some things I feel need to be balanced out


Recommended Posts

I  AM WELL AWARE THIS IS EARLY ACCESS but their are many things i feel need to be brought to light like resource avalability. 

gears, gold, even manure is far too hard to find. trust me i love a good resource finding trip but not when i have to risk drowning, sharks, being poisoned, going insane bc of being too wet to find a single peice of gold. and gears are too risky to get. fighting in water is hard enough but trying to dodge cannon balls while hitting a metel boat is not worth just 1 gear. Im sure klei is trying to balance the gears out but just wanted to say something.

 

and some ideas. 

1. fishing i think needs a bit of sprucing up. you cant just change the name and texture of fish and call it extravagant fishing, there should be a customization system similar to boats. like normal poles have no slots and can catch low teir fish but gold rods (maybe named something like flamboyant rod) should have a lure and line slot and ca catch higher teir fish. and theyre should be a couple of lures like, silk ones to gold ones to, mechanical ones.

2. hounds should be repaced with maybe panthers. hounds arent very tropical to me. although i will say the shark system is fenominal.

well i think thats all i have to say. but i do know they have big plans for this DLC and are working very hard.

Gears - Gears are actually too easy to get in Shipwrecked. Boaty Knights constantly spawn in areas where you've killed sealife (notably the whales) and they drop 4 gears each time you kill them, they're also really easy to kill as they have no form of short ranged attack. I have about 80 gears right now in my main SW world.

Gold - Arguably hard the find a lot of, but if you keep looking you'll likely find a jungle or magma biome full of gold rocks. Pirate Birds and the slot machine can also help.

Manure - Hit a monkey and all it'll throw it at you. You can get a lot of manure easy if you tick off a whole group. Though you do risk insanity however.

I've never found monkeys to be much of a problem when mining gold rocks, unless there are a lot of them chasing you. If you are quick you can get all gold before the monkey, if you feed a banana to a monkey you don't have to be quick. In fact the crazy monkey ball seems extremely underpowered. It is expensive to make and usually lasts for less than a minute. Giving away a banana seems much more effective.
