i can almost see you-- eyes gloss over, softly muttering "but i want, i want...." while drool rolls down your chin--does this happen every time you have to contend with the fact this product is still in alpha? "muh alpha"? it a simple fact, just accept that fact, it'll surely do you good. i didnt see you credited as a Dev? how are you almost certain of anything regarding development? just some minor tweaks? glad to see abject stupidity isnt being completely monopolized by the Ark forums. congrats!! do you have a Dev statement regarding how minor the change is moving .59 to stable? would love to see that shit...

still doing the dad'gum thing i see...commendable sir...beans for you

its really not that difficult to understand--update, systems/mechanics change, trying to eradicate a bug/duping or whatever--will from time to time necessitate a wipe, regardless of what type of software it is.... the community demands updates/performance/bug fixes and then cries when it involves a wipe, which historically has been infrequent--like twice? if they are wiping its because they need too. its not because they want you to comment about it because they have nothing better to do oh...and nothing can become (it either is or isnt) "vaporware" ....by definition vaporware is something that never existed physically...so no, it wont. In the computer industry, vaporware (also spelt vapourware) is a product, typically computer hardware or software, that is announced to the general public but is never actually manufactured nor officially cancelled.

sheesh....another one of these threads? figured BoneBoys would've suggested the search function....? anyways...just added another 16gb of DDR1866 and a shiny TitanX and without the -newui start option (meaning i didnt try it) i really cant tell much of a difference with regard to DayZ (Exp). maybe 4-6fps increase... i havent had the chance to play the game much though (maybe 20-30 mins around Polana). settings are still the same from my GTX770 sli config. 1080, everything mostly maxed...hell, would have to check config file and everything else, so ya, idk...but no, the game is not optimized as of yet. Skyrim with 300+ mods on a 750ti huh? def not running heavy texture mods or ENB's, and Ark is eating that rig alive... Tatanko for the save :thumbsup: --always has good advice *yup

if you dont want to report bugs or the ones you are seeing are already on the tracker, then up-vote them--gives the Devs a better idea of how prominent the issues are because the "small pond" of internal/experimental testing might not reveal the issue as "game breaking". merely a guess, but that seems what that system is in place for...idk. i have also found the DayZ experience to be somewhat "less" of late, so i figured i would take hicks_206's advice and just wait for the next iteration. there are plenty of other games out there worth your time, and thankfully most PC games dont carry the $59.99 price. if you have a decent system, Ark-Survival Evolved is alot of fun i figure that the Dev's have the resources and the talent to do good things, now they just need the time to pull it off. i, for one, will happily give them that.

my attempt at humor was met with complete disregard---just as well i suppose, apologies Weyland /thread

that sir, is the mighty BoneWood of the phalusludicrous family, but it is inverted...the fluffy part is usually at the bottom. very close in relation to the commentustupidus, but typically stays hard longer, mostly found in forums. idfk? this is not a /troll....please drive thru :)

ya, i saw that and thought "Grimey will get a kick out of this shit"...the only thing i can think of as to why they would have developed it that way is the obvious...it was cheaper, and they didnt really give a shit. really tho, the only thing i know is they certainly were not doing it to insure a quality product. you have a good point, i have several of my old rigs about still (a couple in use) and it would be interesting to see if something like my old E8400/8gb DDR2-6400/4-74gb Raptor/SLI 8800gtx 768mb machine will run it in a playable fashion. if it continues to rain like it has been the last 10-12 days i'll have the time this weekend. i never sell/trade or get rid of my old hardware since regretting losing my ancient voodoo2 sli setup so long ago. i'm a hardware whore, what can i say?

hmmm...and Arkham Knight is removed from Steam /flush yeah...figure that shit out warner bros... shits weak *yup by the way...walmart isn't selling the confederate flag anymore either...draw your own conclusions

totally understand your frustration. software is always behind hardware, and that seems more prominent each year...i mean...really, 64bit is just now becoming a pre-req? watchdogs has always been a bag of shit since day one, where they turned off all the shadows/shaders so the experience on PC would be comparable to console, essentially stuffing a fat goat dick up the pooper of all PC gamers, and really, all gamers in general. "oh, here are these awesome in-game teaser vid's"---get it, load it up all excited and it looks like something a mongoloid walrus drew on cardboard using its own shit, and runs even worse than it looks...sadly the vast majority of these clusterfucks are console ports, or a title that was developed primarily for console, pc as an after thought...or, of course, a title still in development, in which case...meh, is what it is. op--i didn't get the 980's i was looking at, awesome card but...gonna hold out for next gen this time and put in a privacy fence instead :thumbsup: or i guess listen to ^^^ /troll :beans: *yup

hmm...$23.57, thats weird. still not $15 though, but whatev's. i bought it Dec 23rd, 2013, basically a week after it became available and paid $29.99 through steam. https://www.steamprices.com/us/app/221100/dayz

considering that is basically the definition of Alpha, i would say that yes, about anything can be justified up to and including halting development of said Alpha. Didnt really read all that legal mumbo-jumbo before buying it did ya? :)

for someone that also quoted the price incorrectly you sure like to point out others doing so...evidently you do not want to be taken seriously either. yes, the vast majority of purchasers paid the $29.99, as the price did not change until the fall steam sale of 2014. quoted from PC Gamer, Nov 25, 2014 "Technically speaking, the first price hike is already here. Bohemia said in a press release that the current price of $30 will be maintained until the end of the big Steam sale, but it's actually already been increased to $35and then put on sale for 15 percent off, dropping it back down to the $30 mark until December 2. It will go up again to $44 when DayZ enters beta, currently planned for near the end of 2015, and then take a final jump to $50 when it goes into full release." notice how they also quote the price "wrong"...so much for taking them serious i guess. so according to you, anyone that rounds up for simplicity is incompetent...yourself included by the way--DayZ has never been $15--seriously *yup-edit

fixed that for ya... :)

you have peaked my curiosity...so, using "whatever API" what is your fix? while we are at it, is it possible that any other change in the game could break your fix?
