Polar Express

Hey realist. Xbox will become a REALITY for you at last. Enjoy brother. The water’s fine my dude.

Lol who cares what sort of game it is. Play atlas for what it is. If you don’t like parts of it that’s okay, it shouldn’t ruin your day though. The devs are making the game. Not us. We just test it.

Crabs are OP, nerf the shit outta them. The jump thing and the fact they sink anchored ship easily makes them every arseholes best freind in raiding small companies who have no chance to tame them. I just saw Handsome Stalins vod from their raid. That was some bullshit op crap imo.

I hope they make torpedoes do no damage to structures or anchored ships. Regardless of peacetime. Make them a completely PvP and pve weapon. I’d be fine with that. Also limit number to 2 per ship. Make them only good agains sharks, whales, kraken and other mythical shit. Also make them cost mythos to make and require upkeep per shot. So you CAN use them in PvP, they have good range but it’s not worth trying to fight a ship just using torpedoes, you need to come into canon range to deal any real damage.

I want airships.

This is definitely something a lot of players have been asking for. I will not raid the only guy in my sector creating a specific item that requires some form of mastery because his ability to craft it and trade it is more important than the thing itself in my opinion. It adds value to the players themselves who do the crafting/taming etc. if for instance every player can craft basic pistols by default. But only a master crafter who has specked into gun smithing can craft carbines I would totally okay with this. As long as that master crafter can then sell a fine carbine to me and then I can use it. This would give gold an actual use after the first 5000 you collect, rather than it just sitting in my base collecting dust like the way it is now. id even be okay with a basic carbine costing what a fine carbine blueprint costs right ( 2x alloys, 2x oils etc) now being the case to making the crafting tree deeper with the bonus damage buff coming from a combination of gold and the intelligence of the crafter. Just my opinion.

I recommend you trade resources for gold using the NPC shops. Especially vast quantities of wood and thatch (1000 wood for 10 gold etc) this has led to a lot of players building shipyards on my island and buying the resources from my bank (while I farm the majority using bears and giraffes for swipable thatch from reeds and wood from elephants to build their schooners and brigs. I ask them if they will be building ships on the island again later( if not I demolish their shipyards when they leave) this has led to a number of different bigger companies setting up shops near my market stalls aswell coming to my island to recruit because it’s near a Freeport. This is just what has worked for me personally, I personally like farming crops and resources because I enjoy breeding higher level mounts for farming. Selling lowish level (lvl 10-15) bears, giraffes, rhinos and elephants for 100-200 gold a pop has also been a bit of gold on the side. But this has meant I have usually ended up delivering them 2-3 sectors away. just some ideas for smaller company island owners. Enjoy the game and do what you enjoy.

Very cool team! Looking forward to the May update. The concepts look great and the iso map looks beautiful. I’m looking forward to some underwater combat aswell. The bow and melee gear works fine but I’m sure a spear gun will add to pve/PvP options for players.

I love this thread so much hahahahaha! Did everyone on Twitter jump into the happening thread for the day or something. I’m in tears reading this. Keep up the great work team. This is gold!

Hahahaha! Why are you so melodramatic? How does ME liking this after a a wipe affect YOU? Am I the authority on what people like or something? Hahahaha your a crybaby scrub mate. All I see you do is bitch and whign about anything the devs do. Play the game for fun or fuck off. You’re killing the vibe champ. Also. ur b a s I c b I t c h .

Sounds dope my dude. I’ll fight for bps. Or gold. Can you let other players run shops near the arena aswell? Build a full neutral town with your company running it( protecting it lol) good luck man. I’m in.

That’s a fair point. I’d like a week notice or something so we can all start Armageddon before the wipe. I’ve really enjoyed this new wipe. I’m playing the game in a different style and it’s been fun re levelling ( it doesn’t take too long and with the high price of respec potions I’m really being careful with my specialisations)

Is this arena going to be on na colonies? I’d definitely go to that. Sounds cools man

Really good stuff team. The mega update is really good aswell. The devs did really well on this. Thankyou.

Where did you lose your ship? My company wants raid targets. I hate people that pick on solos and small companies.

I think it’s been pretty good

I’m confused. So the big update and wipe are coming soon? Like today? Is it still gonna be PTR or is this the actual wipe?

Lol if i own an island and see one pillar blocking anything im evicting the group who placed it. Theres no place for people that selfish in any game. Just demolish everything they own. Id encourage any island owner to do the same. Pillaring should equal perma ban from the server.

Im really pleased with the changes. The devs are doing a good job.

Hahaha! See you in on atlas toxic crybaby. I’ll save you a spot on my island. Ur a cooked unit. Do you work for info wars? P r o o f s. try proves. And then.... try crybaby. ill let you be my slave any day. Slave scrub.

Lol I think most of the people in this thread will be too busy arguing on the forums to level and claim an island. Then they’ll be back here “saying see I told you so.” !! REEEEING into the abyss. Just chill. Everyone talking about being a slave is gonna end up as one. You sound so dead set on the idea. Just wait till the update comes out. Also chill with the mega company bitching. Mega companies are human. Talk to them. We are usually pretty happy to have people living on our islands. If you’re a wighny crybaby then we evict you.

Despite pulling only a short piece from the pve section of captains log 23. It still doesn’t say anything regarding the removal of the “auto repair” building. This isn’t what I was addressing in the topic and the way you put it still doesn’t address pillar spamming. It just states what captains log 23 stated prior to me reading it, discussing it in detail on these forums and concluding that something still needs to be looked at to stop pillar spamming. I’m not a pve player. The ideas in the original topic post can be used for both PvE and PvP. Alongside the new 1claim= 1 island patch coming in March. I’m not sure how I can explain this in more detail than this. I understand and acknowledge what captains log 23 stated. That’s Why I created this topic. Maybe we have some form of miscommunication between us. Im really trying to explain this as best I can.im Sorry if it’s badly worded for you.

Is this a quote from somewhere or is this something you think should be in the game? I’m just confused due to the highlighting. It sounds good. I’d still like players to pay tax to the island owner. I’d still like the island owner to “control” their settlement etc. In my topic I essentially stated that the system you mention above would work well in conjunction with a system which would minimise pillar spam. The fact that players would need to build a structure to prevent decay and block building privelege for other players could be “like” (similar to) a mini claim flag. Not an actual claim flag. Just a system that prevents decay, griefing and requires seperate upkeep to the island owners tax rate. See ;tool cupboards in the game Rust. It’s essetially the same thing.

Agreed. I’d like a system with both options. Maybe pre builts with slots for windows, doors etc and the ability to build on walls etc on them. The repair structure should be a prefab like the bank tho. Good ideas man.

Thankyou filbert. I am aware of this. The topic will mean that the new claim flag is still the same. With the claim owner owning the entire island. However, the repair structure is the thing that each other company owns. The repair structure works much like the tool cupboard from rust. So, there is still a land owner (the guy who claims the whole island) this guy sets tax rates etc but each company owns their own repair structures that act like “mini claim flags” that have a max limit per company and are relatively expensive upkeep wise. this is mainly just to prevent people spamming pillars everywhere after the update in March. Also to stop the claim owner ( the guy who claimed the entire island) destroying everyone’s stuff in the the allocated period. Now the claim owner needs to pay to remove people’s stuff if it is in a repair structure radius. i hope that is some clarification to my post.
