The problem is that if you jack up the upkeep to really high levels, it's going to hurt the solo/small companies, which is who they're trying to help.  If you don't, then spamming will be an issue.  If a single foundation decays faster, people will use two.

Keep in mind, if you're a decent non-griefer player, the first thing you really want to do when you find your spot of land is mark off the boundaries or the next day when you come in to build your wonderful taming pen, you'll find someone has built a big stone box right on top of your spot.  Or if you've got a decent space and everything built and a jerk moves onto your island and tries blocking the good resources, you're going to have to spam something around them to keep them being blocked, and maybe safeguard some other areas as well.

Without regular claims, everything gets really tricky.

because is only 1 server and u cant really know wich players stop by at ur islands yea those things can happen u might never see that guy he just come for reset to troll everyone else on that island . isn't like u say a lot of douchebags at this server Ill just hop on and find another one na doesn't work like that in atlas sadly .

Yeah, no doubt.  To a certain extent it becomes a question of how much pain in the backside is really worth it?  I'd hate to just throw up my hands and figure we're doomed though.  Again, hopefully they have a plan of some sorts that I don't know about yet.

as i know the pve players and what i saw the flag spam and foundation spam in lawless i must say after wipe doesnt look that good if u are not fast to take what i want . probably u will need to go again on lawless ^^

They seem to be saying upkeep will take care of this?

What I'm imagining is something like a lone foundation would poof ridiculously fast, or maybe have no aura itself at all.  I'm sure there are ways they can use what they're introducing to combat this at least a little bit.

It's not like this isn't foreseeable.  Hopefully my faith isn't misplaced but I'm (extremely) cautiously optimistic they've given this more than a fleeting thought.

players will always find ways to keep the timers good without decay rate to increase . I remember when they changed the timer on ark for pillars after 3 hours u saw pillars with ceilings on top and still was on original timer . they cant really stop those kind of things … Like I said there will always be a way to keep ur timers good and for upkeep should be that hard...

K8 same thing we sailed by to check islands no bases around just foundation spam ^^

As a developer, I know it's quite impossible to create free bugs software; however, I think is good trying to equilibrate the game between players when you solved a lot of the currently bugs .

yea I mean with this wipe wont solve that much maybe only regarding the land the bugs and dupes still be there … ^^ so all thinking mega companies wont be big anymore that's just a joke . They got that big cause of player base and we all know mega companies abuse bugs and dupes a lot .

Many players abused the bugs, so it's good to make a wipe. I'm upset to wait until 20th of March for the wipe, not for the wipe itself.

The big dissapoint point is the reward for players, a dumb hat xD

bugs and dupes will always exist even after the wipe and patch look ark for example dupe bug is still there after 3years + ^^ and his official release .

my opinion wipe and with that changes they wanna do to the pve will not make it better as it was with claiming flags . atleast there u could rent and live happy all what u will see is tons of pillars and foundations everywhere .

every company start with 5 flags so people would choose carefully where to place them . For mega company add 1 flag per each 10 players also add 4hours for each claim more so basicly for second one would be 8h for third one 12hours and so on .

For all this to work good u must disable crew members to count as flag contester .  As I said like this people would choose carefully where they place flags also wont be a spam on it . Since each flag added more raise the timer with 4hours more . 

Also what goes over 5flags per company upkeep goes also double more for each flag .

Also ally make it max 2-3 company like this people will not stay alone in company only for more flags contest ^^

What u guys think its just a idea no hate needed

Cons :

removing flags so will be a pillar/foundation + griefer heaven over there

fix : 

1 flag / player or max 2

Or, maybe, just maybe, people will still play to have some fun messing about with the 6x rates because they won't care what happens in game. So no, no-one is totally wrong, just people have different opinions on how the months notice will impact on players. Some will stop playing until wipe, some will still play and mess about.

their biggest mistake is to announce it with 3 weeks before

yep stupid post. my home zone had max 5 people online before the wipe information for weeks

 

the wipe will help the game for sure. the information has now 1 month time to spread and more people will here about it. i expect even big streamers play again at the big patch

u are totally wrong . population will go down till the wipe day cause no one wanna loose time to do something when they know in 3 weeks they loose all ? u must be really dumb to invest time into something that vanish in 3 weeks and u are announced about it

No it sounds like they want even smaller tribes to have an Island ... They want to reduce the amount of Island MEGATRIBES hold. 

mega company will always have couple of islands? why ? that's why they are called mega nothing would be so hard to upkeep for 100+ players just think about it . after wipe I give it max 1 week till everything good is claimed then we will see back the topics we had wipe but we don't find land to build . By claimed I mean pillared down .  Its still funny to see some people really believe them in what they say .

Yes I know, what is your point? It seems to me you just joined in with the whole ATLAS game and you’re here to do what others did 3 months ago. 

not really mate im not against wiping was just a idea im more up for like limit the flag count to don't give to griefers the heaven place

This is such bullshit. Most of the notes have been suggested here or on reddit before. Stop with spreading nonsense because you don’t like something. 

so many good ideas still they did same crap as in ark . stop being blind isnt any nonsense u will see it in 1month+ . if u played ark from begin u know same craps happened there aswell under same management .

While i would have loved to keep all my 700 hours of progress, It doesn't look possible, they will be moving island and buildings are not linked to island so would be in places they likely would be unusable.

Enjoy the 6x until the wipe to finish the projects. take lots of screen shots,

pretty sure I wont be to active next 3 weeks its no point also to announce a wipe 3 weeks before makes people to don't really wanna do anything ingame .  they will not move islands no problem they will just place new ones ^^ they don't really like to code things . was tons of good ideas on forums they just decided what they blind thinked and don't care about players oppinions .

Just now, Ben de Witt said:

Jat mentioned, that they also want to wipe because of left over code from bugfixing.

Lmao is only because is more easy for them instead of coding something .

Dont complain, you receive wonderful fancy stone pillars in exchange for the lost claim flags

we never had flags we was ok in lawless just was a idea . will open so much land if all flags are removed

why not only wipe the flags and people still keep their bases and all and will free up a lot of place basicly is the same thing without to be a griefer heaven . Who had flags all around the map and didn't builded to bad for them they will cant keep the land others can just go there and build … is the same solution as u guy provide us .

na or eu ? pvp or pve ? we are looking aswell we are a small company of 6 people ^^ no luck in claiming flags till now

i can sell u what u think as payment

i wish good luck to u buddy

Maybe for you its the end of story. Others would like the problems fixed. What did I expect from a pirate game in EA? Nothing more than I got really, but this IS a problem, and it should be solved.
Secondly, you dont need to lie about your numbers to make it seem like you know what your talking about. You cannot farm 240k wood in 5 hours. And your 2500g in any hour conveniently leaves out the time it takes to find enough maps to make that much, as well as sailing time between islands. Bit disingenuous.
Its not working, so fix it. End of story.

actually u can farm that ammount of wood without a problem . for the gold aswell u stack maps only on 1 grid easy peasy we did 1.5k in 20 mins without x2

got fixed in last patch or is still broken anyone can confirm it whos breeding now
