GI Joe has been working for years to remove Cobra.... But as inept as Cobra Commander is, he is very charismatic and still gets recruits and financing.

I am a member of a large Russian-speaking community and we have a specially created group of diplomats speaking English, German and French to overcome the language barrier. We are friendly and adhere to the principle of "tooth for tooth" without attacking first. We have bcli clashes with the Chinese and they have never been able to even start a dialogue, unlike other Nations...

I'd like to add my voice to those that enjoy the lawless areas far more than claimed and if anything would want it to be expanded rather than scrapped. Claimed land areas are practically barren of people and interaction. Lawless on the other hand are vibrant areas in my experience. We have many great people on my grid, chat can be very lively and there is land opening up all the time for newbies to find a place to call home. Please devs, don't even consider messing with or removing lawless, ppl asking for it just want to take a large area for themselves and exclude others - if they want to engage in the politics of claimed areas then there is plenty available to them and they should use politics to gain a foothold there, not expect new areas to open up so they can get in before anyone else. We, the PVE lawless, are happy to live close to others, with no rules, rent or taxation - just enjoying the game.

Can you guys finally fix the animals and crewmembers and even players falling through boats and floors? Every serverrestart our tames, crew (and we sometimes as well) are dead because they fall either through two or three decks or two or three floors, animals as well as crew, and it's starting to get old. I know this isn't ark, but you're using a lot of the same code, and I've only seen this happen in ark once or twice in over 1300 hours. Please fix this!

