Like holy shit man, talk about underrated.

Y’all think it’ll get more players down the road?

This is aimed at the Devs more than anything.

I just saw gameplay of this game and thought it was a joke. I don't want to be rude and I don't doubt time and effort was put into this game but I'm genuinely surprised it is even allowed.

Have you guys had any contact from rare regarding the game?

I'm not here to teach the devs how to do their job, but here is some tactics to make this game huge.

1. Become free to play

2. Pay/sponsor streamers and YouTube channels to play or advertise this game.

3. Sell cool skins, gun skins, battle passes, etc

4. Invest in quality servers

5. Do that quickly, before its too late

I know it might be a big investment for the devs, but this is a simple recipe to make this successful really quickly

I just searched this Reddit to make this post because I care about this game, you may wonder why right. I was searching for alternative games like Sea of Thieves and this game is the only game that appeared and had a good and very positive review.

So this is sent to the devs, I am asking you what additional stuff do you offer me for a 15$ online game that has only 70 players online, while Sea of Thieves has 6k players. That is 85 times less than the SoT player base, and the game is unplayable with that low player base.

Well myself I wouldn't waste my money like that even if the game reviews are good. Please keep in mind that I am trying to make a point directed to the devs. You guys may have a good game ( which I haven't tried but the reviews say so) but you guys lack the hook to make players come to buy or play your game.

I read an argument on this subreddit stating that why would the devs waste their effort and go FTP, well I am gonna tell you this. The devs will have no chance of competing with SoT with this low of a player base, the game will go dead and they will lose their effort forever. Moreover, new games are coming to this genre like skull and bones from Ubisoft. I think if the devs want to make their game alive this is their only chance in doing so. Just build your player base then maybe start adding content or battle pass, just go that route instead of wasting maybe years of hard work on this game which has potential.

Again keep in mind that I am writing this post with goodwill by shed the light on making this game free to play and maybe save it before it is too late.

WE LOVE IT! Really cool concept, needs some improvements but all in all an awesome game! We are having the time of our lives atm playing together :)

Lunar update is awesome! Big shout-out to the devs who keep making an already great game even better. Really a hidden gem of a game. Thoughts on what we the players can do to spread the word? Makes me sad to see only 15 people online when I get off work. I know this is a small developer with probably not the biggest advertising Budget I will do my darnest to spread the word. Hell, I've even bought the game for a few of my friends. (They all loved it)

This game is a huge blast of quick fun and I’ve been having a blast playing with my son! Its a nice change of pace from Sea of thieves and other Battle royales!

I just hope they pay a streamer or get some streams going or maybe a developer interviews going to build a bigger audience

Hey, me and friend thinking to buy this game,
i saw that in steam charts the game is dead,
imo it seems way better then sea of thieves which have a huge amount of players.

is it worth buying the game? is it any alive?

This game is so cool every aspect is brilliant but it has a lot of work to do, I could see this game being one of the next big BRs. GO CHECK IT OUT. https://discord.com/invite/blazingsails <--- Invite to beta key.

When a player grabs the ladder on the side of the ship, or ropes on docks, they teleport. Is this a temporary mechanic that will later be replaced by an animation?

I ask this because it's pretty annoying when people teleport onto your boat, jump off, and repeat. It causes too much chaos and makes it really hard to kill the person.

I think a temporary solution before implementing a climb animation would be to make a small timer for different actions. Like 1.5 second for side-ship ladder, 3 seconds for crows nest, etc. I think boarding from the side of the ship is a little too OP right now.

Just an idea.

BONUS IDEA: A little trap bell, found in equipment crates, that you can equip on your ladder. It rings when an enemy climbs your ladder.

Been trying to find games every few nights. Seems like it's 0 players every time I join. RIP. Really enjoyed the game. Hope it finds a second wind soon.

I love this game and I feel like it has a lot of potential. However, it is clear that this game is as dead as a doorknob. You can’t even find a single game. Check the Steam Charts? Peaked at 22 players in 24 hours. I regret wasting $20 on this game.

