Do we make a new char so we can meet the gm so he can give the old char back or just level the new one and give imprints? Have a gm coming to our server to answer a ticket in 5hrs, to save time everyone on the server can be waiting on them if anyone knew how the hell this works.... I am to understand you need a new character and they will boost that character and add to the tribe and potentially unlock tek engrams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We apologize and we are working through the tickets as fast as possible. Each of these restorations is a player to player interaction, so they take time. There's no good answer but the Customer Service team is taking on additional workload to get through the queue. Up about message from Moderator 16 hours ago, invincibleqc said: Perhaps extending the decay timers for a while could be a good idea while the characters are being restored? I've seen a lot of threads from solo players concerned about their bases and creatures decaying before they get a chance to have an appointment with a GM. I think it's the best idea, but GM don't want to do that i imagine. Cause they will say The policy of our game forbids it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cause they will say The policy of our game forbids it. It boggles my mind why they haven't said anything about the decay issue. In order to address it, all they would have to due is up the structure and dino decay multipliers to say 100 for a month and then put them back down. Essentially, they have two options. Option 1, up it and make an announcement about how they are changing decay to help safe guard those effected and be hailed as involved and proactive. Option 2, ignore it and take a hit to their reputation and increase their support load even more making a bad situation worse. I mean its just a damn multiplier so its not like people can abuse it, and who the hell is going to cry unfair that during that time a tribe was able to take two weeks off without losing anything. This is literally about as black and white as it can get for customer service. Unless of course the scope is bigger than everyone knows and they wouldn't be able to handle the tickets within a month even. Hard to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fukushu Posted April 10, 2019 Author Share Posted April 10, 2019 The GM that came to my server, before all this mess happened, offered me those 104 levels and he can switch all imprints on to the new char. (no ascension, no engrams-> now changed) I didn't take it and told him that it would be useless because I had an very old copy (due to a server transfer that somehow duped my char). That copy had no bosses, so I never used it. I told that to the GM and he said he couldn't help me then in any way with that issue. ( The GM was called because of another issue we had with the ragna alpha boss. Ticket wait time was around 15-16 days. ) I asked for maybe the artefacts for the boss or at least some hard to get trophies, so that I could do the 2 ascension bosses again but nothing. He just wished me good day and closed my ticket. He also closed my second ticket which I made after that for a ''lost character'' without any response and also deleted my copied character of my old lost one.... This is what you can expect. Now you will at least get your engrams back but you will still have to do the Tek Cave and Rockwell again. I also heard that the GM can only restore your imprints on dinos that are not in a cryoballs, which is horrible if you are breeding lots of dinos and have a lot of babies in the fridges. It's also really sad for solo players because they would just lose everything and get one character back. A naked character on level 105 with all engrams but no base and no dinos anymore....why even bother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was posted on their official twitter account, https://twitter.com/survivetheark , that they would restore tek engrams that they now had the ability to restore engrams. Then, far down the post they said basically, oops, they aren't restoring engrams after all just imprints. In fact, it's STILL posted there so everyone still thinks they are getting engrams back until the GM shows up and says sorry, not going to help you. They told a friend they can only do it under special circumstances. If this isn't a special circumstance please tell me what is? At least take down that stupid twitter post so everyone doesn't have false hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawman213 Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Unfortunately game has been riddled with bugs since inception. Poor hardware as well for servers lucky if they run well at half capacity. Weekends are a lag fest on my server. Always guaranteed delay on timers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been through this 3 times before - yes, create a new character. Your old one is gone already. They will give you levels and transfer your imprints when your appointment comes around.

Ancientrage Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 since my character was deleted from the roll backs I have put a ticket in for it to be fixed and they haven’t even responded to me and it has been 5 days. How can you mess the game up and then penalise the players for your mess up. I am solo so I am sure that everything is going to have decayed. If anyone has a way to contact them quicker I would really appreciate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ancientrage Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 It is just stupid how do they mess it up and then make us pay so we will have to open another ticket and wait 10 more days for a response and then all we get is sorry that is it.

JulienTitanium Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Hi, everyone. I come to lower the temperature (if possible, if it is not too late for some). I received an answer from a GM last night, who came quickly on the server for save my base and dinos. So yes, GMs take less time than expected (which is normally 2 weeks). I hope you will have the same chance as me (i.e. your ticket will be processed quickly after 6 days). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
