This seems like the exact kind of janky thing I love. Is the usual bad games crew playing?

What seems janky about it? Already seems more polished than most other survival MMOs, server issues aside.

I've sat in queue trying to join for a little bit but something is fucky because steam is claiming i've been in game 109 minutes. There is NO WAY that I've sat and looked at the login for 109 minutes. I'm seriously debating refunding this poo poo if I can't try it a little bit before I'm locked in, especially with all these suspicious login issues. Also, streamers seem to be playing no problem. Too suspect. I've also heard this game dev had another game they sold up to be good and then it just got ghosted off of steam and it "wasn't their fault," all the while this server issue "isn't their fault."

Pretty loving suspicious. There are a TON of people on the discord both blaming and trolling the company and then a bunch of apologists saying to cut them slack they are a small team.

Fun stuff all around, but yeah... I don't know. I won't be playing this again until it works for sure. Still burns me that it supposedly was in game 109 minutes. There's no loving way.

Streamers haven't been playing with no problems. There was ONE guy on for hours, everyone else was just playing videos of them playing during the streamer event or looking at the same login screen we are.

I cant stop laughing at how unbelievably poo poo this game looks in motion. Like if you cant display animations for more than two embarrassing bug boats at a time why not just write wheels into the lore?

That video is not indicative of most people's experience. This game is pretty well optimized and most people should be able to play on high, at least. That video is on low.

rust is far simpler and relies far more on player skill

i really hope mediocre gear can still compete with high end poo poo

Rust is a completely different type of game.

my comment also applies to the game media and corporate reviewers.

this game is amazing with a couple of things that could be changed to make it better, so far we've only lost 1 fight on the first day and ever since it's been a string of victories.

the game is either easy or we're all just running up against shitters

Do you have multiple personalities or something? You go back and forth between the game being poo poo and being amazing.

How are you beating people when you spawn naked, no matter your numbers? You can't block with fists, they should be able to just mow you down.

Are there private servers for this yet? I always prefer that environment to the huge clan v clan clusterfuck games like this become. I understand this is that type of game 100%, but would rather not deal with the drama.

Cool, thank you.

To any EU goons out there, we set up in a hard zone away from the Chinese. Currently holding it down with one allied clan, just quote this post if you’re stranded.

I’m not sure how long this faux-region lock will take. Anyone able to travel from eu to na? Game keeps telling me it’s impassible terrain.

Are you in Stronger Men? I tried joining earlier but I think you guys were busy fighting.

How bad is the lag really?

Every single game of this kind that I played made me quit because of the horrific lag...

Empyrion, horrific lag, Worlds Adrift (RIP) horrific lag, Atlas horrific lag....

I'm hearing mixed feedback about the lag and it's been the primary reason for me not wanting to touch yet another early access pvp survival game...

I have never experienced any lag but I've never been in a massive fight. But literally any game with a lot of players in one spot is going to have lag.

Are there any EU groups I could join? Last I heard, Stronger Men wasn't adding anyone else. I don't want to play with the NA group mostly because of the timezones, but also because of the group size and drama that comes with it.

The game plays fine on NA servers with EU lag fwiw, as I said above the only downside is most of the big stuff (Currently) happens in NA prime. With enough people coming over we can certainly change that

With the way quality materials and crafting stations slowly feed into each other in a loop and how much of a pain it is to get large quantities of any particular tablet type, I'd expect any further wipes to obliterate the playercount.

It's an early access game, wipes are to be expected. But what do you mean "further" wipes? They haven't wiped at all, have they?

There was a wipe after the initial false start of a launch

I didn't know that. I have had it since day one, but I wasn't able to play during the initial server issues, so maybe that's why I didn't notice a wipe.

Only if you rent multiple servers and cluster them together, atlas-style

But since it's done through Nitrado, probably no one will actually do that, because the kind of person willing to drop hundreds of dollars a month on a private cluster is already going to be aware of how fuckin terrible Nitrado is

Guess you're right, I just looked at the community server list to see what was available and....there isn't a single one.

Edit: Oh, nevermind...they are just pre-orders right now...

From my understanding the private servers rentable are "per tile" and does not include Iron. We do have a member of our company who has a private server up and running with a 10x resource gather to play with.

Kind of dumb, but I'll have to check it out anyway.

Not having massive permanent bases is one of the defining mechanics of this game. They told people from the beginning this is how it was and that the burn was going to be a thing.
