@survivetheark This event is trash. Rhynios aren’t spawning, love bugs aggressive for miles & killing passive tames, and 2x after dropping it late AND not working correctly. Whoever the community manager is/who is making these garbage choices needs to be fired because they’re killing the game.
@survivetheark Sure, let’s add more custom mods when your game is currently not running like it should…when you’re not listening to the community…but hey, I can have an undead skin. 😒 Even a “hey we aren’t fixing rhynios, get over it” would be better than ignoring everyone.
@fluidityyy@survivetheark Honestly dollar for dollar, it’s more cost effective to just buy an Xbox and hook up mouse & keyboard. That’s what I just did.
@luminos85 @Asianfahzagamer @survivetheark Exactly. Other games have been remastered & released at full cost so, so many times. The option to not buy exists. People just want to complain.
@draceling@survivetheark Companies charge full price for remasters all the time. People can keep playing the OG, but $60 for a full remaster AND new content is a solid price.
@GreatStoryCorey@survivetheark People need to be realistic about the amount of work that goes into a remaster at this level. They could’ve stopped supporting Ark 1 entirely for Ark 2 but they’re redoing so the community can continue enjoying a game they love since Ark2 will have so many changes
@orbit9224@HiMyNamIz12345@survivetheark Are you kidding? Tons of people complaining about what Ark 2 may look like AND that they want bug fixes. This fixes both of those issues, but it’s got aspects to it (like restarting game) that some people don’t like.
@WS_WolfStar@Nekatus@survivetheark I feel like this was a way to soften the blow of paying for UE5. They aren’t losing much when you think about the amount of people who have gamepass (where ark 2 would be free)
@Lgrady25@benzito2342@survivetheark That’s probably the point - they’ll try to get extra money now, even though a ton of players would have gotten it from game pass anyway.
@Dododex Basically they have no faith Ark 2 will do well, so they’re tying its “success” (sales) by forcing people to buy the UE5 package. They’ll keep that running because mods will keep making them money.
@JamesEr93006085 @survivetheark No one wants it free - people don’t want to pay for a game they’ve already paid for. They never fixed Ark 1, the original game people paid for, so UE5 should be an UPDATE to fix/give the game people originally paid for
@BeratedGaming @survivetheark Honestly loot boxes with UE5 release would’ve been a good idea to make them money. Like, yeah you’re resetting but people who have n’t paid for the game would probably gladly put money into that to support
@survivetheark Why not just take Ark 1 off game pass and give the UE5 for free if you’ve purchased the game? This is a slap in the face to people who bought your game. How can you expect anyone to trust your company.
@ARK2News I’m think Ark UE5 as a summer release and Ark 2 pushed back to late 2024. Guessing they’ll have the animated series out just before UE5 so they can bring new players in to amp up Ark 2 release
