aYPeEooTReK Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Any rhyme or reason to these updates? Just randomly several times a week. Probably more frustrating for someone like me playing on a private server with my friend but always when we're in the middle of something, get booted for an update. I feel for the people playing on official. I feel it's almost obnoxious to a point. But my frustration is mostly due to the fact I was just over the rock drake pen on aberration trying to grab an egg or 2 and need to be back at my base in about 20 minutes to imprint two ravager babies. I'm more than likely dead (not the biggest deal with the gravestone) but really want to imprint the ravagers. The updates just seem really random unless there's a place online you can check to see when they're happening. /rant Edit. To add to this, the game keeps updating, installing, reupdating, etc. Is it because it's applying this update to every map individually that I have installed? A 270 mb dl is now going over 30 minutes because of this. I've never seen anything like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiImZech Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 no... we don't get that much update on official. only when you see a patch note there's something going on. you got mods? could be the mods getting an update Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aYPeEooTReK Posted April 22, 2020 Author Share Posted April 22, 2020 My biggest issue is the multiple downloads and updates. Took over an hour. Is there a reason for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aYPeEooTReK Posted April 22, 2020 Author Share Posted April 22, 2020 I understand what a patch is. I've been gaming for 20+ years. Never have I once seen a game do multiple "patches " in one download when the game is currently up to date. Would you care to post more irreverent info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
