  • Unravelling the Mysteries of the ARK: Ruins!

    Survivors!

    large.Ruins.jpg

    Earlier in the year we began slowly unravelling some of the mysteries that surround the ARK. We started off with showing off some of the Explorer Notes, and now we’d like to introduce you guys to another part of the story, the Ruins!

    large.573a81f93ca0c_Ruins2.jpg

    Various historical ruins will be found all across the ARK, we encourage survivors to go on adventures and seek them out as they hold the key into unlocking the secrets of the ARK, providing insight into its true nature! Through the hundreds of handcrafted notes and logs found at these locations, you’ll learn about the backstories of the Survivors in whose footsteps you follow, and what their fates may have been -- or perhaps uncover the hidden recipes to powerful dishes, or even what the Wildcard devs drink to avoid sleeping :P

    Who knows! Intrepid Survivors will have to find out by going on the hunt to uncover them all -- the first set of Ruins & Explorer Notes releases with the forthcoming Biome update! ;) 

    ...And one more thing: Are you ready to stake your claim on The Center tomorrow? Because It's Ready For You!!! We'll see all you Survivors on this new ARK tomorrow afternoon, on Xbox and PC!

    All the best,

    Wildcard Jat and the ARK: Survival Evolved Team!

    My question is: How're the ruins on The Center map compared to these? So far, it looks as if we've only got crumbling walls and the odd pillar. The Center map has, what I dub, The Hall of Heroes with columns on each side.

    is the new map going to have these on it to? and the new bios etc?

    My friend runs a dedicated xbox server for ark and is thinking of putting the new map on but is all the ruins and logs etc going to be placed in the new map to? hoping so.

    But for now.. I CAN'T WAIT!!!   :Torpor:

    Those ruins look amazing!

    I see there's one on Dead Island, does that mean there'll be one over at South Haven?

    Also, will these affect bases? If there is one at South Haven I'm going to need to move.

    Valhalla's ruins look new and clean(at least most of them). Not a fan, but to each his own :)

    they realy are one huge continuous ruin. looks like an aztec/cliff dwelling civilization built them. yeh they do look a little cleaned up, but the busted up walls and barely-there bridges are fun to look around in

    I just want a big ruin cave/dungeon at least, where it feels as if you're playing a fantasy RPG or something.

    It's a Giga, you can tell by the head.

    I hope so. I host a dedicated server and first thing I want to do is switch maps.

    Oh wow, the first thing I thought when seeing those ruins was 'I want that vase.  In my base.'

    This is awesome! I can't wait to try and find them. It's great to figure out more about the story of Ark and how you come to wake up on an island with dinosaurs and a creepy little thing in your arm. Ps does anyone else think the sound when you first wake up on the beach sounds like being unzipped from a body bag? Because I always have! Haha great job guys!
