  • Community Crunch 200: Genesis Chronicles, Mysterious Mysteries, and On The Horizon

    Genesis Chronicles

    Gen_Chron_Header.jpg

     

    We're making the final preparations for a client and server side update that will bring Genesis Chronicles to survivors on PC, Xbox, and PS4! Leading up to the release of Genesis we will begin to include Genesis-related Explorer Notes on The Island, Scorched Earth, and Aberration.

    Survivors with the cosmetic HLN-A will find some explorer notes provide a glimpse of what to expect in the forthcoming Genesis expansion -- and how it all fits into the larger ARK story. 

    If you want to unlock a new set of skins for your armor, be sure to collect them all!

    That is a net or cage... it’s either got wheels or rocks at the bottom...

     

    its certainly a structure...

     

    like a drop/capture net or a transport/diving cage

    So that's definitely a net, the question is how large is it (what dinos are affected by it) and how is it deployed. By hand, or a launcher?

    I also wanna know if it'll have colors like last year, but more importantly... Does this mean no Halloween? This would've been my first Halloween event on ark I was really looking forward to it but I'm worried it won't come now that this event is coming.

    It's a throwing fishing net (known in Brazil as "Tarrafa", if you guys want to search on youtube). 
    During a livestream the concept art was on the background for a second ?

    Wonder if we'll have to use that to tame the World Turtle

    Judging from what this looks like and how large it may be i´m guessing there will be a lot of bugs.

     CALLED IT (on one of loaded crisis videos) undoubtedly it is a CASTING NET AND WLL FUNCTION LIKE A BOLA FOR WATER CREATURES.....
     

    The tek looking features is a bit perplexing - maybe the oxygen bubble for the giant turtle ?

    So it is a fishing net, and apparently used to gather food. I wonder how big it will be? Big enough to catch a decent amount of meat I'd hope and therefore possibly useful for taming?

    If it works like a bola and is large, maybe it can be fired from the ballista turret. Or maybe it will be most useful thrown from the back of the Turtle while hanging out underwater.

    Edit: Might not be a fishing net at all, could be a passive trap used on land to immobilise creatures.

    How about glowy colored dinos for the event? Would be different from the usual. Also is it a net for catching flying dinos like the flying rat that steals my shotgun ammo?

    SNAP! 200 community crunches so far, well done devs! Choosing to release Genesis Chronicles on the 200th was probably planned wasn't it?

    After trying something for the first time tonight, quit incidentally. I figured out what the net is for. It fits around a gacha and squeezes it so that it can actually fit down a 2x4 opening for a large elevator! Bingo!

    Oh my gosh, I was waiting for this! More Chronicles!
    And I'm glad to see that i'm not the only one concerned about event colors XD I'm still looking for a blue Mosasaur! And yeah Reapers and many other stuff i missed from the last event we had.
