I'm convinced that the problem is that bosses are geared exclusively towards massive tribes. Which basically requires on PVP. And colossal tribes are pretty much always full of raging dickheads making life even more difficult for new players. Which means the overpowered large groups are the only ones capable of beating bosses and getting even MORE of an edge in harassing solo players than they already do. Fucking terrible system when you think about it.

_The Best times of ARK was the time when players could only use rafts for long distance travels, tribes would have sailed around the island to bring their newly tamed dinos back to base or migrating to their new base location and the costal raiders using rafts was a thing._ _I remember when Stone Dino gates, Chitin armour, Plant X & longneck Rifle where the best gear one could have. There was a time when having a bronto was a big title and the battle between a Rex & Spino was the biggest show of the game._ _If you even remember how much attension those Pinguines were getting with their fancy hats._

[@joshhamilton3730]

This is the reason I'm so glad I played ASA at launch, before Cryos. For a few weeks we got to relive a little of those times. Taming Rexs on carno and rafting them back to base, walking the boss team to the nearest obelisk, a full team marching into the Tek cave on stegos and Rexs not sure if we'd make it out the other side... It lasted maybe 4-5 weeks on official PVE where people didn't push as hard as the PvP megatribes.

​@@joshhamilton3730I think cryo pods kinda suck a ton of enjoyment out of the game. I miss it being a big deal to bring your tames back to base protecting them or dramatically marching your war party of dinos across the map for a raid. Flying everywhere and throwing out your tames like pokemon kinda changes the entire feel of the game for me in alot of ways. I miss pre cryo pod ark for sure.

[@swshaffer12]

The introduction of leedsichthys ruined rafting, in my opinion. I think they should have made it so that only the alpha leed attacks the raft. Would have been very Moby-Dick-esque, being attacked by the "white whale."

[@kvlord1212]

The memeries of the old day of ark when multiplayer was in the fix and servers had high pop, the attachment you would get with your tames as they were everything and having a rex put the fear of god in the entire server. I remember taking over a entire server for almost a year because no one had the power to take on my army of 17 rexes with lvls upwords of 500 being so powerful that i was able to rage entire wars against several large tribes at a time and always just running down people as a mere solo player. My control over the server was so great that the owner admired my determination as a solo even if most fights were along side my alliances but the feeling to be a god was the greatest thing but now its nothing to have a fea trexes and the lvls of dinos getting as high as 1394 that i have ever seen amongs bases that have so many turrets that even a army of tek stegs with the assistance of mek rocket pods drawing the fire cant get through when it use to be either you were online to defend your base or you were praying that you didn't get raided while offline and to think the owner sent me a video of the entire server unite as one to fight through my few online allies defending my home in a almost 4 hour raid by the entire server just to take out my 17 trexes that ruled the server with a iron claw and it was hart breaking to watch as they got overwhelmed by packs of raptors stegos pts and yet standing strong as my rexes fell one by one leading to the servers victory of the raid until they discovered what was held within my home as i had grown a pack of dire wolves as a last line of defense and to see them destroy the raiders and send them into chaos was amazing tho i did not lose my base and it barely survived i took the loss of it to see the server unite under a common goal.

[@kvlord1212]

And in my thousands of hours in ark nothing beats the feeling of taking my first dino Wich was a dodo in single player I lost my mind when I lost those files to corruption because of bugs but I will always remember him R.I.P little fella

When no one could take gigas 😂 then we started breeding Gigas by floating them in water. Good times man.
