Community Crunch 368: ASA Roadmap Update, ASA Comparison, and More!

Dang, no Aberration creature vote yet?

Called it. At the same time, though, I'm glad that they're not going to rush it.

Spoiler

this kinda sucks but its understandable

 

Delay was honestly expected. But, sure, it sucks I can't play earlier, but I'd rather have a functional game than a buggy one. Though there is surely some bugs to be expected lol

" it wouldn’t be feasible to complete Scorched Earth to a standard we’re happy with."

When have standards ever been a priority for WC?

"We had initially planned to ship with more content on Day One, but that won’t be happening, so we’re adjusting the launch price accordingly."

So basically "It was a mistake to mention the DLC being included within the standard price of ASA now we reduced that price by $5 but we will later charge $15 for each map moving forward unless we decide to hike the price"

I remain skeptical but am not surprised. Still a little pricey, sadly. Thanks for being transparent and, hopefully, honest about the updates. Take your time. I'd rather you delay it and make sure it works better than normal ARK than rush it out with a ton of bugs. Keep it up.

This really makes me very excited. They put a lot of effort into bringing a well-structured product. cool

 

Tengo 47 hrs en ark y no se domesticar un tapejata donde esta la wiki ark? Me dijeron que ahi sale muchas guías 

 it's going to be early access is that a joke? How can it possibly be early access? Is that because you know it's going to be broke as hell

"We know you’re excited, curious, and skeptical" Gee, I wonder why. Probably because we know you, and thus we know that the only things you reliably deal in are glitches and delays. So we are very, very skeptical.

 

Also, June 26th was last week, so unless we're getting a full year of 2x, you might want to fix that

 

While we're on the subject of fixing, make tropical crystal heirs able to lay eggs in the wyvern hive on Crystal Isles and enable crystal wyvern eggs as a taming food for basilisks; they spawn right next to the wyvern hive but won't take crystal eggs to be tamed. That's just very, very, very stupid

no es una ultra mejora pero esta bien,es bueno que mejoren aunque sea esto.

Yeah, where is the Abby creature vote?

Delay, told next to no info as always (no surprise), and they keep deflecting from showing anything gameplay-related. It doesn't matter if it's rough/incomplete/early stages, just show us something so we can have an idea of what's happening behind the scenes. All this "we'll show you right before ASA" and "more concept arts incoming" gives off the feeling that they're super behind schedule and have barely done anything, since that's what I've seen from other companies who pulled the same stuff over and over. If you have gameplay stuff to show, even if the release is delayed, just show your playerbase. Keep them hyped or make them even more hyped than they already were. Why all this secrecy? :')

I have been waiting to send my submission for all week and we can’t even start the Abberation vote yet! That sucks.

This makes me hate my life even more. 

 

SE VE VIEN ESPERO QUE LE METAN ALGO NUEVO PARA FARMIAR SIN DINOS POR FAVOR 

No BS Translation: We are priming you to the notion that we need more time to "remaster" stuffs and the whole ASA will be available on December 2023 or at a later date.

Is this weekend evo event the same as last weekend? You guys didn't change any of the dates. You might want to check on that.

Oh I'm glad it's being postponed, that was to be expected.
That SE comes out later, perfect.
Better to put more effort than to quickly make some junk.

The comparison this time is not so seriously different, but here too I'm glad that the parts are revised.

Thanks Wildcart for making the effort to make ASA a great game.
I hope that it succeeds as they intend.

About the small discount I am of course very happy.

Since day 1 I knew it would be delayed, 4 months to complete a port that needs to remake the game? HA

How are we supposed to even stay interested in the game now? we get no ASA trailers, Ark 2 honestly should be scrapped and then the animated series that may aswell be nonexistent.

 

not a shocker so getting a buggy game a delayed game again XD no asa gameplay no ark 2 gameplay no nothing what a huge cash grab

Why do I see them making us pay for the ASA DLCs?

Did people not see this coming? It was so obvious lmao

Que pena que se atrasara , pero si es para bien y no tenga muchos errores está bien

Y bueno ya quiero que sea octubre para poder jugarlo

Nah man, when did they say you need to buy the DLC separately again ?

 

They simply reduced the price (by 15~20$ overall IIRC from 59.99$ to 39.99$ at start) overall for Early Access Period and the price will be going to full price at the end of Early Access Period, it's similar to ARK Survival Evolved, when i originally bought it in 2015 it was cheaper, after early access ended, it become more expensive.

 

the DLCs are still included in the package otherwise they would mention it here.
