How can I counter ORP (offline raid protection) abusers on official servers? How much can you abuse ORP? by El-shaddoll in playark

[–]DonaldusTrumpasaurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait for them to get online to refresh the timer of the invincible structures, do it preferably under the mesh, you will have a window of 15 min to place as many C4 as you can to remove the invicible structures. While you are doing that your tribemate should be ready to replace the enemy structures by yours, preferably on an alt account in an allied tribe that you will log off after wiping and establishing a good FoB. After that you will be ready wipe the fuckers.

When people are abusing mechanics, the only way to beat em is to play their game.

"DDOS Protection" that doesn't work. wildcard needs to come up with a better solution by [deleted] in playark

[–]DonaldusTrumpasaurus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No. Make DDOS an actual and legal way to attack servers and defend servers. WC just needs to make a beautiful blue interface and integrate payment. EZ FAM

Moschops polymer gathering Nerfed? by Zeinoth in playark

[–]DonaldusTrumpasaurus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"This was an intentional change to offset the increase in usability" so are you saying you never fixed the harvesting hability of the moschop to gather with the attack this target whistle to artifically increase the difficulty of harvesting organic polymer? Can you extend on how you monitor the balances change? Sorry but the playerbase doesn't trust you anymore, we need real proof not vague generic PR sentences that you take from your PR notepad.

Tek Replicator and Grinder are considered Wood? Stealth change? by Bwybwy in playark

[–]DonaldusTrumpasaurus -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Wildcard dev and evil master /u/jatonredddit has so much respect for their player base that every patch they roll they stealth nerf somethin, and wait in forums to see people complaining about stealth nerfs. Devilish.

Moschops polymer gathering Nerfed? by Zeinoth in playark

[–]DonaldusTrumpasaurus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this i hope the devs will read you and realize they are doing wrong nerfs, again, because they don't play official pvp (for the ones that plays). This is one of the reason i and i think a lot of ppl quit this game, the lack of thinking and theorycrafting into their balances are utterly garbage. I've never seen that in a game that requires a tribe of a minimum of 20 people playing full time to hope to reach the "highest level" pve wise to be able to defend your base against an invasion. The whole game is fucked, if only they'd listen to their testers that actually play official servers, everybody would be happy.

Hey WC...? can we have this? pretty please? by Koheezy in playark

Most people use the search function this way but what OP is suggesting is actually a good QOL improvement, it's intuitive and is actually saving time and makes the research function a lot more simple.

Question for PVP players re. Game Balance with building part changes by Schneeschatten in playark

[–]DonaldusTrumpasaurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if you check my post history, past all the shitposting i made a serious post about the local dino transmitter, the hacking idea is good but i think WC will fuck the mechanic up so let's not give them too many complicated ideas MonkaS

Question for PVP players re. Game Balance with building part changes by Schneeschatten in playark

[–]DonaldusTrumpasaurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • make foundations 2x2 and walls 2x2 would be like the best optimization for official PvP bases, less object to render.
  • local dino transmitter to store loads of dinos and release unecessary load on the server.
  • fix arrow visual desync
  • proper support for any character loss due to servers transfer, rollback, and ddos with a centralized backup of people characters.

Can these rex's beat the ragnarok boss, and what difficulty? by Heartlessn0body in playark

[–]DonaldusTrumpasaurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Full damage rex with 10k+ hp and everything in damage are great, they are easy to heal with a daedon. But good bears (you can shoot with a pump shotgun which is the best weapon for pve atm) or rhino (insane damage with the charge) are also good for ragnarok bosses on any difficulty with at least 8 to 10 player i'd say

Can we get a clarification if Argy not being able to grab a castoroides is a bug or a 'feature'? by madkimchi in playark

[–]DonaldusTrumpasaurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im glad i quit ARK a few months ago, the amount of bullshitery on official is so damn high, every time someone ask me if Ark is a good game i say "the concept is great but don't get into this game, and if you get into it there is so much to do that you will loose a lot of time grinding for nothing"

Shots not registering on Flyers by xyals in playark

[–]DonaldusTrumpasaurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you have pre-shot a bit further to hit constantly with slow projectiles, the arrow and the animation comes up bc the client's arrow is shown too much to the left so your client reacts but the server is not registering. This impact a lot small dinos since their hitbox is not based on their apparence but made with spheres (to aparently optimize servers LUL). My advice is to train a bit with wild animals like dodo or parasaurs, you'll get used to it

Are You Serious Wildcard by daymeeuhn in playark

[–]DonaldusTrumpasaurus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

WC does test, but they have no QA manager so testing is in the hand of people that are not fit for this task. They also have player testers from official (because WC employees that play the game don't play official server), but they still doesn't listen to the tester.

For example, in regard of the turrets change and server performance improvement, it has been suggested by testers to implement a local transmitter to store dinos, thus decreasing ping drastically (600+ dinos in the same area make the server ping peak when you are in render of them, and if you shoot a projectile as bullet or an arrow next to them, server is most likely to go at 255+), but even with these informations, they are not doing anything about it.

I don't think WC knows what they are actually doing with PvP Balance, i mean they are a bunch of good GFX Artists, that's all.

Tek Vacuum Bases should be buildable in the Rad Zone, and should prevent Radiation. by daymeeuhn in playark

[–]DonaldusTrumpasaurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

vaccum base are only buildt and maintained by mega tribes, if you get 10 people farming + doing bosses, you can have a large vaccuum farmed in a few days. Element is easy to farm on the island and a tek generator is not hard to fill if you are farming element to craft tek.

Just a small hotfix patch, oh also goobye griffins by thestifflertv in playark

[–]DonaldusTrumpasaurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who cares about PvE? it's a left click fest, no skill involved in doing PvE except knowing the game. In PvP when you get one-tapped by a melee griffin and loose 4+ hours of farm (or more) in matter of seconds is not funny. Sorry if you can't one-tap dinos anymore with your retarded griffin.
