There's clearly tek in the trailer, it's right there in the cave. I assume people can do a lot of things with saved materials. According to lore and trailer green ring crashed. It can be full of technology people can develop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just not "tek tier" that you can make yourself. I wonder if that has any connection to this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teribug101 Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 I would like to bring my event color dinos on the new game otherwise it's like the other guy said it's not ark 2 it's a different game completely riding on arks coattail. I spent so much time and effort in this game it would suck and make me hate ark 2 right away if I lose all that I worked for when ark servers shut down. Borderlands and a few other games pulled it off why not ark as well. Take an idea from Pokemon do u think the color Gameboy to ds is harder to transfer between them, vs something with only one number off. I would rather not quit but if I'm gonna lose it all anyway what is the point of collecting the event colors and dinos when they will be gone in less then a year? Wild card would destroy it's old fan base for a gamble at a new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no way anything like creatures will be transferred from ARK 1 to ARK 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teribug101 Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 Then it's not a sequel it's a different game and should be treated like a different game not ark. It looks more like horizon then ark 1 from the info they released Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why bother making a sequel that's exactly the same as ARK 1? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A successful sequel is something that gives something to the old players and new. Not one that focused on the newest income. It's storyline is vaguely connected so it should have something there for the ones who played the first all the way through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurebhsdyrgsg Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 Why would they let anything transfer? Unreal 4 to 5 would be a nightmare and you'd just have every buggy line of code transferred as well. U should want to start a fresh with the unlikelyness of the game being playable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes of course, in terms of gameplay and/or settings. Not in skins or progress. 3 hours ago, Teribug101 said: Not one that focused on the newest income. It is a commercial product and a new product. As much as I have doubted the performance of this company many times, they are entitled to get paid for every new product they made if you want to use it. You are not getting free tires on a Ford Focus because your gramps once owned a T-Ford. 3 hours ago, Teribug101 said: It's storyline is vaguely connected so it should have something there for the ones who played the first all the way through. And that is all they do and need to do to call it ARK 2. It is a new game, not a remaster. Even if it was a remaster, how many games let you transfer your old items and skins to your new game/sequel? If it was a next gen (or current gen by now) PATCH you would have a fair point. Unfortunaly that is not going to happen so we just move on or stay in the game that was including all the glithes as we are used to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostTheKing Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 When ark 2 comes out, I feel like you should be able to transfer characters from ark 1 to ark 2. Levels will still reset, but you should be able to get certain cosmetics for certain achievements. Such as but not limited to explorer nodes, maybe with each index completed you get a cosmetic representing said main storyline character. Boss fights, keep your survivor implant cosmetic, or a similar cosmetic if we still have survivor implants. Ark 1 made it a Likely possibility because at the end of genesis part 2 how all survivors are launched down to the planet, they are apparently copies of all the characters on the ark. I've done played official pvp and I'm currently playing official PVE, as original ark players we have spent a lot of time on the arks, bonus cosmetics would be greatly appreciated especially for everyone who doesn't have the money to pre-order the games but has spent alot of time in game. Maybe even allow us to keep our hair styles if that isn't asking for to much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mangost Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 I think it would be nice for there to be some reward for already owning ark, but not transfers lol (a reward like some special item skin or something) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noa Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Is not an expansion map DLC. Skilling, getting XP, new abilities will be little different, also aiming - so no way for character transfer. Building will be hopefully better with better snap and other options. No need to transfer all old problems in new game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luizza Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Even if Ark2 was a carbon copy of Ark1 just on a new engine I still think nothing at all should transfer from Ark1 - a fresh start, let the old servers die off, there's no way WC can keep running all those official servers forever anyway. There's already plenty of servers with extremely low player counts, graveyards of massive bases being timer reset week after week for years ... I'm really surprised WC isn't doing a rolling shut down of these servers and doing something similar to the legacy system where players get good notice to move and are then able to download a copy of their map after shut off. If they prune the servers down there's far more chance of some core lively Ark1 servers surviving another decade... or 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DodoLFVC Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Agree with majority of posters in this thread. New game, so starting off fresh new and new is how it should be. Transferring cosmetics over that were earned would be pretty neat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SarahMonette Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 I know it's not realistic but this is what I want. I worked to get my dinos and I don't want to loose them. I collected everything myself. I did it all myself. There was no help from anyone. Not tribemates. Not strangers. I bought nothing from anyone. Those are all mine. Their low stats reflect this. I've never cheated or purchased or traded. But I'll never get rewarded for my honesty. Just pat myself on the back and wish I could keep my work forever.

Volunteer Moderator GP Posted September 5, 2022 Volunteer Moderator Share Posted September 5, 2022 If the Devs provide copies of official server saves then you won't lose anything. I'm not sure how you'd expect ARK 1 dino models to fit in with ARK 2 models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmigzz Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 first of all the characters transfer is not wanted because i don't want to level its because i want to carry all of my successes that show up on my implant and achievements even if i need to level a new im good with that.

It has 'Ark' in the title. I don't think Ark 2 is going to be much like Ark at all really other than there are dinos in it. Check out the new TSOTF for reasons why.

Im now playing TSOTF (by the way this name has very bad marketing potential).. and it became classic battle royale like Fortnite or PUBG. Very weak, in my opinion - looks like draft, .. pre, pre, pre alpha version. You mean Ark 2 will not have old good ark modes? Owning dinos, bases, PvE, PvP modes?

GamePlayArk Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 I think its very important to make it possible to travel from Ark 1 to Ark 2 and vice versa with a limitation on what dinos, weapons, and tools you can bring over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
