Is the FPS issue fixed? I still regularly drop to around 30. I was rarely below 60 before the patch.

I have no idea, but I'd prefer that the development efforts go toward making the game run better before another map comes out. One of those recent patches brought down the framerates of me and the group I play with by a noticeable amount. I'm running at 30-50 fps most of the time now, which is lower than I can stand.

I'm assuming this was an accident, since I can't find anything in the patch notes about overall changes to the graphics.

That damage stat is good. I'd look for one with a better health stat though.

Most of us only do it on official settings, so it's hard to say what would work with single player settings. We did the beta with a similar blueprint and lost a few of our theris. They weren't the greatest theris -- if I remember right they were born with 35-40 points into each of health and damage.

It's been working great for my group so far. We've had some bugs, but all relatively minor compared with what I read about on official servers.

Ah, I see. We never had a use for a replicator when we first did Ragnarok either, but we did actually find a use for the element later. We came back to Rag at some point after Genesis part 1 and took advantage of the big metal/obsidian spot in the desert using a hover skiff and a magmasaur. We had enough element around to craft the hover skiff and keep it powered, or maybe we imported some dust from Extinction. Either way, it did eventually come in handy.

Element has little use without the replicator. If the thing is too big and ugly for your base, build it somewhere far away.

It's not entirely possible anymore, as things like the original kibble system and the unrelenting raptors on the beach aren't in the game. If you want to go through the game as slowly as the original, adjust the XP multiplier down to 0.25, or maybe even lower. The taming multiplier would have to go to 0.5 as well.

I couldn't go back to ASE now, after having the new features like the map and the build system improvements. Those who play on official might see it differently of course.

So you take the FPS hit and don't have the clouds? That's even worse.

I'd consider that an improvement, since the first thing I do is turn them off when I start the game. They're always glitchy and my fps takes a big hit whenever I look at them.

I've never seen one.

My base extends out from a beach, and I get eggs from dinos that are well over the water part. I did have to enable mating to get any eggs, as they lay an unfertilized egg almost never.

Geez, 200 taps? I'm feeling inadequate with my 4 taps now.
