OMG LOL, I forgot to take animals with me. For a moment I forgot you can tame animals, breed them etc. Thanks for reminding me lol.

Yes that would be amazing. Sorry for long delay in the reply, I was not allowed to reply lol. I had to wait almost 24 hours. I found my first WPE, and I got slaughtered. There was like 10 pirates. Definitely in single player, I will have to tweak things to make it more possible to take on, but yeah random pirates even if just a few here and there would be nice, as so far I'm not finding too many threats in the wild compared to Ark Survival. I'm having fun though.

Thank you for the reply. Maybe that is a suggestion I could mention to the devs, to have wandering pirates like the rest of the animals in the game. Maybe even take it a step further, and have an option to allow the camps you capture to become hostile again like in Assassin's Creed, or the ability to have pirates retake the camp or something. I dunno, I'm new to the game, I'm just ranting, but I am enjoying single player quite a bit so far.

Thank you for the reply. So I guess all pirates are tied to a base of some sort, they aren't like animals where some random pirates could respawn. I know it sounds funny, but I worry about investing hundreds of hours into a map, building a nice town, and having nothing but tigers and snakes that can kill me with no pirates. I guess I could always just not kill the bases, but it seems like it would be fun to do.

Playing single player with the option ticked for wild pirates. In roaming around for 3-4 hours and even flying with the console command, I have not found a single WPE let alone a single pirate. Are they that rare? I've tried both Ocean and Blackwood maps. I read the patch notes on WPE and I know they don't respawn if you wipe it out completely, but can wild pirates in general respawn without it being an encampment if that makes any sense? I'm worried about one day being established, maybe taking over all the WPE and not having any wild pirates at least respawn. I'm hoping they do like the animals do.
