Natcrombie Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 I’m going to download one of these dlcs for Xbox and just wondering if anyone had an option on which one I should get and why Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wazzamaniac Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Aberration, simply because you can get all scorched earth content minus the phoenix from ragnarok, which is free. Aberration has its own unique stuff, however is harder to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LouSpowells Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Basically what Wazz said. Scorched Earth is fun, but I've gotten a lot more enjoyment out of Aberration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RipRavage Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 While I agree with everybody else about getting the scorched earth dinos for free with Ragnorok, I still think the actual scorched earth map is the best designed map WC has made. Scorched Earth has a smaller imprinting kibble list making breeding easier in my opinion. The scorched earth dungeons are much easier, yet still fun. I think scorched Earth is a fun map to play and it is not nearly as frustrating as Aberration, which is frustratingly hard to start on. Wyverns are much easier to get than Rock drakes and Scorched Earth doesn't have any ravagers that just bleed spam you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DJRone89 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Just get the season pass and play both. Scorched Earth is a really fun map, I just felt Aberration had a little more depth in content. Both have a hard survival early game learning curve though. These extra mechanics really bred some life into the game and certainly increased my enjoyment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least you dont get killed during the spawning animation anymore, makes it easier to actually start out on both these maps now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking about doing this but at the moment I can’t afford the season pass which is really sucky but I’m over it if you are haha 6 hours ago, Wazzamaniac said: Aberration, simply because you can get all scorched earth content minus the phoenix from ragnarok, which is free.

See this was my thought last night when I was looking at both I’m currently playing ragnarok so there’s no point in me getting SE if I’m wanting a change and something fresh I think I’m going to have to invest in aberration thanks for all your inputs yous have made my decision easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sphere Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Aberration, hand down, mic drop, walk away with cash and prizes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannoli Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Aberation is very punishing. If you are more of a casual player you should go with SE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoughBoy93 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Ragnarok lags harder then any other map I have noticed though it's definitely not my internet as I don't have problems with any other map. This stops me enjoying the map because the lag spikes and rubberbanding really get on my nerves. Both are fun maps I would get the season pass to be honest as it's not much more then buying a single map ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scorched on the other hand is the map with the best performance, by far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gogohorse Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Do abberation, SE is still my favorite map but abberation will have (hopefully) less of a player threat because there’s no transferring in. You still should get SE some time, most enjoyable map for me. Or you can just save your money and get extinction when it comes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lickimus Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 I prefer Scorched most. some things may be hard in Abberation but to easy find and tame high lvl dinos there.. And Abb is super laggy for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banggugyangu Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 See.... I consider aberration's difficulty to be less than scorched earth. It's a situation where, sure, the dinos are trying to kill you a bit more, but the map itself is much less dangerous. Earthquakes are an annoyance, and radiation is just end-game content. On scorched earth, though, until you have a decent structure, the elements are quite literally deadly. My aberration primary character has 0 fortitude levels, because it's simply not necessary. My base stays a comfortable 68 deg F all day long. (I'm just outside the rad zone on the crystalline lake.) On scorched earth, fortitude is almost a necessity, especially early on. Once you learn how to handle all the dino threats properly on aberration, they're quite trivial, but getting caught out in a dust storm on scorched can get you and w/e dino you're on killed pretty easily.
