Ragnarok Devs

I'm going to continue gathering info and communicating from my personal account for more transparency, as 'RagnarokDevs' isn't really applicable anymore. That handle is @ExcitedKangaroo - Thanks.

Hey guys, new report method designed to speed up and categorize issues! Would appreciate it if this was used as the primary reporting method for Ragnarok. Google Form Link: goo.gl/forms/eWMbDfI2…

Looked at the entire NW portion of the map, optimized streaming levels in the area, ended up looking great, reduced the avg areas loaded by about 45-60%! I look forward to testing it over the next few weeks! Once its vetted should help console crashes in that area quite a bit!

@SirWetzely Main reason is likely linked to available memory. I have been noting down locations reported in the form, and from conversations here - in a few days I'll make heatmap for me to go and use to help optimize different aspects of the levels in those areas.

Need that pogchamp emote over here - Epic artwork from @szejones szejones.com

@JohnThechampi Glad to hear it, hopefully I can get it working better for you.

@RagnarokDevs Xbox 1, I've been playing it for almost as long as it's been out for it, really big fan

Hey, as much as I appreciate the kind words about us, I would very much like to keep any kind of negativity toward WC (Who we now work for) out of any conversations - *Especially* anything directed towards people specifically.

@MooseMan2217 On it!

@RagnarokDevs @RagnarokDevs megaloceros tlc? Plz?😢

I may not have my furniture yet but at least I can still play ARK.

@JohnThechampi Thanks for the perseverance. What platform do you play on?

@RagnarokDevs You guys definitely have the best map I've seen for this game, don't get me wrong I really love the game but most of the time it's so frustrating to get completely thrown out of my immersion just because other connectivity issue. Regardless I'm not giving up on you guys

@pmfeline66 Thanks - Some of the other info I gathered highlights those areas as well. When i go over it later in the week I'll give it some extra love.

@pmfeline66 Yeah for sure, no illusions there are issues with the map, especially on xbox. I'm looking at ways to reduce the memory footprint of specific areas, which will help with that. Where do you notice it happening the most(In your singleplayer)?

@weberm35 Would like to reiterate that this is a pointed effort to resolve map related issues, mainly under meshing and specific UM related exploits. If your issue is in that category please enter that in there and I can get it sorted. If its not, I can still check it out.

@RagnarokDevs Yeah. Submitting tickets with that information is a waste of our time. First ticket I opened with screenshots and cord. No response then ckosed since there was no activity on it.

@stufliggy Wont comment much on this particular thread, but this has several perfect examples from my previous comments. Please take what I said to heart, and put any (map related) issues in the form I posted earlier. I'm going through it on the daily.

@RagnarokDevs Hard work and dedication... feelings.... all I hear are excuses. Show your player base some love and come with results instead of crying about your feelings. Meanwhile @bubblywums is going on vacation and @Jatheish is tweeting pics of his dog, albeit it’s a cute dog 😂

Please help identify this species. 🤔 #PlayARK

@ClocworkSoldier For myself, its hard to stay passionate about something (community engagement) that has sooo much negativity around it, and that turns into a source of frustration from players that can breed more negativity. But- I'm trying to use my free time to be productive, and stay engaged.

@ArahliTheGeek Ragnarok :kappa: 😉

Decisions must be made! Scorched Earth or The Island?! youtu.be/vSWtQr53g2E?a

@1batch1 There has been action for sure, and more to come. As far as what I can contribute, its helping stop them from being able to exploit in the first place. I trust in the admin team to do their best on the servers.

@RagnarokDevs What about taking action against people using the exploits. Really getting tired of messing cowards killing so now and destroying bases because they can't enjoy a game with utilizing glitches

I've started fixing some of the reported undermesh locations on SE/TI/Rag, and passed along some exploits to the game play team. Thanks for the reports so far.

**TO CLARIFY** - I'm not asking you to not express yourself. Just please be considerate.

-- on high population official servers. I could say more, but twitter is probably not the best place for it. Please just be respectful and imagine you don't have the entire picture, because you do not.
