Jasonhamilton Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 Time to own up and sell your game I think it is time you guys do right by your game and own up to the fact you can not manage this game or run it properly and that you should sell the game to a company that can get the game running and working like it should great game but poop equipment running it come on guys fix this poop up already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could just form a new company to run the official servers. Subscription and/or cash shop to support them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indariel Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 Lots of people have said this, many times in the past...it's not going to happen unless one of the big companies does a takeover (anf if that was to happen, you better hope it's not EA since they have a history of taking good games and making them trash, like Fable) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After watching how they ran (or lack there of) survival of the fittest into the ground ,then gave up on it , I don't think wildcard is capable of running this game smoothly. IMO this is as good as it will get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dinobros2000 Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 Survival of the fittest isn’t a very large part of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dinobros2000 Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 I fell like if they sell the game it will turn it to an entirely different game than it I was in the beginning and now! I don’t think we should go to selling, just maybe the guys at the top care more about fixing bugs and giving the community what it wants rather then pumping out maps and “cash cowing” and leaving the wastelands of maps behind from bugs and map design!

Volunteer Moderator invincibleqc Posted April 29, 2020 Volunteer Moderator Share Posted April 29, 2020 This makes as much sense as asking the owner of a restaurant to sell his business because you don't like the food... normal people would simply not return, letting others that does enjoy themselves.

Zahlea Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 While I get where you're coming from - you want the game fixed because you like it and don't have confidence in WC to fix it - what gaming company would ever touch it? What business would touch a messy codebase that they don't know and spend money fixing it? There's no money in fixing the game, sadly, because as much as people complain here, they still play, right? Fixing bugs won't bring in all that many new people - new, shiny content that is of news value does. It's sad but true. For all their faults, WC is most likely the developer that cares the very very most about the game. I can guarantee that no company that takes it on will care as much about it (possibly with the exception of passionat ARK players getting together to take it on, but then: would the skill to do anything about it be there?) and caring about the game is the only driver for fixing bugs.

True. I still think they could probably shift the management of official servers onto a different team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XxxGodzxxX Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 IDK , but running the game as it is now , is NOT working (that is apparent). But will they have the sense to actually do something about it ? I doubt it , thus it is as good as it will get . I noticed that one of the servers I play on (official) was just "worked" on LOL. It's still running the same way it did as before they "fixed" it. so ......yeah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dinobros2000 Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 I think that if WC fixes the bugs their average rating will go up much higher, from all the people that say 3 or 4 because of bugs instead of 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is very impressive for a game over 5 years old. It most certainly has its flaws but no other game comes close to the same experience.
