ARK Updates are ridiculous

[Rorisjack]

I don't have a super good PC, but I can download a 10GB game in less time then it takes to do a 1GB update in ARK, It's ridiculous. It's like this everyday, I've been here for more then an hour already to do a 1.6GB update.
WC needs to sort this out.

post about it are more frequent then the patches themselves, so by your logic, these posts are rediculous. However as it has been stated in the many of posts about this, the Patch bloat size issue that makes it take sooooo long for you to download it is steams fault. Steam bloats your files, has a crappy patch method by making a complete copy of ark to patch it, and forces you to DL the update to play online

this is nothing. I've been playing this since the ea launch

Would you honestly rather play a game with a bunch of bugs, or unfinished maps, things they have a fix for, then download some patches?

I mean, this 1.6gb update is specifically for Ragnarok, that added a good chunk of land to the map.

Last time I checked, nav mesh files, textures, and other terrain data is rather large...even more so on UE4 (an engine itself that is still being developed by Epic Games...).


You know what I do?

I go outside and get some fresh air.

There really is no reason for anyone to sit in front of their computer and complain about an unfinished game getting patches that fix things...

Instead of stressing out about it...go get some fresh air or something.

Right same we used to have 10+ patches daily!

[=Sarsante=]

what i think is more ridiculous is that you couldnt rant on any of the dozen rant threads that already exist here.

do you want attention?

oh im aware it was for op, but,,still it did nothing. If he wasnt around for EA he doesnt know what he missed out on

The game updates have been like this since I've played the game, it isn't just because of winter sales.

I think they should schedule the updates and get together a lot of bug fixes and fix them in one row.
And updates are always like this for many people, it's not just because it's Ragnarok

If your update id just stuck not downloading change your bandwith limit to 1.5, should work after

op, you do realizes devs dont read here right? so basically you are posting just to egg on an arguement and nothing more

Yeah, I want to get attention from the developers, and I've bought a game and I have the right to complain about things I think arent well done in it.
You're just helping with those unecessary and unpolite comments by bumping the thread up :)

So go to the official forum and rant there. Devs will never read your rant here

[Lina]

they dont tend to read rants in general, i dunno any devs personally that do. Try a well prosed response about said isssue on a forum where they give attention to well prosed posts
