i have been thinking and have come to the conclusion (again) that naval combat would really reinvigorate this game. it would give the class system some mileage because the class system would work really good for boats (you pick viking longship with more oars or more sails for example). i mean, think about it, if you look at a viking longship you will know the enemy are fiendish vikings with axes perhaps?? this is what callum was talking about when he was saying that the class system would give visual cues, that's boats 2, anti-boats 0 now! ok but moving on, think of how many people are enjoying sea of thieves or other games like that like sid meiers pirates or something. if bannerlords had boat combat just think of all the people who would say "oh wow bannerlord is having viking longship? i love vikings television show now available on netflix!" they would flock to the game like flies on (i don't want to say but you can google it! haha). also, it would make the respawn system more easier because, if you know deathmatch has a problem where people spawn away from the aciton. however, the game would always spawn someone ON A BOAT! the boat is always action packed (trust me i am a sailor and im telling you it is very fun
DDD). so that's like 5 reasons to want to give this to the bannerlord community and 0 reasons against. i think the community would love naval combat with the viking longships and perhaps also sarranid galley?? i know fietta will lock this thread because he hates the idea of naval combat but i really think it would be like a straight shot of adrenilane to the HEART to this game. hellish and powerful do you know what i mean? stay gangster, fellow taleworlds forums.
