One of the first things that really stood out to me as an issue when I was reading about the game prior to its launch is the map. (Here it is for those who haven't seen it https://www.pcgamer.com/atlas-mmo-map/). Its just so boring and repetitive looking, and I get that its a pirate MMO so they don't want large landmasses, but could it kill them to have a decent amount of variety?

the biggest issue with the map is thatits made out of zones. each zone is a server capable of hosting 150 players. On each zone is 3-4 islands. If you would combine these 4 islands together they would be a size of around 10% of smallest official ark map. So I guess I dont need to go on where is the problem here when game is actually focused on farming resources on land.

I've been hearing some funny stories about this game:

1)Trying to transition between "zones" is dodgey as fuck. People have built a brand new boat with all their friends and tried to set sail only to enter a map which fills up as they are entering, which for some reason means the game just destroys their ship.

2)There's a gang of Chinese players that just roll around taking over maps and zerging anyone and everything on sight.

3)Dangerous animals spawn rates are through the roof. So people are saying they goto harvest some resources and are beset by 10 wolves and snakes the entire time.

I see it's the new hot topic, but didn't look like something I would have enjoyed or dove headlong into.
