Ah yes, but my “base” is an entirely different story.
At least you don’t have to be worried about in-basespawn purge. ![]()
These are examples of literal foundation spam.
I’m really interested to know what that clan’s building count is.
This might bebthe best anology of the ToS. Great post.
The ToS are pretty clear and sensible interpretation would suggest any bases that compromise server function, block build, or cause other players to experience significant lag and the like can result in censure or banning.
Much of the limit is to ‘outward spread’ and not ‘upward spread’. Though building up and not out may still cause lag, spreading out all over a place, though it may not block strategic locations, etc, it certainly affects resources, spawns, etc., which affect all other players on that server.
Do you know why the player mentioned is spreading their base so widely? It certainly would affect their lag and gameplay. It also makes it harder to defnd against a purge.
Funcom decisions have to be to the greater good of all the players on a server or servers. They have to be careful not to appear biases and therefore treat the ‘nice looking’ sprawling base the same as the blobk’build spam bases. They have to. It would be unfair discrimination otherwise.
I have seen large and very well designed bases on Private servers that have not led to bannings. This is because Admins usually moderate base building. Streamers often showcase huge bases that they have placed on their Solo game or on Private servers. Your acquiaintance could do the same.
Lastly, the rest of the players always have the option of targetting such an obvious target - one of the biggest risks on Offical servers. What a shame to build huge and then to have some strategically placed firebombs demolish the core?
Old graphic cards don’t do RTX (ray tracing) well. That is why there is a light limit on the card, not just defined in the game.
Under RTX, you can create as many lights as you want.
Greetings @Archivist!
I believe this has been answered, so, yes, it is reportable.
Will it be demolished by moderators? Maybe, it depends, no one knows, there is a chance
.
The fact that subjective words like
are part of the TOS leaves everyone at the mercy of the criteria of the moderator who checks a reported building.
There is no objective argument like “number of placeables”, or “number of blocks” allowed.
Games should restrict you (like they did with Thralls) so you do not need to worry about things like this and focus on playing and enjoying the game.
Good luck (you are going to need it)!

The forum is not the correct venue for this as such discussions often lead to misleading and/or speculative information.
Thanks for understanding.
