ATLAS

Patch 556.1 - New Year Patch

Recommended Posts

Ahoy Pathfinders!

To start off the new year right, we are reinforcing our commitment to better supporting our Xbox community. Unfortunately, there have been several game breaking issues affecting Xbox players recently. To that end, our primary focus for this patch is getting out a fix so that Xbox players can log into the game without crashing. There is still a lot more we need to do to improve the Xbox experience, but we are taking the steps needed to get us back on track. Additional improvements and fixes will follow in subsequent patches. 

We have opened a new crossplay compatible Public Test Realm (PTR) so that Xbox players can also participate in testing out patches prior to them being implemented on live servers. Xbox players can gain access to the PTR server by filling out this form: https://forms.gle/9LEBUWF8EXx15WTt6

Servers will be going down to deploy the update on Wednesday January 11th February 1st around 12PM PST. Servers are expected to be back up shortly after.

  • Fixed various Tame House data tracking issues.
  • Fixed an issue with ships sinking unusually fast after being repaired.

  • Fixed an issue where ships gridding at the same time loaded into the new grid on top of each other.

  • Improved performance on several structures/items.

  • Updated the Tame House UI to show tames in a list.

Xbox Only

  • Fixed instances of crashing with tame structures.
  • Fixed issues of not being able to use a tame structures option wheel.

Known Issues

  • Rabbit Statues lack collision.
  • Xbox crashes when viewing tame information while a tame is mating or gestating inside a tame structure.
  • Xbox crashes when scrolling through the menu too quickly.
  • Xbox players are unable to purchase or use some holiday items.
  • Xbox players are unable to reload mounted weapons. (Cannon, ballista, puckle, etc.)
  • Incorrect UI for the tame hatchery and swarm house.
  • Overlapping player inventory UI.
  • Tames are unable to be unloaded from Tame Cargo Railings.

We realize there are still a lot of known issues with this patch, but our priority has been getting out a fix for Xbox players crashing near tame storage structures. There will be another patch soon to address the above issues. Thanks for your understanding!

 

:anchor: Final Note :anchor:

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! 🙂

Yay, still no xbox only servers,. I'm encouraging all console players to avoid this game until you stop forcing us to play with pc tyrants too busy getting their rocks off wasting away console companies that can't login for whole weeks at a time. Limit the size of the maps and theres only 4 large companies needed to take over all the grids lol bravo

MIKE PAPA HOTEL, maybe you should try to get a PC. This game was made for PC not consoles originally so guess what nerd? The "PC Tyrants" will always be here.

I went from Xbox to pc , it’s so much better. Why waste your time complaining about the bugs and hiccups on Xbox ?
They are working on it , it’s not easy to transform an entire game from one platform to another. Just go get your laptop or dust off that desk pc and hook it up to steam, Nvidia, or whatever… it will make your gaming experience so much more , and evaporate the frustrations of console deficiencies. Someday the game will work fluidly between game consoles and pc but until then, either have some patience and understanding, or get yourself a little pc .

The idiocracy is absolutely staggering. Get off his case about being on Xbox. PC is not better in a lot of ways (hackers, viruses, malware, upgrades, lack of social interaction and more). I also agree there should be dedicated Xbox server(s) to help mitigate issues involving cross play. And if your on console DON'T waste your money purchasing the game again and a PC just to play this. There's far better PC ONLY games out there.

Really wish you guys would fix the resources so they match up with what you're seeing (ie; copper nodes should like copper nodes, cedar trees like cedar trees etc). There are so many things wrong with the game, but this really irks me because it's such a simple fix, even if time consuming.

Xbox series x - Atlas: patch 555.3

samsung 2022 65” tv 

singleplayer/host

this game launches, but graphics are horrible. PS2 quality. 
 

Dedicated xbox servers would be nice, i got 8 friends ready to play but these graphics are hard to look at. 
 

cross play is not fun.

It's nice that tickets are no longer marked as "solved" when opened, but will they actually be addressed with valid responses that are not pre-scripted?

I am a long time gamer and an old gamer have gone from pc to console and back Snail Games aka Wildcard same folks who do Ark have potential for a great game but shrinking the servers and cutting off what is a huge client base of players aka console players will cost them in long run. How is it Ark has pc only, and crossplat (xbox on pc) with console but this game does not and has not since it came out???? And yes i have played Atlas since it came out on both pc and console and  I lived on Ark from its first days on console and even after i went back to pc because i grew tired of waiting on series x's to be available.
