  • Community Crunch 513: Dragon the Anchor

    image.png

    The simulation is stretching to its limits, and on July 2nd, the boundaries fracture completely. With the official arrival of Genesis Ascended Part 1 and ARK Tides of Fortune, the world transforms into a massive, uncharted nautical frontier.

    Survivors will soon trade solid ground for rolling waves and physics-driven waters, charting courses across vast oceans in search of buried fortunes, custom fleets built to clash in explosive naval warfare, and the kind of high-seas trouble that only Bob could insist is completely, unquestionably true. 

    For now, enjoy the calm before the tide rolls in. Stockpile your resources, rally your crew, and take one last look at the shore. The sea is calling, but keep an eye on the shifting clouds too; the ocean isn't the only place where legends are beginning to stir.

    Official Classic servers will be transitioning to Conquest servers shortly after Genesis 1 is launched. Conquest focuses on large-scale PvP, with increased rates, and other changes listed below. There will be a 3 day transferring period from Classic servers to some of the Genesis 1 Conquest servers. The increased rates will allow tribes to set up and establish themselves quickly and enable them to rebuild after potential losses instead of being wiped completely.

    The official Classic/Conquest servers are open for PC, Xbox and PlayStation and Conquest servers will go live on July 3rd at 4 PM PDT.

    If you need any support during the Conquest season, join the Conquest Enforcement's Discord.

    Wonder if there will be any underwater mines that spawn around the map under control if the faction that seem to live on the islands. I'd bet most players haven't crafted one or seen how effective (or ineffective) they are.

    If the ocean area is now bigger, imagine if they add the Shasta or even if Leeds now spawned. Probably won't be any Leeds getting added though as nobody would want to sail far with the new ships and just end up keeping them close and shallow by the islands for safety. If this zone prevents fliers and gliders then there might be a real push for ship combat between tribes; at least until the weekend after transfers open up... then all unprotected ships will get sunk when someone brings their mega levelled Tuso over.

    With external talks that the Genesis 1 water changes might come to other maps later on, it'd be unlikely but cool to get this added to Scorched Earth and Extinction's small & shallow waters and not just see the changes on the maps with whole oceans.

    Hell yeah most definitely bummed out about the delay. But I get it what can go wrong will go wrong specially a game as big as ark. Maybe we can get some type of video footage? Or perhaps a trailer?

    Don't forget the new Palaeoctopus. Even if there is no Leeds added they will still attack your new ships.

    I really hope this map isn’t made so easy that I can just fly through it. And please add gold Daubloons that we can collect and show off our enormous piles of money. Thank you. Also there should be servers that are pve/pvp naval warfare thank you.
