    Oratan Attacks (Base defense)

    "Oratan attacks have been seen around certain bases but it seems there is a new use of pheromones that draw in the attack. It is not sure how this happens but research has shown that there is a smuggler force selling these canisters and they are used to draw in forces greater than what has yet to be seen."

    "The IFN requests that any person who has information on this please report it as soon as possible and call for support. Bring your best armor and weapons because the battle will be great."

    More information will be shared in the future

    Other changes

    - Changes to terrain.
    - Fixed lag issues in Celeste Harbor.
    - Optimized Arkadia Moon.
    - Fixed spawns around event areas.
    - Streamlined new player experience.
    - Optimized "The Quarry" for performance when large crowds are present.

    Back from death. Welcome back Arkadia! Awesome! Can you confirm if we are still getting new stages of iron missions upon completion or we are only allowed to finish current iron missions?

    Just sad about 1 thing...
    why have miners and crafters been left out of gold rush event again ?
    When it first happened the cycle of loot from mining and hunting kept the crafters supplied, the crafters kept the miners and hunters supplied. The extra prizes for the other two professions, made Ark unique in that the economy was boosted as a whole.
    Let the other planets just do stuff for the hunters only, please please let Ark think of it's entire community in events
