@JordanLaws0n @Jade_Playsgames Just giving you the realities of business management. I worked at corporate Macy's before Wildcard. I've seen way too much of it.
@JordanLaws0n @Jade_Playsgames If it leaks, it's not a good situation for anyone.
@Jade_Playsgames And we've talked to companies that do QA before everyone asks to see if we can hire a QA team. The problem with that is they dont know ARK. And knowing ARK to catch the bugs we need means thousands of hours.
Most development time is invested in researching issues. When you can reduce that time, you get things out faster (for everyone). I know release parity is important to the community and it's something we will try to get closer to.
There are reasons why things sometimes go to PC first. With something like a big DLC or map, it allows us to quickly identify platform issues vs. game issues. IE Is it a problem with the core, XBOX, or PS4? Doing this cuts dev time dramatically.
@Chandle38952991 We can try and eliminate these things in the future. Believe me, your feedback is being heard.
@musgo_the @Peteralonsus With that said, we see and hear the communities feedback on this and we'll try harder in the future.
XBOX and PS4 survivors, get ready to meet Deinonychus! Valguero will be going live on July 19th 17:00 UTC!

@JordanLaws0n @Anu_Zababa @itzCunty @evilmrfrank It's easy to tell when there is less meshing when you know every time someone has been under the mesh.
@JordanLaws0n @Anu_Zababa @itzCunty @evilmrfrank And fixes to the mesh go into the patch notes. Tons have gone into all maps (still more to do). My point isn't to say we've fixed all these things, just to let you know that things are being done.
@JordanLaws0n @Anu_Zababa @itzCunty @evilmrfrank You may think that isn't enough and, sure there's lots more to do - but to say we aren't doing anything isn't true. Some players aren't feeling the results of these measures yet but progress is being made.
I'll put one of these together for the game mode conversation that's pinned on STA. I'll share when it's ready. The community will know exactly what's being shared with the dev team. Do keep in mind it doesn't mean you're making the decisions - but that you have a voice in them
Full Transparency: ThIs is what I'll be presenting as community feedback to the current beta with the design/dev team. If you don't see your opinion, and you have one (related to the beta) check out the thread on STA
If you're requesting me on Instagram and trying to send messages asking about Valguero release or ARK issues... Bad form. Announcement this week (there!!!). Let's hope you all don't get me fired.
@zekemorales91 How do you know if you have the best if you haven't sought out a diverse pool of talent?
Current Mood:
"Increased diversity is needed in the industry, too, so that those making the games better represent those playing games" 🙏
@goonson @KISHKO_ Further clarification: Some of these things we might do, this was more of to let it known that I will share this info with the design and dev team.
