  • ARK: Eggcellent Adventure & The Swamp and Snow Caves

    large.Eggscellent.jpg

    ARK Survivors can now experience the one-week-only "Eggcellent Adventure" Event! During this limited-time event, players can collect special "Bunny Eggs" across the ARK, which they can paint or use in special recipes to craft bunny-themed items such as Bunny Ears, or even a Bunny Costume for the Procoptodon! Though Survivors should beware the ferocious Bunny-Dodorex that will roam the ARK throughout the week!

    Patch 237 also introduces the much anticipated challenging new Swamp and Snow Caves, which are heavily-geared towards High Level Survivors, containing high-end loot, advanced artifacts, and more clues towards the mysterious Origins of the ARK!

    Be warned though survivors, these caves are no easy feat and keep an eye out for those Yetis!

    Looking forward to the caves. Liking the prospect of more backstory for the ARK too. Keep up the good work, and thank you!

    When is Ark going to realize where most of their money is coming from? It would be nice to get the same opportunity on the Xbox as the PC people get. How about for once release something new on the Xbox first......We would be happy with SOTF.... Here is an idea take all the money from PC purchase put it into PC development and all the Xbox money and put it into Xbox development....

    Any ideas on the cords of these caves? Will the affect current bases? 

    GPS coords are: 29,31 for Snow & 62,37 for Swamp. There may be slight structural changes around those areas (entrances - I think PvE only actually) however the far majority of the caves are new areas so structures should generally be good!

    It's been explained why numerous times...

    You can blame Microsoft directly for Xbox not getting holiday content, because it costs wildcard a MINIMUM of $10k for every patch they release. It's also the reason they release patches in "bundles" on xbox. I wouldn't do it either, and don't blame them one bit. Once Microsoft decides to let companies release patches for free, you might be able to see things like this...(steam does not have this same practice)

    Don't like it, give Bill Gates a call.

    Most of their money...what a joke.

    Xbox players paid hard earned money for ARK, we deserve the events too. stop ditching xbox users.

    You really are uninformed on money issues, i'm a computer tech. the amount of money they get from xbox vs. pc more then covers that chump change.

    No-one is being ditched. Be grateful you even have the game unlike PS4.

    The method for deploying Patches on Xbox One is very different process than Steam. If you understood exactly what the process was then you might understand more why these events are only on PC for the time being.

    So you understand about the Xbox One process for deploying patches? Because that's a console not PC.

    I don't have a degree, no, but I do know that Xbox has a QA certification process which is a much bigger obstacle for Patches than Steam has. Steam can get Patches out much quicker and considering the events are timed specific then it is easier to get them on Steam. No-one has ever said that Xbox will never get events. The Events are used to test these sort of things to see how well they go down.

    This is my understanding of the situation. I could be wrong. But none of it has anything to do with needing to have computer degrees. So less of the throwing "I have a degree" in peoples faces.

    You seem fixated on hardware here.

    You understand what the Xbox QA Process is? It's a Quality Assurance process. Nothing to do with hardware, it is a certification process to ensure that Patches work, don't crash the Xbox etc etc. Steam does not have a QA process. But you seem fixated on throwing your degrees around and talking about micro processors?

    Or when I say Xbox One process you think i'm saying processOR.

    No, i know the QA process is different, used to do QA work just that when that person started with the money your company gets from PC vs. gamers on xbox was, lets say very wrong. and actually i like good QA work means less problems. what set me off was people think i know nothing about it.

    Hey,  genius. When are you going to realize that the game is in development,  and because the game is  a PC Game ported to the Xbox one, and is devved on PCs, that it's the best way to go about it. There is no "pc development and Xbox development" Everything is devved,  pushed to PC, then has to be modified for Xbox before it can get ported. 

    TL:DR

    Actual development -> ported to PC - >reworked and ported to Xbox.

    one more thing, play the game on xbox and you'll wonder if they did QA at all. play and you will see why.
