I agree if you build a base by the coast ur asking to get attacked by anyone just passing by. I live on a lawless island and have not been raided since game has started and I play solo. The reason is because my base is in the middle of the island where it cannot be hit by ships. Yes it can still easily be raided but hasn;t been touched. By building inland people have to take a slightly little more risk with setting up a cannon etc where randoms can get to them. I don't know why everyone thinks they have to have their base right on the coastline.

I do like your post only part I would disagree with is when you say it should not be land based i believe it should be 50/50 land, sea. Also The SOTD should only have like 2 per server at a time with way more loot. This creates a hotspot for ship PVP and would actually make the SOTD worth fighting in my opinion. There should be some kind of upkeep or overall tax on land claims to stop people form claiming entire islands / servers. Also maybe even getting rid of Fast travel to a certain point and make ships little faster would also encourage more ships out on the sea which could also mean more PVP.

Stop with this stupid daily raid timer. It will completely ruin the 24/7 pvp we have now.

You are still going to have gankers waiting for you that follow you out of server to kill you and take your goods you just bought. How about this make freeport like any other area where pvp can happen but put NPC guards / ships in that server zone for protection. Hey look at that we added content for the wanna be pirate / hostile people and created a somewhat safe way for people needing it. Its not 100 % safe but still gives that risk and reward we all like on pvp correct. On top of the NPC guards etc you could now have players also offering their service to protect you while in that server zone even more content for the ones that want to be the good guys sounds like win win.

Stopping people from changing company names will not do anything. People are just going to use an alt account that's not in the company.

No to the of offline raiding idea. Coming up with a different solution to it yes but to simply remove damage while offline in this game would be exploited and ruin the 24/7 pvp. The game is still EA its more of a beta than anything in my opinion so the exploits bugs people are abusing will hopefully get fixed. till then a wipe would be almost pointless because it would just happen all over again. Also if Jat was in that stream watching good let the streamer show all that crap maybe Jat will take it back to the other devs and they can look into fixed or preventing the stuff like whats been happening. I agree there are a bunch of companies out there ran by kids or people with the you work for me mentality but there are also some really good ones out there as well you just have to look around. Plus the game description says ultimate survival so most people probably take that as hardcore survival.

Thats what happens when devs start to cater to all these people crying saying the game is to hard, or that they need some sort of protections.

And??? So what i'm a fanboy whats wrong with that. I really enjoy the game and the mechanics well most of them the melee combat weapons combat is a little wonky. But over time hopefully it gets adjusted for the better. You say its broken i say its fine.

If you dont like it then leave and come back later one if they decide to fix it.

I have no idea whats going on in this picture and i absolutely have no interest in it or EVE.

The game can still be hugely successful and not have to follow EVE footprints. Its still EA there is alot they can do and many ways to do it. And I'm sure there has been some epic battles and pvp in ark and even at this stage of Atlas which for the current population i would say is pretty good. Would I like it to grow of course but before that happens the devs need to put a ton of work in. Cant even have more than 50 people on a server without having massive lag atm. I picture hardcore as being no holds bar everything goes no form of protection as in PVE area where people can hide or an offline protection, which EVE has.

This is not EVE. Just because the developers said they were inspired by it does not mean its going to be EVE 2.0 pirate version. And the reference to ark was about how they added content and it evolved into more as time passed. I did not mention anything about hardcore PVP. Just stated that there are a ton of reason as to why the population has decreased. And I could care less about EVE and the world wars lol. You say significantly less cost to keep ark running how so ? Last I knew Ark had way more offical servers than the ones combined on PVP and PVE for Atlas. If it was as " hard-core as they come " it wouldn't have any kind of offline raid protection.

There are several other more important reasons as to why people are leaving this game. Give the devs time to fix and patch the game and add content its still early EA. Look at ark for example how far that has come in just a few years just have to be patient is all.

I like all that except the part where you can look them up later and see who they are affilitated with at that point. That would still make it so you could not really hide at all.

I agree that the log is lacking and needs to show more detail who destroyed what and so on. What does the EVE logs do differently ?

Or the large companies could stop being pussies and attack each other instead of nutcupping and being allies with each other ??

I like that you have the ability to change company names. By allowing this it gives a chance for a small or solo company to hit a larger company and stay somewhat hidden.

If you want to claim land then fight for it and take it or try to sneakily take it from someone. Or how about you form and alliance with a company that has it and im sure they will share I know quite a few companies that do this already. Where in my last post did I dictate how the game should be played ?They were suggestions not demands. And personally I have had way more fun on lawless servers than I have on ones where you have to claim the land.

Don't post while on Meth.

because my issue with admin abuse. I have a very aggressive play style and most admins do not like that and end up banning me or using their powers in an abusive way to set me back. On to of that having a blast in official server where its challenging and populated. Most unofficial servers have jacked up rates that make it pointless to do anything. No. But its not hard to have a 2nd account and its only another 25$ to have. For some thats not much money to spend on a game if they are putting in hundreds if not thousands of hours into it

Yes I have experienced griefing and i have meet up with NoNoNo. The griefer i griefed back and they ended up moving to another server. As with No clan i just went around their territory. As for me playing 24/7 no i only play a couple hours a day and am enjoying the PVP server with no limitations to the raiding, and also live on lawless land. I am not against having an offline system where bases and ships have a structure Buff where it will take way more explosives etc to break in. I am against 100% offline immunity where if a company is offline their structures and ships take 0 damage. And in a PVP i belive there should be no safe zones, yes I know there is now and wish it would change which unfortunately wont happen. Also the map is huge why not move away from Nonono company and try again. And you complaining about large companies owning / claiming all the land that is what this game is meant to be. You as a solo person shouldnt have the RIGHT to own it if you want it take it by force or make a deal with another company. I know several companies out there that will let you build on their island with a tax of course.

Thats because 99% of the people asking for ORP want the total immunity when offline. Alot of us on the PVP server do not want it modified to the point you have to travel all over the place just to find the 4 people in your server you can raid or PVP. Offline raiding is gameplay one its a way for a solo person to take down a much larger company that would have no chance at doing so with them all online.

Just people on these forums.

I agree puckles need a buff of some sort. But i also think alot of the issue with those are lag. And there are still ways to keep valuables hidden so people cant get your loot.
