Tbf it's a valid point. Unless dedicated servers are 100% cut off from interacting with other official characters there really is no way to do it. As in cosmetics are supposed to be account bound and so are the unlockables carrying through seasons and whatnot. The currencies and such. It's a difficult game to do dedicateds in. Not sayingit wouldn't be nice to have the option.

Ah, yeah, that would be a problem. I didn't even think that characters were transferable. I've yet to see a game that did that. But locking private server characters would be a good way to go. I just want somewhere I can vibe and not worry about competeing with other people.
Even PVE is competing for locations.

Have you ever played Conan: Exiles? in the game pushes you to download all assets (items for sale will be accessible when purchased). Conan has an in-game store and Battle pass. All items that need to be purchased cannot be spawned in. Once Human needs dedicated server access for all, fast before they loss a good chunk of their player base. 90% of those who play don't want to wipe after 6 weeks. Dedicated servers will fix this. And don't worry, you can't cheat items that you haven't paid for yet :)

Why should it?... because idiots build everywhere especiel in the starting area and then leave the game so it looks ♥♥♥♥ and all? PVE server, people dont bother you at all, problem solved.

Or do you want prem stuff for free as a proper TRUE private server CANT take money from the people playing on it (as THIS is the grey area blizzard actualy fought against and lost : As long as its FREE, without any money or donation, its not illegal to have them(oh boy, them early 2000's when this war took place XD Wild times back then XD)? Understandable, but then again : Learn to grind? Also P server wont ever properly update and all. most of the time they are a few weeks or even months behind the OG in terms of contend.

So all in all, no real reason for them. If this game here would have an ♥♥♥ model in place then this would be the best PLUS for that, otherwise it would be a waste of effort and time.

It is a F2P, so they would have to push their microtransactions to private servers to earn money, which might be tricky.

There's a number of ways private servers could be implemented.

The best would be a tiered subscription model:

• Free Tier: would basically be single player or limited co-op (2 - 4 players) with only the free stuff.
  
• Non-free Tiers: would be varying increases in player count. The highest tier of which would match official servers; content-wise.

The dedicated server would be the free tier (co-op limit expanded to 8 players) with an optional one-off licence purchase with a price depending on a max of how many players will be allowed on the server. No official micro-transaction content, but hosts could add their own to go towards maintenance and general upkeep.

At least, that's how I would implement private servers in a free-to-play online game.

Ark allows you to transfer players, but you can also disable it as an option in server settings.

Just let us buy a seasonal dedicated server for like €10$£...
and if another flavour comes out you can buy that one.
Once bought you can run the flavour that you like for as long as you like

This is highly UNLIKELY as if someone is hosting Private Servers, the company is not selling loot boxes, and thus, private servers for this specific game are illegal.

good luck doing prime war in a private server lol

[EvilHare]

Can we get a mod to lock this necro posted thread. We have been getting a few of these lately.

[war4peace]

Let me clear things up a bit. The reasons I don't play the game are:
- 6 week resets.
- lack of a dedicated server.

I just like to build and PvE in peace, in my little corner, away from everyone else.
If I can't have that, well, there are many other games out there.
