ATLAS 244 Posted August 13, 2021 Ahoy Pathfinders! We all know that you all have been anxiously awaiting the next patch and we're almost ready to give it to you. While we make the last few final adjustments, we just want to thank you for your patience and hope to deliver on your expectations with the next update. Until then, we want to give you a small peek into what we've been working so diligently on. Along with other "bug" fixes, we've made a small change to your friendly neighborhood spider friends that may have you and your crew reaching new heights! We've also got a few visual additions to spruce up your buildings to make things seem the hostile waters a little more hospitable. Finally, plodding its way on to the battlefield, we're bringing a new weapon to add to your arsenal that may leave your enemies a little "shell" shocked. Final Note Again, we would like to emphasize that ATLAS is still in Early Access, meaning many things can and will likely continue to drastically change - even in the middle of development. Anything discussed is only up to date as of the moment it is posted. Features and changes that ultimately make it to the next patch, as well as timing, may be different from what was previously discussed. As always, we appreciate the suggestions and feedback from the community. Please keep them coming! Thank you for all of your support!

Balwick 5 Posted August 14, 2021 Now we can truly live out the pirate fantasy of *checks notes* riding spiders Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr.Smith 9 Posted August 14, 2021 Will the spider now be able to climb the sheer cliffs? Urgently make a platform for him so that you can put a cannon there! Reduce the maximum height for Puckle even more! Be sure to make a platform for the dragon too! So that you can even put cannons on it! And even better if you make the entire map lawless! Offline raids are much more interesting than online war! Work, work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whitehawk 382 Posted August 14, 2021 A life on the ocean wave riding on our pets But we ate them in the end cos we're Pyrates not blo##y vets. Recommended tune , a life on the ocean wave, (Sargent/russell) or a similar sea shanty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
McDangles 28 Posted August 14, 2021 Is this an out of season april fool's joke? You guys sometimes makes me think you are intentionally trying to torpedo this game so you can work on a something from TenCent so you can get a Cosby room. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scapin 1 Posted August 14, 2021 Once again ... So sad to see what you made to this game ... The goal was to be a Pirate game ... Now Spiders Mount ... The fantasy is over for good. Bye Atlas... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Profanity13 9 Posted August 14, 2021 (edited) Too little too late. We've already quit, uninstalled and moved onto other games. If you want players to come back, stop throwing these useless modular boats down our throats and listen to the community suggestions. Spiders and potted plants aren't going to fix the problems this game has. The real content in Atlas is the player on player interactions, which currently are unbalanced, and not fun at all. Ship fights are too rare because no one really has a reason to sail around since good blueprints are impossible to find, and the ones that have them are too scared to risk it. Ground pvp is dominated by swivels carts that 1 shot and cheesy stunlock and torpor mechanics with shields and maces. It's just not a fun game to play. These issues with the game go ignored over and over and over again. Either listen to your player base, or just give it up. The path you guys have been taking is doomed for failure.

ari12609 24 Posted August 14, 2021 We dont Need Armor . Just Remove the Fucking Barrel from Ship PVP ... FGTS! Your choice to bring them back to Sea PVP was Stupits asfk and after 1 Year you makeing Ship rebuild after that 1 Shootings even Harder nice... You killed your own Game in Early Acsess and no Playerbase thats using your Contend means no Devs are needed anymore to create more and the Game will shut down.... But that Devlopment here is almost on zero and that little sparks with good ideas fails on bad integrations and no balanceing so no loose in my mind Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TridentSpoon 10 Posted August 14, 2021 @ATLAS Perhaps rethink your stance on PvE as PvP players don't seem to be happy with the updates you give.(195) Why Hardcore Full Loot PVP MMO's Fail - YouTube Perhaps watch this video and take note of the pic used for the thumbnail Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rallef 4 Posted August 15, 2021 i want to ride purple mice with wings, would you please, devs? Or is this idea not stupid enough for you? ... or better - I want to ride a bottle of high percent alcohol, this shold be more your thing for sure... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

roergar 1 Posted August 15, 2021 Hello ATLAS team, it's nice that you're bringing out a new update soon. But can you not even concentrate on the GRID Editor, that this is easier to use, maybe that you do a WIKI, what you set etc. You promised this WIKI months ago and unfortunately nothing happened. Then it would be great if there might be the opportunity to bring the resources back into play or if the private server operator could put them on your server. Then it would be great if you integrated an option for private server operators into the ini that removes the height restriction. I have a couple of islands here on my MAP and it's already very high and you can't build there anymore. Thank you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Master Roshi 0 Posted August 16, 2021 (edited) Wouldn't sea pvp become much more focused on blueprinted stuff if once you sink a ship you can salvage all the remaining items still on the ship for single use. so if you manage to sink the mythical gally you than can salvage about 30 precrafted planks some cannons and maybe a good sail (since its precrafted its heavy so less easy to get away with ). this will also make it so that you want to disable the enemy with the least amount of dmg to their ship so the "loot" is bigger . which will make the fight stay near the recently sunkenship coz of the potential mass of precrafted items. ( fyi: get rid of the barrels in canons ). Edited August 16, 2021 by Master Roshi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ari12609 24 Posted August 16, 2021 Slow and steady… like the developers work and their idea explosive barrels are fun in sea pvp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
igame1979 3 Posted August 17, 2021 especially stop resetting the games because if that happens I stop playing and I was there from the beginning Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eugen 24 Posted August 24, 2021 FINAL NOTE Again, we would like to emphasize that ATLAS is still in Early Access after 2+ years, meaning we forgot about the atlas progression map, we don't care about your input no matter if you were with the game since day 1, we will do whatever we want, take it or leave it kind of deal :) As always, we appreciate the suggestions and feedback from the community. Please keep them coming! Thank you for all of your support! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
