And even in those big islands we are strongly limited.
Bridges are a dangerous pathway that nobody would take if there is another way. And so players that play in south area are forced to stay in souths area to avoid crossing bridges. Yes we have boats but it's impossible to protect them in the long run.
We need surfboard or other kind of vehicles to cross water area.
So I think it's time that some water vehicles need to be brought back, even without modular aspects like fishing ranger said.
For what I've seen in the last year, it seems that development was not focused on the south area (new POI, exagerated hypertermia vs hypotermia, scarcity of construction materials, cultivated fields, fewer small towns, etc.). After adding boats, sharks and few POI the south part has gone forgotten. And I think that the delay of bringing back other water vehicles goes in that direction too.
Kayak would be nice, kinda lighter and faster to row over the motor boat. stand up paddle boards and not made for speed, so Kayak could be the fastest and most energy efficient one. Small storage maybe the size of a hiking pack or assault pack. Sadly, it would require new animations.
The small wooden fishing boat is nice -can't really put armour kits on it so the modular system for that doesn't really make sense except that the boat may or may not spawn in with a motor or fuel tank..
How about bring back the 'production' kayaks/canoes? (this is of course together with player made rafts and canoes)
How about adding half cabin fishing boats which have decent amount of storage when compared to the wooden fishing boat
Maybe a six seater RIB's for those who are more 'viking raider' inclined (where five passengers can freely shoot weapons).. note, the RIB DOES NOT HAVE STORAGE. This should balance it out from the wooden fishing boat and half cabin
and then the big boat, fishing trawlers... I notice there's fishing trawlers as world terrain... any chance at making some of these legitimate boats like in the 0.5.... maybe even the 'world terrain' trawlers could be turned into a prefab building so you can live in ?
+1 with this,
especially the canoe/kayaks and the larger fishing boats being added as usable instead of just as world decoration.
I agree with EvilMonk. What you're saying is not reflective of what is and has been happening since 0.8 came into play in November. We had broken vehicles for a month(meaning they weren't ready, which dev's acknowledged was the case as well), None of the teased features/mods of these vehicles other than armor has been added and you still cant add wheel armor to the Laika's even though the often appears at the Mechanic. The bicycles and dirtbike were so delayed after the initial 0.8 release, when they finally did come, they barely satisfied players who have all been clamoring for rafts/boats and mainly, planes. Case in point, it was explained several times that planes would return once vehicle damage returned. Well....vehicle damaged returned...and yet...still no planes. I don't want to kick a dead horse thats already been rubbed in your faces but the removal of all the vehicles was very damaging to your player base. Players, who you rely on to test and give feedback about the game since it's also already been established that is how things are done with this game.
Since you're open to suggestions here is mine. Bring back planes and rafts asap. Like within the next month or sooner. Bring back the radio for vehicles because not gonna lie....driving around without tunes for the last 6 months has been total B*llsh*t.
Kayaks, large fishing boats, jet skis, have diff motors, or ability to upgrade boat motors at the dock/fisherman at the trader to make em faster. small scuba tank/rebreather and flippers . make the rafts upgradeable to houseboats where u can install motors on them at the traders, those should go as fast as the motorboat currently goes, motorboat should speed up 10kmh as wll for top speed of 40/43, ability to place bed inside houseboat as well for spawning purposes
speaking of, increase the amount of beds u can have to spawn in, having only one bed sucks. especially on most servers that allow more than one flag.
EXACTLY!
I agree with both your statement and suggestions,
tho i will admit that im beginning, after years of playing/supporting and enjoying the game, that our input/feedback/suggestions will now be ignored by the devs, i hope this is not true,
As a quick fix, the sharks could be disabled for the time beeing or at least be added to the server settings so they can be disabled on servers that need water to be accessible.
I would say the small raft (craftable thus always avaliable) and paddleboard are the first priority and most easiest to implement. So to get access to the islands again and enable players to leave them.
Could bring them in with 3 mount points that can host driver/passanger or modules like watertight bags (moduls can be added later).
I guess the new small rafts/paddleboards should consider weight distribution with the new physics. So one driver has to stand in the middle slot, if you bring a passanger they would need to use the front slot and the driver uses the back slot or you will struggle with weight distribution out at sea. A second passanger can additionally be added to the middle slot. Later passangers can be replaced with modules like bags, chests, ammo boxes, maybe even a mg mount if it can easily be copied from the other modular vehicles or a makeshift attachment for a boat engine. Of course weight to float ratio will affect performance or sink it at some point.
Big rafts would be nice to get excessive modularity, where you can attach several square floating platforms together and build on them much like the modulare base system. So it can become a floating house within some limits. Of course that is more complex and for later to add after the more simple vehicles.
Maybe at some point in the future i still hope to see medium sized boats like the fish trawler or a small yacht that comes with a bed and kitchen inside to serve as a mobile base.
For gameplay it would be nice to have a larger yacht in a few years that can house a squad. Only one is on the map so it is something prestigious to fight over and of course it will have a hot tube for the people that want one for so long.
I like the new modulare vehicles and physics so far. They have a lot of potential and everyone will see it once they are fully implemented. Good things take time, just keep up the good work.
