we got the official 3-D model of the Tidepup, how does that count as zero information?

How do I submit fanart?

I didn't even notice it! Nice catch! (Btw genesis doesn't have obilesks for those who's asking "what's the big idea?")

When will you show something interesting in "Tides of Fortune"? You have to somehow entice buyers, because so far it doesn't look very promising. In my opinion, you should focus more on expanding the steampunk and dinosaur elements.

It's also possible, although unlikely, that it's dragontopia and not genesis part 1.

 

Again it's unlikely that the obelisk is from dragontopia but considering how we're not given how the genesis biomes operate it's my guess.

We've seen the tidepup. we know how it works, we know what it does. tell us about something else. show us the ships, show us a potential structure in tides of fortune. first it was the tidepup concept, then the dossier then the in game screenshot, i wanna see more, like the parrot, the costumes, a closer look at the ships, like how they showed us the concept for the battle rigs during extra life 2024. they are minimalizing everything to keep the hype up or they are only adding the ships, the costumes and the tidepup because they have nothing else to show

Alright im going to post a ticket, lets see what you guys are going to do. Apparently calling out cheaters is shaming, but how will i be compensated.

Oh yeah we cant submit a ticket because there's too many. 

But im the problem for being frustrated.

Gng I have an idea. Yall see the skull helmet thingy on the dude that's riding the Tidepup? What if it can be obtained by killing NPCs??? Like smth similar to the Thralls... I'm pretty sure some youtubers talked abt this possibility, but if that is indeed the skull of the enemy npcs, it means we have a glimpse at what they might look like.. 👀❓

Just me thinking haha

Dev Team, a small QoL ask as we get ready to step back into boss content gated by quests, can you please consider any / all of the following to make life with multiple characters a little easier?

1. Quest satisfaction state is account wide. (i.e. doing the quests to unlock the ability to start the fight on one character allows you to start the boss fight with any character.) There were a significant amount in Genesis 1 IIRC - 180ish - very painful with multiple characters.
2. Completing a higher quest version automatically completes lower quest versions. (Completing Beta will automatically complete Gamma if not completed, while completing Alpha will complete both Gamma and Beta if not completed.)

Thanks! Can't wait to see all the new goodies! ❤️

So seeing they stopped customer support, can someone with an inkling of intelligence tell me why 1) I still can't use any obelisk on any map. And 2) why mods won't uninstall? I wasted hours uninstalling then reinstalling the game, all the maps. And it didn't  help either issue. 

Not sure if a price has been posted or not but, is ARK: Tides of Fortune going to be $20, or $30? Hopfully it'll be $20 being just for 2 maps & not 3 like the other one but, I really don't have high hopes.

We get Gen 1 & Gen 2 with ASA, that's a given, I myself might hold off to see if the Bob's add-ons are worth it.

The Aberration steampunk adds (Embryo incubator especially) were enough for me to say Tall Tales was worth it. Everything else i could live without. To date still never built a vehicle from the extinction / wasteland stuff, don't need to.

I'm gonna be honest, I just want the axolot not the rest of the stuff. I don't even plan on doing anything with it, I just want to tame a bunch to hang around my base. I'm hoping they stick with more of the equivalent of 10 for 1 ($30 for 3 maps), instead of making the genesis maps 15 for 1 ($30 for 2 maps) . 

Edit. It's one of the few things from the bad (failed) ASE aquatica dlc I'd love to be ported over. The other(s) being the mantis shrimp (adorable little guys) , the seahorse (would be neat breeding considering the life cycle, also adorable little guys) , and the pearl gear-building set.

The axolot dude :), it is incredible and it fits perfectly on Genesis! The foto of flamekeeper2 is wild.

 

 

This guy is honestly really cool. The Tidepup is sick and honestly kinda cute.
