The fact that people don't want to dump money on crap doesn't make them poor or unemployed, it just means they got other priorities. And brains.3 points

Hey survivors, we’re back with a few updates and a few new surprises too 😉! Let’s Raptor pounce right into our plans for Jan 31st that will ignite your creativity and fuel your adventures: We’re excited to announce a date for the upgraded ARK Development Kit with an eye-catching side-scroller mod example. On Jan 31st, we’ll be releasing an update to the development kit that provides more ways to bend ARK to your imagination, with features that were previously locked away now at your fingertips! Here's a work-in-progress sneak peek of our upcoming two-player side-scroller example mod. The simple game framework uses no gameplay code from ARK: Survival Ascended, and has been stripped down to the foundational Unreal classes, so anything you could do in Unreal Engine 5. You'll have the ability to create your own unique games, and they could be released on ARK, changing as much or as little as you'd like! We're introducing an upgraded cosmetics system, letting players forge their own visual masterpieces for structures, costumes, and more. Best of all, they can be used on any server without the need for the servers to download a mod. It can all happen under the hood of your client, including on Official Servers! So decorate your bases and suit up how you'd like! In a later update, these custom visuals will automatically download in the background while you explore, so get ready to discover fresh surprises on structures, items, and characters every time you venture around the ARK! Spice things up with our brand-new premium mod initiative, launching on January 31st! These high-quality mods, moderated by CurseForge and Wildcard, look to add a whole new layer of excitement to your ARK experience. We had to iron out a few kinks in the server transfer system and move the date back to Jan 31st. Once enabled, players will be able to download items and creatures onto the map without restriction. We will also launch some fresh non-transfer Official PvP servers at this time and we’ll share more info on those prior. Download in full resolution The Oasisaur, a gentle giant of the Earth, stands as a living sanctuary, offering protection and sustenance to all creatures in its vicinity. With its unique ability to create a safe haven, it shields players from environmental threats and hostile creatures, though it offers little defense against other players. This majestic creature offers a beacon of tranquility on this scorching earth. Download & play new custom content created by players, including new maps, creatures, items, and game modes, through a dedicated new Mod-bowser directly within the game. Enjoy an endless stream of new ARK content as the creativity and talent of the community is fully unleashed for the first time across gaming platforms and stay tuned as we spotlight more Cross-Platform Mods each week!

I understand the need for and the benefits of the new cryopod nerfs for PVP but for PVE they are just painful and irritating. We now have small cryo-base spam around every cave, every POI - some tribes are able to release their dinos inside caves (those who built in strategic spots where their cryofridge radius clips into the cave below) but most are not. That means there are 2 tiers of player, those who can easily farm loot drops and artifacts in caves, and those who cannot. It's simply not fair and creates a lot of toxicity on some official PVE servers. There are very few benefits to the new system in PVE as they are actually playing out and big downsides. It creates needless frustration and a feeling of unfairness. I know this has caused players I know to return to ASE and they won't be the first, it's such a shame. Please revert cryos to the old system on PVE. Ty.1 point

Yes, I'm aware of why the cryos were brought back early, and I'm aware of why they decided to have these half and half measures. But as they are actually playing out on PVE official is not what they intended and just creates unnecessary friction in the game (in personal gameplay and between players).1 point

The only real problem with the scorched earth map is it’s kind of small hopefully they expand it.1 point

This game is so amazing. Between the amazing hard work you have to do after losing everything to invisible bosses or loot drops. Or even the satisfaction of having a water dino you spent hours taming suddenly die for no reason just so you can have a wonderful time getting the resources to do it all over again. How incredible it is having to do the tek cave multiple times because you don't get the implant as intended so you get the joy of doing it all over again. I'm so glad that wildcard really cares about its community by keeping things the way they are too. But also by worrying more about things like transfers, a different map, and just overall things that keep it the way it is in this great state... It's really awesome having to be right in front of a giga, charc, quetzal, etc. So it can render in close enough so you can get the full appreciation of its colors and textures. Really a "Great game" so great in fact that I've stopped playing, Uninstalled, and requested a refund not only because it's too good to play. But also because the support is so great that when you submit a ticket they respond at the earliest convenience of weeks or even months later. 💩1 point

