Jen Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Hey Survivors! Welcome to the latest edition of the Community Crunch! Extinction Chronicles III! Tomorrow there will be a client and server side update that will bring Extinction Chronicles III to survivors on PC, Xbox, and PS4! Leading up to the release of Extinction there will be monthly drops of Extinction-related Explorer Notes on The Island, Scorched Earth, and Aberration. Once collected these notes will unlock new Extinction-related skins! There will also be the appearance of more powerful Tek-themed Dinosaur variants within the ARKs each month. These Tek Dinos are permanent additions (meaning they will continue to spawn even after the event is over), with a new one beginning to appear each month. In Extinction Chronicles I we released three Explorer Notes, the Corrupted Helmet and the Tek Rex. In Extinction Chronicles II we released three Explorer Notes, the Corrupted Boots and the Tek Stego. And now, tomorrow we're excited to bring you three new Explorer Notes, the Corrupted Pants and a new Tek creature, the Tek Raptor! In addition, special colored dinos will be populating the ARKs. You'll be able to find creatures sporting red, black, white, and grey for the next month beginning tomorrow. Be sure to take advantage of these special colors before they're extinct! Patch Notes! Here are the full fixes and notes coming in tomorrows Extinction Chronicles III update (PC). Quote Extinction Chronicles III: - Added Tek Raptor (5% spawn chance) - Added new color set (red, black, white, grey) - Added 3 new Explorer Notes and matching unlock (Corrupted Pants) - Increased maximum player level by 1 Connectivity: - Added time out to clients who aren't responding Aberration Balance: - Increased Plant-Z range by 300% - Enabled Tek Teleporter on Aberration Scorched Balance: - Crop plots can now be grown where you'd expect (no more sunlight issues) You can read the console-specific notes in their respective patch notes thread below: Community Livestream #6 This Thursday!

TomaBasarab Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Teleporters are 100% going to ruin Aberration on pvp servers. Be impossible to hold bases when they can build in almost unraidable locations and just teleport to a forward FOB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basso Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Please no teleporters on aberration.... That ruins aberration for pvp servers..... For real... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VJ1989 Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 So are you not altering the life span of consumables on scorched earth? i dont see anything about it. at the moment the only thing tolerable to raise on scorched earth is wyverns, since meat spoils so fast.

deadpool560 Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Question, where it says you will add the Tek Raptor. it does not mention it will have a 20% higher base level. Why is that? As the Tek Stego and Rex have the 20% higher base level so why does the raptor not have it?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another question for you and i assume it was an error most likely when they wrote it. the increased level cap the dinos and player got is 1 per chronicles. Now in these notes it says that the players will get 1 extra level and not the dino. Do you think that was an error or will it be players can go that extra level and not dinos?

With broken spots as big as carno underneath the world border ceiling on abb you will never be abled to push enemys of the server because these spots are only accessable by rock drake / climbing pick —> place main fob up there along with a tp and you cant get soaked ! Same goes for bases up there that are unraidable and are propably never gonna be found ! WC not thinking about the pvp part of the game again?? ?

darcek Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Quote Be sure to take advantage of these special colors before they're extinct! So on one hand you're encouraging people to go tame new dinos just for cosmetic purposes on the other you don't resolve Server Cap limit issue. Lame. sooo lame. I play on SP so don't have again that hassle, but it's no rose garden much more fun playing with others on officials, but broken game and no help in sight. So staying on my SP Island all by my lonesome... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
