4 + 2(4).

'Festival Lights' are not a chibis.

Whoops, my bad.  Thx joe.  I was just coming back to double check if i misread something.

12 new chibis?  5+4Costumed charge pets=9...Or 5+8=13...Either way the info is wrong and leads me to think there might be 3 missing chibis on the list.

I just wish theyd open up mods to consoles like how skyrim did.  Obviously there would have to be tweaks to quite a few of them (Pulls out the powder for sonys bum), but id love some simple tweaks to the game to perfect it that the devs will likely never do...

Like say make a few more creatures breedable, add a tek binocular(Spyglass for sonys baby bum) to view stats before knock out(Seriously this should been a thing, outside of a mod, years ago), and maybe some rebalancing/bug fixing that the devs will likely never do because they are to busy looking forward to look back at whats been broken or doesnt make sense anymore.

The details of how this works lies within the difficulty of managing the codebase (and in most cases multiple codebases that have been forked). It's not copy-paste as many would believe. It's far more complicated when talking about software ALM (application lifecycle management). You are looking at things like application governance, application development, you've got Agile and/or DevOps, QA teams working on retesting and regression testing, CI (continuous integration), then you have M&O on the codebase. Sometimes managed by another team entirely.

In short. It's complicated.

Thats actually good info, thanks joe.  But i still have to say theyre being jerks here because they purposefully leave SP out, or they go out of their way to make it worse.  Since they tweaked it, why did they have to make it harder than what everyone else has?  They changed it purposefully which means they put time and resources into it to punish SP players.  Things like the cave not spawning, it affected everyone for a time.  That means likely the same broken code existed in all forms of the game.  If they fixed it for all the others then they know roughly what they needed to do to fix it for SP too so it should have been rather simple and easy-ish to fix.  They simply forked us.  Not everyone has XBL or PS+, and some people just dont want to deal with other peoples bs game drama (Referring to pvps over gung ho slaughter mindset and pves pillaring/tame capping.  I believe uv mentioned this before recently so u understand what i mean).  Not to mention they decided to create the SP mode.  Well then they need to actually keep up with it.  Do it right, period.  Dont offer a mode/concept and then fail to properly deliver on it.  I believe prim+ players know what im saying there.

It might also be that solo players represent a tiny fraction of the player base and they assign resources to it appropriately. I don't know if that's true, but it always felt that way based on the amount of fixes for SP.

That may be true joe (Btw i expanded the 1st post), but they actually took the time to lower our rates and make us different from everyone else on purpose.  Its not like letting us get loot at the same rate as everyone else is going to take away from all the multiplayer servers we have no effect on whatsoever.  Why not just copy and past everything over?  Update both the same should make it easier for them since they dont have to create an extra separate setting for SP.

They said back in the summer that there will be no more new trailers for any events for the rest of the year as they focus on ARK 2. It's not about not being bothered to do it.

Sry, I haven't been on the forum for awhile.  That said, they made that announcement because they couldnt be bothered.  XD  I mean they even skiped the summer event.  They kinda cant be bothered rn.  Its good and all that theyre making a new game for us but are we all certain we even want it?  They haven't even fixed this hot mess and we are suppose to buy the next 1 that will likely receive the same treatment as this 1?  Broken skylord spawn on the base "main" map...Fixed for multiplayer but not if ur solo.  I mean what kinda spiteful bs is that?  Or solo players having cave loot spawn at drastically slower rates...I remember waiting half an hour in the underwater brute cave 30mins for 1 loot chest to respawn.  Have we forgotten that solo is actually longer and harder than multiplayer (pve wise) because we dont have help...Then we get crippled with trying to get our loot for the boss battles.  Punishing a part of ur innocent player base like that is just being a bunch of d1cks.  Im trying my darnedest to play this game legitimately and properly in order and thats a massive struggle when ur solo.  Solo players dont need to be handicapped even further in an already multiplayer focused game.

