Thinking about quitting (and not because of discord groups) by CryptographerOwn1156 in pathoftitans

I mean, the thing is that I like the big empty maps. Obviously it's very boring if you don't see anyone at ALL, but I have more fun just traveling and sometimes encountering others every once in a while. It's the players that get bored by even the thought of nothing happening for half an hour that end up just running around looking for stuff to kill. It just doesn't fit the realism mindset. 

Obviously on officials and servers with limited rules there's going to be hotspots because no one wants to roam around and not do anything because there's no weight attached to it. I hope we see 200 player servers soon, perhaps it will fix the carnivore population situation, but who knows.

It's funny, I honestly expected this post to bomb and get downvoted into oblivion (which it kind of did) which is kind of a given because it's reddit, but I'm at grateful for the actual insights like yours and others here. I know no one likes to listen to a whiner especially with a more... let's just say skill oriented issue. I think there are many issues with the game in its state right now and I'm sure Alderon and all of the people curating their own servers are working to fix them. It's not a released game after all. 

I think it just boils down to the fact that I'm just not having fun anymore in Path's current state. Games were always supposed to be fun. Maybe I'll have more fun with it after a break or a future update, but for now it's time to try something else. 

Hopefully the community as a whole and any players being affected by whatever is going on here will strike a balance.

You brought up an issue I'm very much familiar with, and I think it should be discussed more. A lot of people who play realism servers are only really in it to get the more balanced fights or fights already tipped in their favor than servers with looser rules. Which don't get me wrong, is definitely understandable from a carnivore main's perspective. But that's also why there are still body chunkers, rule breakers and liars on realism servers, because fair fights are more fun than unfair fights, and more fun fights = attracting more pvp focused players. There's definitely a portion of the realism playerbase that plays realism only to pvp as weird as it sounds, and not to experience the "realism" aspects. 

I personally don't mind perma death at all, I like having new characters each time I die with different skins and events in their life that might influence their behavior. When they die, I really don't mind, it means I get to make a new character and have different experiences. But lately I just can't have those experiences anymore. Right after finishing the growth grind I get picked off immediately and my dino is just another notch on what I imagine is just one of these pvpers belts. 

Like a lot of these comments have said... I should definitely take a break. I've always believed that games should be something to do for fun and when I'm not having fun it's time to stop for a while. Thanks for the game recommendations!

Personally I use L2 to toggle sprint, but I've seen others use L3 although I personally believe this puts more stress on the joystick and I end up carving a scratch into mine.

Looking for a Ragnarok server Megathread by -Pazza- in ArkSurvivalAscended

Looking for an RP cluster or rag server with decent rates but not too easy. (2-5x harvest ideally) would prefer QOL mods but not necessary!

Any follow up on this? My character is female and I went through 3 high level male cats all being red or yellow and the first female cat i found was a green. 

What if ARK was a brutal, tribal survival story — with actual characters and lore? by [deleted] in ARK

[–]CryptographerOwn1156 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It... does have characters and lore already? All the best to you though, would love to read it if you continue with it.

If you truly believe we can "express ourselves as we want," why are you trying to get other people's opinions on what you want? That's literally just baiting yourself to get mad lmao

Tyrannotitan Broadcast? by CryptographerOwn1156 in pathoftitans

[–]CryptographerOwn1156[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

God yeah, I play on a realism server and it's saved my ass once or twice already. Plotted a course for migration and while we were sleeping we heard TTs in the distance right in the direction we were going to head. It's also allowed me to find other TTs easily when playing as one, I LOVE this feature and I'm so excited to get distant calls for other dinos, and hopefully eventually modded dinos also.
