    Mysterious Mysteries: Introducing ????

    What an interesting discovery, can anyone guess what this creature might be?


     

    On The Horizon

    High_resolution_wallpaper_background_ID_77701718619-1200x506.jpg

    Hacks/Exploits

    Abuse of game mechanics, such as meshing and duping, are being reported at a higher frequency.  As always, we will continue to implement changes to address any methods we have been able to reproduce.  Please continue to report any known methods via the ticket system.

    Enforcement

    With the increase of reports, the enforcement team has been tasked with a larger number of tickets.  This backlog of requests prevented our enforcement team from acting quickly to incidents that were being reported.   We've made a considerable dent in the backlog and hope to improve our response time to incidents that are reported.

    Events

    If there's something you'd really like to see in events (regular and holiday), check out the thread below and weigh in!

     


     

    Changes to the Code Of Conduct

    New Addition:

    If you have been hardware ID (HWID) banned, any attempt to access the Official Network with an alternate account is subject to another hardware ID ban

    You can read the Code of Conduct in its entirety by clicking here.

    Looks kinda like some sort of squid-spider or something like that. Its design screams at me that it'll be in the water but I can't explain exactly why I think that.

    Oh, another sassy remark from someone who doesn't understand controlling the servers to that level isn't something Wildcard has access to do themselves. Before you say "pay for better servers", ARK's going to need a steady income (micro-transations) to keep those going. Then again, it depends on how strong the DDoS attack is.

    It's some sort of spider...maybe crossed with a mosquito?

    [LOG_RECEIVE] Terminal Entry MM-05
    [LOG_RECEIVE] We find the lucky ones trapped in giant webs.
    [LOG_RECEIVE] But we find the unlucky ones as corpses, drained of blood.
    [LOG_RECEIVE] Unluckiest of all are the ones we never find.

    If you have been hardware ID (HWID) banned, any attempt to access the Official Network with an alternate account is subject to another hardware ID ban  what is this supposed to be ? a joke? if someone was to be hwid banned he would not be abled to log onto another acc and keep playing, if someone spoofs his hwid or changes parts its not detectable.

    >crossed with a mosquito

    I thought most spiders sucked blood already.

    They do I think, it's just that this has little leg looking things dangling as well as the big legs so it looks a bit like a cross between the two.

    I have no idea what those droopy things are supposed to be or do. When I first saw the 2 at the front they looked like shriveled up little arms, it looked pretty funny

    Looks to me like the big arms/legs hook into prey, and I guess then it starts sucking your blood? Maybe it drops down from above and wraps you in webs like Shelob

    my first guess was squid but after closely looking over it and seeing the face with the little 2 red eyes on one side of the face so im guessing its some kind of spider/crab/squid kind of thing ik its missing the crab claws but I thought it was kinda similar due to karkinos having 3 legs aswell wich I find odd this thing does aswell considering squids have more arms then what spiders and crabs do other then that I am rlly excited for this one and the bladewasp and magma drake those guys will be on my hitless if tameable. : )

    Because they're listening. A very large amount of people wanted an ocean map and have wanted one for a long time.   Now we might actually finally be getting one. This is pretty exciting. (And even if we don't, there's always the possibility the devs might make Tiamat an official mod some day.)

    They can get a steady cash flow and better servers all in 1 action. Offer Premium Servers for a fee, $10 local a Month. It will weed out the noobs who play for a day and quit, it will provide a steady cash stream and they will be able to afford better servers.
