Hodo 147 Posted January 18, 2019 Here is what I got from the livestream... LOTS of spamming in chat by children. Devs prattling on about stuff no one asked for, like more bad SotD designs... a small and a larger version to go with the current medium speed boat yacht design. Oh.. and they showed human babies... for human breeding and said it will be based on the current breeding system... LOL. Not much other than them trying to look.... "piratey" and act cool....Ā There was one in a bad dollar store Jack Sparrow costume, another wearing a cavalier hat and a musketeer fencing cloak.... yep... no clue. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hambo 34 Posted January 18, 2019 The sub will be added to the official game, possibly in Feb. Ā Subs are exploration only, no torpedoes. One thing I learned is that in game lore there was a "Golden Age", where everything ran on magic, much like IRL everything runs on electricity.Ā Apparently 'magic' will be rediscovered over time in Atlas.

Chat part i agree with, the Dev part not so much.Ā the first part was literally talking about player concerns, they're looking into what are the best solution to, balancing weapons, fire arrows, melee, pistols, balancingĀ wild creatures and other things. Basically showing that they are listening, they just can't kneejerk react to peoples concerns as it could make things much worse down the road. Ā Ā Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are already magic elements in the game with more on the way... and a magic powered steampunk looking mini sub is one of them apparently. They touched on the back story of Atlas a bit during the stream. Basically the world was more advanced at one point where some form of magic was used to power things in the world. That world fell and things are now more primitive but traces of the old world technology will be present in the game.Ā Edited January 18, 2019 by MaxPower 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And didn't know, we know some weapons, but for us it feels like armors and weapons could weight alot. However... let's be honest,many weights of things in this game are pulled out of the ass, materials being heavie than crafted item or in reverse etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That spamming was people wanting them to address the issue of cheaters within the game, which they never did address as far as i'm aware, it is hardly being children when we want answers to such a serious issue and theirĀ response to that, wasĀ banning the question instead of taking 10 seconds to answer it, They admitted to reading twitch chat, so they chose to ignore 80% of their stream that had legitimate concerns about the integrity of the game. If they did address this in the short amount of time I missed of the stream, then disregard my reply, but if I'm correct and they did not. It shows an extreme lack of respect for their community.Ā Not to mention the fact they said they "dont know" why people have an issue with wild creatures, which means they are ignoring all the feedback from every post mentioningĀ (there are ample posts on the official forums providing this feedback, I have made one of these posts myself and also brought it up in the official discord)Ā them being overpowered, which wasĀ being brought up since launch..Which considering it is up to us that their game survives, is an extremely poor move.

No..., or don't remember, they said they gonna leave a vod so might try cheking their stream and lurking for the first half hour or something.

All I saw from their stream was nothing but feature creep of stuff the majority of people didn't care about ( like cosmetic skins and such) when I feel the majority of us now want stuff in game to be fixed before they add more problems to the pile.

As they also mentioned in the stream, they have multiple production groups... One works on new content, one works on bug reports, one works on new art, etc. Another thing they talked about at length is that they will not do knee-jerk fixes... Every suggestion has to be thoroughly discussed to make sure a small fix here doesn't cause bigger problems elsewhere in the game or even conflict with future planned systems yet to be written.

Talono 434 Posted January 19, 2019 Sooo... summed up they bring a ton of stuff no player is asking for or interested in ? But they dont touch the really relevant issues for players : - lag - tons of alpha creatures - 6 hours to claim a flag. No claim thanks to daisy chain bug - game only for megatribes - offline ship sinking by trolls every night 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
