Aye, its a common subject. Comes up every now and again, alot of which may have recently been archived.
Always good to hear fresh ideas from newer members, and perhaps even to rehash some of the old ones.

We have told Disney what weve wanted for ship customization numerous times over the last year and half, including the 'send the link to Disney/Potco'.
We are hoping its nearing time to release it, not start developing it!

Note: POTCO developers and gms have stated that they review our site. We believe somewhat regularly.

Weve had alot more comprehensive/detailed suggestions for ship customization, or sailing features.

Flag customization
Sail customization
Cannon configurations
Deck design
Hull configurations
Repairing at sea
Captains cabin, or any place a pirate may call his home....
Realistic currents, and weather on the high seas.
These are generalized, whereas weve had other members go into great detail as to what they thought would be cool in the game.

Here are a few more recent threads that discuss ship customization:

well to add to that i want it to be more like making a pirate , to
adjust the length of the ship by that bar and have the amount of feet/ meters below it

as well as i want more ship types and more realistic ship types
the frigates and galleons look nothing like the actual galleons and frigates that sailed ill post a picture below, i would like the following ships in the game

East Indiaman ( type of ship that the pearl is ) should cost around 264k in gold
Ship-of-the-Line ( dauntless / endeavor ) has 100 cannons and would cost around 350k in gold
Galley a small Arabic ship with a few cannons and area for cargo cost around 10k in gold
Brig ( Interceptor) a medium size ship almost as fast as a sloop and more cargo 15k gold
Brigantine a little faster than a brig and holds more cargo 17K gold
Xebec a ship twice as fast as a sloop hold around the same cargo and has around 18 broadside cannons total and about 25k gold
Schooner a common pirate ship a slower than a brigantine but holds more cargo and guns16K
Cutter a very small ship hold about 6 board side cannons total and has a speed that of a sloops holds around 7 cargo 1K
Flute a ship smaller than a galleon a little faster but less guns and cargo room12K



here are some pictures of ships that should be in POTCO and that are already in the east India company game
