OttoGrunf Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 is anyone from wildcard stuff ever played againts players that put all points into speed + getting swamp fever and teleporting across map faster than flash or nightcrawler? when you add that insane lag, auto turrets are almost useless. should player speed be nerfed same way as fliers speed was? max players speed should be not more than +20% in my opinion, not to have player that can run over 50% of island in 10-15 seconds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmokeyB Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 No. They already nerfed it once, now I have to put even more points on speed to get the same result, the last thing this game needs is more speed nerfs, flyers are still ruined, a player needs to be able to outrun a terror bird. Last thing this game needs is to be made even slower. If people keep complaining then soon all build variety will be gone and we will all have the same character. Just like the various ptera builds before have all become pump stam builds. Maybe I could get on bored if you were saying nerf swamp fever and remove the speed buff.

There should be dino's that a player cannot get away from on foot. Given the stride length of a T-Rex, Giga etc they should catch you with ease really, and something that's got larger, more powerful legs (like a Terror Bird) should also be able to catch a human. You can't outrun an Emu in real life, why would you expect to be able to outrun a Terror Bird in a game? I'm not agreeing with a nerf btw, I don't care either way - my argument would just be based on realism anyway, not PvP/PvE factors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kited wild dinos will despawn after some time if you got them far enough from their spawn point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isu Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Speed on characters is OP and should be nerfed hard. 1. Its stupid that people can just outrun turrets and suicide with rocket launchers. 2. You should outsmart wild dinos (grapples, parachures, cliffs, stuck it to rocks/trees and so), not just outrun them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColossuS Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 I agree with this 100% it is hard to have a proper fight with someone when you both have insane movement speed. You also shouldn't be able to just outrun turret targeting and render defences useless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first time the flyer nerf came in ark, pve was really boring. ppl got used to it eventually. I'm using some points in speed atm aswell on my main character. if that would get nerfed aswell.. along with the flyers, rexes, etc. than playtime will get really boring for me and I'm sure others (in pve) will agree aswell. I dont play pvp, so I dont know about that.. for all I care, it gets nerfed so hard, that ppl start walking backwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juggernaut Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 No tame pvp speed is 0.6% a level I think, so you don't see a lot of speed players. Weight+Melee seem to dominate as you can't ride dinos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mctoozle Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 They've needed to nerf player speed for a while now. I don't even think it should be a stat that you can level. The incentive should be to get on a dino - even if it's a parasaur! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warcryr Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 I feel like the speed has to be high to make shooting each other a challenge at all. They'd have to introduce some bullet physics if they nerfed player speed just to keep shooting something require any skill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidcostarica Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 A player is too hard to kill cause all its points are on HP, so HP should be nerfed... Thats how you people sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olivar Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 You're complaining about people putting speed on their character? Have you seen someone run with Tek leggings? Doesn't even compare how ridiculously fast they move ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goaty Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Speed doesn't need a nerf. It was nerfed already. Swamp fever needs to have no speed buff that's all. I have 172% speed, and when I get swamp fever I get 200% which is way too much. Use plant y, whips or flame throwers to combat speed based players. Works well. Especially plant y Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BombSquid Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 maybe they should just nerf speed in PVP only not PVE. Same with the rest of the stats and fixes. PVE and PVP shouldn't be placed in the same category because they are complete opposites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCEDeadeye Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 You take the fun of the game with all these nerfs and "fun" is why we play the game in the first point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaypak Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Yeah only because it's unnatural. Tho most of the food timers and other stuff is unrealistic so who knows... like being fast tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with this completely although its unfortunate that you'd still get complaints about everything, even if they did adjust parameters for PVP vs PVE individually. We play both PVP and PVE, and I always try to see for myself what maxing stats/items would allow me to get away with and some things are pretty obvious like run speed in PVP.. The "kick in the nuts" to it all would be that someone will always find an exploit or a workaround to each adjustment or fix, and manipulating each stat/dino for PVP/PVE would be never ending.

Balteraxe Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 I see this nerf incoming, to pve ASWELL. thanks for probably ruining it for us on pve, who don't have 170+ speed + swamp fever. Why not nerf everything? Sigh. You ppl should play on your own dedicated server and don't bring up stupid ideas to ruin it for others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jabroni Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Absolutely not. Lets not make the game even slower and give people less freedom. On foot PvP is some of the most fun in this game, but you need a certain movement Speed to be able to get around. With something like 120 max you will be forced to use a tame for everything. You wont be able to get away from anything in PvP and you wont be able to travel around the map on foot in a reasonable time. If you have enough turrets the speed isnt even a Problem. But why should I need a Stego for every small turret box with 3 or 4 turrets? A nerf like this would also make some caves pretty much unraidable.

ForzaProiettile Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Movement speed has already been nerfed to the point that it requires a very specialist build to be fast which basically requires you to negate health, weight and melee stats in order to level it up. The last thing this game needs is some kind of socialist hand holding design that says everyone will have the same stats, the same build lest there be any individuality. That would make for a very boring game. I have a character that has 1000 weight, who's job is just to farm and carry items around. He has 90% of his points in weight does that mean he should nerfed as well? The devs have already said they think movement speed is fine and you should accept their fine judgement.

So I wont be able to do any PvP without using a tame. Which means if I want to do PvP I have to use a tame which will give away my Server number. I am in a small tribe of 4-5 People. Hiding your Server number while doing PvP is a complete must if you dont want to be offline/foundation wiped the next day by a mega alliance. I would love to take tames over and use them instead. We have like 50 Wyverns around ready to be used. But the risk of me and my tribe losing everything that we build up in months is way to high for a bit of fun. Also, how is it a good Thing to FORCE People to use tames? Why not give them the choice to use them or not. You still see a massive amount of tames used in every big raid. Its not like they dont get used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
