Agreed. Its unfortunately difficult to make a game truely PvE in a multiplayer setting when you have mechanics like land possesion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just all the PvP nerfs. Things like land claim blocks have been used in other games. Of course WC has problems setting limits, so real land claim might make it worse.

DaGoodNamesWereTaken Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Def not greifing, If I was you id tame low level brontos and leave them in front of there base or in there base. Especially where the dinos they own are parked to make it a pain. In front of doors etc That's griefing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soldier905 Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Dont expect much out of Customer service , the best they will do is probley give you a genaric message saying they are "sorry" (ya right...) but they cant do anything LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DauntingBeef08 Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 I think its fair that they pillard the area to claim it as it loooked like you had left but since you have come back and have asked them i would remove them i would wait for 2 times and tame as many bronto, diplo as you can be bothered too. then cryo pod them and then throw them out in their base in their main base door ways, if oyu really wanna get them back see fi you can spot them hatching eggs and the block doors. nasty and might be against pve rules but you have politly asked them to remove them.

LarryLafer Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Blocking doorways with cheap tames is a good idea but could also put your account in jeopardy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry is right. Regular Pillaring isnt against the rules but this is. That being said.. use an alt account I couldnt imagine playing official PVE these days with cryopods.

Keep adding to your report. It is against rules to block you in, and even tho you have been away to have some of your base despawned, you have made an effort to get the other players attention, but they refused to respond. I believe the report form allows for additional replies. Try that. Sample situations I have personally experienced: When I see a base dinos/wood despawn, and I want that territory, I would pillar it too (I have done this on Extinction, and now have a lovely space! If they returned before all of their stuff despawned, I would be more than happy to remove my pillars (all their stuff, except for their body, is gone. he is nicely tucked away under my new base in case he ever comes back). I have also had a situation where I had given my tribe to someone I thought I could trust, who turned around and ditched me (by believing the lies of their tribemate) and they eventually had a falling out between them, they split up, and eventually both stopped playing... Me and my friend pillared the living dilo out of my old territory, and I will NOT return it. It was my land to begin with. If I get reported for it... well.. this second scenario happened on Legacy, so it's not something WC will enforce. So it depends on what has happened in the past, and the circumstances, as well as the type of server. Be careful... make sure you are within rules, whatever you do. Do what you feel is right and good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balska Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 2 ways : 1) Ask again on support 2) Pillar him back and close as possible from his builds so he can't build anything more sadly, the 2nd works fine because wildcard don't help much in game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I logged in today after being away for a few days to find I had been killed by a dino a few days in game before my dinos were killed when I logged on yet NOBODY has been on in the time between all of this happening. Ummmm how? How does my character get killed at a different time to my dinos?? Isn't that what offline raid protection is? And furthermore, my freakin bed wasn't even damaged yet that's where I died. Hmmm DILO? Sometimes wilds can attack stuff inside fully enclosed houses. While structures and tames have Offline Raid Protection, player's bodies do not.

I decided to start rebuilding the bits and pieces that have gone but I've got one problem, in my absence my neighbour has managed to pillar in around my base so closely I can't even put the roof back on my base! I've asked them repeatedly if they can remove the pillars and they're outright ignoring me, I've literally jumped around infront of them and they refused to acknowledge me. Now I've put in a report at the back end of December asking if I could have someone come and remove the pillars so I can put my roof back on and the plumbing in but the Mods are refusing to do anything! It's been under "Investigation" for a month now and I'm fed up. Has anyone got a suggestion as to what I could do to help me regain back my territory? Where are you? why not come to our server and join us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spektakel Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 The overall problem: A greedy player can pillar a good player too easy. I had a medium scorched earth base with a wall and a couple of medium houses. looks like my neigbour startet to pillar my base up in a way I could not even repair / replace my own wall segments. Funny thing, he had even placed a pillar less than two foundations away from my wall effecttively blocking part of my houses far inside my walls too!! How the Fun can someone place a pillar so close to my structures that even I can not access them any more? Thankfully he was a reasonable guy and moved his pillars a bit. Even more frightning, a guy placed a small thatch structure inside my walls and blocking my main stable. Thankfully it decayed quickly. The moral of the story: Place metal pillars around your base and inside your base in large numbers. It is a stupid game mechanics but a valid game mechanics. On my main server I have claimed around 30 foundations outside my walls, over 100 pillars in and outside my base . Utter waste of space, but ugly but only solution to this.

TravisMichael Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 I had someone do something similar to me. My computer crashed and I had to get a new one. When I got back to Ark, someone had claimed the land adjacent to mine and prevented me building. When he refused to move his structure, I waited till he logged off, then built a wall surrounding his base on all sides. Basically trapped his land dinos inside. Within a day he came to me seeking a resolution. He took down his structures and I demolished my wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AriannaTheCrazy Posted February 4, 2019 Author Share Posted February 4, 2019 Update! Thanks for the support guys! Devs did come in and help out with the complaint and removed the three pillars causing all the issues! I once again have a roof on my home and can get back to retaming and gathering, thanks much again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