They are unable to fix anything properly, people griefing ships because they can pick up more from the ground than they should be able to, well devs fix is let people glitch out on ships that aren't theirs when trying to enter them rather than fixing the real bug being people able to pickup too many items, log out, log back in, only have 250/250 weight until they drop an item or split their stack in their inventory for it to show the real weight again. So now people just hang from ladders on boats who didnt' pull those up and encumber it like that or just toss items on the deck for it to get encumbered. If they made it impossibru for ppl to get overweight in the first place even the ship dropping method would require a lot of players to sink a ship that way cuz the items dissapear rather quick. Their claim that one of their dev's steam accounts got hacked is also a blatent lie, claiming this wouldn't occur again it only was an invitation to cheaters and hackers to show how quick they could fuck up their network once again. Not to forget that there are countless reports from cheaters and hackers being submitted via their ticket system which are going unanswered where these cheaters and hackers are going on with their malpractices until this very day (if servers were up though). Everything they claim to fix they break it even harder, my two examples are just two of them, I bet alot of dissatisfied customers could come up with plenty more stuff. Oh and not to forget their wonderous Fountain of Youth they implemented while about all players in game who have a character since launch are now receiving a very nice age debuff which they can only get removed when they travel to a Golden Age area where all people have to be right now and it only can hold up to 150 players in theory, in practice this wouild mean about 50 players to play it as it's meant to be played. But right now people just have to run through the lagfast that it is naked and hope for the best to reach the magic sparkles at the end of the cave. Same goes for powerstones apparently the much anticipated and praised end game they are trying to fix with each patch while their core game mechanics are broken beyond recognition. How are people supposed to play this game when everything is bugged and we have to find workarounds just to be able to progress in nearly each part of this game rather than playing as intended. Far worse might be the interaction the devs have with this community, far too many people havea already noted and stated that they mostly listen to cringy streamers and crybabies in general rather than looking at these forums and see the daily return of many topics where players are most frustrated about. No they gonna nerf all kinds of stuff cuz some half ass streamer is giving them a bad rep about it on stream. The only thing those devs want is to keep this game look like it's shiny and fun on the streams until they raked in enough of our hard earned cash. Because let's face it, they robbed us from our money to let us play this aggrevating crappy coded "so-called-pirate-mmo". If I wanted to grind my ass of for materials I would have kept playing 7 days to die or would have reinstalled minecraft to have a better experience in harvesting and building stuff without having to fear that none of my work is still there when I log back in. Let's have a look at the two twitters that are posting most of Atlas news and updates, now the official Atlas twitter is probably not into replying anyone at all just for posting update news and patch notes when Needed. Jatheish on the other hand is far more active with giving the community constant updates when shit goes wrong but also keeps posting ETA's that are never and are always late. Even seen people complain once about an ingame server message stating servers will restart or go down in 20 minutes, so players were rushing to a safe haven when on sea or make sure they got inside a house to logout before server goes down, what happens, server goes down only 5 minutes after that message appeared, making alot of players unable to logout safely with all the negativity as a result, players losing just their gear and die once ok very annoying, but those who never had a fair chance to park their boat somehwere lost alot of progress once again. Now besides their shitty communication skills and their non-existant clock reading skills the only one who replies to certain tweets is Jatheish, the pain in the ass there is that he only replies to either positive comments or comments that have no informational value what so ever. Like last night he replied to a guy asking how often he must have said a certain word this year already whlist the majority of replies on his tweets are about the cheaters, the bugs, the game not being fun in general, those replies are being straight out ignored just as most of the topics are being ignored here on this forum by any official person. They implemented moderators and community admins, god knows why because the ones who should be more active on this forum are the devs, they should learn how to use their eyes and brain at the same time and read the massive reports of players that are begging for fixes in areas they have ignored since launch. Yet they bring out and even brag about their new features while the core mechanics of this game are still broken, people are still playing on 250 ping servers whilst having to deal with all the buggy shit that comes with predators, land claims, ship building, alphas, cheaters, hackers, and now we have rollbacks and constant patches that break stuff just a simple like doors no longer opening, if someone would just run the software they managed to compile before they release it as an update they can prevent so many gamebreaking issues with each patch they release but nope, we are the guinneepigs, we are the rats in the wheels and why? Like most paid forumtrolls state here it's an Early Access game you should have known what u signed up for... It's early access I get it, but doesn't that mean that what it describes in the EA stuff is that they are taking notes from customer feedback and listening to their playerbase on how to improve things? I've seen their Twitch live Q+A stream and I can tell you, there was no real Q+A part, it was just them talking about things they gonna implement while the playerbase is crying on the twitch chat to be aknowledged and to point out that devs are just ignoring the whole Black Butterfly incident by not even mentioning it once in their nearly 2 hour talk. To be honest the best description of that stream I read on this forum somewhere was someone saying those 4 guys at the mental hospital got some time off together and placed in a room with a webcam, this made my day just that little bit better because let's be honest, this weekend was horrible for those who actually took the time to play the game. Rollbacks, Fountain of Youth and Rollbacks. This fountain of youth thing is so poorly designed and shows how badly these developers are connected with their playerbase, we had freeport at launch that was overpopulated and with that mechanic they were lucky enough that there were plenty of freeports (and lawless areas) where people could eventually spawn, it wasn't enough for launch but it was somewhat managable. Right now u have to have the entire population of one server (NA PVE fe) to rush to one single grid where that fountain of youth is at, one grid that can hold 150 players maximum (in theory but in practice u get a ping of 250). So let's say about 5-10k players who have started near launch are now all over age 90 and have a debuff for being that old implemented on them whilst they dont' have the alternative at hand to make babies in game they are all forced at the same time with a serious debuff to find that fountain of youth before their character dies permanently losing all the progress and gear and landclaims and boats (if u play solo or have really small company where u all die before reaching it). So yeah, if one of those devs would ever have played on an official server and had to deal with all the previous bullshit before even thinking about going to a fountain of youth together will the rest of the playerbase at the same time they would have never implemented such a feature without having alternatives for breeding or even releasing something that makes us all get a random younger age. Cuz this issue will repeat itself in a couple of weeks when EVERYONE who's now 20 again will be at the age of 90 again, and yea you have to be 90+ to get a nice buff each time you go back after the age of 90+ you get a buff over your buff. So tell me, am I exaggerating anything here? People who played this game for a few weeks now know very well that the way Grapeshot throws out updates is like a blind man playing darts, throw as hard and as fast as you can and see if one hits the bullseye, more misses than hits in this field. There are some obvious forum trolls here of which I hope they aren't being paid by Grapeshot to keep the negativity down by having so many people countering it with rediculous answers as: git gud, or learn to play, or game isn't made for soloing. I get it it's an MMO, but people all have to start out solo and the game mechanic only let's u stay on newbie island (freeport) until lvl 8 which is so low your chances of survival outside freeport are really small when u play alone and start to find land to claim to build a ship in case u want to start your own company and not become another companies slave to go pick cotton or other resources all day long whilst the guys who run the big companies get to play command & conquer while u play minecraft/lumberjack simulater. They already stole our money after their terrible launch and steam still refuses to do refunds even when u try to explain all the issues ot them in a lenghty conversation like this one, u still get standard replies and support staff doesn't read your sentences the way you have written them. When I write: my first 20 hours of "gametime" were me sitting in main menu trying to login to a server. They read: you played 20 hours and thus Steam will not refund you after this much gametime. Now we all knew steam support can also be a pain in the ass sometimes, now we have to deal with Atlas dev team and Steam Support simultaniously. For those who gonna be trolls and say why u still play when u wanted refund and can only complain about it? Because I got robbed of my 25$ while Steam refuses to refund the damn thing due to timer things I felt obligated to play and see if I can still get fun out of it after each update and patch, as most of you trolls claim it's EA and (might/will) get better. Well it doesn't, they break the experience for most of us with each update they roll out or roll back. I would also like to ask my fellow pirates who have had enough of this idiotic way things are going to just spam Jat and Atlas tweets as soon as they pop up with youtube videos of griefers, cheaters, bugs, glitches, anything that shows what a poor product this is to make sure they aren't fooling other people into buying this game until it might actually be playable. Please don't hesitate to even copy past my entire post here to spread the message on reddit, other forums or just in here in case mods think this should be deleted, as I have read from several users on this forum that posts about their incompetence get deleted sometimes. Good luck to all of those who are still trying to play the game after all these things that happened, but for me it was over a few days ago, I'm done grinding to establish a little base and some boats on my own, I know it's not of solo players, but if u started this game with 5 friends and end up alone after a few days into the game u don't feel like joining a big company just yet, u try to build up a base and boat to show your friends and hope they want to play on from that part since they could skip the grindy part, but nope, it's so bad that they refuse to play it any longer and me myself have jumped ship and joined their boat, not playing boat. I will keep being a pest to this company until A: this game is a proper playable game (don't count on it). B: they refund this game to me (depending on steam here). As long as I feel like being ripped off, I'll be ripping on these nitwits as well. This is what I picture how the game Atlas itself feels like if it were alive:

