Even IF there is a wipe there will be people who will go back to playing. Yeah it gets frustrating that your time is "wasted" but is it really if you enjoyed the game? Again wipe PvP if you need to, leave PvE alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b0ender Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 I would like to hear some statement from dev's about if there will be wipe or not. Especially on PVE, All this wipe threads seem to be about dupping on PVP. I would leave PVE out of it. I just want to know if I should stop grinding-breeding until game relases and servers get wiped, and then start over, or there will be no wipe on PVE I can continue with my stuff. Because I just don't find it smart to breed or build anymore, this game is extremely grindy and boring, but when you finally get all the stats connected it's great award for all the work and it's all worth it, problem is there is no award if servers get wiped.

That's not happeneing; every PvE server I spawned in to (meaning the servers I visited, not every server on the list) in the hour and a half of me picking servers led to me being spawn trapped in someones base, unable to get far enough inland as a low level in order to build a hut, unable to build remotely near character spawns, etc. PvE has a huge problem; all the players that have been around for a while aren't going anywhere, and this leaves no room for new players. PvE needs a wipe, and it needs more structural limits. A handful of players shouldn't make it impossible to play on a server with bunches of pillars and foundations.

It's not place nor a time for me to state my opinions on ark PVP. I'l just say that It's so broken, in so many ways.. I could write entire book about it, I will stick to PVE, until some BIG changes happen in pvp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OGCookies Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 100% agree no PvE wipe if there is a wipe most PvE players play for one of two reasons either no interest in fighting other people or they don't want what they've accomplished to be lost, yeah it's just a game and It's fun while things are being accomplished but we're talking 3000+ hours of time spent which is a lot for people who have real jobs not just YouTube streamers who get to sit home all day and pay their bills by talking about games or whatever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you tried that or are you one of the unfortunate people that wasn't able to get in? If you were then I understand. Hopefully consoles get a lot more servers. one other thing. I would actually suggest no tame servers, atleast to try it. It can be pretty fun actually Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sphere Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Stricter build limits, like you know, putting no build zones on major metal spawn zones, and at beaver spawns. That would go miles. Right now on 166, I have to have those areas pillared for the sake of the rest of the server. People actually thank me that there is metal on the server because of those pillars. People pretend that pillars are always a bad thing. Having no metal spawns because a newbie built there, or a troll decided to raid your PvE server with junk on your metal spawns, and then routinely visits to keep timers up, is a bad deal for any server.

Sphere Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Or somebody makes it their mission to DDOS all servers because the game was wiped and they lost all their hardcore stuff. People already DDOS to cheat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think anyone complains about a tribe pillaring off resource spawns. When people mention pillar spamming, they're talking about the tribes that build a small hut and proceed to block off enough land to support 3-4 tribes. It's situations like these that need to be addressed. 3 minutes ago, OGCookies said: And if u think PvE server are bad now let's see how they are when 1000s of pissed off people make it their daily mission to ruin servers because they lost their stuff Let's get real; no one's going to do that.

Wiping PvE servers either fully or partially, and introducing stricter build limits to prevent the current pillar/foundation/structure spam, the players that are screaming about their hours are going to do one of two things: Quit Restart If those players are so worried about wasted time, it makes zero sense that they'd waste more time just trying to troll a server they were wiped from.
