They have way more gigas that spawn, and way more of those that spawn are way above the level of the single giga that spawns every now and then on the Island. It's in no way fair to pin the Island up against the Center. I've worked too hard to lose everything I have just because the odds are against me.

You have started a systematic server wipe, 12 hours at a time. With no items limits, or dino limits in transfers this is the end for a lot of us. This is turning into a massacre We may be in trouble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VDD have 100+ players 10+ islands servers and guess what, they have my server targeted, I'm not going to give them the chance to offline raid me so I'm de-spawning my base and hoping onto another game. You could use the last of your base to raptored their home servers up and you can use battlemetrics to know wich one they are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AsunaTheNewGuys Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 16 minutes ago, ZulunSurvives said: So you guys plays on PVP servers and dont want war? Only to sit on the safety of your base and being "alpha tribes" and controlling your little world where no one can grow there unless you decide to allow it. Where's the pvp there? I see a world of opportunity and fun there. Will love to see 2 "alpha tribes" fighting each other , and not knowing so well the terrain and map or even who are its enemies as they do on their own homeland. Lets be honest, when you get to the top the game ends until the next event with dodorex/dodowyvern. To bring cross servers Wars will bring a new level of war and power dispute. Of course some tribes will annihilate others but it is what happends all the times when someone trys to grow on your server. The thing Im worried about is only the server player cap. Being locked out while some tribe swarms yours. Thats a real problem. I think war is great, Islands should war with one another, but pinning the Center against the Island is completely unfair, the Center has way more spawns and numerous high level giga spawns when only 1 giga spawns on the island, and usually at a low level. Islands don't stand a chance against Center servers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzie Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 Well time to buy overwatch, going to enjoy looking at the server pops in 2 weeks time after every pvp server is wiped . Even pve servers will suffer from troll tribes transferring pillars over and foundation bombing the maps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mleii Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 On the heat map, what are the dark rectangular areas around swamps? Is it just that fewer things spawn there or is something else going on around those areas? RE The exploits and such, it seems well handled for the PC, the Xbox seems to have some limitations at least as far as Dedicated Servers go. Will we be able to get better ways for Admins to keep trolls and exploiters and griefers away? Right now it seems there are some bugs or limitations in how the admins can block users. It seems to either crash when they try to ban or the bans don't seem to take effect when the server crashes for other reasons or is restarted after updates. Even if the user is not a friend of the server gamer tag they can join via another user that is. And thanks for the updates and listening. While not everyone is going to be happy with the changes, the changes seem reasonable so far. We'll have to see how they play out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperNasty Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 The game has a big issue with behemoth tribes flooding a server and offline raiding people. Previously this was limited to what they could build before being discovered, or by what they could build up and transfer from SE servers. Now they can steamroll through servers with the only limitation being they have to wait 12 hours between server wipes. The options for PvP will be; join a trans-server tribe, or be wiped by one, or both. Is that how you survive the Ark? Additionally you've taken away the individuality of the different maps. SE was fun because for older players it was a challenge. You had to start again with hand tools and worrying about elemental damage etc. There were also limitations to SE like having dinos with favoured kibble not available(argies) this meant going back to meat taming. Now you can move your imprinted gigas and war quetzals over and instantly be set up, no different to your home server. You're going to lose a lot of old players, and new players are going to find it even more difficult than before to start. Consider delaying this function, reading some of the comments here and on other platforms, and then re-assess whether it's really the direction you want Ark to go.

Your tribe can now go to the center and farm some dino to defend and fight back as they do go to yours.Or both of you can go to SE and farm some explosives and wyverns. We are dealing with equal opportunities. The only 2 walls are: Server POP cap and the DLC, what is cheap. And if you want to be competitive in any game you must have it all, not only a part.

It forced you to either have a warring server or a good strong allied community. KISS IT GOODBYE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlorianX Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 @Jat i felt pushed to play on mostly dead playee dedi already but even more so now. i was desperately waiting for proc jen official server but with this free roam transfer and the plague that is the wiping of server by key tribes.. makes me want to play even less than before. hell i feel i almost cannot now.. many games PUNISH griefers. you have essentially replaced their gun with a nuke on a 12 hour build timer.. cheers for that.. PLEASE consider opening locked no transfer servers for those of us not wanting to take a brutal *** pounding and having to say thanks in the process.. I am genuinely gutted really. i love ark.. i want to love it more.. but the more you mess with the problem makes it lesa desirable..

TehCheese Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 Quote Complete transfer of Items, Tames and Survivors through all MAPS on the Official ARK Network (separated by game mode). Do you have any idea how many servers you've just killed? You had a serious problem that the community wanted you to address, and you just spat in their face.

Chele Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 I really think this is a mistake. Yes, it allows people to take the hard work that they've done on one server and compete on another. But there need to be some limitations. Perhaps instead of making every ark transferable, tie existing servers together into more of the clusters that you've already started? That way you get the cross map transfer but don't open up every single map to the tribes that want to wipe out every community there is. PVP is all well and good, but no one likes to come home to see that the projects they've been working on for the last 6 months have been destroyed by a bunch of trolling jerks. Offline raiding is real and it is effective. Please seriously take into consideration the concerns of the player base on this one. The thought of every massive tribe being able to just flood our server and kill off bloodlines that we spent months breeding makes me sick to my stomach.
