UR5 (Unreal 5 engine)looks amazing and has a new feature that we have not seen done before that I know of. Witch might not be saying that much. Regardless, UR5 gives creators of earlier titles the ability to upgrade form UR4 to UR5. This alone gives any game created in UR4 a economical life span through the life of the next engine. So, technically this could not be an issue. But something else is going to be an issue, a far bigger issue. Its called "Valheim". With a concept as good and new as this, it is only a matter of time until someone makes a legit sandbox game. Now clearly it wont be Valheim (there are only 5 dudes making that game), but more will come and eventually someone will put some money into the project. Now Atlas is in year 3 of development and on its, what are we at now? 3rd or 4th set of people working on it. It is really starting to look like they wont get this one off of the ground. That is a big shame. They seem to still be searching for a theme, insane. ITS FUCKING PIRATES! Geniuses, one and all. I don't know if you have noticed, but Atlas is already mainly PvP. If you need proof, exhibit A is the fact that no one even bothered to make sure that the new PvP towers didn't make it into the PvE version. Lol there is exactly nothing that they can provide on those servers except mayhem with zero recourse. Exhibit B, Just about every problem you have on PvE is solved in PvP. Its not a separate version, its just PvP with dmg to self and structures toggled off for other players.

Pirate is a stretch for offline raiding people with the newest and most powerful offline raiding tool yet. Id say a thief in the dark at best.

Dude you gotta let this go. It aint gunna happen. This game is not released, its in EA. Everything you are doing is testing for enjoyment. No one is checking these tickets, and frankly you shouldn't expect them too as that would likely take away from development. To be more concise, they don't know how to fix your problem at this time, so it wouldn't do them any good to try. Your problem stems from the product being unfinished and in a state of construction. Nobody calls the elevator repair man to come before the installation crew is done installing it.

Well your welcome, its a great movie. In addition to not wanting anyone to ever have that much control over MY gameplay, I also think it is appropriate for there to be an escalating amount of risk in having a bigger company. The whole pesky risk/reward thing. This is my opinion and you can side against it certainly. However the fact is that this is not at all currently an issue for megas, as many of them have full rosters with no issues picking up members to stay full. Just a wish for some people to have more control over others. If you don't trust me with full access, then don't invite me. I wouldn't join in any event.

There is not a limit to alt companies. There are plenty of places in lawless where gold is stored by megas. I have lived on lawless for 90% of my Atlas life. I have managed to never loose any gold or materials that I did not want to loose. It is, er sorry, WAS actually pretty easy to keep your stuff secure. These are all facts. Now that anyone can claim it all before I even finish driving to work in the morning, I am not so sure.

Megas do care about lawless. Perhaps not in the way you think. I refer to it as an exploit, but it might not fit that definition. What's better than having a few markets on your island for trade? Going to the adjacent lawless tiles and taking over some islands to setup more markets and WH to trade with yourself. Ever wonder why the megas have millions of gold? Its sheer volume. 50+ people cant generate that much gold on an island, but by dominating several lawless they basically farm gold in unlimited amounts. This is the problem, this is what us solos and smalls are complaining about when we say its hard to get gold and keep markets up. The ever brilliant devs stated that the markets were to help the solos and smalls and that there would be incentives for megas to let them exist and earn their keep. They were obviously wrong as the incentive ended up being to dominate the land of solos and smalls (lawless) and take it over for their own trade rather than trade with the markets we set up. This is overlooked and not discussed enough. When it comes to gold, its clearly an incentive to take 20 guys to wipe out 1 solos area to earn another 10-50k a day.

Yeah people keep talking about all these alts and spy accounts. I think 75% is an exaggeration. I have met lots of people. Many that play so much more than me, I would call them hardcore. Only one guy ever had an alt and that was for crafting back when INT was broken.

Grats to the FI, I will take the time today to report all of your post for offensive and useless spam. I bet others do too.

