People love the thrill of starting fresh on a map but they also don't want to loose their hard earned valuables or tames. A fun solution might be (depending on player pop of these servers) 1-3 of each official map that wipe on a monthly basis (staggering maps on when they are wiped i.e rag servers wipe second week of month while extinction servers wipe 3rd week of the month) . On these severs you are able to transfer out with anything you find but you cant transfer anything except for your character to these servers. (Just like when a new map releases). This would allow for people that want to start fresh to do so while still giving long time players the ability to keep their bases and loot.
No decision has to affect every ark.... make changes that appeal to everyone.... try new ideas if they don't work come up with another!
Possible ideas:
If population on these servers are high then maybe make a cluster of each map that wipes on a monthly basis like a cross ark cluster 1 - 4 where each week a different cluster is wiped on a different week of the month.
Pros
Encourages PVP at a core beginning level just as when a new map is released.
Allows for fresh servers for new players to start on.
prevents any 1 mega from having a hold on a sever for an extended time.
would benefit PVE as they would have new server where at the end of the month they can pack up and transfer to a non - wiping official server.
Balance on the official servers wont change since all tames and gear transferred out would be the same that could be obtained
Appeals to both the "wipe it all" community and the "don't take all my hard earned loot" community.
Cons
Makes makes for a lot of new servers to be maintained.
