"The ultimate survival MMO"  <--- ATLAS

 

No one is forcing you to play mate, perhaps its not the game for you... or EA is not for you...

 

I hope you can find a way to enjoy Atlas though!  

Man, calling it “ultimate” is reaching pretty far.

Why can't a MMO have Survival aspects?  

Survival “aspects”? The whole thing is a survival game. The whole thing. Once again this just shows it was an ark dlc. 

You want to make a pirate mmorpg then make one. You want to make another survival game? They already made it

Could you please stop looking for reasons to do this? You’re hating just for the sake of hating and nothing else. 

 

Please leave it be. 

No, I am exercising my right to have a complaint about false advertisement. Which I have seen a lot of with this game

Because pirates weren't always fighting for their life and well-being...right?

Seriously doubt they were worried about vitamins

They calle it a pirate mmorpg year they made it more of a survival game than ark even is

who cares about vitamins. Can even drink all of the water like you can in ark.

this is way more survival genre than dayz even is

that is like calling the avengers a chick flick Jesus Christ talk about genre blending.

...and you have no clue what the heck your talking about.



   Seen and watched trees and brush respawn all around me as I sat at a campfire.

Don’t be that dumb dude. There has already been plenty of reports with whole islands that don’t have trees

Sounds like you just haven’t got the patience with a survival game. Either that or you aren’t very good 

Well that and the game sucks

On PVP Servers, how are we thinking of protecting our stuff when offline?

Parking our boats in Freeports?

I haven't seen anything about auto turrets or similar, just wonder what you guys think will be the way to protect our stuff if any?

 

Nope. Wildcard is at it again. Favoring Megas. Just expect to lose all your stuff on a consistent basis. If you don’t want that then you will realize atlas sucks and move on

This is ridiculous and should be handled asap. Stealing someone’s progress on pve with something as easy as this is a serious case. 

Well looks like we agree on something

That's not corruption, that's capitalism.

it’s unethical business practices. Wildcard is just worthless so they have to resort to dirty and under handed business. Not all business is “good” business.

on a side note now that it is widely known what they did the people that were swearing up and down that it wasn’t are now saying it was a good business decision. White knights are so pathetic

But i do think there should be something to lay claim to a ship at sea, like a ship claim flag, that does have a good contest feature in it.  I've heard there is something down in the piracy tree and if it does that then that makes sense on PVE, unless your boat is inside your claim area "safe at your dock" then it can't be stolen, but otherwise if you are out exploring and someone sneaks up on it and tries to pirate it and take it, then yes that should be a thing...very sea of thieves like..

But as to my initial post, in no way should what is occurring with land claim contesting continue...because you will never get to a galleon now that everyone is going out contesting with unlimited land claim flags.

What you want to be able to steal of players stuff In pve? Yeah very stupid

That is pretty ridiculous. Also another reason we know it was a dlc. Dinosaurs in a pirate game? That is just stupid.

This beckons another question. If we are indeed limited by grids per server, are we expected to/can we link grids together with other servers? How is this expected to work? Or will all the 'unofficial' servers by tiny 1x1 grids each?

Yeah for the most part people will only be getting 1x1. You need serious hardware to run a grid

5 hours ago, Kaliya said:

Could we get an estimate on what sorta server specs we are looking at needing to host a decent amount of grid spaces? I have a decent server laying around with:

Dual Xeon E5-2670 (2.66GHz / 3.3GHz Turbo / 16 Cores / 32 threads)

128GB DDR3 RAM

Would it be possible to host a 4x4 grid on that for say 25 players per grid square? I noticed in the example ServerGrid.json it looks like the official server host 4 servers per machine at 150 users each, could we perhaps get to know what specs those machines are running?

Yeah 4 servers is 2x2 no way you are running a 4x4

Please stop spreading nonsense, Atlas is a newer unreal engine and would never have worked. 

A large part is reused from ark what is totally fine. A lot of games do that, World of warcraft,battlefield, call of duty etc.

Don't state things if you don't know what you're talking about

Yes once they decided to make it a new game, of course they switched to the new engine. I know exactly what I am talking about

It's literally not a possible thing to release atlas as dlc. Not compatible. Its the same company and they are using stuff from ark to to make the game, thats been known for a long time. how the heck is that corruption? The toyota supra has the steering wheel from a camry, doesnt make it a camry. 

