    no, they're hamstrung by the 'fair pvp' meme (even though the game isn't fair or balanced at all) which stops them adding anything meaningful to do in the game besides unlocking ugly as frick cosmetic items

              Ok. Cause I looked through the entire Pirate Emporium and only found cosmetics, nothing that would have an affect on gameplay. So you must have some special different version of the game than the rest of us.

                sometimes i hear anons talk about cosmetics making minor differences, like sails that are ripped at the bottom give more view for the guy on the wheel or guns with slightly better views down the barrel, real basic shit, idk about anything else, a few emotes are nice for tucking but you can earn those last i checked with ancient coins

                There are some cosmetics like sails with a tiny little bit of view at the bottom (but most competent people just leave their mid sail up a little bit to see anyway) and there's like one or two gun/cannon skins that have little nubs or model details that can technically be used as aiming sights (though again, not really that big a deal because you already know where to shoot and they're not calibrated for aiming).

                There are some emotes like the barrel and whatnot, but all of those are free so it doesn't matter. And any emotes that are "designed" for hiding, are just more funny than anything else because again, if you're searching for tucking/hiding players you're still going to find them anyway barring EXTREME edge cases.

                There are no Pay2Win mechanics at all. Anyone claiming there are, is just shitposting.

        main reason is the different crew sizes, but there are multiple things that turn the game into a veterans preying on newbies simulator

        • 2 years ago
          Anonymous

          Crew sizes can be unfair if all things are equal, but they almost never are. 3 good players on a brig will beat 3 good players and 1 mediocre one on galleon, since the galleon gives less margin for error. Galleons are also more vulnerable to certain things like fire, ballastballs, and chain shots.

          The game has never tried to be perfectly balanced for every person and ship and it probably shouldn't be. Also:

          >veterans preying on newbies simulator
          How is this not every single multiplayer game ever? All you're saying is "the better players will win", and yeah no fricking shit they will.

      I don't care about that, I love the classic Treasure Island vibes, but the lore is pretty meh and there's not much to the world and barely any interesting NPCs. This game doesn't do anything fun with its own world, would rather play Monkey Island as a pirategay.

      Your definition of "content" seems to be something that will never be in the game.

      So in that case, no, they have not added more cannon types and more weapon types to replace the ones that already exist.

    Any sloop chads struggling with the new balance changes? They're mostly good and advantageous, but the double chainshots on sloop masts makes sloop vs sloop such a chore.

    The other week we had an hour long sloop v sloop fight that ended with neither of us sinking. Granted the battle kept getting interrupted at the worst times by PVE, but trying to get two successive chainshots has been tricky. Strangely I don't have this problem hitting masts when fighting galleons or brigs.

          You do, but it's one way to get them down. I'll get a little closer than I like so I'm confident in my shots at fire two or three to be sure it goes down. Then just follow up with some blunderbombs to be sure it falls and try to work from there.

          But yeah solo fights can be a bit of a slog now outside of a lucky oneball, and even then with the respawn times that's no guarantee.

    It's gonna get another PvP focused update with a brand new gamemode, just like arena back in 2019, and will once again NOT add new weapons to the main set of 4 the game's had since launch. It will not add the boarding axe they scrapped in pre-dev, it will not add any ranged weapons. After the mediocre trident which isn't a real addition to the weapons, but a sort of pseudo-weapon, I was wondering if they would learn their lesson and actually have the courage to do something to pvp combat before it gets too complicated to update every cosmetic to include new additions.

    I've said it before but it honestly feels like a nicer-looking version of a Unity game. The combat really fricking sucks and is incredibly unsatisfying, it's actually inexcusable to have first person combat this bad in 20XX. Also it only happened like 3 times in the 40 hours I played but there are definitely hackers that NOTHIN PERSONNEL'D themselves into my shit a few times. I looked it up and there were a few incidents similar to mine but the community was typical "HURR DURR MS DOES NO WRONG, YOU PROBABLY GOT BOARDED AND DIDN'T NOTICE" Overwatch fandom-tier replies.

      Yeah, the community for this game is honestly one of the worst I've seen for a game.
      But, it seems to mostly be dominated by PVP gankers who just wanna farm kids who play the game out of curiosity on gamepass and refuse any measures that might stop that.
      So, it's not really surprising that they are the way they are.

        Yeah, it's annoying you can't really chillout on galleon. If you see another ship coming at you then thats that. Fun's gone. If the sloop or brig are not stupid they will just keep their distance and never come straight at you. If that happens you are looking at 40 minute borefest of a fight.

        but what if you're a new player? just get fricked and quit amirite?

        Pretty much. Player retention is pretty shit after season drops. As a new player the game can be fun up to the point you get attacked by double-gunning, bunny-hopping, food-spamming morons. When you discover that that's how pvp is in this game and you were looking for some le epic naval combat the desire to play is gone

    I used to play this game, both solo and with frens, Lately this game feels more dead that i ever. No i didn't check about live players back then and now, and frankly i don't care. What i care about is that a year ago i used to check the horizon every 2 minutes just so i can prepare for the server hopping reaper brig, now i will be lucky if i see another ship during a full session. Seems like even the salt-harvesting pvpers got tired of spawnkilling 12 year old kids on their first gold hoarders voyage.

    The game has never been serious. The literal pinnacle of Sea of Thieves isn't the loot, isn't the combat, isn't the cosmetics, isn't the story, isn't the progress... it's the fun experience you have sailing with friends... that's it. If you have three good friends the experience is amazing. If you are solo you are wasting your time, literally. The amount of time it takes to carry loot from point A to point B solo is excruciating, especially if you get sunk.
