So I was Thinking that Bows and short swords are not what Pirates used, and to get a better chance at drawing new players in, we should consider Adding Muskets, flintlock pistols, crossbows, knives and Cutlasses. Not only would this attract new players (increasing server popularity) but would add more value and optional ways of dispatching enemies.
Just Imagine sailing on your ship and approaching an enemy ship, and doing battle with Muskets and Cannons while the others shot back at you.
Idk how this would be possible, but the thunder sound in minecraft would sure make a decent gunshot sound effect. What do you guys think? Nothing really stands out about this server without Pirate guns, because what are we doing with cannons in the first place if we don’t have Muskets?
It just feels like plain ol minecraft with ships without a pirate’s arsenal. The Knives and Crossbow thing is optional, but Basic primitive firearms is a must.
