    The stream will be hosted by the lovely Forest Rapczak and Catfu (formerly ThatsCat)! They'll be doing giveaways, ARK Games, as well as hanging out with some of the other developers, content creators, and much more! ;)

    Happy Halloween!

    C46DAAC23107B9FE663131009BFBF3E1DDB00DCE

    This Halloween the ARK is undergoing a spooky seasonal change where the air is colder, the days shorter and the nights longer! Starting on Monday, the 30th of October, all official servers on every platform will be placed under a witches' curse lasting 48 hours! During this time, survivors may encounter abnormal overworld spawns and can find themselves in for a treat with returning cosmetics and valuable stated items available in the drops!

    The event will begin at 12 PM ET on Monday the 30th of October and run until 7 PM ET on Wednesday the 1st of November.

    Xbox Rental Servers Update!

    ARK Digest 52!

    Here is our special Aberration edition question and answer session with Lead Designer, Lead Programmer, Co-Creative Director of ARK: Survival Evolved, and Co-Founder of Studio Wildcard: Jeremy "Drake" Stieglitz!

    Survivor AnimalMind asks, “It was mentioned about 5-6 months ago that we would get tribe owned personal enforced pinned vaults. Any idea when this is coming or if it ever is?”

    Quote

    By next weekend!

    Survivor Dafser asks, “Did consoles will have paint download for dinos?”

    Quote

    In a manner of speaking: on all platforms, we’ll be adding the ability to “snapshot” the templates directly from painting / painted-dino / painted-character that are set to “Allow Paint Snapshotting”. 

    Survivor MrCrackMan asks, “Since Aberration creatures are separate from standard ones can they get wider color variation to furthur distinguish them?”

    Quote

    Yes indeed, they will.

    Survivor Dfritz asks, “Lore question.... All creatures on ark appear to be created genetically. Did you guys have a thought process about the Rock Elementals? Like kinda an inorganic creature like on Galaxy Quest? Or organic but just appears rocky (and eats rocks)? Or did you just want to an awesome creature?”

    Quote

    The rocks on its exterior are not its internal organic form. Think of it like a Hermit Crab.

    Survivor Hosiaha69 asks, “Can we get Charge(d) or UV ammo for fighting the Nameless. Figure Glow bug blood or some kind of Bioluminescent mushroom paste to craft them.”

    Quote

    There will be various weapons of sorts specifically designed to fight Charge-vulnerable creatures.

    Survivor edskelly asks, “Can you make active pve legacy saves available? Many of the people on legacy are just feeding dinos and resetting timers while waiting for their save.”

    Quote

    Certainly, we’ll do a savedata drop of the current PvE legacies this next week, for all platforms.

    Survivor pradox asks, “With the new DLC adding new Engrams to learn are you going to do something about the mind wipe for people that are at max and wouldn't be able to learn them?”

    Quote

    Yes, there will be a one-time automatic mindwipe on all survivors upon the release of Aberration.

    Survivor Koorogane asks, “Hey, would it be at all possible for you guys to add in a dino list similar to the engram list? One that lets us control which dinos spawn on the world and the rate at which they spawn.”

    Quote

    We’ll be looking into doing that later this year, it would particularly useful for console players (PC players can largely already achieve what you describe through INI values).

    Survivor DigitalVagrant asks, “With Aberration promising some lore-heavy story developments, are we going to see any "endgame" or Tek presence on Scorched Earth?  Canonically, that's where Helena and Rockwell head after The Island, and it would be nice to feel like we've "beaten" that map as well.  A lore presence on The Center would be great as well, as I think the story/lore is the best part of ARK, and it would be great to feel like every official map is essential and necessary to travel to in order to get the full picture.  This would be a great way to demonstrate the appeal of map transferring.”

    Quote

    Yes, we intend to add a cinematic ending to Scorched Earth and a set of its own Tek Engrams. The Center and Ragnarok will remain non-canonical however, at least with respect to the journey of our “hero” characters.

    Survivor 5avageOne asks, “Will there be a art book for scorched earth creatures and aberration creatures + griffin in the future?”

    Quote

    Perhaps after the third Expansion, if all goes well :)

    Survivor DromaeoSapiens asks, “What will be the fate of the Dodorex now that the game in officially released? Will it remain a holiday event creature or do you guys have something else is mind?”

    Quote

    You might well see it become canon somewhere within the third Expansion!

