Long post I am sure some in my opinion are good ideas others are less so…
1. A system of evil, if you sink another boat you gain evil for the company, if your company is EVIL your boats are marked on the current server map for (x) amount of time depending on what you sunk unless the boats are currently anchored. Once the time runs out it goes back to normal and no longer is marked… so bigger company is the more boats they sink the longer your time and more people know when you’re coming. Making it just a tiny bit more fair to play for the smaller companies. Which also helps with people who are legitimately trying to trade stay away from danger and if they do get sunk maybe their attacker will have less luck for a little while.. IF you get initiated on you can freely attack the other company without the risk of EVIL though.. for like a hour. So killing a raft might be 5minutes where killing a galleon might be 3hrs.. (example)
2. I would prefer more immediate gratification and or different type of “rare” loot.. like a chicken I would love to see a 1 in 1000 chance to get a golden egg as drop where maybe you can trade for 100 gold in a Freeport type thing or while hatcheting it maybe a rare feather that is used for a recipe… or maybe a chicken head skin…. Something… or rabbit to give a rare chance for a lucky rabbit leg for increase gold gain from next 1 treasure… Or wolf to drop a rare wolf pelt recipe and rare drop of wolf fur for it… etc… or make treasure map “pieces” drop from animals 1 in 25 chance and combining 5 common gets you a common map, 5 journeyman etc.. something to be like ooh thats cool...!
3. Animal + character stat balancing… hate die’n to an alpha just trying to get gear back over and over…no point in me getting dressed with new set than I have to get 2 sets back… if I try to kill it my body might disappear… I want to feel like I am getting stronger when I level… which brings up the point of
4. Ways to level…. It feels like I just don’t level from anything I can find… after like 50ish
5. Fix some weapons to be able to do the things they should be, example.. stone walls are practically immortal or cost more materials than worth…. Killing people with proper weapon types instead of them being nearly immune except to fire arrows…. Also make it where you can make a proper defense... as well as ways to raid properly...
6. Since you like having wood be wood… maybe when in inventory its wood(1) wood(2) etc… so people know what would they want when trading.. for the recipes that require 5 separate types… so if I have tons of wood(1) on my island.. I can trade it for Wood(2-7) instead of confusion of which wood we need same for other materials...
7. A trading post in Freeport where you might have a special “trade chest” on your boat.. and it takes and swaps or whatever right to the boats so you don’t have to risk actually bringing stuff on you.. especially since if you die there you lose it all.
8. This one people might not like. (can have 2 types of claims) 1 for land claim.. 1 for raiding.. land claim might have a limit of 2 per person 10 for a company but are permanent unless taken, but then for raiding you can have 10 as well at one time… but they work different.. they are temporary flags when you place one it takes 30minutes to place.. they can only be interrupted by any person demolishing it which cancels it instantly, once claimed you can freely building but not demolish anything that isn’t yours and still required to be (x) tiles away from others built things, so u cant try blocking doors in etc.. .. the raiding claims last 1hr. AFTER the raiding claim is over everything placed during the raid, belongs to whoever owns the LAND claim. They can demolish for resources etc… if anything was left.
9. Going back to alphas, and taming, you already have the glow for alphas, what if you had different animals all tamable.. like GREEN glow is a agility.. one that gets 25% bonus movement but loses 25% weight.. or a brown could be 25% bonus weight but loses 25% speed just different “Rare” ones that can spawn that can be tamed. Can be all sorts of variety.. to look for a level + the color you want… might allow animal trading more beneficial than it is now as well… like find a +25-50% gatherer/weight that has -25-50% damage/speed bear/rhino/elephant… would be WELL wanted… could even do icons etc…
I am sure I’ll think of more, give me your opinion of each, I am sure there’s plenty flaws in some of them.. add your own to the list…
How/where on private server do i change the taming modifier/ egg hatching/ breeding modifier? Please and thank you for all info.
