Varanus8 Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Classic difficulty: Set the difficulty back to 1.0 (or 0.2 I forget if they changed 5.0 to 1.0 on realese) Max wild Dino level at 30, no quality items or blueprints, no turrets and ORP enabled. The point is to make a more classic ark experience before the wild Dino level was increased and quality items were added. Creatures would be fast to tame and weapons easy to craft so everything is expendable and everything can be replaced at ease. Turrets and plant x would be very overpowered with low level creatures so they should just be removed entirely, the lack of automated defences would make a much different and fresh pvp meta but ORP should be enabled because there are no turrets to defend a base while players are offline. hopefully these settings would make a much more casual and constant pvp environment where everyone is on a somewhat equal footing and their is no stress in pvp, even if you lose everything it would only take a few hours work to tame and build what was lost so it's all just for the fun of it. note: as a quality of life thing tamed creature weight and stamina should be increased from the norm because moving around and farming with such low level creatures would be painful when they can't carry you with basic gear and have to stop for stamina every five seconds.

Freckletone Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Mutated wild animals PVE Servers, where there is a10% chance of ANIMALS spawning with different COLORS I think a lot of people loved the events where they could tame COLORFUL DINOS. I wish it would be always that there are a % chance of catching colored dinos. It’s kinda a solution for people who loves the colored Dino’s but have no time for breeding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waes Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 You should start server where you cant LEVELING UP SPEED for any creature (even human) current stats makes game unplayable (fix it, u will see the population of that servers, i hear that idea so much times, now you can do that) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RowletAlex Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Dodos of Doom: All dodos on the server become incredibly powerful, and tamed dodos instantly go feral. They become able to fly, can move incredibly fast, and spawn in enormous numbers at night. They become aggressive and can destroy all structures, so tribes big and small will have to fight for their lives against the pigeons from hell.

RowletAlex Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Reaper Rampage: On Aberration servers (and possibly other maps as well) Subterranean Reaper Kongs and Nameless spawn every night in high numbers, hunting for prey. Reaper queens will rarely spawn, as well. The reapers will all despawn on sunrise, so if you want to fight the reapers make sure you’re able to finish quickly. To help players survive this, all bulbpets will spawn in every zone (so one could get all 4 from the fertile zone) If that’s too complicated just take out the day/night cycle thing and make the reapers a constant threat. Would be fun to see on Island and Scorched servers as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkCloud Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Not really themed, but a good idea for how seasons could work. Small tribes Max(10) 1 Ally allowed or none Seasons that last 2-3 months(or 1 per real season Winter/Fall/Spring/Summer) Increased resources/tame speed/raising dinos Cluster with each map type, maybe 2 of each. Limit max players/tribes per cluster? Like sign up as a tribeor whatever and you only allow X number of tribes, tribes locked Can throw in a seasonal change like, during Winter season its always cold and cold biome dinos spawn with higher chance at good stats. Modify alpha bosses to be able to be beat with 5 people, and Alpha Tek cave to be beatable with 5 people(right now it takes 20). Cheap BPs or a way to reduce cost? Especially on Island poly is hard, and with shorter time/less people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildWyvern Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Boss Invasion: Simple. Just make it to where a random boss, or multiple, or all of them, spawn and try to destroy bases. Always thought this game needed a mode as to where the whole server had to band together to fight a common foe. Many can show off their battle prowess, and their prized dinos. Make it difficult, with good rewards for killing it. Skins maybe? Tools, gear, something. Seasonal: Make there be seasons, Spring, Summer, Fall, & Winter. Spring and fall may be easier times, whilst Summer is hotter, and makes dinos more ornery and hard to deal with, whether it be wild or tamed. Maybe it takes more resources to tame, or they become more aggressive. Winter, possibly make them rarer. Make it a lot harder to find dinos, not like empty the server, but reduce all the spawns. Carnivores may become more aggressive due to herbivore shortages. The Environment changes, too. Maybe in winter, the lakes and swamps freeze, or summer, in the south, its super hot, and you have to move more north. Just thoughts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryuk Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 RED vs BLUE TRIBE WARFARE There could be a wall between two parts of the map which stops the teams from fighting early game. The players build up, tame and craft as fast as they can (very boosted rates) and then after the timer reaches 0 the wall separating both teams collapses. Then the two teams fight to the death until 1 team has completely wiped out the other team. Certain things shouldn't be allowed though, such as Plant Y as they are often spammed in pvp. All engrams unlocked Fast paced PVP Losing doesn't feel punishing Little time investment needed Anyone can play PVP in a controlled environment No super dinos running around Less reason for people to cheat (as nothing they have matters) Short but fun games No more grind Every game could play out differently Hows that sound?

