Realist

Well I must say I am glad you aren’t like the other guy that complained about racist comments and then plastered the N word all over his thread. That was a horrible thing to do and hopefully he gets banned for it. I don’t care if he was trying to report something. You don’t out stuff like that on the forums That won’t happen. They don’t have the money to make a whole cluster and keep it going for the whole two years it will be in early access. And even if they did have the money, they are way too cheap to do that

90% of that won’t happen. They would have to invest too much money into that

The game isn’t going to last that long anyways man. That is why they are catering to the streamers. Right now them and their followers are the majority of the players. If they leave you will see the numbers go down to like 10k once the streamers get tired of having the low viewers they will jump ship as well and go back to more popular games for the viewers.

I hope they quit too. I like seeing the numbers drop consistently. As well as less viewers on twitch and you tube. Not to mention there is even a lot less replies to atlas tweets on Twitter. Slow but steady Nah. All the people that were going to buy it already bought it. Numbers are steadily dropping and all of the negative reviews are out from both players and professional critics.

Well the really good ones aren’t affected by hacks so it is really hard tell tell who is “actually” good. if you aren’t, it’s all good. I have never went up against them so I can’t say if I am or not. I al definitely up for the challenge though.

Once again, I agree with almost everything you said. Here is not the place. Might be unfortunate but it is the truth. now back to where I do agree with you. Wildcard has not handled such circumstances well in the past... ark. rather they do anything for certain or not, that is one thing I do not claim to know about them because they have kept that very cloak and dagger on how they handle this sort of thing. i definitely do not expect it to be soon though, by any situation. They are having a very hard time with the promises they made. Jat has been communicating in an almost par fashion, so I will give them that. sad truth is there is no sight of actual optimization or server performance. I would see that as having cheaters very low of the priority list. Hey if someone wants to argue and be a white knight? Go ahead see what happens. white knight wasn’t directed at you btw not happy. So don’t make it about that. these poor people that don’t understand wildcard or that haven’t experienced wildcard need to be coddled. They have no idea what they are in store for. Its really sad. Some of these poor $&@@@ still believe anything they say this world is going to the left and there is nothing we can do about it

And I would be inclined to agree, I just know that flooding twitter and jats email would be a lot more efficient. if I was willing to agree that they might come on here sometimes, that pales in comparison to the multiple times a day they check their email and check their twitter

I think a lot of people that have been victims of cheaters that posted before him would be pretty mad if he got supported before them. Actually that would be completely unethical. but we all know wildcard is a very unethical company but if they were a proper company they would start out by helping the first report and then moving down the list.

Almost your whole post was right. Except this isn’t a place for feedback unless we are talking about bugs. i don’t get the notion you think they would. Them having enough time to do that and not only go through all of threads here but take the time to jot down notes for all of them? No dude, and they aren’t going to pay someone to do that either. ”general discussion” try to understand that. Why would they bother diving into the general discussion forum? there is a place for bugs, that will probably be checked. they are not going to come to the general discussion section.

They don’t want you to know what they are working on. someone posted a picture that jat and other devs were playing rust during work hours and everyone got all raging. there is a reason there is no way to see what they are doing. This isn’t the typical company by any means

No not “not so much in your case” in your case it is total fallacy. I have seen every bad decision they make and have co tinued to remake it. They have a very clear pattern of behavior that gets very predictable. When you see a clear pattern that is proof in itself. it isn’t even my experience. It is everyone experiencing what they do.

Jat@studiowildcard.com or his Twitter. He is the only one that is going to do anything anyways. He is proactive and he will forward it to the people it needs to get to. This info is for both of you. If you choose not to use it you will get nowhere. dont expect this to be resolved before a few months if you don’t do it the right way. Can’t believe there are so many threads on cheaters. Hopefully THOSE people will see this email address

No they don’t. You haven’t actually contacted jat directly have you? Don’t bother answering. He would definitely not have said to go to the forums.

