[@fuzzynippleman]

Honestly. Yeah. It's kinda sad. I used to play every day and loved Small Tribes. I have 30k hours in ASE. The game wasn't playable since speed hacks and ASA isn't a finished game. How the fuck can you be a solo without ratholes??

[@devastation5943]

Rota bro the crash out was hilarious man I enjoyed this video ❤

[@DubTheGreat]

But tbh as an ase early access player wayyyy back then ,the rat holes or “mesh spots” was a thing that majority of all players didn’t know about and everyone built outside in the open. To be honest I started playing so early that finding all of the caves on the island was a thing that was hard,so even like the pearl caves weren’t so widely known about. There was a transition point where people started building in caves and ratholes on purpose and nobody built outside excluding mega tribe servers. So I kinda like the idea of all competition above ground however they’ve added tons of things since the last time in ark history of “outside” building 😅 they have made it unbalanced,every base outside is raidable

[@R0taderp]

ASE early access was different story. game was new, noone knew what to do. but now after almost 9 years everyone knows exactly what to do, where the base spots are and so on. the initial idea behind ASA was to fix ARK, fix cave meta, have a working dev support. thats what they were promising. now its the same game but worse

I’m in blue on cave on my server and got send a pic vid of a guy flying a argy into our base though a massive mesh hole you can grapple freely in the mesh all around in the mesh

[@R0taderp]

YES! thats the thing. all this bs is not stopping actual meshing. its just stopping solo players from having a chance xD

[@bigshotcj1966]

Can tell the KZbin bobs from actual ark survivors, soon as these clowns seen you online they were in a panic, great content as always!❤

[@justinhall1775]

Even at the end of ase you either joined a big tribe on ally server or got wiped constantly. There’s not a lot of reward for solo duo on small tribes. I’ve thought a point system would help with the amount of players in each tribe might help. Solo 10x, duo 9x, trio 8x so on. Not to mention finding a 6man tribe that are decent players Is very hard!!! So if you’re in one it’s much easier to hold a base and raid

[@Isaidunkownwtfyt]

[@X0XNightShadow]

And to add to the cryo pod issue it's better, we can't say it's not, ppl don't get pocket gigaed anymore, you can't pocket a stego into the front of a cave, in my Opinion land bases should be how we have to play, it removes caves but opens up for tame sniping, theres gotta be a happy medium, caves are unreliable due to the cryo changes but not hard to drop tower after tower after tower it's been done on my server and we've done it to several other servers but when it comes to getting into a cave it's just boils down to who has the most resources to keep throwing into the choke points

[@X0XNightShadow]

Negl here, this was the most true experience of the game at the moment, it's like this on island too it's like the map edges are fucked mechanics that are supposed to work don't it's just a mess atm

[@brandonparker2416]

Damn, thats crazy news. I just started back up and couldn't spawn in a effected location, it wasn't even a rat hole. Only now I know why. Well im done.

[@bobbythebuilder7109]

The bed spawning is what gets me.. can spawn in ANY rathole with no issue on any bed in any rathole on PVE.. but PVP cannot.. it must be something related to pvp anti measures in place currently? And will hopefully be an easy fix as it has no issues on PVE

[@happymelon1791]

I'm glad I didn't buy it when it came out and was on a discount, seeing all the videos that show the bugs and cheaters makes it clear that ASA is currently not worth buying and probably will never be. The early access state of the game is also an indicator that they'll probably never complete it and just add half finished dlc and features while claiming, "it's still in early access what do you expect".

[@bobbythebuilder7109]

Rota bro i dont think the whip works anymore. Either that or it needs to be fixed.. im sure youve learned this by now, but soon as your picked, shoot whatevers picked you with grapple hook and it releases you.. like i said im sure you know this by now, but for everyone else, keep a grapple hook on the ready all the time now

ASA sucks. My friends are back to playing ASE. I played with them for a while but quit because all the players left are super sweaty guys from smalls and I'm not about that life these days (even account sharing on unofficial... imagine). I'll play ASA for Ab launch, but that's the only thing that could bring me back. It's too bad, I have a lot of great memories of ARK, but the game is pretty dead now. Oh well, I appreciate you serving up the content anyway.

[@aandisegregate5208]

if they dont want people building in ratholes they need to block them up, they are spending a ton more resources/money paying someone to wipe bases rather than fixing the map/ratholes, also if theyve said ratholes are unintended building spots and will wipe without warning and you build there knowing that, then you can blame nobody but yourself and WC needs to do a much better job than what weve seen. this is WC tho expectations are very low at the best of times

Tbf it wasnt great on Island on release, but now its almost impossible to mesh island. Unfortunately it looks like theyve released Scorched with zero Mesh protection also and will work on it overtime.. probbably due to the pressure of the community asking to release maps quicker

[@R0taderp]

yea SE is so easy to mesh that i meshed myself a couple of times on accident. most pillars and basically every cave are easy to mesh... thats why noone understands these problems with not beeing able to spawn into beds on normal open world spots. and the community wasnt asking for ASA maps. they were asking for meta changes and way better dev support for ASE. but what we got was wildcard promising a lot of fixes for their new game ASA. rest is history...

[@El_Pickle7]

i dont understand, why dont they just make the mesh solid?

Nice

[@nikolajkvistpedersen5151]

If you need a chair or a dino to get into a rathole? Then i´d say it´s fair game to red gun it, since it´s a mesh spot.. All other ratholes that you can just walk into should definetly be fair game.

[@watchdog163]

Why would they say that about rat holes when they have intentionally made ratholes on these sloped stone pillars?

[@R0taderp]

i think either they didnt do any rathole intentionally.. or they made them on purpose at first but realised later that their anti mesh was making beds not work inside of those spots. as they dont want to put in work, they r now acting as if a rathole was always illegal :D

I struggle to understand how wildcard can’t realise ratholes are the single best thing keeping the game alive, more ratholes=more players bases survive, more ratholes=more bases for players to raid, more ratholes means more fun more raids less people get raided more people can build up quicker. I find it funny how the only people who don’t know what’s good for ark is wildcard, they keep coming up with the worst possible ideas for ark and time after time ruin there game. I don’t know if ur aware but there are about 10-12 of these big rock things on scorched earth that have a rathole at the top of them and most of them are very good base locations but not only can u not spawn in them but if u fly an argy into the side of any of them like simply just fly into the side you will go through the mesh and get right into the rathole making them the easiest raids ever. I know what I’m about to say is pretty impossible but I would love if the KZbin ark community somehow could interview one of the main devs and have a talk about wtf they are doing on a serious level like if you or for example hod (as I know he is very involved in how awful the dev team is) could have a 1 on 1 discord call or something with a main dev cause I genuinely want to know there thoughts on everything about ark I wonder if they think there game is good and they are doing the right thing, I would love to see you ask them stuff like how in the world do they think making ratholes illegal is a good idea at all, ask them how they haven’t managed to fix things, ask them about the fact random tames anti mesh and disappear just at random points on the map, ask them why at random times your character can’t JUMP (how u mess up being able to jump I don’t know) ask them how SIMPLY FLYING AN ARGY INTO A WALL MAKES YOU GLITCH THROUGH AND GET INTO THE MESH, ask them why in gods name they think a fire wyv being able to breath you off your tame is in any situation a good idea, I originally thought the dev team all had an iq of 20 but some of these ideas and things aren’t even 20 iq there like 10iq. If u do manage to interview one of them please tell them to think about it for more then 20 seconds before they add the most brain dead, stupid, game breaking addition or change to the game.
