skeeta Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 I think on hardcore I'd be tempted to stay well away from the water at the moment no matter how good my tames were. At least until I'd triple confirmed that this had been sorted out. I feel for you fella. So what you gonna do now? Lvl 95 is a long way to fall from.

Eventually when Ark gets to the mythical Beta phase, sometime in 2059, we might see balancing passes to broken dinos and mechanics. For now, "Insert generic catch-all about early access, how you signed up for it and how the devs are infallible". Realistically, unless you have no choice, avoid the water. The caves in particular. If you have to go in the water, use a Basil. Even a level 5 one is basically immune to the biggest terror of the oceans, Eels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeningWei Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 Damn making it to 95 on hardcore... That's a whole lot of stable server and connection right there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyLPY Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 After the eel was released, i would go in underwater caves only when I bring in Basilo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crows Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 This is so sad. Hardcore too? omg...... I have a topic about eels here if you care to take a look. They need to be nerfed AND fixed badly, as well as the squid - because small sea creatures like anglers, mantas, cindria and obviously eels get stuck in its head out of hitbox range, pinning the squid in its place.

Irk Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Ouch. My condolences to you, your friends and family. On a serious note, the direction WC is taking Ark isn't a direction I find enjoyable. While my loss last night wasn't as big as yours, losing an almost 300 argy because a lv. 10 thylacoleo pounced me, killed me, and everything else around us swarmed my argy to death, is incredibly annoying. Yes, he was on neutral with a JM saddle. You can't go too deep in the ocean without being stun locked to death by glitchy eels. You can't fly through/near the red woods because of thylacoleo's. You can't fly too close to the ground because of purlovias. You can't fly/move too slowly because of microraptors. Either add something that allows us to reliably counter this dismount/stun mechanic, or do away with it. It doesn't add a challenge. This game is about taming and using the strongest creatures we can find. Now they're ripping us off their backs and forcing us to battle without them. In a game created around taming things, this makes absolutely no sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you are solo or are on foot and need assistance, there is nevera good reason to have any tame on anything but passive. Your whole event would have been avoided.

A passive tame sitting in the middle of a group of aggressive dino's has a less likely chance to survive than one on neutral. Unless I'm missing something; mind sharing how a passive argy could've survived an attack from a carno and a thylacoleo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dracul Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Yeah I wanted to play hardcore and then I was like...... *Thinks back to all the times hes died from falling through the world, disconnected from the server, stuck between indestructable rocks, and countless issues with wild dinos glitching through walls or spawning inside bases....* nevermind. Hardcore can be fun, Hardcore solo on a game where death can come randomly through no faults of your own after countless hours of hard work? That sounds too much like real life to me.

Yup, I know. I was on another argy headed back. As soon as I got in to the redwoods area, it died. Being passive, like Xerxes mentioned, wouldn't have helped.
