Npc ai

I believe there should be npc that have the ability to help gather resources and defend a base. That way we no longer have to worry about an offline raid happening. It could even be useful in pvp for those who like to solo the game. The ai could even detect players insiding. Like if alot of structures get blown by somebody in the tribe then that person is automatically kicked or something along that line

There are already animals that do these things, why would they add NPC humans to do the exact same things animal do?

They want you to worry about an offline raid happening, it's PvP. Or, play on an ORP server.

Even if they added more animals and human NPC's to help defend your base, you will always, always have to worry about being raided, that's the whole point of a PvP server in ARK.

Playing solo in PvP is always harder. No matter what they do that's just how it's going to be. If you choose to play solo then you choose to play the hard way, if you don't like that then find a tribe. WC has never had any desire to make PvP easier for solo players.

So... that's not a bad idea, although it has nothing at all to do with NPC's. Unfortunately WC doesn't care about insiding, in fact they have specifically stated that they think insiding is ok and they're not going to stop it, but it would be nice if they changed their mind.

Not mad lol just had caps on also but didn't  they say  the people of arat will seek too drive you out there world and raid and stuff so im guessing there will be npc but i wonder if u can capture them and make them protect your base never know still too early tbh wildcard might change the things with ark 2 or though we haven't even got gameplay yet too but soon I hope.

also if they so add new creatures to asd new dlc map they should add the novosaurus upsetting that creature didn't win tbh but it is what it is.

I believe there should be npc that have the ability to help gather resources and defend a base.  It could be great, even for those who spend hours of farming ... maybe, AI could be use even to breed creatures ...

Es una buena idea pero tendría que estar bien equilibrada para no romper la mecánica del juego

Es cierto, lamentablemente una IA podría generar dependencia a que los NPC's estén realizando tareas, mientras que te pasas vagando por el mapa sin hacer nada ... si no esta bien equilibrado se va a perder rol y jugabilidad.

The idea of having extra help wouldn't be bad, it would be amazing to have an ncp to fill your feeders when you're not around 

The same ... even AI could de use to breed dinos, for farming ... but, it could decrease the realism of the entire game, just cuz people will get "slave" to do everything ... NPC vs environment.

They already exist in the game, you tame them and use them for auto-farming resources (doed, anky, castorides, etc.)

Harvesting dinos and defender dinos are not perfect, but even if WC decided to add human NPC's they wouldn't be perfect either. If WC wanted to make auto-harvesting easier and more useful they would have already done it, they're not going to replaced dino auto-harvesters with human NPC harvesters. This is ARK, not Conan.
