  • Community Crunch 383: Community-Voted Creature Recap and Community Corner!

    welcome_crunch2023-1.png

    The wait for the Dreadnoughtus reveal is almost over!  Be on the lookout for the concept in the Community Crunch next week.  We're bursting with excitement for the arrival of all the community-voted creatures in ARK: Survival Ascended. Your involvement and participation are shaping the world, and we can't wait to see them in action.  Here's a recap of the community-voted creatures you can expect to see on ARK: Survival Ascended:

    Fasolasuchus is a dangerous denizen of Scorched Earth. Their ambushes and sand-whirlpool attacks make them a formidable threat. Taming these creatures is a challenging task due to their resistance to narcotics, but those who succeed gain a powerful companion for traversing the scorching sands.

    Gigantoraptor, despite its intimidating size, is a nurturing creature, fiercely protective of its young. While taming adults seems impossible, taming their young can be rewarding, as they grow up to care for your tribe's creatures, teach them to fight, and help locate orphaned animals.

    ASA_YiLing_Post_2560x1440.png

    Yi Ling demonstrates remarkable agility, clinging to walls, gliding short distances, and evading attacks. It preys on smaller creatures, launching barbed feathers at them and rapidly regenerating its protective plumage. Tamed Yi Ling serves various purposes, from scouting caravans to harassing foes, with its unique diet potentially influencing its combat abilities!

    ASA_Shastasaurus_Post_2560x1440.jpg

    Shastasaurus, akin to the Ichthyosaur, exhibits a profound fascination with humans. Taming this majestic sea creature proved to be a remarkable experience. Some tribes have even equipped Shastasaurus with periscopes, torpedo bays, and cargo holds, turning them into fantastical aquatic vehicles reminiscent of a bygone children's cartoon.

    Another wasteful community crunch. I wish Studio wildcard would hurry up and release the game so the dev's that were working on other projects can get back to work on that game. I do wish the company the best of luck, but Studio Wildcard and Snail games will not get any better with Snail games at the control. With this being said, I will not waste any more money on broken games from either companies. The lack of information is a sign of bad business decisions.

    I feel like I age an extra five years whenever people reference Vin and immediately go the the FF family thing. Sometimes I remember that there are people younger than Saving private Ryan, Pitch black and xXx that are of legal drinking age and my soul shudders in anguish.

    You don't want this.  I guarantee you the devs are in a nightmare situation.  Telling management that their expectations are unreasonable, being completely ignored, mandatory overtime, rage quitting.  Speaking as a software developer, I'm willing to bet that they've had multiple dev teams quit en masse.  They are likely gagged by NDAs, but you could probably verify it by checking how many people have changed their LinkedIn employment status over the past year.

    All of the event content will be added to the PC game at the end of the year's cycle of events so they can be opted into for our PC unofficial server owners and players. Our console players will be able to grab all event cosmetics from the Hex store!

    So far also Steam/EGS version only heve the cosmetics on Hex store (except the infamous dilo mask) like consoles. After ASA crunch time, please port all the events back like grove street game did for switch! (yes folks, swtich versions can store all events at time!)

    I was really hoping they'd follow through that but it's been almost a year since the last event & the only one that works correctly is the winter wonderland event.  So at this point while I wanna have hope that they are gonna stick to it & actually add the events to the game, I very highly doubt they are gonna hold true to their word.

    Man, I was really hoping we'd get SOMETHING this crunch :(

    I appreciate that they're still taking time to do the crunches, but when you're this excited, these "no news" crunches are rough.

    They will give you the info for the game when they have had your money if the games as good as they recon it should be advertised to death for the past weeks

    As we all expected, the chances of getting delayed is becoming higher each day. 2 weeks left still no information about the game... Only promises

    You guys were right on time to put an end to ASE but to even get a teaser of ASA, it seems like we're still gonna have to wait.. I'm pretty sure even the crunch author is ashamed.. 

     

    Launch is most likely gonna be delayed (as usual), and when it's finally going to come out, it's still gonna be full of bugs.. Just know you're losing players by the day

    Seriously, why turn off servers if you guys are not even ready for the new game? When you don't even plan to release any info or content?!?! You should have left official servers running, this is so disappointing.

    The marketing team got an assignment to sell a survival game and is now testing who is surviving their marketing.
    If only ARK is getting as tough as this marketing campaign we would never see cryopods again!

    Will everybody stop moaning. We aren’t getting a single thing until the game is out. No screenshots, no gameplay, nothing. There’ll be a trailer upon release that’s it (dollies words). Please stop checking the community crunch every week if you don’t want to expect disappointment. Pretend the game doesn’t exist for 3 weeks and enjoy something else until then. I don’t know how much simpler to put it

    If you spent less time thinking up useless community crunches like this and more time on ASA maybe the community would would get an actual release date from you 😴😴😴😴😴
