HiImZech 230 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 (edited) event is too short you need have your gigas out the entire event for it to be fully grown by the end of the week. that means no podding for the night yea you can argue it's x3 so only half of the week but the never ending cycle of server crash then reboot shaves 30mins off every time it does this so we don't have the entire week to raise them the event items are not that easy to come by especially when ichy keeps stealing your fish and snapping your line I'm hoping there'll be an extension since wc isn't doing anything until the 25th next tuesday...

mattj 40 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 We didn’t even get 3x breeding rates till like Friday on the Switch... Link to post Share on other sites
Castlerock 157 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Event is long enough to get them thru baby phase which is the most important part, for the rest just put it near troughs full of meat. Link to post Share on other sites
Sativa420 34 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 I too think it should be extended. it isn't because it was too short, it's because for most of the time, the game was unplayable. Server crashes,waiting HOURS for it to be back up, even with us all reporting the issues. Constant rubber banding etc etc. At least give us something that can be looked forward to other than waiting on a server to come back up! 3 Link to post Share on other sites
DomiDarko 473 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 I agree. I couldn't get any new Chibi by fishing so far... They should be dropped by breeding creatures like the box o' chocolate. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Fukushu 152 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 (edited) I would rather have the event end...the constant server crashes and 255+ ping is just garbage. We had 30-40 players before on our server and it was laggy but now we have 10-20 because no one wants to deal with this game anymore...

Mazzikim 1 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 I think you're incorrectly assuming that it will be better after they end the event. But I'm fairly sure it's the new anti-meshing code. My server was having problems before the event started and it was around the time it was put in. Plus the issues from the Winter event didn't really go away either, only slightly lower population. So most likely the same performance issues that you're having now won't go away. But ya, my server has been crashing once or twice every single night and now I'm stuck staying up 3h late due to a server crash or loosing my 100% imprint on my gigas. Once they fix this stuff I might buy Genesis, but I doubt enough people refused to buy it to make it worth them fixing the other issues. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I also suspected that the anti-meshing system would bring problems. Of course it's good to have, and they are constantly working on optimizing it so the impact on server performance is as low as possible. Link to post Share on other sites
SeMmSeM 2 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 server is so lag that fish are not even biting baits. the constant rubber banding makes it imposible to fish Link to post Share on other sites
MotherOfRaptors 18 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 I hoped this evet would last all the way until 25th. Or at least to the weekend. That would be great way to keep us busy before Genesis comes out Link to post Share on other sites
Mavrick88 45 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 I'm on both sides of the fence here. I do think it should be extended because of the horrible server statuses. But I also deep down inside hope it's not extended because of the horrible server statuses. It's almost like meet in the middle. Don't extend the 3x, but extend the EVENT for colors and items. That would be a great way to meet in the middle there. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

They should be dropped by breeding creatures like the box o' chocolate. I was wondering why I wasn't getting many of those chocolates, got 4 from fishing plus like 50 chibi lol. Here's hoping the chibi might become a valuable trade. This was my first time fishing since they nerfed it a few years ago and yea what a waste of time. Didn't get a single BP or fishing rods, at one time it was a useful way to spend a couple hours but since the nerf. Just remove fishing altogether.

BertNoobians 244 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 no event is way to long, 3x is the reason all servers are crashing or high ping, im glad its over tonight so we can resume normal arking. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
harkback 0 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 (edited) yeah, it sucks that we weren't able to appreciate the event to its fullest, but what can you do, go out there and play something else like world of warcraft? Oh please, we all know how difficult it is to maintain a reasonable set of gear, let alone mounts, housing etc and people resort to buying gold on places like this https://www.eldorado.gg/buy-wow-gold/g/0-0-0 Edited April 20, 2020 by harkback Link to post Share on other sites
Piffguru 161 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Im guessing these were PC problems? cause I have had none of these issues during this event on xbox. Went through about 12 fishing rods(journeyman to asc), almost filled a vault full of chibi's and got myself a teeny tiny titano last night finally. I wish I had 1 more day just so I can do a bit more taming but the fishing was on point. Also once again, Ab was the best place to get chibi's. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
SnowboundGem 206 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 No the way I see it.. good when it worked but glad when it's over . We all have work/life other than ark.. Link to post Share on other sites

Robralcad 2 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 When does this awful event end ? Does anyone know when the next update is due for PS4 , I am hoping it will fix the blue screen I have had for the past 7 days . Link to post Share on other sites

PertySlick 94 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 If previous events are any indication, the issues persist long after the event is gone Link to post Share on other sites
PertySlick 94 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 In fact, Cedric mentioned on Twitter that the fix for the blue screens may have to wait until the February 25th update adding Genesis due to update certification logistics concerns. Link to post Share on other sites
Robralcad 2 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 I hope not , my wyverns will die tomorrow in pods and the rest of my tames will start to die in 5 days . Link to post Share on other sites
