when do you guys think aberration will be released? I'm thinking start of November or mid November.

No chance of it before late Nov. When they give a date, the last possible part of it is your only chance but most likely it will be here Dec/Jan

sorry, I should have been more clear in that they should only confirm release dates after cert, my bad

by all means they should have a confirmation of something coming soon but DO NOT confirm the release date until after Cert.

also I would love to have a DLC released where it is a COMPLETE mystery. no spoilers as to animals, locations, tech, abilities etc.

imagine the excitement at finding out everything the map has to offer to you without any spoilers. make it a truly explorative situation. this isn't survival evolved when the manual to everything is provided before the release of the DLC

They sort of did that with scorched earth. they didnt release much info and then just dropped the dcl on us. and it was proboably the only thing they have done the right way so far.

Isn't hosting your own server already a thing?

on pc and ps4 yes. Not on xbox, this is what everyone is mad about. Well you could host a dedicated server but you need 2 xboxs they run like crap and crash and rollback 24/7. And if you have 10+ players or if a single person tames a bronto its unplayable.

And yes official servers are full of mega tribes, trolls, and alpha tribes who are dictators. This is why rented servers are wanted so bad

I’m happy you guys wrote a paragraph about the delayed Xbox Nitrado servers but your could have at least made it known, not the excuse of “It’s in our news article” when confronted about it.

If it weren’t for Nitrado personally emailing me about it, I would have never have thought to look.

You guys put out tweets all the time about less important stuff but some how neglect to mention something that will affect a lot of people.

Edit: The news article should be better titled.

They tried to hide it but knew they had to say something. They made a little update in a spot where barely anyone would check. I also found out from nitrado and also found the paragraph about it in that article FROM NITRADO. There was no reason not a single employee could send out a tweet. Its disgusting.

The way you see it is simply one way of looking at it. The reason many people want servers is because we want to host our own, with friends. One of the (many) benefits of this is it'll be away from the trolls (and lag, tame caps etc) of official servers.

Many of us aren't even playing the game now, we're just waiting for the servers to become available.

Given that the Nitrado ones are delayed, I don't even want to think about what impact this will have on the Play Anywhere version

Exactly. I stopped playing months ago until the xbox rented ones are here. But as i saw in another thread, if they dont get here soon before the other major games get released (new COD, PUBG, etc..) wildcard will lose tons of players.

People need to stop overreacting about the servers i mean whats so important about it, the way i see it, is that servers are a place where jerks and trolls hang out to ruin people's day. P.s love aberration cant wait for it, I understand delaying it we dont want a bunch of bugs and glitches in a DLC that people payed money for.

Are you referring to the official servers or the Rented ones?

Hate the delay, but I'm glad you're doing that rather than releasing it unfinished. Love you Wildcard, don't let the edgy, needy twelve year olds who whine over every eta get you down!

 

Also, I've never checked out S+, ill have to do that now!

 

Aberration looks gorgeous as well, you guys outdid yourselves on the awesome biomes! I hope we can bring aberrant variations to,the island!

It has nothing to do with 12 year olds whining over an ETA. It has to do with they missed pretty much EVERY date they ever set (including the release for the game itself) and wait till last minute to throw in a little paragraph where not many people read. Didnt even take to twitter when they know lots of people prepared for the 25th.
