    Last Week In ARK

    In this week's update, we take a look at bans and average deaths per server (PvE and PvP) over the past seven days. 

    There were a total of 732 bans this week between the enforcement team and BattleEye. The Enforcement team bans are done manually after investigation for various infractions of our Code of Conduct and BattlEye's bans are implemented for detection of third party software/cheats.

    We are curious as to why our Xbox players have so many PvE deaths. Haha!

    Olá Boa tarde, que horas o evento vai começar no Brasil?

     

    Literally read the post above.

    Also if you are PC [Steam/Epic] then it starts in an hour-ish from now.

    I've now mated nearly 300 of my X-rex and not a single Chocolate or Candy has dropped. "Randomly" seems like BS.

    I know the announcement says the chocolate drops from mating is random but it's a terrible drop rate compared to last year. I bred 50 gigas for our alliance just now and not 1 chocolate, nadda. And we did this last year so I'm aware of how it *should work* is the drop rate just that terrible this year or?

    And don't get me wrong, I'm very glad to have the event. This is one of our fav events of all but the candies/chocolates are one of the main things we look for.

    Thanks.

    Xbox, 58.46 GB update? Is Valentine's event happening on a new surprise map? Why so big of an update for some chibis?  Grand total of roughly 200 GB of HD space for Ark...Gen 2 coming also...

    THANK YOU WC! I posted earlier about the chocolates and candies not dropping from our gigas. I just came back after the update to do the rest.. We received a chocolate and a candy.. not from the same dinos but within 10 dinos mating where before the update we did 50 and got nothing.

    I know there are issues with the game, but you guys are really trying to fix the issues. You have our thanks!

    Crystal isles #844 been down for about 3hrs now. Dino's will probably dead when I get back on. Will this be fixed if the are in fact dead due to this unfortunate "15 minute" maintenance patch? Really can't stay up any later to wait for this to be fixed to pick up my dinosaurs not knowing when this will be fixed.
