I whole heartedly approve of the age mechanic. As it is now, there is no way to deal with people that quit the game and yet sleep in a claimed zone. When the age mechanic is full implemented, this could result in a monthly rollover of quit-ing players. Eventually when player breeding is brought into play, the naked run at a FoY will not be needed unless your wanting to maintain the buff. My memory is hazy, but i believe there was something similar buff wise planned for bloodlines. In any case, i am definitely in favor of the age mechanic. If i did have one minor issue, it would be to slow down aging by a small amount, maybe make it so we age at .5x-.75x the current rate Blocking access is a really bad idea for those players, as the army still spawn when your close enough to the map location. Which means the army spawns within their building. Just make it so the said army do massively increased damage against structures and this concern wont be a problem

I have an idea that could work, but not with the current floating method they are using to prevent weight griefing. I would propose to make any section of ocean that is shallow enough to anchor in a no collision zone. It would obviously need to be considered carefully, and restrictions put in place but it would solve some issues. Maybe have it so that any ship that initiates the "collision" takes free-port levels of decay. As in whoever collides with a stationary ship takes decay damage if they anchor. This would allow for temporary (a few hours) landing at a shore even if its completely surrounded by boats. Like i mentioned initially, this couldn't work with the floating measures they have in place (which i hope are temporary measures until they can do something else), but i feel it could work as the playerbase continues to grow. Thoughts?

Is it perhaps that sloop and below no longer give salvage materials?

So I'm living within an alliance members claim, what happens if they decide to stop playing. Since we can no longer contest an alliance claim (which is really good btw), do we reset the claim timer by being with in it? Or can we claim it ourself if they quit and let the timer go?

Just been through the cave on F8 to visit fountain of youth. Jumped in the water afterwards to lead some bats away, and got glitches outside the cave after landing in the water inside the cave. I was on the cliff outside, above the cave afterwards. I know there were a few teleport glitches in ark, the centre especially, this feels like that

FOY just spawned f8, 6.05am Gmt

We're you all perhaps in golden age ruin zones. If you didn't notice or hadn't been to one before, spawns were always much higher in these regions

I feel like we need another forum category, just so people can rant and we don't have to put up with every 3rd post being a complaint, no matter how verbose you make it

The contact us button at the bottom of the page?

Discord channel is confirming o14 is the new FoY

For f**k sake, the game hasn't even been in early access for a full month and your harping on about this. If your not enjoying the game, either a) tough it out and help guide its development, or b) bugger off and check back in a year or 2. They are listening to players, they cant please everyone, especially the ones that want everything served up on a silver platter. Or if this is a ploy to get views for the video, shame on you.

So not having been able to find land to claim on na pve, I had started building on a claim that allowed neutral building. I come back today to see that all my progress now belonged to someone else, that had claimed the land in the day that I had been away. How is this in anyway fair? I could understand this if it was actually my claim, but no! Even if your building on neutral land, your shit belongs to anyone that manages to take the claim from under the land owner.

It depends on whether your willing to wait the 2 years it will take to get completed doesn't it

Dropping anchor has always been a confirmed deterrent for cyclones, the issue is when they hit in deep water. If, like me, you get hit after every single border crossing, go back across and wait a few minutes for clear skies

Two questions if you don't mind. When will age and offspring become a factor, or do you not have a time frame for when they will be released? And my second question, when can we expect to see the oceanic servers up and running?

So, I have finally (FINALLY!) found a tiny little spot to claim as my own. Could someone please give me some definitive times. How long before someone can actually put down a claim flag to contest. Is it 3 days of inactivity within the claim?

I highly doubt it, would be a lot of work for a purely cosmetic effect. Considering one of the first features that people turn down for fps improvements is sky quality, it would be a huge waste of time

There is a slight chance you can use a grapple to pull it up, I know you can do it with company-mates or whatever you call people in your company

Well if you can show me a map that lets me zoom in enough to try and work out where something is I would be grateful. I see it as something similar to a tame calculator in ark. A tool to make things a little easier

Hi all, Had an interesting though earlier, not sure if its been brought up in the forums before. Anyone with technical skills/knowledge: how difficult would it be to create an online/downloadable database of treasure maps, that can then use an uploaded image to rotate and locate a treasure site? For example, an app perhaps or even a website. You could get a map of each tile, and then use some sort of recognition program/algorithm/i-really-dont-know to locate your treasure site. Would it be doable? Thanks in advance

Sap comes in many forms, the one i am most familiar with is Syrup, which can be harvested from trees with orange-ish leaves, not red. The below link may be helpful for you and your friend.

Hi all, I am in a solo tribe at the moment, having not found anyone that wants to join up, or i don't trust those that do. If i join an alliance with others, what can we do together? In Ark the only real benefit was building within their radius, and sharing troughs etc. Does the alliance system allow anything else in pve in atlas? Can we adventure on their ships with them, and manage sails/fire cannons with them? Thanks

It's the sky effects slider at the top in the middle of settings. It need to be atleast 30-40% before you will see anything other than black A game reset will be needed before you see any change aswell

Was your shipyard built in semi shallow water? They can occasionally allow placement in areas too shallow to launch a boat, maybe look before you start the build. Or perhaps you had put too much weight on it

Possibly for repairs, or just roleplaying
