People get seriously pissed if you steal their ships and ram it into the nearest rock face. This game has massive greifing potential, the official forum is already full of tears.

This game really is the best now that its way more playable. It's actually what you would expect from a beta at this point.. ALSO [12:35 PM] OliverAge24 (Nickname Admin™): it won't be today so don't press f5 today [12:35 PM] OliverAge24 (Nickname Admin™): but it'll be very soon, so I'll tell you when to start pressing f5 in advance [12:59 PM] OliverAge24 (Keys™Very™Soon™): no update with the next batch of keys [12:59 PM] OliverAge24 (Keys™Very™Soon™): because next batch of keys coming very soon [12:59 PM] OliverAge24 (Keys™Very™Soon™): update not coming so very soon [1:00 PM] OliverAge24 (Keys™Very™Soon™): the servers will be more stable and be capable of holding more people yes Basically reading between the lines there is an issue removing old ships which is what caused the lag when loading islands. It's all the physics engine calculating ships and hulls, etc. It seems there were just hundreds of dead ships at the bottom of the world causing the lag before. He told me that they were manually removing them and they are currently working on an automated process. So this pretty much tells me as soon as thats done so dead ships are deleted at maintenance, the new keys will be out because hundreds of people building new ships in the noob area would just cause that issue again. So I'd put money on that's what were going to get soon as a fix, and then the keys will release because the servers won't degrade after 3 days and thousands of ship wrecks. On the flip side, some of us are in revenants where very few people have been or lost ships, and the islands load very quickly with basically no lag. forge fucked around with this message at 18:06 on May 31, 2017 |

I noticed a bunch of buried ships on islands that I can't salvage or remove. I kinda wanted to salvage them, space engineers style, but I couldn't do anything about them.

So my first map was ok, but I am WAY more satisfied with this new one. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=937036887&searchtext= I was just struck with the idea and I had to follow through.

I have a suggestion thread on the Adrift forums. Maybe you guys can check it out and give me your feedback. https://www.worldsadrift.com/forums/topic/ship-bay-tweaks-improving-clarity/ I feel like this game is really really starved of quality of life improvements. This is the sort of stuff that should have been in the game in alpha let alone beta.

I hope eventually they add megaships to the game where we can have smaller ships on it use to board enemy ships. But fly around on a mega structure of doom.

Beta's actually been quite good so far. The game is at least worth the 35 pack. I can't help that all of you guys wasted your money on horribad mmos like STAR CITIZEN, AA, blacksuck, blade and oil or whatever nonese, terrawhatever.. Basically don't buy another korean mmo ever again and you'll easily be on your way to retirement while stick picking up actual good games like this. It's a sandbox mmo with full pvp and tons of pubbies now to torment. It's made by devs with a clear vision and a good track record. So far they have consistently delivered what they say. They are also very open with the community on the happenings of the game. That said this could be a game that gets played for a long so if you want to wait until release so it's all new and shiny, there's nothing wrong with that. But if you want to drop ship panels on pubbies to kill them and steal all their poo poo. Well nothings holding you back.

They added the belt pack in because losing 100% of items was too much. And the belt works extremely well and forces you to make calls on whats important to you. Its a good design and I would highly doubt this will change. The devs are making a game and we are along for the ride.. VS AO where the players are making a game that the devs create.

Kylra posted:Yeah sure I guess I could fall to my death countless times. Bad things right now are lag walls that lock up your game for up to a minute and often toss you out of your ship (this has improved significantly in beta. Nowhere near the level it was in alpha), and a lack of quality of life stuff. Some of the core systems like ship designing and building have seen almost no improvement during alpha or in beta. Also of course limited content but honestly, not a problem yet. As is it's already good for 20+ hours of entertainment. Good things are everything else. If I had to pick my favourite thing, it's that grappling hooks work near flawlessly. It is so effortless and fun to use, the physics are pretty great, and they're as challenging as you want them to be. I mean that you can really push it and do all kinds of crazy air acrobatics and stunts, or you can play is safe. You feel like spiderman, but more rad because you're making it all work with only one web-slinger. I think they really really nailed it out of the park there, checkmate.

There are currently memory leaks, which will require a restart after a few hours. If you fail to do this then you will of course face load times. If you log out the memory is cleared on your pc and you face basically no load time.

At 8GB I was able to play for about 2 hours before things started to catch fire.

Dang missed it. Still some higher tiers on their website. I have like $200 on steam though thanks to pubg so guess I'll have to wait  This is a pro move though. I think limiting the release like this will fuel the hype as people always want something they can't have.

At 8GB I was able to play for about 2 hours before things started to catch fire. I know there is that lighting bug, but that doesn't seem to be going on all the time. I stayed in game for something like 8 hours straight while at work to test. I only used up 3.2gigs solid all day, but I didn't go island to island. So I think that's whats doing it as you load different islands you don't clear out all the goods when you leave it. Thus the required restart depending on HOW fast you are at clearing out islands, or how far you're moving around in the game.
