Island of PIRATES

@giangi877

I reckon they use the sea dog outpost.
Make it so that if u sail in and dock u be merged in the public server. When ever u sail out u keep all u got but be spawned at a random island. This way people cannot lay and wait to ganked ships that are leaving the private instance to be sunk in a black screen.

I like the core idea of this.

Edit: One big counter. Dont know how to avoid but if this is added, it can be used in a wrong way. U being chased? Sail into outpost and sail out to be spawned totally somewhere else. This must be avoided!

@weakdexx Yes they use sea dog Outpost, like a unique server, for the counter u say it could be, but lets say that the point for joining the unique server is really at the side of the seas, really far, and when you reach it you have to do something , like playing music to get access, like for the legend in the tavern.
This idea will add those thing to keep the player playing this game, it will force player to reach legend lvl10. ATM i see the community play this game after the patch , then after 1 o max 2 week most of people leave, the competition that that island can give to you keep you in this game, the random boss keep you in this game for pve player, i would also add some real dungeon, harder longer , whit more level and boss, that will drop unique skin.

@giangi877

It is not about sailing into it matey.
I mean we have a defender and attacker.
Attacker chases the defender. If the defender than can sail into a private instance and sail out again while keeping all he got. Than this private instance is game breaking for the PvP aspect of this game. Any defender would just rush to this point to secure their loot.
All im saying it that this need to be avoided.

@weakdexx ye i understood what u are saying, lets say that you cant join this server if you have treasure on ur ship? also there must be different point from where you can join the island so ther will be not the thing of people camping the acces point, or maybe just the legend lvl 10 can see it whit a special map that they can by at the tavern .

@giangi877

Aye we are on the same page.
I do think A10 is to high req. (i could sail in as A10)
But if u want this public instance with lots of pirates grouping together i reckon u should do a lower or no req at all. This way most pirates are able to join and i reckon on this idea the more the merrier.

@weakdexx ye u can are right , but i would like to avoid the fact that if every body can join this server the seas risk to be empty at all, maybe at the start there will be not that much people , but player will be forced to rush to legend, i can say that you can join it if you are legend, any level of it

I had this idea 07 04 2018

I think Sea of Thieves should have a central hub like Destiny. A big port town on it's own server so we could have as many players there as possible. You should be able to choose if you wanted to start in the 'Hub' town, or quick start the sea adventure like we do now.
First and foremost the Hub should be a safe zone. A place to meet and chat to other like minded pirates and plan. Then go as a crew into the game proper. The Hub Town should also be full of hustle and bustle. Meaning NPC's going about business bringing life to the Hub.
I'm just going to list some things that could be there.
-Bars for PVE players
-Bars for PvP players
-Private bar for Legendary Pirates
-Merchant factions should have grand headquarters were you can receive special missions.
PVP Mini games like:
-Ship battles. Betting their own gold on who will win, teams or solo players would fight in the seas around the Hub for spoils, rank and notoriety while other players watch from the shore.
-Mini boat pirate battles on a lake.
-Firing range. With drunk option.
-Dueling. With drunk option.
-Cannon firing range.
-Cannon crew mate firing. The fired mate could have an after touch to correct shots to hit the giant target.
-Arena battles, fist fights, sword fights.
-Pub games (Cards).
-Drinking games.

All these can be PVP with gambling options for the those involved or those spectating. And all games are available to spectate by all players in the hub if they choose. Just bring some life and community to the game.

That's the basics.

Sea of Thieves has a community, so give the community a place to meet pirate to pirate. Whether they PvP or Pve.

@qu1etone I promise i didnt saw ur idea and i didnt copied it, but man im happy to see someone else that think like me, we have to push this, it will be fantastic, amazing, this game will have life.

Rare wants players on their boat sailing the seas.
Being actual pirates.

Not some Tortuga wannabe pirate flex fest.

@barnabas-seadog so they give u tale tales thats all on the island, this island would be an add, if they want us every time on the boat sailing, give us more to sail, and the pirate some time went on the island for some rest.

@faceyourdemon i agree whit that, but i still think that this lobby ( server, separated from other server) must be joinable from every server and from the seas, its more real, for example, u are whit friend and u just did a raid, after that you just want to chill and relax, than u sail to this point where after doing something like playing musi ( like legend tavern) you will go in this lobby, if you can join it from the main menu you will totally skip the sea of thieves server.

