Do you stop PTR servers at 10 AM and start new servers in 0 seconds?

I think that this game will lose people because they made such an unplanned announcement.

Service to players is not polite.

Even from the number of bugs ...

 

do you really think those who didnt stop playing after losing 3 months worth of work would quit because there was no announcement of the PTR ending?

I dont think that a reinstall of the game is neccessary, these devs seem to be kind of semi-competent at least.

I am a bit worried about the number of players who come back into the game.

Filling all 5 server with 40.000 players each would mean that they need 200.000 Atlas players.....

dude what? xD be happy if the total ammount come even close to 5k lol

WTF is satisfactory. Wait...no need to reply, because no one cares.

ofc you dont, the difference betwen ignorant people and knowledgeable people is not the knowledge itself but caring about it

You've missed the point.

If you only have enough hardware to run 4 of the 6 server types you want to have in EA, and it takes X weeks to get hardware, wouldn't you have ordered the hardware to be ready in time for your 4/11 mega-patch launch? 

I can see maybe only putting up one Empire server because everyone was saying they weren't going to play on it.  But still, what kind of project planning is it to not have your hardware ready? 

Has nothing to do with ptr.

i didnt state my opinion about the game in deep on that post because it was unrelated but the right answer would have been, what do you expect from a game that almost 4 months into early acces still is in this state?, i mean SATISFACTORY has been in early acces 1 month and its initial state at early access release was way better than the current state of ATLAS so what could you expect, that goes with no mention of the huge ammount of feedback that has been ignored, even tho is surprising they dont have the hardware ready to be deployed (if that is the case) my expectations in this project are so low that even that barely amazes me.

If this game is  anything like ARK  half the entertainment comes from griefing and will always be present. 

Home it comes to consoles soon 

yet some people seem to not wanting to accept it tho, its sad such a great project (bought by almost 60k players) ends up with a average of 5k as ark (with many of those 5k being ark players)

There won't be any griefers.. devs have a plan for them.

thats is as posible as god having a plan for the bad guys, so good luck with that.

Then, do you think it's better to delete the game and reinstall it?

Correct Draale. I was on it during the PVP PTR. Ping was actually pretty good. Think I was sitting at 50-60 most zones. NA PVE will be up in a few weeks. They need more hardware for that one.

ofc you ping was ok, the average total players has been 2.5k players since weeks ago thats 12 players per grid lol

So what do you think?  Did they run out of money already, or did someone just fail to anticipate how many servers they'd need until last night?

it was a PTR, what were you expecting from something that has the word TEST on it?

My suggestion is that if you want things to change, then you will get a lot further with talking to a person with a less of a negative tone. The negative tone throws you off the topic and people just see you as giving bad feedback because you are "just angry". I think you understand that but you should also understand that I'm trying to suggest this, so people remember that this is a test of the systems in the game and devs are people to The devs want the gem to be a success but they can not satisfy everyone at the same time.

It could well be that they did not think of adding a longer claim time for the flags and that it needs to be close to the flag placed on the island to claim it. 

yup, i do understand what you mean and totally agree, unfortunately it seems that some people have taken that "good tone" for granted to the point where even when you express yourself properly your words doesnt reach them, in my opinion when that time comes some "shock" theraphy or at least the sharing of those unpleasant feelings the hard way could appear as a candidate to snap them out of it.

I applaud the fact that devs are changing stuff cause being honest 80% of the devs teams i know have their heads to deep into their ass to even bother, but then again those devs dont listen because the have the conviction of how the game should be to succed, while in here you get asked for feedback in a game that literaly doesnt know what it wants to be like, only to get it ignored afterwards, kinda reminds me of that type of exasperating girl who want to go eat "anywhere" but when you suggest all posible food places known by mankind she rejects them all

in anycase i just came here to kill some time reading and chating since i already decided to play other games, so have a nice day you all.

No the freeports aren't really freeports anymore.  Just buildings on islands.  All islands accessible etc.  It's a very broken PTR.

I built my base 6 pillers in the sea.  Just unclaimed my pigs, not that many were left.  Broke the pillers.. now everything is gone.

I'm gonna wait for the pve ptr see what that looks like and maybe go live on the pve servers.  Pvp is boring.  If I want that, I'll play civ..

At least in Civ they can't run away.

i see a Civ player i upvote

Hello Robin,

I think this is good feedback but if you want people to take you seriously. Then i would suggest instead of saying "That is stupid and retarded. How is the possible fair. No change on earth its defendable". Say, "This looks like it is a little unfair and might need to be adjusted some how", maybe even give a suggestion on how this can be adjusted to be more fair.

