Hethwill Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 After having first contact with the new flags system I come to suggest a improvement that relates to everything Open World and the battles created. - When accessing the Flags allow the player to choose the flag intended for each nation eg. player selects one from pirates, one from Sweden, and so on. - every battle that the player joins with his own Nation he will show his own Nation flag proudly. - if player happens to join a battle on the side of another nation he will show the selected flag he picked for that nation and not the default one for that nation. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anolytic Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 (edited) That's a good idea. I wonder if nobody thought of that before? On 11/29/2018 at 7:24 PM, Anolytic said: What about the Flag DLC enabling us to choose also what false flags we carry. I join pirate side in a battle, then I get one of the unique DLC flags of pirates instead of the standard pirate flag. It could even be random, so you could spawn in with any of the Pirate flags, including the standard flag. I feel it's anticlimactic every time I join a fight with another nation and my shiny nice flag that I paid hard earned cash for is disappeared. Though I think it would maybe be better if our false flag was randomly selected from the DLC-flags and standard flag when we joined another nation in battle.

LeBoiteux Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 (edited) I would prefer a 'complex to code and boring for some' system (that I for one would lovingly call 'his-to-ri-cal') where ships could only carry flags that were actually used during their lifetime. But OP's + dev's systems are certainly funnier. +1 for OP. Edited December 5, 2018 by LeBoiteux 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Percival Merewether Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 A small animation of the flag being hoisted would be cool too No pressure! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep , nice idea . Would be nice to put your enemy flag on your last to make them think you are one of them . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hethwill Posted December 5, 2018 Author Share Posted December 5, 2018 19 minutes ago, Wraith said: Doesn't that defeat the purpose of the DLC? Namely, that players with the DLC select the flag that they want others to see them sailing with? I don't understand. Real case: - I own the DLC - I sail with a clan that is in Nation Prussia. I selected to sail with the flag of the free city of Hamburg. - I joined a battle on Denmark side, albeit being in another nation. - I had to use the default one for Denmark. My proposition concerns being able to have a "preferred" flag of other nations, if it happens that i enter some battle on their side. Hope it makes more clear. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miaowi Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 You get more value out of your DLC in this way too. Rather than having 1 subset to choose from and needing to forge you can configure and have a chance of seeing each preferred nation flag on your boat every time you sail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeRuyter Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 +1 Much better value for Flags DLC then. Even better if flags showed in OW but I understand there are technical issues with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
