Palworld Player Finds Floating Platforms That Let You Build in the Ocean

A Palworld player finds a mysterious set of structures out at sea that can be built on and shares the location's coordinates so others can find it.

Reddit user Orionirico is sharing a clip of an impressive pirate ship base they built in Palworld. For those wondering exactly how the player managed to pull this off, they cleverly built on top of floating ruins in the middle of the water – an idea they got from another Reddit user. The player admits that the pirate ship isn't the most pragmatic base, as there isn't a ton of space, but the incredible design more than makes up for any practical shortcomings. Also, seeing as Palworld players can unlock multiple bases, having one that's just for fun isn't likely to be a detriment.

In order to make sure the base wasn't ruined before completion, the Reddit user disabled raids. There is also potential for the structure to be expanded upon in the future, as many commenters offered ideas to make the ship even more immersive, such as placing sea creature-like Pals around the base.

As the game is still in its early stages, many players have been discovering all sorts of fun exploits and sharing them with the community. One Palworld player even built a massive waterslide that launches the main character into a nearby lake.

In addition, another player made the Shiganshina District from Attack on Titan in Palworld. With the game's robust customization options, it truly seems as though the only limits are the player's imagination when it comes to construction. The game is far from complete, as Palworld has unveiled its future content roadmap featuring new Pals, areas, and bosses, along with crossplay and PvP.