The Fountain of Youth is a fucking joke.... why make it so damn difficult to get to, you pretty much have to have a lot of people in your crew and you all go there at the same time, well guess what me and my buddy have a life and we are the only 2 in our crew because we don't have time to manage a big ass crew, so we can't even do it with just us because there are so many damn creatures that kill you.

as title , boring system

GAME DYING, CONCEPT LACKS BC OF THE NOLIFERS 5 layer stone gate was broken through in 15 mins. We were sleepin for 8 hours bc we need to go work. And we must go to work or study or have shower, eat something, tidy up the house ... etc. Full of usually things what a human does. Two month of hard work gone in a couple of mins, bc the concept what brought from ark is a crap. This game is for nolifers. Its not a cry its just some kind of a review, this game worth nothing to invest, neither your precious time!

They are outright and openly cheating and been reported multiple times. My best suggestion would be try to save some this on video and get out to as many public sources as possible such as pcgamer or the like. It would make for a great story for them if you could get proof. it is quite obvious that there is some relationship between them and the actual game devs or they would have been banned long ago. Your not playing a fair game my friend. Sad but true.

I mean your kids will probably die to the extreme heat and cold like baby tames. But the FoY itself isn't broken it was just released prematurely. I managed to do FoY in about 2 hours. Did I find it enjoyable? Not really but it beats having the debuff had I not managed to complete it I would of just lived with it until they expanded on it. I wouldn't quit over it. The stone issue is far more of a frustration to me.

