Too Little for so Long

They could make good ideas out of whats already in the game, and what was in the game before. Put crew members on enemy ships, and improve the boarding system in the game. Instead of the enemy AI being so straightforward and just attacking, they could have a bit of personality. Enemies could have the choice to ditch their friends to save their own lives if you are strong and intimidating. If you seem to be an equal match, they will still attempt to go face to face with your crew. If you seem weaker, they will attempt to sink you, and even try to board your ship. This could lead to skills that could allow you to look intimidating to get rid of a decent amount of enemies, or make you look like an amatuer due to the shape of your flag.

Not only should any ship be able to board you, but you should be able to board any ship. After reaching about 1/7 of your enemies ship health you should have to choice to ditch, board and loot, sink, or threaten the enemy to get better loot. They could also add in the option to drop dud plunders you get off of ships. So much could be added into the game, and it is all mostly part of the game already.
