Actually the simulation doesn’t simulate where we are going. That was never it’s purpose. It was to get us ready for the extremes. Every environment and creature was taken to a extreme so we are ready for whatever crazy environment we show up at. It wants to make sure we can survive wherever we happen to go. The volcano simulates volcanic and planets closer to their star. The tundra simulates frozen planets and worlds farther from their star. The bog and ocean simulate weird ways it is possible for perfect planets to form. Be it fully aquatic or fully jungle.

Maybe we're gonna see a new type of dino variant, "mutated dinos", similar to the corrupted dinos on extinction but instead of having the black rash, they would rather be affected by the same fleshiness that grows on the logo from the teaser, which would be a lot more in line with rockwell

Lost a full kit and cryos to spawning inside a vault in someone's base. It will never be fixed

yeeeah same on PVE.... all hardspawn should be "no build areas" in generell!..... its annoying for YEARS, they dont care! -.-

so i decided to return to ark and give it another go. first thing i considered doing was making my way through to beat all the bosses first. then i realized the fear event would be around the corner, so i decided to plan on ways i could defeat the dodorex. as i was talking to a friend he suggested using creatures that have bleed effects, my first thought was allos or carnos, but my friend suggested deinos, then being smaller and potentially harder to hit and over all easier to breed. i figured sure why not. so i spent 2 whole days grinding wild deino nests, using a method i commonly use when h

All eight vaults demolished but strangely when I did there seemed to be other vaults stacked within the first. Each required demolishing 3 times until only 2 drop bags remained from each. Who ever left these vaults hoarded every weapon type from mainly mc quality down to primitive. Also the same with armour, but the greatest prize for me was the huge amount of saddles and saddle bps. I have spent hours ferrying gasbag loads back to my to my base. I am still sifting through my reward now. All in all a great Ark day

Well that does make sense. After all, the areas are very Earth like, and it wouldn't make sense if some other planet has Earth like landscapes. Not related, but I remembered something from earlier. In the Genesis 2 poster they released a few months back, we saw the dragon creature emerging from the dark. That creature is hairless and looks a little fleshy... perhaps Rockwell's mutation is in play here?

This is perfect I will try this thanks for the advice

My advice for starting a singleplayer game or how I usually start is: 1. Do an explorer note run, you can find videos on youtube. 2. Build a starting base while you have the increased xp from the notes. 3. Tame some dodos to sit in the house, mostly females with one or two males, then tame a lystro to sit with them, easy to tame just hand feed mejoberries. Once you can craft a food trough place it near the tames, usually outside the house where the dino pen will be/is, fill the trough with berries and then use the dodos and lystro to store low weight items. 4. Tame dinos. A

That begs the question- will they be tameable? That would be an interesting twist: Dinos are untamable and we rely more on ourselves and alien creatures.

Not sure if you've got something filtered, but when I go there it is all uptodate. https://store.steampowered.com/newshub/app/346110/

OOooooohhhhh........ok, now I got a bit more meat to chew on for thought......Ok, if you really want to get a bit more advice on what you should try out......get the "bola" and "club" engrams unlocked.....either go find a couple of explorer notes, or build something....maybe kill something. Once you get those two engrams, here is a bit of a challange. First one is easy and simple, try to tame a <level 20 duckbill dino....AKA a parasaur. These guys are fairly easy, all they try to do is run away when you attack them, so no worries if they get free....Equip the bola, snare them in place {i

I allways use thylo......get you a "decent" level to start with, say a 50 or better, and then cryo pod him up for a day or two, secound day throw him out, put ALLL of those stat points into health, then run him in the caves. If you can tame up a much higher level thylo, its recommended, but if not, don't worry as you will be hitting some explorer notes along the way. Once you get em to 15k, you can mess with melee and weight if you like. Also, I love their ability to climb....Im many of the caves, you can use this to your advantage to "short cut" past the normal run through. Also, its sav

nope as that 'consistency' is unreliable what makes it inconsistent again

Wouldn’t that just make them... consistent?