1. Stone structure Please revert you made them easier to break through no reason for added materials. 2. Animal Collision/ Effecting taming Why are my tames falling through the earth, stone floors, wood roofs, every thing in the game? This seems to have been issue even in ark how is this not fixed? Because of animals colliding into structure and the ground itself they're very difficult if not impossible to tame (elephants). 3. PVE ships getting sunk by players Why is this still not resolved? Players are holding a ridiculous amount of items hanging on ladders and sinking ships. Why are players allowed to whistle down my ladders? Why are they able to grapple on to PVE boats with all this weight? Players are dragging ship of the damned into ports and sinking ships. Why is there not a invisible bubble around islands that instantly makes the SotD unaggro? 4. Permanent sleepers who haven't logged in for a month On my island alone probably 1/4 of it cannot be claimed because of permanent sleepers. Can there please be a timer I don't even care if its a month but these people need to decay somehow. The pve ship sinking thing scares me the most. Being a two man company I don't want to risk sailing from island to island and explore the atlas. Just to have someone come over and sink my boat for fun, its why i'm playing pve. If I wanted another player other then me to sink my ship I would play pvp. I would think that would be game breaking enough to do something. Anyways enough rambling if I missed anything else please add it below.

All animals suck. Rhinos suck, bears, suck but less so because of land plants, ele suck. Didn't try giraffe but I hear it's about bull level, and bull sucks.

All pipelines seem to be plugged atm.

OH... I forgot to mention. I'd like to suggest an experiment to you. I want you to start a new character. Hop on your little raft and come to the tundra. And when you finally find a place to settle down, start building. But don't build with stone because there's no paste. Which is a good thing because on your island, there's no metal either and everything you get from rocks is going to go to repairing your tools. You can just use wood. Tomorrow when you log in and a wolf has chewed it's way through your wooden walls and floors, eaten you, your bed and the chicken you tamed... you can just jump back to that freeport and dream about taming a bear.

Ah, let's see... the nearest freeport to me is 2 grids away. Nice. In a tundra. Oh snap... no paste. Oh I see... half way across the map. Got it. You are absolutely correct. Let me tell you what isn't outside my front door. Saps Honey, Gum, Nectar, Sugars, Sugar Cane, Syrup Group Usable Resources Coal Anthracite, Graphite, Lignite, Nitre, Peat, Sulfur Metal Cobalt, Copper, Iridium, Iron, Silver, Tin Crystal 20x20px Amethyst, Calcite, Herkimer, Pearl, Quartz, Tellurite Gem Diamond, Emerald, 20x20px Garnet, Opal, Ruby, Sunstone Salt Flake Salt, Iodine, Kala Namak, Pink Salt, 20x20px Rock Salt, Sea Salt Group Usable Resources Coral Brain Coral, Fire Coral Group Consumable Vitamin A Aloe, Basil, Beans, Beet, Carrot, Celery, Chamomile, Chili, Cilantro, Coconut, 20x20px Egg, Garlic, Maize, Mint, Oregano, Parsley, Poppy, Potato, Rice, Thyme, Turmeric, Turnip, Wheatgrass, Wild Onion, Wild Pepper Do you get the picture? I have trees. I have rocks. I have berries out the ass and a miniscule amount of cotton. I have no tradable RESOURCE on my island. Since I have nothing to trade for paste or metals, the grind just became worse by a factor of 10, because now, I'm going to not only have to grind the basics on my island (of which fiber is damn near non-existent), now I'm going to have to sail somewhere and grind there too. And let's not forget that I'm going to have to *GASP* play the SotD/Whale/Hurricane obstacle course game the entire way. MEANWHILE... all you sun loving bastards in the tropics have all the materials to build... wait for it... right outside your front door. Come to the tundra and try to survive before you come up with some asinine 'gid gud' post.

Should be less of both. There is one island in our grid with metal, and it has about 6 nodes. It’s actually stupid.

As title says. All tames were inside a full stone base with all stone floors and double walls 2 foundations apart. Snake spawned inside base and killed all tames. But, I'm glad snakes don't get stuck on bamboo anymore, or walls.

Cobras are the most s**t animal in the game. These glitchy mother f**kers go through walls, have insanely janky hitboxes, and routinely cause a s**tty time. They also exist where it regularly gets to -19 C...how the f**k? All the animals in this game are awful, but consistently losing tames to cobras/alpha cobras makes people log out and not want to come back. Before anyone tells me to “git gud”...the pen in which they slaughtered a giraffe most recently was built over the water (on pillars), accessible only via ramp, and locked tight with walls placed over the opening.