@targasbr For the point of pvp, its becouse if u are able to pvp other ship in a SERVER where all ship can come from all server it will be a real mess, no one would reach the island that is the most important part.
For last point i really think this will definitely fit Sea Of Thieves, they want us as a community, this Island give you a chance to do something different, like a Luna Park , you can really meet other player and talk whit them, you can have fun whit the mini games.

@faceyourdemon I dont get it, the point to reach the Island is at the corner of the map, far from other Island, you cant hit and run, you have to seal a bit before reaching the point, it cannot be abused if you dont allow ship whit treasure on it to travel to the Island, lets imagine a normal scenario, u are doing Raid, a ship is coming, you finish it and loot stuff, you cant run on Island travel point, i mean yes u can , but you will not be able to travel becouse u have stuff on ur ship, thats the way of counter the safe zone abuse. About Hit and hiding its impossible, if they hit u while u are doing quest before they can travel to the Island they have to reach the corner of the map.

tbh this could be a great idea in theory, basically a social area/ crew finder hub. would be a great way to meet new players and potential crew mates without the random unpredictability of open crew.

@stonedengram Yes, but can be more than that, a place where the community can create something.

@faceyourdemon I try to explain,
point 1: in this HUB as u call, the pvp is disabled and you cannot interact whit other ship stuff, so no one can steal ur supplies, drop ur ancor or raise it.
Point 2: when you get out of this unique Server you will join one of the random server of sea of thieves, so you cant know if the ship will spawn on ur server or not ( like the jump server) .
Point 3 when the ship get out from this Server will spawn at random outpost, like when you enter the adventure mode from the main menu, so is pointless to wait at the enter point, and if you think that ship can wait you at the enter point i say that there are 4 different enter point, at each corner of the map so no one can camp .
Point 4 , the seas will be empty if you dont give player a reason to play, for the one that arent legend yet this island access could be a really reason to push and play, for the legend this give something more to do, becouse if you are Athen lvl 10, what this game give to you? of course you can always do quest and raid for money, but you would need to have a lot of skin buyable at the outpost, and for the moment ther arent that much.
Point 6: in this Island you are forced to be friendly in the way you cant attack other player and ship for counter the thing you said before ( stealing supplies ecc.) but gives you a chance to challenge other player in different way, funny way like the race whit grog or serious like the sword pvp in the colosseum,
also ther will could be a challenge of outfit, 10 pirates walk whit an outfit and other player that want to watch can vote.
So at the end, this will keep player playing it, who loves pvp would like to come to this island for pvp challenge and ladder, who doesnt love pvp can come just to have fun, or will have the seas a littel bit more free from the pvp hero.

@faceyourdemon we had a misunderstantig i think, i mean is physical place becouse you reach it by sealing, but its in an unique server joinable from every server, so when you join it you will be far from island but you can see it and you ll have to seal to reach it. but its in another server differente from others

Very nice idea.

@faceyourdemon yes, lets say its like when at the end of the tall tales you go to the shore of gold island, its out of normal server, thats it, but you have to change server to join it. i dont know if i explained well, you have a point, reached that point you will be transfered to this unique server, the also can upgrade the shore of gold island into this, they already have it.

Give me your feedback

@targasbr I would remove the possibility to attack just in the SERVER (LOBBY, HUB ) where you are not supposed to go there to fight other ship but to interact whit other player and challenge them in regular way whit the minigames that can include also a 1v1 whit the ship.
I appreciate the way you trust in the community but imagine if you can go in this server whit other like 10 ship at the port of the island and you are free to sink them, steal supplies, take them ship away, ecc, it would be a big mess, whit people allied waiting for the ship that are coming from other server just to attack them and sink them, or even worst on the island we you cant even make 2 step and 4 people jump on you killing you. If you see, in the Arena lobby you cant attack noone, becouse they now that you would spend all time killing people, not me personally but ther are a lot of player that would ruin the experience that the Island was thought for.

@targasbr I know what is the base of the game, but in this Idea you hare in a special server whit just one Island where all ppl from all server can join, it have to be a safe zone becouse that specific server is not thinked for have ship war and people killing other people, it would if the crew can conquist the Island, but is a different thing.
You have to be safe to go to the island and chill whit other people, you can't take pirate freedom ok, but the pirate can have a path when they are in this server.

Awesome idea!! I totally agree with you! The game needs something that let the players challenge in a deeper way, like a lot of other games! A ranking ladder with rewards where you can lose or gain points, a neutral island where every servers converge in which activities are available everyday. What do you think about dungeons with bosses and special loot?

@targasbr so you saying, the game is diyng so let's it die. This Idea can bring back people to play
