ARK: Survival Ascended

2590 hours played in ark ascended. over 3000 in ark ase. do you want to pay for a product that you cant play 25% to 50% of the time? I'm tired boss i wish wildcard and snail games loved this game as much as the playerbase does. Profit profit profit at the expense of your game. You will have to pay for every new release (they say it's free, but everytime they release new overpowered stuff, so you will have to pay if you want to keep up with everyone else) Every release you have the same cycle: delay, release a completely broken update, make sure only 10% of the playerbase can actually connect to a server. The broken updates they release are incredibly bad. You will crash all the time, the server will crash, you lose all your stuff and you can lose your character. There will be patches released very frequently, so everyday you'll be downloading and waiting, but these patches rarely ever fix anything, and even worse, they usually break other things that were not broken before. Several weeks or months later, the game is still in the same state, and people give up. New features don't work, nothing works as advertised, it's very frustrating. The servers are a complete nightmare. As I said before, after a new release, only 10% of the playerbase will be able connect. That means, if you want to play, you have to spend 10 to 20minutes, everytime you want to connect to your server. And you just hope you get lucky and get in, and when you finally get in, you hope you don't disconnect or crash. During this time the network obviously can not handle this load, and the lag/rubberbanding/freezing is really bad. So when you can finally play the experience is not good at all. This happens every cycle, they just refuse to spend more resources.
