Community Crunch 171: ARK Stream & Homestead Update Tomorrow!

So do I need to remove the structures + mod from my server? Will it clash with the Homestead update?

if you remove the mod, any items/structures built with s+ will disappear.  I can't remove it from my server without removing everyone's bases ect. 

So I noticed on Dododex that exceptional kibble requires element dust. Isn't that only available on Extinction?

Does this mean ark will focus on more tlcs and fixes?  This update is cool and gives me hope the game will get even more enjoyable than before

No new PVE servers released with a new way to build in the game?! That's a shame.

Still cant put carbon or clay in the forge on prim+. Smokehouse/preserving campfire still dont work either. Very annoying. Please fix.

Why the hell is mantis kibble only superior, and rock elements require extraordinary. That makes no sense.

TAME KARKINOS > All eggs on other maps.... ?        What The Hell ?

 

The Basilisk egg is part of that group. So it basically means you need to have Basilisks or find eggs to get A perfect tamed Karkinos now.

You get Element Dust from harvesting Tek Dinos on all maps now.

Just tried to feed a 150 Onyc Simple kibble (leftover Raptor kibble) and it was at 44.4% effectiveness after the first feed. You sure they prefer Simple?

 

EDIT: Went back with newly-made kibble of the first five types (white through yellow) and every one started taming an onyc at 44.4% effectiveness. DId you typo that it should have a preferred kibble now, or just forget to implement it?

I too do not understand them not fixing the issues.. more and more people are going to get this GPU and will have the same issues.. it is sad my 560 plays better than this RTX, lol..

RTX is new, stick in there. If you can, go into the GeForce control panel and set up a per-application profile covering ARK (Disabling feature by feature until it works better) until it's actually fixed.

Like, I'd swap you my 1070 lol  

Just keep up to date on those driver updates, and every so often, when changes do happen, clear out those config files. Chances are any fix may need cleared graphics settings.

I actually thought they were going to allow the old kibbles still to work after they implemented these changes...What the hell...

 

Are my fridges needing to be emptied now that they've made it easier for those who complained about not being able to tame stuff, because they couldn't actually prepare or coordinate with others??

So how is imprinting with kibble going to work now? Is that sorted out or should i wait to breed?

Can't imprint my juvi Thyla now because it wants dimetrodon kibble and no one has any and can't make it anymore. Thanks for that btw. What makes it even better is that you need angel tears and soylent green to tame more Thylas now.....yay!

 

Hopefully this update won't turn into a train wreck.

Bring back damn primitive (not primitive plus) but primitive so we can make the damn castles!!!!!! And make it only 150 dino cap on these servers. So there isn't that crappy lag. 

RIP Mana finally...wow

this wasnt necessary

I like it except its more teir locked.  I dislike how u hv to tame creatures in that teir b4 u can make kibble for it.  So i hav to horrible tame 2 rexes or yutys ect b4 i can get kibble for rexes and yutys.  The old system allowed u to kibble tame down a line in a progression style.  No wasting was needed.  The kibbles ok, its an improvement in many ways, but i wish we could use a superior on at least 1 dino tht dropped the next lvl, u know, actual progression.  The texture changes r rather limiting as well, so far only my foundations can look different.

My real beef is the final kibble lvl.  Theres absolutely no way the megalania and thyla belong there.  The giga and mose should be there and the thyla and megalania should b like maybe superior...And thats being generous.  Theres lil use for them unless ur breeding them inside rags ice cave or the islands snow cave.  Theyre subpar combatwise, giga and mosa used to demand the ultimate kibble, theyre obviously not in the rex and spino teir.

I not see the Equus in the new Kibble Flow Chart. The Wiki and the Dododex write to tame need Kibble (troodon Egg), but  now not possible make the old kibbles. Any idea?

I really hope to solve it soon. Without kibble the tame (with rockarrot) is 40 minute. :(

No, do not remove S+, that would remove everything from the actual S+ Mod on your server.

Someone has problems like me with the S+ snapping points? (And also some other mods.)

While you're about, what's the chances of actually getting attention to bugs that have been around for over a year, with no dev contact/response at all. Been trying for a few weeks, even tweeted to no avail.

 

Seems actually really shabby in terms of how a bug can be around for over a year, and yet, not be addressed or queried by devs, even when tagged...

Also... Just so you know why I don't like you :facepalm: and non-response... This, is from JEN... So, like maybe you want to look at things before just dismissing them. YOU MADE ME GO FIND THIS... I wouldn't have spent the time going to find it, if it weren't for your dismissive nature.

Regarding previously crafted kibble:

• Old kibbles will not be wiped, and will inherit their new "value/color" appropriately.
• Old kibbles will still work to tame their appropriate creatures.
• Old kibble will no longer be craftable, only the new types will be craftable.

2 Level 15 ichtys, dodo kibble versus simple kibble. Simple kibble instatames... Dodo kibble, the old kibble, is _3.9%_....... I've also heard this magical number from someone taming Griffins earlier on.

Seriously @GP maybe you want to have a look at what's going on before dismissing things. @Jen Can you please explain this? The old kibbles are not working as they should at all.

Impossible to play, you cant fly, you cant walk around with dino, make 3 steps and game freezes for 20 seconds, i cant even harvest meat for babys im raising, with that freezing it will take me 10h.

Revert the patches and deal with your mess @WCDevelopers. 

No more eggs for making kibble anymore?

 

Just looking at the new kibbles in Dododex and no eggs in the recipes. Or am I missing something?

 

Edit: wait I think I read it wrong.
