Sad part is I had gotten 1500 Saps just day before this change, was collecting with bear and was an accident, actually dropped a bunch.

But even with all that, the new design makes it so I would need to go back and just fill a ship with pasts just to have enough to build stuff, the metals more of a pain largely but for me it's more the point of the matter. There was simply no good reason for the change, it didn't fix anything, made things less enjoyable, made for more grind, over all I don't understand the why of it all

The metal is bad enough really, it isn't even about gathering it, hell even the sap I can go get, but they doubled the weight of it all, and more then trippled the effort to make a small building, and the larg3est complaint is theres no valid reason for such

Odd I always thought the point of open world sandbox PVP games was to be part of a larger team... maybe its because I came from WWII Online back in the day... or I was born before the 1980s... or perhaps I understand that you cant do everything alone.  

Sorry that you don't enjoy PVE, but frankly stop trolling and fuck off.

Maybe the new age missed you, but games are about, I don't know having fun? it might seam strange but you are the minority in your opinions and all I can take your responses are a extremely sad attempt to troll. So frankly I was told to not feed the troll so after this message I am ignoring you and suggest the others do as well, you obviously get off on making people upset.

I dont want an elephant or a rhino, or a bear... or even a bull... I have 2 chickens and a rabbit because I wanted something different.  Nothing else.

So for you and your little animals and such great, for the rest of us who actually like taming and having the larger animals, 11x11 is a good small building.

---------------------

At current building in the water out of all wood is the most practical building and almost the safest even on pvp given how weak stone is and how much of a pain it is compared to multilayered wood

-----------------
won't even get into how unfair this is to newer players, now not only is it hard to find land claims but also super hard to build anything once you have them. Meanwhile starting players have lots of land claims and already made huge stone bases without a fraction of the work that it will now take me to build a small base

The new system means you start building wood and minimize the stone to just what is absolutely needed for animal protection, seams a super strange design to force a entire tier of building to be so stupid that pvp and pve just ignore it as much as possible toi use the tier before it. course to respond to that I bet they simply fuck wood up next

11x11 is a large structure.  My house is only 5x7 and 4 levels high with no gates.   It is MORE than enough space for me to fit, 2 food lodders, 1 preserving bag, 6 storage chests, 1 cooking pot, 1 forge, 1 loom, 1 tannery, 1 smithy, 1 table, 1 mortar (on the table), 1 ship resource box, 1 ammo box, 4 swivel guns, 4 medium cannons and a bed.  With 2 small crop plots outside, a water reservoir on the roof with pipes leading inside for water for cooking and a water barrel outside for drinking.  

Hmm...  how much space do you need?

Maybe I am the Marie Kondo of this game.

if you want an elephant then this is the minimal size needed for large gate

Only way we will get this fixed is if we stay hard on the devs till they ACTUALLY listen, keep it up if it takes a day or a dammed year, well by a year we just all drop the game and move to one where the devs listen

if we were heard they would get rid of them, just add metal tier to building and you fix the balance issue of previous buildings being so much easier as well as all the other complaints

11x 11 base of stone walls with 1 large gate and a floor and a roof

so 2*(35* (11*11) ) floor and roof = 8470 metal fore single layer floor and roof
2 walls with large gates so 3*(2*(11*35) ) = 2310 (2 walls long enough for the 2 gates and only 3 tall)
 

so assuming the 2 gates where already made your looking at  10,780 (13,090 -  metal- with 4 walls

this isn't even a huge building and already uses about as much metal as a galleon, that's not going into mistakes uneven land pillar supports, floor 2, or anything else

Galleon uses 14,920 metal. so when your all done galleon likely use less metal then a simple building.........

I had canceled my anthem pre-order because I was enjoying this, but now it's to hard to even build simple shit. Will give them a few days if nothing changes I guess I will go back to pre-ordering anthem again.

When there is this much anger and this large of a negative impact they need to fix it ASAP, while they still have any player base left.

This seams like a PVP things, so add in metal walls, (even pve players will likely build them for looks) give back the basic stone walls (the way they where), or make it so animals can't harm wood walls or something.

Normally I love the game, but seriously WTF where they thinking, with there building system so dammed glitchy that I end up rebuilding half the shit and having to destroy stuff to save animals and such, Why the fuck would they think that making the stupid grind for mats even harder could ever be a good thing

 maybe we can hope the devs pull there dammed heads out of there ass and fix this, maybe think there uodated threw a bit before presenting them, hell maybe ask the players what they think might be a good ideas and such.

Fix the falling threw the floors, animals spawning in buildings and other game damaging bugs before making large tweeks
