Well since quite a few people here didnt know, id say it worked

It happens to me everytime i fast travel to a different sector/server. Somehow i then see all islands of both sectors. It was an occasional bug here and there in the past, now i get it everytime. Its gone once you relog. Extra fun if you sail close to a fake island and suddenly a SotD clips through it and shoots you right away

We have a few sitting around on top of Storage Boxes, they didnt move ever. No idea why yours do? The only time i encountered that was on ships, we always lost the chicken during a storm

There is your real problem.

They threw out DLCs in ARK (even tho they screwed up with the season pass). They said they dont want to do that during the EA here, means they have to bridge at elast 2 years... And im pretty sure the servers where a lot cheaper to run.

See.. If you quote.. dont edit the actual quote.

Go on, if you think the game can be sustained from a 20 Euro "one time" fee be my guest. Thats not even going to cover the Server costs, not even talking about development. If you rather have an MMO free of additional costs and watch it die before it even makes the release... thats the way to go.

I would love for this game to have a sub or a shop (as long as it isnt pay to win ofc). This wasnt a rant about how to finance the further development, in fact i am worried that it isnt sustainable currently. I got my moneys worth plenty. If paying a few bucks a month (or even an ingame cosmetic shop, etc) would assure that they actually WANT to put the work in and make their customers happy id be all for it.

They dont. It was never a "visual only" bug to begin with. Try to carry weight close to being encumbered. Write down the number of items you can carry, next time you lose the "ui visual bug only" try to carry the same amount.

It is not subscription based. They got your money. You can be sure there will be a few bones tossed your way before the next DLC

I have seen the 30 min once in total (and then the timer was off big time), a handful of 10 min timers here and there, but most of the time i only get the "we are now deploying" crap. You would think that in a game where it is so important to log out in a safe spot they would come up with a timer or more consistant messages. Only like pretty much every MMO out there has. Not to mention that 10 minute warnings in a game where sailing takes AGES wasnt very smart to begin with.

Had that a few times, it went away after a server restart. Very annoying when you try to do anything with them, the flicker resets the radial menu aswell...

Because they didnt figure out how to make NPCs use the same ruleset and be any useful i guess... Same reason the trader is an ugly wannabe river-steam boat.

If you wipe the servers, especially the PvE ones (not much to do except for building, really) you will just lose large parts of the rest of the shrinking playerbase. See ARK. Not to mention that it wouldnt make any sense now before they at least sorted the biggest flaws (and exploits) around.

Agreed, this is getting out of hand and needs to be addressed...

Apart from the fact that the SotD should be a LOT rarer than the currently are, it is really annyoing that they dont follow the same ruleset playerships have to. I get it, it seems to be too hard to let them use actual sail mechanics. But at least adjust their speed to the current windspeed? If you have low windspeeds you are doomed. Thats not "fun and engaging gameplay", or a skill factor. It is just annoying. Nothing else. Or change the render range so you can actually avoid them. But we all know that one is never gonna happen, the "150 max" Servers already buckle under the load of 20+ just sitting on islands.

The same thing happened to one of our Briggs last night. It suddenly warped from being anchored in front of our base to the next sector. Bonus: That ship never was in that sector before....

With one of the recent "fixes" it seem like you broke the part again that made sure your crew doesnt get killed by wildlife... There was no aggro from the ship and it was anchored.

Logic clearly dictates that the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. Your Buff vs. hundreds of ships.. There is your non EA response.

There was also a 20 and a 10 minute warning that even gave you the planned time the servers will go down.

Be aware that the mod uses the Ark fonts and messes up the current ui quite a bit (they are way too big).

Same issue, yesterday between O8 and A8, today between A8 and B8... EU PvE

No idea, best part is that even if i manage to get my char off (and to another server) and log back in.. im stuck again between the Servers on the ship... I guess its the same bug that created multiple copies of your char in the past. But in the past youd just "use them up" every time you spawn. With no bodies left in the game now when you are offline you seem to be stuck in and endless loop.

Did any of you that are stuck have a changes to the beds? Do you have beds appear that got force removed by a patch? Because the list of beds differ on both Servers i try to transfer between.. one has the "new" list of working beds, one (the one i try to travel to) has the old, forece removed beds in the list too...

Scratch that. When i tried to jump to the next sector (different one) i got stuck again. That offline body/bed removal patch really screwed things up...
