They ruined the game with the patch released today. They made the game carebear for all the pvers that were too scared to go into the pvp zone. They totally ruined air combat today. Good game. Good thing dark and darker wiped. This patch will cause a massive player decrease very quickly.

10/10. Community is active on their official discord and the CEO literally was on there posting live updates in announcements as there was server downtime. He deleted a penis from chat. They let you vote on what will be coming to the game. Its not a cash grab, you will probably spend 10+ hours on the first two or 3 maps. Buy this game.

The game is good but the devs are ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. I keep getting like 7 and 14 day bans randomly after I have a day of massive elo gain. When you win people report you. When you lose people report you. When you make a good callout people call you a troll and vote you out. When you shoot someone down to take an item people call you a troll and vote you out and report you. When you play the game people call you a troll and vote you out and report you. This community is straight up trash. Rampant hackers. Rampant disconnects in the middle of a match. Random drops that ♥♥♥♥ your ELO. This game has major server issues and ♥♥♥♥♥♥ devs. Good game play, trash community, worse devs. This game is about being toxic.

So I approached a dev. After I posted my rebuttal she banned me from discord and the community page.

My account got banned for 30 days and I followed the CoC and made top 100 players last month. I want legitimate evidence, not hearsay of what I did to be banned or I would like to be unbanned immediately so I don't have to earn my gold token on an alt account this month because I have been following the CoC. I am a paying customer of this game.
I got reported by someone for hacking on Saturday or Sunday and in all the years of my steam account existing have never hacked. 0 Vac bans and I have like 4k invested in the steam account.

You've been banned twice before for trolling, and have over 100 reports for trolling from different people.
On one report, you admit to streamsniping. On many other reports, you give away your infected partner because they're "new". On another report you are calling people retarded and the n word.
You repeatedly talk in mocking accents which could be considered racist. Repeatedly downing people at the beginning of games for no reason, and repeated lethal trolling.

I don't troll.
Straight up.
I play every game to win.
knocking down people at the start of the match to steal an item is part of the game.

I don't lethal troll
stream sniping isnt a part of the code of conduct
i gave away a couple infected partners
but my last bans were injust
in the heat of the moment i might have called someone retarded getting harrassed for trolling
but its retarded...
like come on
n bomb nope
i say chang infec
not trolling or racist
because it baits out the infecteds literally half the matches i play
literally half the matches i play i get an infected down or both round 1
because i call chang infec
i dont know why it works
but it draws the infected out
they drink in front of my face or i down someone and they come vote and we get em voted out
get em voted out because they gave away their position
by voting on someone
I have never trolled
in fact i got lethal trolled by sadness the other day
and i reported him for it
i havent lethal trolled since i like my first week getting the game
lethaling an unproven innocent is not trolling
voting out an unproven innocent is not trolling
if i dont know they arent infected
im voting them out if i know someone is safe
you guys created one of the most toxic games in existence
and i finished top 100 by playing how its meant to be played
i dont troll, i dont greif, i dont bring ♥♥♥♥ from previous games in
i get trolled all the time and called a troll
but elo does not lie
sadness who finished top 10 trolls me literally every game we play together
him and daigomi
vote me out when im proven innocent
theyve done it many times
lethal me
whatever it takes
they knock me out of the game
get me voted out
i don't do that ♥♥♥♥. i don't hold grudges. i don't troll. i don't make fun of people. I play the game to win.
if i have a ♥♥♥♥ infected partner and they havent drank in 2 rounds and are saying im not going to turn and i have killed a person or two and get voted out
or they dont talk or whatever i do go off on them and some times its in alt chat by accident unintentionally giving them up

i often down people to steal items
thats not trolling though
you dont know whos infected and whos innocent at the start. if you are innocent its better for you and if you are infected its better for you
even if you just down a random person at the start of the game its better for you
if you are innocent downing random people can bait out infected players. if you are infected downing random people can get people to randomly vote out an innocent.
100% of what i do is to win the game. nothing is trolling.

THIS IS AMAZING! The Ark development team has been running for 2 years without charging anyone anything besides the inital $30 to play. They have been producing and amazing game with tons of free updates. This update however, they charged. I immediately pulled out my wallet and made it rain on my computer, however that did not work. I had to figure out how to feed my computer $20 because it has been 2 years since I have paid for any content on Ark. I tried putting it in the floppy disk drive first, then the cd drive. I couldn't figure it out. Then my friend said use a card.

Pay for the content. Don't be a ♥♥♥♥♥. There is a lot of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. The Ark development team pays salaries. If you want to continue recieving amazing content updates like this pay for it. All the complaints are because people have to pay for an update. IGNORE THE COMPLAINTS. This expansion is hard. You will fight to survive. Also, VULTURES OP!
