  1. EU PVE : 2 hours preparing and travelling. As we aproached the border all go nuts in chat that the fountain moved. I thought it will change every 50 ingame days not every 5???? What am i suposed to do now ?? hunt it for the whole day?? THIS IS BS
  2. My 1. idea was, someone thought that it would prevent SoD's from spawning. But can confirm its not affecting the spawn. 2. guess to sink other peoples ships, but you can drive trough
  3. hi, we traveled a alot today and in lawless grids we saw a lot of ladders build next to the border. Can anyone explain why?
  4. Hi, i understand what you are saying here. The name "SS Buchenwald" in this particular case seems to be exactly what you think it is. But i have a big problem with this post. I will explain: When you search the internet for the ship prefix "SS" you will find some sides including a list on Wikipedia (English), in the english version "SS" stands for Steam Ship or Steam Screw. But if you google it in german, you will find a Wikipedia list in german. This list says "SS" stands for Sailing Ship and Steam Ship. My problem here is, i myself googled it in german as we started and i named our ships "SS Maria" and "SS Niobe". So i am from poland and live in germany, i concider myself as the opposite of a Nazi and still i get insulted ingame everytime i write in german. thing is, in that "toxic" environment i would suggest to report such things to the support and not make it public in this forum, so the hate ingame will grow further. Now i am concerned that i will get more of this insults while sitting on my "SS Maria" talking german.
  5. So we are on EU PVE, we tried over and over and over again to see the best in this game but it is not playable at all in this stadium. Few things that we encountert in over 200 hours of gameplay: -Players are toxic as hell (i played Ark on Private servers only so never seen this behavior before) -No Anticheat, No Admins, No Support -Devs are working on something but we will never know what they are actually doing (missing communication) -Claim system is a bad joke (in PVE only) its like give the griefers more to do. I Explain: in this toxic environment how do you think the new system will help? Desperate players or companies will grab the first spot they find to build on claimed land (some will spam everything with foundations). The most "Landlords" will raise the highest possible tax. Most of the "Landlords" will not allow to build on their territory, or will let you build and than exclude you from their list. -Lawless regions are overcrowdet by both, innocent players that want to start and griefers. Most of the islands look like Manhattan (shipyard next to shipyard) -People now start spamming the islands with foundations and nobody cares, even after reporting. -ressources respawn not being patched. -Sotd are now somehow balanced (i know that there was an issue with rapid fire), it is now easy to avoid them or kill them with minimum risk. In the northern grids, somehow nothing changed, we saw about 30 ships in one grid yesterday, most of them over lvl 25. Their loot is a joke, except NPC's. -tamed animals are worth nothing, tamed Bear lvl 23 makes less dmg than a bow on wild animals. -some islands are pure cancer. Saw an island in the desert grids (Lawless) with only predators. Looking at the shore with my 2k resolution monitor i counted: 2 Pigs, 14 Crocs, over 30 vultures, 8 Giant Snakes, 12 Wolfes, 4 Lions, 4 Scorpions, 2 Spiders. All that at one shore. -Alphas on Lawless islands are way to op and there are way to many -Serverperformance: We are back at the releasetime only that the serverpopulation decreased from 150 to arround 40. Serverping on EU PVE is almoast everywhere 240 (sometimes with only 15 players). Rubberbanding is back. Fighting against hostile animals or npc's while treasurehunting is impossible. -No way to protect your ships from beeing sunk by griefers. Yeah we can report them, but why should i report someone when my stuff is allready gone and i know for sure that they where reported by others allready. We managed to protect our "respawnship" by building a box arround it on lawless. -Shipdecay and Maintanance is out of this world. Skilled it to the max so far, but we have to login every few hours to refill the ressources box. Released a Galleon today and needed to refill the box after an hour (travelling from one lawless to another to go treasure hunting), after we met not one but 20 cyclones while anchored at a shore, arround 4000 wood, 500 iron, 4000 fibers and 2000 thatch were gone. Wait there was something, ah yeah how do i refill the box when there is no ressources on the islands? there is a lot more to mention but my fingers are hurting so let me say one last thing. How would the game look if i started it today the first time? I would deinstall it after 30 mins Sorry for my bad english, i am not a native english speaker
  6. Some said it is because of the foundations. As they removed some, trees started spawning again. i would say leave like it is now, maybe some of the foundation spammers will learn a lesson
  7. New Update: Grid 51, we are in the north now. On lIne 3 there was no land to grab (we did not check all of the grids). Headed further north to N1 where our Brig was one hitted by a "spermwhale" and sunk. We are now back at where we begun our journey and even if my friend says lets build a new ship and try again, i am done. The whale spawned 30 meters in front of us and headed right against our ship, without the right wind direction we had no chance at all. I spent over 200 hours at this game and next week i have to return to work. I feel like constantly getting kicked in the behind.
