What do you think about some type of climbing hook that can be used to climb up vertical walls, kind of like how the megalania is gonna be able to but you have it on your person, and it's around level 50 or something, so it can be more useful than the grappling hook sometimes because you are gonna be able to use it multiple times and climbing cliff faces can be a little difficult with grappling hook so this could just climb the entire way but it's a bit slower.

Will there be a single player/non-dedicated mode where it is not possible to change the server settings or use admin codes? The game settings could be locked in with the dedicated servers. It would be a good way for non-dedicated players to earn achievements and in-game rewards (I play on Xbox).

Thanks

Nice idea! However the server should run when you aren't on since resources won't grow back for a while and egg hatching.

Could we get a feature that allows survivors to get the attention of dinosaurs with noise? Basically, something like a yell that can turn the attention to you. Maybe even being able to use the spyglass to focus on a specific creature. This could also be used for distractions, one person distracting a dino while another attacks it, or even if something is in the way of what you're trying to get to.

In the PC Version 245.0, we see that the center is getting a whole lot of new content that goes far beyond just the redwood biome. Features that are exclusive to the Center Map such as clouds, underwater canyons, ocean expansions, map expansions, lightning updates, etc.

Are there any plans in the works to give the Island Map this kind of overhaul?

New to the game and probably answered, but is there a way to leave a tribe and keep crafted items (boat and seperate structures)?

Hi Silent3ch0: That is totally dependent on the Tribe governance.  Structures have to be set to Personally owned, just like dinos in order for you to be able to have them if you leave the tribe.  Most established tribes won't have it set this way because that would mean if 2 tribesfolk built a wall together, and one left, only part of the wall would still belong to the tribe, thus causing build radius issues and other things.  Since you are new, if you have made your own tribe and are wanting to join another there is a very very handy merge option now.  when the other person invites you to their tribe you have the option to merge, thus taking all the structures and dinos with you.  This ONLY is available if you are the tribe owner.

We currently only have tranq/stone/metal arrows, but would it be possible to use leeches to make poison arrows? Or perhaps being able to set arrow tips on fire in order to cause some kind of damage over time? Possibly even exploding arrow tips? Also, we have a compound bow in the game currently but no step up from a crossbow; are we going to see a more advanced crossbow in the future?

I recently took to building a water pen for water dinos and was using scuba gear.  One of the most annoying things I found was that there is no way for you to know what your o2 level remaining is on the tank without going into your inventory.  Could there be some kind of bar, maybe under the tank icon that would basically show the durability of the scuba tank that way we can see as we are going around if it is close to out?  Also are there any plans to have gloves to fill the hand slot so we can increase our hypo a little more?

Thanks!

With the introduction of the Allosaurus and the pack leader mechanic, are you planning to add a herd/pack mechanic to the creatures, so they travel together across the Ark.  Seeing a herd of Brontos or Parasaurs migrating would be amazing, or a school of fish in the ocean.  Of course solitary creatures would stay solitary.

Can we have map coordinates added to the death messages for when a tribe dino is killed?

On our server we have about 10 bases with dinos in them.  When I get a death notification it is really hard to know which base is under attack.  Coordinates would be super helpful.  Having it show up for players would also be helpful, but I don't care as much when they die
