Raving Templarson 8 Posted January 3, 2019 (edited) Nah the land they took was a resource area for the island so now the entire island is pissed at them because even before the buoys they blocked huge amounts of resources and a vast amount metal and those saying i should have been on for it, are you retarded? You realize people have other things to do right i was on 30 mins before they took it and we have a company of 11 sorry we wanted to build a town and preserve land resources.

Raving Templarson 8 Posted January 3, 2019 Besides we already had land put aside to give to others and they didnt claim just a flag or two they claimed half of our territory this was a major company forced out of another region with 2 schooners, a sloop and a brig.

Example: while taming, one of my company mates ran out of food and I ran some over to him. It took literally maybe 2 minutes out of my day. I didn't have to. And he probably would have lost his tame (or at least a good part of it) if he had to do it himself. What did I lose in the process? Nothing. In fact, I have a comrade who would do the same for me. Hours later, he and I climbed to the top of a mountain to go treasure hunting. It was my request and he agreed to help. We both died at least once during the process and without the other, we would have lost all the gear we had. Because we worked together, we both came out ahead. Moral of the story: working with people is not the same as working for people and can be mutually beneficial. Often when people say "I don't want to work for someone else" I think it actually means they are hesitant to overcome their discomfort with meeting new people. Even in our small group, I was hesitant to ask them if I could join them on the same island and join their company, but when I finally asked, they said yes, and I haven't regretted it at all. Yeah, some jerks will be jerks and make your life difficult. But there are also a lot of good people (just like you!) that would love to have another set of hands and another set of eyes, and someone to watch their back (even in PVE... damn wolves!). But you'll never find them unless you start trying to talk to them. And if it turns out they're jerks, just cut your losses and move on. You'll find a good group eventually That isn't it. Its the land grab then selling it or leasing it. Being taxed to use the land. That is what they mean. Eventually, you'll end up paying a tax to alpha companies no matter where you go.

Pretty much our company is 12 strong there is maybe 4 they are building all over the place destroying spawns ruining metal nodes once where there was enough for our village, now there isnt and why should we pay a tax on what was a resource resevoir of ours that the entire island used Even before we placed the buoys the resources got screwed we just annihilated it till they move and we can reclaim what never should have been theirs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Psykonalle 14 Posted January 3, 2019 The tax system in PvE is not needed. You pay taxes on PvP to be safer on a territory owned by a (mega)tribe. What do you get in return on a PvE server when you're paying taxes to another tribe? The answer is: not a damn thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JustShootMe 4 Posted January 3, 2019 I want to play PVE solo and have a small piece of land but that does not seem possible at this point. It is sad but overall I am having a great time and look forward to the game evolving. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Right now I'm just living on my ship, waiting for a solution to this claiming mess on PvE. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You are right and have since tried working it out with them but they continue to steal land and we cant retaliate due to the bugs within the game so till they are gone this is the way itll be. dont have to like it but in the end they abused game bugs and glitches and atm we cant do anything back besides blocking resources. If you wanna blame anyone blame the devs for making a system where this is our only available counter to the bullshit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don’t take soo much land that you can’t place ppl in it to hold it. if you have 25 claims and you have 25 members who build and hold the land then you prob wouldn’t lose any. You def had way more land than you needed. People are claiming the land you are not using and you are being a child by exploiting bugs to grief them. The system needs to be more transparent I agree, it is not bugged. It is the only way anyone can get land from ppl like you who went out there on the 1st day and took a whole island on your own. No one else can have any land because you take more than what you need. Either way I see it you are exploiting. They are just trying to play. bs,,, I am a solo player had two lots... with barely anything left a 5man company took it in 10mins.. and told me they would bug it to do it.. stole my whole base and can't respawn there.. I have been there since day 1... and gave up all my land to new players as they came in.. and rising tides still stole everything I had. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
