  1. The game has more options. The thing is tames are meta and most people only know how to use the meta right now. You can use grenades and oil jars it's just not as cheap as a bear which is reusable. If you are doing a map with 5-8 people with gear that is actually crafted you will not struggle too much than if you are a solo with a primitive carbine. -_- ~Lotus
  2. A lot of people don't PvP because they don't like to PvP. By denying a zone and possible loot you are making it so people that won't PvP will feel left out. They could put the same effort of making a new zone that would be PvP into making a new zone that is content for PvE and the PvE people and PvP people would get something from it. ~Lotus
  3. What if it is the Halloween event they are just going to take that long to get the update out? Dailies I am assuming. Also Ghost Pirates cause only SotD is lame for PvE ship vs ship. Also 2 wipes for reasons ~Lotus
  4. What can't be done as a solo? ~Lotus
  5. It basically made my genetics go crazy for a weekend which led the game to just be lame after it. ~Lotus
  6. There's 2 ways to do the Hydra, You can either bring it to a cliff and shoot down or grenade it using the terrain to line of sight the attacks. Or you can kite it to the water and use cannons or swivels with cannister shot to kill it in the water it moves at roughly 35% in the water. When running the keys we have 1 guy run ahead and make sure the path to the cave is clear then have a few others run to the cave with 1 guy holding all keystones. The others run and die to protect the key holder. Once in the cave we set it up in groups of 2, 1 runs ahead and dies to get stuff off the bridge while the other gets their key. Rotate until everybody has it. ~Lotus
  7. The high end content doesn't have much replay value right now. So if they were to put the gate up now we would not do the gate. They already found quite a few bugs with the gates themselves. ~Lotus
  8. How will they test if a gate works then? ~Lotus
  9. It took a lot of fun out of breeding for me for some reason. I just can't get my drive to do it back. ~Lotus
  10. Anybody that thinks that using a ledge or boat to kill the hydra better not be using cannons outside gunports or taming traps cause that would be cheating and glitching too -_- IMO this game needs more gates to give more of a challenge and sense of accomplishment when getting stuff done. ~Lotus
  11. The reason they do 2x and 3x is to test certain aspects and numbers for logistical purposes. Atleast that is what I was told. ~Lotus
  12. I think they should make it so the lighthouse acts as a beacon. You put an NPC on the wheel and tell it go to this beacon. You put food and gold and in the lighthouse and it takes care of all the NPC's on the island and to the island. (This solves other problems for people aswell). So the game could have a formula based on distance that determines the time it takes. The formula would be something like weight x distance x autosail penalty (cause having it be anywhere near as fast as a regular person sailing would be too good). A day or so later your boat arrives at your lighthouse. I don't really like sailing but I will do it. While I watch netflix or hulu. Not really a fun game mechanic. Rules would be need to be allied to place a lighthouse otherwise the lighthouse spam will lag the hell out of the server. Reason I say lighthouse is because it's basically a landmarker/rp building ~Lotus
  13. What I would use it for is when people are attacking your island you pull up under them and board their ship! Other then that picking up maps maybe? ~Lotus
  14. We have 2 claimed but when the continents come out we are going to drop them and grab one of those. It has nothing written in the rules, however, that does not mean you are safe. I view PvP as pirates and PvE as community. I think the word you are looking for is understand. I don't understand what you are trying to say here. I write in the forums between sailing, checking discord, twitter, reddit, and twitch. I normally say Ahoy! sometimes people respond sometimes they don't and then I cry That is fine you speak it well enough to get your point across. Anyway I said I am going to bed like 3 hours ago then stuff kept happening. Goodnight ~Lotus
  15. Correct people don't need an island they want it. I'm using them as examples of how things have been handled in the past. Currently there's no rules written to my knowledge of how it would be handled the closest thing is the use of structures to inhib other players on PvE networks. Another way of looking at it, are you willing to risk your tribe for 12k? To our tribe we will throw 12k off the back of the boat when doing maps because we don't like how much the extra weight slows us down on our sail home. To some people though 12k is like hitting the lottery. ~Lotus
  16. Claiming it and taking the stuff inside sure. Keeping the land when you don't need it is unethical. Keeping it because you want to sell it is where it starts to border griefing. Here's another way to look at it. If somebody were to block off powerstones and say you can get your stone if you pay X, what do you think the admin will do to that person? What is the difference between taking an island and doing that? In lawless if you pillar off excessive amounts of land you can get wiped for that, what is the difference here? There was a guy about a week ago posting how his whole tribe got punished for the actions of 1 person. Admins have already admitted that in PvP they let the players sort it out but on PvE griefing leads to a quick wipe of that company. @KummbaWhich company did you buy it from so I can add them to the list of companies we won't deal with ~Lotus
  17. Pirates would kill him and take his stuff. He would be more of an imperial trader which was their target In some parts of the world griefing online can actually put you in jail. People have been wiped in this game for things that are outside of ToS rules. I know a few people that could team up and take roughly all islands below 50 points if there was a wipe again. What does that do to the game? ~Lotus
  18. So what happens when the group that bought it doesn't get the island? The whole concept is just bad for the game. Admins would get involved because it's a form of griefing imo. ~Lotus
  19. You don't have a safe way to actually sell it which could get you in trouble with admins. As for reputation it's like I said you take something that somebody could use that you don't need then hold it to try and make money. The reputation there is negative and the people we have caught doing things like that end up on a do not fly list. That is just in our company though, which 1 company isn't everything but I guess a lot of people actually know me ~Lotus
  20. A lot of ways to get scammed doing that. Also holding land you don't need is also a scumbag thing to do. Some people can't get the bigger islands and then other companies take the small ones because they can. Another reason upkeep needs to be increased IMO. ~Lotus
  21. It was PTR my tribe mate found him in a bush. He may have ended up in a cage at one point. How many of those games were based on controlling territory though? ~Lotus
  22. I will simplify it for you based on what I have read from you. You are basically saying that you want to play on PvP but not be attacked. You want the game to work so you can fight when you want with who you want. Anybody that doesn't meet YOUR criteria isn't allowed to fight you. You want an ORP put into a game that's principle of PvP is territory wars. So I asked you how small of a window should they make it? To me you want to be a small PvP company but lack the ability to do that so you want them to change the game. ~Lotus
  23. Ark is arena, Atlas is BG's. The meta for each is different. They want Atlas to be different from Ark so when you say well Ark had it then they don't care cause they want this game to not be an Ark clone. You are basically saying you want to have the game to be set up to work for you. The game has a window for you to be attacked and you want it to be smaller. How small do you want it to be? From 5:00PM-6:00PM EST every other Sunday except during GoT season cause you want things but don't want to commit to having them? The way I look at it is you are choosing not to do what you need to do which is either play more or join others so now you want them to change the game to work with your decision that you know is causing you to fail. Then explain this! So as a solo where do you fit into these large land and sea battles? ~Lotus
  24. That exp cheat made me so angry. They needed to permaban them from official for that. ~Lotus
