LOL support? Aint no support for any opinion on this forum except for PVE... look at PVE threads compared to PVP... 3x as much... The PVP playerbase which would continue to play this game have already quit... because this forum has nothing but people like you in it... that have no experience with any game of merit. I'm just wasting time at work in hopes that maybe the devs might track these conversation and actually make some decent changes... if they don't... I don't really care... as most of us wrote the game off already.

If you read through my stuff yo would realize that I already stated this would be a necessary change to accommodate them... but keep half-ass reading.

A lot of their servers problems are because they REFUSE to put an actual server in NA... I have seen far less complaining from the EU guys because they are way closer to their server than we are.... its idiotic.

Typical liberal, taking tidbits to express an opinion.

God I dismissed everything you just wrote off that first part... Devs I don't agree anymore keep fog of war gone.

This is their playerbase... they didn't want to listen when I clearly stated Empires was a failed idea... they sat on it too long and keep making the wrong decisions.... thus now the path we are headed down. Colonies feels so dead...

A brig will fit through a large gate frame.

You kids have good ideas then you start spouting your typical nonsense.... ugh... One the survival element in this game is there because its part of their core programming.... They made all these dumb recipes and stuff that go into it... and they don't feel like cutting off their nose to spite their face... even though they should... Atlas is not a SURVIVAL MMO... ATLAS IS NOT A SURVIVAL MMO.... Say it again in your heads dev. Atlas most glaring issue is that it has NO IDENTITY except for they maybe kind of want to be pirate themed... (LMFAO) You've split your players into 50 million categories and you need people to be on one map so it feels populated... no one... NO ONE wants to play a game that FEELS dead... just because some parts of hte map have conflict going on doesn't mean the others do... 1.) Atlas needs to find its Identity... and move forward with a singular group of gamers in mind. 2.) Look how much money you are making from private servers... is it worth it? Keep them... scrap PVE servers.... Are they not worth it? Scrap them and scrap PVE servers. 3.) Remove all survival elements from the game. 4.) Make cannons fit in gun ports only; make a new type of cannon that has number limit that can go on top deck.. ( you might need to do actual research on what ships used back in the days) 5.) All ghost ships redesigned to be colonial war ships... (because they fight pirates, and it makes more sense) 6.) Make some NPC factions... This way your pvers can join one of these shitter factions and be protected and live in their areas to build their RP houses... or commence trade with other factions... and ofcourse pirate factions... (look at Arch Age) These are just a few things you can work on that would help the game a lot.... listen to it or don't listen to it... honestly this game has until WoW classic comes out... and im deleting it off my hard drive... and I know for a fact I aint the only one. This game needs to worry about palyerbase right now... because you are not going to get anymore players than you have now... Ark only saw an increase when it launched on Consoles... just remember that.

They dont want this game to be a challenge... its already to hard for the PVE'ers they are making it for....

Says the RPer.

Blah blah blah The only successful Sandbox game to date is Eve... everything else you can mention has not been around for 15+ years. How many servers is it running? 1.... it has all of its players PVE and PVP on one server... I cannot stress to you anymore of how important it is for a game like Atlas to have 1 server type.... granted they need to make a safe place for the pathetic PVE plebs to be safe in, and make it to where PVP players need PVE.... just like they do in Eve.... I am not talking about any type of mechanic that has not already been proven to work... why even try to dispute it? IT works.... I mean, don't listen... don't try to make the game better and appeal to a larger audience... keep your 3k players.... I guess thats success somehow?

That wouldn't be my rhetoric at all actually... my reply would be... what do you do next... Every powerstone is a copy paste experience... My whole damn point is... as a PVE players you literally can do everything the game has to offer in less than a Month.... If they add anymore more PVE content before fixing server issues, and PVP issues they will never have anyone to play the game and it will die.... this game wont be around if they focus on PVE... like I said they come out with another early access survival game all of you PVE kids are gone.

Thanks man, that link did the trick!

Don't get all defensive.. Belittling your playmode desires is just pointing out how fickle and bored you kids get... the game mode is literally BORING... after you are done building your little house and your ships... WHATS NEXT... nothing man... you stop playing... thats it... why cater or do anything for a group of players like that? Thats my point... you telling me you gonna be on a server with 20 people for the next year? farming your farm, and milking your cows? Hell no you aren't you gonna be on the next EA titled that lets you build a house... because thats the playerbase you are... pathetic.

Oh the HD problem I figured out... I was using Ark color mod instead of the Atlas option..

you dont pay attention... thats has been fixed.

Niche games have to make Niche moves... Can you please explain the point of PVE to me? There isn't a million things to PVE... so... building ships sailing them around alone, and building houses? Farming your lil farm? Milking your cows? Sounds fun... go play a private server.

I could do that when I get home, but yeah when I open it it replaces the background with Transparency... every time it converts from image to .pnt it makes the background transparent.... old ark painter mod maybe?

And you will be why this game dies at the end of the summer.... The PVE kids will have nothing to do after about a month.... and the PVP people wont have anyone to kill.... PVE kids like to build, PVP kids like to destroy... kinda makes sense to put them on a server together... gives them both things to do... like I said.... you lack vision.

I can when I get off work, but in short its just a typical pirate flag... Black Background with a Skull... when I pain the image on the flag... it shows up exactly how I want it to paint... but it will only paint the Skull... and leaves the background default canvas colored... if that makes sense?

A sort of person that wants this game to be played for the next 10 years.... and not just the next few months until they close down the servers due to lack of interest.... Thats the direction they are headed... its a niche game... they can't expect more than 50k players... and if you spread them out across different servers.... you ultimately get a dead game... no one is going to continue to play a game that feels dead... so yes I very much believe that you shouldn't split your palyer base on this type of game. Sorry you don't agree with me... but you obviously lack vision.

Correct, Ships, and Cannon mounts could be manually fired to render NPC defenses completely useless.

1. Can you please get us an actual NA server possibly in Chicago? Thanks... tired of this German crap. 2. Can you please delete all PVE servers.... thanks... literally no point in playing this game PVE.... like.. what do you even do... build a mansion... invite Bearded John the Strong lvl 1 over for some rum?

This is exactly the point I am trying to make so the devs can make quality changes instead of this bullcrap they been working on..

Every time I convert my image to the pnt file for atlas... when I paint my claim flag... it just does the emblem and leaves the background blank... and make it look like dog crap.. I tried saving and editing the photo like 5-10 times.
