You can only blame yourself if you sit in front of your pc looking at a character in a base for hours! I guess I'm going to have to skip tillit hits, because I can't provision myself for waiting and I can't afford to lose something big because of a patch hit mid day without warning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean if I didn't have to get up and be to work at a certain time, well I would just lay in bed all day, except I wouldn't because I would be playing Ark all day! So some friends of mine and I have a server that we often play on! It's a great server, fun people, very real with each other, lots of things to do, just a joy to be on. Well we had planned that on the 30th day of March 2017 we would be down for a bit while Ark updated, knowing that this is a massive update, it kind of changes our Ark-Lives (they matter)! So we waited, and waited for the update, then came the twitter message that it would be delayed until 12 EST the following day. Well poop I went to bed. Now here we sit at 3:04 CST and no update. So we're pissed and you know what we're going to about it, we're going to download that poop and reset the server as soon as it updates, which may be never but we will sit and wait. Thanks for not updating as you said you would. I kinda think you suck right now. Thank you for your time and god bless... FYI: They rarely announce when the patch will go live, they rather announce an ETA - an estimate when they think they are ready. In my experience, these rough estimates are generally very optimistic and you shouldn't expect them to live up to them, especially if it has already been delayed 3 times (that usually means they want to release it ASAP but as you can see, it doesn't exactly work out). I agree that they could be a bit more open about the fact that it's just an ETA (if you just read over it it seems like a fixed date and you might think they already have the patch ready) - almost 2 years later people still get annoyed about it.

I know, it was more out of joking frustration of how we feel and the fact that no matter how angry people say they are that at the end of the day we'll be back.

Other games, books, movies - you name it. Also, just got a steam message about the patch. Might be going live any second! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last update we got in this thread was from Chris I think.

You can only blame yourself if you sit in front of your pc looking at a character in a base for hours! But, but, but..... I WANT IT NOW! Yes, every single solitary update including the little ones that make you log off for two minutes, they are never on time. Never have been, so if you just stop expecting it to be "on time" then you won't be disappointed. The only real thing this affects is breeding/taming and boss battles when it comes to having to download a large update. So shame on you Wild Card for yet again raptoring over your fan base with little or no regard for anyone's time schedule when trying to navigate game mechanics that YOU CREATED!!! FFS, get your poop together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is tru tho is I dc or anny one else want to log on they wil not have acsess before the server is restarted. And that wil be a problem for manny other players that plays on private hosted server that they wil not be able to log on before the server is restatet and updated. So when they sett a time limmit the owners off private server cud log on and restart ther server, tho when they push the update like this for manny houers pp get a litte upsett off waiting and maybe go to bed or do other stuff.

Kind of comes with the territory though, If you are going to play on a privately hosted server, you have to expect things like this. As a server owner/admin with a full time job and a 4 month old baby sometimes you just have to look at the big picture. Things will be perfectly fine if you can't login to your server for a few hours....You can't please everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dracul Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Sense they felt the need to delete the other threads (cause they were about the video, thats about this patch, ergo this thread was priority?) Are we ever going to get non-tek tiered aquatic bases? Especially concerning primitive and prim+ servers? Will normal primitive servers ever get a thecenter? Will Sally meet Harry? Wait.....strike that one. Will Primal Survival be a SOTF reskin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
