I think the idea of a counter tune played on the accordion is a good one. If they do introduce human breeding in the future I hope that will include mermaid hybrids.

They sometimes appear the other side of grid boundaries. As you go through you get entirely mobbed. I got about 10 or 12 in a group yesterday, you used to only get 6 max. The sloop should outrun them, but on a raft you've got no chance at all. And if it's a new player it can be very off putting in a new game. We need more players tbh, not game mechanics that scare them away so that the hardcore elite can feel superior. With the dwindling numbers i'm getting a bit tired of the elitist attitude on this forum tbh. I'm sure i'm not the only one either. We should be helping and encouraging new players, not spewing unhelpful gibes at them.

You can't attack a sotd from a raft, it makes no sense for a game to annihilate players who are just starting out. sotd should only aggro ships that are armed , you can't even outrun them on a raft. The only advise I can give that isn't the obvious "give up, it's not for you" rubbish as above, is get a ramshackle sloop not a raft. The raft is ok for gliding round an island, but the ramshackle will actually get you there.

Quite a few of us have said the same thing in past posts. Maybe one day they'll listen.

Everything, resized the ui in every combination, changed all settings on xbox too. weird thing is it only happened after the last update I got a border show up on the start screen then disappear. The only thing i've managed to do now is have the bar covering most of the lower legs of the character. If they gave us an fov slider I could at least move my character forward and out of the ui. The scaling has always bugged me since the xbox release but now it's ludicrous. Lordkhan yeh I use my controller on my pc version too. But one other thing the xbox has got going for it is the speed of it's updates compared to steam.

I still play both actually but I like using the xbox controller cos i'm old.

I just wanna add i've played atlas since pc release and then again on xbox release and gone through wipes and glitches, but nothing is as bad as having your character half covered up by the inventory bar, and not being able to change it. I can't believe that other people are ok with it.

Signed in to xbox atlas today to find that someone on the dev team has moved my ui into almost centre of screen, is it april fool already? Now my tool bar is stuck across my players butt and the health etc is so near the play area I can't actually read it. If you don't wan't xboxers buying your game then by all means carry on the good work eh. Otherwise considering we paid twice the price as pc you could at least try to give us a better gaming experience than this.No fov adjust is one thing but to do that with the ui is seriously wrong. thx

Normally digging with the shovel will deplete the stomach enough to eat something without causing damage.

Yeh I barely sail at all without the sextant buff now, i've never managed to get it much above 7000 though. As for sails and flag designs I still think they could do it for xbox somehow, even if we designed it on pc and could just import it.

To give people an incentive to do it I would think.

There's no way to stop this kind of exploitation on a legal basis, cos the countries they are in do not recognize international law. It's the same with copyright too. It happens in nearly every decent mmo now.

I don't think it makes a difference pve or pvp, some people will still get bored after hitting max level.

you can type in 8.0 if you want to, I know they have altered some stuff recently though.

I'm sure there is an option to remove structure limit on sp in advanced options, it's been a while since I messed with the settings but i'm sure it's there. Don't know if it's just my pc version though.

The problem is game content, once you've reached the normal max level and beat the bosses what is there left to do? I enjoy the building and ship building so it doesn't bother me much. But for some people it's gonna get boring pretty fast if they remove the discovery part of the game. If it was a game with quests it would be different, but it's not.

It might not be the same, but when that happened to me the game had reconfigured my audio settings. It might be worth a look.

The sad thing is there are so many really good modders out there that could really add to the official game and probably would quite willingly. I love atlas and I don't want to see it fail.

On my xbox the mics on all the time now, I don't know any way to turn it off in game.

I've got atlas on both platforms and I like the idea of crossplay, it's not the pc that's the problem it's human nature. And that's something you can do nothing about. Also a lot of the problems I get now on xbox, I got on my pc anyway. Yeh xboxers deffo got the raw end of the deal, graphs are lower, can't import sail designs etc but that's the way console gaming always is, you can blame microsoft.

Even if they make a server for xbox only you're still gonna have people who play longer and level faster than others. I just started playing rdr2 online and I get griefed and killed nearly every time I log in, and that's just xbox players. In the long run it will make no difference apart from the lag, which I get on atlas on my pc too.

In sp if you turn off damage and that happens, you hop around on the ship for ages. till it lands somewhere.

yeh but that guy uses mods and he doesn't always mention it. Besides it's the weight problem, once you go over half the ships weight your speed severely drops. In pve that's not much of an issue but in pvp it's a big problem.

Actually I'm gonna call bs on your schooner claim, and i've built a lot of them since atlas release. Forge, tannery, all crafting benches plus cannons and crew and you claim you still sail fast enough? bs. And it seems to be only you with the barbie fetish, why don't you play sea of thieves? or naval action if you want to sail and battle only with no building? btw i'm not unreasonable so if you post a vid of a schooner fully laden with every game resource and cannons and crew fighting the sotd i'll concede on the bs accusation. Looking forward to it. And believe it or not some of us enjoy building and designing our own ships, not just buying them ready made.

Motik, a schooner isn't big enough to live from, if you put all your crafting benches etc on it you wouldn't be able to move. even a brig is barely big enough and still retain a good sail speed. And I recently built a galleon solo and it's taking forever. Also my point is if you get rid of too much land there will be nowhere to put the shipyards. And games like this where you cant build get boring very fast.
