Beside the great literature Lord of the Flys, I also like to use the Walking Dead as an example.

How to change owner of company? What happens if owner leaves?
Lynx replied to Pindrought's topic in General Discussion
Maybe only to admin level. -
How to change owner of company? What happens if owner leaves?
Lynx replied to Pindrought's topic in General Discussion
Afaik the owner/admin has to willingly promote someone else. If they just leave, nothing you can do. -
This is exactly how Ark was managed or mis-managed. Whole tribes were either dev wiped or banned. Atlas needs better game mechanics. Otherwise leaving it in the hands of the players just turns it into Lord of the Flys.
-
Relying on human nature instead of game mechanics isn't the best idea for the longevity of the game. Look at games like Wurm Online. It has amazing systems for internal guild permissions and land claim. Very human/player run servers, but NEEDED game mechanics in play to facilitate.

Global chat is only for one grid, not the entire server. The Devs should have added MMO type communication systems. Better chat, private messages, mail boxes for offiline messages for the various timezones.
-
There is always unofficial servers. If they don't use the official banned list. Submit a ticket. That's all you can really do.
-
The OP asked about people joining tribes/companies with the intention of getting them banned. This is insiding. There is more to insiding than just this one part.
-
That's called insiding. And it's an established strategy.

Region Lock Servers and open new region servers (RU,AS,OCE)
Lynx replied to Xenara's topic in General Discussion
If the devs are going for a multicultural Multilanguage game, why are there no game systems for trading? No auction house (either distributed across all Freeports or localized forcing travel)? This was described as Ark meets Eve Online, which is a joke. Since the devs didn't bother adding any real MMO game systems. Chat (copy and paste from Ark) company (copy and paste from Ark)- same issues and flaws Trading system....umm throwing stuff on the ground. -
Robot that presses keys for you? Allowed or not? Making your children farm resources, allowed or not?
-
This was completely predictable. WC/GS repeating history. They haven't figured out the concept of limits. Stat caps. Etc. Also, PvE is a joke. (Ark or Atlas) it's not a real mode just an afterthought (cash grab)
-
Blind devotion to anything is bad (the white knights). There should be constructive criticism. Not personal attacks. This is supported to be an MMO which means it should be balanced and appeal to a wide demographic of players. At this point it simply dosen't. (Evidence for my statement is WOW getting so big cause it appealed to gamers and non-gamers)

I am not even asking for a Single player mode (client is the server). Just LAN only support. Server running on either same or separate PC and connect directly over LAN. I bought and refunded the game, cause my isp blocks the ability to run the kind of server required by Atlas. I was told by others in this community that mobile isp don't support NAT Loopback. I can easily run Ark directly over LAN. Now a real SP mode would be great and easier, but not really required if the devs provide LAN support with clear instructions.
-
Did they add LAN server support to easily test mods? Or do you still need NAT loopback to get a server to work, which isn't possible on my mobile isp.
-
This is exactly the game mechanic perfect for the upcoming cash shop.

Thanks again for no region locks
Lynx replied to FountainOfScrewUsRight's topic in General Discussion
I don't get the number of people buying Atlas thinking it will be different from Ark, in terms of server (mis)management, bad decisions, anarchy/exploits/etc, and a non-support support ticket system. -
Thanks again for no region locks
Lynx replied to FountainOfScrewUsRight's topic in General Discussion
While an IP region lock can easily be circumvented with a VPN. A ping based region lock would be effective. You just now realizing this? -
Ship sinking shouldn't be part of PvE.

Has no one learned from Ark?
-
Until the devs fix game mechanics, nothing will change. Look at Ark, it got released with major bugs that never got fixed during EA. WC/GS same main devs, just a fact. Ark/Atlas same spaghetti base code.
