After the unoptimised buggy mess no matter what spec you had that was ARK......NO THANKS IM OUT. wouldn't touch anything from this dev ever again

Good to be cautious but I hope they succeed. We need PC devs doing their own thing.
I'm curious enough to warrant a buy and I'll play for an hour or two and refund if it doesn't grip me - providing the price is alright.

Looks like a normal mmo with boats and pirate outfits.

What me and the wife do in the bedroom is none of your concern.

yes, like releasing paid DLC for a game in early access
still doesn't sit right with me to this day

The article I just linked above they said that they realise that was a mistake and this game will not have any paid expansions or DLC.

well that's good to hear
Part of me wants to dive right into this (3k hours in ARK) but I'm hesitant due to how poorly developed ARK was, it took them forever to make the game to an acceptable standard and it certainly wasn't an MMO... Plus the only person I'd want to play this game with is at Uni full time
Scorched Earth was created by a different studio separate from Wildcard in attempt to make back some of the money they lost being wrongfully sued by some company due to a loophole in the law. I don't remember the specifics but it was disgusting. It never bothered me personally as I knew why it happened way before the hate bandwagon formed.
Now basic and core features in ARK being broken to this day on the other hand, that bothers me, plus some baffling design choices like dinos fleeing when their KO meter was above a certain %... Yuck

Couldn't really care any less why/how/who made a dlc. paid DLC for EA products should not exist at all in my opinion.
this doesn't mean i won't be purchasing atlas at all, but i'll most likely hold off till full release for this one if turns out to be good.