There is no source. It’s called having common sense. if you say I am wrong prove it. Where is all the post from the devs on here? I can easily say they don’t come on here because the proof is already here. Plus it really doesn’t matter where YOU worked. i played ark for three years and I know how wildcard works. You don’t have a clue. Your experience means nothing when we are talking about a company that is completely different than yours. their track record is my proof. You literally have nothing

Nope. And I know that first hand because even the forum moderators on the ark forums were volunteers as they said so. being a mod here isn’t a paid position. Jat is the community manager. He posts multiple times a day on Twitter because that is the best way to reach people and give updates. He most definitely does not have the time to read through forum posts. and once again either way, there are so many threads about cheating that yours wouldn’t even be considered even IF they did investigate. Your case isn’t special and at least 100 people have already reported cheating. So for the sake of fairness jat would most definitely start with the earliest post and work his way down the list. so even in a perfect world scenario and they start banning everyone it would still be months before they got to your case because you don’t deserve to cut the line I have told everybody that since the beginning. Nobody wants to listen. Guess they will just get the rude awakening and be surprised about it.

Nope, they don’t come on here. People want to feel they are making a difference on the forums. They are not. People on Twitter are. if anything, the devs come on to the bugs sections to see what is wrong and then they will find out if they can fix it, at most. they are on here. People get multiple replies from the devs on twitter. In fact some people have reported others on twitter and jat said he would look into it. Not going to happen here.

No, there is twitter and there is also the devs direct email. Their direct email is where most of the ark players at least send there reports in. The main reason for that being is if there is a special exploit that they don’t want people to see they will disclose it only to the devs. Same thing with the n word. People don’t want to see it so it should be sent directly to them btw that would be the best way to get their attention anyways, even if the devs come on here, which they don’t, they get their feedback from twitter because they get directly notified. Please don’t tell me you think they have the time to come on here and go through threads. If that is the case no wonder nothing is getting done with the game. either way they aren’t doing a good job at either

I wasn’t necessarily arguing with you. I just know what it is going to become. It will be ark. and you are right though it is marked as a pirate game, but it is also marked as a survival game and they already nerfed vitamins, ship of the damned, food, and others making it recruit difficulty so the survival is already gone anyways. started off as a pirate survival mmo now pirate mmo pretty soon it will just be an mmo just the way things are going. Not even anything to argue about since it is already happening. It’s ark

The main thing about this game is tames and land bases. This is ark

I tried to tell everyone. I mean a good amount of people knew the was ark from the beginning. The 4 islands that are copy pasted and flipped were going to be the map for ark. They decided they would multiply those maps and make a whole new game. their problem has always been wanted to do something nobody else has. They aren’t capable of that in the slightest. they said 40k and the servers actual number is 37,800 or something like that. They have no problem bending the truth to make the truth look better. really wish you would have played ark because you would have known about this already. i have known everything they were going to do and have been right this entire few weeks since even before launch. they havent surprised me in two years

Yeah especially with a 150 people plus? Maybe more who knows. Anyways I always built big in ark rather I was in my mega or just my buddy and I. Always build huge. very easy with 2x

Not clue what point you are trying to make. the guy shouldn’t have said it in game and this guy shouldn’t have plastered it on the forums. i never defended anyone’s actions at all. if you are saying I should defend this guy for putting it in the forums? Not a chance. Completely unacceptable behavior. i don’t want to see that word in game as well as on the forums. doing the wrong thing for the right reason is still doing the wrong thing.

Ah. Yeah the only good thing about the game is a private server. Literally the only good thing

No you aren’t reporting anything. You are breaking the forum rules. and guess what you put the n word on this forum. He didn’t. He should be ashamed for typing it in game. you should be ashamed for plastering it on the forums. There could be kids on here. you are literally just as bad as he is. Disgusting

Doesn’t matter. In game is in game. This is the forum and there are clear rules stating no naming or shaming. People go into a lot of trouble with that on the ark forums. Don’t say I didn’t warn you
