Official Valguero, PvP (then PvE), all by myself I got to the point where I was ready to tame larger dinos. However, this will be an all-day affair without at least Regular Kibble. I have a female stego, but this also requires crops which requires crop plots which I am not very sure how long they would last in a PvP environment. There is no way to protect the crops form pillaging or just vandalism. Greenhouse walls are breakable by just about anything and putting crops inside of anything else just does not work. This was the bit that finally convinced me to go to PvE. I created a new survivor (since survivors are not allowed to travel from PvP to PVE or vice-versa on offical servers) on a PvE offical Valguero server. I decided to stick with Valguero since I have become familar with several locations and it is more interesting to me than The Island. My initial spawn point was right next to a huge brightly-lit castle that covered most of the Small Islands with dragons and elementals sitting around everywhere. I expected the alarms to start going off and dinos to swarm me, but everything was passive and calm. I swam away as my heart rate went back to normal and I decided that I would need a while to readjust to a non-PvP atmosphere. I built a raft and started a superstructure, but I may wait to complete it until I can do it in stone. All the fancy buildings in PvE make me hesitant to build a mere square wooden box. The neighbors will laugh at me. There are pillars all over the area where I am at. I am not trying to build any kind of permanent structure until I get enough levels to build with stone. I am just building lots of foundations (first thatch, then wood) and throwing them away for the leveling exp. I made it to 23 last night and will probably make it to stone tonight. With all of the pillars around, my first "permanent" location will probably be a raft. I have built large (5x7 with superstructure) rafts before, but not with the intent to live aboard them. I have seen some good designs with dino traps built-in. After I make a decent raft, I will start wandering around looking for a good place for a base that is not covered in pillars (or covered in Allosaur packs).

We completed the Gamma Ascention , Happy days ! not an achievement to many but we have tried and failed this a few times , only a two man tribe so were happy ! there dont seem to be many strategies out there for completing it , and we won but not as comfortably as i would like to then attempt Beta. we had 6 Rexs So any suggestions ?

Still pottering around the Island base snd setting it up. With the Rag server on its last legs and the Valguero server looking a bit dodgey atm I am tempted to make it my main base of operation for the time being. Maybe work on some boss teams of various makes ups, maybe even think about solo dragon fighting. Overall I am pleased with how the Main Island base overhaul has come along.

New fire wyvern to go alongside my Ice one. upload image

PS4 - Unofficial Cluster - Abberration My online buddy "Texas" and I headed down to the Radiation zone on around 10 pm. I told him I need to get to bed at a decent time, as I had to get up at 6 am for work. Well the server is running the Easter event, so we have been trying to get colored Reapers. last weekend we farmed a decent level queen, that gave us Yellow body, neon green belly and pink accent Reaper Kings babies. We got 3-4 each. Then during the week my buddy got a cyan and tan one, and last night after 2 full hours of very, very low level Queens, we finally found a good level. We built a trap, and kited her in, and then proceed to both get pregnant withing 2-3 minutes! We quickly built a birthing room (boosted rates, so pregnancy is under 30 minutes) and mine popped out, and it had the neon green body! This is the color we have been looking for the entire time. So we continued to try and farm her, but after the first round, she became very glitchy, and would not attack, and kept running away from us in the pen. However 2 hours later, we each had 4 babies from her. I raised one to the juvenile stage, and realized that the belly is yellow, with tan accents, so basically I have my "GB Packer" Reaper King! On the way out, my buddy got knocked off a cliff by another Queen, and where he landed, another decent queen spawned, so he got pregnant by her on the fly, and when we got back to his base, it was Orange with a Cyan belly! I wish I would have jumped down there and gotten pregnant too, but by the time I was back at my base, and logged off it was 2:25 am !!!! My alarm went off at 6:01, and I've got a long day of work. But I am so jacked about getting the Neon green (we refer to the color as "Toxic Green") Reapers. I am going to give one to my online buddy Indiana, who always has to go to bed around 8pm, due to his work schedule; so he never gets to go with us. Also, just like last weekend, online buddy California, was down with us; and in a repeat of last time his young foster son (health issues due to drug addict mother) started having problems, so he had to get off immediately. This has happened twice now, both times while we are trying to get pregnant from a Queen that turned out to be event colored. So I want to give him a Toxic Reaper baby too. His Character and Karkinos were left down in the Radiation zone also, as he logged off so quickly. I sure hope they don't get killed, as he was loaded up with back up Tek armor and cryo'd feather lights he tamed while we looked for queens. After HATING on Abberration since it came out, I am starting to like the map. I still get lost ALL THE TIME, but I'm kind of addicted to getting knocked up by Reapers. We plan on going back tonight!

@AngrySaltire @d1nk Great info guys. We might try this, but first we will have to grind out some teleporters. On this cluster, it costs 25,000 Hard Element per Teleporter. So they are not cheap, and very few people have them. The admins have a public one next to each OB however. (we have been hunting reapers on our own reapers. But our trap is much smaller, and maybe that is the issue. If we go tonight (if I'm still awake ) WE will try the larger pen, and I'll bring a meglo with.

@Aushegun @d1nk So you have the Reaper holding pen in the Fertile zone with the teleporter underneath the ceilings. Then you have the teleporter pitfall trap in desired location (for us its on the purple/red boundary).i have part of the teleporter sticking out the back of the trap so you dont have to get in with the reaper to teleport. Kite desired reaper into trap, (I cryo drake at this point). Jump on teleporter pad and teleport to holding pen. MAKE SURE TO HIT RIGHT TELEPORTER. You dont want to send the reaper where its not contained i.e. in the middle of your own bas lol. The reaper pops up above the ceilings into the trap as its to big to fit underneath. You will get wedged between the teleporter and ceilings but you should slide out of the trap. You are now free to bring down the reapers health at will, we use megalosaurus for this. Impregnated, pop, rinse and repeat, all in the safety of your own base for as long as you want as long as you keep it in render. I would say, the bigger the holding pen the better, if she grabs you, the walls do get in the way and will interupt the impregnation.

