Forb Hidden

First of all: fix all the bugs and problems with the game. If this is done, we have to come back here and talk about new stuff.

Are you talking about they listen to us as we asked for bugfixing, incrased server performance or a better support? no they don't. It's way more important to bring in new steeringwheel skins than fix the shit they programmed. Lot of people wrote down several times in many different threads: fix that buggy shit first and if it's working fine, there will be time to implement new stuff.

Thanks Boomer. I will check out the forum (otherwise I got nothing to do at work) and hope for the best for the game. At least it's not the worst decision to stop now... My girlfriend dislikes it anyway, when I'm gaming without her

And i never read about any changement about the upkeep cost of the shops. as long as they don't change the shops in access-tables to an Atlas wide auction house, they are really useless.

This is now the third day without any reaction of the devs. Thank you for nothing again. so long u just care about our money and not take care on us, I don't have to help you testing your game. Once it's finished I will check it out again and be happy, that I don't have to pay the full price. I will enjoy the summer and some other, beautiful games with active mods on theyr official sites

yeah it seems so... But let us stop here. I started a thread for this theme. So there's no need to spam in a useless thread now

no it's not. We don't have to jump in a triangle after every change. If the changes are done and fit in the game for two weeks or longer, so the changes are seriously. Maybe then it's good to react like that. and imagine who would wipe out his island? Right, nearly no one. Or maybe after claiming a totally spammed island. Anyway it's no more an issue.

Yeah but without you, reading twitter, reddit or discord... How should we know? Informations like this needs to be placed on every platform especially on the official website. If they aren't able to serve all platforms, maybe they should quit one or two of them to serve a better support to the players.

Yes. A galleon can pass too, but you need a lot of time to fit in. Some people would say it's impossible, but many proofed the opposite.

Imagine how much it takes to safe a whole ship with painting and your own building and stuff up there in a ingame cache? A Dino with a saddle on May work. But a ship? No way. And then you should always take all the stuff out of the boxes and racks. Or can I store a hole galleon with 6 fullfilled racks in a bottle? This idea is nice in mind for incrase server issues. But nearly impossible to program it without a huge amount of bugs and wrong working localisation of structures and colors.

I don't use or have discord. Also twitter I don't use (I'm not yet a president) and why e-mail them? This is the fu*king official website. If they are not able to answer a question here, how should they do it elsewhere? I think they should think over the priority, about where to support the playerbase. A.e.: How should I test the game they made without knowing the mechanics behind? Just be there for the dudes in discord or twitter is since launch day the worst decision they made. Be present for your playerbase. Help and assist them. So it would not take 20 threads about breeding a.e. I really dislike the way they care about us, the players. I hoped with adding Dollie to the team it increases the support here... But nothing changed. I don't want to say they're not working hard or right. I'm saying they act in the shadows and hide themselves from us. The only days they were really present was the days these Chinese spambots where active. Maybe we should post more crap that they take note of the other threads... Also these threads without a answer since months.

Sure? Since when do u work in the dev company? Or can u confirm that with a official answer?

And where does this stick to the OP? This thread is not to discuss about the wipe thing or something else. I would like to read an answer for this question from a dev. Or does I need to stream a video first, that they listen to me?

Any Statement How to improve your communication?

@Winter Thorne read my last post here, what I think about the prices. @[GP] Guybrush Threepwood if the lord decides to quit the game or to loose his island and u are a active settler on his island. So why you don't talk together? Really unrealistic task u bring on here. The option to do so is real, but in the real world with real people who play the game: u really think we would let someone build a huge base on our land without knowing them a little bit ingame? Or would you build up your Disney castle on someones island without asking? Sure not... Otherwise I will start now to believe, that there are some ignorant idiots and selfish dudes. @DannyUK I call these cases bad luck. Or forced because of ignorance. Sure if I would live on anothers island, I would check out what's he doing. So I would see, if he's inactive or not. But everyone is different. These who don't care or mind about, don't deserve a free ride on a rainbow-farting unicorn. We had to bring in some effort too. @Kummba If you want to be safe without trees and rocks in your kitchen and sleeping room, u need to claim an island and pay for it. Was before this change and now it's still the same. And to all of the community: isn't it a beautiful change? Who wants to claim an island with thousands of pillars on or the best spots overbuilt? No one... With this option now you can make your island the virgin it has to be, when you touch it the first time

Oh dudes.... If u "own" a island in PvE, how should anyone be able to claim it, if you're a active player and get a lot of gold in the flag?! Right, there's no legit way! so stop worrying about. And I never said anything about the price @DannyUK. But if u ask me: 250'000g in PvE would be fair, 50'000g in pvp maybe. But I don't play pvp and don't want to mind too much into. This is something the pvp players can discuss. The only only only case that can happen to you in PvE: if u build on a claimed island and this one get claimed. Then you probably can loose everything, if the new owner decides to do so. But be honest: if u live there and don't figure out, that the island is claimable... No words for this case

