I wish it wasn't , but just look at the servers , I remember when I couldn't get onto the 3 official servers I was in because they were always full, I went back to look at them the other day one of them had 5 people the other two servers had zero people online ... thats dead ! brown bread , dead as a door nail. kaput! its life has ceased to be.
....The game is all about taming and breeding but if around 5 tribes hit tame cap and build enough structures to hold them in place the server runs like a stuttering steaming heap of shite... official or rented servers.
but don't worry an update is coming soon ...with fixes? No don't be silly , new maps new distractosours and new snazzy pants with matching hair do's.
