Let us spawn in lawless

[Auron18 1]

With the new claiming update you made it impossible for small companies to claim land. So let us place beds in lawless land otherwise we might as well not play. 19 hours to take land with a 4 man crew with jobs is a little crazy.

Sail raft up to shore. Wall it in with stone. Put bed on raft. Ta-dah!

OP THESZERDI is correct my dude. It’s al little tedious to get set up but at this stage that is your solution my friend. Also with the new claim mechanic it is now possible to steal vast amounts of territory from the mega companies very quickly. It sounds dangerous but I assure you it works. Just check out the live playatlas map to see where the mega companies have their main bases (areas where there is a high concentration of claims) and claim territory where those same mega companies only have 2-3 claims. You shouldn’t be contested as they most likely don’t have beds there. I did this yesterday and we were taking land very easily in a good area. Also make sure you don’t claim too much land or otherwise your own flags will be quicker to capture. This last update has been a godsend for smaller groups.

 

additionally, you can now share land with allies. This has led to my company and 6 other small companies join forces without the need to merge into one company. It has also helped each member of each company specialise in a specific skill tree to ensure we have everything available to all groups.  It’s kinda like a cheesy roleplayer town atm but it really works well. 

 

Good luck my dude.

 

i hope any of what I just said is helpful for your group. If you need a spot I can try to help you if you are on NA PVP.

Sorry but some of us in the company even quit our job to play the game properly. Either you give it all or you leave it. It doesn't help to moan here in the forum just because you don't go hardcore. Go hard or go home.

Find a friendly alliance That will let you build in their land.

They should allow to spawn on any bed in lawless, not just beds which were placed on raft/boat.

Because at this point lawless zones don't work as designed (at least as I understood this design) - temporar place to live for new players who are not part of big company with claimed territory yet. So it should be as this:

• new player spawned in Freeport;
• levels up to lvl 8 (max lvl in freeports) and builds/buys his first raft or sloop;
• sails to the nearest zone which is Lawless;
• sets up a small base to continue character progress.

But instead we have this:

• spawn in freeport;
• buy raft/sloop;
• sail to lawless;
• set up small base;
• die to lions/wolves/crocs/griefers/any_random_bug;
• spawn in freeport...

I think being able to re-spawn on bed placed on raft near the shore is actually exploit. I don't think it should be fixed, but instead devs should allow to spawn on any owned bed in lawless.

The issue with the beds being on boats is even if you wall them in they can still be cannoned down easily, where as if you could spawn on any base you could just base inland making it much more difficult to be wiped out. I don't see the harm in letting people spawn in lawless areas with beds placed so your not boned out of hours of gameplay to get out of a freeport.

• We tried taking land from a company with two islands. They would have had 100 plus flags and it was going to take 5 hours.....

Good point, you dont even need cannons to sink a ship. The new ramshackle sloops can even be sunk much more easy than a raft. Just a few fire arrows and blubb blubb. Building a cabin shielding your bed on a sloop only draws attention and brings you higher up on the death list of the roaming trolls.

As you see Wildcard is going the same way in Atlas as in Ark :

Weaken defence possibilities more and more (e.g. 30% more explosive damage), turning the survival MMO into a troll/alpha tribe heaven.

I don’t understand that mentality, us small groups need love to.

Wait, it takes 19 hours to claim land? You mean to destroy a flag and place yours?

I cant  see a reason to block spawning on beds in lawless.. 

 

Devs say their meta is lawless is temp area to get going after freeport shiz. Ok so I play the game how you want, I leave freeport, I go lawless and make starter base and die. Now what ?

Raft or skank sloop back to my newly empty base ?

 

Pointless...

[Talono 434]

As long as everyone can destroy huge stone cubes and ships offline that did take a week to build in just a few minutes this game is pointless.

On the Ark NoTame server a metal raft warfleet with plant turrets was a force even dangerous with the owner offline, in Atlas stone bases and galleons are just a 5 minute flamearrow/mortar fodder.

I found all the solutions to my problems A1 unnoficial server. You all should check it out they have an ad up on the advertisement boards. 

[Talono 434]

I prefer official servers, hope they allow spawning in lawless. It is a mess placing new beds on rafts day by day.
