“We may revisit that after Extinction”

[SaltyMonkey 670]

Now that Extinction has launched, how long, if ever, do you think it will be until Wildcard revisit the issues raised in their recent digests?

[ChargingParacerParacer 308]

I'm just waiting to see if they actually release a certain Ini. setting or if that was just one of their lies. It likely was though they already conveniently scrubbed basically all mentions from the search feature when they did mainenance on it that one day.

I hope they finally do look at S+. When aberration released they said they would look at s+ in the new year (2018). It seems to me they basically said they would look at it after extinction released. There are many things in that mod that I would love to see on console

They said that they were planning on integrating S+ "Shortly" a year before Ab was released. Just like the Kibble rework.

Dude no one but you still cares about flyer nerf

[RipRavage 197]

Remember when a water obelisk and Water boss were on the table for the near future?

Extinction is the end of the story arc.

More Ark or a sequel could be in the future, no one knows.

And I'm gonna keep right on caring as long as it takes ? Put me on block if reading the words flyer and nerf together triggers your dainty little feelings.

Other people care, they just don’t go on about it any more. Look how long it took dynamic length bridges to be added... (Tek Bridge added to Extinction).

Was that an offical quote from WC, or was it a request or suggestion from the players?

The latter.

[Aylana314159 503]

There was a recent news article including interviews with the Ark devs.

 

It's as I said above. Extinction is the last of the trilogy (3 part story arc).

 

There is a quote from the article:

"That means another Season Pass, more free content or even a full sequel are all on the table for 2019 and beyond."

You're wrong. Many still care and it's still a major issue in the game that will always be a frustration.

As evident by the number of people using mods to reverse the flyer nerf, it's obvious people care.

 

The major problem is the discrepancy between steam PC with access to mods and consoles with no access. A setting to toggle flyer speed leveling and settings for stamina by species would make the flyer nerf reversible on consoles.

 

WC stated that they could add this type of setting. Source:Twitchcon Aberration preview 

 

So is this another failed promise or just WC inability to tell the truth?

Just to note, that quote did not come from the devs. The author of the article said that. Don't take that one to the bank.

That's still a true statement. They said they could. Could doesn't infer will or would.

Which is exactly why I used the word "could".

 

How exactly are console players supposed to take statements like this?

Well if you've been around the game long enough, you would probably take it as it's not going to happen.

Meaning that WC cares less about console players (evidence given above).

I wouldn't pretend to be in the heads of other people to know who they do and don't care about. I wouldn't make that assumption. But that's just me. 

All I know is what's happened in the past.

So people and companies shouldn't be judged on what they say compared to what they actually do?

 

It's human nature to judge. This judgement or opinions formed by us humans is likely to carry on the future purchases. It pays for companies not to make promises (or perceived promises) that they either cannot or will not keep.

If they say they will do something. Sure, but when they say they could do something, no.

That's not a promise to implement. It's an admission of capability.

[Aylana314159 503]

It's was actually a promise in writing.

From ark digest.

Survivor gaiainruin asks, "Would you consider making classic fliers an option you could check for player dedicated and single player servers?"

  Quote

We’ll be making all the relevant values INI-and-Host-UI editable during the Dino TLC pass, so you will be able to make the Fliers handle whatever you’d like.

Probably after they fix unfinished Extinction.
