-Animaster- Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Hello friends, Since we have a new game update that includes the ocean, I think it would be a good idea to allow us to generate island biomes. I think the world could have many islands that consist of 2 to 5 biomes per island. Another idea would be to allow us to pick if we want the world to have a bigger amount of smaller islands or fewer bigger islands. Smaller islands option would be mostly about exploration and survival while bigger islands option would still provide a good amount of exploration with greater base building aspects. Simply told, I really like the idea of having to explore the ocean and gather resources that are necessary for survival. What do you think? Would you like to have this feature? What other ideas do you have to make the island world more interesting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O_Atoba_Azul Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 It's a nice idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lennard Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 I'm pretty sure Klei will add more land to the ocean in the future. But seriously it would be quite disappointing if they just made the lunar island and rest of it is just water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike23Ua Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 You mean this? it’s Already been suggested man, if it’s not on Klei’s Radar at this point- we are all just beating a dead horse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They definitely seem like place holders for future retrofits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And there may be little problem with ruins and caves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think what could solve this issue is adding more mobs that drill holes around islands, crashing waves or simply allowing to build 1 boat per player.

Mike23Ua Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Whirlpools that randomly open up swallowing boats that are stationary for far too long would be the simplest option I think... they flush it down like flushing a toilet, LOL! But, that would also keep people from building awesome boat bases.. so, Maybe there should be some other way? -shrugs- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might use this mod for my server if it works well. Of course, the main rule would be: no boat bridges Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think klei should or might get rid of the whole "Boat bridge" thing. I mean it made navigation way too easy. You no longer have to put rivers and long walking distances into consideration when making a base. Just put some bridges between the thing and walk in a straight line. I feel like putting a boat limit for players isn't a good idea. Some people may have multiple loadouts for their boats. Some people also may just leave their boats in a dock and not use it for long amounts of time. So I'm not sure what a smart fix to this might be but it sure makes the game too easy.

Epicurio Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Boat eating/pushing mob, that spawn on open seas, could solve that without need to limit player Already written Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only use for them is RONKS and those sink once they hit water soo.... *SAD SEASTACK NOISES* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Animaster- Posted January 19, 2020 Author Share Posted January 19, 2020 Well, I expect to see new islands in the future but I think it will take time. That's why allowing us to generate island worlds is a good alternative for now. Also, I would really enjoy if the starting location would be a small island and you had to move to other islands to survive. This could be achieved with different world customization settings. Now there is no reason to move to other islands because all you need is on the main island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe make it so we can turn the World Gen Spawn Area to Islands and that would spawn a chast with a boat kit and a few oars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike23Ua Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 I think something needs to be done about placing boat kits to hop from island to island... this takes away ALOT of the games traveling now.. Maybe they should make the streams smaller so boats can’t fit in them? or maybe they can line the edges of the map with like those obsidian pillars that surround the Pig King, because being able to Boat Kit Hop just makes Wortox’s Soul Hop completely Useless. I do love the general idea of actual tiny little rope and wood Bridges between lands though- But I think you should have to place a bridge starting point on one side of that land.. and then travel all the way to the other area by foot to build the bridges other connecting point. At least this way any bridges built had to be Earned first.. instead of just tossing a boat kit into the Water and Ta-Dah your done. If they went with removing Boat Kit hopping and made actual connected bridges a thing this would make a Gap hopping Wortox significantly more useful in placing the bridges.

I think that's becouse boats are very slow, it's just easier and faster to use bridge kit instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naw man I think you misunderstand me.. I’m not talking about the large bridge in between Lunar and Main Land.. I’m talking about the cleverly placed Boat Kits in tiny streams... I will update this post with a GiF to show what I mean later tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also does not make soul hop useless, you can still use does in caves for example, or for kiting, besides souls are more usefull for healing at least for me.

I kinda just want ACTUAL Wooden Bridges that require you to place the first half on one side of the island and the second half on the other island to build a real bridge between the lands instead of those ugly round cookie boats.. they will serve the same exact purpose- Except you will actually have to travel to the other Biome First in order to connect the bridge instead of just tossing a boat kit in the water as the answer to everything.
