Reporting people that occupe all the oil veins in the map?

[ZOMBIE 999 TP]

Is that considered blocking the resources to another players? Should you report them?

Pve then yes.
Pvp... You have to deal with it

They will do absolutely nothing.

I reported a tribe (Snails of Depression) for destroying or monopolising a crystal and metal spawn. They told me to get lost in less aggressive words but it came down to that and then suggested I look else where.

There is oil in the ocean and beetles you can tame, also tek animals you can kill is probably what they will tell you.

Trust me, they won't do ♥♥♥♥ about it.
But you can still try :) Good Luck!!

In Scorched Earth, you only have the oil veins, Unless you are willing to milk oil in another uneffective way, one drop at the time...

If someone has built oil rigs over the oil spots, then there's nothing you can do as official servers are more or less first come first serve in those regards. You have beetles and of course if you're on an official server, its in a cluster allowing you to visit other servers to harvest oil as you please too.

But remember that there are around 1300ish official servers and by contrast over 50,000+ unofficial servers where the majority of the player base play and this is a non issue.

Unless you are a beginner, you will never have oil enough from beetles. And by the way, that is one of the inefficient ways i was talking about.

Then you set up a beetle farm.. multiple beetles easily produce enough oil to keep the generator running, and outside of the generator you do not need much oil unless you start crafting crafting stations/tek stuff

Alternatively, you tame certain creatures that can help hunt down rock elementals, those drop oil as well when you mine them.

Life isn't fair and Ark isn't either. Wild Card isn't running a daycare, go on another official server, start your own, join an unoficial one...

travel to a different map, farm and go back to your map.

No you so right they not running a daycare.
They running a bloody broken game that we paid for.
This type of Consumer quality and service is bad for business.
In reality overtime eventually they will loose customers or not gain the amount of users they once had.
I guess you know, a little more effort put into a game people pay for will go a long way.
Good ratings. More clients. In this case NOT.
Customer or Consumer Quality and Service DOES count.

I can't believe you will settle for less than something is worth, its like buying cheap knockoffs and imitation goods, perhaps something which only works with one setting when promised 3.

If someone wants to fight / complain about bad service and quality of a product it is their darn right to do so.

[Energizers]

just transfer to another server, and ignore those beetle advises.

Wtf. Wildcard made the game but they provide servers FOR FREE... They could not even host official servers and they would be 100% right to do so. People who play on official are the biggest whiners i've ever seen... Complaining about free stuff......

Yes, I have to agree. I never play on official servers and I have gotten my money's worth x10 for this game. Consider the official servers as test servers or demo servers where they test out stuff and don't mind people testing their stuff for free there.

You want to have fun? Play single player of one of the many varieties of "private" servers, many with mods to make things more interesting.
