Achievements in ARK Survival Ascended?

[GP]

As we all know there are only 32 achievements for the whole of ARK, this includes the DLCs. Often games add achievements with DLCs but ARK has never gone that way.

So with ARK Survival Ascended releasing later this year, giving an opportunity for the possibility of new achievements being added to the game, including DLC specific ones, what achievements would you like to see added to ASA?

[Pipinghot]

I'd like to see the Achievement:  "WildCard stopped being greedy grifters and instead decided to charge a price that's actually appropriate for this not-really-an-Upgrade".

[GrumpyBear]

This list is going to be a mish mash of whatever clever and not clever come to mind.   

 

• Survive 100 days in-game without dying.   - "You wouldn't have believed me without this achievement"

 

• Killed 100 baby animals    - "Oops, I did it again"
• Killed 1000 baby animals  - "Abortion Clinic"
• Killed 10,000 baby animals. - "Planned Parenthood"
• ...

 

• Tame a wild animal that was tranquilized by another wild animal, such as a Pulmonoscorpius.   -  "My Lucky Day"

 

• Mutate any stat, 5x        - "future farmer of Ark"
• Mutate any stat, 20x      - "Licensed Breeder"
• Mutate any stat, 100x     - "just got Divorced"

 

• Grind 100,000 objects.       - "Junker"
• Grind 1,000,000 objects.    -  "Recycler" 
• ...                                       ? - "Industrial Recycler"

 

• Kill a wild unicorn.         -  "Pure Evil"

 

Aberration specific

• swim in the purple waters at the bottom of the map - "Purple Haze"
• open 100 surface drops                                                - "Daredevil"

 

Its all I can think of at the moment.  I'll have to think about this more.

 

• Take a combined total of 5,000 fall damage  -  "Need a cane"
• Take a combined total of 20,000 fall damage - "non-ambulatory"

Or a stupid ways to die list;

Drown while tranqualized
Drown in shallow water
Die by lava
Get killed by your own Wyvern's breath attack
Jump to your death
Die of starvation
Get killed by a wild Gallimumus (after you pick up an egg)
Die from eating organic polymer

lol, I didn't even think that was a thing.

[Yggdrassil]

"Fish food" - Log in and found you been dragged into the water in PvE

"Arked" - Do everything to the best of your ability but lose everything you have for no fault of your own.

"In the dome" - Get your head popped by 10 aimbotters 

"The fast and the furious giga" - Get chased by a speedhacked giga

 

[GrumpyBear]

Following that brilliant direction with the Gallimus idea..

How about,   lose a max level tame to a meganeura - "Ants in your pants"

 

This happened to me on one of my failed attempts at taming a troodon.  I would have liked a little acknowledgment of it after the fact.

Could be some achievements related to stealing Wyvern/Rock Drake Eggs

Getting impregnated by a Reaper

Defeating Titans

Killing Titanosaur

All new bosses achievements (maybe one achievement per boss on any difficulty)

Achievement for top 10 most tricky tames (all in one achiev.)

Getting killed by passive creature (as was mentioned before Gallimimus, Parasaur, Ptera etc)

Building related (like place x amount of building pieces)

Maybe one for completing all Missions (hopefully alpha ones would get a bit more balanced though xD)

This is just some of my thoughts ☺️

You'll probably give missions as stupid as Gen1, Gen2!  Most players did it on glitches anyway.

Mission 1: Wild Card Communication with players not what so far.

Mission 2: reduce ASE servers to a playable minimum.

Mission 3: Wild card leaves ASE official servers.

Mission 4: ASE all patches for all bugs.

Mission 5: ASA Planning

Mission 6: ASA Implementation, including ASE remaining until ARK2 release (two game modes retained)

Mission 7: in case of ASE not working (fixes for years of untouched bugs, players have 99% discount on ASA)

Mission 9: Fix what you broke on the maps and critical bugs first.

Mission 10: ask players what they think of your plans before you post like a month ago.

I proposed 10 missions for Wild Card.  Good luck with them While many may disagree, that's not how it was supposed to work.  Not like the bugs that overwhelm you in ASE, know that you are doing map makeup to avoid embarrassing ASE bug fixes.  It's the same island and different DLC that we're supposed to buy again.  For a total of 18 months, ASA will also turn off just like that, because it will recommend the ARK3 project?.  ASC will be nothing more than a retouched graphical ASE Games application.  The introduced modifications are candy for those willing to buy ASA.  But it's the same map and rules (which, as you can see, also want to screw up for now, but there is no one to correct it after them xD).

-ASE TheIsland = ASA TheIsland -ASE = a lot of work to fix something they broke.  ASE optically modified working on the UE5 engine which forces those who want to play to change the hardware plus an additional fee for the same on your part.

As your strategy decreases, I will change your next purchase of the product to another one. Calculate the future $50 ASA + $20 for each subsequent DLC (amounts are oscillating because they can change even higher due to inflation. I may stay alone in this case, but I will not buy  the same as I have, nor will I buy a cat in a poke.

 

All the more I would not like to have OW on the console.  I don't trust this company any more than Wild Card.

I think this might be the wrong direction to come from.  Since overbuilding is an issue already,  we should avoid encouraging it.  Instead make it destroyed  x number of structures instead.
