Realist 504 Posted December 27, 2018 Well I was waiting for this to happen. The Chinese have arrived. The number isn’t confirmed but it is said to be 1400 players strong. Even if that is an exaggeration, it won’t be by much. even if the numbers don’t scare or nauseate people, the fact that they are now starting to dupe definitely should. the real problem of this is that it took years for them to stop duping on ark. Wishing a week of duping they could already have an arsenal to wipe the globe. and if you think wildcard will come to the rescue, they already said their main priority is making it to where all players can get on the server so fixing duping isn’t even on their radar. That is if they even know it is happening yet. good luck to all the pirates, the Chinese have arrived. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boredaholic 39 Posted December 27, 2018 Where you been? That's all old news... They've been duping for a couple days if not since day 1, they've been on since day 1... they didn't "just arrive", they've been there since the start and i'm assuming that all the random server crashing that happens every say 10 minutes to every hour is from them duping and causing the server to crash.

Not old news to the masses. A lot of players just play the game and don’t come here. Just wanted something to inform them if they do come here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nothing we can do about the chinese invasions. Edited December 27, 2018 by Percieval Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well alteast FPS isn’t the scariest thing anymore. no but on a serious note, it was harder for the Chinese to raid separate servers on ark but this will make it ALOT easier now. This will become the biggest problem very quickly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This will become the biggest problem very quickly Yes but you can’t do anything about it, that’s the worst part. You can’t region lock because they’ll find a way, you can’t wipe the server because they will come back and you also can’t wipe them for duping because even if they play legit, 1400 guys can not be stopped by anything. That’s why I think people will be done with official servers soon enough. Only when the chinese are friendly you have a chance, but chinese are never friendly in all the games I played. Or ofcourse, all of the NA tribes need to work together and wipe the chinese, which I don’t think they’re up for that.

People on Twitter always say just team up and defeat them. They have no idea how hard it is to get 1400 normal players together. First off you have the “insiders” which are more common then you would think. They are very easily able to destroy an alliance very quickly. then you have all of the “leaders” from different companies that don’t want to take orders from others which will lead to alliances being broken. It would take too long to name and describe all of the types of ark players but I think you catch my drift. this game will become a non official server game. Probably a lot will go to pve as well so they can at least build even though they have to give up pvp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With the current claim system on PVE could a 1400 player company do a lot of damage even on PVE, hopefully do the devs fix the PVE claim system before the Chinese arrive in PVE.

Well the streamers on twitch are already going to try to scout. They will probably just get wiped by the Chinese but this is already becoming a big issue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
