Boohoo if you don't like the game go away lol.

Go enjoy your Christmas somewhere else

[XII 11]

How could I not like the game lul. 

Delayed countless times and after all the delaying it's still scuffed.

[Enigma 2]

I think the point is we cant like the game because you cant get in

Like the game? Haha, I can't even join it because servers are down. What are you liking in the main menu ?  

Launching before X-mas = devs away or on heavy duty

200k+ viewers on stream, they expected a launch with 10 players ? (Ark should've told them what to expect when launching 3 DLCs.. )

Todays priorities are enabling private Atlas servers.. while official servers are down

See i dont feel that issue. im connected to the US PVE server and apart from the lag which is my own issue ive only been DC'd once.

Which is a common issue on any EA survival launch its not isolated to ATLAS

The worse for me is the fact the devs/ community support are not even making us aware on time scales etc of when we can actually join a server?

Look at any massive MMO these days, they're never ready to support the amount of players that flood into the game suddenly. Again, if its a huge issue for you, wait until the launch issues are all sorted out and the game runs smooth.

They don't care. They already said they're done and everything is good on their end.

every game fails, i get the whole hip cups with new servers and new launches but COMMUNICATION is king.

I agree, but check the community manager's twitter. That's where most of the more specific updates are coming from.

What the hell is this? Some sort of early access game?

[warhealer 25]

Chill people, its early acces and it just released. And probably 100k+ bashing the servers. 

Common sense.

Yep, complete with the same problems that have been plaguing Ark for almost four years.

 

Who could have guessed.

Well they could take the logo/sign when you login that says welcome to Atlas, at last!  It seems like they could have done better than the 150 people they had in the PVP server before they started "throttling for better experience". Just seems like a small number.

I mean, we quite literally said we're investigating the connection issues, but sure, we don't care.

I mean if you cared, you would have fixed it in the four years it has been a rampant problem in Ark.

Perhaps four years of complaining here will produce a different result.

Doubtful. 

They don't care. It's their job, so they will fix it, but that's about it. Wildcard is a studio that has proven itself to be incompetent, it's why the company name changed.

This is a situation that, given the scale and size of how much people looked forward to this, just could not properly be accounted for. Did we account for mass purchases of the game when it's made available? Yes we did, yet steam still got all wonky. Did we account for tons of players from all over the world trying to join in the moment the servers go up? You bet. Yet even then actuality still vastly exceeded our already sizeable preparations. It's just one of those situations where you plan big, then plan bigger than your big plan, but your plans still don't size up to the situation at hand.
