Agreed. I love the PvP server, but my problem is that Atlas is a relentless circle of build, defend, log off, lose all, log in, restart. You can only do that so many times before you start to lose interest. And I know, the solution is to join a massive company, but I'm not sure I'm into that. I just wanted to play with a few friends. Maybe private server is the way to go, but it's impossible to find one in the private server forums because nobody is actually advertising and it's just tech questions.

Spawning on M6 NA PVP without a bed bugs out in 2 of 3 spawns that I've encountered. You either: 1 - Get luck on the pennisula island which works. 2 - Spawn under the ocean far from and land masses and normally surrounded by jelly fish. 3 - Fall through the world and drop to your death ( happened repeatedly ). Cheers.

I"m ok keeping it ... but ... I'd like it nerfed a bit. Too over-impactful to the gameplay.

I thought the 30 mins was live in game ... but I've been standing on this raft for over 30 mins now and still not mine Anyone know and able to confirm?

I think they could use a nerf for sure. But the most glaring issue currently is that you can have full vitamins and then be starving ... with no way to eat or you'll kill yourself with a vitamin OD. The system can still work, it just needs to be much less impactful overall.

Yea, I posted about this earlier when I got stuck in the ground. Game absolutely needs a suicide mechanic or something to unstuck the person. You can get stuck for hours which is ridiculous.

Update ... So when I wrote the original post, I was already trying to die for about 10 mins. I'm still alive waiting to die. My vitamins are still high and my dehydration is only down to 75%. By my estimate, I need to see here and wait another half hour to a full hour or longer before I can play. This is crazy.

I spawned in Freeport today and was stuck in the ground and could not move. The lowest I could get my health was to 5 hp ... but no lower. So i've had to sit here waiting on my vitamins to deplete or die of dehydration, which is not quick. Something simple like a /stuck command would be great for this. Cheers.

Damn this is unfortunate and I feel like I'll be 'out' of the game. What a pointless feeling. So you either join a massive company or you are screwed. I feel like the claim system should be set up that there is always more land than can be claimed, which creates a bit more space, exploration, and still allows people to find and kill your bases. Man, who the hell wants to essentially restart life every time they log in? I guess it's good that you keep your level, but still. Oh well.

Hmmmmmmm. Ok, maybe I've totally missed something then. What is Freeport? I've heard it mentioned many times and just assumed it was a generic reference to whatever the closest town or city was in a starting area. That said, I also thought the Lawless regions 'were' starting areas. But I'm guessing I'm wrong about this since the more I read, it sounds like starting areas are supposed to be pvp free and somewhat friendly to new players. I spawned on a cold rock in a lawless region when I first started playing the game, and I've just been bouncing from lawless area to pvp-ravaged lawless area ever since, trying to find a reasonable island to build a life on. Am I missing some utopia like setting to get started?

Hi guys, Quick question about land bases. If I build a small base someplace, how long is it before somebody can come along and claim -steal it? I know ships are pretty fast, but I couldn't find any info on land bases. Ty if you can help.

I'm having a blast except for the respawn issue ( ie. putting you on a diff island completely ).

Right now as a fresh player, if you die, you can respawn at any island in the grid meaning you have no chance to get back to your body, items, or small base if you spawn on the wrong island. I understand this happening later in the game when you should have a bed - but early in the game it is overly punishing. Here is what happens now ( at least on my grid N9 ) . You were on a great island, but if you die you respawn relentlessly on a deserted giraffe filled island. Everybody just runs into the giraffes to kill themselves over and over and over and over again. It takes about 20-30 minutes to finally get a respawn back on the good island. And god help you if you die again quickly because you know you have to spend 20-30 minutes killing yourself again which is mind numbing. You can see everyone doing this and some ppl just asking to be killed. This is not fun game play. Here is what I'm asking: Just have us respawn on the same island. It doesn't have to be close, but on the same island if you are below a certain level or in a noob area. Please and thanks!

Yep. I just crossed a region and now my character is gone. It wants me to set up a fresh pathfinder level 1 ... c'mon man, bugs yes, resetting all a persons efforts?
