Zaviel Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 It has become increasingly popular lately to grief wyvern nests so no new eggs spawn all throughout the map. What players have been doing is looting the egg nest, then dropping the egg mid-air beside the nest, yet out of range to be picked up. Doing this prevents new eggs for spawning for a long time unless cleared. There are several ways to combat this currently: take a Quetz into the scar and pick them up(and hope you can outrun a wyvern,) or use a whip to pick the egg up. Whips do work most of the time but sometimes they glitch and refuse to pick anything up. This is very poor behavior with the sole purpose of ruining the game for other people. I won't point any fingers but 9 times of 10 people that do this are named 123 or [][][][][]. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volunteer Moderator ThzNutz Posted August 1, 2017 Volunteer Moderator Share Posted August 1, 2017 agreed, cant even guess how many eggs we've cleaned up.

Xenithar Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 I see this as an easy fix. If a player drops one in mid-air, check for ground below the egg. If none is there (ie: floating) then remove the egg. Another, messier option would be to make the eggs fall and if they hit ground from high up, they break. Both methods would allow eggs to respawn, but would require code. Or we could, you know, get active admins on the servers and ban the griefers.

Cataclisto Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 I know people who used to do this, back then they at least dropped them out of range if the egg wasn't any good, were too lazy to eat it. Only solution I can possibly think of is some sort of incubation machine for SE to use the wyvern eggs in since you cant make them expire fast due to raising them or do anything to change their timers without something to compensate everyone. If this is added then you could make them expire in a few min to avoid griefing on SE (also hatching them is a joke anyway with the heat requirements) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ephtek Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 I feel like the boxboxbox players that do this in pve tried griefing on pvp and got wrecked, so they grief on pve server where no 1 can wipe them. this mentality is the lowest of low.

iStephano Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 I see it to on the server I play, it's really annoying make its impossible to find eggs. Devs need to change this to combat that issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loui Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 It's sad because eating it is way better anyway, you don't even need to bring food most the time as the eggs keep you filled lol. I will keep any egg above 100 just to hatch it and kill it for xp (yeah lvl 99 leave me alone) just instead of the left trigger but the right trigger...(Xbox) it's not that hard ...

InfectionPromoter Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Yeah, it's already dangerous enough with the flyer nerf to get eggs. No need to add egg griefing to the mix....lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolkia Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Yeah, it's pretty unfortunate that players are so easily able to ruin the experiences of others on ark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
