If you wouldn't SHUT DOWN THE SERVERS with a 10 MINUTE WARNING, that's not even enough time for a server Save. I mean COME ON! I don't even know if My troughs is full because there wan't a server save before the thing was shut down. Honestly... AND FYI the patches DONT always Fall at the same time on Tuesdays, some Tuesdays there aren't even patches, other days they don't roll out till 6 PM PST, so don't give me 'they come out generally at noon PST' bs. Edit in: Current Version: v300.3 - 10/29/19 Fixed an exploit Fixed issues with spawning and overspawn in relation to Fear Evolved event 4gb for this? What Aren't you telling us?

So here I am waiting for these 'stalled' downloads to complete just 'hoping' there is enough food in the troughs because Wildcard couldn't give a Proper amount of time warning to players to get to a safe place or put away their babies.... No they just went 'meh, lets shut down the servers, who cares if people are in a dangerious spot or in a boss fight, or doing the tek cave!, yeah lets make all those babies die that they've been working on for the past week!' no time to cryo babies, no time to get to a safe spot. just FU PLAYERS! basically.

caleb68 Posted October 29, 2019 Author Share Posted October 29, 2019 Likewise they are not taking into consideration the length of time its going to take people to get the patch, get it installed and get back on the server to handle whatever they were doing Prior to you shutting down the server. The servers are going to be back up long before most of the players even have a chance to get the patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many unofficial servers set a 30 min auto trigger/warning for server patches with discord announcements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"some" but not "all" it would be nicer if they would give that warning on "all" servers and not just "some" servers, like I said we all got a 10 minute warning, no prior messages and I had been on the server for over 5 hours.

BrunoFENIX Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 If it was one time or another it would be normal but I have been playing this for three years and it is always like this, or you get used to it or leave the game, it literally will not change the WC shows this since early access Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dzieciak Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 At least 2.5 GB for a hotfix... C'mon, I don't even play officials, I turned this stupid, buggy event off on my private server and still I'm forced to download 2.5 GB to even launch a game! Really, Wildcard? Fix for an overspawn takes 2.5 GB of (probably full of new glitches) files? Are you kidding? Together with that primitive Steam update system it will take three days to finish downloading... I'm so tired of your incompetence that I wonder everyday why I'm still playing Ark. Probably only because of friends. No regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still waiting for this patch to complete on my main pc. luckly the other one finished, and I was able to hop on and fill the troughs quick like, but not in time to keep a imprint timer from getting messed up due to this. I enjoy the game like I said, I've spent more then a year on the official servers now and raised many dino's, and I honestly do call BS on what time the patches roll out, not only that its not always 'tuesday' that they roll out, we've had many patches hit on Thursday and Friday, even some during Saturday and Sunday. If the patches release time, as well as day were consistent people could plan for them, but honestly they are anything but, even the time of day is never consistent.
