player navys, i dunno that seems a bit far fetched, while i could SEE the possibility of it, i think thats more of when the pirates attack when you're on the ferry, no more summoning of the undead, they board your ship and kick your arse.

That doesn't explain why you're building a boat, see?

Perhaps cannons are PVP based? or used to blow something quest related up, like a battlecraft leve "blow up X monster" attacking X monster head on = a return to your bind point, and an armor repair, but if you seek the help of a craft who makes a cannon, and return to X monster with the BFG9000 THEN you call kill it.

Naval warfare would be sweet, but aside from naval, THIS IS FINAL FANTASY............... if they can do naval, they should go airship warfare, two airships crashing together, fighting... gah awesome.
I agree, of course, that's the other step, air battle: the last video as well as some former ones showed (CGI) aerial flight and battles, so I expect at least some quests and missions in the air, and maybe even air battles. heh, well we'll see.

That's a good observation, there's a lot of talk of airship in the game. You know, air battle would make a lot of sense considering there's one going on in the opening cinematic where the player character is actually there in the battle, if not participating.
I'm calling it now: the players can choose to join either the Knights of Ishgar or their dragon foes and participate in that side of the battle. This will be a main end game activity.

Woah, I know they mention building boats in the guild in Limda, but I thought that was purely a plot point, I didn't think you could actually do it.
The boarding actions at 0:46 are interesting, too.
Looks like there may be an actual player navy in the game - interesting stuff.

wth... what's this, player made boats and cannons?! Naval warfare ftw!!

they could be player fishing boats, that boat is tiny maybe for 2 people tops? maybe even 1? btw i sent you a PM
I agree, what's with the boats and cannons if you can't use them? Seems to make sense to me that you can do something with them.
Besides, I need targets for mah cannon!

Hmmm, but are you SURE that the cannons aren't for larger scale warfare and that the larger boats can't be crafted and used for PvP scenarios?

nope, i am not sure, hope for the best, expect the... average??????
This is all speculation, of course, but I bet that these exciting PvP plans that they can't talk about yet may have to do with Naval Warfare PvP.

Heh, that'd be nice. Anyway, I can't imagine players being able to craft cannons and boats without there being a use for them.
I guess what uses are possible will be made clear when the game has been live for a while.

i believe what we are seeing are higher end leves.... and if we can make these, i am sure player housing is on the horizon.
