  • Community Crunch 98: Gold Master Edition

    Hey, Survivors! Welcome to the latest edition of the Community Crunch! :Jerbhi:

    We've got some critical news to share with you all today; it's going to be a roller coaster of emotions as there's a bit of disappointing news, but worry not as you've got a lot to look forward to as well!

    large.593ee5f2e7eda_BaseGame.jpg

    Let's address the mammoth in the room. Official Release. As of today, ARK has completed its Gold Master and certification for retail release. This process took a little longer than expected and as a result, our release date has been pushed back to August the 29th. We're deeply apologetic for those who were negatively affected by the delay; it sucks, it wasn't what we had wanted, nor planned but where we currently stand. We wanted to address this sooner but did not want to make any statements until we were completely sure of what was going to happen.

    Now you're probably wondering what this means for the next few weeks and how does it change our current plans?

    Free DLC: Ragnarok

    large.ARK_RagnarokTitle.png

    Ragnarok's new release date on console and upcoming PC update will now also be the 29th of August. This extended time will allow further development of the map and you guys can expect a gigantic update, even bigger than we initially thought.

    On the date of release, the overground of the world will increase by approximately one quarter, which is near-enough a 'TheIsland-sized' expansion; the update will feature new biomes, a coastal Wyvern canyon, an epic boss encounter, new engrams, and something secret the Ragnarok team are cooking up! We will also be adding their custom creatures to our main game, which will allow players to transfer them via the CrossARK system, so you'll be able to bring over your Ice Wyverns to The Island, The Center, and Scorched Earth!

    Development plans: immediate, mid-month, and going forward.

    large.574f502aa1cfc_EntertheDragon.jpg

    Over the next few weeks, you will see a lot of priority placed on the PC and multiplayer versions of the game, now that we're completely wrapped up with our gold master. We are planning some immediate patches to take care of community concerns, as well as some mid-month goals and more going forward.

    First of all, there will be a lot of focus on PC Performance this month (don’t worry console-users, you’ll be receiving these updates too!). We will be porting over a lot of the improvements we made on console, as well as working with our industry partners to bring up that PC performance to get you the best possible experience.

    Secondly, we will be immediately (as I type this the engineers and gameplay programmers are working on the update) showing some love to these aspects of the game:

    Multiplayer Bosses; let's face it, they're ridiculous, we know why and we're going to fix it. You'll soon be able to enter the boss arenas and fight bosses at reasonable difficulty, it'll still be a challenge, just no longer a monumental/near-impossible task.

    The Baby-to-Juvie-Stasis issue; that's also getting fixed. For those not familiar, this is the problem where baby-creatures are entering stasis which (sort of) prevents them from ageing, and therefore they're not eating from troughs which result in death.

    The Center & Under the Mesh; we're going to be implementing a technical solution to stop jerks from going under the map and raiding people. This one will take a little bit longer, but we'll have it in as soon as possible.

    That's not all though! We will be releasing a major version update in the middle of the month which will significantly assist with DDoS mitigation, resolve the exploit which has allowed players to dupe, and of course not to be forgotten, but allow players to rent PC-dedicated Console Servers! We're also going to create an option to stop creatures from following you with their big heads (we'd do this one sooner, but it requires a major version update, so we thought it best come with the other significant changes mentioned above :p).

    Not to mention, we'll be taking care of server crash-exploits as and when they happen, working on server performance so that you will have a smoother and stable experience.

    Thank you so much for your patience the past few months and all the support! We will make sure that ARKs launch is a successful one and the game is in a healthy state. It's going to be a hectic few weeks ahead, and we're very excited! We still have a lot more planned for ARK, and even after release, the journey will continue!

    The Procedurally Generated Map system allows players to make their own ARK maps by determining a myriad of landscape options from the heights of mountains, depths of valleys, and the number of lakes, rivers or oceans, to the kinds of each biome they want, and more!

    @Jat Where is the ANSEL portion? Not a single sentence as to why it isn't included? 4 weeks of no contest, no response via the email I sent, and you don't seem to care about your ANSEL entrants, despite it being the most entered, I am sure there are 100+ images piled up right now

    Been sending in the links weekly...as you had told us to explicitly to do so on Page 2, love false advertising/promises :/ Almost as much as I love 0 communication on this ongoing memory leak  since 1 month, making the game unplayable more than 15 minutes without hitting 100% memory

    Hmm, my apologies about that. I had made a response to the thread in regards to the Ansel contests right beneath the post, as well as a link to the Digest thread again but I guess it didn't pass, maybe because I had unhidden the thread and made the post whilst it was invisible, anyhow we had decided to do Ansel next week as there were quite a few links which were expired, but we'll be picking extra winners/handing out extra prizes in order to make up for the missed crunches.

    It's still being worked on, but unfortunately, it's not a simple fix as I've mentioned previously. I don't really have an update to share beyond that, but once I do, I will let you know.

    I'll need to gather more information on this and work with an engineer to see if we can reproduce it. Mind making a bug report about it and linking it back to me?

    The delays are getting very old. I was already losing faith in you guys when you delayed the expansion the first time. I get that it will be good when we get it, but that is if we get it. I dont have any confidence in your ability to release major updates on time. I get that you are a small team, but if you cant stick to deadlines, dont lie to your fans about it. Not a good business practice. You guys were my favorite devs, but this just tarnished that opinion.

