Parth311 Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Should Official servers be wiped for a fresh start? I feel like the game has gotten to a point where everyone so stacked up and the official servers are not as fun anymore. Does anyone else feel like they should wipe again and should have a yearly wipe schedule? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fukushu Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 I dislike games like diablo or Path of Exile because of the seasons. You grind and farm for a whole season just to lose it at the end. Then you have to start all over again with the same poop. So it's a very HARD NO from me, I wouldn't like a wipe. They should remove the legecy servers and put out new servers for people who like a fresh start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FeyGriffin Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Also a no here, only been on the new servers for about 2 months (old legacy player - over 11K hours on ark), but already have enough invested that a wipe would make me question whether to keep playing. Do feel there's a place for a circa 3 month wipe cluster on PvP though - long enough to progress to tek, but not so long as to encourage mega tribes - the old 1 month wipe servers were too short a time to really get going for most players IMO.

Wildcard Community Cedric Posted June 13, 2019 Wildcard Community Share Posted June 13, 2019 Interesting to see the opinions on this. On Twitter people would like me to believe everyone wants a wipe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avaraxius Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Go away....... if they would suddenly do that would definitely be the end of ark for me. Didn't waste years of work for getting wiped because some new players cannot adjust to the game. Already got backstabbed once by not keeping their word on ea servers something like this would be the end. But they got servers that get wiped each month ppl that want to have wipes could join those or buy their own private servers. And if you do not like progress of other players play singleplayer.

Swampeh Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Been playing official PVE with my tribe since the game came out of early access and still play pretty much daily. Would be devastated losing all our dinos and work. Its silly but we get attached to these pixel buggers. One of our tribemates went to pvp and is part of one of the biggest megatribes. He streamed the base for us and the insane amount of time and patience that goes into these bases is outstanding. Guess the ones demanding a wipe couldn't care less about what we lose and would get satisfaction out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gabrinoel Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 they should release a new type of servers that wipe every dlc, i think its a great idea because everyone start fresh when a new dlc comes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a good idea but they would lose half their player base. And the same alphas would just be alpha all over again it wouldn't change anything. Legacy's alphas are still alphas on these new servers, so it wouldn't fix anything. Large Alliances are organized! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt they would lose any significant amount of players on a long-term basis. After a week or two of indignation, the aggrieved would start missing their purple jerboas and be jumping right back on to a fresh server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say if we are going to wipe official servers wipe barely used servers and make them into fresh start server for about 60 days then they become part of the old clusters again.

But the people advocating for these wipes do so for the opposite, heavily built up servers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the new players want a wipe to "make it more fair" but fact is we worked our asses off for 2 years since new servers came on and were forced to abandon legacy, which made me and my friend quit a few times. Years of breeding just lost. Older players don't want a wipe. I think it's pretty obvious only players on pvp and those that recently started on pve want a wipe I myself started from scratch numerous times and I don't want a wipe. Players should choose to wipe themselves via inactivity only. Dunno why some people are so destructive to everyone just cause they're noobs PS: few days ago I was witnessing a hilarious conversation on chat where some guy demanded another guys base cause he built where he built 2 months ago but he stoped playing for a month. Point being autodecay is close enough to a wipe and it's not needed. I see old bases gone every day and new built in its place by new players, it's a circle of life.

After this long awaited meshing patch which may or may not happen they should wipe all Official PvP servers. Hundreds of mesh bases. All of my tribemates are going to hide there and i don't want to go down that route. Pretty much every tribe i've joined got a mesh base server. On a side note, when i quit ark the other day, 2 days later my tribe gets meshed again marking my 11 base lost ye yeee yeeeeeeeeeeah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geneweave Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Maybe there should be a couple of legacy generations? Like, current legacy servers would be legacy 1st generation, current official can be legacy 2nd generation, and new servers will be just normal official.

SMP Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 People who would quit because of a wipe remind me of people who would get mad when the ocean washes away their sand castle. At some point, it is inevitable that everything anyone ever did in Ark will be gone. If you're looking for a long-lasting testament to your existence, I suggest taking up marble sculpture.

Swampeh Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Ah yes, the guy who supports meshing in PVP and griefing in PVE is one of the types of people supporting a wipe. Surprise surprise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
