Community Crunch 224: Anniversary Event, Crystal Isles Launch, New Dino & More!

maybe they should not allow flyers in the floating islands, i mean maybe they should allow ravagers only. KEEP THE ROCK DRAKES!! valguero had no rock drakes even though there was an aberration system. PLEAS WILDCARD, KEEP THE ROCKDRAKES PLEEEAAAASSSSSEEEEE!!!!! ?

wow i cant wait for crystal isles to release as a official map onto consoles and pc reeeeee and keep up the amazing @Wildcard and take al the time you need to make the map stable as possible

I'm so excited, congratulations ARK!

That new Dinosaur looks awesome, I would love to tame one, I'm so excited.

I want to know whats in the goodie bag!

Same! I’ll post it online somehow when it arrives.

Some people love this announcement but I hate it. I feel like I have stood up for wildcard again and again when people where mad at them. I understand delaying a map for console but not even releasing it within the same timespan hurts me. I love Ark. I love wildcard. I’m frustrated because this map was ALREADY available for pc. And they are acting like they are releasing a map on the 4th when really it won’t even be close to that. 

Just to provide some clarity surrounding the new creature. It'll be found on Crystal Isles on PC, and on Console it will be available on the other maps (list TBD). Once we've released Crystal Isles on Consoles, we'll be adjusting its spawn so it's found there instead. Whilst the map needs some additional time to get it ready on console, the creature will be ready and we didn't want to hold it back. Plus with the launch of CI, we'll still get some new Wyvern variants which'll be fresh at the time.

anyone else see the gun on its back, well, here comes another pvp destroying flyer, this time, with guns on its back.

Yeah it will be awesome for a week, then the pvp crybabys will start and by week 2 it will be nerfed.

You can't tame it. It tames you.

Ornithocheirus is the New Dino inn the sky, but ! wil it be painfully slow like they ahve done to EVERYTHING that can fly so far. stay tuned for this and more . Survive the ARK, and remember, We hate you !

im just wondering if this mod is already on PC. then it shouldn't take long for console. maybe just getting all the security approval from Xbox and sony

Isolde who made the map did a lot of work on Atlas so there's not been many major updates to Crystal Isles in nearly 2 years, last update was October last year and that just fixed a few bugs and added owls, gasbags & gachas, last time the map was updated was July 18, there's a couple of biomes that needed to be completed plus the stuff WC will want removing, it also needs a lot of optimising as it melts cpu's, Eldritch Isle kills my PC with all the effects going on so god knows what'll it'll do to base PS4's ?

So no, it wasn't ready on PC and just needs certification for the consoles

that will get nefted to oblivion so it'll be pointless to use in pve yep sounds about right and just like the Managarmr

so ready for crystal wyverns 

It honestly got over nerfed the manager

Add Ark Console mods so that console players can have more fun

Bello il fatto di avere una nuova creatura preistorica. Però io mi aspettavo un dinosauro nuovo e non un rettile volante...? Comunque pazienza spero almeno che non leverete questa volta il drago di roccia come  avete fatto su valguero...? e che ci siano tutte le creature mods della mappa crystal isles.?

This new dino looks like Ornithocheirus or Tropeognathus.

I agree. It looks like either one but don’t ask me how to say the names lol ?  

Edit   It said dizzying so another spin attack Dino? Or can turn like a tape?

I’m guessing ark action figures and a map/poster of the island or something. Btw what did you make your model out of?

Are we getting a rainbow of colored dinos for the Anniversary event? Would like to see every color of the rainbow out there for a week.

Whoa, you're keeping the Crystal Wyverns? Any guesses as to whether they will ever be transferable?
