Sea of Thieves - Sails / Hulls

  • Ahoy my pirate brothers, if I am not mistaken, Sea of ​​Thieves is a pirate game, I believe that as pirates, we want more dark ships, more weapons, more combat.

    Now when I see an update that adds a colorful flag, I feel furious to see some ship sailing with a colorful flag, I honestly see a target on the ship.

    It does not stop there! when I look at a post like that https://www.seaofthieves.com/forum/topic/59647/my-boat-cosmetic-design-i-hope-to-see-it-someday and I see a comment from a Rare Employee speaking, "What an interesting design concept!", I ask myself "What's the concept of pirates for these people?" because all this freshness in a pirate game does not it is acceptable.

    I'm sailing on the sea, from the Beta, the game starts have items like a Barbie game, or I'll be just to hunt these players, or I'll dock my ship and I'll stop navigating, because a sea made of Barbie is not a pirate sea!

  • @gt-damon-baird True, but many players like colorful things.
    I just don't know why

  • They’re literally all cosmetic, and it is cartoon graphics. I prefer the darker more often than not, but nice to change it up now and then. The red admiral sails/hull are pretty cool actually.

  • I sail with a black hull and either black or red mast. With either a red flag or the jolly roger. I try to be intimidating to keep other ships away while I'm doing missions, or if I'm up to it scare the c**p out of other crews and reck havoc

  • I agree @HaydnSym45, not every ship is totally dark, but no pirate ship has barbie theme or similar!

  • @ant-heuser-kush In this part "If a Legend wants to wear the sailor clothes and title and use the default ship to deceive people, they can also be that pirate." i agree!

    But in this part "If someone wants to be a colorful and happy pirate, let them be that pirate? If I want to be a friendly pirate with a dark and menacing ship, I can be that pirate" I totally disagree!

    Because to be a pirate, is to be someone who browses for gold, in search of battles, and not in search of the kingdom of Barbie, if there are players who like the Barbie style, who seek a game in this style, why spoil the SoT with Colorful theme is unacceptable for a real pirate!

  • @ant-heuser-kush Keep the game with pirate theme, and the game now is good.
    What @GT-Damon-Baird want say (this is what I think) is put just cosmetics from that time (not pink sails with unicorn in front and rainbow hull)

  • Yes @xphelipe, the game has to keep pirate theme, as it was at the time, if you lose focus, soon see ships with skins of spaceships, and the game completely leave the pirate theme!

  • @ant-heuser-kush I keep saying, but it seems difficult for you to understand, the game is pirate, you can be the pirate you want (fearless / smart / audacious), but the theme of the game is pirate, and pirate is the same as we see in " Pirates of the Caribbean "! Black ships, covered with barnacles, drunken crews, the constant pursuit of treasure, the battles, the legendary pirates who are feared, this is to be pirate! Unlike riding around with a pink unicorn on the ship!

  • @ant-heuser-kush But you can be any pirate, or even not be a pirate just a merchant. Put a white flag and help the others, put a jolly roger and sink the others, put a white and betray the others.
    Just keep the pirate theme, not spaceships and lovely boats.

  • lol i'd equip it just to run around messing with people playing YMCA over the mic. Fear the unicorn!!

  • Great answer @xphelipe, the player can be the pirate you want, the game just can not miss the original theme!

  • I think he just means there is not really that pirate grittiness to the game, like the way it seems skull and bones is shaping to be. The devs chose their art style and the colorful ships play into it honestly. I wish they would make more detailed designs and the ability to just change the colors ourselves

    If seeing a colorful flag makes you feel furious, you have deeper issues than can be reasonably worked out within a pirate game.

    Flags are colorful. They’re supposed to be seen and recognized from a distance. That is their purpose.

    As for the hot pink Barbie hulls, heart sails and unicorn figureheads, I wouldn’t worry (much). Then again, we already have that godawful glow-in-the-dark legend stuff, so...you never know... :D

  • @genuine-heather "If seeing a colorful flag makes you feel furious, you have deeper issues than can be reasonably worked out within a pirate game." The problem is the players who see SoT as a Barbie game!

    "Flags are colorful. They’re supposed to be seen and recognized from a distance. That is their purpose." It's okay to have colored flags as long as they are not pink or LGBT!

