Human NPCs will revolutionize Ark forever.

[BadAnalogy]

An addition of Human NPCs that’s are both friendly and hostile would breathe so much life into both online Multiplayer and offline Multiplayer

-NPCs could have pre determined small raids on your base while your online you will have a chance to test combat abilities on weaker “people”

-NPCs could have certain “tribes”in which they are essentially variants where they look distinct from each other and have unique combat styles,weapons,and tames

-you could add tribes from the lore thus making lore more relevant 

-Randomly generated small camps,towers,huts, made of various types of arks building structures 

-perhaps a new looting and taming mechanism where you can tame enemy dinos 

-Maybe you can choose to become neutral to some tribes or hostile depending on what a tribe has done to you 

-using pvp weapons will be a lot more appealing if they have pre determined behaviors

-trade?

-quest?

I am not certain if any of the developers read this or if this is only meant for the community to read but Im thinking and taking inspiration from the Minecraft pillagers,and the mutant cannibals from the forest,and the ark trailers themselves,

I would love to see all dinosaur get used if not by real players than with the form of ai riders,so all abilities will be covered

in theory there will no longer be this terrible continuous creature meta,and unused content

That's fine if the mod will get remade in ue5 for ASA, but unless not, this idea would be useful

What does this mean? The meta of the game won't shift because of human AI, they'll get stomped even harder than actual people will.

I have said it before and I will continue to say it. NPCs WILL NOT improve the game. If you want NPCs in your ark go find a mod. Sorry but it's gonna be a hard no from me. Stick around for Ark 2 and you can have all the NPCs you want probably since its supposed to be more story driven?

:') storyline bruhh. Learn the storyline. We are the pc and basically npc. People don't understand the depth of the game. There is nothing on the ark besides us clones. 

 

Now Helena in her journey met other people and tribes. They are suppose to represent us  as players and all the different types of people that play the game. Some people like taming (Mei ling), other waging war (Minerva), other like to dabble in mutations (Rockwell) other like to explore (Helena). They talk about tribes whom have never seen a cave and don't feel the need to even explore the arks to finish it. They just wanna enjoy life.

 

Reason why ark 2 will have npc. Is because we are basically invading another planet with dino's so the storyline allows it.
