    Okay that's just annoying. 15 dollars for a map isn't bad, 15 dollars for a bunch of skins is just not worth it.

    Another thing we used to get for free and that will now cost money. Add it to the pile.
    You do realize that this stuff was supposed to be promotional material for your animated series, yes ? Do people usually ask to pay for being walking ads ? In a world where people can have access to any cosmetic they want on Curseforge, most of them for free, how well do you expect this to go ?

    15 bucks in this game used to get you a whole brand new themed map with new mechanics, new weapons, and new creatures. Nowadays, you just get skins I guess... iT's OnLy FiFtEeN dOlLaRs!1!1

    Well this means every creature gets a costume slot now I hope? I've no interest in the skins but the ability to have costumes on creatures that couldn't have them before is good news.

     

     

    (also hooray for Dracoteuthis making it onto arkpocalypse!)

    79 Skins in total! A bit on the pricey side, considering how easy these Skins would be to make, and I do wish we were getting more Survivor Skins, but all things considered, a definite step up from the Power Rangers packs imho.

    Hmm 3x is that for guilt? I was under the impression that the servers 💩 couldn't handle any more than 2x... or at least that's what we were told

     

    Anyways pay no mind to the broken stuff and come see the skins you can buy!

    If the ballot was ever rigged, then we would have never gotten Gigantoraptor or Dreadnoughtus in the first place.

    So nothing but issues on your game and servers, not a single mention of what's happening and how you're going to mitigate it... Just buy this, or this or this. What a joke

    We also wouldn't have gotten The Carbon Copy of the concavenator that is Fasolasuchus, and the obnoxious glider that is Yi... They are 100% rigged, you're not going to convince me otherwise until WC disqualifies the megaraptor and issues multiple public apologies.

    Here's an idea, how bout you folks work on the maps we were promised and stop adding more and more dinos to a game riddled with them already? Every time you do, you cause other dinos to become obsolete. I mean I get it, Snail ran you all out of money and you are trying to find clever ways to get out of the red but dang it, can't you just deliver what you said you would first?

    This community is smart enough to see what's happening, they are also smart enough to know that Lost Colony isn't about "filling in some gaps in the lore" it's a money grab.  I feel for the studio and I feel for anyone else caught up in the Snail Games mess, but dang it, it would be nice just to see all of our regular maps come back before Snail makes another lovely decision to invest in Electric Aircraft manufacturing or something and everything goes belly up.

    $15 dollars for skins?! With all the crap that has been happening with servers being down, structures & dinos decayed, and characters lost we should be getting this for FREE!

    Wait. $15 for the animated skin pack? Why. 

    They're more of a novel advertisement of the animated series which you need a subscription to watch. 

     

    That's not the type of skins I would drop money on. I want to see things along the lines of the old archeology skins like brachi/Bronto,

    More paid-for DLCs 😞
    Not for me.

    Please fix the bug that causes loss of characters when transferring maps and improve the performance.
    Oh, and fix the crash that happens when tabbing out of the game on Windows.

    If I were you I would just work on the basic game so that the game runs smoothly as you promised months ago, the game is full of errors and every time those fixes and the servers that crash automatically you get sick of it, now focus on the basics so that the game runs smoothly in every map and the old Ark lovers come back, your concept is super fun but a game that crashes every time Bluescreen, blackScreen, time-out loading, server crashes, startup problems with black screen on the PlayStation5, high PING every day, which is sometimes so high that the entire server crashes for 30 minutes I don't call that a new version and this has been going on for months and nothing is fixed, I have already sent 5 tickets with errors but no response, your studio has the motto: Just play games and if you don't like it then play something else we won't fix anything period. You gamers drop by so much % every month that's a shame but I don't think you care. but we have to pay for updates and other crazy skins that won't fix the game errors, first the basic game system server, then fun stuff. do something with it with the tips I give you or ignore it as always.