To expand on that, theres been times thay talked about fixing floating flora...I mean great but is that really something to be making a priority?  We have actual bugs damaging the core of the game present for years.  A pay to play map has been completely abandoned.  Im sorry but we have to buy these maps and new people do buy these maps regularly still.  Support for them should be required.

I bring that up because of SE and my original part of this post.  Cave loot is a core thing of this game.  Getting ur high end bps is 1 of the main time sinks and therefore main parts of the game.  Therefore the caves working properly should be a priority on all maps for all game modes.  The northern snow (crawl) cave having nothing spawn at all and SE loots spawn in death zones...Like wow.

This by far one of the worst events ever the lack of color and the devs lack of caring about it is very disturbing. It just goes to show the care that ark 2 is receiving 

They didn't even bother to make a trailer.  Theres a trailer for everyone of the other FEs.

Wheres the list of event items/colors/skins?

Kinda stupid that WC has decided to leave out easter items on the very last easter event of ark.  Wat if new people joined recently?  How are they supposed to get the old items?  I had a friend get the game recently and he cant even get the old items.  No he has to pay for genesis...Money mongers

An education edition hm? Wonder how that'll work.

Sorry for double post, i cant edit in a quote.

Id say it be somewhat like AC Origin's educational mode but probably more free-roamy.

It did take WAY to long for you to do this.  That being said im usually the 1 who craps on WC, but i have to say im impressed WC.  Your actually doing something really good here.

I'm inclined to agree with the actual issues they display being a poison to the game, however I still can't quite call it toxic as much as I can call it them being generally incompetent. Never attribute to malice what can be explained by stupidity and all that. The decision they've made to focus on dredging up hype via twitter and all that while not actually fixing problems however  is pretty inexcusable. I'm still of the opinion that WC should back up and shut off the servers for a few days or weeks and just buckle down on fixing code. No twitter or StA interaction beyond a few updates on progress or whether or not they hit a snag that will delay the work. As angry as people would get it's the best option to extend the game's longevity long enough to ensure they at least consider buying ark2.

I agree with u 100%

I like the turret wolf.

For those who know where this is from " I HATE YOU ANDREW!"

Meanwhile nearly every CC there's a complaint that boils down to "No EVO! This game sucks!", "They didn't extend an event because *I* personally didn't get to enjoy it! This game sucks!", or, if you were here for the voting shenanigans "The creature I wanted to get in didn't! This game sucks!". Like seriously, if everyone's going to get their hackles raised at least do it because something in the game is genuinely broken, not because you didn't get the toy in your happy meal.

Sorry i cant edit a quote into my previous post, so sorry for double post.

In my follow up post i basically (and do) agreed with what ur saying here.  There are much more serious issues that make most of the crying here pathetic shadows.  I personally think its boiled down to 2 major issues.  1 we know that they wont answer our legit complaints so we just want the buffer to sustain ourselves (Personally im running a solo with half exp gains because its to fast now, but i could see pvpers legitimate need for better rates under the circumstances.), and 2 because the serious crap is ignored the people just get spiteful over everything.  The last 1 is hard for me to decide how exactly i feel about it.  Obviously spiteful behavior can be obnoxious and childish, but at the same time if youve earned ur hate and have also been unmovingly unreasonable (which wildcard has been with refusing to fix issues, focusing instead only on their wallet and attention grabbing antics.  Not exactly ur typical definition of toxicity, but its still a poison thats killing the game and its d head behavior, so toxic in my book.) than it could be reasonably understandable for ur playerbase to be spiteful.

Because people have a deep seeded need to complain about things even when the things they complain about are pale shadows of the true problems inherent to an issue. It's like watching people get angry that the cut of steak they got isn't a porterhouse when the real issue is that the cow it came from had prion disease.

I actually mentioned this and agree with it.

