Row Boat/ Skiff option

  • I would love to see a row boat or skiff type option for the 4 man crew vessels. I think it would be a beautiful addition to the game.

  • The ability to shoot yourself from the cannons makes the idea of a rowboat pretty obsolete I find. You can get onto land much faster than you could with a rowboat, which makes up for the slower return. Though I guess having a rowboat could be pretty fun for traversing narrow rivers and caves on the islands.

  • @ultemas Yeah, like a new exploration method on islands !

  • Love it, Rare... please make this happen.

  • @darth-searic I don't know anything for sure, but there is a ton of row boats in the game art. It only makes sense that it becomes a thing in my opinion.

    I have a feeling this is likely one of the things RARE is trying to keep secrete honestly.

  • @ultemas i would really like the option so that I can take chest/chests back to the boat and not have to deal so much with sharks that close to land. Also the ability to bring back a couple chests would be nice.

  • @ultemas No, a rowboat is a much better option for cargo. Say you go onto an island and find two random chests, the chest you dig up, some powder kegs, and trap some chickens. You now have to ferry ALL of that back individually, through shark waters. A rowboat would save a considerable amount of time in those situations.

  • @ultemas even if it meant losing the ability to fire ourselves from cannons altogether, I'd choose the option for a rowboat every time. Way more piratey.

  • @daftpirate Totally. I would honestly prefer to scrap the cannon shooting and replace it with rowboats and swing ropes.

  • I'm pretty sure they've confirmed row boats I can't remember where but I'm pretty sure of it

  • Rare I'm looking at ya. Make it happen we need this!

  • @hotel-actual maybe on the logo ? Or in some trailers ?

  • There has been many rowboats in their art for the game, I think at some point we'll more than likely see rowboats.

  • Someone mentioned firing yourselfs out of cannon as a better way to get to land, while it is more practical I feel like the rowboat would be just more realistic and add some more feeling in to the game.
