Gotta love these changes

[Realist 504]

You guys were mad that they added metal and paste in the first place. What did they do?

they lowered the amount of metal and paste needed for stone

wow, it was the fact that metal and paste was added in the first place. Nobody cares about the amount.

like I was saying, bad decision making.

[Blackthron 18]

Wasn't logging to game after that a i d s stone patch. Do you say they've reduced amount of metal needed for a wall? 

So, those who destroyed his walls yesterday got tons of metal and paste and today he can make new, reduced in price, walls?

Great point, Realist!  How do you feel about it?  Oh wait.. it doesn't matter... You don't play, and you're only here to stoke the flames and get people even more riled up... 

Pretty sure a reduction in resources is a nice step in the right direction.  Of course people are going to complain when things cost more, but stone walls are also pretty much impenetrable to most to anything except really determined PVPers.  So yeah, they should have a noticeable cost.

Obviously they can't completely revert the change, their ego is too big for that.  The primary issue here is they apparently are unable to look at the big picture - 

There are 225 Grids in the game.

There are only like 50 Grids that contain Sap in some form.

There are an additional 5 Grids that contain Coral in some form.

So, 76% of the game will have a challenging time making Stone.

The 24% of the game that has easy access to Sap/Coral not only can make Stone defensive structures in mass - but;

- They don't have to worry about the 76% blowing up their bases, because Organic Paste is needed for Blasting Powder as well.

- Organic Paste is also used for Fire Gel/Fire Arrows - and the 76% who are constrained on Organic Paste will now build Wood... which the 24% will be able to blow up with their blasting powder or burn down with their Fire Arrows.

In closing - the game designers literally have absolutely no idea what they are doing.  The patch today ensured that I personally won't be logging in again - thankfully Anthem and a number of other distractions are coming out this weekend and next month.  Also apparently Conan Exiles has made vast improvements as I see their Steam rating is now up to Mostly Positive.

Atlas had such great potential, shame it was managed by an inept studio - reminds me of ArchAge.

I totally agree with you on almost everything. The one thing is disagree with is when you said they don’t know what they are doing. 

Now before you think I am arguing, I am not. The reason I say this is I bet if you look into where the Megas are you will find they have the spots that have paste abundantly available. So that is why I say they know exactly what they are doing.

Just like I told the other guy. It isn’t game balancing. The Megas have the islands with the abundance of paste available. Everything is working accordingly

HOWWWW??? HOWW DEVS CAN BE SO INCOMPETENT??? WHY DO I FEEL BAD FOR IT? 

I had such hopes for this game... sadly it's run by kids who snort coke off streamers cocks

I know man, a lot of people had high hopes. Yeah the Megas are becoming a huge problem. These streamers need to stay out of the game in general. They are merely preying on players that they know can’t defend themselves from 500 people. 

Really getting tired of the streamers.

Well.. streaming gets attention to the game and that is good, I guess.

But devs has to stop watching these streams. And stop reading comments there. I mean, streamers are often noobs and dont know game mechanics. And the viewers are the worst! They would whine and cry.. buff this.. nerf this... BUT THEY DONT EVEN PLAY THE GAME!! These couch specialists... STOP LISTENING TO THEM and listen to your actual playerbase...

If they formed over the money for small tribe/company servers they actually would gain players. The thing is they are already spending A LOT of money of these other servers. They just should have combined eu and na. They have plenty of room

Oh. I see you're back for more forum attention.

Ok man, try to stay on topic this time. Last thing we need is another thread closed

[mndfreeze 92]

You don't even play the game nor own it. Why do you care about streamers playing it or not, or the stone structure changes.  Shoo Troll shoooo.  All you are here for is to sow dissent in the player base and seek attention.

I will be buying it when it comes out on Xbox so yes my opinion matters just as much as anyone else’s. I don’t want the game to be crap when I get it.

once again, please stay on topic

[mndfreeze 92]

I guess we can add "liar" to the list now too.  You clearly stated in past posts that your goal here was to talk shit about and cause trouble for wildcard/grapeshot and that you have a vendetta against them.  You've stated you don't own the game nor plan to buy it.  NOW suddenly you're going to buy the supposed xbox version.
