This game launched and I couldn't of been more disappointed.
It might be my 2020 GOTY lol.
Game is just too much fun with friends

Same. Bought it the day it came out and there was nothing to do. Sailing was fun and all, but meh. Started playing it again randomly and I love it. Wish it could have launched like this.
A couple friends and I tried it and now were at the point where enough of us want to play every day someone gets mad ships are full up.
We just pick up a voyage and start sailing and 4 hours later we run into enough stuff we want to do the voyage isnt even finished.
I haven't played the game in weeks, but, man, if I can get a husky/malamute-esque skin, I'm going to cave. I miss my boofheads so much. :(

Set in the crows nest with a telescope to be on look out for other ships and it could be a Watch Dog.

I thought that too. Some of the most fun I've had co-op with friends. Then a couple weeks later we were all burnt out and never went back to the game.

They can't die. You just retrieve them from the pet box in a new ship if they ever go missing.
I don't think that'll ever change, that's the game.
Yeah, kinda.
They've added a lot more to do, so you've got storyline quests, boss fights, more PvE elements, etc. so if you don't like those fetch quest type parts of the game, there is nothing forcing you to do them.
The sword combat is still bad. The gun combat is still average, but the ship to ship combat is a lot of fun.
i dont want it to change, I want it to get expanded on. More weapon types or enemy types, or expand the combat systems/options a bit. Add different types of voyages for the factions or add more factions with their own types.
Thanks. It was fun for a while I guess how long we'd be out at sea for some coins for outfits wore thin on my wife and I after a while. Also she hates pvp so that doesnt help XD
They have added more type of voyages per faction though. And they've added factions. Next month the gold hoarders are getting a third option besides riddle maps and X marks the spot.
Bit off topic, but how is this game solo? Tried it out when it released and was disappointed, might give it another chance.
I play both in groups and solo, and solo is definitely a different experience. You can still do everything, but you have to be hyper-vigilant and wary of other players. Sometimes when solo I'll just go to the seaposts and fish and do Sea Dogs rep, especially if I've seen other players that are repping Reapers. Then again, I watch streamers that are good enough to solo a galleon crew and steal their athena/FotD loot. It's still a game almost entirely about self-goal formation any way you play.
You most certainly can, the Sloop isn't even that bad solo. I'm not a fan of going solo myself since the game is a social thing for me, but my friend does it quite often. He'll take on boats bigger and with more people than him. More players can make it easier, but also more players means more chance for people to fuck up and not do things they shouldn't (OMG why did you anchor?!!?). In some ways solo is easier since communication is a huge part of the game and can ruin a crew if they don't do it well, and if you're solo you don't have to worry about that aspect of the game.

Give me a Whippet or Italian Greyhound and I will buy it ALL the costumes. An Australian cattle dog will do too I guess though.
Dogs are a great addition, with so many distinct breeds to choose from. If they are smart, they will make lots of different breeds and colours, because lots of people will want versions of their own pet/dream dog.

Thank you for your answers. I don't have anyone to play the game on a regular basis and, as you said, communication is important, I don't want to play with randoms. Guess I'll just try it out.
this is the main loop, but usually the "fun" part comes from what you do once youre out there.
Like the reapers flag has been a ton of fun for us. Pick a quest, go sailing for the quest, but look for anyone on the horizon or events to do while sailing around.
