Today I took a flight on my Ptera from my base in the Footpaw up the East coast to approx 62-16. On the way I saw a giant red floating tower thing that was ringed by tamed donosaurs, lots of huge bases that contained hundreds of dinos, but best of all, once I was at 62-16 I could see a huge mountain shaped like a volcano in the distance. I decided that an adventure to there would be for another day. I then returned home and went out and tamed my first Raptor. Feeling inspired by my success, I went on a rampage with it - those dodos never stood a chance ? Another fun day in Ark

Today we continued work on the wall. We got all but 1 side finished and that side will be just to keep our dinos from running off the cliff if a stray ichthy or bug makes their way into our base. We then organized the dinos and realized we now have a boatload of room for more dinos so we need to get to taming, lol. I'm still planning on taming atleast 1 of every dino from all 3 maps before extinction comes out After organizing the dinos we did some base organization. Everything has a storage container now. It probably won't stay that way for long, but its good for now, lol. We also built a s+ vault in our barracks area to hold all our armor, weapons, ammo, tributes and taming supplies. We dont really need a vault, but its nice fitting several large storage boxes worth of stuff into one vault. Before logging out this morning we moved our crops to the roof of our base and put clear, frameless s+ glass over them for the green house bonus without taking away from the looks of the base . Had some crops destroyed in our green house on the beach when a trike I was kitting attacked our green house and clipped through the s+ glass wall, so our roof is much safer. Right now we are afk raising some allos. I forgot how much I like breeding allos. Only 2 hrs to grow up with my rates with a precooked egg (love the s+ hatchery) and 1 imprint for 100%. 3 out of the 5 we hatched got mutations so Im looking forward to seeing them all grown up. Tomorrow morning we will hopefully finish the wall. I also noticed a lvl 202 female allo near my allo taming pen so we will probably tame her up. And then tomorrow night we will probably hatch more allos, lol

Finally got the structures together to put in a new platform on the bird tower so I can store some of the wyverns I had hatched up. Then hopped on a Wyvern for a bit of exploration, hit up the red drops in the snow cave and the desert got a few good things. Looked for a high level thylo or bary but no luck there, however I did find a 156 tek stego, so I picked it up and took it back to the taming pen. Knocked it out and tamed it up.

We finished raising our allos last night. We actually only had 2 with mutations, not 3. The bluish color on this one, its actually looks a lot lighter in game Not sure the color mutation on this one or if it got a color on a region it had, but it still looks cool and we tamed this girl this morning Then we spent the rest of our time gathering meat so we can hatch more eggs tonight. We also tamed a low lvl female kentro for kibble. I think we may tame more kentros to breed just because they have cool colors too. Ill probably hatch another 8 or 10 allos tonight, only keeping ones with mutations

Alright so my metal gathering expedition was cut a bit short at the small volcanic island... I died, but as expected my boy Cloud prevented any further death. The part that really cut the trip short is that three of my large storage boxes of metal were destroyed when my group was attacked by T.Rexes, so I needed to spend about 45 minutes transferring the dropped metal to the remaining storage boxes. I then decided that since all my other storage boxes were below half health that I wouldn’t risk losing all this metal so I headed back home. Overall I’d still call this a successful trip. All in all I gathered over twenty five thousand ingots worth of metal: a solid haul, and probably well enough to finish up the body of my base. My next step is to start forging all of this stuff. While the forging is going on I’ll need to go on an enormous cementing paste run. Really wish you could get cementing paste by killing Araneo and such with the frog, but sadly I need to go into the swamp for dragonflies. Anyway after that my next priority will be air conditioners so that I can incubate eggs while I continue construction.

Made a roof on part of my dino pen, and then build a bird cage on top. But holy poop, its difficult to make something that is not a wooden box.. Could have probably build this twice if i did everything right the first time What you see at the ground lvl is the first dino pen i ever made. I learned some things from that

Making tranq arrows for trade. Only 350 more stacks to go...............

Swamp with a frog?? That's the old school way my friend. Have you not heard of Beaver Dams, or are they blocked off on your server? In the Center, you can easily get 10k+ CP from hitting the various Beaver Dams Jungle N/M/S as well as the Swamps and the Floating Island.

PS4 - Private server - Ragnarok Was flying all over the map on my Fire Wyvern "Ghost Pepper" looking for more Tek dinos or event colored dinos. Not having any luck, but doing a but of CP farming at some beaver dams, and just kind of "sight seeing". Then as I was in the southern zone near the Wyvern cove, I see a beautiful blue with purple Sabertooth. IT was a a max level 150, so I scooped it up with the wyvern, and flew over to my outpost in the south islands. I dropped it into the taming pen, and landed my wyvern. But then I start seeing damage numbers and before I can get over to the taming pen I get a death message that dinos had killed the sabertooth. My outpost holding pen and the taming pen are separated by a dino gate, and last time I tamed something at that outpost, I must have forgotten to close the gate after moving the dino from the taming pen to the holding pen. So of course this allowed the saber to start attacking my dinos, who promptly laid down an azz kicking on the saber. Oh well, I needed to refill the food bins anyway, as the meat had spoiled. Then due to local construction, my internet started getting weird, so I just logged off, and went to bed early.

If this is the case then what was the point of paid for bionic skins WC?? What a way to show you're thanks to the fans who paid!! I for 1 will never buy squat from you again if it is and i'm sure others wont because of you're past stunts. Anything but these would be fine, ankylo, mantis, allo, even a bloody pegomastax. Are you guys really that lazy?? Prove to us and to yourselves that you are better devs than this. Not giving up and letting you're game rot like a bronto corpse because if the last game was rotten then the next will stink as well!!!!!