At least WC is remaining consistently inconsistent. I admire that

(Official, Scorched Earth) Logged on to reset base decay and feed dinos. Turned out I was delaying it for too long, so there is no base to reset and no dinos to feed. Oops! Gonna log on to (Official, Crystal Isles) now to check if things there are still, well, there. if they are - will go to fire swamp and tame a female ember wyvern because I'm kinda used to having one. If not - will tame a low-level tropical and build a new base. (Official, Crystal Isles) Everything's in place! Gonna gather some crystals now and go look for a nice ember wyvern. Taming lvl 60 male instead. Color

The problem with that theory is this: There is a visible curve and the pattern of the tek structures lines the whole thing confirming it is not the moon. as any structures would have been decimated when whatever catastrophe caused the moon to shatter.

No idea on time but I'll be taming Mantis', Carno's, and running Rock Drake eggs

Dodowyvern can't damage metal so can be trapped. Dodorex will effortlessly tear through any structure near him, even tek. They can both be chain bola'd and the rex can be trapped in large bear traps. They only hold for a few seconds so I'm not sure its much use. You could put a ballista on your skiff to knock the wyvern out of the sky though.

I left a base like that once, 5-10 vaults all labled "Asc BPs, Tek, Ele..." Each with a single fiber in them. I wish you better luck.

Xbox one Island official. Found a group of 8 vaults 10 days ago, obviously the result of an auto decayed base. I decided to build a structure around them to 'protect them' from the environment. The timer runs out in 12 hrs time. It's like Christmas eve waiting to what gifts I will receive from the Ark gods tomorrow. Fingers crossed.

If your gutsy, you could try tameing a high level frog, leveling him up, then pushing 100 or so healing potions, then hit the swamp cave really quick to level up obsurdly fast......take it slow tho....really slow.....maybe only hit the first or secound wave of dragonflies, then get the heck back outa there. I did that on official legacy server......Helped my tribemate go from lvl 5 to lvl 70 in one run.

Maybr you should have tried gamma monkey first so you wouldnt lose all of them... Oh and btw, The only time i have found deadon usefull was in the tek cave. We do all our boss fights without deadon. And no we dont have all the OP stat dinos like on official.

Being able to stay logged onto a server for more than 10 seconds would be a nice addition to the game

I do agree that it would be nice to have some well defined tiers so that we can build with things that look like what we are using. So if you are building a metal base - you have the metal decoratives and industrial items that fit it and if you are building a tek base, the same rule applies. This is just one part of that referring mostly to storage and crafting stations at the Tek Level. It drives crazy at times that a metal base or tek base still has to use wood tables, chairs, fireplaces, gardening plots, etc... It would be nice to have a better set of progressional pieces that fit

Fear Eolved 4 event should be breeding x3 and harvesting taming x2 (base x2=x4)

And then when I asked the ticket guy for a refund he just kept saying "prepare for more dlc" XD

Couldn't watch it. It kept rubber banding on the title screen , And then just black screened .

Hello Survivors, today I have two little episodes to tell. I've done a lot of grinding and base work to get a solid foundation on the chaos-server (valguero), but I'll spare you the details. It takes some effort getting used to playing on a 24/7 server, though. Those food-troughs never last long enough. Also I had some health-issues at the end of last week and couldn't play, so feeding the dinos has been an issue. Luckily a fellow player helped me out. I would've been in some trouble otherwise (since I didn't have any cryos then and all the Dinos were sitting at my base). ====== Epis

(Official, Scorched Earth) Fed the dinos, built the base a bit more (and then had to take almost all new parts down because since the last time I forgot in what order I should put spiral stairs and walls in order to have both at the same time. Oops!), looked for phoenix (didn't find it), shot a titanosaur a bunch of times (didn't result in anything, since I was using a primitive bow and missed half the time). (Official, Valguero) raised velonasaur (named Victoria) to juvenile. Raised the still-nameless managarmr a bit and made a saddle for him to wear when he's adult. Got some good riot a

SP, The Island, Great start to my kibble farm! Wow, this must be the easiest task I’ve done in a while. I needed that, too, because I’d suffered a few major losses in the recent past. Today I Got a male iguanodon and 4 females. I have lots of advanced crops saved up, and got 2 high(ish) level females so if I ever need to I can ride one. I have a comfy outpost at the red ob which was perfect for this. I then got a pair of oviraptors to I guess... set the mood. Ive already got a whack of argys and argy Eggs so I’ve got superior kibble covered. Next, I’m getting th

I go back and forth on this one. Honestly, it does need something more - I am just not sure what. After all - fighting to the end boss is great and all, but once you have done that half a dozen times, what is next? Genesis changed it up a bit, as it had a lot of missions added. A little too much if you ask me. It seemed more like a landscape of mini-games as opposed to a map to build and explore on. That is just my perspective though. Having some things to hunt and find is a start. The storyline official maps have notes and such that you can hunt down to extend the interest i

