Water Element in FF

[Sebastien_de_France]

Water management is probably the farthest frontier to conquer !

• Fishing ponds with flood gates where widespread especially in small ponds. You woul grow the fish in the pond, drain it partially and pick up the fish in baskets.

• irrigation : could add some flavor to farming (granted this would almost involve some kind of layers and bring the game into another dimension) but worht a thought though.

• Water moats : you can build nice walls dipping into water but on flat lands how fun it would be to create moats at the foot of your walls and forts in the low lands.

• Rivers : would mean fords, bridges, ferrries. Watermills, flour mills and forge jackhammers…

• Sea : ports, trade post, shipyards…

• Sea raids…

Probably the hardest to conquer too.

As for docks/bridges, water gameplay is actually a lot more complicated than you’d think in our setup. It’s something we’ve experimented with during development but ultimately decided to shelf for the time-being.

It’s a mechanic we will likely revisit, but it may have to be some kind of water-themed DLC as the tech and features necessary would be a major undertaking that’s not likely to fit the timeframe for the base game.

I did mention bridges in a post i made and they have no intention of including bridges at this time… Hopefully, later?

I like the idea of moats, there may be a problem with getting water to them. Could divert a river maybe?

Fishing ponds would be nice, make our villages more wholesome.
