Those are just the recent delays. The only update wildcard has EVER landed on the original launch date is ASE Scorched Earth.

Please remember that these are still people.  Calling them "incompetent" and "idiots" because they had to push the launch back a week feels uncalled for.  Do better, comment dwellers.

That is not for pushing up this launch but due to the pattern of never making a deadline. People making same mistake over and over again are considered incompetent in general.

It remains Genesis 2 and the storyline will be completed. But I still can't wait for lost island, my favorite map, the last one is coming out in 2028, it's still a very long time, I really want to play there already.((((((

All the hatte going on....and yet you'll play . Stop complaining, Ark is Ark. Get over. At least we know now and not release date thats something in itself.

You guys should add a few configs letting burrowbuck burrows never decay so I don't have to worry about forgetting about them for too long on my private worlds

People also need to realize a delay from this one map is also a delay from other maps.

They also need to realize that a delay is good because it shows they care about the game but to delay it and still have a huge amount of bugs that won't be fix for who knows how long is pretty ridiculous.

In between my Rag map crashing over, over, I had some free time. I thought I'd check in for the first delay date of Gen 1... Would be  funny if it wasn't so unpredictably pathetic.

If only it was one week or one time.. then your comment would be relevant

Sure... This delay will fix all bugs...
Given the ammount of delays ASE should have been a highly polished game and we have no reason to play ASA.

It's why I never expect anything from wildcard n snail games to be released on time since the beginning of ase this is y'all track record to delay then release broken content I'm positive something will be released with gen 1 catastrophically broken I'm certain of this honestly I'm surprised that the company still exists and hasn't gone bankrupt or sued but like myself a major ark addict (been playing ark since beta 11 years ) I'll be around till ark doesn't exist but honestly from a true love of ark player figure out what y'all are doing wrong n fix it please I love this game n would hate to see it fail after all these years

[Dinoking117]

It's a shame because how one of a kind ark is, I can't think of a game where you can tame dino, take them to boss fights, raid bases with them, and more, so this is pretty cool and special game, especially if you love dinosaurs, so its a shame the game can be unplayable at times and wild card can show they don't care about the game sometimes and just care about trying to put out as much as they can even if the map isn't even ready yet.

I think that's one reason why they delay so many times and also haven't fix alot of bugs, it's because of them being in a rush and try to put much out as they can.