The original map was the same 4 islands they copy and pasted then rotated everything says dlc you just don’t want it to be

Ok the corruption is just worse than I thought.

turns out atlas was an ark dlc since there is an ark menu in the title screen. Even had a single player mode.

not just that but it really makes sense now that there are only 4 maps that have been copy and pasted then rotated. I thought that was weird but the atlas map DLC was probably going to be those 4 maps.

instead of charging a ark map price they are trying to turn it into a whole game. Totally corrupt. They even went through and did minor changes like calling “raw meat” “animal meat” 

sorry but that is just way too much corruption for me.

Then leave, please. Have a good day! 

 

Same happened with BF3 -> BF4 and I saw nobody complain. It’s a shame wildcard screwed up badly because the idea’s of their games are actually pretty good. 

Hey I actually agree with you there. What they should have done is be like song writers and just sell the good ideas they have to make money. 

The aong writers don’t sing the songs, the good singers do.

they are good at ideas but man they have been widely known for years now to be the worst dev company. Like literally the worst. In the beginning it wasn’t like that but they messed up so much even a lot of their white knights ended up hating them.

Heck, I would even go as far as to say they should be advisors for actual good dev companies. Just as long as they don’t touch any of the programming at all!

Hey guys......so going by the one piece of information that we can currently access (yay menu screen!!), let's get a read on the most and least popular biomes/freeports.

Personally I'm +1 for polar (H13 - central tundra) because it's also right next to high desert?

 

And 3....2....1.......................Thoughts??

 

The refund biome

Just now, Percieval said:

Alright so everyone knew about 2 weeks ago that this will look and feel like ARK. Then people bought it anyway.

 

in what way is it a ripoff then? 

The fact that even though they made a big map but there is really only 4 different islands that have been copy and pasted and rotated that is pretty pathetic.

since they decide to copy everything off ark they just should have made the 4 maps and multiple servers like ark

yeah ah this game is pathetic 

7 minutes ago, Percieval said:

You can look into the future mate? That’s great  

I’d rather stick to realism. 

Not looking into the future. Just realize that history repeats itself and ark has problems 3 years after their launch. Sure some got fixed but the severe problems stayed for 1 1/2 to 2 years. Don’t need to be psychic to see reality

Youre PAYING for an unfinished product. You should always expect the launch of a EA game to be complete shit technical wise and server wise. I cannot wrap my head around you folks complaining about this nonsense. God damn zoomers.

Because a lot of us are already very familiar with wildcard. Typical white knights. They aren’t just complaining because things aren’t working. The complaint is coming from them knowing that wildcard is still wildcard and the problems will continue.

you can be hopeful all you want but the people that know them, know exactly what’s going to happen. The problems will continue.

2 minutes ago, Percieval said:

No I probably won’t. 

You poor thing. Yeah you will. Wait till a year in and you still have “launch” problems 

7 hours ago, Brehon said:

Launch days have been shit days for almost every MMO styled game out there (and many others).  Its the saturation of other media outlets that make it seem worse.

A typical excuse but that’s ok, I figured some white knights would use it. Sure most launches have problems, what you don’t realize is this is wildcard and there will continue is to be these problems. 

Sure then people will use the early access excuse, but they still don’t realize that the problems will continue as well.

finally comes official release and when the problems still continue they say “come on guys it just barely got released” here is where the white knights get really pathetic because they use the same excuse 6 months after and finally one day they become us because they can finally get some common sense and realize it won’t stop and the devs simply don’t care.

so no man, it’s wildcard

You can’t take those seriously. It’s either people that don’t know how the game works, that login with 1000 other people and then say it laggs, or either just hate for the sake of hating. I’ve been following it a bit and maybe 80% of them can’t be taken seriously. If you make a negative review, then tell us why instead of go full ignorant cry mode. 

Don’t worry, you will join them shortly. Wildcard has a way about them

Well, if you´d take a closer look at said reviews. most of them are people with... VERY bad grammar, crying about that they can´t download or play.

sooo.. i´d say.. F*ck ´em ^^
Let´s just take a few days so servers can calm down and THEN you should build yer´ opinion, not  the other way around.

You must not k ow wildcard. If not you can have a pass. Don’t worry the problems will continue. This isn’t a server problem or a launch problem, this is a dev problem. You’ll see

I'm not white knighting at all. I'm fully aware there are problems, and I'm not saying they're not problems and that the company is perfect. I'm simply saying you're complaining about an issue we all know about. Nor did I say that you didn't have a right to be here, and no, you are not more important to me. That's simply a stuck up, cocky attitude you have for no reason. If you'd listen to what I'm saying, you'd realize all we can do is sit and wait for fixes to come, and complaining will do absolutely nothing except vent your own frustrations, which to be frank, none of us care about. We are all going through the same things. 

Well that is was venting is for. If you don’t want to don’t want you you don’t have to. I choose to
