if you have any ideas to help improve the retention rate of players that might be fairly easy for sea cap to implement please list then

my idea is to give each new player a 5 ship and 5 radar plus 1000 moves to be used with in say a week and encourage them to ,mark an in game map both verticaly and horizontaly so they could orientate them selves and have the advantage from the start of being able to see and move better

people may or may not like this or agree but i think for as a help for new players it would be easy to do with out a major change of the program which is the main thing if you have any other ideas please add them with luck we can come up with something which we need to compete with the 100s of other games that are avaliable on the net

I personally miss the old and new pirate rankings list and also the 1st 2nd and 3rd rankings awards. I also miss the rewards for most storms, who logged in the most, who stole the most, who lost the most, etc. Don't know if this qualifys for easy but it's what I miss and what got me started playing.

Hi, i know that when i started playing some visual overview would have helped a lot. What if, instead of a map giving co-ords there was a scaled up version of the radar with more of the game space visible - say one square for every 40 x40 block for example , with any extra shown graphically as they used to in maps with a " here be dragons " warning or fog bank. That way you could see the number of ships in a block before deciding to go in that direction or not -perhaps each ship could have a number indicating pirate strength instead of name and colour... I dont know if its possible but it would be really nice if the ships could be seen moving in real time too. yarrrgh.

I would like to see this happen.

Remove the mystery about what crew does and cannon etc.

Tie a power factor to each power that can be tweaked. Have these powers adjusted so that everyone in the game has a chance. Example if you have a 10 hull and 3 obervation when you attack a pirate that is stronger than you you should almost never get through but you should not get fame. or maybe just one fame. If two pirates of equal strength then the tweak would mean that even if you can beat the other guy 100% of the time then change it so that you can only win 20% and same for them. If you are attacked by a weak ship your success rate should be around 5% and increase with their fame. At least we would not be killing the young so effectively that they quit because they can not get a foot hold in the game. The weak pirates should get a reasonable chance to get through the big guys. Just think if they attacked me and got 2000 or 450! I would think that that would encourage more play. Use referals in a more effective way.

There needs to be a way to level the field so all can steal some gold.

Have "ocean quakes" , typhoons, and hurricanes, and undersea volcanoes that constantly changes the location of small areas of the see. You have a good garden, great but be prepared to pull up stakes and and move it from the area of devastation

Just my thoughts..

how about a smugglers cove where a pirate could go to buy items with their gold and to sell to make more gold.
or maybe items could be found in towns, islands or oysters that can be taken to this cove so as to sell to earn more gold. Of course there could be storms or attacks or sea serpents that can take your plunder away from you just to make things more interesting.
