Yeah! So...
- Waves - chance that it can wash off objects from the floor, like water filters, cooking stations, planters, chests... mostly something to keep an eye on?
- Pirates - I'd have to say old school pirates. They give off the more "fun" aspect where modern ones may seem a little "too soon"? They can send projectiles to damage the raft, and also they have their own hooks and ropes to gather your loot maybe? I don't see them ever getting off the boat they are on, just some ranges damage. The longer you play, the harder they are, also with what I suggested with a beacon, if you have one active, they will come far more since "you're on the radar".
- The bow and arrow I totally get, maybe a harpoon gun? One of those stationary ones? Especially if pirates come, having some way to fight back at range would be good!
- The multiplayer on same raft would be awesome too! I think it would be important to do solid players though, since there would add a challenge of not pushing each other off! Haha
Thanks so much!!