Volunteer Moderator Captnmorgan Posted May 3, 2018 Volunteer Moderator Share Posted May 3, 2018 It would be nice to have servers that wipe every 4-6 months to keep things fresh. Gather rates 3x. No tech. Tribe limits 10 max. No alliances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgio77 Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 I think a small tribe server (2-4 people tribes) would be great. Increased taming, harvesting, and breeding speeds would be a big plus and offline raid protection. I have been part of a 2 person tribe for 2 years and we are able to keep up with large tribes, but cant surpass and are often raided by tribes with a lot more people then ours.

AwesomeOne Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 I'm not sure if you'd be able to implement something like this but i've been having a lot of fun on the Arkpocalypse servers and enjoy the fresh start each month, that being said it's always hard to find people to play with and the servers are usually dominated by the same large groups of people that play together. Would be nice to have a game mode where you're assigned a into a tribe or faction at the start. So say there are three factions available to choose from, red, green, blue and you setup spawn points at those obelisks for the faction members to start at and these spawn areas would be control zones. Each faction would have the chance to fortify the area and control the zone / obelisk and associated spawn area. Enemy factions could attack and gain control of the obelisk and spawn areas, forcing the existing faction to try to battle to regain control or be forced to spawn at outlaying areas or move on to the other maps in order to survive for the rest of the wipe. It's kind of a rough idea but anything that would help to make the game a little bit more competitive in terms of the battle of numbers that we currently have would be great...

Chewytowel Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 Fight Club Server (Don't have a good name atm sorry) 5-10 Man Tribes max No Alliances Greatly boosted Harvesting/XP SoTF settings for taming, engrams, and combat Heavily buffed drops like in SOTF Wipes weekly Based on Ragnarok/Abberation Breeding/Raising greatly boosted Sole surviving tribe gets Achievement at end of every week + unique skins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkinoss Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 - Tek only server (with enough resources for crafting the stuff). - Bring Back Battle Royale mode (PLEASE, included in the main game launcher so people will notice more and play it. Battle Royales are popular right now and you pulled back yours). - All dinos are aggresive (even smaller passive ones) - No dino saddles (so you can mount horses, wolves, Moschops, and pretty much thats it) - No ammo required for weapons - Unlimited character inventory weight - Permanent Nighttime The Island server with pvp gamma. - Rex only server, (no other dino to tame, but rex kibble came in lootcrates). - SuperPrimitive server, (limited to thatch structures only, it's pretty much you and your dinos) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like the aidea of 2 factions for a monthly wipe server, and I really would like "short" game modes like an hour or less. The two things together would be great if wildcard can use the matchmaking system from SOTF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RasFW Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 Cave fortress server. Cave bonus damage disabled. No movement speed server - for anything. No outrunning dinos you really shouldn't be able to outrun. Underwater warfare servers. Oxygen drain rate reduced to near 0. Jellyfish spawns replaced by manta. Nomad server. No foundation engrams. No cliff or tree platforms. If it were possible, might be fun to see a server with x10 structure damage resistance on everything that isn't a doorway (gates, doors, windows, etc).

Raven1995 Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 Solo, no tribes Limited Tribe Members/No alliances This two mode is very good for casual players and many solo players can fight with honor head to head , but mod "Limited Tribe Members/No alliances" it should be with max 2/3 members on tribe. Better will be when you made some new servers with on this modes for test like "no taming" before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vengecide Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 On 4/30/2018 at 6:14 PM, Jen said: Speciality servers are alternate game modes for ARK that last for a short period of time. Each new theme will bring on a new set of challenges different from that of servers currently available. However, these seasonal servers will wipe and change theme after a determined period of time. We're looking for input from you Survivors today. We've set up a thread and we'd appreciate if you could drop your suggestions into the separate thread below. Changes will revolve around edits that can be made to the existing config which means modifying ini and server settings. These types of changes can include many things like: tribe/alliance size, anything related to dino stats and taming, server rates, etc. This does not include things like mods. Some examples can include: Solo, no tribes Mammals only No carnivores Small Dinos only Limited Tribe Members/No alliances This a great idea. I think you should make the servers similar to official and extinction. Make it quartley wipes every 3 months cause i liked the idea from the extinction servers but i thought 1 month was to short because people still need time to to recruit people to. And i think most importantly is to stay away from ridiculous things like being able to run 1000 miles an hour cause then nobody can shoot nobody or do nothing. I think for these server you shouldnt be able to have mega tribes, 5 to 10 people is more than enough. But the themes are great maybe one theme is regular ark with boosted drops. Then maybe a theme with no gigas or wyverns. There is many different themes to come up with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
