Community Crunch 358: Community Creature Voting Opens!

I’m honestly tired of seeing the Bastion Beetle, we just had a huge bug win a vote, i want some variety in this game creature wise! Moa Squad!

no news on asa 

#SaveOfficial

#ValveTakeover

No one cares at this point, they are just trying to avoid the ARK2,  ASA and other s-h-i-t-show. 

Don’t forget to read the suggestions before voting folks!

Tons of interesting and inspired designs this round, and WC is heavily influenced by the mechanics in these submissions. Even rhynio shares a good amount of stuff with its suggestion!

May the best creature (hopefully gigantoraptor) win!

why not both?

Who cares about new dinos... Save Official.

I cannot believe the backlash has yet to be addressed.

I also cannot believe that after moving the official wiki from fandom/gamepedia (presumably for the same reason other games moved, due to malware being served in ads) that Wildcard would utilize yet another malware ad serving organization (Overwolf) which requires installing its software.

Mod.io allows monetizing mods, too, and was announced to be the cross-platform solution for Ark2, so why is it not also the platform of choice for ASA?

The silence is deafening.

You have lost a lot of support because of the forceful move from official you people are the worst personaly I have been playing official for 2 and a half years and 300 days in total play time and I have met people with 500 you are evil for just ignoring this you make me sick KILL THE SNAIL

I've not kept entirely up to date with the modding scene, is it safe to assume come ASA all ASE mods will get the unplug treatment?

Because adding more than one is invalidating the nature of the vote. They were smart to not do it for vote 3, hopefully they don't do it now too.

Color spawns are still abysmal. I have not found any of the colors I need for my projects because they're so sparse. Turn up the color spawn ratio!

Is there any particular reason tropical crystal wyvern heirs can't lay eggs in the wyvern hive on console? Yeah, we can passive tame tropicals, but ember and blood crystals can also be passive tamed in the wild and their heir variants still lay eggs. Why were tropicals singled out? Let tropical crystal heirs lay eggs!

Your silence on the backlash is speaking volumes about how little our voices are actually heard. ASA is going to crash and burn and Ark 2 will follow now that we know how little we are valued

Where ASA gameplay??

Which console you on? In PS4 I see them in nests, albeit at a lower rate.

I remain convinced WildCard should hold a separate voting round for abilities once the creature has been elected, but noone ever listens to me 😁

Dudes, ignoring the backlash is going to have a poor result on your end.

You can plug your ears and pretend everything's cool all you want, but a huge amount of players are angry at you, countless people lost any interest in buying ASA or Ark 2, and even several news websites have articles decrying your recent decisions. 

I'm keeping up to date to see if you change your tone, but unless you do, you're permanently losing me and several other players from ever purchasing from you again... You're showing you can't be trusted.

I recommend adding new DLCs and creatures to the OG ark at the same time as ASA (seriously, that's something I WOULD buy, not the same game I've already bought at full price), and/or lowering the price of ASA further for people who already own the DLCs, as is standard for a remaster.

As is, you're still in a pretty bad spot, and you're probably going to pay for it.

and that´s why we put the beetle on the bottom of the ranking

Ark’s officially dead from this point… who cares about new dinos? 
 

it’s an Easter event yet most servers have 1-3 players of them, everyone’s quit…

Closing official servers in 4 months forcing players to a paid upgrade yet no asa gameplay at all?

wont be buying asa anyways as I’m not starting over on the same game I’ve been playing 7 years, I’d rather just wait for ark2 but will probably be playing other games by time that comes out. (If it ever does)… ASA will just be more lag and bugs with slightly better graphics, testing ue5 on the Guinea pigs in preparation for ark2

Xbox. I've been raiding the wyvern hive on Crystal Isles at least once a day, sometimes twice a day, for the last week and a half, and spending several hours there. I have never seen a single tropical egg there, only blood and ember eggs. When I commented on it in Discord I was told tropical heirs don't lay eggs on console. The tropical heirs themselves are everywhere in the area, but there's never a single egg from them

I feel like that'd take a ton of work to pull off since you'd have to hold a vote for every ability. With how bastion was before the OP more or less got harangued into finally scaling it back down to something closer to its original concept I can't even begin to fathom that headache. Then there's the issue of people intentionally voting to make things crazy overpowered unless they leave out the more game breaking abilities in the vote

That's pretty weird. Also not sure who told you that but I've got certain seen tropical eggs (granted the server's settings are tweaked). From my experience embers have the highest egg rate followed by bloods and then tropicals.

They will see the sales in september... probably only youtubers will buy it, cuz they need content.. GL Wildcard.

I'm on official. The egg rates for embers and bloods seem about the same, I usually end up with half and half. But never a single, solitary tropical egg

I just want to see some ASA gameplay and more information on that, especially if we're really 3 months out.
