    No breeding event every other weekend, no point playing.
    Who is running things over there? Making the most stupid decisions time after time. Its almost like you want to lose the players before Ark 2 comes out.

    ARK 2 concept looks great, but I'm hoping we could get some information regarding the various bugs involving Survival of the Fittest. I crash very frequently from...basically doing anything, and I'm playing on PS5. Not to mention the Sinomacrops Glider doesn't work whatsoever, and I've heard that SOTF is causing issues for people playing outside of the gamemode, which is very concerning.

    So since we had a lot Dino concepts mainly on animals from the Mesozoic era will we likely see anything from the Paleozoic or Cenozoic era or even any of the dlc creature that were on the ship or reveal one we have yet to await and see and if so can you give us a hint on the next Dino concept that might be

    Evo event without higher breeding rates. What kind of EVO weekend is this? Why do you still call it like that? :D Next event we can be glad when the EXP rate or the hexagon rate stay... Every time a bit less than before.

    Last evo WEEKEND: Official Servers: 3x XP, Harvesting, Taming, and Breeding (imprint, maturation, hatch/gestation), 0.5x Mating Interval, 1.5x Hexagon Bonus

    This evo WEEKEND: Official Servers: 2x XP, 2x Harvesting, 2x Taming, and 2x Hexagon Bonus

    Must be an earlier april fool :P

    the weapon system is cool and all but what I really want to see in ark 2 is more living space customization furniture and what not. id say building a nice home is a big part of ark as well.

    All the changes they making to Ark. All to make it better......and they still seem to be messing it up. Everything we learn about ark 2 seems like they are going more and more overboard. First off wild card bone armor and bone weapons are UGLY and impractical. Second if you add more spikes to a dino it doesn't make it cooler it makes it alot less likely to be able to move through trees and brush. This is just 2 of the many many changes they think we want. It is like they are trying to appeal to very young children or mall ninjas. WE WANT ARK 2 NOT ELDEN RING DINO ADDITION. Ark 2 should be ark 1 with better graphics, smarter AI more dinos, a better game engine, a more pronounced story. 

    Stop just stop get some help

    Outside of scorched earth ark has to my memory never released anything big on time. This should surprise no one.

    If I remember correctly, all Evo events had breeding rates in the last few months.
