Saying black lives matter isn't the same as saying white lives don't matter, that's what you make out of it. But for all lives to matter, black lives should matter too.

Ark players are primarily white and it's about time we experience some dissapointments, setbacks and letdowns so we can feel the pain experienced by African Americans. I support the event/new map being postponed until racial disparity is 100% solved in the US and abroad. Black Lives Matter You can be solidary with all black lives around thee world also with yellow and white people, all they are occasionally suffer in a lot bigger scale as in US.. Keep restrictions, disappointment and Racism in US. I paid for game not for US internal problems. Edited June 4, 2020 by Noa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deAnimator Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 Despite my own personal disappointment with the delay(I was rather excited the Ark b-day celebration was going to start on my own b-day this year) I completely understand why the day of George Floyd's memorial service would be an insensitive time to celebrate. Take the extra week to polish, fiddle, tweak, protest or whatever. I'll still be excited to play when it drops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinobros2000 Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 Umm hey guys, you accidentally released the update and map on Microsoft store..... also is the event only for a day or how long? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrenchee Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 Is this a joke? Come out and say you dropped the ball again, WildCard. Using this excuse is a slap in the face to black people, your exploiting their struggle to try and cover how inept your studio is. Vindication is needed here in America, your game has ZERO to do with that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shhhh. Don't break the narrative. Remember, this is all a ploy to excuse never releasing any DLC on time. They're not actually sympathizing with people given the current state of the country that the company is in, that'd be crazy talk /sarcasm #tinfoilhats. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrenchee Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 So their struggle for equality will be over by the 11th?..... someone should let them know; I'm sure it will be quite a surprise. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisGamingYT Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 (edited) are you serious? using social movement as excuse for yet another delay? I mean when did you release anything on schedule? did you seriously think someone would buy this stupid crap? aren't you adding insult to injury? guys, prepare your thumbs down on steam and wherever you can leave a review. this is the only thing they truly scared of.

You're right. It should be delayed indefinitely until conditions improve. Same with Sony and the PS5, who chose to delay revealing information about their new console due to the same recent events.

Heavysboy Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 They are making excuses of whats happening in the real world for their delay, if you are gonna delay it, drop the map for consoles same time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeHammer Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 Let's be real. We were all expecting a delay and problems at the last minute, as per usual. If it was legitimately because of the protests and out of respect, I feel like it would have been announced as a delay days ago. Being that it's so last minute, it feels more like a serious technical issue arose and they just happen to have a convenient excuse; which seems more disrespectful. I suspect Wild Card didn't stop to think how pinning a delay on the protests would look in the grand scheme of things. As for launching the updates today, how would that show disrespect? I went to work today. I ate breakfast & lunch. I'm playing other games tonight. Is any of that disrespectful? Nope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But kind of ridiculous that a celebration has to be on the day of the release. Even if there weren't 'other considerations', I think Wild Card should avoid celebrating until after the initial launch anyways. Release today, celebrate next week after the initial bugs and major release issues are past. Edited June 5, 2020 by DeHammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeHammer Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 I'm curious if anyone was planning any 'in game' virtual protests or memorial events to coincide with the release event. Maybe Wild Card's more afraid of that potential? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you realize that racial profiling is racism, regardless of a person's skin color? Not to mention there's no data to support that claim. I get that you may be trying to be anti-racist, but you're actually being racist. Edited June 5, 2020 by DeHammer 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not think that this should even have taken this turn. Onto the delay matter. This is nothing new. I have uninstalled the game for that reason. We should not be surprised after Wildcard's track record. Also, no amount of us here on the thread hemming and hawing at them is going to change a thing, it never does.

Yes, American racism surprised me, i definitely didn't pay for that. And is not in my ToS. But i must admit i did know that American people are very violent, that practically any kid can get a gun and go on killing spree in school killing few teachers and other kids. That and similar things happen on daily basis regardless of skin color is known like American citizen don't feel enough American without his daily dose of blood bath. But i really didn't know that this things go in game payment contract. Another thing> Instead of postponing all like bug fixes, new features, new content because of situation in America we could have opposite. Like donation events to help people who help need. WC have run those evens in past (also those are not in my ToS) and i dont see why not to do things like that instead of postponing all. https://www.extra-life.org/ Edited June 5, 2020 by Noa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Necrozma Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 I understand and support Wildcard pushing it back a bit. Yes, it's sad and I'm excited for the CI map, but it's even sadder that Mr. Floyd died, and I fully support the protestors and Wildcard pushing the celebration back a bit until it is a more appropriate time. Now is not the time to be selfish and complain about it, help solve the problem of racism in America, and pushbacks like this in relation to the appropriate timing wont have to happen. Rest in Peace, George Floyd. Black Lives Matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WC is known as notorious postponer and nobody believe in posted excuses by WC. Most of players are inclined to believe that postponing is not because some holy cause showing solidarity but because they didn't finished to develop till delivery time as usual, as always. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cabal Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 yes it is disappointing to all of us. but bare in mind igits everything going on in the world. how many lost lives to covid-19, and now all the other igits out there protesting and cant even keep distance from eachother. think about everything in the big picture. i believe it to be a smart thing to do, and a small sacrifice to pay. so what if it gives WC a bit more time to work on it. give your head a fracing shake would ya's. not saying that all of us must agree, but at least show some compassion and empathy towards everyone else. some of us are behind WC on this idea. also did you pay for the new dlc, i dont think so. do we pay for the anniversary events they give us, again no. so shut the frac up, and take it as you get it. those who do not remember the past, are condemned to repeat it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
