its a survival game. If your not quick to claim you beg. Not happy with it? There is always minecraft which is just as fun. There will never be cake for everyone at this table, only the strongest get their cake!

Trade not happening on your server? You could find a tribe to trade with for grunt work.

Well tough luck I guess. Either trade or suck it up. You aren't going to get a personal gas vent.

Wauw. such great and helpful comments. "Suck it up, claim or beg, there will never be enough cake for everybody at the table". Real hard keyboard warriors and their tough talk. Another example of what a great community this game has. Even on the forums you big tribe pillar idiots act like ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. My point is that there was ZERO chance for me to claim one single gas vent right from the start. It's not about sucking it up, it's aobut getting my money's worth from this game. You cant play abberation without hazmat suits so everybody should at least get a snowballs chance in hell to get to gas by his own means. DEVS fix this. make gas vents only lockable when players are online or something. This is ridiculous, and so is every idiot that tells people to just suck stuff like this up. it's a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ game breaker. I'm not grunting for other tribes. Screw that.

quit ur crying. if you play online you play by the laws of nature. If you want ur own ven play in singleplayer or on a small server. im not touching a map with a billion gas vents because ppl refuse to work together on a server.

The real problem is that it's like the oil wells on some of the PvE maps.

With one tribe that says "Derp derp, we need every single solitary open oil well we can find even if that's 10x more oil than we'd ever use"

We have one gas main. It's producing enough gas to keep us supplied for the extremely limited amount we need. The problem is that people get idiotic and greedy for no reason what so ever.

At least with oil you circumvent the greedy idiots with ocean diving, no such luck on gas.

^ That's exactly a PvP mechanic that do not fits well in PvE indeed, had to social engineer my neighboor tribes so they finally open it. Best tribes on PvE will open them, selfish peoples will farm them all and come here in the thread go git gud. Understand your feeling OP, don't loose your hope because most in here are selfish, tons of nice peoples in the game if you ask them to be nice.

Sorry devs but this is BS. All players should have possible access to recources. So what to do now, beg for other players to trade? Ridiculous. This seriously breaks the game for me and a lot of others. It's been a few weeks now, devs do something about this please.
Wipe out whoever is blocking access and disallow them from enjoying the server. Or, use the oil you get from killing trilobites.

Could always tame a load of Dung Beetles for oil.

Edit: Wrong type of gas. Have only just started playing the Aberration map >.>;

im sure the s+ grinder will have the ability to turn oil into gas balls once the dev kit is updated

If you play on PVP then just destroy it and put yours. If you play on PVE official then just trade or find hidden one. On my unofficial pve server we have an unwritten rule to unlock all gas collectors and that way everyone got tons of gas. Most of them are full and waiting to pick up 240 gas

Try unofficial servers with enforced rules about unlocking oil wells and gas collectors.
Cobretti Jan 2, 2018 @ 10:19am 
There are heaps of gas nodes in the blue zone and on my server although all gas in fertile zone is taken you can always find a free one in blue.

Apart from that, educating the server about how quickly the gas refills led to quite a few tribes unlocking.

The gas collectors also auto demo in 3 days which is really short so you could get lucky.

Yeah this sucks. Currently on our server we own the only unlocked gas vein there is. People had already built near it but we realized if we weren't fast enough we'd lose it forever.

I feel this mechanic needs to change slightly. Maybe make it so maybe 1 row of materials is available to anyone but the rest of its inventory goes to the owner of the cap.
KevBal Jan 2, 2018 @ 10:42am 
odd. I havent had to rebuild my gas collector yet. Its taking damage from earth quakes but not demolishing. I just repair the damage from the quake. Not yet demoed and Ive had it for about a week.
