Imprint totally nonsene
I am talking only about "O-F-F-I-C-I-A-L S-E-R-V-E-R-S"

Hey devs again,

again I found a real new nonsense in the game. I speak only for "official Server"

After you implement the "Level 95" Saddle !, the really useless Titanosaur and the alpha mosa which nobody can defeat, I found a new fuss in the game.

Imprint:
Every 3-4 hours my baby dino want some care.

Hey devs...are you crazy ? I would like to sleep for 8 hours sometimes, go to work, go do some real life stuff. How should I do that....? Explain to me please !

Ah forgot the best thing: You lose everything if you forget "one" care in the meantime. This is really rewarding !

Yeah well if its not enough you can care "only by yourself". So you have to get up every 3-4 hours. Have fun with giga which takes 2 weeks. This-is-a-joke !

One time per day is ok, but noooo it has to be every 3-4 hours.

This game goes more and more bye bye...
Well...my post will be deleted anyway from devs...so enough said

Does your Dino Baby die, if you do not care every 3-4 hours? no?! so where's the problem?

The problem is that you can make it nearly 20% better. So this is a huge improvement and only for people who doesnt have a real life...

The real bad thing is that you loose the "whole" imprint for only one time no care...so you have to care every 3-4 hours even when it tooks a whole week in a line...

"one time" no care you loose all ! Even if you cared 10 times before. So everything is in vein.

This is so absolutely BS.

Ever heard asking for help from your tribemates?
Cause u ALL make complete no sence of this imprint if u don't ask for help from your tribemates when ur at work.
One other suggestion : only do breeding when u actually have time to take care of it like in the weekend

Only a single person can imprint.

It's funny seeing people chime in when it's clearly obvious they don't know what they're talking about.

unless you are ok with sharing your whole steam account with tribe mates and authorize their PCs to use it beforehand - they cannot help with imprinting in any way (except preparing kibbles).

But even then: imprinting is a bonus and thus is not mandatory. It is not hereditary so its useless for breeding purposes. If you want to breed imprinted dino then plan your schedule accordingly - breed and imprint over weekends.

Even on one off my server i was possible to imprint cause a tribemate his dino wanted care in about 30mins(was couple weeks ago but still) becaue i think it has something to do with the tribesettings,i always set everything to personal but tribe ridden and such so he could have set everything to personal even riding

Yeah mate...but how ? Imprints work only for "one" tribemate. So all the imprints have to go with that "one" person ! e.g Only person A can make the imprint. Person B cant do it ! So person A have to go every 3-4 hours there...

The whole system is totally ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

more like you have:
?AllowAnyoneBabyImprintCuddle=true
on your server.

On official servers it is impossible to care for baby for another tribemate.

Agree.
The current system is the biggest time sink ever seen in a game, and gives you something that can be lost in less than 2 minutes (or few seconds).
The funny thing is that usually people keep these perfect creatures in the "vault", using the normal ones instead.

Then Imprint every 4h if you think you need it (actually if you don't imprint, you get the same Dinos as before. so you lose NOTHING.).

Most stupid argument card that will always be drawn but is absolutely wrong. 2 minutes login can be done. Not everyone is a lazy b***.

If you are not willing... than that's how it is. but don't try to take it away for those who can. Time should always the most valueable recource. everything esle is pay2win. No sane Person wants the ones with the biggest wallets those with the biggest advantages. time based currency is the only fair system.

One week?!?! Sers, don't play on official servers. they are broken for multiple reasons (gather rate, xp, no cave flying, no turrets on platforms, alpha tribe tards, etc.)

Then don't start imprinting. as said, you get the same dinos as before the system. You DON'T lose anything. You just don't get the bonus dedicated/not lazy players get.

Edit: don't get me wrong. i disabled the imprint system on my server. so no one feels "forced" to log in every 4 hours.

Relax mate xd it's just a game not a priority that u have to take care of 24/7 xd games are made to have fun and not to let it control ur live xd and like others and i said : only do breeding in the weekends not from monday to friday

I fell asleep and missed my last imprint. I woke up to my dino having 89% inprinting .
Im on an official server.
I had a few days off from work and just set my alarm every 3.5 hours, logged on checked meat , cared then logged off... It's pretty tough

Breeding on official times is the worst anyway. I could never see myself imprinting a giga (2weeks) or a quetz on official ever. Bravo to the ones that do.

It would be BS if it were true - thankfully, you're completely wrong. Missing care reduces the imprint but does not reset it to 0%.
