Donk67 Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 Hi all, just wondering if there will be any rate increases this weekend? We just had the labour day x3 event last weekend and the weekend before Bonus.. What are we celebrating this weekend? Who's got a special day in their country to justify a boosted rate, I mean, now we're all inclusive lets celebrate Chile or Costa Rica... There must be more out there?? Bring on the boosted rates weekend to celebrate all countries special days😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yggdrassil Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 One thing wildcard are good at is giving zero notice. You will find out friday afternoon/evening. Seeing as 3x just ended my guess would be a no, but, who knows! If you need a world event for EVO, then in my country the queen died a few days back so that could be a reason, but, i don't think the US care much about event outside there own country 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering WC is owned by a Chinese game company I'm not sure that logic applies any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not seeing the connection between the two. We are talking about the US not caring, not a company. Plenty in the US do care though. Many are from the UK or have family there.

The connection is that it doesn't matter what the US cares about or doesn't care about because WC is not a US company any more. That the US cares about is mostly a moot point when looking at WC's concerns. WC cares about things like where their player base is located, but they don't care about what the US cares about unless it benefits the owners of WC in some way.

I would interpret it more that they are lazy and instead post the times that are relevant to their internal operations. They assume we are smart enough to convert the times ourselves.

VenomMike Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 and the answer to your question was the 1877 revolution of king whatshisname who did this and th.... 3x evo or not lol, damn.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've worked for enough multi-nationals to know that the location of the parent company tells you the true story. WildCard is legally, technically a U.S. company... but not really anymore.

VenomMike Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 Did a little digging.. There's a slightest bit of a pattern, take a look. Current ARK Official Server Rates & Events | ARK: Survival Evolved (dododex.com) I believe we may get a 2x but I think we get one nonetheless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since there isn’t a holiday within the next 2 weeks, I’d go with you being correct. Usually if a holiday is around the corner there’s no evo.

VenomMike Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 I wouldn't be so sure, the times on dododex say 2100, that could mean any in region and the server admin is from the US so.., Im guessing UTC? Transfers to Fjordur went live later in the day too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
