Server without alphas
Playing on offical server is just ♥♥♥♥♥♥ aids, more than half of the server pop is one giant ass tribe who took the server and raids everyone, every OFFICAL PVP server is like that, as a player who enoys playing in smaller tribes, I would like to see a server with a set limit of like 5-10 Tribe members and 1-2 allies would be much more fun than just one giant ass tribe vs no bodies pretty much, What do you think?

Will never happen because then they just make Co tribes that share the same territory.

It can happen, just not on official.

When you understand what the function of official servers are versus where the majority of players of the game play and as well the true intended function of the game itself, this all of this becomes a non issue. To put it to you bluntly: official servers are basic game features showcase servers nothing more. You're lamenting the state of welfare housing with suburban gated community expectations.

Tame limit of.....25? 25 dinos per tribe period? Sorry, but where's the fun to be had there?

Absolutely but you are starting way too high.

There should be several various rulesets beginning with 1 person tribe, no alliances and work up from there.

Release 1 test server per ruleset.

If they limit tribe size, people are still going to just work together as a tribe without being in the tribe. For example... Some of the legacy megatribes had multiple servers where the tribe was actually about 80-90 people strong. CHN is a Chinese tribe that owned multiple servers. They just pick a server and wipe it every now and then taking all of the stuff people built up over a month or so. And they're very systematic at it. The transferring characters made official servers a really dangerous thing. Even multiple servers can band together to wipe an alpha with basic tactics or wait until they're offline and flood the server.

If you don't like that type of gameplay, join a clustered server where the Alpha may be open to good people creating a good community of like minded people. That will let you build up whatever you want in smaller groups.

Join unofficial where they potentially wipe the server every 2-6 months or the admins cheat whenever they want.

Or simply leave the PVP mindset. You don't have to play on a pvp server. After I got sick of the server invasions, I decided to stay on pve.

No. And the test server silliness has been beaten with a dead horse(seeing the most recent tiki torch bearer of it summarily pop for their antics in it). Its like asking for showcases for showcases.

.

26000+ unofficial servers do not wipe every 2-6 months. There are many that have existed longer than some of the official ones have without a single wipe to them. And "cheating" admin issues tend to reflect bad servers that most pretty quickly figure out(or can even tell just from the advertisements of some).

That's why you vette servers accordingly. Folks lament the state of the less than 700 official servers and they're welcome to, but they just need to understand that they're lamenting welfare housing with upscale suburban gated community expectations..... instead of actually bothering to find a good suburban community.

Yeah, I set a dino limit of 25 per tribe to make for a more balanced game. This is not the server of uber multipliers. Additionally, it's also to encourage the formation of alliances, as is the tribe size limit itself.

This server doesn't get wiped.

Additionally, at level 50 you can purchase the dino trading table engram, and sell any dinos you want to other players -- to make room for new ones.
