Minku's review and suggestions on Treasure Island

[Minku]

Rite... As a war world vetern, I present this review to ye lot O land lubbers.

First off, this is a GREAT idea for a world... and it is in most senses well done...

However... there are downfalls.

One mainly is that there is extremely little for pirates to do other then kill merchants... Which can get boring after a while... So.. give us pirates something to do...

Also, in a more imporant note... GET RID OF THE FLYING DUTCHMANS. They are more annoying then anything else, and only turrets and other dutchmans can kill it. In place of it, make a row boat, which EVERYONE can use... has little cargo space, and such. In addition to this, make it so you don't get ships at star up.. just yer little sail boat things and the row boat. The others you would have to buy... So no pirate galleons or the like.

Now, this means that pirates can only do hit and run raids and must go back to their base after attacks to unload cargo until they get a galleon. This lessens camping and such...

Also, the pirate sail boat thing should NOT have a pirate sail. Mainly because pirates were secretive. I suggest you get rid of the thing and just keep a flag, so pretty much a mimic of the sail boat.

Make the galleon incredibley weak, but infinite cargo... and make a war galleon for merchants that is pretty much like the pirate ship, both of which not having infinite cargo. This would make is so convoys would probably have to be made to protect large batches of cargo.

Edit: Just make the galleon get alot of cargo.. so there would be more then one needed.

Now then... row boats should be FRIGGEN SLOWER THEN GRANDMA. Faster then the "Druid" person, slower then the pirate/horse. All boats should have the same speed, but a differnt boost speed, Row boat not changing, sail boats being pretty quick, while the galleons being slow. This would promote thinking and not just charging randomly.

Additional suggestions.

Because export buildings belong to Jeh, you can't sell to them. Give them to someone or some dud account or something so we can get some money.

Make emeralds able to be obtained by pirates. As in, enough to get 20 treasure Cs. That or make a differnt way for pirates to get treasure C... So pirates can get build town. Or just get rid of the MASS OF ****ING TURRETS SURRONDING THE GOD DAMN EMERALD ISLE. Make one, or two. Put one on each side, which defends the sides, and a pirate can do a blockade run past the turrets and then beable to mine in peace.

Sell pirate cove to someone, So they can make the plimith into a light house and let it prosper. Someone like oh say me, The person who owns 70% roughly of all the stuff there, including the only pirate tavern. ((If I give pirates a stable food source, I should be given the town!))

Raise the coral reef tiles or make a new one. Its getting crowded. Ditto with all the other places.

Make Turrets buildable... Make it cost say 5 of all treasures and 10 power for the skill, and each turret costs 800 wood. So they aren't massed or something.

Make more moutain islands.. not flat ones. Flatones you can just run over. Plus you can easily die from a ship at sea if you lay refuge there.

And to go along with the above, more unique looking islands. Make a cresent isle or something, just not contant boring blobs.

Some place where you can repair your boat would be personaly REALLY liked... I like the fact I don't die much, and having to die or something to regenerate yer health is a pain in the ass. Yes, I know you regen, but thats really slow... Maybe some tile or something which greatly increases the regen? With no safe zone so people couldn't just camp it.

And again, some more boats would be nice... You have alot of vehicle slots, fill them up with differnt boats. No "hero" Boats, like the Black pearl or such. Just differnt classes of boats, like frigates and the like.

If I may, I would like to add some of my own Opinions:

Maybe there should be multiple person boats like a ship with a cannon so that TEAMWORK is enforced.

Maybe the island from the Pirate movie that has all the coins in it, or the island that was attacked by the Black Pearl.

Just my thoughts...

I've no idea about the gameplay on this world, but I do like the idea of a rowboat, in the sense that it'd be an interesting and fun model to make. Like the coracle on The Republic. Only with a pirate character.

Of course, I need to make a pirate first..
