Because small to medium Companies need different rates. We need lower gold costs, and shorter vulnerability windows. We need more skill points, and more resources per hit on a node. We need faster taming and breeding, with breeding allowing us to imprint when we get back online. We don''t have enough people to imprint around the clock. We had about half of a full company at the start. A double cross by a Mega we allied with, and then a sinking of a schooner we then made, to try to get something going, reduced our numbers to about 1/4 of what we started with. So now we struggle to afford our island. We have no chance to set up a player shop. We can't afford NPCs to man defenses. I don't see us playing much longer. One good raid by a Mega posing as a small company, and we are likely gone. for good. Sad thing is this...I had been convincing people to buy the game. They did, so I was able to build up to about half company strength. I have an Organization of 1600+ in Star Citizen to try to recruit from, and an even larger alliance. That's where I recruited from. Was making some headway, despite the fact that ALL of them were reluctant, due to the bad reviews. Now, I have no chance. All interest has died. Nobody new is joining. So it will likely be that we find a new game to occupy us, while we wait for Star Citizen.

U increase the company member limit and not fix the ally member limit. The mega's do not care about your restrictions, they find a way to organize themselves. U limit the small companies, because the small's can only allied with 4 other companies, too. For example: 7 companies with each 4-6 friends share 1-2 island in a grid. That are about 35 player and they can't be allied. Mega = 5 x 75 = 375 and they could organise the zerg otherwise.

Hi folks, my Company has a small 15 point island and have determined that we have enough room for another small company to move in. Message me if you are interested. Looking for mature players who enjoy the game, and want to see how things develop over time.

Big ones have more firepower Big ones have more hp Big ones can turn faster Big ones sail significantly faster Wouldn't it be logical (from both a realism and gameplay perspective) for small ships to be faster than big ones? It's annoying to see a Sloop with 9 knots getting overtaken by a Galleon with 22 knots.

We have a small plot of land that is available to rent to a small company.(no more than 5). The land sits on a beautiful lagoon that is completely Ally controlled. It is built on currently, with some defenses and a small dock that the landlords may still use on occasion. All crafting stations and a basic taming pen is included. This area has served us well and will be a great place for a small company to get it's legs underneath it. We were given this spot as a starter island and we feel its time to do the same. Location: Temperate Zone ,Northern half of Map (more info given upon discord discussion) Defenses: Mortars / Large gates / enclosed Stone building Requirements: English Speaking / casual attitude / Ally will be required to keep our defenses from punishing you / Help where you can if we need defensive help Rent: Payments on a weekly basis 250 g/week or equivalent resources may be agreed upon for the time being until you get ships going. Concerns for new tenants: Mega Company not real far away but they have not bothered us much as of yet. Send PM to me if interested

Title

The goal here is to make Maps a little less tight for solo and small groups. While it DOES help larger groups, it's not exactly a bad thing if they get helped but the benefit is weighted for smaller groups. I'm aware that putting maps on your bar halts their decay, however your bar is an important place for tools, weapons, etc. Therefore, I propose that we gain a map folio, similar to our Legacy Compass, that can store a small number of maps, say 5-10 (Maybe 1 per 10 levels?). This folio will be bound to you the same way as your compass, so you will not lose it when you die. Maps in the folio have significant decay reduction, such as 4x duration, if not indefinite. What this allows is that I can gather maps for a specific destination, but have time to put together a half dozen of them to do in a dedicated session. As it is right now, I have to basically rush over to do maps that are further away, and hope my group's schedule aligns. Or, if I go solo, I'm pretty much forced to drop everything and go do this map right now. For the larger groups, where there's little to no need to get a specific group's schedules to align (any 2-3 schmucks can make it work) the benefits are less pressing, but for a small group it will allow us to schedule something like "Guys, next Saturday is map day, please keep 1-6 open" sort of thing.

Like the subject says - we have an extra mythical large shipyard blueprint, as an indication of quality, it wants over 100 mythos. We're looking to trade for a small, mythical shipyard blueprint, since we aren't having the luck in finding one. NA PvE, PM me here, I'll follow up. Myk

Hello my friends and fiends, i noticed that u can build ridiculous close to other players structures on lawless grids. This lead to massive ugly foundation spamming around ppls areas. Today a player got locked in by some toxic players, i don´t want this happen to me. And i don´t want to sprinkle foundations around my area, doesn´t look good and takes server ressources. My question is if there is a certain structure that got a larger build blocking range than foundations? Maybe gates or beds? I don´t want to block a huge claim, i just want to be safe. WHY grapeshot WHY did u remove the old claim system and WHY u made the protection area so small???

