Questions for the Dev Team? New Tavern Talk - post your questions! 4th Jan 2018
@katttruewalker Do you have any plans for more ships? If so, what sizes/types?
(Personal question for you, Katt. :D )
Will the matchmaking lobby stay the same as it is (a static menu where you choose your crew size, matchmaking then hop into the world)? And related to this question, what do you think of the ability of creating or breaking a crew directly into the world?
@ever-reddy haha exactly the same!! I tried my best to ask the same question as I remember it
@whenkoalasattak I'm not part of the Dev team! I'd love to know the answer to that one as much as you :D
@unfound
I've noticed they have been posting to YouTube on Thursdays. Seeing as they just got back from holiday this week, the next TavernTalk may very well be released next Thursday.@katttruewalker said in Questions for the Dev Team? New Tavern Talk - post your questions! 4th Jan 2018:

I thought you were possibly Katie Tarrant, Audio Intern. This clears that right up.

The almighty question probably everyone is asking...Any insights to when the closed beta will start? :D
What this guy said :P
Other than that, how will the forums be used from here till release? Anything planned? I think it's an important question to ask as well.When will @khaleesibot have an everything bagel?
On a more serious note, is there still more development going on with the hand to hand combat mechanics (especially sword fighting)? Right now it feels somewhat clunky(?) and unfinished.

Just make them send you to Redmond for a "business trip"!
Will 4 be the largest crew size available?? If not, what is??
Will you be able to invite another ship/crew onto your server/instance?
Will the animals have any other uses apart from the merchant quests??
Can we farm them? Can we get resources from them (meat,eggs & poison)? Can they be fired out of cannons?@katttruewalker will you release a Deluxe editions for the game? and if you do could you make it to where we get a ship that is a like Captain Salazars ship!

Ahh, for research? To.. better... err.. understand the US community members? By golly, I think you're on to something!
First off this must be said, Congratulations Rare for making an absolutely fun game which is truly unique and exhilarating! Now for the questions...
- Crew size- it would be amazing if we could sail with crews of at least 6 maybe up to 8 that way our friends aren’t left out of the fun, 4 just seems a little small.
- Customization- from your very own pirate to the ships you sail, it would be awesome if no pirate or ship looked the same. Different types of cosmetic additions and functional additions like possibly a harpoon gun on a ship, or a deep sea fishing chair, rod and reel, a battering ram for the front of your ship, different styles of sails, cannon placement, maybe areas to put “trophy items” to show off to your crew mates that you have collected that can be mounted on the ship.
- Combat- so far so good but it would be cool to see maybe a way for your pirate to learn new skills. Like say when you start out you don’t even hold the sword correctly, but the more you sword fight, the more moves you can learn and become more experienced.
- Fishing- I know I just mentioned a deep sea fishing chair above, but how about hunting whales, orcas, man eating sharks, Megaladon, giant squid, the Kraken... everyone has seen those old pictures of sea captains with a 15 foot tiger shark hanging up as a trophy on the dock.
- Stealing ships- so far in the technical alpha, we could steal another pirates ship until he respawned back on his boat. Maybe if somebody boards your ship and kills everyone, make the owners of the ship respawn on a random island with another crew members unique looking ship and you have to either go get yours back or leave the server to get it back... I guess my way of explaining this is... in a crew of 4 you start on one of the crew mates ships. So essentially your crew has “4 lives” if you will. You can take back your own ship or wait till all four ships are sunk to start over in a new server.
- NPC ships- will there be any npc ships sailing around, this would be a cool way to begin your armada. If there is a crew of 6, you could put up a friendly traders flag to the npc ship. They let you board to trade, then that’s when your inner pirate comes out, you take the crew prisoner or throw them over board and take their ship, now your crew has 2 ships and an extra “life”.
- Other enemies besides Skeletons- killing skeletons is cool, but there could be more types of enemies.
- Weapon types and fighting styles associated with them- possibly add different types of swords, axes, spears, muskets, hook hands that function...
Anyway so far this game is great, I can’t wait to play the beta, speaking of the beta... When is the beta?
Thanks again for a great game Rare!
