Things I would like to see in this game: - Your own Visible name on the Stern that you choose to call your ship, - Cannon Recoil when salvo is fired seeing the cannons recoil which also allows players to know if an opponent has fired or is ready to fire from the port or stbd side. - Firing Mode: - Gradual firing for firing at the stern of a ship from forward to aft to ensure every shot counts to maximise damage and also can be used for broadsiding - Firing at will, players can fire cannons during an engagement until stopped by them instead of waiting for all cannons to reload. Critical Hits on ships - firing cannon and striking gun powder causing the ship to be either disabled, sunk, maximum casualties or exploding which could be nice for 3d effects allowing players to see how devastating shots can be. - Rudder disabled depends on your accuracy, - loss of masts to prevent speed but also mast does not fall off ship but drags in water to further slow down the ship. Debris on the ocean, i am sure the ocean would be littered with floating masts, wood, barrels etc after an encounter. - Ranks - i am sure we have seen so many games with ranking systems or leveling up systems which is very competitive, could we have a promoting system where you the player promotes crew members to certain roles on the ship and allows the gun crews to be more effective when reloading and also with accuracy but also have other promotion for crew morale etc. Upgrades to ships - improved sailing or more sails for speed, hull thickness, more crew capacity, different hull designs, different materials. colours, players have the ability to paint there own ship, designing there own crest for the ship. i think i can come up with more idea's but they are just idea's. I hope this game is going to be excellent, I really want it to be, Cheers guys,
