Take it back. After 5 days there has been 1 new post in General Chat lol.

This game is dead. Its beyond saving. 3 years in EA is a joke, and lets be honest its not EA at this point they're just stringing it along. They are milking it for all its worth to fund their ARK baby. Updates with things no one ever asked for, ships which are completely ridiculous and just an attempt to hide bad code they cant fix.. game is a joke.

The main activity goes on private servers with mods and better quality of life changes. I left official not long after the forts were implemented. Been playing on IS server since and its great fun. A lot less grief, people actually get along and give advice instead of insulting each other. Playing since phase 1 I wouldn't touch official with a barge pole these days.

But then all you have to do is look at the forums to see how dead it is here now. Barely a post a day in the main general chat. Says everything you need to know.

Not gonna lie, its a pretty decent troll. 

Release event for Haloween, get people to run around for a few weeks collecting skins etc.

Wipe the servers just before Haloween lol

Epic!

Final Note: 3 years of EA, behave yourself.

Thats not true, players have been banned and had their stuff removed for griefing. Make a ticket and report the player.

Dont just accept this kind of stuff.

So you built a warehouse before they could, talk about salt..... children.

Does anyone have a issue with large foundations.

I have placed a few together and they are snapped. If I place something down on them and then if I need to move, pickup or destroy the item the foundation will destroy too??

Also as you start to get close to the terrain ground level the large foundation refuses to snap anymore. Its still a fair height above my head but just refuses to snap anymore. But if I lay a new foundation I can manually lower it to the height I want and it has no problem placing it which means the terrain isnt too low. 

Good to see you listened to your player base trololol

Only 50K for a gally?

Cheap right///

You just 100% confirmed why i'm not coming back after the wipe. In fact A LOT of the long time players and big companies aren't coming back. You'll notice your player count after the upcoming wipe lol.

The ship prices EVERYONE disliked and asked you not to do! you just raised and made 50 thousand times worse.

50k for a Galleon, your out of your minds. The only way this even works is if gold is handed to you on a plate in which case makes it worthless. Simple economics. How is a solo company expected to make 50k while you remove gold making opportunities. For the love of god do yourselves a BIG favour and reverse that decision. 

You just killed your own game. Gratz. Implementing changes no one asked for and adjusting things no one cares about. 50 cannonballs stack to 100, NO ONE CARES! It made zero difference to anyone's life.

All I can do is laugh at this point because this game has turned into nothing but a joke lol. I've been here since the 1st roll out and enjoyed the game but you've lost your way....

You should seriously reconsider this "Tentative" change... I mean seriously LOL

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, i'm just going to keep laughing because i'm sat here actually laughing. It must be a joke right? I mean it has to be....

It was fun to see everyone out for the last Kraken runs last night.

I fought till I ran out of ammo and slipped beneath the waves! The Kraken couldn't do it so I went looking for a fight.

I just built a Galleon for the last few days. Cost me 500G

I put it in the Shipyard with the rest of the mats. So it goes in there. Dunno why you cant?

EU PVE has an event at 10pm CEST. People will more likely be at that one.

You have removed 104 sectors, which is about 350 islands that players may have lived on. Remove the restrictions on the placement of farms and warehouses, space is already small, or return 350+ islands!
How about this? This is a free idea for you;)

TBH just combine the warehouse and farmhouse into 1 building. It collects all resources available on that island. Adjust collection rate so its not mega OP.

Otherwise you will just have the same spam everywhere.

People will still achieve the same results but wont require having 10 farmhouses going in different resources hot spots. It will mean less island clutter and more equality as each company will be able to utilize it. Instead of 1 or 2 companies that have covered the island blocking everyone else placing them.

Make it one per company per island like the Silo.

Job Done.

I've built a Galleon specially for the last few days. Time to go out in a blaze of glory.

The Death Starfish!

I am pleased that I have more than 24hrs to say goodbye and take on the Kraken one last time, thank you.

Please reconsider a Tuesday wipe. I can’t play until I come home from work on Wednesday. I have a job and a family and a Friday wipe would be much better for me. You said your listening so...

I've rinsed all my remaining mats and mythos to build a mythical galleon, used all the BP I had left and decked her out.

Let her sail and fight till she sinks lol

THE DEATH STARFISH!!!

Yeah, to install latest update unofficial will need to wipe.

You could try to carry on but there will be lots of crashes. May even not work at all.

My last wipe for a while. I may come back when out of EA, we'll see. 

Good luck peeps.

And thanks for all the fish.

Are these currently spawning? Has anyone seen one lately?

High Desert, Low Desert, lots of Mythos, Circling islands, Crossing grids, Hours searching..

Nothing. Just lots of Whales.

I'd just like to take moment to actually say thanks for communicating.

Please keep this up.

Homing cyclones.. homing cyclones everywhere lol.

·         Bring back the experience points for the bosses; however, set a flag that you only get the experience points for completing the boss first time; in the case of the snowman or kraken each player gets experience for version one once and version two once.

But then there would be no point in going back? Do it once and then what?

Higher level people farm it for the XP as once you pass say 80 its a loooong grind. This then helps out other players who couldn't do it alone or in a smaller less experienced group. Repeating the events adds player interaction and events. I say keep it. Unless they want to add another high level way of gaining XP with more bosses?

Other than that cant argue with the rest.

I like the fog effects, it adds a short term of suspense. I too am on a Xbox one X and the region load times are pretty heinous. I think the big issue is hardware limitations with the xbox and that's why PC runs so much better. Being that this is a game preview and their dev team is relatively small, I give them a pass on bugs and optimization issues for now. A lot of people don't realize that they have pretty limited resources compared to a lot of other games companies such as EA. Plus this is a new game being made... with games such as CoD they can almost literally copy and paste the code and just add more detail to animations, a few maps/characters and switch gun stats and call it a new game...

 

Patience are required to play a game preview, just think of it as you are a game tester.. but you paid to test the game. xD

This is not a new game, this has been out for a few years now. They also have Ark which a lot of this game was copied and pasted from. Argument kind of dies a little there.

I dont mind fog, I dont need it every 5 minutes though. And if I cant see them, they shouldnt be able to see me.

I've played since first release and its only got worse. Probably wont be back next wipe.

I was in thick fog the other day and could barely see the figurehead on my galleon. That didnt stop the SOTD from seeing me apparently as the only thing that alerted me to their presence was when my screen filled up glowing red as a hail of cannonballs hit me from a high lvl galleon lol.

Yeah I remember. Just did another run, on a island that usually nets me around 20 maps I came back with 3 lool.

Pretty much all but a handful today were 0.5 quality, but still empty. 

Cant be.

I did a loop of the island and picked up all the bottles waited about 30m and did again as they should have all respawned. On both circuits must be 60-70% of the bottles were empty. Never had that. Went to a different island, same thing.
