  1. You clearly don't understand what I am saying, as you resort to immature name calling and repeating the same false statements I just informed you were not correct. I will repeat: Integrating it into the main game does not force you to see ANY tek. It can keep the EXACT gameplay experience you have today. I don't understand why you keep bringing up about redoing something. My point was there that wildcard SAID integrating it would wipe your progress - it sounds like you are saying "I'm okay with that, I've dealt with it for 2 years" - However I was arguing that their statement is false. It's possible for them to integrate it without a wipe. But hey if you're ok with loss, that's not my problem anymore. But it's unnecessary to force a wipe. Integrating it leaves it EXACTLY as you are use to using it today. You configure the server to run it as P+, and instead of the problems and broken updates, it just has less bugs in the future. ~ I'm out now.
  2. You just proved my point. You do not have the experience to understand what this thread is asking and just made a very uninformed response. Integrating it into the main game is HOW they fix it. Integrating it DOES NOT remove P+. It DOES NOT force you to have TEK back. If they integrate it back to the main game, you can have everything you know about P+ today just like it is, but less bugs, with it actually working more correctly (To the same standards as main ARK). Keeping P+ "as is and fixing it" is a TEMPORARY solution, only for it to break AGAIN the next update. If you don't understand what I'm saying, then you are not experienced enough on a technical level to argue this and need to stop. But whatever at this point. I'm done with P+ as there's no hopes of it ever getting this work done and it's limited in gameplay content and WC has said they are "done" with new content for it, so no point in it anymore for me.
  3. Works fine for me on xbox. Never had a single issue. Install Genesis, it's on every respawn.
  4. I'm aware. I was responding to someone who said to remove the entire ally system. I was explaining why the ally system serves a purpose other than war. I was saying war was like the only thing it WASN'T used for outside of abuse
  5. I think you responded to wrong person? Not sure why you said that to me lol.
  6. Mind explaining? From what I see, the SP released exactly what it said it would? So morons save money?
  7. Who in the world uses the ally system for wars? Never heard of it.. The point of the ally system is to 1) Private Chat 2) Allowing building near. 3) Blue name so can see friends/don't trigger parasaurs 4) Allow riding passenger on Rock Drakes still many benefits for PVE
  8. speaking as a developer, that is harder to implement. Instead, you could make structures have a cooldown, that once hit by projectile, they are immune to further projectiles for X seconds, rate limiting the DPS a structure can take.
  9. also the primitive plus comment is laughable. how about wording it more appropriate "The nuclear bomb that was dropped on P+ will be rolled back" Ced confirmed there will be a roll back (otherwise, who the hell is going to continue playing P+ anyways). P+ was absolutely nuked.
  10. The 10s cooldown on snow owl is only thing i see that touches PvE but its a non issue for me, as your owl needs time to regain stam anyways.... Only way I can see that being an 'impact' (i don't even want to say issue) is if you had 2 owls alternating healing. but big woop, a few 10s breaks in between healing cycles.
  11. speaking as a senior developer with some game development experience, these kind of changes aren't necessary to help improve lag. The issue is how the game processes the data, doing it all at once causes noticeable lag spikes. The proper solution is to break server processing up to be more incremental. You have 1000 dinos. currently: its do all 1k at same time, pausing everything until its done. ideal: process 10, do other things, process 10, do other things, repeat. If WC updated saving even initially to start, that would reduce lag immensely. I fixed so much of Minecrafts performance problems and incremental saving was a huge improvement. I made many other things in Minecraft also incremental. Things CAN be fixed on an aged game, you just have to commit to doing it.
  12. So as usual primitive plus gets boned on the event. why is colors so hard to enable?
  13. Why would they have a different stance on drakes for console? WC isn't adding drakes to the map, they rejected the idea. The tweet about Drakes is about unofficially adding it. They won't be on official servers.
  14. I find it humorous yall keep using the Drake Trench image to promote this map, yet there are no Drakes.
  15. That's one weird server... I don't get why that would be a thing.
  16. Saturday I helped a good portion of the server get busy with a Reaper Queen. Found a 125 but hey my 130 is currently my best Reaper, so i'll take it! So sunday, out leveling farming more queens and man we got swarmed. I had 2 queens on me (25-40~) and Tunic had one on her which she brought to join the party lol.
  17. FYI you do not need to set pin codes on your things, that actually decreases your security as someone can guess the pin code. The only reason to ever set a pin code is if you WANT to allow someone outside your tribe access. If you only want for you and your husband, don't pin anything. Everything is default locked, don't unlock it.
  18. @lilpandaWhat about Primitive Plus? (specifically PVE Xbox)? We have Ragnarok and The Center, so hoping we will get it.... but Xbox NA-PVE-PrimitivePlus Cross Ark 4 is also missing Scorched Earth. Kinda sucks I paid for an expansion I can't even play in my cluster, so it gives me mixed feelings on if we will get the map. Would be nice to get SE added to the cluster though with Valg
  19. This thread is designed for people with a technical background to respond to. I see numerous people responding with comments that do not make sense / show they do not understand what the options mean. Merging into the base game does not mean removal of what we have. As I responded above, it's actually the best option we have.
  20. Appears those links are short lived, doh.
  21. when you press xbox button, hit the double square (select) button for capture options "record 2 minutes from now", then itll be on your profile. Getting the link off your profile is trickier, you go to it in web browser, open dev tools, select the video box with the element picker and then copy the URL from the node. They don't make it easy (But I'm a developer so I can always find it :P)
  22. Here's the path I take: https://gameclipscontent-d3004.xboxlive.com/xuid-2533274831544232-private/e8530b3e-a979-4bf9-b8b6-568a4e09379a.MP4?sv=2015-12-11&sr=b&si=DefaultAccess&sig=QPPUiryh407QOz26okxT4HsW79B0NWMQ899RvwpmtRw%3D&__gda__=1560531796_2536821a2541dc1814109ad56b0e94a8 Pretty much around 1 minute between eggs. I always kill any drake that's close to the nest, always position my drake ready to jump out before I knick it, ensuring a safe escape. The only thing that's a risk is forgetting to turn off camo to let stam regen Also has benefit that if any high level drakes are nearby, you aren't killing them (when I went down on Reaper last night killed so many 190's :(). I then pick out the low level ones solo and get rid of them.
  23. How come you didn't just take the spino down alone and uncryo at bottom? Would of been a lot easier than dealing with all those on follow. though since you have a drake, you can raid the nest solo with just a drake. Grab an egg and glide away out of render distance, it will deaggro them all. Rinse and repeat.
  24. semi-lost my reaper last night. Was in drake pit and trying to climb back up to top (that one area a spino can reach), messed up the jump and went hurling towards the end of that nook (anyone been down there you know that emptyish area past the yellow egg area) Well at the end of that dead end is a giant dino swallowing hole, that my reaper conveniently perfectly landed in as I missed the jump above and to the left towards those upper nest. It's stuck in a fall animation, can't do anything. Friend was able to go get his drake and back it up just enough for me to board and evacuate with the good drake eggs/suits at least. Now I await the slow support process hoping a GM responds before the reaper dies of starvation