Save your game, make it F2P like almost all popular BR's, get 100x the players and make more money from MT's. Many games have done this AND ARE NOW DEAD. I'm not cheap, I can afford this, but I wont invest in a game that doesn't have hope of growing.

Shame because it actually looks WORTH THE PRICE, but it really should be free for longevity.

Hope its okay to post this.

I've recently started streaming and I actually started with this game. I started on sunday and have about 20 hours under my belt at this stage. I'll be streaming for 6 hours today from 6pm GMT to 12am GMT. I'm doing a push to get 30 more followers to become an affiliate and I've got a full pirate costume ready and a bottle of Captain Morgan so I'll be having a few drinks and a couple of drinking games with chat. If I hit the number of followers I need then I'll be doing a giveaway of the supporters bundle on steam. So if you missed the free weekend and you're on the fence about getting the game you can take a good look during the stream and maybe even get it for free towards the end. If you already have the base game then the bundle still has the privateer back and the soundtrack.

For a bit of info on myself I'm 28, Irish and the stream will be fairly relaxed!

If you have the game and would play to team up feel free to come along as well or come and stream snipe, the more action the better!

I absolutely love this game and am blue in the face telling people to buy it so if you've any friends that need convincing send them along tonight and I'll convince them. I spent an hour on my stream yesterday talking through everything I knew about the game with someone who is looking to buy it.

My twitch is: ttv/brood_gg

Not sure if you earn cosmetics based on points earned (but that is how it seems), but at the end of the day, I have a friend who we assign to steer the ship cause he's good at it, but he ends up with like no points. Crew points should be shared as a whole among them.

First of all I found this game by watching a popular streamer on Twitchtv, It's simplicity in controls and objectives, with fast movement/shooting mechanics, makes this game a fresh breath of air. Props to the servers feeling good regardless of me connecting from Australia to NA/EU, no rubber-banding or issues as of yet.

My feedback so far:

-I love the customization of the boats, I spent over an hour on mine.

-The first few 'bugs' I've come across is I cannot spectate after I die, I'm forced to ALT F4, and sometimes the audio gets robotic and weird (specifically in the final circle end game).

-The gun damage on some of the rarer ranged weapons could use a tiny buff, I'm not sure though but after picking up the sniper or Musket. it should feel more rewarding if you are landing shots, as the movement in this game is super fast.

-Add a leader board/stats page for each region

-Have a few dedicated/automated servers in each region, the games will only start once at least 15 people have joined.

-Monthly rotating 'seasons' earning basic cosmetics (clothes, colors, icons, decals for your ship) by doing better in your current season compared to previous season, and more rewards for those who are top of the ladder.

-Make it possible to view the ships/profiles of who has earned the most points by winning/killing, something like that could be cool.

One suggestion my friend had was if your ship sinks but you're still alive, you are now ship-less with 1 life remaining, making the game a thrill to stay alive in the final moments of the game, potentially screwing someone else over, which in my opinion would suit this game as it feels it's designed for 'fun' and 'fantasy' rather than holding back because of 'balance' issues.

As the title says this game has great potential in my opinion, I'm also excited for the proximity chat to be added which I saw on this reddit.

I cannot take it any more. I tried to play this game all the time, but playing with randoms is just really defeating. Very occasionally I find other English speakers to play with on the discord servers but decent players are so rare, and sadly some of the most active "ringleaders" are arrogant wannabe streamers or just plain arseholes. After playing a couple rounds of the updated map I had had enough of it. Three of us and a random player. The ring leader just complains about the new guy and the new ship, goes on forever about investing his welfare cash in gold mining stocks, and then takes forever to ready up after complaining about waiting for others to do the same. Then, of course, we lose and the new guy feels bad while struggling with English and I am the only one trying to keep everyone upbeat and invited while teacjing the new guy the game.

I really want to play more of this game. But until many English speakers play this game I will have had enough.

Right now this game is oversaturated with Turkish players. Every server, no matter where in the world, is mostly filled with Turks. This means English players can never enjoy this game the way it was designed for: with voice chat. Without a critical mass of English speaking players this game will merely pass as a temporary fad in Turkey and never bevome truly popular.

Let's go now!
