I think you should probably get some clarification from your friend as to what timer he/she was actually talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yekrucifixion187 Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 If it's ob timer perhaps they disabled it to allow easier transfer to another server knowing that server is on the chopping block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerstuck Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 It's sad that we're unable to get a clear answer from the Devs. I'm on legacy and their next move is pretty much determining of me continuing playing (and paying) for this game or not.

Ranger1 Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Otto, I don't think your friend is lying. I think there is just a miscommunication as to what timer they are talking about. I'll get clarification but to my knowledge no such timer exists for Legacy servers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildcard Community lilpanda Posted November 10, 2017 Wildcard Community Share Posted November 10, 2017 The only servers that have a countdown timer (or should) are Extinction servers. These timers show up on the spawn screen in the top right side in bright red. This could be an extinction server he/she is playing on as those did reset 10 days ago and run for 30 days. Please get some more info and we can certainly look into this if it's actually occurring on a non--extinction server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnight_ Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 A screenshot of this countdown timer would probably go miles to helping folks clear this up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OttoGrunf Posted November 10, 2017 Author Share Posted November 10, 2017 i'm still waiting on that screen shot too. but to be honest, that doesn't change thing that @Jatheish and @Jeremy Stieglitz should give us information about fate of legacy servers. please be good to ark community and give us info so we have enough time if legacy will be deleted or so we can continue playing there without fear that our work will be deleted and we will not feel let down and foolish for investing next weeks on legacy servers. thanks for your understanding us all, wildcard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do understand your anxiety though. At least you'll be able to get the save file one way or another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OttoGrunf Posted November 11, 2017 Author Share Posted November 11, 2017 looks like countdown timer was on extinction server but that doesnt change that community that play on legacy should know whats their fate. please try to push wildcard to be open to community and tell us fate of legacy asap. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are for all intents and purposes, the expectation is for them to be repurposed in some fashion at some point down the road(unless the studio decides at a later date to alter this mind you). This is why as well support for these servers was removed(well partly so.. other reasons too). That said, if and when any future legacy servers are to be purged, they'll announce it with plenty of prominence and notification to those affected and time for those affected to make decisions on what to do from there). Thus at this point no news means there's nothing they need to reassure you about because you already know that, for the most part, this will be a when and not an if. You accept that by playing then on legacy servers as part of the conditions there of. When a decision is made, then, you'll be one of the first to know.

OttoGrunf Posted November 12, 2017 Author Share Posted November 12, 2017 people play on legacy for 2 reasons. they dont know its legacy servers (majority of players i stumbled upon) or becouse its impossible to play on new officials due to lag. me and my tribe are in second group. but it would be nice do we have 20 days more or 5 months. as we would start preparations for new officials on time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arrojado1200 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 I believe that legacy will not be extinct. There is a legion of players who are still in the legacy. And every day new players enter these servers, establishing base and growing in gameplay. Many new players do not even know that there is this legacy distinction for new cluster. But I have a doubt, that until now I have not found an answer. The new DLC Aberration will be launched also for the legacy servers ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was clear since the beginning; legacy servers will continue to get updates and expansions. So yes, there should be legacy servers for aberration.

Let me first say that I am far far from the dev-basher type that you generally find on the forums.... but lets not kid ourselves. Legacy died faster than anyone expected it to. There are very few tribes remaining, and even less in the coming weeks now that pve legacy saves went out. All I'm saying is, is that you should be skeptical and consider that they might be in a position where releasing legacy aberration servers just isn't worth it, or worth launching any more than a couple servers, like how it was with Ragnarok before the purges began.
