The ocean is about to get a new denizen. Deep beneath the waves, a powerful force stirs, ready to protect its allies and defeat its foes. With armor as strong as its resolve, this creature brings both brute strength and unexpected utility to the ARK.

Dive into the depths with the Archelon—a mighty, shell-armored guardian of the ocean that’s part tank, part underwater farm, and pure powerhouse! This ancient Cnidaria-slayer is primed for battle, gaining fierce strength and durability with each jellyfish defeated. But its power doesn't stop there; tame an Archelon, and it becomes your personal algae farm, providing rich taming food for herbivores and an underwater breathing zone for you and your allies. With room to carry four passengers and a knack for turning the tides against ocean threats, the Archelon is the ultimate undersea ally for those ready to rule the waves! 

Get ready, survivors! The versatile Archelon from ARK: Additions is officially coming to ARK: Survival Ascended on October 16th. While we may make a few tweaks to its design, this hard-shelled tank is set to shake up your gameplay experience!

Keep up with the development of ARK: Additions in Garuga's Discord!

Inactive Server Sunsetting Update.png

 

As a reminder, we will start of sunsetting some of our inactive official servers after a careful assessment. Our goal is to ensure that we're always delivering the best experience possible, and official servers exist as a way for the community to play together without having to host their own. When we launch fresh content, typically, we put up more servers than we need in the long term to match the peak in user capacity; over time, these servers become ghost towns as players have dropped off and are waiting for the next major content release.

On October 15th, we'll be sunsetting these inactive Island servers:

We’re working with our partner at Nitrado to offer these saves after the scheduled sunset through Nitrado’s interface. Please stay tuned for more details.

 

Expire Servers Reminder.png  

Expire Servers.jpg

On April 8th, we deployed a new type of server across the network (for the various game types) that we refer to as "Expire" (which is what you can search for in the session filter). 

These servers will be online until 10 am PST / 1 pm EST on November 15th. We're preemptively using our allocation for Extinction to host some additional sessions that players can travel onto to farm, tame, and experience Aberration Gameplay. The same transfer restrictions apply in that you are only able to download your character, but you can freely take anything off. This is to help reduce load off some of the other servers, or provide players an option for those who just want to jump onto Aberration temporarily.

Please note that these servers will no longer exist after 10 am PST / 1 pm EST on November 15th, so if you intend to use them, remember to transfer your items/creatures/characters off before that date, as nothing will be saved beyond that time period.

The Archelon is one of my favorte Ark Additions dinos, so this is good... well not news, because it had leaked a couple of weeks ago, but good thing nonetheless. does it look toothier here, or is it just the artwork that gives that impression ?

Quote

tame an Archelon, and it becomes your personal algae farm, providing rich taming food for herbivores

WAIT, REALLY ?! You're finally adding algae as a resource ? Did I read that right ? I've always thought the underwater needed its own unique resource (especially with pearls being more and more available on land as new maps appeared), so this is making me very happy.
The wiki seems to suggest that they're a component of the sushi you were alluding to last week ? I love this. More resources and recipes is always a good time for me as a PvE and SP player (and not the crap like green gems and fragmented green gems being the same thing under a different name, but ACTUALLY new resources).

Reveals of upcoming game content, such as ARK Extinction and Bob's Tall Tales Part 3

Am I reading too much into that "such as" ? Maybe. Maybe not. We'll see next month.

Has there ever been a development studio so committed to pressing on with new content whilst ignoring the state of their game? 

And if they don't, people complain that nothing is going on, the game is stale, ARK is dead, and at least ASE had such and such map so why bother with ASA ? so it's a no-win situation.

You guys need to do something about the terrible performance the game has. Make a way to disable nanite for the foliage because its straight up killing the game for many people. Its a joke how even high end modern hardware needs to rely on upscalers and TAA in order to make the game even playable at a reasonable quality and performance, and older hardware that used to run ASE with no issues whatsoever can only dream of getting 30 fps at 1080p rendering at a 40% resolution scale and having 2 seconds of TAA ghosting. People are waiting for FSR to come and save the day for everyone yet they fail to realize that its only a bandage patch for the terrible performance that's hiding underneath.

Where is Ragnarok? Its by far the mod map people liked the best in ASE and we still have no news about it. I'm glad extinction is coming back, but at this point I feel like people are just waiting for ASA to become what ASE used to be up until Genesis release which ruined the PvP aspect of the game. I hope you revert the cryopod nerfs with Ext release, because as of right now people are using them the exact way as they did in ASE but with the extra annoyance of having to take a cryopod and a generator to every single map you transfer to.

That's my rant. For the love of god, fix the performance. I couldn't care less about how good the game looks if I have to play it at 40% resolution scale at 720p with the extreme input lag that all the upscaling and TAA adds, and I feel like most people that play PvP share my same thoughts. I know so many people that are still playing on unofficial ASE servers simply because they cant stand playing at 30 fps on 2024

Any plans to ever address the broken drop beacons on Series S??? They've been broken since Scorched dropped in April and the team have never said a word about it. Series S doesn't have a way to manually adjust the Global Illumination to make them visible. 

6 months is far too long to let this go on without so much as a "we're working on it".

you made an announcement in the section ''UPDATE ON PREMIUM MODS'' of the community crunch 408.

is this happening soon? 

it was announced for this summer but as far as I know it still hasn't come out and you haven't talked about it since

I have my own server and at the moment I cannot add premium mods to my server for fear of losing players.

The Archelon is one of my favorte Ark Additions dinos, so this is good... well not news, because it had leaked a couple of weeks ago, but good thing nonetheless. does it look toothier here, or is it just the artwork that gives that impression ?

To answer the "toothier" part here, the mouth looks like this:

Inside a turtle's mouth : r/natureismetal

The leatherback turtle for example has points on the tomium of its upper lip, with backward spines in its throat (esophagus) to help it swallow food and to stop its prey from escaping once caught.

I meant "toothier" than the previous versions released by Garuga, but thanks for the nightmares XD
God, someone needs a dentist.

@Admins
So no news about Halloween event…😔

Maybe can I give a suggestion for event?

my suggestion is like Xmas event if we are “good” we receive cryo baby Dino if u “bad” u receive a attack by Dino’s…for this Halloween event i suggest something similar but called “trick or treat” so in one u receive cryo baby’s or bps or chibis and on other u got attacked by zombie dodos or ghost/sketal Dino’s. Think should be fun something like that 😊
