On my way!

Jat said something about player shops..can't recall the exact quote atm, but it's in his blog post.

I really don't want an auction house.  Traders ought to travel to trade goods and people should be able to buy all the traded stuff at their local shops.  (at least on pve)

I think you misunderstood me abit. Auction house would be only with gold coins. All the rest of trades (Item A for Item B) would be done trough the shops. Can you imagine the traffic it would cause if people opened stores all around?

Something like a trading stand was shown in the trailer so there is hope for something like that. Build a trading stand on designed areas for them and hire a NPC that sells/trades the stuff for you 24/7. You can set up rules for what you trade different items in ratios you want. For example 10 wood for one gem, etc.

An even better solution would be a trade auction like Black Desert has with unified gold coins as main currency with a buyout option. A trading system is a must in a game like this and I really believe, that there is a massive potential for that.

I have assholes near me too that sink ships. Lost two Sloops already and cant release my third from the dock. Every day I find a sunk ship of unfortunate souls that set anker near them. I am not gonna give as this is the last the douchebag griefers can do and hopefully for not long......

Nope. I am almost sure that your flags are overlapping with someone and if you remove your flag then simply there wont be enough space for his flag due to enemy flag bubbles.

At the moment, the only somewhat guarantee to not meet toxic asshole griefers is to join a whitelist private server. I can take out my ship from the drydock simply becase someone is sinking ships all over the island exploiting the STILL not fixed ship overweighting. Just saw two people sink someone schooner within 10 minutes.

Yes, defend the bug insteed of acknowledging it and showing devs evidence of it existing. There is no point in further discussion, if that was the rapid fire bug that killed their ship, that's devs fault not their, that's like defending cheaters saying to swarm them with entire company while they reload or something.

Sucks that he lost his high level ship, but having such a high level ship I would make damn sure to rather do a massive arc around the ship then risking getting to close. Basic game mechanics he failed at.

I lost my lvl 8 raft with 40 fibers on it AND a fireplace! Can we do a rollback please?!!!! 

B7 same issue.

Wow, its so pretty, well done, I thought the dinosaur looking creatures in trailer were just a fake tease, but so its true!

Please if you dont mind sharing, how did you tame it, and what biome/zone ID/island you found it on? 

Dinos are only on the ancient ruin island with the little power stone icon on your map. 

Did you try to put the point first into stamina, heatlh, etc first?

Interesting... I sailed trough atleast 7 grids and had to evade only 3 ships. Something is definitely wrong with spawn rates on certain grids tho.

This is blatant exploiting of a game mechanic that is not working as it should. I lost already two Sloops and two rafts while I was offline. 

Then why were people able to put up a flag literally while I was standing next to them in my zone.

yes this , except wild animal dont do damage to other players items if aggroed to other player  

This. I seen it with my own eyes as I also was able to catch a random douchebag trying to destroy my walls with an agroed Alpha elephant. The walls took no damage as I seen no damage numbers. The damage numbers only apear if the animal is agroed to the flag owner of the area.

Fun can be found there where you want it to be found. If you go into the game with the intention of hating it then you wont have a good time. Atlas is nowhere even near being a finished product, but sure as hell justifies the pricetag of 20$ for what I got and what I got out of it so far is 100 hours played.

Can confirm. Lost a brig to this. Anchored in our port. This has been an issue, a serious issue, since day one. More and more people are finding out about it, which leads to more and more using it against others. 

I was very disappointed to see that this has not been prioritized in the upcoming big patch. This is not a big fix. At the very least, they could set it to ignore weight/crew when a ship is anchored. Would take them 15 minutes to fix. God knows why they won't.

I agree that your fix suggestion is a very good short term fix. Simply remove ANY weight limits while the anker is down. 

Bed on land in Lawless are not working. Only on parked ships.

It is also to me strange, that massive issues were not really talked about in the captains log at all. There have been only one small mention about claim flags from Jat (community dev) on Twitter.

The PVE servers are a paradise for Rust and Ark griefer douchebag clans. I have also atleast two on my island. I am not giving up and I dont even flinch when they try to grief me. Its funny how upset they get when you dont react the way they are used to lol.

There is a few douchebags sinking ships on my island. I cant even release my Sloop from the drydock because it was already two times sunken while I was sleeping. Same thing happens to random people that anker on the east shore or around that area. Every day when I log in I see a ship wrenk near the shore.

Also someone was able to open my PIN locked doors constantly using 3rd party software. And yes I had a random pin code. So not even behind locked stone doors is anything safe. Everyday I had my preserve bags empty and smithy too. Hell... Someone stole even rotten meat and coal from my fireplace LOL.

You can have 20 good people around you, but all it takes is one dedicated Rust toxic kid and your fun is gone.

Trying to melee a teleporting lvl 60 Wolf is the real endgame 

When you press "esc" while in a grid you can see the possible modifications so I easily can see that being modded in. Certain grids can have multiple settings changed. Including PVE/PVP, hardcore mode, etc..

Personally I would love a mixed PVE/P system with selected grids having PVP enabled. There is really alot of things the devs could make PVP grids interesting to compete for, but with obvious limitations needed. Such as smaller companies to prevent zerging the grids and crashing the servers.

No? Because I don’t want it to be easy. I liked the balance and timespan needed for ships. I didn’t like it when there was the 2,5X event, I came on and there were so many new ships.. Everyone jumped on ship building. 

 

I also like it, but then someone sunk my Sloop on the PVE server I spent a day to farm and build. Then two days later someone sunk also my raft. On the fourth day I managed to build my second Sloop which was gone again this morning. Now I am on my third Sloop ready in the dry dock and I am happy that I had to spend 2 hours building it instead of 4 like before.

Point being. When the game is in a launch ready state where my shit is safe from assholes having fun being shitheads, then I am more then happy to grind a day for even a raft.

Always the brilliant reply.  I dont want Wurm, I want the official servers of Atlas to be the MMO they promised.

And they might in a year or two, but certainly not after two weeks of early access.
