Im done.

Personally I'm finding this world to be much worse on in these first few days because there's just people fucking everywhere. Like no matter where you decide to place your claim there's about 5 other people/groups within a 10-20 minutes walking distance away. Security by obscurity doesn't work when everyone spawns on the central continent and there's no where you can go that isn't combed over by people. Kind of sucks as a hermit because trying to rush a palisade is hard to do when you got to count on essentially 24-36 hours of hoping no one comes in to steal your shit before you get a non-easily destroyable wall up.

But I'll power through for now.

Skill issue. Just go to a cave and rush a claim, is that too hard?

Imagine setting down roots in a fucking cave instead of traveling out of the Ring.

I don't mind the more crowded start, but I do notice that my cave away from water with no signs of activity on the outside or near the entrance gets a surprising number of visitors. They were kind enough to let my claim dry, but once my leather is complete I'm getting out of here. "Just go into a cave" is no longer a guarantee of safety.

Oh, I don't deny that at all. I just hate people and want to be away from them!

>hates people and wants to isolate himself
>plays mmorpg

Lmao dude, go play some animal crossing or smth. Also, skill issue. BE the people you hate.
But I kinda agree on the new spawn thing, it's lame.

Spawning everyone on thingwalls was wack, basically you need to scout a location when ton of people are doing the same thing, starting from the same point as you, and then, you need to protect it for 8 hours after building it (so let's say around 10 hours). Tbh this spawning thing is fucked for any player that doesn't play in a group that is able to defend their claim until the morning (So basically rushing rage and like 10 uac on multiple characters and then staying up all night).

Devs should've told players how the spawning would work instead of leaving it out and having each group freak out when they realize they spawn near a thingwall with other people spawning right on it too.
According to the public map there are no other continents discovered yet so idk if there are actually any, or is it all a huge pangea with islands around, but if there are other continents players could choose to leave the main continent through a whirlpool.

I haven't had any problems despite living one minimap away from the Thingwall. Maybe it depends on which Thingwall.

I liked the start being around thingwalls on what seems to be a specific continent. Got on a few minutes after the server started, there was a guy offering to carve up boats for people who only had a few of them bashed by randos, and a surprising amount of "What is a thingwall?" questions.

Found a whirlpool and escaped the continent, and spent the first day just filling out my map and finding just about no signs of life where I am now, its great.

[faslger]

too many people around i dont care about PvP but i just got raided when i have nothing besides honeycomb so i guess playing as a hermit is just gone?????? i traveled like 2 hours from the thing wall but i see people passing by all the time.

I'm a hermit and things are still going relatively smoothly. Took a bit longer than usual to find an initial place to settle, but two (cave) claims in completely different locations dried without issue. Of course, my leather hasn't finished processing yet so it's too early to celebrate, but it definitely does still seem feasible.

The problem is that your play experience is almost entirely decided on luck in terms of if you ended up near people who have no qualms about raiding and destroying other bases versus people who just mind their own business and leave others alone. It's not like the entire world is filled with one or the other so I wouldn't be surprised to hear of success stories here or there. But I do think the "average" hermit experience this world is going to be much lower quality than previous worlds.