Everyone is having problems with Asian players. They are toxic, talk only between them and generally he shares nothing with other players apart from rotting our experience. Do you plan to react? Asiat server, ban IP Asian? do nothing and let the whole community go? Add to this all the bugs allowing to sink boats in PVE, weight, blocking, damned keeting. Shit ! what are you doing ?

17 out of your top 20 are lawless. People like these and changing and messing with them effects the game population 10x more than claim system changes. Just wanted to give people a heads up before they continue asking for Lawless to be scrapped and turned into wasteland claimed island. We have a great community on our lawless island and I dont want to see it destroyed. And yes there is tons of room for new people to come and build. Used battle metrics and sorted by current active players.

Logged on to this. Nevermind the fact that these guys were on a raised stone holding pen, and there's no way a cobra should have been able to get in there, it's ridiculous that one alpha could take 2 bears, 2 wolves, a bull, an elephant, and a rhino. Took me weeks to get all those tames, and they are just gone overnight and there's nothing I could have done about it. Crap like this makes me want to put down this game and never touch it again.

We're at a point now where the devs are clinging onto a mechanic that much disdain has been expressed toward. They are seemingly determined to twist and malform their game to fit this needless mechanic in the game. It is the reason FOY is seen as such a problem. It is the reason there has been such an uproar over the debuff. It takes away cosmetic options in the game by making your character look either too young, or too old relative to what you might ideally want. AND it might take away your character, forcing you to replace them over and over. All these different groups of people are annoyed by this mechanic. Would the FOY be such an issue if people did not feel their character was being held hostage? The frustration from the FOY really comes from the stakes; the reason people pursue the fountain in the first place.. It might actually be an enjoyable challenge if it felt more optional. All issues people have with the age mechanic come to a head when participating in the FOY quest. -People afraid of losing their characters -People wanting to be free of the debuff -People pursuing cosmetics -People who have lives outside of the game All of these people just get annoyed by this ridiculous quest, which on the surface seems like it is the problem. In reality? It is the reason you have to pursue this quest that is the real issue. The age mechanic only takes away; it doesn't put in... In the end, it is just a bump map that progresses over a short period of time, with a debuff on the final 10 years. We don't need it, we don't want it; please stop ruining your game by trying to crowbar it in whichever way you can.

I just see the moon

I had this same idea and tried it, but this glitchy ass game, the tames would fall through the sloped door sections and glitch out and couldn't make it up the ramp. I also tried an elevator, but the animals also tend to glitch through it too and still get eaten. And elephants can't quite fit on the largest elevator platform, even though elephants are only 2 tiles wide. Sometimes you can make them fit but it's a giant pain in the ass. Basically, every preventive measure I've thought of doesn't work because the game is so damn glitchy. Nothing works right, not consistently anyway.

They just removed the Elephants from K3, they should probably do the same to Cobras since it doesn't make sense to have cold blooded creatures in areas that rarely get above freezing. Some of their choices about where animals are seem to be a poor attempt to add diversity of fauna to each grid. I think they need to add more animal types to the game and tone down the spawn rate of predators as well as fix the janky animations of some creatures.

Id settle for either, but after years of janky ass titanoboa in Ark, I’m not confident. If you can’t implement a creature that works properly and serves a purpose...maybe don’t implement it? And if you refuse to fix or remove it, at least asign it to zones that you’d find a snake in... For that matter, fix the babies dying of temperature extremes in their natural habitats. Between the infant mortality rate, the predators, the alphas, and the AoD; how the hell is this whole world not just a desolate wasteland? The last snake should have starved to death hundreds of years ago...

I have to say the other day I was so dam mad at Chinese companies but then I remember the lovely Chinese gentleman who on our other island made the effort to communicate with me. It stops me from branding all Chinese companies the same. For me I was peaceable untill 3 or 4 different Chinese companies came in and sunk our ships on 3 different occasions for no reason. Attack us and tried to land grab. They just want war and this is on a Pve server. Many around me are over it and it dosn't paint the Chinese community in a good light and makes the bad over weigh the good that some in the Chinese community are doing. I just want to play the game, chill and relax and I dont care what nationality or language you speak but I dont want Chinese companies come in be so toxic that it causes so many to leave and lose the incredible long hours of work some put into their ships, bases and tames.

