Not always, depends on the map. The island they spawn in the snow which how this game is, high levels usually spawn in dangerous places. I think on maps like center, Val and rag they spawn on beaches but I haven’t played those maps in so long I don’t remember. One would have to utilize the spawn maps. Cyberra, there are many ways around this. One, you can build a decent area trap using dino gates with one section left for a ramp to bring the chali into the trap. Or you can also utilize the spawn maps and find out which map would be the easier to tame one on, those are only two suggestions out of countless ways to make it work, ya just gotta think outta the box. Utilize the tools available for your disposal, youtube, Dododex you name it. Depending on the map, spawns are more dense than others. I’ve been a PvE console player from just about day 1 on console and I never remember being able to pick up wild dinos, so that had to have been something that they changed relatively early within the game’s entrance onto the console or pc stage. I can’t agree more, I mean the different taming methods are kinda nice and that’s one of my most favorite things about gen 2 (when servers were stable), but too much of a pain to tame and players aren’t going to waste their time and find an alternative to taming that creature that is more time/cost effective. This also brings up the fact that since the gen 2 mic drop, a vast majority of creatures have been rendered quite literally useless and pointless to tame. On the flip side of that coin, with transfers, discord, Facebook and whatever other means players don’t have to tame ANYTHING unless they want to, they can just buy it. My hat is off to anyone who tames their own stuff. I personally enjoying taming my own creatures, but will resort to buying a creature I want if I don’t have an efficient way of taming it. As far as the andrewsarchus goes, I’m gonna wait to see what Captain Fatdog comes up with for a trap before I attempt that rodeo lol. It does seem like another yard ornament for PvE, just like the armargasaurus and countless other creatures that have been added to the game. PvP, I can see the appeal but it seems that the devs have lost touch with how the game is played, and has been played for the last 5+ years. It’s not played like age of empires with an army of variety (like many of their trailers portrayed), things are handled with gigas. I can’t count how many PvP videos I’ve seen where at some point a giga (or gigas) is introduced to lay down the law. Whether be in the beginning or end the giga is 100% sure to make an appearance. My point being, it doesn’t matter how many creatures are added to add variety of game play to the game, the giga was, is and always will be the go to for any sort of “lay down the law” situation. Sorry WC, that’s just how the game is played on official, and has been. If the giga is added into Ark 2 it WILL be THE SAME WAY MAKING IT THE SAME GAME! So here’s my thought, fix Ark 1, push back Ark 2 and actually truly make it separate from Ark 1, then ya might have something for people to get hyped about. Right now most of us are quite positive that Ark 2 is just gonna be pretty a much a do over of Ark 1, so ya wanna make a statement with Ark 2? Prove us wrong, we double dog dare you!

if you physically damage the hive to destroy it you wont get anything back, if you use the pinwheel to demolish the hive the queen should spawn in and you can pod/re-hive the queen only time i've personally ever seen the hive/queen poof is when stabbing it till if breaks.(I was young and dumb once now well i'm just not young )

Wait what? Think you made a typo: EA ends in 2027.
