Jen 1,719 Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Hey Survivors! PC update v257 has been pushed back a few days with a new ETA of May 4th. In combination with the patch needing more time in the oven (have you seen the patch notes? There is a ton of stuff in this patch!), we want to give players time to move their bases out of the volcano area. Console players take note too, as this change will eventually come to you as well. In the next PC update, the volcano will be receiving an active remodelling which will consume anything in the vicinity. A client-side patch pushed out earlier today now includes these borders in your game so you can see the affected area. You are HIGHLY recommended to move out of the area before the v257 patch goes live. We would also like to share some new ARK music with you all! Patch v257 will include over 20 new music tracks that are both per-biome and situational. Where do you think these three tracks will be used? Guess in the comments below! We hope console Survivors are enjoying their new patch content today, and we'll see our PC Survivors next week with tons of new features including four new creatures, the TEK Cave & Volcano, Ascension, more UI overhaul, and more! UPDATE: Date has changed to May 4th, but here's another track to keep you grooving until then. Link to post Share on other sites
Myndmelt 68 Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Can't wait for the update. The new music tracks sound great. I especially like the 3rd track and I'm trying to imagine what situation you would encounter them in. I'm guessing different boss battles and caves. Link to post Share on other sites
SassinPr0ph3cy 28 Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Will consoles get the border outline? Like when the redwoods came? Link to post Share on other sites

Reventern 11 Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 I really love these tracks. I'm excited to see their implementation into the game. And I feel like the third track has something to do with the jungle? Link to post Share on other sites

Voidmaster 2 Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 As far for the 1st track, sounds more like the futuristic part of ARK, I'm assuming its going to be a whole new Biome Related to Tek teir, either the Tek Cave is going to be the Biome. or the Cave will Be a gateway to a new Tek Biome where a Tribute pedestal will be located to summon the Last boss (IMO) Ascension related. 2nd Track feels more battle situated, in the TEK cave battle music, Though it sounds way more cinematic, than a regular generic soundtrack being attacked by a raptor, so therefore my true Opinion is this song relates to like all the other Bosses have their own Epic soundtrack therefore the second track could be related for the Last boss .... (All three are really good btw :D) 3rd. Feels more like a nostalgic Primitive Ark Soundtrack, could be used for Prim+, or maybe a new ARK, Maybe Oceanic related little islands and all ocean . Just like SE when they had the Egyptian soundtrack incorporated with ARK soundtrack, I don't know what to think, definitely sounds intriguing. Whatever they may be used for is all fine, I'm so glad to hear/See new stuff coming form you all and as like every survivor WE are ready to tame the new content you throw at us Link to post Share on other sites
Noble Jon 0 Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Looking forward to the volcano update. I agree with Voidmaster. The first track sounds like it'd be used in a cave. The second sounds like it'd be used for a boss battle. However, the third one sounds more like a title track, used when the game launches. The last 20 seconds of the clip even carry over a bit of the existing theme. Link to post Share on other sites
rororoxor 223 Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Care to tell us where this music will be used? btw that second track sounds so haunting....its amazing. Link to post Share on other sites
rororoxor 223 Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 3rd song reminds me of cs-go a little bit. Link to post Share on other sites
PuffyPony 742 Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Just now, rororoxor said: Care to tell us where this music will be used? Jen said to guess My guesses are: 1- Tek Cave, like everyone else said 2- Obviously some kind of battle music, possibly the final boss or a redux of the Dragon? 3- I'm torn. Again, it actually sounds kind of like battle music, so possibly a Broodmother or Megapithecus redux Link to post Share on other sites

rororoxor 223 Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Wait a minute...could one of these tracks be for the 4th boss? That's featured in the ascension part? Link to post Share on other sites
StephaniRabbitheart 49 Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Love #2 and #3. Those are really awesome. I would love if the sound people would please show some love to the T-Rex and the wolves. The T-Rex walking and eating are like nails being scratched across a chalk board and the wolves just sound super wimpy. The raptors don't hardly have any sound at all now. Not even footsteps. When I am riding my T-Rex I have to turn my sound way down because it's super annoying. I hope they will fix that. Link to post Share on other sites
EchoingTime 203 Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 I hope the main menu, the single player changing stats menu, the loading screen, the options UI, etc is all changed. 2nd one may be the main menu music now? Link to post Share on other sites
DragonEnchantress 27 Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 I'm in love with that music =o i think the first one is the tek cave, second would be end boss battle and last volcano eruption? Link to post Share on other sites
LeviThePants 6 Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 First seems to be a cave. But enough people seem to have that idea already. Second - I'm getting a little Manticore here... something to do with SE? Third - I'm thinking jungle. Perhaps jungle combat? To add to that... This adds the one thing ARK was missing-awesome music everywhere! (It's like fitting in an important Jigsaw puzzle piece!) PPS I just noticed that on this post, it says MORE THAN 20 new tracks. The other says 15. (Yay! Bonus!) Link to post Share on other sites
Captmeatsack 6 Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Where does this theory of eruption volcano come from? Maybe I missed it but not once have I heard a dev say anything about eruption but yet everyone seems to think so. Link to post Share on other sites

The new interface is unintuitive and you did very little with it and half of what you did is bad. New Animals have no strategic value. Wyverns lost 15-20 levels for no reason. (even after spending the refunded speed points, I had a wyvern that hatched at 190, and was somehow not even 190) The flyer nerf was GROSSLY EXCESSIVE. Game is ruined at this point for many of us.