    ARK: 2x Evolution Event Weekend!

    large_evo.jpg.c149355b6876e90a92100abdb5

    NVidia Ansel Photography Contest

    large.Ansel.jpg.683f020687f3fe873c17912d

    Super Resolution Version: http://images.nvidia.com/ansel/SuperResolution/ARK-SuperResolution1/ARK__Survival_Evolved_HighRes_2016_09_01_-_14_38_36_55.html

    ARK: Survival Evolved and the Scorched Earth Expansion Pack now include support for NVIDIA Ansel -- a revolutionary new way to capture in-game shots.  Compose shots from any position, adjust with post-process filters, capture HDR images in high-fidelity formats, and share the screenshots in 360 via a smartphone, PC or VR headset. 

    Learn more about these features from the NVIDIA blog.

    Now let’s get to the contest!

    There were 3 potential categories for survivors to enter their shots into and they were the following:

    Three Categories

    Super Resolution: These should be taken at 8x Super Resolution. Players can optionally use Depth of Field effects accessible in Spectator mode by pressing the [Delete] key.

    Panoramic 360 Stereoscopic 3D: These should be taken at 4x Super Resolution,  in 360 Stereoscopic 3D mode. We will crop them to 2D for web display, while also providing the 3D version for viewing within VR display.

    Freeform: Any settings, whacky and creative use of Ansel filters are encouraged. Adding humorous titles/captions in Photoshop is also acceptable for this category!

    And now without further ado, here are your entries!

    You’ll want to click on the image title to be able to download the maximum size image, we’ve resized them for display purposes

    What about the saves of the servers that were wiped on release, for xbox specifically how will we download those saves and host them through the xbox nitrado app?

    @Jatheish @Jen Are you ever going to fix the primitive+ engrams on Ragnarok so we can make scorched earth engrams, like the boomerang for instance, that are available on that map on the Tek servers? Also, since you have no new primitive official servers, could you please make a scorched earth primitive+ server so that I didn’t waste my money buying that dlc.

    Just 2 days of Halloween? That... really sucks!

    Most other games give you a week or more of events so you can actually enjoy it.  :ph34r:

    Heterocephalus glaber. I,m glad to see this creature in Aberration. In real life this rodent can`t die or even suffer from cancer, and have lifespawn at least 8 times longer, than most of other rodent.1280px-Nacktmull.thumb.jpg.fb7928ed21b9cf888310d75180241b2d.jpg

    Aw I'm so sad I missed the CC, spent some time taking screenshots and thought I'd send them today :P Oh well, I'll wait for the next one :)

    Congratulations to all the winners.

    Just an FYI, the entry period is normally Tuesday-Friday with the Crunch results being posted on Saturday. So always try and aim for Friday as the latest for submission.

    Yes indeed. It's just that usually I see a reminder to send entries, and this week has been busy for me so I totally forgot until I saw the CC posted :P

    It's one of the little pictures on the extra life section. Maybe it was from last year?

    I think he was referring to that charity image which displayed last years included content in that stream.

    Oh yes, that was shown off last November during the charity stream. Ben aka EvilMrFrank was working on a Scorched Earth related SotF map, but unfortunately never saw the light of day before development on the mode stopped.

    2 days of Halloween content is inexcusable.  And only during the work week as well?  How hard is it to flip the switch and make Fear Evolved or Fear Evolved 2 active again?  If you're too busy fixing Aberration to make something completely new that's understandable, but I've been looking forward to hunting the DodoRex and DodoWyvern for a long time.  At least add in the option to activate past events on single player and non-official servers.  All the content and code is already in the game.  Seems like a no-brainer to me.

    To be fair, real life only gets 1 day for a Halloween event. In comparison 2 days of trick or treating in the game is 100% more Halloween.

    If you think events around Halloween in real life are only on the 31st you must not get out much. Most food chains have themed foods for the entire month, most Halloween only costume shops open the first week of October, and many networks have month long movie marathons just to name a few. Most games have content starting around the second or third week of October, and lasting until Halloween, or the week after.

     

    I feel this clearly shows where their priorities lie regarding the base game vs DLC, I even foresaw something like this happening back in august and asked about it during one of their Q and As before the next DLC was even announced.

    Will Mutated Scorched Earth creatures be present in Aberration? I would be bereft without my fluffy Jerboa.
