    All Aberration, Extinction, Genesis Part 1, and Genesis Part 2 content is unavailable on Classic PvP. Does this mean no nets. If so then thank you snailgames.

    Please disable Gigas!! I have been playing every season since the first and Gigas have ruined any opportunity for other heavy hitters to be viable. 

     

    No one uses rexes, spinos, allos, brontos. Season One was incredible for the diversity in pvp!!!

    As others said before, pls disable gigas! It makes so many dinos useless, its just boring. For the last season it would be cool to go back to what classic used to be. No gigas and no quetzals, no nets and obviously also no carchas. actual classic please!

    Just for clarification in case you guys (Snailgames) somehow misinterpret the comments, when we say we want Gigas removed we also want Carchars removed. Nobody even mentioned them but this season already seems like it has them enabled as part of the ''new meta change''. Carchars will absolutely ruin the meta because they're just faster Gigas that don't rage. Please don't ruin the last classic season of Ark 1's lifetime. Classic season 2 was the golden age of the game. Every dino was useable in open world pvp and you could win if you were good
     

    Another point to get rid of Gigas and Carchars: Classic is advertised as a competitive cluster. The higher the skill gap is the more competitive the server is. Gigas and Carchars are 2 of the least skill based dinos in the game. Anyone can left click. In classic s2 you were rewarded for being good at flier pvp and foot pvp, both of which require a lot more skill than left clicking with a big dinosaur.

    Confirm the picture! Please remove the gigas! We want old classic PvP and we also want to use rexes, spinos, allos, carnos in PvP! But they are useless as long as there are gigs on the cluster!

    Nobody want Removed Gigas and Carchas i disagree with the comments before. Season 1 was without gigas and it went pretty fast boring and people quit early. It need take tons of time take out enemy dinos und ruin the gameplay running only with allos and tyhas to counter golems. Classic is good how it is. Or atleast when gigas removed the Rex etc must be damaged buffed.

    Do people really think that if they return the old settings, old online will return? A lot of things have changed since then. Now classic need gigas and everything else, except nets ofc.

    What they call classic here is really just a no tek cluster without cave building…

    Name 1 thing that goes to poop if Classic goes back to season 2 rules, you can't. There are plenty of counters to Golems as long as Mammoth buff is removed (Weight grapple, picking, stacking bleed from multiple bleed dinos etc, cannon(does like 3k pr shot), etc), and you actually need to be good to win open world fights without Gigas. The last few seasons of Classic has only had 1 thing matter for pushing: Giga melee. It sucks all of the skill out of the meta. With Mammoth buff enabled you can't even use fliers or anything to help win the Giga fight because you can't pick them, so whoever rolls the luckiest wild Giga melee wins the season.
    You're saying it ruins the gameplay because it takes tons of time to take out enemy dinos, but the only dinos that even take time to kill in the classic meta are Gigas, Golems and Reapers(Maybe Stegos but they have nerfed resistance). If Reapers and Gigas are removed the damage scaling fixes itself, Spinos and other land dinos will kill each other at a similar pace to how Gigas do since they have much less hp. The only dino that doesn't instantly die is Golems, but not being able to counter them is a skill issue not a balancing issue. 
    Removing the big munch munch dinosaurs that have no counters is what everyone (except you) wants.
    They tried seasons with them, now people are giving their feedback.

    (Classic season 2 also had servers with reaching 100 pop less than a month before it wiped. The ruleset worked and everyone loved it. Season 3 and onwards has had much lower pop even though the game has had similar player counts up until last year where Gen 2 killed it.)

    Ok I ended up writing an essay lol, if you have any arguments against my argument here I'll gladly explain to you why you're wrong.

    Yep! Nets came with Gen 2. Therefore, no nets (makes lots of sense).

    Remove net engram(pretty sure removing gen 2 content does that, just making sure) and disable mammoth buff, otherwise W season

    Leaving Gigas, Reapers and Quetz enabled is acceptable but the entire community would much rather have old classic back without Gigas making every other land dino useless. If you're worried about golems being too strong without Gigas like all the bobs said before season 3, you can just make them take normal damage from all dinos but leave their turret resistance so Gigas aren't needed.

    This is not meant as spam, rather a campaign to make Snailgames listen to us. SurviveTheArk mods please refrain from deleting all messages with this poster. It's on topic here. 

    Git good

    Saying nobody wants gigas removed is simply false. Look how many comments say to remove them. 

    Golems are easy to counter without gigas. Rockets, argy picks, gas nades, grapples--all other examples aside from allos and thylas to counter them. 

    There is nothing fulfilling in meat running someone's base with just a giga or two. It should be difficult and rewarding on both the attacking and defending sides.

    Remove gigas. There needs to be a skill gap in competitive pvp game modes not a bunch of bobs holding giga lines for hours. There is so many stackable bleeds. Let us utilise a larger range of dps tames!


    to add to the skill gap list also disable:

    -net gun engram (that comes with lost island).

    -mammoth buff.

    -quetzal platform build limit - to prevent 90% damage immune quetzals.

    -disable reaper

    tribes should be forced to outskill in classic not abuse a 5 tame meta.

    Dear Snailgames.

    Please no giga/carchar, quetz and reaper. 
     

    We want a more diverse PVP lineup for classic, just imagine a big fight with theries, spinos and rhinos clashing!

    Please remove mamoth buff, gigas & carcha, reapers, nets, tek rifle, these all make the meta horrible. Its supposed to be "classic" like old times ark, please make it more fun by removing these few things.

    The most people said how boring it was without gigas and how long it took to take down enemys golems etc. For me i dont care atleast the game is balanced and there is fun.

    Well, when the most people of a tribe decicede to commrnt here no gigas then your right xd. Atleast they could buff a bit spino, rex meele a bit to beat tanky dinos a bit faster.
