Got XBox live, found a boosted undedicated server, and started building my base. Tamed a parasaur and a few dilos. Just started upgrading to wood when I got raided.

Yesterday I made 20 more fridges and got to farm tons of meat on my new wyvern. Today we are going to hatch our 3 boss Rex eggs, we will have enough to now attempt our first boss fights!

A long and productive day yesterday. First I did two runs back to herb island and cleaned out almost everything. All that's left behind is a bed, a smithy, the crops, foundations and the animals I'm not taking with me. Everything else went to what is now my main base at Pearl. I set up all the crafting stations and built a quick and not especially pretty base. I'll work on it later, it serves its purpose for now. Once that was completed I built an epic forge from Seven's Forge kit, 50x faster metal refining. When you can't rely on server timers to put in some of the work for you, sometimes the solution is to simply boost production with mod help. I also got a new set of crops going. And I crafted, then upgraded until I got an ascendant longneck. Given the high cost of materials to use the upgrade station, I think it's fair. I also made 100 darts to start with. Unfortunately there wasn't too much to hunt yet because I had another major project to work on first. The hidden lake is very, well, hidden and part of the issue with that is moving animals in and out of the gates with so many obstacles. So I spent much of the afternoon clearing two of the three valleys, using foundations to block respawns and building up quite a stock of materials with my doed and mammoth. I also built a small dock for my raft and built a taming pen into the end of one valley, with an elevated shooting platform. Then it was off to hunt and clear spawns with my spino. Unfortunately he is a low level and it shows; we eventually retreated back to base to heal after a particularly nasty fight with an alpha raptor, a carno and a 125 rex. I took my bird out to scout instead. Eventually I brought back a 140 event colored anky, which is one of the animals on my checklist. I also want a good doed, mine is painfully bad and I have the resources so it's time to upgrade. Didn't find a doed, but I eventually found a 114 tek rex I had scouted previously along the volcano river. In the absence of a taming pen I simply used the valley by the end of the river. Luring her in was hard. KOing her, easy. Unfortunately her TE got wrecked by a raptor of all things, so basically no bonus levels. Disappointing, but it's not like I'll be using her for breeding or anything I guess. In any case, a 100+ apex predator is a fine mount and her job is basically to clear spawns and harvest prime meat from alphas, both of which she does admirably well. I haven't actually named any of my animals yet. Usually I do. I guess I don't care as much when I'm by myself, heh. Granted I never name breeding project animals either, only the animals born from the project. Anyway. I'm in a much stronger position than I was at the start of the day. Today's goal will be continuing to build up. I need pachyrhinos, a beetle, megalos, a better doed, a bear, a tree platform with sap taps, sheep...I don't know if I'll get everything, and I still have plenty of building and crafting to do.

At the moment got too much work. Can write only now what i did the last 2 weeks. Last weekend at 8x i got only an hour. So i farmed only 4k Crystal on Aberration. But on Sunday night i was done with work and had a free day. So i put 20 Spino Eggs and breed them. They grew so fast. The hour it took for the Eggs to hatch i gathered tons of fish at the Aberration River. it was really fast, 6,5x at this time. i kept 10, 8 of them had the 414 Melee, the other 2 had my Magenta Mutation. In the morning i could imprint all of them, they got 50% on 1 Imprint. At Afternoon i could do the 2nd and last imprint on 9 of 10. The last one wanted Dimetrodon Kibble. The only KibbleDino i still dont have. I have now a fully imprinted Magenta Spino with 414 Melle and 6,4k HP. He is my new Allrounder. Cause Monday was 4x i breed 15 Ankylo Eggs. I wanted more of my Venom breed. 7 of the Venoms had 451 melee at start, so i kept them. 3 are other colours but with same Melee. I was able to imprint all of them. 1 Imprint and all get 100%. Now i wait for Tuesday and Extinction. I want a Cryopod. I got so many Spino, Crabs and Ankylo in my base. It will be really helpful to store them.

Why doesnt players let other players enjoy the new map? We cant even tame one animal. At least let people build a base and tame something to ride on before you start raiding.

Wildcard, great game, pathetic management. I run Linux. I'm on an official pve server. The server remains up and running, and I'm locked out as you cannot bother to send an update to the client for linux. At this point I expect to have to replace all my critters. What I have will starve by the time you allow me to play again. What really hurts is the hours I've spent raising critters for better levels and stats. Bugs not withstanding, I enjoy the game. I detest the management.

This is the worst dlc in ark

It didn't though, the majority of the people who play the game don't have access to it until Tuesday the 13th because of a DELAY

Beautiful! I Love all your work, the ending was awesome! Glad to see you guys working hard despite the hate your receiving