Hello small company here. We are going to stay small as well. Looking for small piece of land to pay taxes on. Easy going group of mid 20's guys. Active everyday. We also use discord.

Unlike the medium and large wood gates the small wood gate unlocks with the stone tier instead of the wood tier building.

trying to place small stone gateway, of course it doesn't want to snap the way i need it, and then after about 15 seconds trying to place it , game freezes up and or crashes put all my stuff away, ran around for while. same affect, small stone gateway trying to place.. then crash again. tried validaating steam files. and still same issue, lowered all my graphics and stuff and put it in windowed full screen from full screen. still same crashing with small stone gateway.

So at one point I heard that there was going to be the ability to host a full Atlas map on about the same hardware as Ark for those in small groups or playing solo. I have looked over the appropriate areas of the website and found nothing about this. My friends and I would rather have our own custom server then play on one of the many servers out there because our playstyle does not match up. So I am just wondering if this is something that was found to not be doable or was it a horrible rumor that was never going to happen? Our current dedicated server box can run any map of Ark with up to 5 people no problem. Would like to run a good size Atlas map with the same hardware. Would also love it if someone could point me to a Server Manager similar to the Ark Server Manager.

Oke I understand elephant not fitting, but a Rhino literally fits through the Small Stone Gateway but doesn't fit when the Small Stone Door is placed into the Small Stone gateway. And it clearly looks like it should fit.

Don't know if this is a PTR issue or a longterm issue. Never seen these snakes before. But they are a much bigger snake than the normal snake size. It seems their hitbox is also the same size, which for the smaller snake is easier to target, but on the bigger snake, you need to shoot at it's middle to do it any damage. Trying to hit it with a melee weapon striking at it's head causes you to completely miss it. The hitbox needs to be extended to cover the entire snake. (thought I'd posted this to bugs)

Hi all. We are a small company of three friends. Active players who cant seem to find land. We want a land to build a small base and shipyards. Is there anyone out there? :D We are right now searching in Tundra North, but all seems occupied here aswell. Any tips where we can find anything?

We are a company who don't need lands and lands. we found one small corner and put the flag. We all had the vision to build a small castle. For some reason, we could able to connect to the server for two days and we lost everything. Paragon company stole our castle and claimed land. We put so much effort and time to build something. What you can build in this game when you can be off for a couple of days. All this bullshit in this site https://map.playatlas.com/ encourages people to get more land. As developers, your reputation is not getting better but is getting worse. This one mistake what did in this game from begging and this till stays. You want to have leaderboard well look at other games how they do that without destroying the player base. I hope until wipe you are going to do something because people already left the game, grapeshot and snail games.

We have 45+ Active and Social members controlling Three Islands with all the resources. -->Free Tame (Bear) and basic tools and building materials to help settle. Only 15% Tax. -->We worry about paying upkeep for the Island and defending it against outsiders while you peacefully settle and build your bases and ships. Message me if you have any question .

Ive got a small group of 3-5 players on Krakens Maw NA PvP that is just looking for a relatively stable place to call home. We are mature, real life friends and willing to pay taxes for a small spot to build on. We would prefer to operate on our own, but that doesnt mean we aren't willing to help out with larger goals as well. Does anybody have anything available?

Plz ADD small company to atlas aswell. in ark they Made max 6 player company with Some allience fix, ,, rn only way to play the game is in a mega company play just with your friends its not gonna work cause you Will get wipe by a bored mega company

I placed a shipyard and made a sloop like normal and placed everything but the sails. when tried to place sails it said must be placed on a ship which i thought was odd....i released ship and still couldnt place sails...then noticed sloop taking dmg,,,still hasnt moved since released it and then booooom it sunk right in the shipyard... well there goes 2 hrs.....

Just a suggestion: Can we have bigger, more readable text fonts? I find them too small and somewhat blurred on top of that. It's very hard to make out the names of the islands or locations for example (on the map). I get that smaller font allows for more item stats on one page etc., but I feel like this is really too small. Anyways, I understand that you have much bigger issues to solve right now, this is just a quick suggestion for something worth considering imo.

I'm unable to craft small Storage box in my inventory .i Try all day nothing work . Thank you for your time .

lemme start off with saying this: The jump from a small ship to a medium ship shouldn't be taken lightly. the amount of resources for each plank goes up by 400. This is a insane increase and should be brought down. I get its a bigger ship, but the size of the panels are way to small for the amount it takes to make them. I say either lower the cost to make them, or make them take up more space on the ship
