So this is a complaint about Atlas, but it's also really a complaint about practically every game. Ever notice how if you turn the default volume levels down to say 20 or 30 percent for voice or ambient or sfx or whatever, you get a volume level that is hearable but not intrusive or overwhelming, but if you want this same basic thing out of game music, you have to turn it down to about 2 percent? Its true of Ark, it was true of SWTOR and EVE and CIV 5 and 6 and The Repopulation, and heck just about every online game I can think of going back to City of Heroes in 2004 when I started playing online. What up with that?

The following track was released few days ago: For the entire soundtrack, this is the guy you want to follow: https://www.youtube.com/user/19garethcoker84/ http://www.gareth-coker.net/ https://soundcloud.com/garethcoker https://twitter.com/garethcoker/

Couldn't agree more, if we had some larger land masses like a continent. Would be nice although they did say that they want to focus the game on the sailing aspect.

But ARK did well on xbox so they should get it to consoles much quicker this time too. Because Console fans will want this too it looks very amazing the game.

Just try to be paitent please. These devs want to give you an experience and are trying to get it done.

What name do you want it changed to?

Yeah steam doesnt want our money...

There will be a lot of people who do not know about the various parts of the ship so i looked up a great deal of terms that people may want to become familiar with.

It is usually used as a lead connection for a small navigational sail. broadside A general term for the vantage on another ship of absolute perpendicular to the direction it is going. To get along broadside a ship was to take it at a very vulnerable angle. This is of course, the largest dimension of a ship and is easiest to attack with larger arms. A "Broadside" has come to indicate a hit with a cannon or similar attack right in the main part of the ship. bulkhead A partition or dividing wall within the hull of a ship. crow’s nest A small platform, sometimes enclosed, near the top of a mast, where a lookout could have a better view when watching for sails or for land. fo’cs’le (or forecastle) The section of the upper deck of a ship located at the bow forward of the foremast.

The rudder is controlled at the helm. scuppers Openings along the edges of a ship's deck that allow water on deck to drain back to the sea rather than collecting in the bilge. scuttle A small opening or hatch with a movable lid in the deck or hull of a ship.
