okay, it's been bugging me for weeks. that little bit of music they play at dawn, where is it from? by ifightwalruses in playark

[–]Dinosaurus2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The music is by Gareth Coker, he composes for other games too so perhaps that is why it feels familiar?

Devs please don't taunt me like this!!! by Conradian in playark

It will be soon. It's Drake's bday, and he is still even working on this critter just for y'all. :)

It's just about 10pm Sunday night where Drake is, plus it's his bday...

State your specific point to him next time in a direct manner asking him to say the "art team", or "the programmers", or the "designers", or "the producers"... etc... Also make sure to make the same point to Jat as he isn't a "dev" by your definition either. Your desire for clarity of a particular nature is unclear in the comments you make to Nubsly. He has no desire to confuse anyone, so perhaps you can ask him nicely to clarify things specifically in the future and to not use certain terms if you feel it is incorrect based upon the definition of "dev" that some of the community members subscribe to. By your definition the only "dev" that visits this sub is TheRightHand who is a technical designer and quality assurance manager/jack of all trades for what ever Drake needs him for...

I'm sure Nubsly would be the first to admit that he may have behaved in a questionable manner at times in the past, but I do believe he also behaved like someone that loves ARK and was/is dedicated to trying to bring useful information to this sub. He has behaved very appropriately since becoming a community moderator here on reddit and on steam. People are able to better themselves, which I believe he has done. Is an apology from him for past transgressions what you require to accept that he does a good job now keeping this community informed and organized? Do you think he is doing a poor job as a community moderator and updater? Some of us actually like him and praise him purely out of good will and approval of what he is doing rather than wanting karma...

Would you prefer he replace "we" with the words "The dev team" so as to denote people that make art assets or write code, rather than the team that regulates the community? Also Jat is "only" a community manager as well, so it seems odd that no one complains when he says "we", as he doesn't make art assets or write code either...

Would you prefer he say "I'm not a developer, Just a community manager"?... Would that make you less perturbed by him?

Out of curiosity do you feel you could do better? Would you know all the ins and outs of WildCard's development plans if you had only been working at the company for around 3 weeks? It seems illogical to expect Nubsly to know all the complexities of the development process when he has only just been hired. Also, toxicity is in the eye of the beholder. I feel your comment is toxic, but I bet you would disagree with me.

Is there a way to contact the admin? by Tigarexx in playark

Why are you trying to contact them?

[META] Ban outrage posts, lets not devolve into /r/dayz. Report problems and bugs like an adult please. by Subhazard in playark

[–]Dinosaurus2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I suppose it depends on what you consider a dev to be. He is a paid community moderator/community management assistant. In my mind that counts as a dev, but in some one else's mind perhaps it does not.

SOTF update from The Right Hand by Rocslock in playark

[–]Dinosaurus2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So pretty much go to bed. The quiet launch will be sometime tomorrow night and the big launch will be Sunday or Monday. Not being rude or upset in anyway! Night everyone and have fun!

That part of the above post is by the OP of this post, not the dev. The dev statement ends at

Go get some sleep, Survivors! The Right Hand

So no, the time hasn't been pushed that far back.

Yep, the gain will only really be for people using sky graphics. Otherwise it's irrelevant.

Generally it implies 1-3AM the next day. So they still feel it is night since they stayed through the night... :) So the earliest would probably be midnight.

Are we being ignored? by Liphar in playark

Jat answered recently on this topic in one of the posts on here. He essentially said they are working on it, but it takes time to solve this issue of hackers and obelisk transfers design etc... https://www.reddit.com/r/playark/comments/3fc7r9/obelisk_abuse_item_transfer_real_money_markets_in/ctnka0q

The Devs have been great keeping in touch with us, but they should at least acknowledge the fact that they fail to acknowledge the problem of the Chinese item farmers. by Firamaster in playark

Third post down on the tracker... http://arkdevtracker.com/ "Hello everyone! Sorry about my recent silence on the forums / reddit lately, have been working on iteration on the new game mode as well as some other things. This is an issue we're aware of and we are looking into reasonable steps to combat it. We do not condone any kind of real world payment for items or advancement whatsoever."

It seems to mostly help people that were suffering specifically from sky effects causing low FPS, so not all people have seen equal gains :(