I am a solo and you are clearly in a mega company. Likely abusing several thing as megas are wont to do. Since you seem to be speaking for me, let me help you out on some details. For starters you are wrong. I can prove it very easily. Most megas are currently full roster. Meaning there is no issue inviting people currently. Certainly not to the point where you have trouble maxing out membership. When you say "Literally NEVER going invite new players able to come in and scuttle all the boats in the harbor." You are "Literally" wrong. The main #1 reason we do not want to be in a mega is because of what you are advocating for more of here. WE DO NOT WANT A FUCKING DICTATOR WHEN WE PLAY A GAME. You want to lock me out of more things after you invite me to your company? Oh YOU can say what boat I sail. YOU can say when and where I can build. You can say what doors I can and cant use. YOU CAN GO FUCK YOURSELF IS WHAT YOU CAN DO! At least with that I must own you view. Your idea would make people leave your precious mega more than it would attract anyone of use to your cause. You want the solo players to join bigger companies? Take away the threat of restricting our in game access. All doors, boxes, buildings, boats should be unlocked to every company member 110%. Basically, everything I can do as a solo I should still be able to do as a member of a company. Else why would I join people and lose content? Do I look like a slave? Do you want to be a slave? I'm not trying to be a dick. Would you join my company if I told you everything you could and couldn't do? If I had 200 people and said hey, "this is your schooner, there are many like it but this one is yours." I believe you would tell me to go fuck myself. I'm just saying, please don't be so attached to your fake shit I game that you want to oppress people to get your jollys off. Knowing full well you were all 100+ against 50s-80s, you took 200 people to fight 35? Well, I guess I hope it was a rewarding experience. Megas sure sound like a blast.

Devs You left in islands that megas can own in multiples. You possibly fucked every solo on lawless. I mean PROPER FUCKED! Can these be destroyed while I am at work? Can people put down multiples of these or just 1 per person or company? Can my tower be overrode by another adjacent tower? Can Megas still own several islands and then still go out into lawless and span claim areas for free to exploit market trades? No wipe? Guys, I give you the benefit of a doubt at every opportunity. How about you flesh out some details. As it is, it appears you fucked solos and smalls into oblivion right now.

If you do not respond to our feed back and update your posts again like no one responded, we are all going to report you and ban you from the forums for just being an obnoxious asshole who is unwilling to engage in his own topics. A lot of big words there for you I know. Feel free to use google translate.

You want to remove; Armored Docks BPs SoTD Peace time Freeports Stuns Feats for most melee weps level bonuses aging Ship customization Structures (or at least any remaining usefulness of them) Ownership of structures Rewarding players who prosper bar shots All gold sinks handcuffs Reload timers Player announcement for entering or leaving a server Ship weight penalty company size caps Did I miss anything? You want to have; Ships be equal in stats Players be equal in stats All gear and weps be equal in stats Ships be free No bases (proved by your wanting to tear them down so fast no one would bother building them) Very little PvE and a heavy focus on PvP @chukiki Dude, honestly, you are wanting to play "Sea of Thieves". You take ALL of this out and get what you want, you basically have a shitty version of Sea of Thieves.

LOL Sure you did.

The official servers are up and running. That's where I play and have never had a problem getting in.

The current player count has nothing to do with weather or not a wipe occurs. It is driven by necessity when a big enough change happens. In the past these were normally map/claim related changes that could otherwise not have been done without a wipe. You could argue that resetting the characters was not necessary. I preferred it though, with the rampant exploits, especially early on.

Yes. You can hold "H" and should be able to see a blue sphere. It will collect the appropriate mats that are located inside this sphere.

Can you not place it on floors anymore? I missed that patch note. That would answer some questions.

Man, sailing a brig as a solo...ballsy. I stay with the smaller cheaper boats personally. You don't feel as crushed when you run across a mythic that is faster than it has any right to be. About the wipe. I really do not believe they have any date in mind themselves. They probably know weather or not they will wipe, and I assume they will at some point. However they likely do not know for sure when work will be finished on the thing that will necessitate a wipe. We all assume (and hope) it will be the new claim system.

I was under the impression that the argument was "we can do it better and create better performance while doing so."

Yeah tickets arent really a thing. I wouldnt rely on that. I guess it's just bugged for now. Let me know if you figure it out.

Was this problem ever resolved for you?

@George Catcher I saw a 16.2929292929292 a few days ago. thought it was wierd. But yeah, I stop for anything over 10. I got 3 large armored docks of varying qualitys. I call that a 150k day in some sense. They came out of 9s and 6s. So dont sleep of the lower levels.

You can easily solo a hydra with normal plate armor and normal bow and arrow. I have done this before. OK easily is not the right adjective. But it is harder to find it and get into position than it is to kill it. I THINK you can solo the kraken. But I do not think you can solo it with normal gear. I could be wrong, but I did see a youtube of a dude doing it solo.

Minecraft, or black sails. Deuce.
