Hello everyone! I’d like to take a moment to talk about a creation myself and some others have been working on since launch: Boori Bay. Located in beautiful Boori and a short portal from Trollmarket (accessible from Aqua and PS hubs) within a natural bay formation and surrounded by a mountainous island, Boori Bay aims to deliver the penultimate naval/marine/ experience to Boundless Citizens (images of the settlement thus far can be found at the bottom of this post).
The general theme of the city is something akin to shipwreck cove from pirate’s of the carribean mixed with a bit of Boralus from World of Warcraft’s Battle for Azeroth expansion mixed with a bit of the anime Gargantia on the Verduous Planet (and other such marine type locales). The images below are from each source of inspiration, respectively.
Individuals joining Boori Bay will be asked to adhere to the general pirate/marine/european and new england coastal town theme of the build. Not great at building? One of our builders would be more than happy to make your abode for you to allow you feel right at home! I’m more than happy to get you in touch with our builders via discord with any questions about this point.
Individuals joining Boori Bay will not be asked to select a role to play within the community of the town, contribute X amount of items within N amount of time to maintain their position, or in any other way deviate from the way they are playing currently. Within our discord we will be more than happy to work with community members to help with resources or make trades that would otherwise get lost in the larger discords. Additionally we will be doing hunts, an eventual parkour course (see images below), and other events in the future as the town develops.
We are also looking at this time to connect to the major hubs to provide easy transportation to whichever worlds our community members need. We currently have access to Trollmarket, which in turn has access to PS and Aqua hubs.
While Boori Bay is welcoming any new community members who might be interested in joining, we’re specifically targeting anyone who doesn’t want to get lost in the crowd of a larger town/group but is tired of playing alone, as well as anyone with an eye for naval, aquatic, and european architecture. With any questions or desire to join please feel free to reach out via reply to this thread, PM, or on the official discord to Clexarews/Maarnt. Thanks to those who have read this far!
Pictures below:
The top of our mountain to one side. Some 1k+ plots have been spent to claim most of the land on the island. Once you’ve chosen your spot we will unclaim the plots and place a new beacon to add you to for your own slice of Boori Bay!
The other side of the mountain is more forested. In the future we are looking to build an armada out at sea with a parkour course going through the rigging/masts of the different ships!
A bird’s eye view down the mountain at the bay itself. We started playing with the official launch so it is a fresh project that is very much still a work in progress.
Stepping into town itself you’ll be hit with lovely turquoise gleam lights that reflect serenely off the water. The town itself will have many stairs and bridges built to allow for easy, if not slightly haphazard access to the different locations. Our end goal is to build housing on the cliff face of the mountain with different styles and colors to present the resemblance of an old world port city’s vibe as a cultural melting pot.
Underneath the bay is a large storage and crafting facility for the town’s founders.
The storage continues into a larger storage area that sorts blocks by colors. (ceiling WIP). Eventually it will have levels going up into the mountain with various walkways for warm red, bold red, strong red, etc. It’s been measured to be able to hold each type of colored block in the game.
Hard to see but this is the color storage system in action.
An early prototype ship developed by one of our builders.
And finally, designs and building is underway on our [code of conduct friendly] Party Place! Within the “Party Place” will be a solid metal beam for…structural support! Because what piratey town is complete without a “Party Place”?
Thanks for checking out our stuff guys, we’re looking forward to posting more images as the Bay becomes further developed!
