Midnight_ Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 @GP I see now. Your original wording just threw me through a loop. "You have to zipline to higher ground" was misleading. Nothing to do with box thinking of any kind. Thanks for explaining what you really meant. At the risk of encouraging the original poster to make a new thread "Zip-lines are way too OP".....why can't you zip-line upward? Like a powered zip-line, much like we have elevators. Just an idea..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CobraD Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 This is great and all but is anyone gonna talk about how OP this glow sticks are? You can just drop it and it lights up an area?!

Mighty Caboose3 Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 From looking at all the videos showcasing the Wing Suit it is pretty clear this thing is less like a glider and more like a plane/flyer. It hardly loses any altitude as its going forward which means there will be really very little functional difference between using that and a flyer from regular ARK. I sincerely hope the amount of altitude you drop from using it is much higher then shown in the videos, otherwise you will end up with the same problem you have in ARK where everyone moves on flyers unless they are farming. Aberration seems to be an attempt by the ARK devs to end the flyer domination mode that ARK has sadly become but in order to succeed you need to give ground dinos/players viable options not to travel around in a wingsuit and so far I've seen none. There will be little point to the grapple hook and zipline if this thing stays the way it is.First of all, the wing suit was loosing altitude and second, it's still being worked on, and that is one of the best things coming in aberration.

Living in darkness most of the time on that map and one of the sources of light given to you, you are going to consider OP? Excuse me, but I like being able to see.

Midnight_ Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 We have the motorized zip-line attachment. How a bout a short "rocket" boost for the wing suit. Help it get a bit of height before gliding. I was thinking along the lines of like a behemoth gate height maybe. I wanna validate the OP . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DESTROYER Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 I will put ground vs air travel into perspective. if you were living in a jungle and you decided to live in a alcove where you had access to fresh water and safety but you needed to travel around a large ravine between were you live and where you hunt rabbits and pigs would you. Option 1, travel around the ravine each and every time you needed food somewhere the you could have traveled hundreds maybe thousands of times. or Option 2, build a bridge to cross the ravine save 5 hours on your hunts and use all that time saved to improve your situation. Personally i would pick the more convenient option, the option that gives me more time for more pressing matters. now i know ark is just a game but i fail to see why people willingly take the scenic route and complain when air travel is just better, its like if i chose to use a butter knife to carve a chicken then complained when people use a butchers knife because its just better for the job.

You can charge your armor there, though if memory serves me right tek armors and saddles are drained of element when transferred between servers.
