Bigger crew / server capacity

  • The maximum number of players on a server should be increased to 32, and there should be the possibility of having more than 4 players on the galleon or a new ship.
    Currently, if we have more than 4 players, it is impossible to play together or join our guild team to have 2 ships on a server.

  • @vostok-gamer The servers won't support that many players without big performance issues.

  • it is impossible to play together

    Not impossible, Plausible. Just takes little extra steps.

    The maximum number of players on a server should be increased to 32

    Try to do math here. If everyone had a Sloop, 16 ships. Can you imagine...sailing and seeing that many Sloops?

    there should be the possibility of having more than 4 players on the galleon or a new ship.

    Balance issue with extra players on Galleon and no need for a new ship. The galleon barely sees any play atm anyways and a bigger ship will just be the same.

    Don't know about that, I see them regularly. Maybe just pot luck your not seeing it much etc.

    Without any stats we don't know how popular they really are.

    Galleon would be unsinkable with more players. Game would become unbalanced!

    Bigger boats in game would mean less players would use them, they would have to be harder to manage so they are not too powerful

  • If we get a better engine that support more ships and maybe a map expansion or two, we can be 10+ ships but the current state, there's no way.

  • Considering that the servers already struggle when there are more than a few ships in an area, I'll have to pass on this idea.
