Extinction had the most game breaking dino's to date they all needed nerfs. I know im gonna get a lof of flack for saying it but needs to be said Mana freeze breath range was rediculous even in that SS you could of been on the ground under the desert titan by the water there and hit it. Personally i think its still cheesy that it has this ability and should be removed. It needed a big nerf regardless of PVP. Snow owl heals about 5 times faster than a deadon and consumes 1/50th less food, personally the freeze heal and freeze wild dino's should be removed. If not then this still needs a nerf to be more in line with the deadon in terms of healing and food consumption. Velo had rediculous range and if not ridden was a unlimited firing turret that didnt need food because it never used stamina. Gacha dumbest dino introduced into the game, feed it stone and it has a saddle so its a rideable armoire and gun shop if you jack up crafting level thus never needing to leave your base to go find a drop/loot crate, or just sit around and collect whatever material your after. Personally would like to see the armor, weapons, and materials removed. Side note then the god awful gacha towers dont need to exist anymore The whole flier nerf i'm assuming everyone is talking about happened atleast 4 years ago or more yes that was because of PVP. They were able to fly pteranodon's threw walls get the agro of the dino's in side and kite them back threw the wall outside the base to kill them they were doing that during the beta of the game. So while i miss the days of being able to put points into speed on fliers its no longer needed, now that they have added wyvrens, crystal wyvrens, gas bags, skiff. And the mana is far from useless as most claim on here, its just like any other dino it has its uses with how it was introduced it was a god dino and needed the nerf hammer.

This event is underwhelming just like Genesis most were bored way before transfers opened and left the game same will happen with CI. There is no need for any kind of multiplier at all its already been going on 2x. You say 3x breeding should be manageable we'll see if they did have colors to go along with this it would be unplayable if they just added colors it would be unplayable. Your suggestion on color variation would do the exact opposite of what you are saying you want to avoid and would only seriously hinder server performance. Just from them adding the base game for free on the epic store will be enough to add thousands of players with PC's that passed up the game because their PC couldn't run it in the 1st place and they didn't want to pay for a game they couldn't play. But now it will be "hey let me get this its free and I can see how it runs" So many people are right to complain about server performance, but its usually the ones complaining about server performance are the biggest offenders with all their show pony dino's out for display and their over sized base to house them. There are people who are playing now that average yes single digit for FPS and yes I know this for fact and im not just making it up. And no matter how many times people say "well that has nothing to do with server performance that only effects them" I say BS for the simple reason that on certain servers I play on when certain people join the server goes from running fine to everyone loosing connection and getting ping kick on a constant basis untill said players log off the server and that's with a server ping staying under 100 and not spiking to 255.

that video proves nothing, his highest melee giga was 400 melee after that died he gets on one that has 283 melee wild tamed giga. Plus I doubt he setup server settings to match official settings as he is doing it in single player/private server. Along with just sitting infront of it not backing up just sitting there taking damage like a bob, 2nd encounter without the help of the other gigas was only taking 383-500 damage on the one he was on 1264 damage on the unridden ones. Gigas wouldn't attack because they were spawned in but could of done it if the gigas worked as intended and this is speculation but I doubt gigas will only due 300-400 damage per bite as shown in that single player "test server" so your gigas rage on alpha is a mute point right now.

For all the people who are saying "its easy just don't use a giga" your missing the point, it was supposed to be a challenge. Not the staples easy button. And name one map where gigas weren't already there on the map that you could then bring them to. If that's the case then they should allow gigas on AB as much of a joke that is because that is what all of you are asking for. Here is 1 example there will be zero risk in getting magma eggs, it will take you longer to get in there and toss out your pocket giga and pod whatever you rode in there than it will to clear the entire nest area which = a sad joke. At which point I could tell my 5yr old niece to sit at the computer and bite everything she sees. She could do more than 50% of the missions with a giga if they make into genesis. Seriously though its like saying we are going to challenge your mind by giving you kinder garden math problems and ? ITS TO HARD. I know this is being sarcastic but still rings true with the point of view I need gigas to do the missions. No different than young kids playing sports and everyone getting a trophy/ribbon for participation, just dumb. Please the AOE on the giga will reach any brute dino well before it strikes, and there is no alpha brute/alpha mission that will rage a giga that I've come across in 1 hit. The hardest hitting alpha mission I've done per strike is the alpha elemental does 12k damage per swing on a rex with a 93.7 asc saddle on it. So actually do the missions so you know what your talking about so you don't look like your ? about doing missions without your giga killing machine. So honestly if you think genesis is unplayable without gigas and the rest of the dinos then as someone else said to those of us asking for no gigas, "there's private servers and single player" go there if you feel you need a giga to play genesis.

Was like most on here who were hoping that dino transfer's would not happen on Genesis, seeing how they said "we cranked the difficulty way up" but yet there are plenty of people/tribes offering alpha runs of master controller for weeks now. There is no need for transfers of dinos all that will happen is it will become another ragnarok or extinction map A.K.A Dino storage lot. And these servers are plagued with crashes/kicks/rollbacks/1-2 min server saves and frequent lag spikes wanna-be breeders flock to rag and ext for the easy meat farming and gathering element. I'd like to know what dino is so tanky that it needs the giga as a counter part in genesis, cyro podded dinos don't have cryo sickness anymore so you just have to toss out a few more dinos. The gigas will just make genesis a joke I haven't raised a giga since 675 melee and I solo purple drops without cheating with offline billboards or spike walls (its against CoC). Would have been nice to actually have some server stability with the limited dinos on there wouldn't have every person trying to bring dinos there that should never be there in the 1st place. Prime example mana's allowed but not rideable so we can see a bases with 200 manas sitting there please don't get me started. Just to breed their c#@p on [gen-one insert server number] and trade/sell said dino. Because people are already bored with Genesis with its lack of things to do and farming mats is so easy. Should have been a lot more dino restrictions like on aberration, than to just allow almost all the dinos just turning Genesis servers into a chit show performance wise because the ark gluttons/hoarders won't limit themselves to a reasonable size base nor dino count. If anything just blue prints should be the only thing transferable in not dinos.

Honestly do you really think server upgrades will help, when some people join and you hit your esc key to see the ping and I go from a ping of 39-40 to 100-120 as they join and then it goes back down to 30's or 40's or when others join it goes from 39-40 to 255 and then most if not all people get lost connection to host or server crashes entirely. At that point I don't think its server related I know when I can play on the servers just by who is on and who isn't on.

I know the reason why your server is so laggy its because there are 2 players on there that are also on our Ext server and it started when they joined 525 is their main server they play off of. Our EXT server is the same way now that they have joined every 8-15 mins everyone looses connection to host then everyone rejoins and the process just repeats. If they are not on then we can do whatever we want a vein a purple osd and everything is fine. But here is why 2 days ago 1 of the 2 people from this tribe landed his mana next to our purple osd went up to it to try and claim it which we already did so he couldn't but got stuck in it. Started whistling his mana around couldn't get it close enough to the osd so he tossed out a giga which ended up being cryo sick just as the next wave started. Either him or his tribemate Ddos'ed the server for 20 mins, the server finally crashes and when it comes back up. His tribe mate had already taken all the stuff off the character that was stuck in the osd which was now gone cause the server went down and just finished cryoing the sick giga. By the time I got back in the server to watch him take off on his mana, while typing in local chat who Ddos'ed the server saying ha ha ha ha ha as he left. I would love to list steam profiles but god forbid you shame people for wrong doing, and god forbid WC actually does something about players like this.
