toolkit1779 Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 The new ending of Ascension Cave is pretty cool. New tek cave alpha ascension After taking the elevator at the end the game no longer ends.

toolkit1779 Posted August 29, 2017 Author Share Posted August 29, 2017 It looks like its pretty intense and this is just on single player. I did alpha ascension and you can bring in up to 50 tames. I also didn't lose items when I a respawned but my dino was gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PuffyPony Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 The final boss seems like it would be extremely difficult without TEK Gear. It (the Overseer) spawns a lot of Defense Units and flying dudes that I didn't kill, and it specifically can do a lot of damage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember the armor is very poor and the rifle does barely any damage. From what ive seen you would lose your armor 50 times over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what ive seen you would lose your armor 50 times over. I think it'd just depend on whether or not you can use your jetpack. Honestly any tames that can come are probably going to be distracting the adds, because they're unlikely to keep up with the boss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vrallox Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Very annoying boss fight. Even if it was done better it would still be underwhelming. That's the end boss? And the ending itself? Sheesh. I want my 20 minutes back. Haha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The limit has always been there for the cave, but the teleporter at the end used to not let dinos through so i assumed that it would do the same for the end boss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterManize Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 I am not going to spoil anything since i don't know anything about the ending. Rather this something that i have always thought up about Ark, a theory that i have believed to be true for so long and this highly supports my theory, for various reasons: The naming of the game: Ark, The dossiers that reveal hints, and the creatures themselves that aren't scaled or realistic as the ones from our own world. My theory comes into play as being rather logic. Ark is filled with extinct creatures from our own planet, that for some reason ended up being subjected to genetic engineering and brought back to live. Some of them were a success and live in the Arks, others weren't, or are still being researched upon to be added later, either through another Ark or in the official Ark itself. Humanity to be in the Ark, for me i believe them to be extinct in reality. The reason to why they have been brought back is up to interpretation. Spoiler My Theory is trying to give a reason as to why the creatures initially have been brought back to life. I believe it was to preserve live of our own planet to a major extent, even if it was extinct either by natural means or by human deeds, in the end, the reason of their own extinction doesn't matter. Only that live is being preserved through extensive and unimaginable technological means. These "Aliens", at first they were fascinated by the diversity of life that came to develop and evolve in our own planet, they started monitoring our own planet since the beginning of times, and thus decided to preserve it, through their own highly advanced technological means. However this proved to be a true challenge for them, in which resulted in rather extreme experiments to successfully bringing back even the simplest lifeforms, in the end the result was clearly mutant versions of the original creatures like the trike (that is a "cross breeding" between a styracosaurs and the triceratops - even though there isn't the original triceratops or the styracosaurus in the Ark). Eventually they came into contact with humanity, and were fascinated by them. Specially and specifically by their mythology and mythological creatures, so the experiments became "unorthodox", since the end goal of these experiments brought back the famous bosses: The Megapithecus, The BroodMother and the Dragon. From those experiments some undesirable byproducts came to be, the multitude of Wyverns. It was these byproducts that rather simplified their own understanding and desire to make unique life forms on their own, either by genetic manipulating a multitude of creatures into one, the Morelatops, or creating a version of the human's mythological creatures The Phoenix, Gryphin and perhaps maybe more in the future. In the mean time something must have had happened to our planet, which i believe to be destroyed completely. Humanity was extinct. And these aliens have a golden rule to preserve life, but there is a high risk of bringing a sentient species into the Arks, they were aware of it, and knew the basic human behavior that for having an advanced intellect, and, if they were brought back into Ark, aware of their confinement they would fight back or eventually go insane and either kill themselves or die. So they developed counter measures, to stop humanity awareness of their environmental confinement and decided to manipulate humanity minds from time to time to prevent the development of highly developed societies, that could in time rival them. In which our own character comes into play, you are the one that can and will fight them off, but at what cost, that is a question that i have had during the elaboration of this theory. This in return, came into a game of survival for us, as well as for them. An experiment of an unimaginable scale for them to gather data on our own life methods and intellect, in order to understand human sheer will to evolve and survive. If you want your own freedom, fight or befriend the creatures. Challenge the ultimate life forms and defeat the guardian the one who protects everything and grants a place where death and extinction is meaningless. In return they would not allow any human life to die by any means, but rather, clones of these humans prior to death would come back by various means. Either waking up in a bed after a "nightmare", or waking up again randomly in their own Ark, with a vague recollection of memories of what happened to them. This is a contrast to the creatures in Ark, where they simply maintain the population by adding more of them due to the aggressive and unbalanced environmental aspect of the Arks, that one of the dossiers reveals. Hope you enjoyed it. I have always thought this to be true, however this in the end is open to interpretation. So you shouldn't take it so personally or hating it, there's no point really. This in the end is a game, and it is supposed to be a game with entertainment value, nothing more. and dam if it isn't a good one, my favorite of all times.

Came up with the same idea that humans are also extinct. It is called ARK after all but instead of saving animals it's containing extinct ones. And having seen the ending your idea can fit into it since the answers supplied were pretty mediocre at best. They didn't really answer much.

I don't think anyone will have the right answer besides the developers themselves. No spoilers please I do want to see for myself the ending to elaborate more my own theory.

Wazzamaniac Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 I believe these "aliens" are in fact humans, that have ascended in the future. In the showcase hallway, you can see a planet hologram: it appears to be lacking a very large amount of water, but it is clearly planet earth. That is my hypothesis for the time period. I do not think it is Scorched earth because it shows planet Earth, where rock elementals and wyverns do not exist. Consistent with the rest of the hall, where you could see dinos across from a hologram of an ancient supercontinent and later on homo sapiens across modern earth, across the hall where this new alternate Earth is displayed is shown a ghostly figure, as well as an image of its DNA strand: this I can hardly describe as dna: the quad helix kind of gives it away, but you can definitely notice that the figure is humanoid. I think this is the future, ascended human race, making more of it's kind.
