  1. Is there any official countdown for the end of ARK? Like, down to precision of minutes? I can't find one.
  2. THE END IS NEAR!!!! Many people shouted that before, but as we all know this time its official confirmed. There has been up and down in this game. Cheaters, dupers, and RMT may have been wracking haywires and WC may have been making the bad situation worse, but if you are still here, you must at least have loved some part of the game at some point of the time, right? When do you think was the finest hours of the ARK? When was the time that when you look back upon, you would think "Ah!, I wish that could last forever!"
  3. I think it is like how it is the film industry. When you get a good series, but then it goes kind of bad..... due to one reason or another, it is a fairly common next step to reduce the cost on future development and try to extract however much money you can from this series before you bail without considering any consequence on the reputation or future prospect of the series. I think it is termed "recycling" or something in the industry, may have remember the term incorrectly. I think this is what is happening now. ARK has quite the large player base, and it has became unprofitable to keep managing the game properly. As such, a better way to profit would be using that player base to extract however much you can by spending however less you can before abandoning the game as a whole.
  4. I guess the shutdown countdown just made people who play ARK official as a habit reconsider the if it is worth it to go on. At least it is so in my case. Used to play ARK when ever I had a bit of time without thinking too much. Now that it is shutting down, and I have 4 months of time to decide whether to start anew or quit, it really start to make me reconsider if the game is still worth playing. Not to mention the extra payment for ASA, that really tilted the scale.
  5. First of all, this proposal is based on the assumption that all official servers are to be shut down at due time. In other words, this is not a discussion about whether it is a good thing for the ARKs to end. I acknowledge that this may be a pointless poll, since Wild Card probably not see it. Even if they do, they will probably not care. I also acknowledge a few reasons that why people may want the servers to shut down as late as possible and not before due time. You could add more. 1. There are projects that they still want to complete in ark. 2. They may want to experience more multiplayer aspects of the game. The following are my personal reasons of hoping that, if the ARK will shutdown within about 4 months, then I would rather it to be earlier. You could also add more. 1. In 5 months, I expect people will leave or reduce maintenance efforts. By the time when the save files are released, they will be filled with empty bases and perhaps empty servers. If I were to use these save files as my memory of ARK, I would rather it not contain such a depressed scene. 2. Obviously, I still need to maintain my own base for months if I want it to be in the save files. 3. Since people will probably leave, multiplayer aspect of current official servers plummets 4. If there are players who want to start their private servers using the ARK save files, they would be able to do it sooner if they get the files sooner.
  6. Come to think of it the ARK story is still unfinished. They never made any series about what happened to earth after all the ARKs (especially aberration) deorbited.
  7. Welp, its probably not a bad thing. I speculate at that time most people who do Real Money Trading, Exploitations, and Hacking will probably begone too. The servers will probably run much smoother than it had ever been. As someone who had been here since the max level for player was 60 and the name "nameless" wasnt indicating a specific animal, i just want to say its a shame that we didnt get to enjoy this game in the smooth way since the beginning. On the other hand, as much as i am looking forward to ARK II, I am kind of concerned about the prospect of a "soul-like" game in the "ARK-like" server......
  8. I am glad that they are making ark 2 instead of continuing ark after gen2 I guess that really do make my survival end here........ Sometimes I just wished that I had never knew "ARK", never stayed, never got attached
  9. Once again, I have the feeling that WC are brilliant artists and pathetic engineers. Precision and flawlessness are simply not their thing........
  10. warnings to all players: watch your character experience when transferring i just transferred a character and lost ~2x10^8 exp
  11. If you are a developer and you actually read this line, please some how give a sign......
  12. about boosting breeding rates......... good things: makes game much easier? bring more people into official servers bad things: makes game much easier? increase player head count in server (extra lag/ crash likelihood) increase creature head count in server (extra lag/ crash likelihood) offset pvp balance by a lot
  13. imprint, ascensions, tekgrams, missions, and extra chibi levels.............. maybe its just better to add an option to duplicate the character on transfer and zero the experience and hexagon of duplicated character
  14. it is really sad but once again, i guess.......: its unlikely that this problem will be solved before all your belongings decay. (that is, assuming if it will be solved at all) as someone who faces similar problem, I suggest you start from zero again
  15. um....... if you are in pve, then you usually trade eggs if you are in pvp, then you usually steal eggs and cryo pods i have never seen any tribe catch up by mutating creatures themselves.......