CrossArkCluster1 - Ragnarok I finally managed to bring everything over from my tribe's main base on The Center to my new outpost on Ragnarok. Indy Forge, Chem Bench, Fab, Genny, turrets etc. My plan was to keep it all in a small and remote location until I sufficiently scouted out the server to see if my preferred building locations were uninhabited. Praise Talos, because my #1 preferred spot was the Castle, and it was empty! With the exception of a few random sleeping bags, campfires and spike walls that I had to clear out first ;). I talked to the Alpha's (in which i've conducted many trade deals with, and am personal friends of) and got full permission to build there. I only asked because they have a monstrous 3 behemoth-gate-high base within rendering distance of the Castle. Apparently it was an old Wyvern pen that got abandoned after the 100 turret limit. So far i'm REALLY digging the Castle though! Gives me a nice ES4 - Oblivion feel. And it's nice that they made the rubble farm-able for stone, so I don't have to have piles of junk lying around in my new home. I plan to throw down my crafting stations and secure a room with turrets so that I can start working to get this dirt mound looking proper. So many ideas! And there is a nice beaver spawn nearby for CP, as well as small Bee Nests near the base of the Castle for bears (my tribe loves bears). It's gonna be a nice project.

PS4 - private server - Ragnarok After waiting a few hours for the download to finish, I jumped on for a short bit, to see if I could spot any of the new colors or the tek Stego. After about 10 minutes of flying around on my Fire Wyvern, I found a level 168 Tek Stego female. Wonderful green body with red. I grabbed her and dropped her off in one of my taming pens. I knocked her out, then flew over to one of my crop plots to grab some veggies as I don't have any sarco kibble on this server. Then I crafted up a saddle and painted in all black She stood up at 251, I rode her for a bit to collect berries and level up a bit, and then I dropped her off at the main base. Then I called it a night.

A lot has happened since the last time I wrote here. I'll tell the more interesting one I think. I started playing more actively again on our Aberration server, but it was basically only me playing and I got bored of being alone (I blame my friends for introducing me to online multiplayer... I was fine sticking to my single player games, but now I want to play with others). Also, after watching some youtube videos, I got a craving to play on Ragnarok again, as the map wasn't finished when we played on it before. With this in mind, I went to check the server advertisement section of the forum and found an active, unofficial PvE cluster that sounded like a good fit for me. I've been playing on this cluster for a week and half now I think and I'm liking it so far. I started on Ragnarok, in one of the easy areas. Tamed a 140 lystro that was walking around in front of me and set off to build my starting shack. One thing I noticed immediately that separated the cluster from an official server, was the lack of 1x1 thatch huts littering the beaches. Instead you had either proper bases, or just a pristine beach (they have rules about cleaning up after yourself, which I like). I made my shack and tamed a bunch of animals (dodos, dilos, trikes) and had a good time puttering around, killing every dastardly seagull I could. My friends got curious and decided to join as well, so we now have a small tribe on the cluster. Of course, two of my said friends have pretty much stopped playing, so it's just me and S playing atm. At least now, if she also stops, I can join another tribe and don't have to feel all alone anymore. My plans on this cluster is to do things a bit differently. I want to tame things I haven't tamed before (like tuso) and use tames I haven't used as much such as wolves, sabers, raptors etc. Basically, I won't breed any rexes/theriz and instead buy fert eggs for boss fights. I also won't use said rexes/theriz other than for boss fights and instead stick to smaller tames with argents as the highest tiered tame. I haven't decided yet how to go about collecting wyvern eggs, because I want wyverns even if they'll only be base decoration. I might use a wyvern for it when I get one, but we'll see. Also, I want to do all the caves, bosses and ascension on all difficulty levels, which I still haven't done all of. Hopefully, it'll be fun to try and accomplish this. As of now, we only lack a fiber/thatch gatherer as we have all the other essential tames. I've started looking for dimorphodons for caving, but haven't had much luck so far. Tamed a 140 male, but he got hit so I lost some levels on him unfortunately. I'm going to breed the dimos I thought, mainly because I haven't before and because I can. I'll continue to look for more dimos today and also to keep an eye out for tek stegos and event coloured creatures. This is our small base, which I call small as dino gates are the largest gates that will be used in it: I just realized that the breeding building is not on any of the images, but oh well.

Started today off doing a little pearl farming on SE. Then we decided we should hop over to the island and finally try to finish the wall around our base. We have been putting it off for weeks and it needs to get done. So we start out by gathering stone wood and thatch. While gathering my wife spots a 217 female bronto with a cool pattern on the beach so we decide to trap it and tame it While it was taming we continued work on the wall. I noticed a glowing bone pile so I picked it up and it had an ascendent bronto platform saddle bp...kind of cool to get since we were currently taming a bronto. So the bronto finishes taming and stands up with 20k hp. We manage to finish the back wall and half of a side before we had to go to work. Tomorrow we will continue work on the wall and also start organizing dinos. Its a complete mess now, its been a while since we put anything back, lol Heres the bronto

Well considering the 27 page long thread in the bug reporting section is being ignored (yes i posted it on there too), thought i would post it here. Maybe somebody at HQ will put down the coffee and donuts and go find the thread.....oh wait...heres a link. wow 656 replies, maybe theres a problem dontchya think ?????
