@Linxieits not the lack of servers its human greed  , pvp servers are full with 150 people and no problems on larger more wanted islands and you wanna tell me the so called 20 players on avg we currently have in servers is full then i sadly have to call it a BS. People should only have like 2 claims per person for free after that they need to add some sort of cost to them . And all these excuses about large guild will dominate and resources would be blocked . Are the 2 most re7arded excuses ive seen in a long time. But what am i expected as a person thats played a lot of online games ive found out that the avg human really aint any smarter then a monkey throwing shit in the zoo.. This claim system dosnt work for PVE and you dont need to be a rocket scientist to understand that. 

Well pointed. Agree with you.

Take a look at what lawless server are currently like - now add to that the resource spawn radius of a non-lawless server and you'll get an idea of what it would be like without claim flags.

I get that it's hard to find any land to claim and we sailed for a good few days before asking a group of friends if we could join them because we couldn't find any.

I haven't come across mega's in any of the servers yet who have taken up an entire island for themselves (granted, we've only explored about 10 regions in full so far) - all we've seen are a lot of smaller companies sharing an island with each other and protecting the resources there.

I've also seen a lot of companies allowing other players to build on their land now with varying tax rates, so I don't think the issue here is claim flags, but more so people not wanting to pay taxes, or people in fear of losing their stuff should the land owner decide to change the flag status to allow none. 

Two flags max per company of min 20 is ludicrous. Our company is now up to 20 players and although we've built along the beach front and over the ocean (in order to preserve resources), we have perhaps 5 land flags and 5 ocean flags in total (all overlapping and being overlapped by other companies) and it's just barely enough for us. Two of our flags protect and area high up in the mountains with resources that cannot be found any where else on the island.

So from our point of view, it's not about hogging land - it's about protecting what is there and making the most of a small amount of space.

I can say the same for all the other companies sharing the island with us (at least 10 companies in total) - we're all doing the same thing, and from what I've seen on other claimed islands, those companies are also doing the same thing.

 

Personally, I think the real issue which needs to be addressed by Grapeshot is lack of servers at launch, decay timers on sleepers and the way contesting a claim is currently handled.

 

Don't you think that having one land is the way on a PVE server where the maximum need to a company is to have an HQ base of operations and by having a drydock and many ships to reach far destination to gather resources from lands is the idea in this game ? 

You conquered (or maybe stolen from others when the game was first time released) and capture entire lands just to take advantages within taxation bank (=free resources taken from hard working players).

I think this infinite claims on a character is a very stupid idea on PVE server mode. This idea is very accurate on a PVP where if I don't want to pay your filthy tax, I start fight for my rights where on PVE you cannot claim back what you already lost if players have stolen from you your land and even entire base. 

I didn't come here to spent a lot of in game hours and have my base taken over the night on which  I worked hard for. This is STUPID but logical for you because you already claimed and feel ok with this. If the roles would be reversed then you would react like me but this is our world today, full of Hypocrites and greedy lazy ppl who want everything for free. 

Actually, 2 flags on a Company of min 20 members is also too much in this game as long is an PVE server ! 

My company has 10 active members and we have only 1 base because in the others we travel by sea to gather needed resources. Its very simple without too many claims, IF you don't want to earn money over hard working players.

You do know that every time you edit poll, people who already voted can not vote again? 
Good job. 

Edit:

And thank you for screwing every small company out there  Are you really not part of some mega tribe?

Ps. Your last brilliant idea would actually screw me too - that's kind of refreshing. With my 3 persons companies i was more or less neutral to most ideas thrown around.

No, I didn't knew about this regarding editing polls on this forums. I will remake this pool and NO, I'm not part of any big company but a small company of max 10 players. We don't agree with this mess regarding this EVE Online idea in this game whatsoever. 

The taxation bank among Human is wrong. The greedy lazy bastards will always like this system as long as they get from hard working players, free resources just like that by staying their your chair at home with their raised dick and from time to time login into the game to reset your captured land flags and collect the free resources! 

This is not a game where people can play normal, but it's sort of RUST or maybe REND and remember this is on A PVE server because on a PVP these Greedy Zergs caouldn't do such claims because they wont resist a day in fair fights for land. 

This a mess caused be Devs and their stupid idea within a Planet full of non Human players ! 

Just now, Elrood said:

One claim per person. Lets take 3 zergs guilds of 500 persons. This mean they have 1500 claims to spend. Will that differ in any way from what is going on right now? 

Oh, I see now your point. then I should change to 1 flag per company Only ?

So basically you want to give griefers ability to build wall all around your base and/or build on top of every less common resource on the island or multiple islands? 
They can build gates around your ship anchored in your base?
Lets build on top of every sugar plant there is, every metal node they can get their hands on and denay it to all players?
Because this is what would happen without claiming system. 

I want a system where people should have 1 single base, just it, like normal people should have. From your HQ base you can travel like in ANNO to gather the resources you need to evolve. It's all about adventure in this game, NOT claiming everything for yourself.

Just now, Elrood said:

Thank you for ignoring my post.

Think this is idiotic idea which would help only Zegs.
 

You got it totally wrong from my side. I am against this stupid claiming system which is at this moment a real mess and zergs destroyed the fun in this game, TOTALY !

The point of wipe at this moment could be useful because many greedy zergs have claimed everything since the release of this game and any new player cannot find a place to build his first base and have to ask these greedy bastards who have the max bank taxation and also they can any time to banish you from their land after you already built your base.  Many of these Zergs have claimed everything and raised the taxation to max just to stay with their family at their homes and enter from time to time just to reset their flags and gather resources for free from banks while other people are working like slaves for these bastards.

So a wipe could be useful at this moment and claiming  flags should be limited 1 per character OR maximum 3 per company BUt you have to have a skill and should cost a lot within skill tree.  