    I feel emotionally spent. I feel like everything posted was overshadowed by the pushback. @Jat Anyway, to get some clarification, will I be able to use my own PC to setup a dedicated xbox server for console, instead of using rental servers from other companies?

    Edit: Also, I'm doing an Ark animation, in flash. For the Ark video section, are flash animation cartoons allowed? Even if you said "whatever inspires you", I like clarification. I'm nitpicky.

    Two reasons why this embarrassment of a launch attempt will lose you a quarter of your player base.

    1)Your exposing how poorly ran this company is during a time where some real competition (Dark and Light) is emerging. Notice how literally every major content creator for Ark is transitioning to this much more polished, promising, and most importantly fresh new game.

    2)The majority of your player base is KIDS, kids who will be returning to school during the exact time your game is "releasing". You missed your window Jat. A very disappointing and laughable performance by both you and your team. 

    See you on Dark and Light everyone!

    Well for starters it seems video game companies forget who the customers are and it's our fault as gamers for buying games and putting up with stuff like this due to a pretty limited market of good video games. I sure hope no one at this company ever goes to buy something and is forced to wait for food or service because now you know how your customers feel, frustrated, disappointed, and embarrassed for pre ordering the special edition. Second real cute choosing not to mention how you chose to not mention unpopular things in your patch notes like the tether distance slider disappearing from console without a word said in any of the multiple posts about the update or many questions on the forums. Thanks for being upfront haha. Thirdly I play this game every Friday night until 2-3 am this Friday we quit at 1030. With all the glitches bugs and the tether slider being gone it's not fun anymore. You can't just leave something as part of a game for over a month so we get accustomed to the way it is then take it. It's become unbearable without it. I hope next time you remove something like this as quickly as possible because all having it that long reinforced was that it worked fine with it and without it I don't want to even play it. Thanks a lot. Forth pushing a release date back a  two weeks ahead of the actual release??!? Wow whoever is in charge needs to sit down and take a look in the mirror and tell them self to be a boss and figure out how long stuff takes. Wouldn't it have been better to complete the game at a later date with a less aggressive deadline and be done early and add really small easy stuff for fun or to hold people over up to release day? Lastly clean up you act and be professional. A lot of your moderators and employees get short or downright rude with people here and on twitter it's pathetic unprofessional and uncalled for. Hold your temper, yes people are upset but the only reason they come here or twitter is to check on the game you made that they love that's where there emotion comes from. I just want to clarify that this is not meant to be mean or disrespectful these are my true opinions of what I think of your game and company and since I'm canceling my preorder do to my utter disappointment in all the events that have taken place that I have listed I thought now would be a good time to voice my thoughts since I will be no longer fearing retaliation by anyone associated with the forum since I will be most likely no longer caring. Thanks for the fun while it shortly lasted and good luck releasing a week before destiny 2 your going to need it.

    I highly doubt you ever made a game. My friend and I made a small 2d platformer. We thought of releasing it after a week. 1.5 months later we discontinued it. Every bug you fix creates more bugs and wildcard isn't a big studio like EA and Ubisoft. Or do you want the game to be made like EA would? Take out content so it's "finished" on time and then serve everything else as overpriced DLC. If they don't take their time it will be a flop like No Man Sky because they rushed it due to people being impatient. Even big companies like Rockstar delay games. Red Dead Redemption 2 was delayed from begin 1017 to fall 2018. So the only disgusting practice here is complaining that a small game dev team takes their time to make their game good. So unless you want it to be bad, stop complaining.

    The delay imo is the right choice. If they had released the game in its current state as a "finished game" on the 8th, new players would be demanding refunds left and right with the game like it currently is. You'd see a No Man's Sky release all over again. They need more time for a game of this magnitude. Personally I feel bad for Jat and Jen, always having to be the bearer of bad news. It should really be Jeremy and Jesse imo. They'll just hide behind twitter which is cowardly tbh. I have no respect for them. They just need to take their time with patches and test them multiple times before releasing them.

    Just want to show my support since there have been a lot of hate by some people. Good luck guys. PS next time you could put the release date about 2 weeks later then you expect it to be and then you can release it earlier. It would be good or the imago ;). PSS I hate Dark and Light so I will keep with ARK no matter what

    @Jat Where is the ANSEL portion? Not a single sentence as to why it isn't included? 4 weeks of no contest, no response via the email I sent, and you don't seem to care about your ANSEL entrants, despite it being the most entered, I am sure there are 100+ images piled up right now

    @Wolf Angelus We have the same problem, @Jat doesn´t answer on our e-mails for weeks, although there is a lot to clarification. We asked for example if the Community Crunches were removed an if we will see no more and what about the prizes... Because of this we finished our participation yet.

    I highly doubt you ever made a game. My friend and I made a small 2d platformer. We thought of releasing it after a week. 1.5 months later we discontinued it. Every bug you fix creates more bugs and wildcard isn't a big studio like EA and Ubisoft. Or do you want the game to be made like EA would?

    1017 to 2018? It better be magnificent if they spent over a thousand years creating it.

    I'M okay with the release being delayed, take as long as you need. One thing I do not understand the slightest of is that here in Denmark, the release is nowhere near set to the 29th of August. It says the 31st of March 2018. I would just like to know if it's going to be the 29th all over the world or just in some parts of the world.
