Hey guys, thanks for all your info. We are aware of and working on the following issues with Fjordhawk taming: 1. When eating a corpse the player has killed, Fjordhawk will not gain taming affinity (progress) when the player is mounted (PC and Console) 2. Fjordhawk will no longer eat tamed dinos to gain taming affinity (progress) on PVE servers (PC and console) If there are any additional problems (different from the ones mentioned above), please let me know in this thread and I will investigate, thanks

Fjordur is tough, died more than i care to remember. I play on singleplayer with max taming so it could be lots harder but i don't have the time or patience for that. I finally have a base of operation and mild tames. I have decided that I need to keep my tames out because of random things spawning in my base when i leave. Picture of my current situation.

That was a special brand of hellish I'll tell you what. You can't even begin to imagine all of the beach and hidey hole structures I had to wipe when the bobs that were just trying the free game decided it wasn't for them and left their structures and tames to just decay. Some days I feel less like a player and more like a janitor.

It was free a few weeks ago on PSN. For a week or 2 the beaches were cluttered with 1x1 thatch and sleeping Bob's and naked low levels trying to sneak attack on you in PvP. It was hilarious at first but after a few days I did not bother to warn them for the Alpha Rex following me anymore. My deepest sympathy for all the PC players trying to reach their new base on Fjodur. Making ARK frre in this week is kind of stupid.

Could you please avoid using black text on dark grey backgrounds? This quote made it readable but the original post is almost secret text when viewd on Firefox.

Are we going to be able to get all engrams on Fjordur and if we are do you have an ETA on when we will get it

If you love the community so much, why are there still game breaking bugs that have been in the game for literal years unpatched?

Same here, I was so excited but now I'm not even going to touch it.

Having mixed feelings about the new game mechanics inspiration, my biggest worry is the new partner: Grove Street did have a big Ooophsy with the state in wich GTA project was released. Ok, they patched a few issues fairly quick but that should never have been allowed to happen! I love to play ARK but my biggest issue sofar has always been how Wildcard is handling their quality assurance and communications about issues. Teaming up with a partner that is even worse on that part is kind of worrysome. Anyhow, I wasn't jumping on the hypetrain before and we don't even know when it will come to PS5 so I'll grab my popcorn and just see how it all goes.

6.5k hours, mostly unofficial PvP. The biggest negative to me is by far the souls gameplay. To me it is a shocking direction to take the ARK franchise. I'm stunned. I really don't want a fighter game experience, not something I enjoy, at all. I want an FPS experience, and I believe this is a big reason that ARK is so popular. Did anybody in the community ask for this? I get that you want to take risks to innovate and you should, but these are very different game genres IMO. I see no upside with this potentially highly polarizing decision. Player skill was mentioned, but 1v1 foot PvP is incredibly skills based in ARK 1 so that statement makes zero sense. I'm shaking my head as I am writing this. The 3rd person view decision is a close second. I'm cautiously negative about this. I don't think it is a good decision to remove 1st person gameplay, but far from as critically bad as the souls thing. Many of the rest of the gameplay announcements look cool and very promising. A new refreshed skills system is what we need, a more developed dino/player detection system sounds really nice, new crafting system that adds varieity and more uniqueness makes me curious, some PvE bot tribes would be really good for new players and the PvE crowd I guess too, and the engine looks sick. What you have to my knowledge not said anything about at all, are what are at the top #1 and #2 spots on my prioirity list. * Completely new mesh & map system, redesigned from the ground up for zero map exploits. * Anti-cheat, aim bot, duping, off-server ghosting and all the other malicious experience crippling exploits. This is why playing on unofficial with highly active community admins is for many the only meaningful way to play. I can't get over the above souls game things tho, such a strong negative. I find it very hard to feel excited right now.

Thanks for the help joe - the server is finally back up and restored. Really appreciate you helping. crazy thing is, the server time was running even though it was unaccesible for 9 days- I ended up with 48 cryopods dead and loads of my structures had autodecayed including power generators and eggs for breeding spoiled.

Except it has been. I know you like to provoke, but an official announcement has, indeed, been released. The delay has, in fact, been confirmed.
