This is serious!

Nerf the character's movement speed , make it so it cant go up to 130% or something like that, i just cant handle with people having so high movement speed , it doesnt even look good on the game

Agree, player movement speed is absurd, you can outrun most of dinos, in higher lag players literally teleport. Quite often you can simply outrun turrets tracking even in smaller lag. From my POV should be cap 160 +- it is decent speed already, so you dont feel slow, but reasonable. Characters with 200+ speed is just nonsense, yes, they have low HP, so they sacrifice something, but it really feels absurd in the end.

True on the low HP but it’s also kind of a moot point when they likely have high grade flak armor that they likely got by running past all threats in a cave.

I do agree to some extent. There shouldn’t be a build that lets you literally outrun every Dino in the game.

And having recently been in primitive pvp scenarios it does feel kind of dumb that the name of the game is fastest movement speed.

What's interesting, though, is that not many points are needed to outrun almost every dinosaur, aside from a few.

I just did the math, and you're right. I didn't realize how many I had dumped into it (17 at level 52). At a high level, though, a player could have plenty of points put into other stats to balance out the character while still being rather fast. Personally, I think they should increase the speed of many wild dinosaurs, even if just by a little.

OP is someone who has 200% attack and a ♥♥♥♥ ton of health and weight but only attacks level 5s so he cant counter level 90s with actual pvp stats.

All of you do realize that the absolute max (vanilla) speed anyone on ARK could get is like 200% which means the max you could ever run is twice as fast and that means you will also have bad stamina. It really isn't that fast. My raptors can go at least 3 times as fast as the fastest human and they have good stam. Maybe instead of whining, ya'll can get good. And if you are having trouble fighting someone moving fast, you should get upgrade your potato to at least an orange. I mean, come on people. This ♥♥♥♥ really isn't that hard.

i just got knocked out by someone with 1 single hit , love this game , i think he had 300% melee dmg

I agree that it’s beatable with high speed pumped dinos in a beach level pvp situation but I start having a gripe at the point where youtubers like six shadows can take down a turret by running at it, slapping down a c4, and running back while only taking 2 shots.

That’s kind of become upper mid tier raiding these days. If you don’t have the Great Wall of china loaded with turrets just yet, people just sprint through what you have to a place on your building that turrets can’t hit. Lay c4 and run back. Sure you could claim base design flaws but there is a point where the resource grind vs ease of exploiting character movement speed, is nearly impossible to combat if you arnt on a really boosted server.

I think you need to find a PvE server.

the game itself tells you

"you dont have to be faster than the dinosaur, just faster than your friend"

Spike walls are a thing. Bear traps are a thing. Species X and Y are a thing. Dont think the turrets alone will keep you sefe.

If you want to cap speed then you would need cap on every other stat too....(only 150% melee! etc)
It would be better to fix the animations so it looks normal and keep those weak 200% speed guys :D

Oh, I have yet to use C4... Don't explosive's usually have to be "primed" irl? Perhaps that is an oversight. And if this is the case, there is nothing stopping a high level pvper from getting a quezt and just rolf dropping c4 from a platform saddle. Also, remember that if a player puts all their points into speed just to use c4, they are going to be very niche. They probably won't have good pvp health, even with flak armor (cause if you are going to fight them you should be a similar level and also have flak otherwise movement speed isn't your biggest problem.) Have you ever considered that the enemies who do this stuff are just better equiped/more organized than you? I mean if you are crying about a max level moving too fast but you are only level 30 or 40, then you really can't complain about movement speed being the problem because they would win anyway. My only guess here is that a lot of the people here are <50 and they just aren't equiped well enough to handle a max level, riot armor, rocket launcher weilding group of experienced pvpers. I am not saying that is everyone here, but the majority of the people complaining, especially the op, seem to not be experienced and just rage quit when they couldn't face someone 2 or 3 times their level count.

Edit: I personally usually run with about 150-120% movement speed, and that eats up at least 10 level upgrades. Just using 10 level upgrades on speed actually really puts me behind in terms of specialization. Most of my stats are well rounded as a result. If I went to face a health tanked pvper, I would probably die. I personally think it is balanced.

Edit 2: Also, reading over this post, I can see where it seems a bit hostile. When I say you, I meant the people with complaints here in general. Not meaning to bash anyone. Sorry if I confused any of you.

I agree actually, was looking for a mod to globally decrease all movement speed (although flying could remain the same). For one itd allow the non twitch kids to admire the beauty of everything and frankly my computer needs more time to load chunks anyway.

Id also like a way to slow everything down a bit, say a 15% decrease to animation speeds. With an alpha raptor eating my face i need an extra few frames just to aim my pike anywhere near where itll be.

And then there are troodons...

They are meant to be fast, it's a raptor, also there are easy ways to stop them so you can kill them or knock them out, use the bola things. stop crying about things that are meant to be fast and figure out ways to prevent yourself from getting attacked.

I will also state this again because I don't think I made it clear enough IT'S A RAPTOR!

I get ya, raptors are meant to be orders of magnitude faster than humans. I'm not talking about their relative speed to humans, but their absolute speed (or really, relative to me personally, not my character).

In other words, I'd love to fight a raptor that is significantly faster than my character; as long as I personally can react at functional speeds in game. I'm not a bullet hell kinda guy, is what I'm saying.
