I can't say I agree. I've seen low number tribes defeat bosses on Youtube. My wife and I beat the broodmother way back before the arena (granted it was easier then because we had lots of time). However I do recognize that it is much harder because Alpha tribes can impede your prep and progress. But as a solo player, it is mostly out of my reach, but that's not new. I don't expect to be incredibly powerful. Small tribes should NOT be as strong as a large tribe. That would be bad game balance. If you work together you should be able to do things faster and easier. I personally choose to not do that, but my expectations of what I can do are balanced with that. This game is 'capitalist' rather than 'socialist' in nature. The strong get stronger, and the weak stay weak, unless the strong help out. I find that dynamic really interesting. As well, in my single player game, I like that I have huge challenges ahead of me and that it's not easy.

That's a good way of looking at it, though personally I'd much rather either create a rebalanced version for single-player mode, or give us the ability to do so with .ini changes.

Woah, someone's probly icky here. I don't know what is your reason on why they added birthday cakes, hats, and suits, but Im pretty sure it is for fun and humor.

Also, probly the metaphor you said was so irrelevant and nonsensical.

I think maybe you misunderstood. I know they put in the birthday event for humor.

I just don't think a "survival" game is the place for humor.

But to each, his or her own.

This looks like a great event! Bringing more fun/humor in the adventure we will embark in ARK!

icky. If ark was a nice hot juicy steak, humor would be ice cream. Great separately, gross together.

Unfortunately, as stated by TheRightHand on Reddit, Wildcard doesn't foresee themselves getting any better at the whole communication thing. They're just too busy from what I read. Sucks, but that's just the way the ball bounces. 

So they have time to goof off on reddit but not their own forums?
