I would like for us to be able to have claim flags in PVE. One flag per person would be great. If you have a large company, you would have a lot of flags, a small company or single player doesn't need a ton of space. Placing a flag assures that you have some space to build without worrying about people building too close and people would not spam tons of pillars because you would only be allowed to build where you place your flag. The base of the flag could be the auto-repair structure and you would have to keep it full of resources for anything built in the flag radius so that your structures would not decay. They have still not fixed the pillar spam problems in Ark. Maybe they should think about implementing something like this in Ark. It would sure be better than what they have now.

I really like the idea of the claim flags. I look forward to hearing how the repair structures are going to work. What if we could have one claim flag per person with a nice size radius. (the current radius seems plenty big) The flag could be the resource structure and we would have to keep resources in the flag base to upkeep all structures within the radius? That would give us a nice area to build where no one else could build. If you have a huge Company, you would have a lot more flags to work with. If you have a few, you don't need as much space. The pillar problems have never been solved in Ark. Maybe they should implement this idea in Ark.

Here is the reason that there is so much confusion. https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2018/12/19/atlas-pirate-mmo-developer-interview/ Jeremy - "We also want you to die, if you reach a hundred."

Is it still true that nothing happens when you hit 100? I am 92 and am not sure if there is even a Fountain of Youth on our private server. I would be pretty bummed if I lose everything now.

I just built a new Brigantine and took my NPC, Two Legged Alex from my Schooner to the Brig. He was repairing the schooner perfectly but now my brig is not being repaired. I have everything set up just like on the schooner with resources in the resource box, he has a hammer and he is sweeping but every plank and gunport still need to be repaired. I moved Alex to be nearer the resource box, since this ship is larger but he still is not repairing after several hours. I wonder what the difference is.

The only thing that needs to be changed for the bears is the weird clunking noise they make when they run. They sound like the ark therizinos. Hahaha! I wish so much that there could be two distinct games. One game for pve and one for pvp. They are so different and should be played differently. Trying to please both worlds is almost impossible. Nerfing the bears for pvp players is just not right for those of us who play pve game style. If there is any way to keep the bears the way they are for pve, please please please don't nerf them.

I am still having cobras slither through stone walls. I sure hope that gets fixed soon. They are not climbing the walls, they are going right through them.

So it is not due to the collision setting! GOSH!! This need to be fixed ASAP!!!

I was just about to post this. I just watched one slither through my stone walls. It didn't climb up, it went right through. PLEASE FIX THIS!!!

@Jatheish As a PVE player, it is very difficult to have any fun in the game when wild snakes can move right through stone walls. We do have collision removed on our server. Would that cause that to happen? In Ark the animals are not able to move through walls if we have collision removed. Is there any way this can be fixed?

The admin, on the map we play on, added this to the settings but I am still not able to build down to the ground. Any ideas why it isn't working?

I wish there was a way to divide the game into two categories. One for pvp and one for pve.

I could not figure out why the bears in Atlas sound so weird when they run, but today, I was riding my therizino in Ark and noticed it was the same sound as the Atlas bears! Also, I wonder if you could please check the bear walking speed. They should be able to walk much faster. It is almost as if they are encumbered when they walk. The bears walk and sound so much differently in Ark. I hope you can figure out how to make the bears in Atlas as awesome as they are in Ark. Thank you for taking the time to read this.

The wolves and other creatures are just ridiculous. Who has seen a wolf or any creature just eat at a structure over and over? I know they did this in Ark but those were dinosaurs. You can run toward a building and run around the corner but the wolf will agro on the building and just sit there biting it over and over. It is just ridiculous and annoying. There is nothing good about the way we are battling the wolves and other creatures in Atlas. I do hope they fix this soon.

Are we able to connect the grill to the pipes? I tried and tried but can't figure out how.

I am thinking that no one knows the answer to this yet?

I am playing on an unofficial server. On an Ark server, the owner can apply some setting, I think that keeps our foundations from colliding with the world. Is it the same on Atlas? I am having a difficult time placing some foundations and walls and am curious if that can be changed.

Thanks for all the info on the crew. We haven't hired anyone yet but we are noticing that our ship is constantly needing repair. I didn't know that a croc or any animal would just randomly come along and start chomping. We might need to think about heading back to Freeport and hiring some help.

WOW! You guys have been very helpful. I should have said that we were trying to sail our Brigantine. It is so scary to get out on the ocean and be surrounded by Ghost Ships and have the wind staring you in the face. Hahahaha! Zig zagging will be our way of trying to get out of that situation. Thank you!

I guess my concern is that they rushed the game so much that the resources are just not actually done correctly. I know the resources can be found, there is evidence that some have found them. What I am wondering is if all the plants have actually been coded to give the correct thing. Since we are in EA, that might be the case and why we are finding weird things when we harvest things. Maybe I am just being too picky. My hope is that when we see a particular plant in the wild, we will know that plant gives us certain things. It is much more fun to search for a particular plant than to just go around pressing E, hoping for the best.

We are playing on an unofficial server. Hopefully there will be enough people to trade with. I am still confused why we get different items from different plants. I would think a parsley plant would only look like a parsley plant. Maybe this will get fixed some day?

I really have no idea how to sail a ship properly. We do pretty good if the wind is behind or from either side but when we are heading straight into the wind, we are not able to turn our sails green. What is the trick to being able to keep the ship moving if you are heading straight into the wind?

We have been to several islands now and we have not been able to find any of the taming resources. We need wheat, rushes, sugar cane, honey and maize among other things. I know you can find the items in certain regions but we are just not having any luck at all. We have found that different plants can give the same item, like parsley. The plants look different but give the same resource. Is something bugged so that the plants might not be giving the correct item? Wouldn't it be better if a certain plant that looks like parsley would give parsley, not other plants? We found these very cool things that look like they would give honey but they give sap. I am getting sap like crazy from a lot of other resources. Why do so many things give sap? Hahaha? I am just curious if others are having as much difficulty finding the taming resources.

We are loving this game. Showing off the house and all things pirate!
