ARK Survival Evolved Dev Tracker

Good morning!

Rates will go to 2x for taming, XP, and harvesting following the event. All other rates will go back to 1x.

Just bringing up 1x:

Everyone looking at 1x rates like:

Talked to the team, Summer Bash should wrap up around 5PST tomorrow.🌞

I want to write myself into ARK lore. I need to create myself as an ARK Boss. Who knows an artist I can commission? I'm going to be the first boss to kill you with #PositiveVibes

Fun fact: I wrote the grad student explorer notes for Aberration.

It's OK to disagree and still walk away with mutual respect at a human level.

Often the things we disagree on are subjective anyway when it comes to a grand definition.

It's OK to disagree and still be cool.

@ladyteruki @mdfriedrick ANY wrongful act. So what we're arguing about is where it's used. And people believing it shouldn't be used in this context.

@ladyteruki @mdfriedrick But I agree that it shouldn't be used lightly so I will refrain.

I get it's a sensitive term and it's often used in domestic issues. But using it in this format means no disrespect to other places it's used. The term can be applied widely.

Blaming WC for "allowing" the cheating is kind of victim-blaming isn't it? 😜 Just stop cheating lol.

Just imagine, if we could use all this time we're dedicating to cheaters for other development reasons. -sigh-

But the work continues 🔨. On a call about several issues the team is tracking and working on. Cheating has become its own game. -double sigh-

Good weekend?

You asked for hints as to what's in the upcoming balance and QoL update and I like to torment you so...

TEK turrets bopped a lil
Increases on some spoil timers
Extended time on races on console STOP YELLING ABOUT IT
Dino love
No more bby wander!

That's it. That's the leak 💧

My point: No service is immune to DDOS. It's a worldwide (serious) problem that takes a lot of resources to mitigate.

WHY CANT THE WORLD STOP DDOS!?!?!?!

Jokes people.. jokes.. But there is something serious going on.

Before people say I overhyped something (lol) - I'm just genuinely excited. What does that mean? It just means the team is working on a variety of ARK things that you'll hear about in due time.

When it's quiet, there's actually a whole bunch of stuff in the works 😎.
