Community Crunch 153: Extinction Chronicles V Tomorrow!

People all excited like they think the Tek Quetz won’t be a super rare spawn XD. How often do you see more than 1 Quetz in a spawn? now divide that probability by 20.

There are always 3-4 flying around the canyon, viking bay, volcano area on ragnarok at any given time.

Thank you for not doing Tek trike! Tek Quetz is definitely acceptable.

I'm actually am kinda surprised that the new tek Dino is a Quetzal I would have expected it to be a Mosa or a Giga. I am also very exited to see the new screenshot of extinction and to read the new ??? notes, also to learn more of the story of extinction. 

thats not extinction. thats a mod map called fractured.

Next: Tek Trike, Tek Mosa and Tek Giga. They'll probably come with a corrupted shield, a corrupted sword and a corrupted rifle. All of this being just copy&paste of things that already are in game. A small visual change and maybe some different stats but still some recycled content...

 

One more "fanart of the week" showing an interesting extinct creatures, great job ! But sadly it looks kind of an ironic choice from WC because they keep ignoring extincted creatures and only focus on fantasy/scifi creatures. 

Just give some love to The Island and to the prehistoric creatures. More TLC, more dinos, maybe other skins like the brachio. But please do it soon. I'm sick of waiting for DLCs I don't care about, while the good old dino game part is left, forgotten. I wait for a good reason to install this game on my PS4 again. I don't want to waste storage for some bad scifi game full of bugs. 

I'll never buy a season pass before knowing all the content that will be added, cause WC season pass is a huge disappointment. Third DLC but still no new dino while everybody keep suggesting prehistoric creatures. Don't you see people waiting for more prehistoric creatures ? You keep ignoring one of the most important thing in ARK success, the prehistoric creatures. 

Without Dinos, ARK would be one more early access fail. I showed the Extinction trailer to many friends. They won't buy ARK. They'd wait for the next Fallout. Sad because the first trailer of the game (on the Island with all dinos...) looked awesome to them. Big waste. 

Some scifi quote that perfectly apply to ARK:

"You were the chosen one, Arknakin" 

this was never a "good old dino game" in the first place, it was a sci-fi game with homo deus creating fake dinos. all the fantasy creatures are part of the story line. the reason they keep adding DLCs you don't care about(but others do) is because it was supposed to be this way ever since they designed this game. i'm not mocking you or looking for an argument, but am simply stating the truth

This is a fat load of bull. If they loved the first trailer, they could just buy the damn base game. Still over 100 Dino's without sci-fi animals. The vast bulk of Sci-Fi is in DLC, which is OPTIONAL to buy. Get off your high horse

Sounds awesome. Thanks for these neat events and updates.

I meant to say screenshots, as in the ones that show us what Extinction looks like.

I really wish they would of just released the last 4 Tek skins left at once... Maybe they are holding out for the 3 month delay extinction will probably have.? jk... I hope.

I luv seeing new things to ark...

IF I HAD THE GAME where is ark for nintendo switch it was announced near the same time as extinction and we haven't heard since pls WC make a news update about nintendo switch.

Tons of servers just hit dino cap! no-one can tame or breed so this whole event will be wasted

Seeing as how we are not going to get a breeding event in the future, could they at least lower the times and make imprinting better on official servers. 

Who said that? You will be getting breeding events in the future, but they are very rare. They are about 3 or 4 times a year.

Also, there may be an increase for breeding on Nov 3rd during the ExtraLife charity event. The specific stats haven't been revealed but I believe it will include breeding for somewhere between 24 hours at least anyway.

I'm not quite sure how you were under the impression the guy was talking about Fractured?

We've been  told there will be more Extinction reveals every Tuesday so we are expecting screenshots at least to come then.

I was hoping that new tek dino will be present in all maps. Im aberration player and there is no Quetzals at all. You should have do spino, trike, paracer, carbonemys, scorpion, doedic, ankylo or other ALL MAP dino.

agree completely

can you unlock them in single and carry the unlock over to online or no. all the island and se maps I go to are full

Yes you can unlock them in single player and they will also be unlocked for your online character as well since it's account bound (Meaning any skins you unlock on Single player also cross over to your online characters as well same with Explorer Notes)

Well out of the remaining dinos that would be coming as Tek dinos there are no dinos that spawn on all maps. Even Trike doesn't spawn on all maps. Also Rex was released that doesn't spawn on Aberration. There's no point asking for Spino, Paracer and anything else that was not on the list of dinos that already have a bionic skin.

I really don't find much use for them on pvp since the Argy can carry the important farming Dino's they are just better. What I tuink is that the quetz should be able to cover in the air losing no stam and should have a much higher wieght capcity and Heath pool 

 

On officail they are used to farm and to pick in wars because of their giant grab hitbox . If it had higher hp (official has ~30-40k it would be more broken because of the lag and turrets not shooting —-> you can alreaddy grab dinos out of enemy bases with enough hp

The base game is still full of bugs, people are still waiting for things like S+ or the mode where you are a dino to be added. It needs a lot of rework, many TLCs... but all of those things are in stand-by (and will probably stay forever in standby) because WC is too busy making DLCs instead of taking care of the original game. 

more wondering what time GMT this will be active on all servers?

Generally every Tuesday if there's a patch it releases at 6pm GMT+1.

Prehistoric creatures are a minor part of ARK ? Take a look at this website, at all the merchandising made by WC, at the game cover. How many prehistoric creatures do you see ? And how many scifi things do you see ? Their main selling argument was CLEARLY the dinosaurs. There was a lack of good dino game, they target this niche to get money and now they let down this niche and all the dino-fans. 

Be honest, do you really think ARK would have success WITHOUT the "minor part" that are dinosaurs ? 

If SE, Aberration or Extinction would have been the first & standalone game of WC, do you think they would have gone out of early access ? Would you really buy ARK if there was no dinos in it, only things like the Gasbag or Lanterndog? 

I bought ARK because some company finally made a dino survival. I waited for them to make it bigger and better. But instead of finally having a good dino survival, nope we got another scifi game. With Extinction we'll probably get corrupted zombies or whatever just to get another clichee of modern survival games. Instead of having an original and refreshing dino-survival. 

Same with the Isle, looks good but nope, they made mutant zombie hypo dinos because it's all about zombie, aliens and mutants nowadays. No one is able to make a real good dino survival. 

 

What time gmt,  will it be released?