I would suggest that you should have to place the flag in range of the other corps flag and then you clam the island you should be able to move the flag one time. Devs might also want to set the time for claiming a island up a little?

Stuff needs to be adjusted and devs have said they will while the test is running. Don't get to frustrated guys and girls, they will change thinks so they make more sense.

Best Regards
Shep

while i do agree he could have developed more arguments on his post to make it look better i also understand how frustrated and pissed he (and many other ) can feel about this game, specially after reaching the point where 3 months and a half after initial release the game not only doesnt yet know what it wants to be but also it is neither listening what players wait it to be, so that way of expressing himself while not the best approach  from my point of view shows how tired many of us are after so much "correctly written" feedback being totally ignored (and there has been quite a lot of it being ignored), so in short if you feel the way of expressing what you feel is with a positive attitude i encourage you to keep it up, yet if people wants to come here and express their anger how they do it and the words they chose are up to how they feel about it not what you think is correct or not.

Giraffe  72 lvl

PS:

PM to me if u want some animal

PSS:

fck devs

if you are intrested in a new game (even tho its early acces) check "satisfactory", dont know if its your type of game or noy but check it out, i wish you lots of fun in your gaming life.

i love it, this game is a fucking lol-fest

mate you are being quite unreasonable, i am pretty sure many people would rather  play another game than paying 90% in taxes, by the end of the day you will end up doing pvp vs boars cause there wont be players left lol. not like i care tho, i dont even play the game anymore so w/e happens in it doesnt affect me i just come here to read for the lols but your suggestion is the biggest lol i have had so far, and dont be offended by it i dont mean it as a pun but men 90% xD

There's no doubt that they will try to keep the game as close as ark for example, to try to keep players on the servers 24/7.  In ark if you leave for more than 2 weeks, everything you own decays.. that forces you to decide.. do I stay or do I go.. and if I go.. I'm uninstalling.

This is what they probably intend for Atlas.. we build ships, leave the islands, sail around, berth for the night, repair our ships next login, if we leave for more than a week, our ship sinks. So yeh, I wouldn't be surprised to see micros added at some point or some expensive alternative.

It would be nice, to be able to pack everything we own and put it into a virtual bottle.. put said bottle into a virtual bank and log out for 6 months.  Return and unpack everything to carry on playing.  This is how the majority of non sandbox games work.  I can log in and play my ten year old account of wow.. but I can't log in and play my 2-3 month old account of ark..

thats exactly the reason i quit, and the reason i wont go back, if the game was super fun maybe i wouldnt mind but it isnt, and if i need a break from gaming i need no company to tell me "if you dont play you lose your shit"

The island I am on was owned when I landed and lost its owner due to the gold running out (anybody can *see* the content of the flag's inventory). After a few hours of limbo it was owned once more and taxes were indeed raised to 50%. Which at this stage simply means I move to another Island. Not even for a test am i willing to pay that much in taxes.
There are many scenarios in which we will have to reconsider choices. I suspect I might stay very lightfooted. 

i never understood why would they think that implementing a system in wich a % of your effort goes to another player would be nice/encouraging to players, to think they even raised it from 30% to 50%.....

I appreciate that they've added new quests and such, and while I'm not happy about how you get the sub, At least its not super easy to get either. 

As far as their new revamp on what PvE will be, I'm on the ptr and I can already tell there will NOT be enough land to claim. I feel like they are forcing people to have to build on an island owned by someone else, not understanding that a lot of us will NOT do that. We don't want to Lord over anyone, nor do we want to be Lorded over, either. We just want to do our own thing, and trust me: We will all find a way to do just that. I, personally, won't be forced into anything. Or I simply won't play this game. 

The trade thing: How disappointing. They've killed trade on PvE. But I guarentee you if we all work together, we can find a way to circumvent this, and do it our way. We just gotta make a stand. It won't be exactly how we want it, but it doesn't have to be what they have planned either.  

Land: I'll build in a lawless region or live off of my ship LONG before I live under someone else's rule. Period.  

Exploration: Wouldn't it be fun if some companies took blueprints and such they don't need, and just left it in a little unlocked storage box hidden on islands for others to find? At least then when exploring an island for discoveries, it would add an extra element.  

Point is, We CAN turn PvE into something WE want, but we would all have to work together to do it. We'd have to literally and figuratively 'make a stand', and show the Devs what we want.  

And even if they don't notice, at least we're finding a way to do it on OUR terms. ya know? 

