  1. Why do you need an elephant when you have a farmhouse the auto collects for you? Post farmhouse it is not required but I'm sure some still use them.
  2. They want us to be more at sea they say and less on land, well they should bring in a build limit or some sort of build ranger like a flag or 2 to build in. I've gone past islands with big structures and dear me the lag is unreal. Yes people can build how they want but what people must remember it effects other people aslo. I have no problem if people want to build high into the sky, if so the devs must fix this and stabilise the game because it is no fun for others. I have a rtx 2080 and even I have to drop settings down to get decent fps. People like to build I get it, me to but I also think about other people and limit what I build. People paid for the game with their own money though so if it is allowed then they will do it, it's upto the devs to sort it out and it's been like this for a very long time, since release. I've noticed the lag for as long as I can remember. I wish people had more consideration though towards others.
  3. I had problems building my shipyard when I started to build after the wipe. It was orange then turned to blue sometimes so it was hard to place it even though there was nothing underneath. This bug won't be fixed anytime soon so forget it, place it where you can.
  4. Which is why many haven't come back. What they should have done was implement more content when everything went silent for 6 month. They would rather work on Ark though, they have no one to blame but themselves, Jat and Dollie at the top of the tree, they are the ones to blame.

    Piracy

    I've never really played around much with handcuffs, at least not in the game. Be good in PvE though if we could capture NPC and put them in handcuffs or cages. Never even tried if you can put handcuffs on NPC I just always thought it was a PvP thing but I like the idea of it.
  6. Oh you should have seen it when we could all build in the freeport, you were lucky to get out of your own shipyard, I will never get that sight out of my head, mayhem. I agree though, people do block with boats had it happen to me a few times but just had to wait it out. Some just want to grief for fun, that's why many left a year or so ago nothing changed.
  7. I don't mind them gathering resources but it is taking the need for tames away, at least that is the way it seems to be heading, whether they take them out completely in the future remains to be seen. Yes I'm sick of the sight of seeing them everywhere also and I wouldn't be against having a limit to building. They want us more at sea, I'm all for being at sea but they seem to be working backwards giving us land based things and not more sea things. I hope we see these new ships and things at sea in this season but I get the feeling we won't going from experience.
  8. So with the news of warehouses coming next week what do people think about them now they know abit more information on them? They will connect to farmhouses so automatically gathering resources. At the moment I just use the resource box but now they will automatically go into the warehouse it's another nail in the coffin for tames I guess. They look quite big on the picture, it will be a nightmare seeing them all over the place. People have already spammed the farmhouse now we will have to see warehouses everywhere. Many probably won't be able to connect them if it works the same way as farmhouse where it says "can't place here to close" I think it is taking things away from tames, not sure if this is their intended purpose to cut down on tames but I have never used the elephant, all resources I need goes into the resource box near farmhouse. Only tames I use is bear and giraffe only to carry huge amounts of weight. People who breed and sell won't be to happy, I'm sure they will have a reduction in people coming to buy elephants and giraffes. I would have preferred them to focus more on things to do at sea first, sailing is to boring, at least to me. We need more things to do at sea and new ships, maybe NPC ships to board at sea etc. I just wish they focus on these first rather than buildings to gather resources. I know these things are in the pipeline but I get the feeling we won't see them for a very long time, maybe even next season.
  9. Knew there would be regular wipes, said it over a year ago. I remember after the second wipe people were saying it will be the last one, there will be no more wipes and I said back then that there would be. You could see it coming because things are a mess and things need to change, for big changes comes big wipes unfortunately. I don't mind them, I like them because it gives me something to build again and start a fresh but I will admit at this moment in time I am nowhere near engaged in the game like I was a year ago. Done most of the things, nothing much to do at sea other than kill SOTD so I spend very little time playing right now.
  10. There is someone on the server I'm on that has placed gates in the shore area blocking someone else. He decided to build in the shore area where someones shipyard is so now they can't get their ships out. They now argue over that area, one saying "I was here before you, remove your structures" then other say "no you weren't, I placed foundation here before you" so now it goes back and forth like that. 2 people have put tickets in against the blocking and that was 2 weeks ago also, nothing has been done, I go over and check every morning to see if it has vanished, nope still there. I think they just randomly pick tickets to look at and maybe discard quite alot of them. This is why I didn't bother after II submitted tickets last time, I had thought they changed their ways of looking at tickets but I guess not. Glad you got things sorted though, it's always best to try and compromise because as you notice most of the time you won't get help from a dev. Personally I'd like to see Mods given powers to at least look at tickets and access it with maybe options to remove if necessary.
