A growing coalition of players raises questions about the profitability of investing in Atlas Earth. Recent forum discussions bring conflicting strategies and earnings to light, as many weigh the effort against financial returns in this evolving game.
The Parcel Earnings Breakdown
Most players achieve only average parcel counts, with few exceeding them. Players report varying returns from common to legendary parcels. Notably, achieving the Explorer’s Club for $550 each year remains the highest potential investment. This gets players 420 parcels (42,000 AB) and four legendary upgrades annually.
User Insights on Earnings
One player stated, "I bring in $492 a year, but I need to watch 22 ads daily. While that's profitable, it requires a lot of effort." Another shared, "I make about $55 per month without spending any cash, just using rent income from the game." F2P players rarely generate significant income, reinforcing that investment is often required for a meaningful return.
Boost Events: A Game Changer?
Atlas Earth’s super boost events every two weeks offer a massive 50× boost for about 32 hours, while daily boosts range from 2× to 30× based on player activity and region. The opportunity to convert cash into additional AB—up to 33 AB per dollar—raises the stakes for investment.
The Reality of Free-to-Play Strategies
F2P players experience slower earnings, averaging about 1,792 AB per year from the free pass and 3,528 AB from challenge rewards. Several forum voices this struggle, emphasizing the challenge of making meaningful profits. Curiously, one said they hit $600 in just under two years while remaining F2P. However, another noted, "It's not a good idea to be F2P unless you're constantly grinding for free AB."
Key Strategies for Maximizing Returns
Common strategies for players looking to maximize earnings entail reaching the +10% boost at 150 parcels. Users with over 151 parcels notice slower progression in non-SRB, but can still benefit from SRB progression. Those earning around $355/year can reinvest into more parcels; approximately every $3 earned translates to one parcel. "In short, the more money you spend, the faster you can make more money."
"The Explorer’s Club isn’t time-efficient, but it’s still the best deal available."
Key Insights
🚀 Players’ annual earnings can range from $15 to $492 based on their investment and strategy.
