The title isn't a joke; I want to host a naval battle. I think having an old fashioned exchange of ammunition between a few sailboats would be tremendously fun, so I want to A) see if anyone is interested, and B) try to set one up if you guys are willing to participate. I am open to suggestions on rules and the date for the event, but I do want it to be a team event where it isn't just a free for all. It seems most reasonable to start with two teams, but this can change if anyone wants. To make the battles last longer, I think it would be best to host them in a free-aim lobby and also limit the weapons people can use.
My idea so far is get two teams with one sailboat each, have them start at opposite sides of the Alamo sea, and then charge at each other armed only with a few weapons(certain ones excluded due to them being OP). In order to get the best experience, I think the best settings are:
GUNS:
Musket - The main gun to be used in the fight
Sawn-off Shotgun - A good weapon for close quarters
SNS Pistol - A weak gun used for suppression that only the Captain can use
SPECIAL WEAPONS:
Tear Gas - Not exactly practical, but if pulled off can be devastating to the other ship
All melee weapons - If you can swim to the other boat and kill a person with a melee weapons, that kill is well deserved
Fireworks launcher - It doesn't destroy the boat even when it hits directly, but it does leave a patch of fire after it explodes, making it useful for distracting the enemy. Only one person per team has access to it.
BOATS:
We'll start with the Marquis, but if the game becomes too slow or boring, we can switch to the Speeder or Jetmax.
GAME SETTINGS:
The battle(s) will be held in a private freeroam session with no auto aim. In order to disable auto aim, go to story mode, pause, select settings, then go to controls. There will be a option to change your aiming preference.
DATE OF EVENT: Saturday, August 16th, 10PM BST
PLAYERS:
Players can choose one of the three roles available to the teams: Captain(Steers the ship, uses a SNS Pistol and is the boss. 1 Captain per team), Gunner(Uses Muskets, Shotguns and Tear Gas. 2-6 Gunners per team), and Heavy(Has everything the Gunner has access to as well as the Fireworks launcher. 1 Heavy per team.).
Let me know your PSN, what team you will be on, what role you want(first come, first serve), and what additions to the rules there should be!
