Just as the topic says. The rope bed is a bit old speaking as a 1st week player. Can we get a captains double bed for ships and land? The ability to make an actual Pier would be great. I've seen a lot of creativity on Lawless servers for people making do with what's available. Even some variation on storage containers would be great. I've seen desks and nightstands and even wardrobe closets and mods for single player. I do think it's about time that devs make their own to add even more playability to the game. I'm sure their ideas for new enemies in the future but that's another suggestion as well. I've had to start over three times and all the available items now or just becoming a bit generic. Adding more ship classes and whole skins might add even more variation.  Even after 3 wipes I still I think this is a good game that could be even greater.

I get large fps drops on good hardware. No matter if im in 4k or 1080 the drops are almost 20 fps. I have a 2080 ti and a 8700k that runs ark on 4k max settings. And my game still crashes when leaving a game or dying with a fatal error. Please optimize this game before adding more.

The reviews went up bc a fresh batch got into this game not knowing what they were in for. But guaranteed those reviews will go down as time progresses. Npc raidable islands a move in the right direction. Island razing when we were assured we would be safe, wrong direction as in like stepping backwards. Now i commend for fixing bugs that were here prewipe. And as far and npc islands, just add the islands and put the npc settlements there and use the recent added islands that arent owned, i hope they get the same idea. With some more ship types and hull skins this game could be improved so much to give us more variety. Thank god im on an island whose owners havent used the raze system but if they do, guaranteed ill be here to raise some hell lol. Lost so much in the wipe and i have even more now. But it seems devs hate it when they are doing good lol.

This option will be what pushes everyone away. Devs constantly backpedal and this will cause players to leave for good. While the npc settlements is a step in the right direction, the new raze system is a step back, making the game seem more like a cash grab. Pve is severely depleted as i see owners of islands quitting and still so many islands that are left unclaimed. At most the raze system should be for unconnected structures to destroy foundation and pillar spam. But this must be too hard for the devs to do. So lets just drive 80% of the players away so the 20% who have islands can have a clean island again. Really wtf devs. The bad reviews alone are killing your hope of new players and they will only grow as positive reviews are being changed.

<RETRACTED> I see you have listened as i just read the upcoming patch notes.

Just had an idea while playing Sid Meirs Pirates, can you please make a variety of ai ships other than SOD? I mean like factioned ships same as the player ships. Nonhostile ships that can be raided and only attack when they are attacked. It would make the oceans more full with traffic as well as playability. Also add Man O War and frigates maybe even Ship of the Lines which are huge. This game will be great once bugs are taken care of but the current ships to build and ai ships are really what the game lacks. This can also add alot more missions to the game. 

Just as the title says. I seen a fleet of SoD in e12 and floatsam as if its a regular grid. If its intentional it sucks to have to worry with them here as well as the rest of the map.

So they seem to lose about 75% of their players pre wipe. And after the wat they may have gained 40% back with new players but just looking at the servers it looks like over half of them have already quit. This game was popular and now you can barely find a hundred people total on all servers. At this rate and the direction they are heading the only players that will be left playing this game maybe The devs themselves. They really had a good idea for the game but they let the players corrupt it. Because there's always going to be somebody complaining that something isn't fair because it's not easy for them and they don't understand the game or know how to play and won't give their self the chance to learn or those who can't spend as much time in the game as others can. I can only spend maybe a few hours a day because I have a life. This game seems to punish those who have a life

Weaving and shooting, while realistic, isnt feasible when your a solo ship. A fleet of SoD will easily sink a lone ship when it has to turn left or right to fire its cannons which causes the ships to catch up. And forget if you sink a Brig or a Sloop and trying to get the float Sam from them because the rest are still going to come after you. The risk and reward is just not high enough. I mean if you lose for planks even if you have spare planks you have to leave the wheel and make repairs while the ships of the Damned are still firing on you. Yeah I could spend days sailing around increasing the defense or Damage Done by my ship but it is pointless. Do you stupid ass updates will continue and completely ruin this game. At most they should have set a limit to 4 large cannons fore and aft or made it where the brig rear platform couldn't be made so big to fit 8 large cannons on. Deck cannons and 4 1/2 cannons does not go against the lure of the game because actual pirate ships had cannons on decks and fore and aft. It is how the smaller ships captured bigger ships so they could be faster with just as much Firepower. This was really the final game breaking update for me. I'm kind of thankful for it so I can go back and play breath of the wild again or so much better and less frustrating games.