They want 'neighborhoods'.... well then... lol

the problem i personally have with that philosophy is that one would usually make a stand for something that is worth fighting for in this particular case i believe the idea the developers have for the future of game is way to distant from what me my friends and in my opinion most PvE players are looking for, so as an analogy: when your crush is not into you i believe is wiser to just accept it let go and move on than to try to force yourself into her heart, right?

you seem to have a clear insight of what i am talking about, so if you decide to make a stand on this game i wish you the best of luck, but if by anychance you decide you wanna move on, i suggest you to  buy "Satisfactory" while the genre itself might not feel like your cup of tea at first and even tho its in early access the developers a very serious and professional and have created a nice game that can keep you entertained for at least 200+ hrs in its current state (content is comes in every month) and probably 300-400 hr once its finished. while not a MMO still a great game.

have a nice day

Game wipe didn't happen a month ago. The only thing that was wiped was EU PvE. 

NA PvE got wiped a day ago, and NA PvP and EU PvP haven't been touched.

well i stopped playing EU PvE when the wipe was announced so i never got to know that, is good to know i guess.

When will the server wipes happen? I've been waiting to play the game for basically all of March as it was mentioned there would be a big wipe, but I've not seen anything about the wipe having actually happened.

 

I think there needs to be some more clarity around this as I am sure that a lot of players are waiting for this to happen as well. Please can you give us some indication? 

game wipe happened like a month ago, next wipe will be like in a week (i think i read somewhere PTR would last 1 week) then another wipe can happen at any time during early access (they aleady stated so), so if you havent bought  the game i suggest you to wait for final release and even then watch some updated gameplays first, the game might end up being totally different from what they sold us, in any case take in consideration that even after official release buildings and ships will probably have decay wich means if you dont play the game for 2 weeks you lose your base and your boat (wich they never mentioned when advertising the game) so evaluate everything before is too late to refound.

so how are we supposed to test stuff? i mean i loged in and the graphics where as bas as if my graphics card drivers werent installed and 3 min after starting the game it crashed, that happened 2 times already, at day 1 we had rubberbanding but at least graphics were normal.

They just posted on twitter that they haven't even 'began to cook a release candidate' yet, so it would be 'several more hours' for the launch.

Idk guys... I'm so discouraged. I don't even know why I want to try it to be honest. Whats the point? By now I'm playing other games, and as much as I liked Atlas, so much time has passed I'm almost just over it.

They should never have went so long between their 'we're wiping you' and the actual release of anything.

I don't think these devs realize what they've done. And their ideas for the pve claim system suck. No one wants to live under someone else's thumb, let alone pay their 'taxes'. We get enough of that shit in real life in the form of tax season, rent/mortgages and all of the taxes paid on everything we buy. Who wants that crap in a game, too?

since they seem to play only in pvp they have very obvious problems in understanding what people playing PvE wants, only 2 types of people play this type of game, people who likes drama, fights and conflict and want to stand above others and people who wants stability, long term progression, and enjoy building, trading, exploring, but for some unknown reason they just dont get it, people wanted buildings decay gone, instead they added it to boats too, people wanted trading instead they added a trade NPC at each port completely killing trade, people needed a exploration revamp to make it fun and worthwhile and instead they just added a new area while exploration is still boring as hell, also hidding the submarine behind the kraken fight, to be honest i was so eager for a pirate related game with naval combat that i never would have expected a game exactly like what i was looking for to be so boring and lack of meaning, i feel very sad about what this could have been but we have to be realistic and accept that this developers just lack the insight of what pve gamers expect of this game

The claim system is a joke, just make it all lawless one flag per company and a set area radius to build in with a one week decay timer.

Simple as that.

player: Take away the decay timers since we are rly below the max server capacity

Grapeshot: Here you go, decay for boats.

player: .....

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

Player: We dont need claims in PvE, just prevent pilaring and fencing somehow.

Grapeshot: Ok

Player: Really?

Grapeshot: Just kidding, Here you go, copy paste of PvP claim system

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

Player: Progression in this game is 2 unrewarding and time consuming to be worth it, also you can lose all your hard work in a single disconnection

Grapeshot: here you go, proceduraly generated shipwrecks

Player: ¿?...what for? why would i want to the botom of the ocean to gather resources when i can gather a lot with my pets? or do tresure hunting for Bps??

Grapeshot: Who cares?  new content! you need to do kraken first tho

Player.......

thats because there isnt an issue , largest ship in the game = largest slowest turning circle , u want faster turning use schooner or brig , it gives u choices to make , if all ships were the same then why have different types , 

 

because a game is supposed to be fun? maybe? just crafted a galleon with the x6 event to test it, i couldnt be happier i did it now, if i had done it in normal rates or x2 and get this same piece of shit i would have proably quit (again)

designs a ship with 26 large gunports per side *cant place large cannons* Bravo!  <.<'

any confirmed loot?

no ty, it would be easier to just farm them.