As I exsperenced during the winter Wonderland and Turky Trial event, the x1.5 rates feels like the sweetspot-rate for me (especialy as solo player) for official servers. It's not to much and not to less and it feels more compatible with real life. Timer fitt better etc. Would it be better to rise rates to x1.5 permaently and make it x2 or 2.5 during events? What do you think?1 point

Some creatures in ARK have unreasonably scaled (high or low) base HP and/or damage stats. Here's a fix-list: Daeodon: Lower base HP from 900 to 450, and base torpor from 800 to 375. Gigantopithecus: Lower base HP from 640 to 275, and base damage from 40 to 25. Lower Yeti's base HP from 2000 to 750. Liopleurodon: Requires a lot of fixes: No longer disappears after 30 mins. Luck Aura is now an ability that drains 100 stamina per second. Lower base HP from 3200 to 1800. Increase base damage from 40 to 75. Plesiosaurus: Lower base damage from 75 to 40. Brontosaurus: Increase base HP from 2070 to 3000. Sarcosuchus: Increase base HP from 400 to 625. Spinosaurus: Increase base HP from 700 to 900. Giganotosaurus: Lower base HP from 80000 to 2500, base torpor from 10000 to 2000, and base damage from 500 to 100. Increase base weight capacity from 700 to 1025. Carcharodontosaurus: Lower base HP from 70000 to 2000, base torpor from 6000 to 1250, and base damage from 211 to 75. Rock Elemental: Lower base HP from 25000 to 4000. Lower Rubble Golem's base HP from 4000 to 750. Wyvern: Increase base HP from 1295 to 1725. Lower base damage from 80 to 62. Rock Drake: Increase base damage from 60 to 62. Griffin: Lower base HP from 950 to 725. Make them breedable. Reaper: Make all Reaper variants (King and Queen) have the same base HP of 2000. Titanosaurus: Lower base HP from 230000 to 25000. Will now properly eat. All the above creatures with modified (or non-existent) stat adds per level-up now have the same level-up percentage values as most creatures, which are: +20% HP +10% stamina, oxygen, and food +2% weight +5% damage Additionally, all creatures that receive a nerf to any of their stats upon tame, no matter how severe, now no longer have such a nerf upon tame.1 point

In that case play single-player and just use admin commands to spawn in what you want. It has never been necessary "to spend the next 2-3 years breeding and having no life". ARK has a ton of faults, but lack of flexibility is not one of them. Asking for the game to be P2W makes no sense and wouldn't make anything better.1 point

now I was thinking, the auto-cosmetic download and possible bloating of servers, could be a big issues especially for console players that have limited mod storage capabilities (especially PS5)1 point

Yet it stopped at simply buying the map before. If buying packs for Dinos becomes a thing and players can’t access specific creatures without buying a pack regardless of having the map things get real out of hand real quickly1 point

Yeah, I was unaware of all of the issues that it still had. I didn't bother checking out of impatience. Now I regret it. It's really sad how we're getting utterly screwed over by something that ought to be fixable and a huge priority. But I guess people were right.1 point

THIS, THIS, THIS! Real quick, hello! First time being here and posting! Second of all, this is completely true! I have the PS5 version of the game and I've been waiting for something about them finally fixing the issues that it has. I don't care about anything else right now. I just want to play the game! Screw Scorched Earth and all of the fancy, schmancy crap to go with it! Which I (AND MANY OTHERS) can't do on console due to the save issues. It just looks like console players are getting the shaft like with Evolved. What is the point of buying a game that you can't even play? I want to stop crapping on the game and WC but at this point? I'm very tempted to get a refund. We haven't gotten so much as a peep about any fixes to console Ascended! Third of all, what the heck is the point of showing us this if a not insignificant portion of the fanbase can't even play on the normal game!? PLEASE WILDCARD! Fix the game and please don't force us to pay for this new stuff! I can understand cool looking cosmetics, but please don't hide Scorched Earth behind another paywall! PLEASE FIX THE GAME!1 point

