These developers are SO disrespectful.
I used to really have my doubts and even go as far as defending this company and their actions for a long time. But this one is really beyond disappointing, seeing as the current state of the game on PC is an absolute joke with less than three weeks until launch.

Jeremy 5 hours ago on Twitter:

"Full PS4 update will be coming this week! Isnt it better for PC & Xbox to be the test guinea pigs so they get to bear thru all the issues?;)"

And it's not even funny. We aren't guinea pigs, we paid for this game and spent hundreds of hours testing it FOR YOU GUYS. For what, to get laughed at?

My server has been down for 24 hours now straight. Who knows what dozens of people lost that put hundreds of hours of hard work in to their progress, (and I don't even mean the people in my tribe, I mean just everyone and anyone in general). My server isn't even the only one with these issues! Some are EVEN WORSE.

Let's not talk about the arm-length list of bugs plaguing this ex-masterpiece.

Hands down about to quit this game, and not even because it is such a bad game. I love it sincerely and truly enjoy playing it -- but it is unplayable and the developers are actually a bunch of uncomfortable laughs now. It's one long, drawn out, bad joke. I sincerely do not know what happened to you guys between a year or so ago when you were making / taking MASSIVE strides, and now all of a sudden you are ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ on everyone's front porch.

$60 game without the paid DLC which will all be included for free in Ragnarok when the map is finished, thus making it worthless to buy in the first place MY♥♥♥♥♥

Middle fingers up. Thanks for ultimately wasting over 1000 hours of my life, I will go find and play one of the hundred+ other survival games with better business practices.

P.S. Far from salty -- actually tired of having my time pissed on.

I won't calm anything. Bad time to joke + a terrible joke to make, so I don't care.

Professionalism is a thing.

& I could give a ♥♥♥♥ less if Ark is 'his baby' as he so claims. Maybe he should stop drowning it then.

It is so pathetic that people will really still defend the developers on LITERALLY anything. It's part of the reason they aren't being held accountable to anything -- half of the community is white knighting instead of pushing for the game at its best -- or even worth the $60 for that matter. Because right now it is NOT.

indeed it was intended to be a joke, but I also had strange feelings when I read this from the dev... they are thinking nowdays they are gods.. time to fall on their faces.

Get offended by a joke, isnt that a joke?

These gamers are SO disrespectful.

Im willing to bet gamers are far more disrespectful then devs.

And even that twitter post you could easily interpret it as him refering to consoles as the guinea pigs.

Edit... on 2nd thought... no it cant .

You don't see hardly anyone laughing at a bad joke, and for good reason.

Nothing is funny here.

You must have an over-the-top sense of humor.

I already saw so and edited it too -- but I get what you are saying and I jumped the gun. I think we both did and I apologize.

Seems like on Steam forums you either gain traction or you gain trolls, so that probably doesn't help any.

They're trying to look good even though their game have some of the worst performance issues and memory leaks i have seen in any game.

But yes the game has a lot of content, i think it is a bit unfair to say you have wasted your 1000 hours just because some ass wrote on twitter, i'm sure you got plenty of fun for your money already.

My single biggest pet hate ... annoyance with WC is thier addiction to twitter.

You got awefully triggered over a minor tougne-in-cheek comment. Official servers are in a sorry state right now and have been for a while. Devs have continued to pour time and resources into a game and keep building on it. You said you had 1k hours? How can you say you truly enjoyed and loved the game, then turn around and say you wasted 1k hours? That's not very honest and it's actually rather disrepectful in and of itself.

I would really like to say that Claus. I can actually see where you are coming from, which is exactly why I was hesitant to say the exact words 'thanks for wasting my 1000 hours' -- but let me clarify as to why I feel like my thousands of hours are wasted.

This is the third time that I have had to switch servers in my official PVP career because of where we play having issues for days and days or even WEEKS.

I've put up with crashing caused by duping, ddos'ing, hackers, and then the duping itself which has been a rampant issue for months now in the game -- regardless of what people choose to believe about the topic.

I would say about half of my hours are actual playtime at this point. I must lose more stuff to Wildcard in supply drops / rollbacks then I do from people raiding me or dieing to dinosaurs. There are so many glitches in this game that break the game, that I can't even fully respect its vast amount of content -- because everything is just steps or bounds away from being okay.

In a game where PROGRESS is probably the most important -- I don't know if my house, dinos, levels, etc are going to be there tomorrow. Or a week from now. Or a month ago. That alone has halted the fun of everything this game has to offer to me -- up to this point I have just been playing to keep up with my friends who I started playing this game with.

I have had so little fun with this game the last week because it is now effectively at its worst state ever. It has had its issues in the past, but this takes the cake.

There is just nothing fun about this anymore -- and I am one of those people who will never see the fun in unofficial or single player -- solely because regardless of what anyone says, this game was not developed as a single player game. The single player content that it supposedly has is lacking, and only made better by the concept of multiplayer.

Please hear me out when I say that I'm not only complaining about this game -- I have had quite a bit of fun in this game, but I can tell you now that it certainly isn't even close to 1000 hours worth. This game is more stressful than it is fun.

I'm sitting here typing this as my server has been down for well over a full day. 1.5x wasted, dinos probably starving, lost 30+ items and 4-5 pretty important dinos that I spent hours and hours taming the day before. I can't imagine what other people way further ahead of me lost.

I just can't see where the fun in that is. Especially not with the main developers laughing right at you.

Half of it is white knighting because the vocal minority is black knighting.

The answer in your question lies in the post above, what is more disrespectful is your inability to spell to the point where I can even read it while you're trying to talk down to me.

I have my good reasons for being fed up with the developers, so that's that.