    "As for the hot pink Barbie hulls, heart sails and unicorn figureheads, I wouldn’t worry (much). Then again, we already have that godawful glow-in-the-dark legend stuff, so...you never know... :D" This can not occur, if it occurs, I and thousands of other "original" pirates will hunt these players or dock and abandon SoT!

    Good luck with that. Anyone bold enough to sail a hot pink Barbie ship is not to be trifled with. Arrr!

    If the SoT team in unhappiness brings any upgrade that brings a Barbie ship, anyone sailing with such a ship will not be considered daring, nor even considered a pirate, it will be considered a target for the real pirates!

    Do as you will, but you’re going to feel awfully foolish getting sunk by a hot pink ship with hearts on the sails. :D

    In all seriousness, I wouldn’t worry. I don’t think the Barbie ship will be coming to Sea of Thieves anytime soon. LOL...

    This would hardly happen, from the beginning my ship almost did not sink, I do not believe that a crew with a Barbie ship would have skill for such a feat!

  • If you think the pirates couldn't be "colourfull", I'm going to say only three words: Jack "Calico" Rakham.

    Of course @Amancebacabras who I know Calico Jack, he was called so thanks to his colorful clothes, but we're not talking about not being able to wear red, orange, gold among others, we're talking about bringing to the SoT pink skins, Barbie themes!

    And what about the 12 year girls that want a ship like that? or the 30 guys that NEED a ship like that? Why so much hate on pink? Its only a colour. I personally feel tired of only spot black ships at the horizon. Actually the pirates dont used too much that colour despite the flag, so its a bit pointless that all the players use black ships, but I suppose that disney does too much dmg with his Black Pearl...

  • @gt-damon-baird I have duly noted your opinion into my book of care nots.

    As I've said many times, the game is pirate theme, not Barbie theme, if 12 year old girls want to play SoT, they can not expect a pirate game to have a pink ship and all the rest of the pink theme, for the adults who need a Babie theme, I'm just saying this! The game is not done in LGBT theme, the theme of the game is pirate, and pirates do not use pink and LGBT flags!

    So this is about homophobia, now I understand. This is a pirate game where you can shoot yourself from a cannon. This is a pirate game where you earn rep caging chickens. This is a pirate game where you only eat "bananas" (sic) (no h**o). This is a pirate game where girls can freely be pirates. And maybe you know that this is a pirate game of the XXI century. The pink is a colour, and the flag is a flag of more colours, if you want only dark stuff, go back to assassins creed IV or some [Mod Edit - Please do not swear] game like that, but this is a cartoon pirate game, and in a cartoon pirate game, not all the chars have to be [Mod Edit - Please do not swear] killers.

    Now you're sinking into a whole different level of argument. It's fine discussing your irrational aversion to bright colors or whatnot, but leave LGBT out of it. I'm not sure why you seem to associate the hot pink "Barbie" theme with the LGBT community, but that's out of line. It's got nothing to do with LGBT anything.

    As for the rainbow flag, it fits just fine within the pirate theme. Like I said, flags are meant to be bright and visible from a distance. The rainbow flag is beautiful. While it was originally introduced as a nod of appreciation and respect for Pride Month, the flag is generic enough not to be tied to a single specific meaning within the game. It was added by Rare to affirm their commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion, but it can mean whatever you like. If you have your p*****s in a knot over that, that's your own problem. But the flag is here to stay. If you don't like it, don't fly it.

    EDIT: Wait... I can't say "p*****s"? Good grief, it's an article of clothing almost every woman wears. It's not a dirty word, it's what they're called. Are we to censor anything woman-related because it sounds too feminine? Can we say jockstrap? How about jockey shorts? Underwear? Briefs? Knickers? Sheesh...

  • Everyone seems to flee from the subject, the theme of the game is pirate, the Rare team must add to the game items and customizations concerning the time of piracy, where at that time you would not see a pink ship in the sea, you would not see a ship with flags with pink hearts, things that we nowadays relate to the popular Barbie theme!

    Just this!

  • Reminder to everyone that homophobia is a permanent ban offense on the forums. Please make sure you are well-acquainted with the forum rules.

    Also, @Amancebacabras, please do not swear or try to circumvent the profanity filter. I am going to assume that in your post was a typo and not an attempt to bypass it this time, but this serves as a warning- future offenses can result in a temporary ban.

    Colorful things are cool and good. This thread will now be locked.