I guess we know why SE was pushed back now, to get this new dino into the frontier pack. This is a joke. This massive flying base isnt a cosmetic item. You cant call this a cosmetic pack anymore. Guess we shouldn't have expected any less from Shi and snail. Obviously we dont know the specifics of the Oasisaur, but it certainly seems like its going to give people a pretty big advantage on a dry wasteland type of map like SE. That is the exact opposite of what a cosmetic pack is supposed to be. Didnt take Shi long to introduce p2w elements into the "cosmetics" pack to force those who want to remain competitive on a server into buying it. If something like this is in the very first pack, I imagine its only going to get worse down the line.1 point

ehhh not exacty, for example in ASE I didn't have Genesis and therefore I didn't have access to Strider and I found myself in situations where I went to some places to collect something specific (for example the Fjordur cave for NonameVenom) and while I was picking the first node here a Strider passed over me which completely ruined my journey, in the time in which I had collected 2 poisons that Straider had cleaned the entire cave. Is it pay2win? I couldn't classify it.. If we want to give a PVP example, without Genesis (worse if I only had Ark with only TheIsland) I wouldn't have access to Shadowmane-Astrodelphis-Astrocetus-etc. and also to some structures like Ammobox etc.. is it pay2win? maybe.. In ASA the maps and their resources/dinos will be accessible to everyone in the same way, but when a new map is released that I might not want to buy but that map contains some animals or weapons OP and you buy that DLC you are paying2win ? Between you and me, I think that in Ark this concept is a bit controversial to judge, in PVE I can enjoy the game to the full even without purchasing any package that would create advantages so in my opinion I would completely exclude PVE from this discussion , while in PVP I don't think we can talk about P2W until we can buy something like "temporary immortality" "paid protections" "statistical advantages" etc. etc. that can put any player in a situation not accessible to the opponent without having to pay in turn just to get on par, the addition of Dinos/objects/weapons/resources via a new map is almost at the limit of the concept but each of those However, things can be obtained by anyone who is capable of conquering them through beaten or defeated opponents (therefore through your skill and without a payment behind you) they are not advantages that can be obtained exclusively through payment. All of this is obviously just my personal opinion.1 point

So still no comments or fixes for single player saves? This is just bad comedy at this point. Games saves have been a thing for 40 years, yet somehow it can’t be done consistently on ASA. Really sad.1 point

Can we just fix the console version so I can save my game reliability, and not loose entire days with of work? Pretty please?!?1 point

Yeah... I thought it'd be a reskin of an existing creature. Like, say, a Hadrosaur with the same abilities as the Iguanodon, for instance. You have a cool unique tame with custom sounds and animations, but it doesn't give you the upper hand. Wonder how creatures are going to be "acquired", actually. The Oasisaur can't possibly be spawning only for you to tame it, you know what I mean ? That'd break every rule of an online game if no other creature but you can perceive it, and it can't be killed while you try to tame it (that thing is as large as at least 5 Wyverns, it would make no sense !). But on the other hand, it's not like owning the pack immediately gives you as many of an OP creature as you want, of course. So I'm quite note picturing how it'll work. Say you're the only one on the server who has bought the Frontier pack, can you unclaim the Oasisaur for someone else to claim it ? That's how it worked in ASE... (sidenote : the lovely dino-selling con artists will love this) Or does it disappear the minute you unclaim it, risking for some pretty nasty incidents ? Can it be cryo'd and captured during a raid ? Am I crazy or was that never explained ? Same as the premium mods' practicality never being explained ? Like, is it possible to see what premium mods are on a server before loading it ? Who is even paying for it between the server owner and the players ? Did I miss something ?1 point

I thought that the additional Dino for the frontier pack would be a real extinct animal but holly cow that’s a flying colossal crab!!!!1 point

All you guys complaining about the frontier pack: are u Poor? Unemployed? The pack will sure be around 10-20 bucks All of u Play hundreds of hours in a fkn Game u paid Max Like 50 bucks for stop crying and buy the pack. Or simply stop crying. It is so ridicolous0 points

Oasisaur seems kinna OP... And the fact that it will potentially be tied to the paid Frontier Pack is kinna ridiculous and just makes these packs p2w. The paid packs shouldnt have anything more than cosmetics imo.0 points
