@Elric Why are you mad at my rank? It just means I've put time into this forum helping people. You can do the same if you put the effort in.

Just saying, if you have a rank like that - it makes it seem like you are an important part of this community. Like you said, you put the time into the forum "helping people". Then you read this post of an obviously frustrated new player, and your response is:

"You can't get away from toxic people. They are all around you. If you don't notice that, it's because YOU'RE the toxic one."

See, that to me does not strike me as something a helpful member of the community would say. That sounds like someone who posts just to cause drama, and is quite the opposite of helpful. I'd expect that kind of behavior from a troll. Not a dedicated member of a new (but growing) community.

Yeah, that is true I suppose. I still think the game has a lot of potential, so I'll wait until it's closer to release and give it another try. For me personally - not having access to any player-crafted buildings is a big drawback. Being able to build a house or a player city / community is one of the huge draws of this game IMO.

Yep, thanks for proving my point Pwnstar. If you're a TF#10-Consul and this rude to new players... Enjoy your empty game.

If you are still looking for unclaimed land, check far NW:

Thanks Razvan! I wish someone helpful like you had been around last night. Instead the new players were all told to go to the NE corner of the starting area we were in... Literally nothing available up there. I definitely wasn't interested in running an hour or two in another direction, so I just called it a night.

I knew it was a free Alpha test, so I wasn't expecting much... However, my 1 hour in the game was frustrating and pointless. I started out messing with gathering / crafting and some PvE. That part was alright, but going any farther was a waste of time. Literally every single plot on the map is taken. I ran for 40+ minutes and did not see a single open plot of land to test any of the player housing and building mechanics. Meanwhile, all I see in chat is a bunch of kids trolling new players. People would ask where there were open plots, so trolls would suggest spots that were open - and then laugh when people got there to find all the spots taken. Fun stuff.

Why have an open Alpha test if every single plot on the map is already taken? This means no new players can even test a major part of the game. On the bright side, I'm glad I ran into the toxic community and gameplay issues before I invested any money into the game. It's just disappointing, because I thought this game had an insane amount of potential.
