Rippy Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Don't be a special snow flake. Just be yourself to begin with, act like you would if you were stranded. Let your character build up slowly and naturally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpicardi1 Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Your looking for others, or for a way to return to civilization. Therefore, try to remain mobile, but don't leave yourself defenseless. Small strong huts for the night in sheltered spots, Get a raft to explore, store your extra supplies, and find safe spots, choose pets that will fit on your raft that are fast or can defend you. A pteradon as soon as you can craft a saddle for long range quick safe exploring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d1nk Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Unfortunately we can't tell you how to so that, it's the beauty of role play.. play as you wish let your imagination run free. Imagine a scenario and stick to it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volunteer Moderator Jerryn Posted April 12, 2016 Volunteer Moderator Share Posted April 12, 2016 The scene: You are a millionare on a 3 hour cruise, with your wife, a movie star, a professor of science, a farm girl, and the captain and his mate. A sudden storm strikes and you find yourself waking up on a strange island. Nake and afraid. Dinosaurs and other animals all around you. You know you need to find your wife and others; it is your only chance. And....actions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Role play that there's no flying mounts , you'll have a different perspective on the island. Or make your own jurassic Park lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NymeriaSaida Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 I agree with all the people suggesting that you avoid using flying mounts, and if you want a really fun challenge, do it with no mounts. Tame creatures to follow you around and provide defense/additional carry weight if you feel you need to, but play the entire game on foot. I find it to be much more of a challenge (and therefore, much more fun) to try and survive with just your wits and what you can carry on your back, without a big angry carnivore to protect you. Mounts are crazy useful for resource gathering and transportation, but at it's heart, ARK is a survival game - not a petting zoo simulator. Get out there and survive.
