Yeah good points. Would rather it was more often not an event than so, as to keep it special. Definitely, communication would be key, it wouldnt be hard to give a week or two notice. I also wish they would change it up a bit. The standard evo event gets a bit 'boring', dont get me wrong its great as is but would be nice to have some variation. You know maybe throw in a different type of 'evo event' with a dodorex for the giggles, some other type of boosted server stat,special drops, or something.

Romanutz Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 I’m just asking no need to give your snippy opinion yes and no works for me. Also I work 10 days I don’t know about all of you but I’m not going to revolve my life around a game. X2 helps out a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akumaspkplayer Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Nothing with snippy everyone works and has a life but to revolve your schedule around a x2 event or not is rediculous just don't play and find a game where your not just waiting for a special event and if it doesn't happen you don't play kinda a waste of money imo but to each there own !

Thephaux Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 The way I see 2x is for everyone who cannot get on during the week to catch up on the weekends. It does help those who are on during the week as well, but if someone who can only go hard on the weekends has to compete with someone who can play during the week, they are never going to get ahead.

Then I highly suggest using this instead of creating a new thread if you just want to quickly find out: https://arkdevtracker.com Keep an eye on the twitters.

Which reminds me. Another reason I wish they would have them less often is that they could have them over a longer period of time. Not everyone works 9 to 5, monday to friday. God forbid people work at weekends. I missed so many events because I work all weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fv q I agree let's have alpha giga event clear up some of these tame cap servers or something exciting like world bosses that spawn randomly and the server come together to kill jt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plan for a 1x weekend, and be stoked about the 2x weekends when they occur. That plan is penicillin for disappointment and entitlement. So people are planning for the events that have happened literally every single weekend for at least the last year? The ones that allow them to tame things they might not have been able to tame without them? The ones that allow busy people to do things in ark they might not otherwise be able to do? Outrageous that someone would plan for something that happens every single weekend. And even more outrageous that they might get annoyed when that event does not occur. Sheesh. Some people.

Outrageous that someone would plan for something that happens every single weekend. And even more outrageous that they might get annoyed when that event does not occur. Sheesh. Some people. They did get pretty regular leading up to and just after launch, for obvious reasons. Apparently that was a mistake, as people tend to have very short memories and say things like "it has always happened so why shouldn't we expect it". It has happened in the very recent past, yes, for reasons that should be no surprise to anyone... but that is just the recent past and not an indication of how ARK has been for most of it's existence, or how it will be in the future. Lighten up folks, they are supposed to be pleasant surprises... not predictable events that disadvantage people that frequently work on the weekends.

Herbapou Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 1 hour ago, AngrySaltire said: The problem is now evolution event are too often now to the point people expect it (I swear I say this every week). I mean since launch I think there has only been a couple with out them. These events are no longer special and people now rely on them. When the evolution events are this often, it takes the point of playing during the week out of it. Wish the devs would up the base rates (if nothing else it would stop the flooding of the constant 2x threads on a friday) and do away with evo events, or make these events not a regular thing. I been playing this game since launch and this will be the first weekend without an event is it doesn't start. After last week 8x I understand they want to take a pause but I would still appreciate a 2x exp, gathering to help noobs like me who are not even level 100 yet.

Zaviel Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 If there is no event in a weekend just plz let us know. Some of us have jobs and families and Ark is a very time-intensive game. Sometimes 2x is the difference between being able play the game or not. Events are most weekends so the assumption is that there will be one. If there will not be one just please let us know. Communication is all we ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last few months around launch, yes (as we've already pointed out in this thread). That was not the case for most of ARKS history, and will probably not be the case for it's future.