  11. Mine gets quite abit of resources, wood, thatch, metal, rocks and loads of berries. What I have done is place the farmhouse down and right in front I placed a resource box. So everytime I see the farmhouse stop I go over to it and just take it out of the farmhouse straight into the resource box to fill it up and let the farmhouse go again. When I run short of materials all I have to do is take my giraffe which has lots of points in weight and just bring it back. Maybe they will increase the storage of the farmhouses liike resource boxes in time, who knows.
  12. Did he reach his build limit and that's why centre is unfinished? Be funny if true.
  13. Yes I think the exploit is still active, only until your ships anchors and turns green though. if it is white people can still overload it I think, not 100% sure but I'm pretty sure you can. Used to be a nightmare before they changed it, people would just pick loads of metal up and hang on the ladder then bye bye ship. There was an exploit of picking up unlimited weight which still remains I think, never tried it though.
  14. Usually the tickets take quite a few days, depends how many they have to get through. There won't be many looking at tickets, might only be 1 person from the team. I've done tickets before in the past and they have never been looked into but I hear they are starting to look now so hope it's resolved for you. This is also the result of reducing server, reducing islands and NA and EU sharing, trouble is many don't want to share and causes problems like we see. The System needs to change back to flag each or maybe 2 each or they could have just made huge islands in some of the grids. If they crack down on it though it will reduce people doing it.
  15. Trouble is the way it comes across to me is Ark is their main game and I wouldn't be surprised to find out alot of the money raised from Atlas also goes to Ark, I bet much of Ark money doesn't come Atlas's way. Got a sense of this when it went silent for months to work on Ark DLC, Jat and Dollie pulled from Atlas to go back to Ark. What they should have done is kept regular streams going on Twitch which costs nothing. Now they have added farmhouses it has taken tames away from the game apart from bear maybe but alot of it is collected automatic. I just hope they add alot more content in PvE. I'd like to see ship battles and jumping onto NPC ships and they fight you, wishful thinking though.
  16. I didn't say people wanted pincoded smithies but if you played on day 1 you would know that's how it used to be What I am saying is they haven't learned from the mistake of past experience where everyone used to steal all your stuff from the smithy, same thing with farmhouse.
  17. That is the idea, to get people fed up of PvE and move to PvP but what they don't realise is yes they will give up PvE but also the whole game. I knew when farmhouses were out there would be little reason for animals which effects breeders who trade and sell. I don't see PvE in the game long term, people will have to play single player or PvP. Hopefully they change it into factions in the future for PvP, if so I will happily play it but I very much doubt they will.
  18. That's why I always play on lawless, I just can't trust someone with my structures. I went to someones island when the system all changed, asked if I could build, they said yes so was happy building a small structure. The next morning I log in and it has all vanished. Never again. They had all those servers previously, could have easily kept quite a few and placed very large islands in them for people to build, instead of small islands we have now.
  19. Yes there is a pin code on them, I checked earlier. I also tried to take things from other people farmhouse and does not let you see inside so works as intended, at least on lawless. Don't ask me what they are like on buyable islands or if you have an ally, I have no allies yet so haven't tested but you can't take anything if you are on your own in lawless.
  20. I'm tucked away in the corner out of the way from everyone with only a few trees and rocks near me and it is collecting a very large amount, I'm not complaining though lol. I actually like it to be honest but it's a pain when someone puts one down near you then you can't put one down yourself, the distance is quite far. Luckily not many people are near me so I got mine down in time.
  21. I think the first picture they put animals in the top part to lure in the tigers and such, i've never done it myself or know how to do it but I have watched someone build one before. I think the 2nd picture she thinks she is playing the trumpet lol.
  22. Well i called it, said there was gonna be problems with them but come on we all knew that right? Lol. I've never even checked on mine yet, if anyone can take stuff out then I expect it to be empty on my return. The same thing happened to the smithy back in the day when there was no codes accessible to all. You would think they learn from these past mistakes.
  23. Yes they said they are going to make it into another feature. Nobody knows what they will do yet if anything at all. Judging from what people are saying from feedback i don't see them putting buyable ships in game. Will turn out into something else.
  24. They cancelled that idea, there is no buyable ships anymore unfortunately.
  25. They are in the smithy, I built 2 and currently collecting. I just typed in farm in search on smithy and it came up. If it isn't there in single player it must be a bug unless you haven't got the skill to build it, not sure which skill it is but I assume it is in construction somewhere. It works in official that's all I know.
