Welcome to another edition of the Community Crunch! Since the announcement of ARK 2, we've watched the community's excitement and anticipation rise as we continued to work diligently in the background to define the new survival experience. Despite anticipating our next showing of ARK 2 to be a gameplay showcase, we see the hunger and eagerness for more ARK 2 information, and we get it. We’ve decided to give you a peek behind the curtain and begin showcasing more ARK 2 tidbits regularly as we lead up to the first gameplay trailer. We hope you enjoy these appetizers, and we can’t wait for you to get your hands on the main course ! As always, we love seeing the passion of the ARK community on display, and we look forward to getting more information in your hands beginning this week! Introducing Stegosaurus: A noble guardian from a foregone epoch. Introducing Brachiosaurus: An aloof behemoth. Creature submissions are still live until 1 PM Pacific on January 23rd! Once the forum is closed for entries, we will round up the top 10 upvoted submissions and enter them into a second round of voting using RankedVote, similar to the last creature submission process. We'll announce the timing in the next Community Crunch! Check out the Creature Submission Guidelines for more information on the submission process and hop over to the Creature Submission Forum to see the current entries.
