The new building mode is very cool awesome sauce, but there’s a few problems I personally have, that I think some of you can relate to.
- It’s not really useful outside of capturing islands, which in my opinion makes it one sided for clan wars instead of fun/usefulness.
- Its really annoying to build ‘hills’ as there’s is only a single set height, nothing in-between, higher, no creating caves, thus having the island look like a 2 layer cake, a nothing sandwich.
- And last, there’s no flora decorations, its only crates and barrels and all that stuff, meaning you have to work with the greens that are already there, which you guessed, its hard and not fun.
- Customizability, almost all islands have the same color scheme, because there isn’t a lot of different color options.
My solution to these ‘problems’ :
- To make the islands have more usefulness, I would introduce a small system where if someone buys something off a merchant from your island, you get a cut of that money.
Another one, a Trading Stall that you can put items from your inventory to sell/trade, like having a piece of armor for 6k, then you get 95% of that 6k.
Last one is small but cool, cargo, if someone buys cargo from your island you get like 30 galleons for each one they buy.
These are just examples, a lot more cool features could be added.
Like the red barrels, selling cargo,
- Simple solution,
First, have smaller building blocks, this already gives way more opportunities to decorate your island.
And second make it that you can place terrain ON other terrain that you already built, this would 100% make island building more interesting with being able to make caves or complicated cliffs.
- Plants, you can remove or regrow, but you cant place them.
just add a lot of different trees to the decoration tab, or make a new tab for ‘nature’. decorations and uses.
Stuff like those wrecked ships, rocks, all tree variants, those clams & shore wood, and just others like vines you can place.
- Everything is gonna look the exact same in a month, same buildings, same colors.
Being able to ‘choose’ different colors to color your fort with would change the game forever, having the already existing paintbrush item, you can paint your decorations, buildings & even plants (plants limited to a few colors: green variants, orange and white for realism).
Thanks for reading (if you did) and please like so Vetex sees this and considers adding these features.