They should stop with weight reduction alltogether in ATLAS, it's not Ark, but they could definitely make the cargo carriage a weight increase... Increasing the total weight the bear can carry or invent something else, like give the cart a weight limit and make the bear just able to move it as long as the cart is within its own limit... With no weight reduction needed, if you put both in a ship then the ship gets to carry the actual total weight of cart and bear... Very simple, no exploit, no exceeding ship weight limit.

They could do away with that buff and give us oars.

Wait for the Tek-engrams...

The issue is the more it can be destroyed too easily. 40 Mins to farm a base but it takes 10 Mins for someone to farm the mats to destroy that base. Too unbalanced

And why do we age so fast ?! Its ridiculous. If you are going to put in ageing make it feel like we are getting a life time out of it. My character is 75 years old and has been in existence for about 3 years in game time. Edit: I know re-spawning ages you, my mate has overtaken me despite starting after me and is now 100. It heavily penalises new players learning the mechanics and forces them into end game content if they want to avoid their debuff WAY too early.

FOY concept is so broken and not sure anyone really wants to raise kids.

like beds where you can level the number of guns.

That I definitely agree with.

I will go first and list my questions then tips: Things are tough at first, you will die a lot. Things get a LOT easier as you progress. Questions: How do I change the emote on F2 from dance to something else? How do I whistle and not have ALL the tames come to me just one? What does the slightly off color in the vitamin bar mean? Does more attack on tames and metal tools yield more mats per swing? If so how much? Do tame beginning levels matter? If so how so? Tips: Inventory: You can single click to move a single item back and forth. Shift click and it moves 5 at a time. Shift + T half of the stack. T moves the whole stack. There is a Transfer all arrow to the left and right along the side of the screen as well. Resource Boxes allow things to stack to 500k, nice to use to avoid clutter and store mass amounts. Food Storage: Food rots (decays) naturally in minutes. Put it in a larder to extend the time by 3-5x longer. Make a preserving bag and put preserving salt in it to max it 20x longer. Pot Belly stove cooks food FAST and can make dyes. Misc: You can eat more than one food at a time. You can put each food type on your hot bar for quick access. I put my food in the same vitamin order. 5 berries or mints (vit A and C) roughly equal 5 meat or milk. Milk gives Vit D and refreshes water. Don't over eat vitamins it has bad effects. The skill which reduces vitamin loss is nice for QOL. Tame a cow, put a bucket on your hotbar, walk up to cow press E, 30 milk roughly. Build a stone reservoir (or 6) with a water pipe and water tap on the end of the pipe. Then you can run up and press E to drink fast. You can build stuff in the smithy etc and walk away, no need to watch it craft. An easy way to make paste is make 6 mortar and pestle, put them in a line on 2 tables, and load them and side step to next one. Press T to load the mats, then press A multiple times to craft more than 100 per time. Node types have very different respawn rates. You can and should bind a key to a low and high gamma. Try it for building at night. You can put wall hooks almost anywhere and put a Lantern or Torch in them. To make dye, fill a waterskin from a reservoir or water barrel, put it in a pot belly stove, along with any berries, light it, and craft dyes any color. Use the dye on Lanterns, slate is nice for self use and inside building, other colors are nice outside. You can put down a level and pin code it to the same pin code as lanterns and doors. Then you can turn off all your lights during the day to save oil. Picks get more meat from animals. Picks get sap from maple syrup trees. Hatchet gets wood from trees. Pick gets thatch from trees. Bears can get a lot of thatch from those brown leaves on the ground. Fish oil comes from mantas and fish but not sea bass (I think). Wooden ladders can be tricky to place and only climbable from one side. Stairs are made from pressing T while place a roof. Half stairs can sometimes fit where full stairs can't. Press T to cycle through different types of walls to get door ways and railings etc It takes different types of wood, metal etc to craft nicer items. Sickles help harvest fiber a lot faster. Sloops are super cheap to build so dont worry about losing it, just slap on a med speed sail and go explore. You can press tab to cycle through the different chats (global local company ally etc) You can respec once per level, use your respecs wisely to craft things you may need in the future. The respec button is next to your name when you press R. Warning there is no confirm it just does it. You can put beds on lawless land now (no need to have a raft off the shore with one now). Will add more later. When your weight bar hits the 'handle' part that is when encumbered starts, when it hits the top of that handle you move slow. Put your tames on a 2nd floor and enclosed so they are safer from attacks. Sleep on an enclosed 2nd floor to stay safe from wall hacking wolves. Ziplines require a grapple hook to be crafted and have a very long range. Try them out. Can run and jump and press E to grab it mid air for fun. Carry a backup hatchet or two, you go through them quite fast. You get back half your mats when you demo your own stuff. You can pickup stuff you place for 30 seconds, then you can only demo to remove it. You can place a floor down to replace a floor and still get the demo mats back. Place floors etc on a hotbar for easy placing. Crouch and use 1st person to help place walls and floor in tough spots. Enjoy!

