So now that it's a day later after release and some patches have apparently been applied......is the game still running like crap? I have a 970 for referral purposes. Best to wait some time to see how things pan out I suppose.

I've managed to play this game once, and only in Single player...Think I'll just wait until they optimize this a bit until I try again.

THE PENETRATOR posted:why don't they release patch notes? wtf Patch Notes (Latest v1.602) v1.602: Blackscreen issue should be fixed! Added more official servers. Fixed a few potential chat crashes. Working on ShaderModel 4 support and singleplayer performance reloading.... v1.601: Full servers will still appear in server-list now v1.60: Listing/Refreshing of servers fixed v1.557: * Chatbox can no longer be opened in singleplayer games. * Rebuilt the game content with 2K textures rather than 4K for most. This may help prevent disk and memory thrashing that could have adversely affected performance on some machines. v1.556: * Reverted loading screen to static image, might eliminate "black screen of death" when loading into singleplayer mode. * Made a backend change that may have fixed the backend server issues. We have to update ALL of the servers to fully fix it, but we are gradually rolling that out over this night.

Dev Plan For Today (Wednesday June 3) - Massive perf jump from fixing singleplayer/multiplayer loading bug - DirectX 10 Shader Model 4 support (eliminate SM4 cooker error) - Determine why some people don't get content downloaded -- 32-bit OS? - Online more servers (including EU and Asia and Oceania as well as more NA servers) - Feature and Content Patch v1.70 -- goodies goodies goodies (full list incoming) - Mod Tools and first example mod map (wave-based survival): "Raptor Rapture"  Upcoming Patch: v1.70: * Fixed a Localization crash * AZERTY French keyboards can now rebind keys properly * Initial DirectX10 Shader Model 4 support -- ubersky won't yet render :-P * Player counts on the server browser are now correct and accurate * Getting "Winded" in water no longer prevents you from swimming upwards completely -- you now just swim upwards more slowly, and so are less likely to absolutely drown. * Pause Menu now lists the Server name * Server browser now has a list of "Survivor's Servers", upon whihc you have a survivor, Favorite Servers, and Friend's Servers * Fixed an issue where NPC's would not attack often at lower-FPS times on servers * Broadcast Server messages now force the chat to appear (typically used to notify of server maintance) * Bonus Item Skins (Stomped Glasses, Cowboy Hat, Noble Saddle) are permanent, locked to your character, and given again after respawn (dropping them simply removes them if you don't want them -- if you want to keep them, apply them to an item). * Fixed some graphical artifacts with the water, waterline, and underwater particles * Slingshot torpidity multiplier reduced slightly * Inventory Key can now be rebound * Arrow keys now turn rather than strafe, and can be rebound

Is there a trick to joining full servers? Every official server has been 70/70 or 0/70 no matter how many times I refresh. Any attempt to join puts me in a perpetual loading screen that requires a force quit. edit: How do you queue up? 96 spacejam fucked around with this message at 06:21 on Jun 4, 2015 |

Having experimented with and been largely disappointed by virtually every combat option available to people sub level 25, I really cannot stress enough the efficacy of weaponized raptors. Tame those feathered fucks and they will take care of you; even more so when you saddle them up.

This thing is so fast. Btw the two back paths out of the base are now walled. If you want to bring a dinosaur in either have it jump off a cliff or use the front route.

I killed a T-Rex and he turned out to be lugging around a recipe for some berry-based chili. To honor him I used the meat from his corpse to craft this fine dish

How long does it take for the compost box to work? It's been full of dinosaur poop for several hours. I also can't get my plant plot to grow more than a seedling, but I think that's because I need proper fertilizer..

The meat was spoiling faster than the taming bar was ticking up, so you really need the prime meat for the big guys.

Bows seem pretty weak. Maybe I'm doing it wrong, but it took ~20 arrows at full draw to kill a turtle. Also the terrain inland is cool.

Every time I die when I respawn the world no longer has stones in it. Like zero stones, anywhere. So I'm unable to build my first basic tool. Also, not even the official servers are saving my character!

Game looks sweet but I'm going to wait a bit and live vicariously through you goons before I invest in it. So question that I didn't see answered in the OP (maybe it was). When you get knocked unconscious do you just sit there staring at a black screen until you come to? How long are you usually out for?

This is fun, can't get into any servers. When I find one that isn't full it just sits on the screen with "ARK" and a big A forever. Refund time I think.

For people who can't get into servers, are you only looking at the official server list? There is an option in the lower left corner to look at unofficial servers and many of them have 20-40 players on them with a max of 70. I haven't really had any trouble finding a good server to play on.

For a lot of people, me included, you have to wait at the loading screen for an unreasonably long time before the game loads. Before you refund I would try joining an unofficial server with plenty of space and give it time to load and see if that works. I was in the same boat but now I'm having a bunch of fun with the game.

gently caress those giant scorpions. I was all set up with a campfire, barely surviving the cold in the mountains on my first run through and I started hearing this weird tapping noise. I can't really see anything since I'm crouching near the fire just to keep the sliver of health I still had, and then this giant insect face and claws appear through the flames right in front of me. I killed it somehow before dying (still died from the cold later), but holy poo poo. Edit: Are creatures attracted to fire? I swear I heard/saw more dinos/scorpions while I was huddling near that campfire than almost any other time I was playing.
