New changes to plant turrets can easily be exploited

[Trent Steel]

- Plant Turrets now consume Fertilizer per shot, and also will not shoot if no water is in the crop plot.

I really think this is a bad idea since it is so easy to make plant turrets shoot at you without actually being hit.

I play on a primitive pvp server and we rely heavily on our plant turrets to prevent offline raiding. I know for sure that people will take advantage of this new change to plant turrets.

Devs please consider making them only consume fertilizer if they are set to "attack all targets"

it is retarded, they remove more and more strategy to help that ♥♥♥♥♥♥ xbox handle the physics????

they said they would never sell out, but they have, they can just sell all of it to EA now, I doubt they can make it worse.....

it should always be harder to invade than to defend, but these retarded changes keep going in favor or raiders instead of builders.

irrigated is no longer enough for plant x to shoot?
1 player on a doedicus can use up all my ferts in a few min ?

can only see it two ways

1, they make these changes so the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ consoles can handle the game

or

2 they want dumber and dumber player in the game(after all we have more dumb people in the world than intelligent ones)

Gotta make back that $40,000,000 somehow.

With regards to water:

You can add water using a jar, water skin etc so this is not really an issue even if you have them indoors and no water taps etc.

Not water consumption per se but the Plant Species X (Ampullaria Pilobolus) will need to have water in the Large Crop Plot in order to function.

Doesn't the plant die if it doesn't have water?

i thought plants died when they ran out of fertiliser

We need a option to only put players, players dinos and agresive dinos. I don't wanna kill 20 dodos with my turret plany, but i don't wanna se a wild giga going to my base with 0 resistence.

ummm, you can do that already

[BYSPIDER]

they start to screw the game a lot these days lots of people going to stop playing because of their stupid ideas.

[Belnick]

stupid consoles, let all consoles burn in hell, they ruin everything

[RoTaN]

it's 50 fert per shot consumed

[Charnel]

50 fert is nothing

[Belnick]

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, played for 2 hours and 5 plants have gone from full to empty
just remove them from the game instead, they are useless now, used to be best def against wild giga, but devs only want raiding and no buildings

If they are going to nerf defences then also nerf the turtles and remove box quetzals that eat plants for fun.

The official server I play on is getting barren. People come in, hear about changes and log off after proclaiming to be done with the game. These are people with 2,000 hours invested walking away because these changes are so awful. Many tribes had all their quetzals starve because the devs are too incompetent to properly update their patch notes. Then they refuse a roll back and say "whoopsie, we forgot to tell you your quetzals were going to starve in no time flat, no biggie though, screw our customers and their most difficult and time consuming tames".

Thats some good QA right there. Thats exactly what I would expect from an ethical and professional business model....(end sarcasm)

If they don't fix this soon i predict about 40% of people will quit. looks like ~80% are threatening it, but I suspect about 1/2 of those people won't actually quit. However, if they take a while to fix these horendous issues people are likely to get invested in a different game and be far less likely to come back at all.

it is the console money that draws them, so blame the devs and blame anyone playing ark on console instead of pc

same thing with the auto turrets, it kinda made no sense for it not to use up its inventory. when you got turrets that do and also become useless when unpowered,( aka water for the plant)