Hello Devs, hello Community. Since I read this forum (nearly daily since I play atlas) I am confused about the way you take care on your playerbase, dear devs. There are sooooo many open question in here, only you can answer. It's fine, that u use discord, twitter, forum, facebook, letter-doves, smoke signals and many more other platforms. But in my example, I just read the forum, because I'm already an old man. Do you only get an hour/week for the q&a in the official forum? That would explain why there are so many open threads only waiting for an answer or a statement. Please take a little more care on your playerbase on your official website. It's the only real way, where we can get proper informations. I don't want to wait two days until maybe a player post a answer u gave on twitter or in the discord. Don't let a huge amount of people who keep playing your beautiful game stand alone with the feeling of getting lost. Sry for my English.

as I wrote: in pvp maybe it's a big thing. For a PvE player it's not a big deal. Two ways in PvE that allows u to claim an island: if the owner is AFK for too long or runs out of gold. Both ways are because of inactivity imo. As a new island owner it's a great option. U can claim a clean island and build wherever you want. A very good reward for your effort.

On PvE, where we are playing, I don't have to worry about. We "own" our islands and they're payed. honestly: when in PvE it's possible to claim anothers island, he's long time away and don't play anymore. I'm sure this guy wouldn't worry about that wipe. And my personal opinion on this is given: it's still EA and the devs can wipe us all at any time. I don't stick so hard on my pixels and can truly living without them. Additional to this, I like to build up and start from the ground again. But I'm sure there are a lot lot lot people who have a different sight on this. Like they would earn money for gaming This whole thread should move in the pvp forum. For the PvE players it's definitely not a issue to worry about.

What's about a official answer on this? The tooltips of this option is shit and we can't find any explanation for this. Devs?! Please explain it or give us a link to the manual of your game.

Disagree. this would totally isolate players and the familiar aspect of a company would disappear. With the entire system u can easily team up with your allies or random players to kill bosses and do the dungeon. So why should it be helpful to change a running system?

Just because we get this option now don't mean, we will use it. The only situation you will be willing to pay 25k is, if u claim a spammed island. This would make sense. Don't get feared about that griefing kid who maybe don't exist at all. Seriously, these stupid kids all leaved the game long ago and play wow, fortnite or cs again to become dumber that way. It's a very good new option to handle griefers on your new island. But too expensive to wipe around like a crazy griefer. And you have to claim the island first... Don't think this option will be used often in PvE. For pvp I'm not sure how annoying it is with this new option. But I let the pvp players discuss about that.

That's why I collect shipwrecks and fight the sod on my trip. boring it's when I just want to bring resources from A to B. With a way slower galleon because of the cargo containers. Or if you get so much gold, that u don't have to take care of the wrecks. There and over all it would help to fix the speedsail-bug. Improved speedsails still don't work.

Get Gold is really not a big thing. Each time I travel 3...5 grids and dive for the shipwrecks, I get 1000g or more. A treasure map after 4 grids get 600+ gold. so if u decide to do some maps in a evening (for xp, gold or s.e.) u get around 2000...3000g from traveling over and back, another 5000...10k g from the maps and the evening is done. With three islands we have to pay ~ 1500g/day. Now imagine, if you are in a company with 5+ members, this is really not a big deal. Go out 1...2h for hunting whales gives you another 2000....5000g. If you don't have 200mates on a island and another 200...300 on your ships, u don't get problems so far. If you wanna do it all alone, so you need a lot of time to handle all the stuff. Get gold, get food for all the mates and tames, produce fertilizer on all of your farms (usually not all seeds grow in every biome), check all your fast traveling spots, move all your ships because of decay timers and lot more stuff to do that the wheels keep on turning. For a casual gamer who go out for working, get a family at home and needs to sleep too, it's a lot of work and there's not much time to travel around just for hunting discoveries or bosses. As a workless duchebag without friends and family it's not a big deal. Playing 10+h a day and you can achieve anything way faster. That's why it's a mmo. So you can split all the stuff who's to do and enjoy much more the other content (waiting 4h for a spawn of a Squid or Tortuga a.e.). This game is not plug and play. Start the game, take your ship and 5mins later you're in a epic naval fight. And I hope it will never be like that. If you visit Switzerland once I will invite you. You can sit at my PC and play a hole week if you want or longer. You would be impressed, how huge atlas is and how many stuff is to do. And the devs want it that way. U should come online to feed and pay your stuff and force u to play that way. That should keep you playing.

Realist, island upkeep is really not a big thing. U have to deal with it once in a month maybe. But how should u know it? And as a dev, I would do some forced content too. U have to keep the players playing, because it's your bread as a dev. As simple as that... And still stop talking about improving something u don't know. Always funny if u talk about the game and some mechanics. And if I'm in the game it's 200% different from what u think about it is. Play the game for around three months and maybe u will understand it better then.
