Tezcatlipoca

Iam not sure if they spawn inside or just glitching through the wall. But my pen is always attacked by hostile wildlife, becaus the want to get inside. There must be also a bug in their targeting, because there is no line of sight. 

I can not understand why the wildlife is causing so much trouble here. These are all problems that did not exist in Ark or at least were resolved. They just had to copy the content and change the skins.

It's easier too. Overloaded boats and animals just can not move like in Ark and the crew limit only applies to NPCs.

Both are simply stupid mechanics that bring more trouble than good.

I belive there is a greater thing, that needs to be removed: PVP! It will never work and it will never be a good and fair game. A 24h PvPMMO is nothing more than griefer bullshit when one attacks while the other is asleep.

Did anyone stored a Bronto in a House in Ark? I Think no one is so stupid... There is no need for that heigt, because no one will waste time and ressorces to build such a height wall. The heigh of the small gates are more than enough.

Alphas in Ark was fairly ok. They are rare, there lvl was not overtuned and exept the little raptor, all are big enough to see them from a far distance. Alphas in Atlas are atm a total fail...

Iam seeking for potato seed (wild potato?). i have already travelled to much maps and island, but i cant find a spot. Can anyone tell me were i can find them? Name of the island and a coast side or better?

large

i realy hate these ugly large gates

The wind system feels boring and a waste of time. If the wind is low or comes from the wrong direction, it takes far too long for the wind to change again. My playing time is limited and should not be wasted with inactivity.

Having a lull is perfectly ok, but not as a long-term effect.

The complete crew management is cumbersome and sluggish. Here a fundamental revision would be good.

 But do you kill them? Many people are talking about an overfload of alpha’s but when you ask if they wiped them they won’t answer. It can differ a lot. Some people only bait them away and are later amazed to be killed by one. 

I can, but not in open combat... They are to fast und moving to unpredictable to hit them. I lure them in a pen and kill them with firearrows (It's best to ignite the ground under their feets.) Its possible, but no satisfying game experience.

I lost a bear to Alpha Wolves again today. I have already lost so many animals here as in 4000 hours Ark does not. That's really annoying! 

They are not rare. There is one behind each stone ... I already disposed of 4 yesterday and after a short while the next one was there. In Ark they were rare and you could avoid them ...

rhino is sadly useless, like many other tames. 

My best experience was an alpha horse... Killed nearly my bear and runs arround like a horse on steroids. Triggert not by me or itself. Its getting agressive by his other stupid horses, witch always running arround and getting scared by come to close on any player.

I think alphas should remain in ark. The concept behind it does not fit into this setting. In addition, they are far too strong compared to players and the environment. 100 to 200 additional levels and the alpha buff too. This is far to much!

My repair crew will getting crazy by seeking damaged parts on our ship. Please give us a key (H?) witch will display all damaged parts as healthbar on the current ship, so they can see what needs to be repaired. 

Ships can move realy slowly backwarts at pressing s.

Sails must be caught, I think.

I'm not sure what are the devs plans for these ships. However, for now i do not consider this part as entertaining content because the effort is greater than the benefit.
 

Iam still building a new Brigantine at now and iam still thinking about ist best usecase. I allready own a well shaped exploration ship, so i thought about a battleship. 

2 x 6 gunports + 3 large sails = 15 npc crewmembers. Their upkeep will be very expensive and this leads me to my real question:

Is the loot quality of the Ship of the Damned realy sufficient? I dont believe so... The crew upkeep is high, the materials needed for the repair and ammo must be farmed and at the end there is alway the risk to lose the entire ship. As long as the loot does not exceed 100 gold, hunting is not worth it. Until then, it makes more sense to avoid the ships and go simply tresure hunting. But with this realization, you quickly realize that you no longer need an expensive fighting ship. This somehow seriously jeopardizes the entire PVE concept.

Let us unclaim and rename ships, so we can sell or give away them to other players. I wanna build ships, but i dont need so much and i dont wanna upkeep unneeded stuff.
