Whats wrong about Tarot?  Using Cards for Fortune telling was a common thing back then.

It's funny though a few of us have asked for an airship which was in the original version of atlas, and people say it isn't pyraty and we should keep this game authentic. Then we get a submarine, torpedoes, giant crabs, and now magic! So could anyone please explain again why we shouldn't have an airship?

If you remember back when, there was someone at the beginning of the tarot release that was saying it was exploitation of the Romany race. Didn’t really care too much then or now, but.... I can see how some religious groups, Christian/catholic that would have a problem with it.

if someone actually has a pure faith(most don’t, like almost everyone) certain things can deter them from getting a game especially if it has to deal with any kind of occult style content.

gypsies were persecuted for their way because a lot of religions saw it as evil. So yeah, it is no big deal to me but I can completely see where he is coming from.

i know a few friends that won’t by Wolfenstein for obvious reasons. Just saying

I cannot tame elephant at all

i tried to use a normal wall trap, but cannot feed the elephant even i see the (Feed Wheat to Tame), keep pressing E, nothing happen

using a pillar trap, also does not work

using billboard trap, i did manage to get to feed it, but need to feed from the inside, and the elephant hit box are so big, you will get hit everytime you get close to it.

they need to fix this issue

Some of the elephants are just broken. It is happening to me as well. Get the feed text in blue to press Y but when you press why it just doesn’t work.

they should probably fix it soon.

It is not a 'Play Anywhere' title in the Microsoft Store though and so he will not be able to install it on his PC after buying it for Xbox unless he purchases the Steam version.

I have not heard anything about it coming to the Microsoft PC store, nor of it becoming a play anywhere game Wilhelm.

Ah, he used the tag game share so I assumed that they had two consoles and a pc but he couldn’t get it on both consoles so he had to try it on the pc.

I was really hoping this would be similar to ARK where when I bought it my wife could play with me through our Family Account Share. Every cross platform (Xbox, PC) i have she can download and play except this one. When she saw me playing it she jumped at me to install it on my gaming PC for her to play with myself and our group of friends. Yet I cant, the only Microsoft Store version available is the Xbox One version. Will this be available through Microsoft Store for PC at a later time or is it always just gonna be on Steam?

You can definitely do game share with atlas. My buddy and I are doing it as well as two others that are doing game share.

it is possible. I am not sure why it isn’t letting you. I would contact Microsoft because it does work with game share

nope you can heal yourself and you can heal others around you, just not sure why it stopped working.

Must be a bug because I can heal other and others can heal me.

You can’t heal yourself. Some one needs to heal you

if its just resources that players need then i would recommend https://exploreatlas.co.uk/ regular updates , tamng calculators etc really good site, 

 

See, this is a pretty cool reply and thanks for that. I am sure he didn’t mean so he so demanding as well. But when you really look at it most games have a pretty good wiki with them. Even ark does which I used a lot when I was new to ark and want to look up the exact Dimensions of lets say the industrial forge so I didn’t misplace it and end up making a big and expensive mistake.

the wiki isn’t there for lazy people but rather people that just need to look up something they might not remember really quick. It is pretty important when it comes to things like that or other stuff as well. That is pretty much why most games have them and a lot more informative than the atlas wiki.

then people want to complain when we come on here and ask lol blows my mind

5 hours ago, Percieval said:

No, I think it’s because PC players that already know the game and don’t need a wiki in any way. Don’t be lazy and update it yourself or don’t come in here asking it at all. 

Nope. I’ll be coming here plenty. You were the one telling me that things were easily looked up which they are not. If you don’t want to add to the wiki so I can look it up I will be here asking any time I have a question lol.

almost all games have a good wiki to go off of, atlas does not. That speaks more about the playerbase than it does the game or the developers

here's a crazy idea , why don't you add things that you find/discover as well , updating the wiki is voluntary and open for any anyone to do .... sorry for the abrasive reply but demanding others update the wiki so you don't have to go explore or find out for yourself comes off as a little lazy , go explore have fun find things out for yourself , which is kind of the point of survival exploration games 

Yeah you are right. The pc players have been completely lazy as far as that goes so I guess it is up to Xbox players to save the wiki as well as the game. pathetic 

And yeah not sorry for the abrasive yet well deserved reply. You guys should be doing better in reality lol

How i see it man is that ATLAS is a game where the devs put so much work into making you feel like an actual pirate. So in those terms my tribe is never scared to use them.

Nope. They put a lot of work into making things easier for Megas lol 

28 minutes ago, Magicblue said:

Can people please start updating the wiki? It should be the one stop shop for new players or people going solo to find info on all the little details on this game.

Yeah it is definitely not easy to google anything with this game.  That is usually why I just ask here. Nowhere near enough detail

and that my friend is why i spent all my 700 hrs of atlas in a lawless desert, aside from what you mentioned the plus side is that they are underated so people barely considers settling there, i had all the tin veins the island could respwan located and "owned" xD (grinded, not walled, thats for dickheads) and the low tree density makes unexpected encounters a rare occurence when wandering around, also there is lots of fibers.

why so happy about the salt tho?? i barely ever touched it, and i shall suggest you to pick a mid-high elevated location walling with a big rock mountain (remember lions and wolfs spawn on the sky...because... YOLO) if you already have a bear you might even want to build your base at the very top of one, if you choose it wisely it will keep your tame safe from wild animales and smart design will prevent them from clipping trough the fundations.