Typical, Removing topics that point out how shit this game is. I'm really starting to wonder how much you get paid for gargling their shit and denouncing everyones valid problems with this steaming pile of shit they call a game. you might be happy being treated like shit as a paying customer, the majority of us however are not.... Would you be happy ordering food, have them get your order completely wrong, then when you complain that your order isn't right. Some little moron comes along telling you oh it's OK this place is new... and then the staff just ignore you when you tell them its wrong..The whole EA excuse is no longer viable... EA is not an excuse to be a piece of shit developer that has no clue what they are doing. Neither is it an excuse to tell people to stop complaining about bullshit changes made for no reason what so ever. They do everything on a whim, ignore the feedback they get. and in another 2 moths they'll ditch Atlas and come out with "ARK But its in space!!" for its next cash grab... Seriously I wouldn't even work for this company if it meant getting a foot in the door of the games industry(a difficult industry to get into, how the fuck did these guys get into it anyway?).. I would rather work at McDonalds..

Answers: 1. I Don't know 2. Default: look at target and press [ T ] to have that target follow you. 3. it is the window to get the balanced diet buff 4. yes, based on Melee rating. gains are proportional to the gain in melee. 5. yes, tames can gain as many levels as they had before they were tamed + 30. in addition higher level tames have better stats. Tips: 1. A Glider slows you down but let's you get to places you otherwise could not. the have a very shallow glide ratio. 2. When gliding press [ LEFT SHIFT ] to descend rapidly. 3. When taking off in a glider do not use [ SHIFT ] to gain speed. you will just plow into the ground. 4. You take off with the glider by pressing [ W } then double tap [ SPACE ]. 5. you use the glider by placing it in your hot-bar. it then works passively. 6. Unequip the glider by moving back into your inventory. to move at normal rates again. 7. You are slower than a Rattlesnake with the glider equipped but faster without it. 8. When running away with the glider equipped You can get a quick boost to speed and some distance by double tapping [ Space ]. 9. Carry a grapple and climbing pick. both can get you out of a tight spot. 10. Carry a poop. in case you need to suicide. 11. You can grapple company mates to move them through doors. 12. You can Glide from a shipyard to the deck of a Brig that is just at max grapple range. 13. Do not leave you ladders down on your ships. (makes you vulnerable to weight griefing). 14. You can grapple to your own ships but not the others. 15. Park ship just within grapple range to a shipyard. but not within jumping range to prevent weight griefing.

I really wish people would stop with the "its EA" bs. Look at Ark during its first month per steam charts. Ark launched in may of 2015 and rose to roughly 80k in its first month and kept those numbers for 3 months! Its ONLY been 1 month for Atlas and there has been a DECREASE by 50%!

use the RainIntervalMultiplier in GridEdito ServerCustomDatas1: RainIntervalMultiplier ServerCustomDatas2: valuehere 1 is vanilla 0.5 is 150% more rain and cyclones 1.5 is 50& less rain and cyclones But do note that this will also affect rain on land. Rain and cyclones are tied together.

