Agree with all of it. Outlaw was removed because of R zone, the R zone is now removed hence why there is no way to exploit it. I would add that you could bribe yourself to some kind of pardon or something from the country you came from or buy letter of marque from other nations

That bribe pardon is called the forge papers.

The "old way" sounds like the right way to me. There's a fair amount of world building and decision making that kind of shapes what age of sail is about, piracy, real piracy is one of them.

While you are right. Cosmetic dlc is probably the most acceptable form of dlc there is. I would rather cosmetic dlc than more pay to win ships.

would love some sail paints.

[Aegishjalmur]

I would like to see some weathered / patched / worn skins not only for sails but ships in general. Different options for paints are great but I really dislike every ship looking brand-new like its first day at sea...

They already have the DLCs I mentioned and have said they will be adding to them for no extra. I just asking if this other item might be folded into one of them

 As I suggested more then once when I was a Pirate a year or so and further back...  Pirates need 1 or 2 "safe" cities with resources and shipyards... Other wise they just operate out of Freetowns...No ships bigger then a 4th rate can be built or used.. They cant capture cities.. Only ships(any captures of 3rd rates and u are sold off .. not added to the fleet) . They can raid Ports for resources and gold..  Basicly a Port battle with limits.  Pirates should be annoying not a Nation...