I just leave my fighting tames in the open on neutral. Multiple bears as well as tigers and lions. Even the alphas doesn’t pretty quick when they are stupid enough to attack. I definitely keep the cows in a guarded place and the chickens inside the base itself, but many a wild animal has died to the hands of my tigers. I don’t worry about leaving them out. Predators have to be predators after all.

i use salt all the time. At either base or even on our ships I have a total of 8 bags, 2 for each vitamin(yeah I am doing the vitamin thing). I keep all of them completely full at all times with at least 500 preserving salt in each one. I was the guy that never let one slot of a generator go empty from gas on ark. Always had to be completely full.

We Used to own the North west Island in H9 before the wipe. Had player shops there Selling everything Needed for the Kraken. Fight

Sounds like a good plan to me then

I like the Basic idea behind EA. It offers Smaller companys  to earn Money for further Development And Needed Feedback from the playerbase, while on the Other Hand let Players buy it for less Money And also be Part of the development. 

Yeah that is the curtain. There is always something behind the curtain. EA used to be that. It is definitely not even close to that anymore

I miss the good old Times where you saw a small Trailer or Clip And just bought it because it Looks cool. Nowadays it seems like People study the Game 6 month before the Release And watch streams to know everything about a Game before buying.

Those were the days before EA. I also miss the good old times lol even though I am liking atlas I still do not like the idea of EA in general though.

The feed spot for me is at its belly between the front and back legs. Have tamed 3 elephants so far this "season" without any issues. Does the feed option just not even appear? Sometimes it will appear in red, but you can still feed if you hit the key.

No that is the weird thing, it is blue like normal but when I press Y is just doesn’t eat. Totally weird.

Elephants are a bit bugged on Xbox right now. Come to M4, big island, south bay. Ill give you my shitty one lol.

 

To be ho eat if this crap keeps happening I might take you up on that offer lol.

was he at least a level 5 when you tamed him?

Personally I like the whole taming thing. I snucked behind my little kitty cat for 20 minutes through the sand to capture her. Now Miss Scrumptiousness and I sail the high seas as fearsome pirates. Look out baddies cuz nothing can resist a little kitty with a hat on her head.

Believe me I like the taming as well. The damn elephant just won’t eat even behind the ear or by his eye. Only the elephant.

The elephant is broken for me right now. I have the blue press y to tame but when I press y it doesn’t feed him. Tried multiple locations around his body.

haven't tried his butt yet And I am pretty sure he would appreciate that but I guess it’s worth a try.

all other animals have worked easily but I just can’t feed the damn elephant. Tried multiple elephants as well

I just started the game and was told that you could have children to make heirs. I could not find any information about this other than it being talked about in December. Is it in the game? If so how do you create the heirs/children? 

Best guess would be phase 4 which will probably be late next year. Nothing wrong with that though since they are trying to fox the game in phase 1

So... My sloop randomly sank after the tinyest bump from my friends sloop. 

Attempted a server rollback to recover it..... Wish I had just built a new one now because the roll back wiped the server it seems eugh 

That'll teach me to try and avoid the grind lol

Wait, are you on unofficial? It’s cool and all but that grants ultimate control(which is good).  In that case why was that a bad thing?

Nothing wrong with being able to erase the past. I am sure most would like that

I caught flying bears and sailors in the ocean!
I plugged holes from disappearing structures in the floor of my home base!
I crashed into the void of the ocean in the north, losing the front planks of the ship!
In the atlas, everything is as usual, bugs have not been fixed for almost a year, sales are more important ...

What is not usual is that my buddies,  that i Have known and got along with for a long time finally started talking to me on a political level. It’s amazing the differences that we have. I am neither right of left but either way I always end up arguing with either one because no matter what side you are on you are wrong lol.so basically it is the twilight zone right now. Very unfortunate smh.

Jesus Christ I told my buddy to go to bed. The game has been out for what? 8 days. Technically less because of the late launch and this guy already has 6 days 14 hours of play time

my work has made it to where I only have 2 days 14 hours. Yeah time to get some sleep though. 2 am where I am at. Got two days off of full game play though starting when I wake up. Let’s do this.

We got our galleon up in a day with 3 of us grinding. Still altering decks for tames and such but after buying our first island today the “jawbreaker” will need to wait a few more days to be sailing.

Its called jaw breaker Because our first ship was called lollipop smh that was my buddies and idea and yes he is old lmao.

if anyone gets the reference kudos to you lol

I thought we were going to get stuck with polar but sure enough we found a 46 pointer that is awesome. Can’t believe nobody scooped it up. It has a huge bay that is very deep all the way up to shore and the scenery is awesome.

at first when we noticed it was low desert we were bummed a little and wondered why nobody took it already, then we noticed all the resources and tames that were ok it and thought people must have been crazy not to take it.

3 different kinds of vegetables, 3 fruits, metal, Crystal, coal, SALT(thank god).

dont get me started on the tames. Every tame besides a bear and a giraffe and a penguin of course spawn here. Elephants, rhinos, lions, wolves, that olphend thing, scorpions, crocs all of the other little tames.

the beaches are pretty flat and the top of the stone enclaves are flat as well. This is going to be an awesome place. Haven’t found a gem yet but I haven’t been through the entire island yet either. Rubies and opals are right next to our lawless area so they won’t be too much of a problem.

things are looking up. We have multiple biomes just a couple grids away so that will be helpful.

i have a feeling the kraken is H8 right above us right?

Your definition of overcrowded must be very different than mine. There are many whole islands without a single claim or structure on them yet.

I think he meant all of the 15 and 20 point islands since he is solo. Luckily there are still a lot of 57 point islands available which is around the size that our company wants. Don’t want to have to bother with an 86 point island or anything with that high of an upkeep.

that poor solo guy would probably have trouble with a 57 pointer.

there are still a lot of 35 point islands in the polar as well. We almost took one until I found out we have 92 points

Or lawless. We are still on lawless until we find a good 57 pointer for us.

plenry of room on k12 grid. Just saying if anyone wants
