ORP Servers

[Rashawn]

When I first got into ark some years back I hopped on an official orp pvp server and played for years without knowing there were other types. Don't judge me lol.... but I'm curious will orp pvp servers be available at launch? I genuinely don't know if that was like a late addition server or something.

[Kalisi]

It is just not possible for a man / woman, who is working / has kids etc., to play if they can be raided while offline.

So PLEASE add ORP servers. BUMP it...

The Rant (Gotta let it out):

Very surprised that there has still been no official implementation on ORP. Took a big break around the time the new game came out, due to a lack of faith in both the company this community. Now I know this game is a remaster, but I honestly expected ORP to be in it, even though it has it's flaws.

At this point anything is better than nothing. The old system may have been plagued with exploiters who had nothing better to do than to troll you, but for the most part you had the opportunity to actually build up some defenses and have a proper battle, before your base fell.

We aren't looking for a streamlined ORP anymore. We just want to be enjoy a bit of PvP while still working a full time job and spend time with our family. People always respond to this and say that you just need to join a decent tribe, but this is not true. Decent tribes require daily activity which is just not possible for most people.

I even tried to build up a large competitive tribe on official PvP servers specifically for people like us and the majority of the old tribe members I've become friends with had already left the community due to burnout...games aren't supposed to be a chore!

 

The Point:

I got some people at work interested in the game, but once they learned that you can be attacked without even playing it became a joke and they refused to buy into it.  I would love for Ark to become the next game that we all hit up after a day of work and unwind. Think of potential customers that could get into the game. 

In a time where other competitive PvP games demand total focus and concentration from the player, Ark was my retreat. I see modern games with all of these daily log ins and other trash to keep you coming on each day and I hate it.

Ark is demanding more time from their players and removing our only PvP option is a slap in the face to all the players who have a life. It was at the very least a clear message to me. They do not want players like us in their game. 

Message received...guess I won't be seeing you guys in either of the new games. What a bummer.

snails direction will severely hamper the game its probably time we all just moved on

Agreed.

[OldManSkeeter]

If they want to save this game, they need to start releasing a wide variety of server clusters with different play styles/mods, including orp. If you don’t like it, don’t play it. But there’s a lot of us who have waited long enough. 

[Pitry]

Really looking forward with my friends when the developers add such cluster! Because of work we can't play regular PVP...( Dear developers, I really hope for soon news about ORP servers! We will all be very grateful to you!

As the title suggests are we getting anything like the old ORP servers?

Pleaseee WC !!!

[Orpserverplz]

ORP please

[TeRyn]

@dollie @complexminded Bring our PvP ORP servers back to the official network and redo/re-add these tweeks that never worked when you applied them.  v245.0 * Offline Raid Protection mode now disables PIN Locking, and Structures in Caves no longer get ORP

Sì, l'ho visto, quindi ora devono solo aggiungerlo su qualche server PvP ... E rimuovere il codice PIN e tutto va bene, per favore WC

are you saying that it is possible that the ORPs will arrive together with the first servers for Xbox or PS? 

[Tapejara411]

Oh quindi aggiorna, l'ho visto in disaccordo stamattina.

Vorrei poter rimborsare ma ho superato le 2 ore.

wow ASA should have been better than ASE but instead it doesn't even have all its modes, that's disgusting 

[philippeplantre1]

we should make post on twitter and tag them so everyone can see and there is more chance that we get better answer there

[Orpserverplz]

Oh so update, saw this in discord this morning.

Wish I could refund but i'm past the 2hour.

pvp orp is not a main mode only because it was never given the chance to be. many players don't even know it exists and most problems could be solved with very little effort 

[aikkam]

I'm convinced that if the ORP mode was more refined it would attract PVE players who want a little more challenge and PVP players who instead would like a more relaxed gaming experience, Wild Card ORP could be great just give it a chance 

[OrpPVPenjoyer]

We would like some ORP PVP Official servers, just like in ASE, its for us smaller tribes who doesnt have 24/7 and do not enjoy mega tribes.

[aikkam]

add pvp orp server!

Ok so what is the utility of this "suggestions" forum ?

What the utility of this if the most popular topic in this section, by far, was ignore ? Can you explain me ?

And its not difficult to put ORP server, they already exist in ASE, they just have to add a cluster of this.

 

We want it NOW, we want play it with the actual meta (no cryo, only island) and not in 2 years when all map are here, and cryo back.

 

Thanks

Perfectly put, I actualy feel like WC has long lost it's customer focus and actually despise the playerbase, ya know the paying customer?

Sounds like an entitled view? Well yes I feel entitled to have a server choice I was enjoying in a game I paid for, which I have now re-paid for and not getting the service I paid for.

[aikkam]

I imagine that at the moment the developers are trying to make the already existing and already broken servers work and don't want to open new types of servers so as not to have other problems, I think we won't see our orp pvp servers again very soon. Guys, I say goodbye, I'm leaving Ark behind me and I'm moving forward. If the ORP ever comes back, send me a signal. Until we meet again 

[philippeplantre1]

WILDCARD pls add ORP!!!

[ShadowPriestok]

Dear developers!
Once again I would like to ask you to open an official cluster of Offline Raid Protection servers.

The thing is that I, as well as many other players, have been playing ARK: Survival Evolved for years on the official PVP-ORP cluster.
At some point, the developers closed all the official servers with the words that all the same official servers will soon appear in the remaster of the game - ARK: Survival Ascended. It is for this reason that I and many other fans of this mode bought ARK: ASA, hoping that they will be able to return to their favorite servers and enjoy our favorite game again. But what was my surprise that this mode is simply absent in ASA.
From the first day the game appeared in my library, I tried to get in touch with the developers to get the word out. I created discussions in Steam, wrote repeatedly in the official ARK Discord and even participated in discussions here on this forum. But never got any clear answer.
I realize that the game is still in development and the developers have a lot of things to do to improve ARK ASA. I'm not asking or in any way demanding to open an official ORP cluster immediately, I just want to know some information about future plans, since again, I and many other players can't find a place in the remaster. Their home and comfort was taken away from ARK: Survival Evolved, but they didn't get it back in ARK: Survival Ascended.
