@badeyedbill Hit boxes have been normalised and so it doesn't matter what height or width your pirate has every model is treated the same.
@genral-disaray @aspr7n Do you have a source for that? Or is it a guess?
I think it would be cool of they had different hitbox sizes for larger players but the bigger ones had more health. There was a Bethesda game, i forget what it was called on the 360 what had a system like that. Same as a Batman shooter, forget what thats called also l**o! But the skinnier players had less health and where more agile where as the bigger characters where slower but had more health.
@knifelife It's officiall that the hit box will be equal no matter weight or height, i just dont link the source cuz i dont remenber in wich developers video i heard it. But yet 100% sure it was what they told us.
Now, i can see some problems with that, especially if headshots are a thing. But for now, same hit box. If they decide to change it they'll tell us.
@knifelife I don't have a source on me but it was said in one of the interviews, they want an even playing field thus all the hitboxes are the same, all weapons are same, all health is the same etc. etc.

@weedstar-deluxe
I'm choosing ultra skinny in order to blend in/ hide better. Not a big advantage but I will find and use any I can.About the width of a tree trunk, I'm thinking, or the mainmast.....
@knifelife i cant remember the source dude but i'm pretty sure that i heard it from one of their official videos.
@el-dth-taco they teased a possible fountain of youth in the future we you might be able to change your appearance. no other info for now
