Had a mod-mismatch when trying to get to my regular servers, so I hopped in my SP Extinction game to pass the time. I already had a small stone base near a transmitter, so I decided metal would be needed going forward. Using the pick on the river rocks isn't too bad, but I decided an Anky sure would come in handy, so I began gathering stuff to tame one. I downed a level 30 and left my tek Parasaur by it, so it'd be easier to find. Meanwhile, I started taming some dodos. Everything was going well, and taming was around 90% on the Anky before two Defense Units decided to spoil it. I saw the damage numbers in the distance but wasn't able to get back in time to help. Both the Anky and my tek Parasaur were slain. I haven't spent much time on Extinction, so I wasn't sure about the dynamic with the robot guardians, and I'm still not sure exactly how things work. But anyway, I decided to attack the Defense Units and managed to drop one before joining my dinos in Ark heaven. A bit later, I went to kill a dilo for some hide, got attacked by insects before reaching him, and I'm guessing my attacking them somehow triggered an Enforcer. Maybe a scout was around? Trip to Ark heaven number two. After that, I decided I'd be a bit smarter when taming another Anky, a level 90 this time, and made a trap. Got the Anky in there and almost ran out of arrows knocking it out, but it finally dropped. Taming was again around 90%, when I ran into my base for like thirty seconds. Come back out, and a spider had dropped in from above and was biting my tame. Arrgh! So I managed to kill the spider, and decided that I didn't feel like waiting for the Anky to wake up. Forty-seven percent taming effectiveness, FTW! After that, I got in a groove. I went to the snow area on my Ptera, set up a trap, and after one wipe of owls managed to find a 145. I'm pretty sure that one closed the doors of the trap on itself, too, it was so easy to get it in there. Back at base, my owl horked up a bunch of pellets and we went off to the Aberration area. It's really cool how they set that area up. Anyway, I tamed three Gachas. I'm using the Dino Storage V2 mod, so I was able to bring them all back to base. No element ones, but got ones with black pearls, regular pearls, organic polymer, and obsidian. So overall not too bad. Before taking a break, I decided I needed a Doed so I could get stone for the Gachas. We flew into the Scorched Earth area and managed to find a 105 Doed after a minute. I dropped him, after running all over the place and fending off the occasional scorpion. (Note to self: I have the pieces for a trap, maybe bring it next time!) I build a wall around him, while he starved a bit, fought off one of those Velas that was a little too close. Owie! Owie! Owie! And he eventually tamed up. So after returning to base, we went on a quick stone run and that's where things are at.

Valguero the early days. Excited to finally get on to Valguero and start exploring. I did have a quick scout around on single player but on our cluster we are starting out fresh. Spawned fresh on beach zone 1 first of all and started to level up, first goal was to craft up a raft . Even spawned in at the same time as Salty and allied up. Moved up the beach and started to make a make shift shack to level up, didnt get far with that walked round a rock and got nailed by a raptor. Spawned a few more time about the different spawn zones to explore. Settled on the small islands and crafted up a nice Valguero lake going raft. Started to explore the coastline, stopped off by The Farm and harvested some of the vegetables and hit up the metal nodes at the top of the hill. Ran for it back to my raft when I spotted the raptors. Next stop was to the Aberration cave entrance, went to explore the entrance in attempt to find some crystal. Went in found the green gems and made my escape. Had a quick explore of the white cliffs coastline but it was a bit too dangerous. But I did spot a pair of equus so I tamed those up with the rockarrots from the farm, nothing amazing just a level 100 and level 15 but theyll do for breeding up throw away horses. Taming horses is always fun, spent the entire time praying the horses didnt take me in the direction of the local allo pack. Stopped back off at the small islands and started construction on a taming raft and converted the original raft into a mobile base. Bred up the horses at the same time, so now we have enough horses incase we get them kiled. Took the taming raft and a horse to the white cliffs, and went off exploring for our main base location which I had scouted out in single player. Dodged deinonychus, raptors and allos, got lost a few times but made it up to the lake I was aiming for. Got a hut and a bed down and started my descent back to my raft. Met my fate when I jumped of a cliff and landed next to a raptor which dismounted and killed me. Havent had the horses death message yet, so it either won the fight or both of them are still in stasis, moneys on the stasis. Decide that the white cliffs were not a good starting point for a base. So I started making up a base near by up on one of the hills overlooking the lake. Stone harvesting was killing me, so I took the taming raft and trapped and tamed up a doed. Now I just need to find something whicj can harvest wood and theres enough ankys about our base spot to keep us busy.

