there MUST be something done with claims

Seriously i tryed everything to get a tiny bit of land,10Hours+ on the Sea and every single island that comes in sight is full claimed.

Sometimes its just 1 or 2 guys that claim the whole island for fun but you cant so shit about it.

If i find a claim without recent upkeep and place my claiming flag the timer just stays at 9:59 no matter what.

I know the Gameplan is sth like start at freeport >buy Raft to sail into lawless>build first ship to explore the ocean > find land to claim.

But at the moment the game ends after you build your first ship.there is literaly no way for me to play the game.

Imagine the game releasing at this state how woud a new player that buys the game like 1-2 days after official release even play the game? he buys the game for 60 bucks just to find out after a few hours that he litteraly cant play the game.

 

to fix this i woud sugest sth like this:

 

1.Only ONE Claimflag per player.

-you realy dont need more.

 

1b.Max crew member limit to 20-30.

-so you can still hold an island with a big crew but dont control half of the atlas with claim spam.

 

2.reduce the radius of the claimed land around the flag.

-seriously the circle land you claim is stupit big you never need that much land alone.

 

2b.reduce the claim radius to like 25% of what it is now and allow players to put mats inside the flag to increase it.

-like but X amount of wood/thatch/fiber/stone/metal inside and after X amount of time the circle around the flag groes like 5-10% bigger

until it hits its maximum at the range it gives now.

I agree with you.  It'll go down as the dumbest game design in the history of gaming.  They're going to lose 90% of the player base as soon as everyone figures out its impossible to grab land, but that's okay to the game devs because they got their money, as the game was truly made for the 25 factions that rule the map - the rest of us were used to fund/finance the game.
