  • 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.


     

    New Sponsored Mods

    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

    RoleplayAdditionalItems.jpg

    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!

    Check out the Castles, Keeps, and Forts Mod

    Nigersaurus? the thing with the wired mouth?

     

    the animal found in the country of Niger in Africa? 

    its a short sauropod, and it has Shovel like Mouth.

     

     

    it would be cool it he can Deal a nice bit of damage, a Fast Movement speed,  it could emit a sound to scare of dinos, and he can, and a Stomp that does a Nice AOE Damage.

    In the tlc  make it so the archaeopteryx able to ride an your shoulder too 

    so it is more like a parachute where you can switch from shoulder to gliding so more people would tame it 

    and make mesopithecus carry torches since that would be super useful and change there graphics

    Human TLC would be Nice. to change the Model from skin type like from default , smooth , old etc

    Able to Change muscle volume. if you want to look riped? sure! want to look fatter then a mammoth? sure!

    Able to change height

    Hit boxes are Equal for Both male and female

    able to add or change. Face , eyes , eares, Hair length, Nose, Facial features, Body, arm and leg hair

     Males and females will start Bald then will slowly grow hair rather then just "pasted hair"

    but this is not only a Visual thing.

    player/humans will spawn with 200 wight

    When crouched in a Bush or something animals can't find you so easily

    When by a Fire you slowly gain more health

    you start with a "Base" tempager that will lower or raise depending on area and time of day   

    A stun lock Timer buff called "adrenalin" that makes you immune to stunning, Zapping or pouncing for a Few seconds and will give you a bit more speed and a Small damage boost. (also works with bolas)

    Food and water timers are slower and when you level into it you get +100 food or water so it could be worth putting points into.

    a "wellness" buff that happens when you don't die and you work , kill , eat, drink and tame. and gives you small buffs like. Plus 50 crafting skill , faster healing , More stamina , 25% less stamina drain, etc. however if you die 3 times with that perk it will go away. (they do not stack)

    once you unlock a Skin or emote via Boss , alpha , Cave drop , event or any "official way" it will be on you forever. (can disable)

    better Hand Grips on objects.

    able to eat while in Mid air or Underwater

    (with Scissors) able to halt a Hair growth by a Point. want to have no hair? sure , want to have half a small bread? sure!

    Alright look, I know you want to do the best to get new content out to keep players interested, especially on the pve side of things, however, the pvp side of things are not 100% yet, especially small tribes, I’m currently on Xbox smalls and it’s almost impossible to play, atleast 2 in 3 players are aimboting, resulting in these kinds of players being on top, I think you guys should really consider the whole cross play situation as it’s literally ruining small tribes, for me, ark small tribes is in the worst spot it has ever been in and it needs some serious attention, even temporarily removing cross play until you can find a solution would fix almost all the issues, there’s Xbox and pc servers for a reason and each player to stay to their respective platforms! I want to enjoy this game and it’s pvp it has to offer, however I cannot see how I can do this with most of the players I run into aimboting.

    FINALLY! Good lord, I have been looking everywhere in this forums for something about the primitive plus problems, and now. Literally since the genesis update, NOW! I find something about it.....I wish this was a little more out there to be found, but thank you for acknowledging the problems going on.

    As for many of the mods, I am very tempted to look harder into this as I would love something more than just some wooden chairs to decorate with, but its a shame there isn't more, and Im worried that much of this may not transfer to console.....we love to buy extra junk for in game mods too. :P

    Hola dios soy yo de nuevo 

    Nuevo dino digo que sea volador por que no hay muchos 

    Tlc recomiendo desde mi punto que se arregle puro animal de cueva para que complique las cuevas y sean más difíciles (especialmente la araña por que no da miedo y eso que me dan miedo las arañas) para que se vea que es imposible tener un artefacto en cualquier nivel

    Why do I have a respawn timer when I get killed by a Magmasaur? This isn't PvP so why do i have to wait 4 minutes to respawn?

    Was just thinking, castles and keeps mod will be a useless feature on official servers because they will be made of stone and get wiped very easily. If you are going to have castles and forts, at least bring back Primitive. Not Primitive Plus though because it sucks and is way too complicated.

    They said "real-world dinosaur". Meaning a dinosaur that really existed, nothing mythical.
