That’s just completely false. Look at all other professional gaming companies that host online servers. They have made MORE than enough money to pay for a server host that actually prevents and fights/bans IPs that are sending an attack on their servers. They just don’t care about their player basis so they refuse to pay for quality server providers. They also have allowed meshing and duping to absolutely destroy their active player base completely on PVP servers. Fixing the game first before producing more garbage content for fast bucks actually would make them more money in the long run. Sadly greed takes over and quality goes out the window. Hundreds of thousands of players have quit ark for good never to return due to the lack of quality and ark devs just completely ignoring game breaking problems.
