  • Community Crunch 218: New Free Map DLC, New Sponsored Mods, and On The Horizon

    Introducing Crystal Isles

    ARK_Crystal_Isles_Promo_STA.jpg

    We are very excited to announce that the one-of-a kind experience of the ISO: Crystal Isles map will be coming to PC, XBOX, and PlayStation this Summer!

    Crystal Isles is a stunning, other-worldly map filled with a vibrant display of teeming life scattered amidst its varied landscapes, awe inspiring floating islands and breathtaking biomes. Ever since Crystal Isles launched as a mod in 2016, its fantasy appeal has secured its place as one of the most popular maps within the ARK community and we can't wait to bring it to players as a fully supported free DLC.

    The Crystal Isles DLC will also launch resplendent with a new real-world dinosaur to tame! What do you think the new dinosaur may be?


    In other news, we've been itching to share that we'll be performing a TLC Pass 3 in the Summer of 2020! This TLC pass will see some of our classic creatures get some new love via visual and functional upgrades.

    As we move closer to the release of the new Crystal Isles DLC and our much-awaited TLC Pass 3 we'll share more details and information with our players.

    Dead Survival

    Dead-Survival-banner_min.jpg

    Tired of dinosaurs? Of course you aren’t, but sometimes we do want a little change in our diet. Dead Survival does just that, you can swap out the wildlife of the game with some … not… quite life? Zombies… I’m trying to say you can have zombies. Lots and lots of zombies. Hordes of them even.

    Check out the Dead Survival Mod

    Roleplay Additional Items

    RP communities have been a long time aspect of ARK, but sometimes our core structures can feel a bit insubstantial when you are trying to build a set for acting in. Roleplay Additional Items can add a lot more flourish to your locations from lighting structures and gear, to new taxidermy stations!

    Check out the Roleplay Additional Items Mod

    ArkVenture Park

    I’m pretty sure we have all dreamed of having our own backyard water slides and roller coasters. (Zen may have actually tried at one point, and failed… obviously) But now you can do just that in your base. Build that mine-cart roller-coaster that plows through your living room or a water-slide to the lava pools out back!

    Check out the ArkVenture Park Mod

    Castles, Keeps, and Forts: Remastered

    Mod_banner_Template_1080_Modified.jpg

    CKF development went dormant for a little while while the author went on a break. But it’s back, and getting a face-lift. The author is taking what they learned over the years and working on a remastered CKF (The original is still available). So far it’s looking great!

    On The Horizon

    Primitive+

    Primitive+ remains a priority.  We have engineering teams working on the complications from the Genesis update.  We will keep you informed with any significant progress

    Genesis Part I Update

    We're continuing to work on Genesis bugs and balance and we plan to keep up with the rapid iterations. Thank you for your reports and feedback.

    I play any chance I get but always look up to weekends for the EVO event that is when I go gather resources for the rest of the week, if no resources get collected that whole next week for me is rather useless. Just saying.

    And no, I have Genesis but I'm not that type of player so not spending my time on it.

    I might be the only one, but for once im glad there is no 2x event, it will just attract more ppl to the genesis servers making it harder to log in if its full

    Agreed?

    Cedric what you got against old people (real world dinosaurs) lol 

    But on a real note, "resplendent", "real world dinosaur " 

    Real world - not mythological  or alive today

    Resplendent- colorful (in reference to the map and or creature)

    .....I'd give a guess but if right and has negative fanfair  it "MAY" be changed

    I just found out the main guy who is harasing me has a YouTube channel. He has video evidence of him getting God mode on an official server. His tribe also has brought reapers over from aberration and they just run around caging people, unable to die because they all have God mode. Cedric if you can reach out I can give you the link to this video and his Xbox gt. His YouTube channel already has a video on how to get God mode..

    I was wondering if someone can answer a quick question for me. I was wondering if any of the new genesis creatures are allowed on abb. My main server is an abb and I already tamed a ferox on genesis. I have it in cryo on abb and was wondering if I would be able to use it

    Which server is this, so I know to steer clear of that mess? As if ARK wasn’t hard enough...

    we also got homestead some of the s+ items.  No all but some.. 

    As they stated ages ago they could not add all the features of S+ into the  game because most of its features would render some aspects of the game useless so they only chose certain items to be brought in to the game.

    Not to sound crude but what kind of stupid logic is that?  They don’t have a problem adding in 20 different animals that turn into lawn ornaments and are completely useless for anything other than a garden gnome.  There’s a ton of things they could have added from S+ that would be a benefit and would not render some aspects useless.  The flipable sloped walls?  Adding snap points to sloped ceilings? Large pillars like large walls?  I’m just saying they could have added much more from the S+ mod without rendering certain aspects of the game useless, sorry that is probably one of the biggest BS excuse to come from studio WC.

    I wasn't questioning anything so I didn't need clarification. I reminded someone of something.

    I am so stoked for the TLC pass. The promised face lifts that never happened still desperately need to be done. Megaloceros jumps to mind immediately. It was always a bit wonky and square (despite being one of my favorites), but with the newer creatures, it just looks so outdated. It's my go to thatch harvester because it's so speedy and I can't wait to see if it gets included this time.

    Also excited fro Crystal Isles. I saw it years ago and was sad I'd probably never get to play it.

    What about all those people that work weekends and can never experience the Evo events, they finally get a once-in-a-liftetime special Evo event in the week to enjoy. You don't get a weekend event on one occasion and you claim it's unfair.

    Geez what an attitude.

    Mad because you ain't getting paid or just cranky?

    I noticed it not the first time. Whenever you give something bonus (e.g. now x3 for players record - it was previously in Extinction too) in the next weekend it is reflected in the Evo Event - that there is no Evo Event this weekend. It's a bit silly because I have the impression that it would be better to get a normal x2 week by week than x3 one week and zero next.

    We wait all week and plan what to tame over the weekend. It was the same this time, but you are taking away this weekend fun

    I know what you meant, but today's x1 is actually x2 of the original rates. So people think of the normal rates now as x1 but they technically are x2.

    So anyone that wants the normal rates to become x2 standard means that it would technically be x4 rates.

    If you already want to be so super accurate and brilliant in remarks, just like me you should instruct devs that giving x2 in fact they give X4

    Dude i'm fully employed working from home Mon - Fri earning £40k, so yeah i am getting paid.

    Just pointing out how you make a fuss over one weekend without EVO when those that work weekends go every week without EVO.
