Not only that, but the fact is that some of these paid-for dinos have insane stats and create a huge advantage for whoever buys them. I agree, the idea of someone making money off of any game is awesome. However, this shit is also creating an unfair gaming experience on official servers. The fact that you can't log into a random Ark server and expect a fair gaming experience is why a lot of people stop playing.

As someone who has played on smalltribes in the competitive scene for a long time, i can say that cheaters are a huge problem. I, and the people i played with, didnt want servers to be wiped simply because the late endgame was fun for us. If we got raided by cheaters, we can spam report them and call a dev to ban them. The markets arent run by devs, at least not in its entirety, and are actually run by semi-normal people. That isnt to say that the devs dont have a part in it, they most likely do, made evident mostly by the fact that cc flak still exists.

No I think they made it free so there are more new players coming in to buy more items on the official servers, I honestly think the cheaters might be another reason but I would say if the devs are running the black market why wouldn't they want as many new players as possible which increases the likelihood of people buying stuff.

[@OrbanjoGaming]

I was mainly referring to the PvP side of the game when I mentioned the server wipes. The cheating isn't nearly as bad in PvE for obvious reasons, although I haven't played on official PvE servers pretty much since I started playing so I can't really comment on that. I'm fine with Ark 2 having microtransactions as long as it's not P2W.

[@armymedic999]

@@OrbanjoGaming i wouldn't doubt a subscription type service but the only things they could offer would b a permanent online storage for ur dinos/items like the ob but without 24hr timer. Unique skins or color mutations only available to subscribers. Any form of multipler would b a p2w item. Wc has to make these items cause running servers ain't cheap

[@OrbanjoGaming]

@@armymedic999 I think the Obelisk upload is P2W on PvP servers. That's basically no risk to your best items 100% of the time. I think they should just sell cosmetics like Bionic dino skins or like you mentioned, the color mutations. It's hard to say if Skeletal dino skins would be P2W too. They blend really well with the terrain which gives the people that have those a slight advantage over people that don't.

I'm sorry 50 grand a month😰

[@somedude2433]

1 your talking about a very small amount of the player base and 2 it’s only pc and smalls on Xbox that are cheaters. Consoles are fine on official. So to blame the whole game is just silly. And it doesn’t wipe for exactly the reason of the game. It’s a survival game. The longer it runs the continuing of the “survival”. And bugging drakes out and getting the devs to replace it is silly. Even if you lost a max level 450 Dino they will only spawn you a perfect tame Dino level 225 So them spawning in a legitimately lost Dino to game mechanics is not a problem. There’s lots of problems. Selling in game items is not a problem. Games themselves try to do the same thing. 🤷🏻‍♂️. Whoever takes ark 1 over will be wise to have a continuous non wiping main server system and a side one that wiped every month. Just like now. In fact wiping doesn’t keep cheaters away. It makes it worse. Don’t believe me ? Hop on ark poc gen 2 on wipe day. You’ve never ever seen so many cheaters ever anywhere. And that’s on a freshly wiped server. See why they didn’t bother wiping official. There’s no reason too.

I mean okay it’s an issue, but to be honest, the idea of being able to sell hard work online like this as a seasoned ark player is pretty cool. At least on PvE. And I’ve been playing ark since the year it came out, warts and all. (When the swamp was first introduced and the snow biome didn’t even exist bro lol) I get that people can “cheat” through this method but if you have an issue with them, just find a new server? The one thing I’ve noticed is that most of the complainers of ark are PvPers, which tells a lot about the toxicity of those people on the servers. If you all just quit being little, sorry to say it, bitch babies, and accept the fun side of ark like in PvE with trading and a nice, balanced economy. The game can be much more enjoyable. There’s a huge potential for role play too on this game but most of you devalue the game with the hunger for power. It’s stupid and pointless! Just enjoy the game and admire people’s awesome Dino’s!
