Hello Everyone, I think the goal of this was to test to see if the API is a functional solution. They have been getting burnt a lot from implementing things massively and then finding a detrimental flaw that results in 4 hours of pissed off people. The 5.3 patched servers are having issues. Many of the servers keep having to be rolled back every 30 minutes, and players keep losing their progress. The massive ocean drop spawns are also an issue and the oceans are literally starting to get filled with islands made of corpses. Not sure how much of a priority the ocean spawns are right now. As even with the API update of 5.3, many freeport servers are still unavailable. The launch has been a disaster, but I still feel that if they can get things sorted out within a week they are doing a good job. This game combines the foundation of ARK with many of the features and concepts found in other games that players have long desired. The Hive system of servers is, for the most part, unique and is bound to have some major issues. I feel it would have been better for them to have started this with a limited BETA test instead, but now its time to deal with what they have and what they got. I have a good suspicion the Atlas team is burning the midnight oil and on overdrive right now as they all scramble to try and get a stable network. I hope everyone takes into account that tomorrow is Christmas Eve and that even DEVs of a game need time off to spend with their families and friends. The game has a lot of layers, features, and functions that will make it amazing. However, for now... we need to give the DEVs time and grace. Regards, David Denmore - Used Ship Salesman

Do you desire long nights out on the salty seas? Have you found yourself shipwrecked in the same ole' routine for hours on end? At Ravenhearts used ships, skiffs, and sails we provide ships at low cost to the average consumer. All you need is a solid connection, at least one arm or leg, and a co-signer from a company with recorded credit. Bad credit? No problem, just come on down and learn about the "Indentured Service in exchange for something that doesn't float" plan. We give you a waterlogged ship, and you give us 15 of your most precious years of life as an indentured servant. All Deals are final, Ravenheart ship sales are not liable for dismemberment, connection problems, or feelings of dread and despair related to the purchase or maintenance of acquired ships.

Now lets hope they have an absurd fat mechanic like Fable 2, so I can become the fat pirate king because all I eat is pie all day.

Thanks for the tips, everyone. I love that vitamin intake is a thing.