All I know is that I play the game, I enjoy the game, and I'm grateful for Wildcard for giving me the game, and all the DLCs along with it. To me, the idea of playing and enjoying a game all the time, only to go onto every weekly post to complain about everything I can find, seems very childish. If all this makes me a "bad guy", then I guess I'm a bad guy.

I to enjoy this game.  Its an amazing game.  As amazing as it is tho, its insanely frustrating how the devs go about dealing with the game.  There are things unanswered that should of been addressed a long time ago that they have refused to fix.  They focus on things that arnt really needed right now over important fixes and correcting broken mechanics that theyve known of for A VERY long time.

Now, i dont really know exactly what was being said before but u dont exactly seem like a "bad guy".  Ur likely calling out the people complaining about no evo and other menial issues...Which i agree with u is kinda stupid when u have a slew of actual important things to worry about.  As i said, i was explaining the general mindset, not casting a vote towards u or the other guy...But u have to understand...When u cant even beat the game without cheats because the artifact doesnt spawn on the original/main map...And the devs have known this has been a problem for years...Thats not good.  People praising the devs is gonna ruffle some feathers, even if your praising them for something legit.  That being said, bringing home a B+ after egging the neighbors car doesnt mean u dont deserved to get punished.

Never knew that being nice and supportive is a toxic thing to do. I'll keep that in mind and be more of a jerk in the future.

Also, if you don't like these crunches... maybe don't read them?

Generally, if ur supporting the "bad guys" u urself are a "bad guy".  If the devs behavior is toxic (which it arguably is) than u supporting them is just enabling the toxic behavior.  Its arguably more ur fault because u may be why they are doing it, because youve enabled and encourage them to do it with no repercussions.  Not saying im casting a vote here, just explaining the mindset.

Why even bother to bump on the worst viewed CC in ages?

Start a topic in the bugs section or create a ticket, you might get a response there. Or just post in the general section, at least people see it there

On topic: I have not checked it on my PS account, have you tried to spawn the item in with admin command on a solo game?

Admin command: cheat giveitem "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Armor/Skin/PrimalItemSkin_FE_SwimShirt_Reaper.PrimalItemSkin_FE_SwimShirt_Reaper'" 1 0 0

Ive attempted the gfi on a solo.  The last 2 generals ive put up got basically no comments.  the mods ignored them, even after being invited into it.  I didnt want to post a bug without knowing if others have this issue.  Chances are no one would listen or fix it if it was just me

I want to bring it to everyones attention.  1 of the fear evolved skins is no longer being supported by the data files.  The reaper swimtop has been removed from every 1 of my systems accounts and commands to return it are not working.  To be specific im referring to the swimtop, not the shirt.  Can anyone else confirm this?  Im on ps4

Bump

How about you extend the event with a week for all the people that have to work? 

And can you up the event colors on reapers on Aberration? Popped 3 reapers and all are normies 

After that patch like 2 days into the event i stopped getting event colored wyvs

I want to bring it to everyones attention.  1 of the fear evolved skins is no longer being supported by the data files.  The reaper swimtop has been removed from every 1 of my systems accounts and commands to return it are not working.  To be specific im referring to the swimtop, not the shirt.  Can anyone else confirm this?  Im on ps4

So the patch broke the event colors on ps4.

Dear Wildcard, as crazy as it sounds can we please get a beginner server for scorched / abberation? It seems odd, but some of us like difficulty of a capped server. PS give us gas masks on island, I’m trying to beat the bosses, but need swamp cave!

The gas mask is available on the island.  Frankly if ur not high enough in level to get the gas mask, u have no business fighting the dragon.  Gamma dragon eats alpha brood or kong for breakfast, WITHOUT ANY MILK!

Also u can get gasmasks from deep sea drops...And u can create cryopods at obs and supply drops(In response to the 1 guy saying no cryos).  Hands down hardest cave is the snow cave and cryos make it easier.  Of course you could carry some explosives(For purlovia) and run on the walls with a megalania.
