Alright, but it's not just with your clan. the arkbreaks are made for everyone to do, and there is no clan only option. I stated in an earlier post, how I beleive it should be and I stand by it. But remember if you refuse to use the batteries and your clan follows your lead, but you continue to do arkbreaks then you are sponging. Besides Trion gives you one free battery a day. Use that battery at an ark site and save the rest if you want. You won't be sponging since you used a battery (even though it was a freebie), and even if everyone who owned the Dlc used mainly their freeby batteries, there would still be plenty for us all to do, everyday.

I agree non dlc owners should have access to ark breaks but the dlc owners should def get priority when entering. Iv wasted solo much scrip buy-in batteries just to get d/c up to 5 times b4 I even get into the boss & there's only 1min left. Me & my clan have the best luck when a new phase spawns & that's the only time I do them now as it's a guranteed win this way. Got fed up of 1000 fails. Am still seeing ppl using cloak & infector so I just avoid them now.

Since you may have missed my opinion on how it should be coded, I'll repost it here for you.

It should be coded so: Paid Dlc owners get in first, followed by group members, then clan members, then the rest. In that order of priority. That is all that needs done.

Btw Hardy the story missions are already co-op. The arenas are supposed to be co-op with paid members being allowed to invite in non-paid members, but they couldn't get it done and are "still" worrking on it and hope to have the arenas up and running as co-ops for paid members and their friends by Dlc 3.

And here is a solution my clan does, so nobody in the clan feels that the non dlc-members are sponges. As for the random people being sponges, all you can do is let them stay on the ground, doing the worm, when they go down. But remember the ones actually focus firing and being helpful aren't sponges. They are intern help.

THe way I see it, is if you actually help out instead of leeching in a corner, then go ahead. Have fun and join the Arkbreaks. Although if you play with a friend or clan that uses their batteries to summon those arkbreaks, then be nice and give them 10k scrip to purchase another battery on occassion.

It really is sad that so many people (not everyone) has this idiotic idea that if you dont buy dlc you cannot play.What about students,people with familys or people on low incomes? So its ok for them to buy the game but if they dont have money to spend on dlc its tough luck? Do you really wanna be that petty? Oh and no im not in any of them im a well off working guy but its sad people have to be so petty,theres plenty of other reasons to buy dlc then this

I'm also a family man on low income . End of the day what's £7. Il just have cut down smoking for a week. No major problem. By all means come along if u actually wana beat him but if ur just turning up to thro w spit balls at him then plz just move along.

I am a non-DLCer. I haven't seen the value in it. Look around the Steam sale, right now, and look for what you can get for $10. If you try to block out the people who do not own the DLC, you will dry up the existing population even more. I feel where you are coming from, totally. But trying to create more of an elitist divide is the wrong way to go about it. You deserve more incentive, we don't deserve less.

Paid DLC players deserve more.
And that's not to say that non-DLC players should be shunned, either.
But if I buy the stripped down version of a car, I don't automatically assume they owe me power windows.

The only reason I bought the DLC was so that my brothers and sisters in the game don't have to fork over ALL the batteries ALL the time.
I have little interest in the rest of it, but I enjoy the game, and I'd prefer it stick around, so I'm spreading the mirth how I can.

although i have read allot of the posts in this thread, and think people are intitled to their opinion. but i still stand by what i had said when i started this people that do not pay for the dlc should not be allowed to benifit from the dlc, meaning going into the arkfalls that are called down.

i read in another thread some posted how people that do not buy the dlc get a free ride while people that do buy it are paying for the car and the gas to drive it. which is basically exactly what has happened with dlc 2 sure people that did not buy the dlc can not use the arkspikes so they have no need to buy them, where as the people that do own the dlc can and will buy them to call down the arkfalls and the no dlc owners get to benefit from it, sure they can't use the weapons they get in them buy they still get them to sell/salvage.

as i have said in another post people should get what they paid for, and if they choose not to buy the dlc's they should not get any of the benefits from the dlc its only common sense that they should not expect to get paid parts of the game without paying for them, and they should definately not complain they are not getting them when they didn't pay for them.

if everyone that went to a called down arkfall had to actually buy the dlc to enter the arkfalls you would definately not see idiots running around with infectors or a bmgs while fighting the war master, they would actually try to defeat him rather than just try to level up guns.

not to make myself seem selfish but i really think people should get what they pay for. If you don't pay for the dlc you don't get to enter the arkfalls since that is basically the whole reason for the dlc was so we can call down and enter arkfalls, so why should the people that don't buy it be allowed to enter them?

i have used a crap load of spikes to call down arkfalls only to get lagged out of the game while trying to enter them.

Yes you would! There are people who have the paid Dlc, that never place ark batteries and love to just use the warmaster to level their guns, including bmgs/infectors. Some with the paid dont use arks, and just troll. Some just shoot once or twice then afk for free weapons.

Btw this game is about Arkhunters fighting to get into everything, including arkbreaks (downed Arks). It is part of the main lore of the game not just Dlc lore. So they deserve to be able to get into them as well. Besides some of the top scorers are non-dlc users, because they work their butts off to prove they deserve to be there.
