@Jatheish instead of focusing on reading some announcement could you please check this out: https://survivetheark.com/index.php?/forums/topic/252329-server-93-down/ Our server has been offline for 24+hours now, multiple reports already done and tags on the forums and we've heard nothing. This happens on a regular basis with this server, I don't understand why you guys don't have a notification system telling you that your server has been down for extended periods. Battle metrics can do it and they don't have direct access to them!

Let's not take my post out of context please. The part you quoted was in relation to the PVE servers they will give to these other modes when they aren't required.

I should have elaborated. The legacy servers will be full of cheaters and hackers (within Battleeye's software) purely because no reports will be acted on. I can tell you now that there's at least 200 people that were looking forward to the new prim servers that are pretty peeved at this decision as we all know they will give Prim+ PVE servers again... and they will give non-tek PVE servers again... both of which are a complete waste of resources. They'd be better making them full vanilla PVE. Basically the majority of those prim boys and girls are going to come to non-prim now and completely troll everyone they can... I'll be there with them So the new players are going to now have a few choices... PVE (with all the pillar spam I see PVErs complaining about here), Prim+ with all the associated bugs with it, Legacy with all the exploiters, New servers non-tek or full vanilla with salty zergers raiding them every day... Also just to confirm how easy this will be, Battle Metrics , Check profile (if not private, good chance they are new), if they just purchased ARK in the last few weeks, goto server, wipe each base you can find, leave, find another server, continue and repeat...

Well since legacy is getting no support from here on out, you mean Ced does "Prim+" and that's it. I won't be waiting for anything, if they want to take a big + on our faces I'll chase down as many new players as I can on all the non-prim servers and wipe them, whether they are thatch or metal. This will be the next H1Z1

Clearly never played prim before. Prim+ and Prim are extremely different. Prim is Vanilla with no guns (closest to a gun is the harpoon launcher, not sure why that's in there though...) Crossbow is the best projectile weapon you can get Swords pikes picks and hatchets etc Smithy forge and Xplants We don't have scuba guns cannon metal tier anything required in the fab etc. Prim+ is a MOD and a buggy one at that which iirc does have guns and cannons and some other building tiers. It has more content I would agree with that, but it doesn't offer anything of a harder difficulty, and each update that WC does for the vanilla servers breaks the prim+ ones, which then takes weeks sometimes months to get fixed. If they do PVE prim+ or non-tek I will loose my poop, no need for these niche servers to have PVE based ones, it's a waste of resources. If the player doesn't want to use a gun then they can choose to not use a gun...

Absolute joke. You shut down near all the prim servers, the moment you called "server segregation" and "server deletion" near on all our server which was top 500 on battle metrics had decided to move to new servers when they came. Almost everyone on prim decided on moving to the new servers because of how much it had been broken with exploits and bugs that plagued us. Now you're putting in place of it a version of the game that caters to the lazy. The only reason you wouldn't want lazors in your game mode but you want rocketz is because you're too lazy to work towards getting element or the tekgrams in the first place. We prim guys were working towards ascension purely for the level increase and had already done 2 and only had the dragon to go. We play prim for the challenge. If you say "play prim+" how about you go play prim+ and tell me how great it runs and how essentially broken it is. Also how broken it ends up with almost every official update. How about you scrap prim+ and tell the mod dev he can become a sponsored mod when he pulls his finger out. Regardless of "EA" or not I'm pretty certain that when I paid for a DLC that you have now removed any access for under the mode I purchased the game for is grounds for refund. Also if this is the way it will be, I hope you enjoy the all the prim guys going into your fresh servers and zerging every single player on your new maps until they rage quit this game, because there's no reason to tame dinos on non-prim like there is on prim. Flame arrows, crossbows and a griffin and you can kill any tame outside a base. There are also some tames it still damaged when they clipped outside the base too. Back when they were a thing on prim (before your rate increases) I was able to farm thousands of flame arrows in a matter of an hour or 2...

Your update caused my tribe to loose a whole stash of blueprints. apparently your software doesn't save dead bodies when taking the server down. Please fix this and could we have these back? Or even the fishing rod that was used to obtain them
