It worries me, that patch 6.5 was quite a long time ago, but the 3 day claim stuff simply isnt working and I didnt see it adressed anywhere from the devs...

There are issues, but there must be a reason why 56-60 000 people play it daily

Just like people say that Ark is dead? yeah... It is not. 56 000 for ARK atm and 55 000 for Atlas and a funny thing is, that Atlas population seems to be slightly growing.

On PVE I would made a strict 24 hours time span. If you didnt SPAWN at your bed in base in 24 then it would be claimable. There needs to be a lockdown of some sort since I cant even explore as someone is trying to steal my land max 1 hours after I saild out... During one tour on the sea I had to respawn at base like 10 times. And yes... It has to be the initial land owner and not someone from the same company.

write me a msg when you arrive at the island

Some people take joy by being assholes to others and its sad, but there nothing you can do about it atm

You are welcome on my land at B7 main island I have enough room

Yep. As already mentioned a workaround is possible if you want to explore. This is tho only an option on PVE servers. Put a bed on your ship with a box and just venture out as usual. If you see the pop-up that your land is being claimed simply put up a campfire, lit it and jump into it to die fast and respawn at you homebase bed. When the claim is canceled then simply repeat the process and spawn back at your ship bed. The only problem that may occur is someone intentionally trolling you with continuously putting the claim flag up. As I dont have any other crewmebers I cant confirm it, but if the other person has full rights set in the company menu then I guess it should work.

Arent you suposed to set "rules" in the particular section such as company rules and alliance rules?

I would expect bigger islands in the future, but not really a "main continent" as it would eat up multiple server grids. More variety in island types if imo quite far on the "to do" list when it comes to new content plans.

On the ocean floor as a rare spawn.

The most northern parts have no fibre. Only the lower tundra spawns them.

Even in PVE people can kill you with a repair hammer while sleeping using alpha animals to breach walls. This is all about people and how they chose to behave. There is currently close to no need of a trading system that would people give a profitable option to looting others. Not even on the PVE server.

Some have tried, but they DDoS you out fast if you invade them.

Honey is present in the form of bee hives in temperate locations.

it indeed works like that. It goes like this: Green: 2 resource items of the same type (leather and fur) Blue: 3 resources (leather, fur and hide) Purple: 4 resources And always what the basic crafting recipe is, but 2, 3 or 4x I think there is even one more rarity above. but I havent found one yet.

To focus mostly on network stuff is fine and good, but there is this pretty much gamebreaking issue as stated above. I did test it on my own house and all that was needed was an elite animal and my walls fell within 10 minutes. Not to mention the hammer killing on PVE servers. This is more then enough to justify a complete PVE server wipe imo. I really hope the flag limitation is gonna happen soon including a servers wipe.

What propaganda lie? I was replying to a sentence you made about PVP and getting slaughtered by higher level players.

are we talking PVP or PVE server? And what do you mean with opened? You wont find a free spot anywhere anymore. You need to claim someones flag. Just pick flags without any building on them. PVP servers are not suited for lone players or very small groups. You will get zerged unless you join bigger companies. Thats how the game is designed. You eighter accept that fact or move on.

Well if you opt into a PVP server that is expected. If you want to lonewolf on pvp server you gotta be prepared for stuff like that.

Took me 30 minutes to claim a lone flag. If I did it. You can too!

The whole point of lawless areas is to offer people that left the freeport a place to stock up on resources or even build the first sloop. Thats why the lawless areas are positioned right next to Freeports. In the future they might remove the build restrictions on lawless island, but for now they are active. I was on a lawless island for two days having my bed on my raft. I see absolutely zero problems with that system.

The bugs put aside. I am surprised how stable the game is. I crashed maybe like 3x on day 2 and never since. Ofcourse the server timeouts were present, but it was the same for everyone on the grid I was on.

bouy is stopping resources to respawn. I can see it firsthand on the trees near the shores and no stone nodes respawning on shore.

Sap is from sugar for example. Generaly speaking from "sweet gatherable resources". There is, as of now, no sap in tundra biomes, but should be plentiful in tropical biome and abit rarer in temperate (honey) and desert. Crystal is also quite common in most biomes near or even directly on mountain biomes. Gems iam not sure, but also most likely same case as when it comes to crystals. Rare stone like nodes that are shiny near mountains.