From my point of view, this claiming system is not appropriate on a PVE because we are playing with human and they are very greedy and cannot have a constructive behavior. 

What you guys think of this ? (question for non zergs !)

Yes claiming system should exist.

I was confused by the second option. Is the 'Yes' option saying that there is NO logical reason and therefore should not be wiped? If so then that is what I chose. If it doesn't mean that then I meant to pick the other one.

At that "No logical reason …" I was referring to those lands and part of oceans where there's no resource but greedy people put it there just to have more land for them no matter what. Like on top of no resources mountains far away from any of your base, if you get my point.  

For people who understand the essence of an PVE server and like to discover this game rather than be a toxic player who doesn't belong to the PVE environment.

As the title. 

In ARK greedy ppl on PVE were putting pillars and foundations everywhere around their base or where they had interest to capture land,  NOW in ATLAS, since the first days of EU PVE Official server, the first players rushed into the INFINITE claiming flagging and abused this system just to capture any land and then block you from building your first base in game and also ask for taxes max 30% (even on the big Ocean where nothing is, even there the sea is claimed OR top mountains with no resources on them !!! )

This is the worst Official PVE mode with a bigger PVP influence from those whom suck and they do a lot of filthy things that couldn't do it on a PVP server BUT on PVE they know no one will take sever actions against their behavior. 

This INFINITE flags per character must stop now if the game wants to evolve I a good way, not like this one where many greedy. hackers a bad behavior ppl defend this stupid claiming system. 

Russians and Chinese are sinking a lot of ships in Freeports or steal from ppl who came here to play peacefully on this PVE server but due to their retard behavior, many are leaving or uninstall this game considering that they wasted 20 bucks for nothing. 

If this is what you want and earn over mature and peaceful people then this game is dead before releasing and you earn your steam reviews ! 

Server: EU PVE Siren's Call

Area: N5 

Today we found that somehow these Chinese hackers (I love kzee Company), which are close to us unfortunately, they stolen from our house, after they destroyed almost all our ships yesterday, all resources from crafting station and storages which were LOCKED and PIN COded !!! They somehow entered in our house and stolen EVERYTHING !!! 

I found their youtube channel where they streamed this trolling and hacks !!! They still ruining the gameplay on EU PVE Sirens Call - N5 !!! Many other companies are losing resources because of these Chinese !!! 

Ban these bastards because they still destroying our fun and will never stop here !!! 

Their Company name: I love Kzee  and their Company ID: 1610290912

Their YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZdOF7o0teJCv7edI3QCiDg?pbjreload=10  (even its public they don't stop here and they are ruining everyone gameplay any time) 

Their STEAM Id's:

Happykzee [https://steamcommunity.com/id/kzeekz], MoonNight_02 [https://steamcommunity.com/id/kzeekz] and the other bastard got away after we got all 3 of them while trying to sunk our last ship !!! 

Please take SERIOUS ACTIONS AGAINST THESE TOXIC HACKERS !!! BAN THEM FROM STEAM PERMANENTLY BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT AT THEIR FIRST RUNIED GAME !!! THEY FIND THIS VERY FUNNY AND MAKING STREAMING ON YOUTUBE !!! 

Their base location > Their base location: cheat TP N5 -138400 222986 654

Many griefers are now sinking others ships and gather a lot of resources from them because they are aware that the next patch will fix many exploits ! They want to be sure that they destroy everyone's hard working spent hours so far to built good things in game and have full power after the patch with all resources taken for "free" from their exploits or entire Islands claimed even they don't need all land just to have free money and resources within this BS of taxation bank feature ! 

Claims should be 1 per character BUT if they want more space to conquer on PVE a claim flag should be based on a skills tree and up to max of 3 flag !!! Otherwise these greedy bastards will never let you settle down on any island just to ask for that filthy tax and if not they will capture your entire base. Either way its a very tricky issue because many players are very toxic and immature and what they cannot do on a PVP server, they will destroy on PVE servers and nobody can do a thing against them and know this because otherwise they would have been scared of their actions !

If DEVs will want to implement this kind of feature on PVE servers many good player whom want to play in a mature way and learn more about this game will leave permanently because of these kind of toxic players !!!  

Ahoy ATLAS Pirates ! 

Here are some of my ideas that I would like to see in the future in this game on PVE Servers: 

1) Crafting stations:

- Water processing station (ONLY for crops) -  transform salt water from any land (where there are no freshwater sources) to freshwater for the crops. In order to function, the station must be filled with coal. Also, the range of the piping system must not allow players to fill the entire island with chaotic pipes and for this, the piping system range from the processing station must be within the main flag, otherwise it wont work !

- Showering station (far future maybe) - every scallywag/pirate must do a shower before any next plundering because previous thefts were full of diseases.   

- Oil processing station - for different chemical materials that requires oil processing OR for example: put different type of fishes or other materials that contain oil inside the OIL station and you can obtain different kind of oil and also other oil based components for special tools.

- Gold coins processing station - where the gold coins are made from different gathered materials; This gold requires special freeport permissions in order to build.  This money can be used ONLY to exchange goods and not for the default like buying a ship or crew mates. 

2) Other items: 

- Rail Carts  - for transporting resources from the land to the ship instead of using tamed animals OR for transporting the gold from mines;

- Vaults for ships - where all the goodies are kept safe even the ship goes on the bottom of the ocean. Only the real owners can open it or the pirates BUT with some real tools to crack the vaults;

- Vaults for houses - like in ARK but smaller with many slots (at least 400 slots);

- Ship Crane - for transporting animals from land to ship and vice versa; this can be added along with the teleport feature already available in game from pre-Alpha version;

More to come as I play this game …
