Quoting: GuestI actually blame gaming customers because most of them are kids and/or are completely unrealistic in their views. Just read through the steam forums or reviews for any game title to see it....

That we agree on. However in this case I think the customers are right. I'm not saying the game is bad, but I am saying the dev/publisher is wrong and deserves it. They can turn it around, but they need fix their mistake one way or another. Release it, or refund. I haven't played the game, but if it is as good as you say there is no problem with them releasing it. Nothing would stop them from continuing to update it, or add new content and they would not get this level of backlash for releasing DLC's.

You hit the nail right here. All the dev's did was released an expansion in early access. But the game is still better than most fully released AAA games these days. They should just release it. That is, to me, their only mistake. Having 2 words on steam, "Early Access" In the quote the dev's said..

"We determined that it is more sound to iterate on these systems during Early Access than after retail launch, given the significant risks involved if we didn't "get it right". While that meant unveiling the first Expansion early, it also means an easier time integrating further post-launch Expansions into the ARK network. "

So they are testing how to release expansions so they can get the systems right, nothing wrong with that in my eyes. Although I have bias, I love this game and have played close to 400 hours and the expansion is great fun played it for 8 hours last night. If this game was not as good as it is my opinion would be vastly different.

All it needs is optimization, it is awesome right now and I would not be upset if they released it today.

It make this topic interesting and why it is getting so much press. The game is popular, I just looked on steam there are 53,044 people playing right now. Not bad at all. This expansion is a success no matter how much backlash it has. Its fun. Did the devs make a mistake,yes. For me, it is worth every penny, I would gladly pay full price for the base game and expansion right now knowing the 100's of hours of enjoyment I have got from it. It is still a great price for a game packed with content and growing every week. ARK is one of Linux's best games in my opinion.

They could very easily test with free DLC. They didn't need to charge for a DLC while in Early Access to test that function. If they wanted to test they should have tested with free DLC. If they want to charge, release the game and add DLC. It really isn't very complicated.

Cam'on, its just 20 euros for a game with thousand of hours of gameplay... cam'on

Quoting: GuestWhy not just not buy the DLC? Why all the hate? It isn't required or pay to win DLC. Why is everyone in such an uproar? Ark is better quality an most triple A titles when they release....

Because it sets a bad precedent. If people let this slide and these devs don't get a heaping helping of negative feedback (thankfully they already have) then Ubisoft, EA, Activision, and the rest are going to start pulling crap like this. Then they will push the envelope further. Then a couple years from now when people are wondering "how did it get so bad" those people that said "Why is everyone in such an uproar?" and defended the Ark devs today need look no further than the mirror when looking for someone to blame.

Bad precedent? its a good precedent! crossing my fingers to devs from ubisoft, EA and activision copy from wildcard and start launch their games for 20 bucks and their dlcs also!!! ofc!

its just 20 euros game, awesome game. It runs perfect! and we have a native client on linux for our pleasure. To be honest, it's really cheap game for all hours that people play on it. If you check the negative reviews is from people with 500 euros or more. Cam'on how much you paid for each hour of game? 20 euros more? is it a big deal? those people from wildcard shows how to make a game. Without hyping people they released a increible DLC, i bought it and it's just awosome for only 20 euros. It's just increible the work behind that. That guys are working like crazy. Compare it to other games like rust, many copies sold and increible slow developing. Wilcard with half of time they made something big and increible with millions of hours to play. Cry for a dlc is just stupid in that situation.

In my steam recommended games list , shadow warrior 2 appear. And it's so strange since it have a linux filter. Is first time a game only for windows appear on that list. It's a bit confusing.
