    That's always been a thing for whatever reason, anyone can lower your back emergency ladder.

    What about not doing any ladder and simply put a roof ramp on the side? Does that count as a ship deck (extension) and is not accessible by others? 🤔

    I think rentable non pvp enabled plots would be one of the only way to solve that issue. There would have to be something unappealing with said plots or it would defeat the purpose of claimable lands beyond those shores. 

    Maybe enable a bounty system to discourage rampant griefing. 

    I can see that as a workaround when it comes to the land claims, but the "zerging" of the special grids still stands. Not necessarily in terms of alliance handholding dominance, but more regarding server stability and literally locking down the grind by constantly having 150 people on it.

    1. i am sure it was asked already, but what about the overlapping of flag claim?

    2. Sea claims... Any solutions or plans to change them? Currently I am personally completely locked down by massive sea clams preventing me to build a drydock...

    3. Mixed PVE+PVP servers plans? (only certain grids have PVP enabled with different rare resources on the islands)

    The devs will never be able to do anything about shitty people being shitty people, and this being a pirate themed game griefing will always have an excuse. I'm not advocating it or saying its ok just saying its gonna happen. 

    I think they shouldn't even have PvE or PvP server to be honest. I think there should be PvE zones and PvP zones. I think they should charge gold after everyones first initial land claim as well has having rentable plots of land in freeports. 

    PVE/P mixed server grids would also bring some issues that would need to be adressed. For example how would bases work? Or how would the server hold if two big companies decided to fight over a special server grid with rare stuff on it. Would make zerging even a bigger issue sadly where big alliances could lock down rare resources on the special grids... 😕

    Have you not noticed the countless threads about griefing?

    It's a nice thought, but just like the real world, Atlas is also full of assholes.

    Thats adressed in the next sentence you didnt highlight 🙂 . I am also trying to be nice to assholes too in game and in real life. Sometimes its very interesting to see their reaction. 🙂

    I guess that has alot to do with my work experience working with many different people in customer service.

    In theory we are all wasting our time building massive bases for the obvious early access wipe probability, but its the building process that makes it fun for me. PVE building is also much safer, for again obvious reasons. I would love to have a water based going up a cliff at some point, but for now I didnt find a suitable spot yet. 

    Its so amazing to see the creations of some people just randomly when I visit different islands. 🙂

    I did build an outpost on one hell of a hostile island with Croc spawns, giant snake spawns and atleast 10 vultures per square meter, but after I build my outpost, the spawns seem to have lowered the amount of predator spawns in a circle of aproximately 50 meters.  At first I thought it will be impossible to live there. Asap when I set foot on the shore I had 5 (FIVE) snakes on my tail lol. With time and some fire arrows I cleaned the area and the spawns decreased somewhat significantly. Game is already super easy as it is on PVE and nerfing the predators even more will make it a complete snorefest

    I can understand if someone claims, that PVP server is hard to play solo, but how the hell can someone say that PVE is hard to play solo?

    In PVP it is obvious, that joining a bigger group of people is pretty much needed unless you want to end up as a slave on someones island under their protection. There might be ways how to make the game more fair for smaller groups, but never for solo players on a PVP server. PVE is easy if you are atleast somewhat of a decent human being. Treat people with respect and they will repay you with the same. Just like in real life you might come across some random asshole and just like in real life you walk away and try to surround yourself with decent  people. Having a mic helps alot also.

    Thanks, I submitted one as well. I just want to raise awareness because maybe this exploit is more heavily abused than is realized. Not sure why it isn't fixed already though.

    Reply to edit: Ok thanks good to know! Seriously though hope they can just patch this overweight exploit completely out.

    It is heavily abused on PVE. I seen it multiple times when a company named StrawHats sank multiple Schooners, Brigs and Sloops (including mine) that set anker in near proximity to them. After sinking them, they scavenge what they can ofcourse. They also did try to grief me. Killed me with a hammer when it still wasnt fixed, opened my pin locked doors and stole stuff from Smithy, tried to get into my base with agroing alpha animals (failed since the animals dont damage walls unless agroed on you) and tried to steal my flag (always failed 😄 ).  Now they pretty much gave up trying to troll me as I never gave them the reaction they desire. 

    There are three advices I can give as someone with experience of being griefed by pathetic trolls.

    - Move out from the island (last solution)

    - Dont give in and never show them any reaction of anger. They feed on it and lose interest fast when they dont get the reactions they want. If they still continue, then report them and wait.

    - Find a place on someones claim and build a "outpost". I know... Can end horribly, but believe me... There are also nice people out there!

    This renting claim system is a super "trust" heavy mechanic. In many scenarios, the one who builds on someones flag is in risk of literally losing everything except the stuff he has in boxes or locked containers. All the building he did is wasted if the one who owns the claims one day decides to screw you over.

    The french dudes wanted to talk me into removing the flags for them yesterday 😄 Not sure if they actually settle down now. They didnt understand that noone could reclaim because of the overlapping. But there should be still good space there. 

    And yes I have the small place with the gates 🙂

    I wonder what would happen if you switched the flag to locked with my building in it. 🤔

    Please dont lol 😭

    I was a struggle to build my little place over there. But the more people show up, the more spawns will be blocked which will make living there more fun for everyone 🙂

    Also thats why I linked the Wikipage 😄

    Oh and another point. You have so much sugars around that you will have firearrows for days.

    Already settled in up a hill 🙂 I don't know if its your house with the wood gates around tho 🙂 Met already a nice French dude so it looks like a cozy place.
