HiImZech Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 PSA: candies are deleted good bye cool looking dinos when a friend comes over for a tour edit: found this in the announcement but this is not advertised anywhere else. yea sure love evolved stuff are said to be deleted but other event stuff are affected too. either the one who wrote the announcement didn't word it correctly or some guy in charge of the delete messed up and I supposed items with a NO on the top right corner are marked for delete as well? does WC understand most of those item are from achievement and cannot be deleted? and why is oil affected? is oil going to be taken out of the game because electricity comes by too easily?

IanHighlander Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 They stated that candies would be removed with this update as they were identified as using a lot of resources in game and causing performance issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BadBunny Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 I read about this in the community crunch but really thought that it wouldn't happen, it's such a miserable thing to do, all the effort during the events to get the candies was just a pure waste of time, I don't think i shall bother with them in future if this is the way things are going to be handled by Wildcard. This is just another reason for me to play less and less with the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the items are that much of a problem why did they waste time coding them in. They discovered how much memory they were using during the last event. Previously they were not identified as a problem. The post about deleting them actually details that discovery. Future events will probably also contain candies but be removed immediately after the event concludes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IanHighlander Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 I actually stopped using them, the speed boost on flyers caused a real serious issue for me. Here's an example video I took at the time to post in my discord channel. Notice the background jerkiness? I spent three hours trying to work out what the problem was, verifying files on the server and my client and all sorts of other things including stripping my PC apart to check and clean my graphics card, then jumped on a normal Wyvern and realised there was no problem at all, it was only on flyers that had been given a candy.

NSW Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Hooray!! Instead of properly fixing and optimizing our game correctly, we are going to simply remove minor poop that people had to work to acquire. No consideration for the community or their input, no options to allow non-official servers to keep things available as is, just quick and poopty patching and removal jobs. Surprised i am not. This is why i don't even bother with events anymore and another reason i will not be supporting any future DLC from WildCard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graviphoton Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Like you, I know it is futile. I only pointed that statement was different... On Wyvern it ocasionally freezes my game (on Ragnarok). But candies on Extinction was valuable boost for my Argies and Managarmrs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackyling Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 If the candies rly Brakes the Game that much, it was good that they are all away now. Bevore Genesis DLC was out, our Server kickd Players all Day Long. Every 5-10 minutes. Now Genisis is out Candies deletet and our Server got Maybe 1 disconnect per Day!!!

Interesting, I did not notice that problem. Then again I am having connectivity issues with my internet, so that could have hidden the issue. Funny thing is, I didnt even notice a speed boost on my wyvern so I just assumed flyers didnt get the bonus. I just used the candies for the cool looks.

Tolandia Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Valentine's Event Chocolates Removed Why remove all the current event rewards players accumulated? I can understand removing the color and buff items that players collected since there are so many that most could never use them all. But why remove the latest events items like the Box of Chocolates? I spent a lot of time breeding during the event and had about half a fridge of Chocolates and planned to use them for taming for a while. Really disappointed that you would take away current rewards from an event that just finished. What is the point of even having the event if you take away the rewards like that?

lordbufu Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 This was communicated ahead of time, sadly (or understandably depending on your opinion) more event assets have been removed, that where not communicated (like zomdodo's). There is a mod on steam that adds said resources, i have not tested it yet, but if you play SP or on a hosted server you might be able to recover the lost assets via that.

Tolandia Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 There is no way the Heart Chocolates were causing decreases in game performance.....the candies I can understand since they change dino colors and movement speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erinn Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Not only the candies, but also all zombie dinos are gone, or cryopods showing raptor icon just like some dinos from valguero. Even my dodorex taxidermy isnt displaying the dodorex, the icon is blank with no dino siluette on it. And I spent days collecting those damn wishbones just to have the statue. Rip my lvl 180 zomdodos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
