  1. Here's why they won't do that. The utter flood of people trying to log back in and get a claim will once again 'crush' their servers. That and you have entirely too many expectations. Do you think the dev's read this? The playerbase has asked them for days now to fix aggros, fix SoD's, fix claims. Have they listened? Barely. My suggestion, instead preaching to the choir, go give them yet another negative review on Steam. Even if we can't get our money back, even if we can't get them to listen to us, we CAN have an effect on their bottom line with negative reviews. The math is simple. Either they listen to what the players want or they can start looking for a new job. And trust me, if this MMO goes bust for ignoring the players, having 'Atlas' on your resume will not be desirable.
  2. Twice today... TWICE... I've tried to land on an island and take a claim. TWICE I've spent well over 30 minutes staring at a respawn screen only to be killed instantly by crocs any time I even DARED to respawn. I have waited over 5 minutes for them to disperse only to be insta-killed. How dare me want to actually play the game. The AUDACITY that I have come to expect games to be playable even in early access. Every game should be 5 seconds of game, 1 minute of staring at a respawn screen. Tell me. How the hell is this supposed to be fun? Your respawn screen looks real nice. Staring at it for 30 minutes until the crocs crush the bed on my raft is NOT FUN! I relish a challenge. Dying the instant you respawn is not a challenge, it's bullshit.
  3. This bug, whatever it was... takes the cake. I was somehow booted out of my own company. I WAS the only person in that company. I now own jack shit. My claims are not mine, my house is not mine, my sloop, schooner, raft are not mine. I went from doing ok, to nothing. This bug, whatever it was that happened... is the biggest bullshit bug I can imagine.
  4. Good luck. I had this happen to me days ago. I suggest you do what I did. Bite the bullet, make another sloop and learn. From now on, when a croc attacks you on the sloop. jump off. You... are easily replace. The sloop is not.
  5. I"m glad I took pictures. Somehow, the hand of Poseidon intervened and they repaired themselves back to normal.
  6. And THIS THING... is my Sloop sitting in the lagoon.
  7. The server for B7 crashed. When I logged back in I was unceremoniously dumped in the middle of the ocean dead and lost my tools and weapons. More importantly was what I found in my shipyard. Take note. This FRANKENSTEIN piece of shit represents over 10 hours worth of solo work. I am NOT happy.
  8. I've posted 3 now and some jackass moderator keeps deleting them. If I take the time to take screenshots and make a detailed description of the bug, have the common fucking courtesy to at least tell me WHY you keep deleting them. Now, you can delete this post too ass hole.
  9. lol, ok... so another bug. I can't edit my own posts. Rerpoducable: As servers are being redeployed, exit to main menu. Click on 'Join New Atlas'. Client crashes when new versions are listed in the server list.
  10. On my island there is no metal left. It is not respawning after 3 days. On my island there are no more rocks left. This is a result of there being no more meta l left and players mining rocks for metal. They are not respawning after 3 days either On my island the trees are rapidly vanishing. Soon, they too will be gone. These 20 odd trees cannot support the 4 groups on my island. What was once a lush, beautiful archipeligo with a fascinating terrain is quickly becoming a desolate wasteland of barren beaches and grass.
  11. PVE = Player vs ENVIRONMENT. You are describing elements where a player steals from another player which is Player vs PLAYER. But, claim theft is BS. 1 person = 1 claim. That claim should decay at a set rate. Whether it's refreshed by logging in or some form of taxation, I don't care. Taking my claim? Then why would I want to build a house, fort, shipyard, anything if it can be gone in a matter of minutes. That being said, I did try earlier to test this on some claims where the owner has never showed up. The claim stopped at 9:59 and I was unable to take their claim. I was however able to drop multiple claims, much like the one guy who owns 90% of my island.
  12. NA PVE A8 has crashed 9 times now resetting it's players back to the same spot over and over and over again. If I'd wanted to experience 'Groundhog Day' I would have bought off Bill Murray and not this game (though the price would probably be similar.)
  13. But, but... we play tested this and it seemed fine to us. - the devs.
  14. For those who read this like I did and freaked out, I decided to test this myself. Yes, you can drop multiple claims. Yes, you can own an entire island if you got there first. No, you cannot grab a claim on a PVE server like described in 10 minutes, if at all. I tested on my mostly deserted island on the PVE-NA servers and dropping a flag does say that it's contesting ownership. However, the timer stops at 9:59 and neither flag moves. I tested this on multiple claims. So while I do agree the system is completely hosed, at least someone can't just move in on a PVE server and take everything you own. It DOES however mean that if they got there first that they can place claims on all the major resources and depending on their 'dick' level, they can set up tax houses to make it almost pointless to try to get resources. Which is the case for about 90% of my island.
  15. I found ONE metal on my island. I resorted to running around whacking rocks for metal... until 8 hours later I realized that even those rocks didn't respawn. Meaning... I'll be out of metal very soon... The entire ISLAND will be out of metal. Seems rather impossible to progress in the game without it.
  16. This entire day I've spent farming to build a sloop. No, that's incorrect. I spent HALF the day farming to build a sloop. I spent the other half of the day watching crocs wipe every living thing off my island, including me DOZENS of times. I watched them crawl on my raft and dare me to come close. I watched them rip my house to shreds trying to get to me. I I watched them slam into my shipyard trying to chase a stoopid parrot. And I'm not talking one or two occasionally. I'm talking every 10 minutes 3-7 crocs were in my claim forcing me to drop everything I was attempting to do to deal with them. I got to the point that I'd stop work, strip myself naked and just run around punching crocs to death so that I could actually play the damned game. If I didn't, it became impossible to farm for resources because by the time I returned there'd be a mob of them standing outside my door. But... to have them destroy my sloop before I even had a chance to learn how to sail it??? This croc somehow managed to jump on my ship, something I couldn't even do... smash my bed, kill me and then rip the side off the hull. A LEVEL 4 CROC MIND YOU! There's a fine line between challenge and BULLSHIT! I don't mind a challenge. That... however... is complete and utter BULLSHIT! There should NOT be 50 crocs on ONE STINKING ISLAND!
  17. It's fully repaired, sails are lowered. Rotating sails won't turn the raft. I am the owner. Set my owner rank to all lvl 10. Set raft company rank to all 0. Still won't move. No anchor. Renamed raft to SS Never Sail
