Also lots of reports of Gen2 using more RAM and yes it does. It isn't necessarily a bug, but it is something the engineering team is looking into.
I can't respond to all your questions but know I do see the things about:
- HLNA Store - Mission Bugs - Dedi Servers
The team is aware of these things (and more). And I know you don't want a WC ETA 😏
Things will pick up speed next week.
Don't let the "2018" on the thread create date fool you. That's why we started putting "Updated On" in the thread title.
Forums.. 😭
Not even me 😅
I swear no one goes to (where the patch notes are).
Thanks for your support!
Yo!
Updates are going out for all platforms now and the patch notes are updated. The team is largely still rejuvenating but they are working on several issues that have been reported.
Likely to be bigger patches next week.
We'd like to extend a special thank you to the exceptionally talented Maddie Madden @tigermadden for recording thousands of lines of HLN-A dialogue with such range & emotion & playing off David Tennant's Rockwell so beautifully!
You brought our favourite lil robot to life! 🌹
How do I kick back and relax? With ARK memes. Wonderful execution.
P.S. Still waiting on the network restart for PSN transfer.s
Exceeded my tweet limit and word count for the day.
Kidding, I need to recoup. Running on sheer passion and joy seeing you get to be able to play.
PSN transfers should be back on in an hour'ish with a restart. Thanks for hanging out. (Notification might go through Discord)
✌🏿
We found one. Much love to you. Don't mute me!!
@ComplexMinded As someone who doesn’t play anymore, I’m happy to see a community manager so active in the community. It’s a gift to the players, but probably more of a curse to you sometimes lol stay strong.
Eyes are on this now. I don't have an ETA yet but they are working on it.
Sometimes I do wonder what the non-ARK players that follow me are thinking right now.
*MUTE*
🤣
So how do we improve for ARK 2 and beyond since we do have some limitations?
We become smarter about when those dinos need to do calculations, how complex they are, and how often they go dormant.
A combo of those things allows us to have more dinos on a map.
And in a couple days to a week it will be filled with thousands upon thousands of dino's.
Add those tamed dinos onto the ones you are spawning and you have significantly more overhead.
To clarify, dino's do hibernate - ie go dormant when they aren't seen.
Every dino in the game isn't always actively running calculations. But if it's in render range it is.
"Map is too dead, seems empty"
You do realize adding more dino's (A.I) is what affects map and server performance right?
Every dino has to run a calculation (or several) depending on what it's doing.
I see your reports of PSN transfers. Trying to circle up with the team.
I think its important to get a GUT reaction and then another one in time to see how they differ.