Extinction, SP Took the enforcer on an adventure to the waste along with 4 members of the Knights of Tails. Wandered around a bit and found a spot with a handful of rich metal nodes, so I made a mental note of the location for later. Went a little farther and spotted a corrupted fire wyvern. Ain’t no way I’m messing with one of those with my current crew, so I backtracked and spotted an element vein. I haven’t figured out how to gauge the difficulty of veins, but this was apparently an easy one as waves were primarily pteras and dilos with a few trikes, stegos, raptors, and Rexs sprinkled in. I didn’t have my mantis with me, so had to harvest by hand. Walked away with 31 element, 105 shards, and 3.5k dust. I brought these back to base, and didn’t do much after that other than craft 3 vaults and tame a second Achatina.

Thanks I am rather proud of it ? Its so satisfying just teleporting queen up from the red zone.

A long 'I told you so' could be in order Sir Aush! XD I would try to build a stationary trap teleport. You can throw a teleport down in rad, and put one in a safe non-rad zone to get pregnant @AngrySaltire has the screenshots. You teleport said reaper to fertile and safely preg there ((((WARNING)))) Do NOT derender the queen when in fertile

Clockwork creatures should be turned in to an event and skins and such awarded for killing and collecting nuts and bolts dropped by dinos. this would give console half a chance in competing and bring joy not only to the steampunk community but also all Arker's during the event . Transcendence not much to go on here at the minute but is sounds like an advanced TLC , this is something the Dev's should be working on anyway, so a helping hand from the MOD community is a great thing ! Structure Saver 2 i can see how this could be useful in a server admin way , allowing people to set up role playing servers and then wipe and reset over a certain time period , even base moving to an extent but the the game is based around the grind and restarting on a new server or location in half the battle , think this would be a mod only for un-official or creative mode.

time wasn't a issue, the damage they were doing was. in alpha phase my rex with 32k health and 986 melee was holding out pretty good, he only had a 78 saddle. didn't take any real damage until it was just me and the guy on the yuty. getting to the chamber wasn't a issue, just took our time going there, and pulled the giga into the lava, everything else got ate along the way.

FYI, you have unlimited time once in the overseer section. 19 rexes 20k hp 500% dmg equipped with 80 armor saddle + 1 yuti will let you solo the gamma one, but expect losses in the dragon phase (lost 14 rexes in my very first run). 18 theriz (20k hp, 700% dmg, 120 armor saddles, 15 cakes each) + 1 yuti and I have yet to lose a single one to the gamma overseer after 3 runs through the cave. Why 18 theriz? Because I ride a sacrificial rex to clear the cave while the crew is following. 3/4 of the opponents can be sniped and baited into lava. For higher difficulties, mutated creatures and 100+ saddles are mandatory. ~1400-1500% dmg theriz were needed for the alpha seer. And for the record, I do it on my unofficial server with "official settings", so it's perfectly achievable solo granting time investment. Cheers!

This won't happens. It was clearly stated in the description of the first pass that it was only including 3 huges expansions (being Scorched Earth, Aberration, and Extinction). Perhaps you should read the documentation of the products you buy next time.

EU-PVP-Official-[REDACTED] Things have been working out well at Safehouse 3, and with a decent stash of cryopods under my belt I decided to upgrade my raptor to an argie. I've spent quite enough time chasing birds around like Grandpa Simpson, so this time I did my homework and found this nifty little trap. Flying in the face of my own sage advice I returned to the mountain where I knew there were plenty of argies. I found a good one, level 110. After a couple of false starts I got it locked down. Blew away some low level birds for prime meat and settled in for a long tame. At around about 95% I thought, 'Well, that's pretty much done. I'll just grab a coffee and when I get back I can take her out for a spin.' Of course it was killed. Of course it was. Then on the way home someone dropped a giga on my head.

Wheres the community crunch? I mean come on they take about four seconds to put together based on how little content is ever actually in them

Structure saver sounds like the best one up there, I thought about it myself from time to time. I think itll very convenient

Managed to get on for half hour or so in the end last night. Found this guy right by my base so dropped a quick trap down and grabbed him. image hosting

QOL REQUESTS on the console the light and light reflection off landscape and materials is brutal.. tone it down a LOT... the server session list doesn't need to load a thousand servers every time.. everyone plays on one or a couple servers at once.. depending on clusters.. why aren't our favorites or recent servers logged, saved, and displayed only...

Soooo, are we not getting more info this week?

Its called season pass for a reason. They cant just publish their dlcs in one pass. Their sales would go down, and since they dont have many other ways to make money they have to publish more to make their company grow.

I care? Since when do you get the right to speak for everyone lmao

First, It's this will not happen and Huge. Perhaps you need to learn proper grammar. Secondly, ValGuero was an added DLC although player made, it still became available FREE. The purpose of A season pass is to cover any and ALL content provided for that specific title. Apparently you cannot read. The second argument was the dropping of the price. A profit has to be made, however the asking price is to steep. The price is $30 which is half of a brand new game. You are entitled to wasting your money if you so please, but take a look around you and find out what other players are stating. If your comeback is "The players don't matter", then you have proven my point. Examples? FO76, No Man's Sky, list goes on. All future content is FREE. If they are going to ADD to the game then that becomes DLC. If they are going to make a new game then it is no longer the existing game.

That's pretty cool and all but still nothing for console, thanks for leaving us behind.
