Pros:
- Tek stuff is pretty cool
- Cross servers
- Clans up to 100s of players
- Clan Diplomacy
Cons:
- Water consumption is too fast
- Engrams are paywalled (DLC)
- Netcode is dogshit
- Pvp is super casualized
- Environment collision is all over the place. Sometimes there’s invisible barriers that looks like you can go through and sometimes you can just go through the map.
- Notorious of adding content and not fixing/balancing it.
- Clunky mechanics
- Tek Rifle is a little too op for raiding.
- Lots of bugs
- Like I only got back into the game after a couple years and there’s a bug where if I get picked up by a ptera and land, there’s a chance of getting teleported back to where you got picked up. Happened to me 3 times within a couple hours.
- Rubberbanding
- Picking up and moving players and dinos in somewhat open spaces still drops them.
- Dinos hitbox when attacking is massive
- Dinos these days have annoying mmo/rpg abilities that removes the immersion of the game.
- Auto meshing kills tames instead of teleporting them out.
- You can’t pick up wild dinos on pve. Which makes getting snails really annoying to deal with.
- Can get a Cryopod engram just normally and make them at obelisks.
- Raiding is boring and tanky af. The whole point is just soaking turrets which take up 95% of the time when raiding. Pvp is not really enjoyable at all due not only to the lag and bad registration but it’s just dino pvp which takes barely any skill at all.
- Meshing into the ground. Either a whole entire base in the ground or some places you can hide in the mesh.
- Hypocritical corrupt developer admins are choosing sides to destroy bases if they are “breaking the rules” and banning people for no reason.
- Developer admins destroying bases because of meshing even though another group is doing it.
- Newer dinos are op and unbalanced compared to other older dinos.
- Even if there is a chance of infantry pvp it’s still shit to play in. Whips are stupid that you can whip someones weapon out of their hands. Armor (or everything at this point) is easily made and the damage reduction is insanely high which the ttk is pretty much immeasurable (especially with the bad netcode) because you can just have multiple sets of armor and swap instantly. And the fact that you can change movement speed which makes rubber-banding worse.
