The physics with the sinking look neat and I liked pirates of the burning sea during their beta even though the game itself sunk fast.

What I don't understand with this game is how exactly does it work regarding who gets a ship? where do the ships come from, how does someone get to be in charge of one if you need a bunch of people to get it running.

Would be kinda funny if you could fish out the crew of a ship you sunk and get them to join your crew, assuming they don't immediately try to sabotage you out of spite as soon as they got on your ship.

There are a lot of questions to be asked on how this game would function.

Like, how many people can you have on one ship?

If one group goes treasure hunting on a island and anchored their ship, can you just have half your crew steal their ship in a piratey way or is it going to be video gamey and the captain player has the only keys to start his ship?

If you can steal it, are they basically marooned until the next ship picks them up or will they just fast travel back to Pirate Hub 1?

Are treasure and goods going to be physical objects you need to put into a ships hold or does everyone have really big pockets?
