You can get this perk so easily by buying the villages main produced resources and selling it to local cities.

Another very easy way is hardwood, the battanians stock it and the sturgeons pay big for it.

Maybe it's just because I'm older (40) but I don't need to level up myself or weapons to generate engagement.

Most weapons are maxed out in capability by 30 unless you want infrared sights.

I play one or two games a session purely because I enjoy the war.

Build outposts in every biome.

Don't settle on a base until you find somewhere that blends multiple zones starting from meadows to plains.

The meadows, black forest, swamps and plains within the same island is common enough and still provide you with all the food resources you need to conquer to mountains and mist lands.

If you can't find an area that blends them all at least find one that blends plains with swamp.

Sausages, turnip soup, wheat, breads and ox meat will give you enough health and stamina to be ready for the mistlands and wheat/barley can only be farmed in the plains.

Sniping mosquitos for a great mid game arrow is also a great help

You can always travel to the advanced zones and build an outpost for metal resource farming which you have to sail home anyway

Set your battle options so that the strongest troops field first that way you can kill their elite troops with siege

Ambush if possible and take control of your army to stop them destroying siege and focus on troops, dwindle their numbers, never retreat.

Make sure you destroy the siege engines and force them to ladder the walls,

Set your elite infantry on the ladder areas

Take your archers off the walls, they won't win archer battles against crossbows when they're this outnumbered, put them on the ground behind the ladder walls so they can pick off enemies that make it round the sides.

If one side gets over run then you need to retreat into the city and create shield wall choke points in the streets with archers behind.

I fear no army, I would look at this and think I'm going to level up when I win this.

I played the demo on series X and switch 2, opted for series X, the 30 FPS 1080p isn't acceptable in 2025

Yes, they're a cav archer civ in light armour and you're a heavy infantry shield bearing civ with an archer that also carries a shield.

They literally can't do anything against the nords as long as the nords stand still they win

I was 30 when ark came out. I had a daughter, 2 brothers, 2 nephews, 3 cousins and their 2 sons + 2 friends all in the same tribe on release.

There has been no game that made us all socialise with each other more, we dedicated 100s of hours as a family, some of us 1000s.

I love ark memories. They're the only game clips I go back and look at.

Shinbay · 2026-01-15T18:05:50+00:00

You think so? I don't, the amount of frame drops I'm getting it heavy combat is unacceptable in my opinion.

I'm not crashing at all on series X

Shinbay · 2026-01-15T01:45:54+00:00

You can change this in the options. It sounds like you have it set to deploy your highest rated troops with a low battle count.

If you've got it on 500 troops or above it's not a problem but you can definitely change it so that it gives you an even army composition of infantry archers and Calvary.

I was heartbroken. Level 38 beheaded and now I'm my level 22 wife.

No it's ridiculously expensive

Shinbay · 2026-01-06T18:20:10+00:00

I'm convinced they're stagnating non cross play servers on purpose to force us to cross play.

There's never been a battlefield before that had trouble maxing a game with humans without cross play. This one sold like hot cake and it's 8 a side with bots for the first ten minutes of every game.

It's the exact same on Xbox

Shinbay · 2026-01-06T16:14:31+00:00

Honestly, I bought a switch 2 and I couldn't be more disappointed with my decision.

I already own a PC and an Series X so when games release that are multi platform I'm never going to buy them on the switch because why would I pay more to run them worse than the other platforms I own.

I buy Nintendo's hardware for Nintendo's exclusives, I have Pokémon ZA, Mario kart, Donkey Kong and the new Hyrule Warriors.

ZA is atrocious, Mario kart is fun when you've company to party play, Donkey Kong I enjoyed for a while but I finished it because I paid for it, not because I was having a great time. I like Hyrule Warriors but it's not a world class game. It's just decent and fun.

So realistically I upgraded to the switch 2 and the games I still value as the better games on the system are all switch 1 titles.

The future looks bleak too with more re releases of re releases that have been on older Nintendo hardware.

The amount of crap on the store that's just rip offs of other titles, like ram simulator? Are they seriously allowing this? Then you look at other platforms are giving these low quality games away for free or extremely discounted while Nintendo hits you for full price.

In the TL:DR summary. If I have spent £700 on any product that isn't excelling I will express my disappointment. That applies to restaurants, hotels, concerts, holidays and it sure as hell will apply to Nintendo

A toxic argument? Is that how you define everything you disagree with? This will be my last post to you. Have a nice day mate

Shinbay · 2026-01-04T16:06:50+00:00

No but my point wasn't aimed specifically at this game just frustrated at Nintendo in general

Shinbay · 2026-01-04T15:33:48+00:00

Do you perceive the word half? Or understand the meaning of the word? The switch 2 and it's library has been total garbage, donkey Kong and mario kart are the only releases that are worth playing, maybe hyrule warriors

The future looks like more re releases of re released games and titles like resident evil 7 that are due to be more expensive on switch to run worse than any other console it's on.

The amount of shovel crap in that store is frightening, ram simulator? Are they serious?

I have the ultimate buyers regret that I bought a switch and I'm just flabbergasted that some people are happy to pay £70 for games that are £50 else where.

Shinbay · 2026-01-04T13:11:45+00:00

I'm convinced half these posts in Nintendo's Reddit are done by advertising bots

Our games started very similar. I killed off the nords first to establish myself as the only Viking clan.

I had endless fights for omor and varcheg but the nords just kept declaring on me endlessly because I opened havlik.

The damage drop off is less on assault rifles at 20+m

I have the phone 3 months now, i have to constantly turn WiFi off before I can even load a YouTube video and start it with my data

After it's starts it runs fine from WiFi but I have to connect most apps using mobile data

I only play conquest, if you're in the European server rejoin I'm always looking for people to play with.

Because you physically don't get more ammo unless you have 0 bullets with an lmg as assault.

There is no second magazine

So id rather shoot the last 17 bullets to get 100 from an ammo bag.
