Critor 52 Posted January 6, 2019 (edited) Come on Devs. FOR YEARS IN ARK WE ASKED FOR A CHOICE OF GATES, AND YOU WOULDN'T GIVE US THEM. I am sick and tired of having to build structures that are either TOO SMALL or stupidly OVERSIZED, just to fit the gates. Please give us a selection of Gates, or implement the DYNAMIC GATE from the S+ MOD from Ark. Its not difficult and can be implemented quickly. It would also stop so many shit oversized building having to be made. Which in turn will reduce the lag on the servers. WIN WIN WIN. Come on Devs start using some common sense, you've made a great game so far, but implementing Dynamic gates would make total sense. Give the players what they need. Sorry if this sounds aggressive but I love designing good buildings, but can because of the lack of gate choices I am limited to having to build massive ridiculous barns to incorporate the behemoth gate.

Rogash 13 Posted January 6, 2019 It would be nice to have a gate that snapped to the rest of the building pieces. They should also drastically increase the price of gates so people don't build ugly walls out of them. 3 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Linxie 16 Posted January 7, 2019 Thanks for creating this - I was going to post the same thing. Either a 3x5 or 4x6 would be the ideal middle ground - something just large enough for an elephant, rhino and giraffe to fit though 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
don 12 Posted January 7, 2019 (edited) width x height 1x1 doubledoor (like S+) with propper settings so that smal animals fit through 2x2 for horses, cows, tigers and wolfs 3x2 for horses, cows, tigers and wolfs when drunk don't know the heigh of an elephant ... so make gates to fit them too Edited January 7, 2019 by don 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TrevorJD 117 Posted January 8, 2019 lulz, we've been asking for mid-sized gates in Ark for four years and they still haven't provided them. Listening to customers isn't their strong suit. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aztek 8 Posted January 8, 2019 Different looking gates would be nice on the eyes also 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eanaya 0 Posted January 23, 2019 Was just going to say the same. Either at least one medium sized 4x8 gate, or a dynamic one where you can pre-select size when crafting and it uses the according amounts of mats. "Behemoth" gates are just too stupidly big. Please make it happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mauch 3 Posted January 23, 2019 i made a post about that too! Pleas e give us a medium gate and different hight options like half walls please Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MagicPuncher 29 Posted January 23, 2019 Thinking the same thing. The small gate is already too big for many situations. But it's barely too small for an elephant. The next (and only) size up is so huge it's a joke. They need about 5 or 6 sizes of gates, but at least a medium would be a good start. And they just changed the scale from small to large, so it's not like it's extra work to scale it again for medium. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blindtale 7 Posted January 24, 2019 I agree.. gates currently start out at what equates to a medium size from ark, but labelled small. If you were only going top use this on top of teh water (where it can't be placed without something under it anyways) that would be neat, maybe, to enclose a dock area? Fact is, they're WAY too big for on land; and what current tames we have (large = a behemoth gate,) and for us. really, a simple, actually small set fo double doors would be amazing. maybe at most 2-3 blocks high.. and yes; snapping to existing tiles (fence, railing, wall, foundation) would be pretty freaking helpful. having a 2-3 high wall with a 12 high gate cause elephants won't fit in a small gate is frankly dumb. Tone it down a bit, pleeease. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teah 4 Posted January 24, 2019 6 x6 would be Ideal for my use. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Critor 52 Posted January 24, 2019 With the new cost of stone walls now including metal and paste, we MUST have a medium 5x5 or 6x6 gate as the cost to build a building for the Bethmoth gate is now prohibitive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thor Ragnarock 99 Posted January 25, 2019 They should also add a wall version of the gates so you don't have to wall your base off with gates, I have no issue with large walls around bases. Would also like to see more variety in gates though. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Taiine 19 Posted January 25, 2019 (edited) I was going to post this too.We are not taming freaking Brontos from ARK. The 8 wide, 12 high large gates are STUPID to have just because an elephant or a rhino are too wide to fit through the 2 wide, 4 high normal gate. Give us at least a damn middle ground. The TALLEST/WIDEST Creatures that are tamable (giraffe/razertooth) are just SIX WALLS TALL and fit through a THREE WIDE GAP. So all we need is a 3x6 gate! It's just so stupid that we need this HUGE FREAKING MONSTER of a gate just to fit through a rhino that is small enough height wise to fit through the normal gate, but is just a nudge to wide at the hips to fit the 2 foundation wide gap.

Strategos 10 Posted January 28, 2019 Add me to the list, just had to turn my animal enclosure into a frikkin skyscraper to get an elephant in it. Ridiculous. Ruins the look of any base, affects the overall aesthetic of the game. And is a pain in the ass to build. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baelithan 1 Posted January 31, 2019 The tallest tames we can tame are only 6 walls tall. We do not need a gate that spans 12 walls high for this. Give us at LEAST a 3 wide, 6-7 wall high gate so we can get tames through. There is out right no need for a 8 wide, 12 high gate like we have now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ie wont snap on the 90 degree corner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grendalsh 9 Posted February 5, 2019 Give gates an alternate horizontal placement as a large hatchway. Would allow adding a cargo hatch into the deck of a ship, for easier access loading/unloading to belowdecks storage, or securing trade animals so they're not taking up the main deck.

postal1988 2 Posted February 11, 2019 (edited) the elephant can easyli fit true 3x3 walls but wont go in a door 2.5x4 that is realy stupid just make it go thru and we are not forced to build ridiculous large bases to fit our farming animals in and just have small rooms for storage in it.

MeatSammich 214 Posted February 14, 2019 At this point, I'd be fine with gates that are the same width, but half the height. Something that looks like giant warehouse/barn doors would fit the aesthetic well. - along with giving an alternate texture to the stone. The Bank stone texture is badass, I'd love to be able to build with a stone and beam look, instead of just plain stone/ancient temple look. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lone_Starr 1 Posted February 16, 2019 Also reduce the Alloy cost on stone gates, PLEASE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
True Sonja 39 Posted February 17, 2019 Medium gate 4x6 would be perfect, or at the very least half the height of the existing small and large. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mndfreeze 92 Posted February 17, 2019 We definitely need a medium gate. Big enough for rhinos and elephants, etc but not so insanely oversized as the behemoths. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TyGeR_STD 37 Posted February 17, 2019 1x2 door, or double door, 2x2, 3x3, 4x4. seems like it shouldn't be to difficult to resize the current game to these sizes and adjust crafting cost accordingly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
