Ship Tracking

[Bastard Black]

This patch is the first patch in years that actually seems decent, which is sad because all it mostly is just returning the game to a previous state. Only thing I have an issue with is the Ship tracking, why on earth should I be able to spawn in and see every enemy ship and its name as if I had a satellite in orbit tracking them..... This is a bad idea and should be removed. At least make it so you can only see the ships in areas you have removed fog of war in.

if you bothered to read the patch notes you can turn it off

Im 100% sure they didint gave us the mean to see ships in fog-of-war covered zone. Imagine playing starcraft and being able to see all enemies unit in fog of war...

Well then you haven't logged in and played yet. Because you can 100% see every ship in your grid even inside undiscovered area.

Ahh...Turn it off server side - Client doesnt matter, your obviously not a server admin for a Atlas Server

command line arguments:

?ShowShipInServer=false (completely disables)
?ShowEnemyShipsUnderFog=false (disable seeing ships covered by Fog of War)

Yeah obviously im not, nor did i claim to be. Im talking about the feature in the actual Official game.

[Well Butter my Biscuit]

Wow, that's just a crazy excuse for a "feature". Are the devs confused on why the playerbase wants?

[BuzzCuzz]

The devs are not confused about what the player base wants. They just dont care. This game has lost so much of its player base because of the constant wipes and the addition of new code. They have stated they have no clue how the code works and they want to blame everything on the first dev team. When they attempt one thing it breaks another and they dont know why. So yes by all means add new content that they dont understand how it will work. Was a good game at one time. Wipes, bugs and deaf devs killed it long before this season.

I 100% agree, I have played Official PVP since Season 1 and for many years have said it appears the devs are intentionally ignoring the community to tank the game on purpose, its the only explanation for what has transpired the past few years. This patch actually isnt that bad, but Only because they went back to the older map and got rid of stupid stuff no one wanted/needed.

Does this go into the defaultgame ini for the whole server or into each individual grid on the SGE

Since everyone here is just ranting about the developers, here's a tip. Go to the Atlas Discord and ask the question: How would or what would you change about Atlas? What absolutely needs to be changed? Then you would be amazed at how divided the community is and how everyone has a different opinion. Developers can't please everyone, but I agree that they have made a lot of mistakes.

Sounds like what a PVE player would say. Imagine being a PVE atlas player from Lower Saxony tho... Schade.....

I also play PvP on various servers and Lower Saxony is nice
