DAAX1 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Yo Survivors! Is it just me or are the Devs on fire right now? They've strung together back-to-back events: EVO, ExtraLife, Turkey Trial and will have Winter Wonderland coming up. They've also pushed patches in effort to resolve some of our major concerns and been communicative about it: toon wipes and server stability and also drizzled in some TLCs. I see the effort and recognize it. I feel like the forums/twitter (or the internet in general) can be a negative sounding board because it's one of our only ways for to reach out and notify WildCard of issues. So I thought with Thanksgiving coming up we could all write down what we're thankful for when it comes to Ark and the dev team in general. What are you Thankful for? What do you love about the game that's working great or just a ton of fun right now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yggdrassil Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 This could just be opening a can of worms, as much as i appreciate the events/rates, the amount of things that need to be fixed grows by the day and most people will be more upset over losing things due to bugs or servers than being thankful for someone tweaking a few ini numbers.

2OLEgend Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Developers get quite a bashing, I played on elite dangerous and they had the same problems. Big, huge ambitions but ultimately the company wasn't geared to solving the core problems with the game. But the main reason I think ark will turn the corner, dinosaurs.

deedoubleu Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 I'm thankful for cryopods. Best thing that ever happened to ark. After few years of forcing quite unhealthy habits on players, devs finally had mercy on us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yekrucifixion187 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 I'm thankful for a ton in this game. Most recently the buffs to several old friends, in particular the Carno. It gave me a new breeding project that works well with my out of game schedule and let me get back to my favorite thing to do in this game, push stats. Just hit 6k hp and 496m last night (started 4200 hp and 402m). Thanks Devs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoganRyan01 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Thankful for the hard work they've been putting in lately. A lot of recent patch notes have had some hole / mesh glitch / etc patched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowgirl Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 I really love the cryopods and fridges and the removal of the timer on PVE (so, so much, I use them constantly) and I also really love the changes to fridges/meat stacks that make it viable to actually store meat. I probably would have had lost everything last year because of weird lag at the xmas event if not for being able to store food during the non laggy days and feed it out during the laggy days. Though, a few things I miss are the trike run bounce (it was so cute) the parasaur humm and the turtle yell. Oh I also really love the new kibble system. It's nice to just have to carry 1 or 2 types of kibble since I can use the yellow on all but a few things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AirplaneSlider Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 I’m thankful for the boss fights arenas. I always find the arenas very cool and love the music in them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAAX1 Posted November 26, 2020 Author Share Posted November 26, 2020 I'm thankful for Ark in general. I've been able to fill my self-isolated time exploring the Arks, mechanics and story. I'm personally having a blast with Thyla. Pre and post-buff. They're fast, powerful, with good movement and are good companion for almost any situation, especially caves.
