Administrator Jatheish Posted September 12, 2016 Administrator Share Posted September 12, 2016 Patch 247 brought cuteness and beauty today to ARK: Survival Evolved with the addition of two new dinos, Tapejara and Archaeopteryx. Both are small, beautiful flying creatures, the latter resembling the modern bird more than any other dinosaur on the ARK. The Archaeopteryx is a small bird-like forest-dweller that glides between trees, harvesting their sap as well as consuming small insects. The Archaeopteryx is a small bird-like forest-dweller that glides between trees, harvesting their sap as well as consuming small insects. When Tamed, it can be used to collect sap, or held overhead for players to “glide” over long distances! The Tapejara is a mid-size pterosaur whose large head-fin gives it superior maneuverability. Not only can it ‘strafe’ while in the air, it can only cling onto walls, allowing its rider and up to two additional seated passengers to shoot their weapons! Update v247 also includes Night Vision Goggles for stealthy raids, and a bevy of performance optimizations and gameplay fixes. As well as major updates to The Center Map! The Center fantasy map expanded today to now include 13 new mini caves, new explorable area near the “Edge of the World,” more spawns, loads of fixes, re-work of the weather system, and more!

SasquatchJ07 Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 i think the tapejara would be perfect for scorched earth to cling on those canyon walls! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VerboseVagrant Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 And here we are on XBox... Still no Titanosaur, no Pelagornis, no Redwood expansion... And the levels have been nerfed for The Center :'( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SasquatchJ07 Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 is it actually out or is the trailer for it just out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaneBlackwing Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 Interesting that the Tapejara can only cling onto walls and can't actually land. That makes it a must have flying mount for those who have Redwoods bases, easy, easy storage there. So I assume that we'll be taming Archaeopteryx with tree sap then, eh? Might even take chitin considering it eats insect matter, but pretty sure tree sap will be it's favored food. Nice and cheap alternative to the tree sap tap though. Can't wait for them to come to Xbox soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoRpSe916 Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 (edited) I'm assuming if they are releasing a preview it will be out later today. It would be dumb on their part to push back the ETA 1 more day (from yesterday). Pushing it 1 more day would most likely mean they found all the big problems and they wouldn't expect any other complications. All I know is ima raise hell if come Tuesday, Xbox passes us in terms of updates... Tighten security WildCard, I'm dressing up as a T-Rex and coming down there (I live 25 mins from your HQ) Edited September 12, 2016 by CoRpSe916 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolf Angelus Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 I have to say this x3 Based on that last image: When is the advertised "Ark of Duty: Black Ops 4" releasing and can we expect stable dedicated servers with working matchmaking ? I thought this was funny =w= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadpool00012 Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 stealthy raids.. I wish. Seems like Night visions goggles won't have much use but now they need a one use weapon thats very expensive that can take out a metal door. Now then you have stealth raids.

Unless you mean the Redwood expansion for the Center, then that is coming mid-September according to to the creator of the map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaprodonychus Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 It would be cool if it could cling onto the side of titanosaurs and brontos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qbddbq Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 Tapejara looks beautiful, I hope that it wasn't sprinting in the vid, otherwise another slow flier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