Explored around the green ob on Valguero on foot for a bit. Saved once or twice by my trusty dilo companion. Tames a couple of pteras but then spotted a 74 Argy. Figured it was a good enough level to go for to get me mobile around the map. Once it tamed up I hopped on, loaded up some gear and took off for pastures new. I ended up in the ruined Fort near the Deinonychus spawn region in the south east. I'm going to plug the holes in the walls and make it my next home

I spent time grinding for trap building stuff this morning.. gathered carrots from the farm near 50/50. Created an argy trap and a 2x2 drop trap for anky and doed. Got 2x 145 breeding pairs of anky and argy and a 135 doed. Tamed a parasaur to gather narco berries only because it was right there outside my base. A lystro because i love my little cheerleader. Flew around a lot of the map looking for my starter rexes and a nice pack of allo's. Found some great levels but didn't bring trap on scout mission. Found a cave I saw a reference to on a video a couple of days ago mentioning artifact locations. I think it was nooblets if anyone else wants to find artifacts and feels like checking it out. @d1nk do you want a list of cave co ords for your Val thread most of them are in the vid I saw I can note them all down for you if needed. There were no threats it has an an artifact at approx 33/50 and 3 loot drops a red, blue and yellow. For those who want some quick loot. Sorry I didn't have GPS with me I just remembered the location when I saw the surrounding area at entrance. I will be running it non stop tomorrow to hopefully get some great gear. Managed some pretty good gear so far from normal drops. Still yet to actually explore White cliffs, I've skirted the beach so far. I have seen loads of new Dino's around green ob and tundra area so not needed to explore that far yet. I'm surprised how many beavers are on this map. All in all I feel like today was productive.

Saturday - Played on valguero for a bit hubby settled us in a cave behind the green ob. Quite small but it's a start, was very surprised to see the new Dino living so close to green ob we grabbed 4x145 eggs so close to base. I'm just having fun exploring the map so far. There really is a lot to see. Feel bad for those who are still having issues with the launch of win10 servers, glad I chose to play single player for my initial exploration. Don't think I will be playing the map on servers for a long while as I intend to complete the island and move on to each map ascending each time. Spent a few hours teaching brother in law how to tame and build so now leaving him to it.

Tragically, Oz didn't last the day. He was killed by a Bronto while I was offline. It's carnage out here on the edge, man. Carnage I tell you. Just me, Dorothy and Snoop Lion now. This afternoon we stripped the base and tonight we go north in a stone gunship. This is not my first attempt to conquer the north and tensions are high. I hope to raise morale by rescuing Scarecrow, who got lost in the mountains some days ago.

Double prime meat for Oz tonight, after he killed and ate a raider while I was stripped and unconscious on the floor. Further attacks are anticipated.

Add more official PVE OC Valguero servers for Xbox One. You gave us one rubbish server! While every other region has at least 5+. Pathetic!

Why was there no EVO event this weekend?

Hello, just to make it clear; There is no EVO event running at the moment atleast for PS4. Is this normal ?

lies thiers no 2 x on ps4 valguero cross arks . this is really dissapionting.

La domesticación, cosecha y exp 2X no está activa en Ps4.

Please add more servers on x box, I can never get on a server because every server is full

In the wyvern cavern there is issue with invisible wyverns

Yeah I am waiting also it sucks

why is 2Xs taming, harvesting and exp is not active on Ps4?

I am wondering the exact same thing

This update has messed up imprinting big time idk how but for example pteranodon gets 2 imprints 50 percent each on official same with rhinos now its 25 percent but imprinting time is still the same making it impossible to get to 100% before its fully grown messed up 3 of my mounts needs to be fixed fast major issue FOUND

So what happen to 2x?

Why are there 12 cross ark pvp servers ?

Or possibly Deinonychus

Nothing. Windows 10 cert didnt pass again.

Got my breeding pair of owls, argys and featherlights prodded and ready to transfer to Valguero. Grabbed the gear I wanted to take, had a final look around my Centre home and headed to the obelisk. Uploaded my gear, and swapped my server to Valguero. Made it to the Green Ob after a couple of deaths, grabbed my gear, threw out my owl and..... What the hell? Its white and level 1, not orange and level 259. Tried the next and got the same. Tried the argies. Same Tried the featherlights. Same So all my breeding work has gone out of the window =( I guess I'll be starting Valguero properly from scratch then. Grapped a nearby Parasaur and dilo. Found a save cave near the Ob and threw down a quick thatch house. Logged out for the night. Not overly impressed that I lost my favourite owls =(
