This is so great to see. I really do get tired of the Negative Nancys being so vocal. I am very glad to hear positive!

Oh my goodness! The kitty is just adorable!

We made a video to tour our Pink Pirate Castle.

Pirates like pretty things, too!

The stone is super loud, too. Chop down a tree and then hit on a rock. It is amazing the difference. Also, I think it is the food trough that is the most loud of the structures when you access the inventory. I am not sure if that has been fixed or not.

I feel like if no collision caused a problem, we would have heard about it by now. It might have been a problem at the beginning of Atlas but I wonder if the problem has been fixed now.

I am wondering if anyone knows the answer.

The admin on our server is hesitant about allowing collision on our pve/pvp server because he understands that there can be problems on the pvp side? Does anyone know any official word on the subject? We are not able to use the fence foundations because big holes are at the bottom the fence. That is besides all the other collision problems. I sure would like to be able to build a nice fence on our unofficial server but if it is causing problems, I guess I will have to make do.

Thanks to these guys we were able to do our first power stone! WHOOT!!

Thor's Hammer has to be one of the best servers out there. You are able to do all the quests and there is an amazing friendly community that won't hesitate to help at any time.

WOW! You guys are working so hard! I am very impressed! My wish for the Easter Bunny is to fix the paints so they show up better on structures. Happy Easter everyone!

We have one cold tundra grid where we are unable to climb some ship ladders. It only happens in one grid. I am on unofficial. It started happening after the update and our admin added in a few of the new eastern tundra islands.

The problem is collision. If you are playing on an unofficial, the admin can set it so you don't have the problem. It is just awful what we have to deal with in building in this game. It drives me crazy!

Yay! They are going to give us a pve test server after all! Thank goodness!

There is no way you can test how pve people are going to play on a pvp server. Well, I guess you can but you will be testing it on the wrong type of people. The whole idea of pve is people versus environment. The way they have set up the pve servers is exactly why so many pve people are upset. We don't want to play pvp style.

Well, so much for the theory of pve being able to be tested on the PTR. This is a statement from Dollie on Discord. DollieToday at 6:58 PM We haven't stated that all three modes will be on this PTR. I'm not sure where that started haha In response to what is being tested. Almost 100% it's going to be colonies only on the PTR....no Empires or PVE

We won't be able to really test out pve during the PTR. It will not show what happens when island owners leave after a month or two months or six months. We won't be able to test those things out. What does happen after an island owner decides not to play any more? What happens to those poor people who find out about the game in six months and come in game and they are unable to find an island that is not populated? Being able to 'own' an entire island is not a good idea at all. We really should only be able to own a small claimable piece of an island, not the whole thing.

I am hoping more people will vote now that the time for the wipe is getting closer.

So the way we think it works now, Joe sails to an island that is uninhabited. He sets down a bank and at that point, the whole entire island belongs to Joe. Sally comes along and can't find anywhere else to build so decides to build on Joe's island. Anything Sally builds can be demolished by Joe? It is in Joe's favor to leave Sally alone and allow her to build because he will make money on everything she does but what happens if Joe wakes up in a bad mood one day? Most of Sally's home, animals and pens have surpassed the demolish timer but some things are newly built, including the big mega gate at the pen entrance. Joe takes his big giant hammer and demolishes that gate allowing tigers and cobras to kill every animal that Sally has tamed. Could that possibly happen? I really hope the PTR can clear up a lot of this for us. Right now, I am not thinking that they have actually thought this out. After playing Ark for so long, I have so many negative scenarios running through my head on how this could all go wrong. I just hope we don't actually know how it will work and they have figured out a much better way for us to play Atlas.