@Jatheish Still need to address the openssl issue. The server launcher is looking for libcrypto.so.1.0.0 which is part of the outdated and non-recommended openssl library files. /home/steam/Atlas/Server/ShooterGame/Binaries/Linux/ShooterGameServer: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.1.0.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I have checked and validated my openssl version many times and I am running a supported version on my servers. steam@playground:~/Atlas/Server$ apt list openssl -a Listing... Done openssl/stable,now 1.1.0j-1~deb9u1 amd64 [installed] openssl/stable,stable,stable 1.1.0f-3+deb9u2 amd64 Updating the build machine to at least Ubuntu 18.1 or Debian 9.0 and installing all the security updates before the next update would be very helpful in this matter. Servers that are running older openssl versions can easily update to the current more secure builds much safer and easier then downgrading to an older openssl build. Also, fixing the save game data issue is critical because it doesn't matter if my server works if it requires a total wipe every update. I have faith and patience. You did a great job getting Ark to run great on Linux. It is still running like a champ to this day. Hopefully Atlas can get there too soon. It is a more complicated setup with the seamless travel data and connections. There are many more complications with adding in a database to track assets and travel. I time I know you can do it. I will be here when that happens.

Actually, your base is still there and so is the land the base is on. We did not take the base or the land it was on. We took the land that was available to claim except the base. If we didn't take it, someone else would have. Maybe if you would have asked us instead of spewing lies, we would have given it back like we have for other people. By the way, you were offline for more than two days. Don't call us out for playing the game the way it's designed to be played. We aren't cheating, being malicious, harassing or exploiting. You know how claims work, yet you did nothing to keep your claim. We even left your Galleon that's been under construction for weeks. The ship yard was left unlocked and the Galleon still belongs to you. We could easily destroy the ship yard and the Galleon on it, but haven't. We have not destroyed a single foundation or wall on those claims.

I pair treasure hunt with discovery.. dumb part is. I´m always maxed out in levels and you gain way way way faster exp than you can max out your level cap, so you basically waste exp on treasure hunts which annoys me a lot. But I agree.. discovery are tedious and annoying. If the islands would at least have something special to it, but they are just plain copies which are rotated a bit. Even discovery points are the same on a lot of islands with the same base layout.

1. All the land was taken. 2. Those that did get land have to grind out mats 24/7. This gets old. People just want to build. 3. PvP players are nearly impossible to retain. 4. Golden Ruins and the Fountain of Youth. 5. The guild system sucks. Everyone is soloing of in super small groups. 6. The only combat in this game is ranged. Melee is useless. This turns off a lot of players believe it or not. 7. No clear objective. These are the things I see around the internet and in discord. Streamers on launch day were their only real chance to make this game explode. Streamers have said it sucks. So it is written, so shall it be. Cause and effect. Oh ya and the fact that you need metal and paste from hell to make something the stupid creatures wont destroy or glitch thru. That was a BIG one!

And, inevitability this was going to happen... moments after voicing concern about weakened stone bases it happens. Someone placed a foundation and mortared us. I was able to capture a lovely screenshot of a mortar round on impact. ~30,000-40,000 combined damage seems high . The whole assault was a few minutes and just knocked the place over like a cardboard fort. It happens... It's a pirate war game. I'm not here to cry. My complaint is how unbalanced it is now. The effort to topple our base was very minuscule to the effort to make the base. People need to log off sometimes and sleep or work. If my ships get sunk, whatever. But, I need a workshop to rebuild. I hope they reconsider this.

Incorrect,. If I ever rebuilt I will be building a base 3x bigger in wood because it's resource cheaper due to wood and thatch and fiber availability. Just make it 3x the size for the same protection you used to get with stone. More for the server to process, but I'm not wasting my metal on walls. My bases are only going to get bigger.

Dear devs, at the moment the NPC crew is more a danger for the owner than for offline raiding trolls. Do you intend to change that and give them a meaning ? Maybe ranged weapons for them ? In Conan Exiles high level thralls are absolutely a threat for offline raiders.

WTF? Who in the world has nothing better to do than Build Rafts all f***ing day? Please fix this before it makes Waves...