I really dislike the changes. No cannons on the back of the ship as a solo player player is insane. Thanks for making it near impossible to kill ships of the Damned. This is my final straw and enough to make me stop playing the game. I am a PVE player as well. You seem to Nerf everything in your game that makes life easier. It is near impossible to do a Power Stone Quest solo and I thought solo players were promised that the game would be made better for them. So peace out and keep your garbage game and lose a lot more players than you have. I can guarantee you've lost more players than you gained just by the stupid changes. The server speak for themselves.

A big shoutout goes to the programmers for recent updates. You have fixed the falling through floors and crew/tames floating off the ship. These were by biggest problems with the game and they are no longer an issue. Now that my company disbanded prewipe, im also starting to like the flag system as is because i am solo now. Go with the system that works best. There will always be crybabies who wont like any flag system if they cant get land of their own. I admit i hated the wipe bc i lost so much and a company but the wipe was worth it to me just to fix thise few bugs that were present since day one. Also billboards on the buoys have been fixed which bugged me a lot as well. Keep crushing these small and large bugs and this game will make it amd continue to attract more players. Now that most exploits are gone hopefully it will be the right kind of players. Again great job and your hard work is paying of and is greatly appreciated. My only suggestion as of now is graphics optimization. I have a 2080 ti that dips below 60 fps at times on 2k resolution and it didnt before. 

Yes id say numbers beside an icon with a rope with knots since that is where the nautical speed yerminology came from

 Or even a buildable spool on the ship that gives a speed readout with a famed minigame possibly.

I have lost crew but no tames thankfully to them being raptured. My props go out to the team for fixing 3 bugs that have plagued the game from day one. I haven't had a chance to test and see how well these bugs have been fixed but the attempt / correction is well appreciated I'm sure by many. I'm hoping the lag while walking on a ship that causes you to fall out the back is fixed. If my reading comprehension is correct it has been fixed. That was my biggest concern of falling out of a ship then damned ships attacking my unmanned ship which has happened a few times but thankfully I didn't lose my ship.

Flat earthers must have made the map system lol. Yes please make the map a global system for immersion/realisms sake.

I think thats why they made the small flags. Might not be long before they are added to ships hopefully with streamers too. I love the new designs that has been added to the ship ornaments on the feont. Sorry i cant for the life of me think what they are called. I really hope they add sail customization so diffrent designs and shapes can be added along with ship hull customizations.

I wish they could put a way so owners can demolish foundation spam but not complex structures like barns and bases. Kinda the only way i see to fix this issue without regional flags, but it may be too complex, i mean as a owner you should be able to clear your island of grievers and douches.

As a island owner the only way id destroy someones base is that they spammed the whole island with foundations thinking this would claim everything. Im betting thats why stuff can be demolished after the land is claimed. Ive seen this on 2 of 5 islands i visited. I can understand using spam to claim a section of island but not the whole thing. I think the cosmetic flags should be made into region flags so they work like the old system to claim a region of the island with the owners permission of course. That way he can meet his new Tennant and decide if he wants you there. To give incentive, maybe let him sell the region for gold or resources or cosmetic items for landlords. This os the only way i see the new system working in the end. I seen it on reddit somewhere about the region idea so i cant claim that alone. But my idea was the small flags claim a radius and the island owner can only remove stuff after 10 days or so if the site is abandoned.

Tames make treasure hunting so easy i gave up on weapons lol. I use bears and tiger.

Can you guys make an option in the governance for company locks/ personal pin codes. That way only the chests you want to keep away from others get pin coded & not everything has to be in order for people to access the chest or whatever item.

I have wanted this when i joined a company prewipe and things started going missing and ships mysteriously sunk.

First off my gaming OCD thanks you for fixing the buoy signs so they stay with the buoy. But now when i see them in rough seas they are really laggy like they move at 24 fps while the ocean runs at 60. Its not a bug so i put it here to be known because its minor but since i use buoys now i see it multiple times a day. Mayne the code that fixed the signs have caused this. Again great job on fixing the signs and hopefully this is a simple fix.

Elephants can only be tamed by the leg and front leg belly side and not behind the head as before the update. The end result is getting hit 70% of the time or the e to feed pops up but nothing happens. You want to make the game more enjoyable, fix all the bugs please and read bug reports i implore you.

They want to add new stuff so they can sell more downloads and when the players realize its a halfassed game, their money is already in the devs pocket. This is why they dont care to fix bugs that have been present since day one. This game is just alpha monkey poop to the face. Its sad bc it has so much potential.

I thought the harvest rates were trash as well but as i play i think they are just. I cant say about the rates tames have bc i havent tamed any yet.

Since there is no fog of War there is no way to tell what island you have discovered or have not discovered. Can we get a way to tell what islands we have visited? Or is there currently a way to tell and I'm missing it?
