additionally you dont have to have tons of dinos sitting out. breed it and put it back in a pod, or only breed one strain of something at a time. they cant breed again until the timer is up anyway. or breed more strategically and selectively.

I've made my racks to make breeding easier for me. Females already in place that never need changing out. Just put the male on mating and collect eggs/wait on gestation. It would take a huge amount of time to cryo everything out and back up. Which can be time used for farming.

it takes time yes but it would also stop of unnecessary things from happening. an example of this would be the people who pull out roll rats and just set them to breed continuously to kill servers? another instance when it comes in handy would be it should theoretically lessen the lag when an event happens. less creatures out breeding at the same time means the event runs more smoothly. it makes people pick and choose what their goals are and then work to achieve those goals not just mass quantity for the sake of cutting corners.

updated, I go in and pick up a stone and my surprise is that it is x2, so where is the x4, I do not understand where the x4 is hahaha

I would have to have 4 rocks in my inventory and I only have 2, the official server

Please also put back the 2x in breading, almost 12 real life days for a giganoto and almost 8 days for a yutyrannus is way too much, at 2x it was fine. Thanks.

Yeah, I read the update too quickly as well. It has since been pointed out that this change will happen in the next MAJOR update, which apparently isn't this one...

[JJacky 22]

Increasing rates means nothing if breeding stays the same. I quit playing official because breeding just about anything is a ridiculous joke. Watching dinos mature for days and filling their feeding troughs because they starve so easily is the least fun part of this game.

Rate increases are scheduled for the next MAJOR version patch, this was a MINOR version patch.

So when you see the patch go from 312.xx to 313.xx that is the major version change.

Why can dinos no longer consume lesser antidote? It isn't in the patch notes or in the post here. Was this intentional or accidental?

[Gkar 1]

4% per imprint on Tuso with new decreased raising time? Need 25x imprints. to get 100% needs 8.3 days but if it is now same as yutty it's only 7days 22hrs max. was this intended? Babies hatched and podded after hatching, before patch.

When will the new rates be live on the server ?  2020 2021 ? With TLC 3 ? Want to start with some friends at that time. thx

Could you ever make a sponsered mod come to ark again similair to the Primitive+ mode, I think it was great especially if you wanted to rely on dinos instead of tek, Theres a lot of mods people make that are amazing. I think you could easily add some of the small ones in and I hope you see this. Also can't wait for this TLC update.

With the next major update, but there's no indication of when that is yet, but it will be 2020 of course.

@Jatheish @StudioWildcard  But...what about the lag? It actually causes the game to be hours behind compared to real time. Don't believe me? Check the decay timers, set an alarm, and you'll see the difference. You lose roughly 2 hours per day. I attribute this to the insane lag that has never, and probably will never, be fixed because wildcard is more interested in profit than quality.

I'm passionate about work as a whole, but I won't shut up when I see something wrong, you can explain it to me in a professional way because 504 is always the last server to come back online. The server is online but no one can enter, this is a constant. You can hate the South American people, but I help to pay your salary, be professional stop giving loss in the rank of the server and treat it with respect.

I have a problem with my ark survival evolved game on the ps4. My engines  and skills keeps getting reset when I go back into my single player game. It's been going on sense the summer Bash came out. I was hoping that this update would fix it but it didn't. Hopefully it'll get fixed sooner than later

back in my day, it took us two weeks to build a wooden 4x4

[sluggo5 4]

The dunk's weight reduction doesn't even work on official. i've tried everything to get it to work. no reduction on stone, crystal, metal or obsidian.

 

[gulbisdainis 8]

I have question...

In story ARKs list, why Genesis part 1 is not last but second?

[Roseyagami 0]

They did not fix the problem with the information of the cryopods in Spanish language, please give it a solution

[Bringerovstormz 9]

So when do we get this so called Balance QoL update?? I mean I got a 5gb update that did absolutely nothing, except make the game run worse.

I sure know that feeling, I run a ps4 prim+ server and I currently have that stupid ass glitch where I'm standing on or through the dinos. My last resort it to uninstall and then reinstall, to be quite honest that's a pain in the ass I really don't wanna deal with. But I guess that glitch isn't worth taking care of or fixing so I'm goin to have to just not tame anything. Which defeats purpose of the game in all honesty.

Dunkleosteus
 - Reduced weight of Obsidian in inventory by approximately 75%
 - Reduced weight of metal, stone, crystal, and black pearls by approximately 50%
 - Increased swim speed by approximately 20%

So when is this supposed to take effect? 
It certainly felt like the movement speed was boosted. If I'm not imagining it. But the weight reduction is not applied at all to my X-Dunk

Look, im solo, i managed to get get all kinds of top lines through raiding and the only problem was the maturation times. Being solo i cant maintain a crazy base, so i have to find hiding spot for a few hrs to raise dinosaurs, many babys get killed by raiders, but some make it. And then I finally get giga babys and that maturation time made me totally quit the game. If you please bring back 2x maturation i would love this game so much. Honestly x3 or 4 would be bettet but x2 is nessasary