  8. Passed Grid 41 (N9), on Strafberg Island we found a pure beauty. A third of the Island (Lawless) is surrounded by large gates, another third of the island is spamed with foundations and all of this by the same guy or company. In front of this huge area are 6 shipyards (all from the same guy/companie). In my opinionen this is pure insanity, i don't get what these guys are thinking. Okay these gates are ugly but sometimes usefull, to protect a ship or a your base from predators, but this is out of my understanding.
  9. Yeah seems like last hope Roan. So still nothing happend, pressed "H" and searched the perimeter that is shown but found nothing. 5/6 of the claim is Water so my only guess is that someone glitched into a stone on the shoreline. We are now heading south again, if there willl be a free spot it sure will be a hell of a fun, dying from cold, travelling for Fibers, Fighting against wolfs, travelling to get the vitamins that are missing down there I don't get why the devs just let us use our beds in the lawless zones, atleast we would have some kind of safety and are not forced to start all over again. btw actual count is 38 grids including freeports and lawless
  10. So after days we now decided to steal a claim, but somehow it doesnt work at all. Can someone explain how it works? We found a small island with one company on it, that claimed the whole island, so we decided to steal one flag. We went out and found a spot, no players sleeping arround. We pressed F1 and a blue circle was shown. I placed the flag and it sayd something about contested and a timer popped up with 9:59, but nothing happend. Is this how it works? Edit: We've placed our flag and we are waiting. One hour passed by and nothing happend
  11. So after traveling through 30 Grids on EU PVE, i learned one thing about claims. There are a few cool Companys that would spare a claim for a single Player or a small group, but most of them is settled in the tundra or in areas where you have to fight against snakes, crocs... . But the most companys that have claims are greedy like hell. We travelled in one grid where a company with 3 people online claimed two islands with nothing but shipyard and a 2x2 hut on it. Asking them if they can spare one single claim resultet in an insult and the tip to go in the tundra. In the next grid we entered we could spectate how another group was trying to buy some land. And again there was only one guy claiming an whole island. As the group asked if he could spare some land, he answered : "No there will be NPCs somewhere in future to build a trader with and i want to be a trader". This are only two examples for what we have seen on our "little" tour. So if people complain about the claim system and how bad it is and how bad these chinese folks are, i recomend you take a journey arround the map and take a look what some, if not the most "companys" are doing. But to be fair, its not only the claims, on lawless Server we saw whole islands spamed with Foundations and gates. Before you blame the Devs take a look arround you and open your eyes. The only thing devs can do, is to restrict claims to one for each company (maybe two) and makeing it depent on how much online players a company has. Atleast on the pve servers.
  12. K9 has the same problem, ping is over 200 it is even worse than at the first day. Some say it is because of the chinese but im not sure. Sailing or fighting is impossible and if you try to open a door you have to wait a few seconds till something is happening.
  13. Hi, we are two guys from Germany (44 and 35 years old) we are looking for some Land. We searched 12 Grids and found a small spot on a Lawless Island. Please send us your offers or contact us here. thx Glombo

    So they are even at the shores again. I like the idea of this Game but it is simply not playable for a smal group. We travelled 15 Grids, every Island is packed with shipyards, they even block eachother. So no place to build a ship. in the 7th Grid we found a smal spot to setup a smal shipyard, after to days we managed to build schooner, destroyed our shipyard and set sayl to new advenutres. We managed to bring some players from one island to another. Then the Ships of the damned killed us instantly. Since than we traveled with our Raft to the south. Island after Island is Packed with Shipyards or claimed with Flags. I counted 25 Shipyards on one shore in my field of view. Now we are in the Tundra fighting against the cold, snakes and sabertooths. Even in the Tundra every squareinch is claimed. Again I love the Idea of this Game and i love what it has to offer even in this early status but it is not playable for me and my friend. We tried to play on aur own Server but it is way to expansive and way to boring with only two grids. I hope they will change something, maybe some more official Servers and remove the claim system and Fix the Aod, so we can enjoy the game and its idea and i will not have spent my money for a cool idea that went wrong.
