Sikaflex Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Raptor, actually it wasn't me, it was a friend of mine whose name was "Atlas". We started playing Ark for the first time and I watched the raptor pop-up out of no where and pounce on Atlas and destroy him, then I ran back to base before it was done eating his remains. I had took a screenshot right before it attacked him and captioned it "Raptor 1, Atlas 0". it was freaking hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melcreif Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Titan Boa. Oh man they were the scariest thing ever, and they just wouldn't stop chasing you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyCrescent Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Carno, for me. My ill-prepared band of me, my best friend and an acquaintance on her non-dedicated. We set out merrily down the beach to explore, in the middle of the night...so I never even got much of a look at the assailant that wiped my little tribe out...only the message at the end. We never did get our bags back, either. Fortunately, we were so absolutely unprepared to explore (I learned after about a week in my own non-dedicated) that there were no significant losses incurred. Only a painful lesson learned about exploring with low visibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royalstar Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 I was indirectly killed by a bunch of ants. I’d just got the game, and having tamed a dodo and built a small thatch base, I decided to leave the beaches and explore further inland by myself. And then I got jumped by a swarm of ants. They didn’t kill me, but I fell off a cliff trying to run away from them. My first death directly caused by an animal was due to a raptor. This happened right after being “killed” by the ants; while I was trying to find my body a raptor came outta nowhere and ate me. After this I decided to hold off on the exploration till I was a little more prepared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngrySaltire Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Honestly can't remember. More than likely a raptor or carno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rintrahhh Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 My very first death was by plant turrets. I saw a building with weird waving things on it so I was curious. I started walking towards them and well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

choroni Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 My first death was by a raptor. Ironically, my most recent death was by a raptor as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EternalPhoenix Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Piranha. I was on the island in the starting area and went for an ill-fated swim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JNoble Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Troodons... Stupid Troodons. How could I have known that something that left me alone during the day would become murderous after dark? I still kill every single one I see... on principle. Apparently I hold a grudge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chudz66 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 I actually don’t recall what got me the first time, but here's my earliest recollection. Me: This river isn’t too wide; I’ll just wade across. Piranhas: Nom! Nom! Nom! [I respawn in the same area and manage to find my way back to that river] Me: Hmm, maybe I’ll cross a bit further in that direction. [I wade into the warm current.] Piranha: Nom! Me: Ack! Hurry, hurry, hurry! Piranha: Miss! Nom! Miss! [I make it to the other side.] Me: Ha! Ha! Sucker! I made it. Piranha: *Grumble* [I decide to move along the beach to scout the new area out. And a few minutes later…] Me: Hey, what’s that big dino with . . . tiny horns? Oh, it’s cool looking, and . . . it’s charging! EEP! [I bravely run away and leap into the river in hopes of making it to safety.] Piranhas: Nom! Nom! Nom! Carno: ROFL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jemcrystal Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Can't remember back that far. Started on single player. Then played with a friend on a shared lock others out tethered server. The tether drove us nuts. We drove each other nuts. She went on to do other things. At a guess tho I probably got killed by a bronto picking up wild dino eggs when I first joined multiplayer. I played for months not understanding why the dinos were angry at me all the time and no one else. Thot they just went nuts. Didn't make the mental connection eating their eggs was what was setting them off until much game play had passed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowgirl Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Tomorrow will be my 3 and a half year anniversary of Ark so it has been a while, but I believe a raptor was my first death. My most memorable early death though was a carno that wouldn't lay off me, he kept chasing and chasing I crossed the river twice and he chased me for a good 20 seconds (that is a long time for a lvl like 3 lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruvas78 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 First night that Ark launched on Xbox. There were about 20 of us, naked and running about one of the SW beaches of the Island, not knowing what the hell we were doing. Someone attached a Carbonemys with a stone pick, and I thought it was a good idea to join in. Whups.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigboss84 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 I was semi familiar with the game having watched Angry Joe play it, so I had enough of an idea of what was doing on not to get killed by a compy, or a dilo, or any of those other typical noob munchers, but my first official death scared the crap out of me... i had just gotten done drinking water and was making the longish hike back to my base. It was night so I was trying go slow and cautious. Suddenly I heard this sound “BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM” comeing up on me. I had no idea what it might have been at first thinking maybe it was a Trike, then POOF! Carno came into view lit by the light of my torch in the thick black jungle.. I had no time to react. i was dead pretty much instantly. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WatchMeSuck Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Raptor. This was before the pounce. It took me a while to get them bola'd. Game completely changed when I got my first tapejera. All about the air now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcyanidePancake Posted January 10, 2019 Author Share Posted January 10, 2019 yup his first death was from a giga. funny tho because i have never seen a giga take a moonlit stroll on a spawn beach before... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