(Official, Valguero) Stopped feeding Generous (as in, no personal feeding, trough-only now) because I'm seriously swimming in obsidian now and don't need any more, won't need any more for a long time, in fact. So now only Schedraya gets food put directly in her inventory - metal is always useful, and I go through it pretty quickly. Bred them, just to see what resources the baby will make. Hope for something neat. Bred the velonasaurs, too, the baby is female. Will raise her later. Unpodded Frosty (the second owl) and still-nameless female tek rex to raise them, also, Deimos is an absolute mons

What they honestly need to do , to revive the game is fix all duping, meshing ,hacking (basically all cheating methods) and also make a ban for insiding because its killing the game(new tribes cant be made and megatribes dont recruit randoms) they need to do all that, then wipe all official servers and let players start again clean.

Good Afternoon! I'm SwiftHawk of the tribe, ~The Roost~. I play on a beautiful unofficial PVE cluster called Jurassic Ark. I main on Crystal Isles. I play official and unofficial. Recently I ventured to Genesis to tame a couple of the blue-eyed demons called X-yutyrannus. These guys are much stronger than my line of normal yutyrannus. The first one (140 Female) I led into a trap. She almost murdered my yuty I was riding. I saw that as proof that I for sure needed her and her 145 mate. I had to rest after taming her. My mount, Hawk, had only 1/4 of his health left. After a while I started searc

Nice! Everyone’s been up to quite a bit since I last checked. I love it, since I read the forums on days that I can’t play so I get my fill of ARK-ness. SP, Island After the death of my caving bary, I decided to take a step back. Here I am trying to start my boss army when I don’t even have proper kibble to tame anything or haven’t built the latest technology to craft more effeciently. I’ve been trying to rush my way to a broodmother army because I’m excited, but obviously having already cut some corners. SO... I’ve committed myself to starting a proper kibble fa

The past few days, I've done a lot, with both The Island and on the non-stories. For my first char, I've been running the Swamp Cave and easy underwater cave over and over. I want to get a good rex/theri saddle BP, so I can start a new boss army. I was nervous to start the easy cave, but with a basilosaurus, it's no sweat. I've gotten a LOT of loot. Some of the highlights include, a journeyman megalosaurus saddle blueprint with seventy-something armor (useless on this map, but when I make it to Aberration, it'll be amazingly helpful), a journeyman compound bow, a mastercraft longneck blue

SP, The Island Bear with me here. My gameplay had been riddled with heartbreaking loss lately. After a dino death it’s hard to stay positive in order to fix whatever just happened. In my last episode, I explained how I was levelling my caving bary while looking for my first basilo to tame. I spent quite a few days doing this without any real drama. Betty (the bary) had gotten pretty strong and I was starting to feel really good about caving with her after the basilo was found. We would get overburdened with good resources/loot, ditch it onto the argy nearby and go out for more advent

Spotted a 150 griffin. Built a fatdog trap and got him. Pelted him with arrows and nearly killed him, had to whip up a sleeping bag and dump my gear and let him eat me. I had brought an ovis in a cryopod, so got a perfect tame. 224 Griffin FTW, time to get him back to the base and feed him some baby allos. Leveled a bunch into melee so I could one hit the baby allos. Happened to notice my argys were just breeding away and their eggs hatch at room temp. Cool, more free XP. Nope. Unclaimed 200+ lvl argys swarmed and killed my perfect griffin. I felt like such

(Official, Extinction) Built a small base surrounded by metal spikes. Tamed a low-level stego. Lost stego to a level 90 enforcer. Got the enforcer aggroed on the spikes so that it basically killed itself. Got the BP. Pretty okay day so far, I guess. The ext character still not high enough level to become my source of owl saddles, but that's only a matter of time. Now I'm gonna log on to Valguero, feed the owl, unpod Deimos, log off, check on the bases on Scorched Earth and Crystal Isles, and then back to Valguero. (Official, Crystal Isles) Logged on, saw that everything's fine and wy

(Official, Valguero) Logged on, took Sapphire on a meatrun (near base, in case game starts acting up again), gathered some meat without any accidents, the notification of update in 15 minutes appeared, I gathered more meat, put it into one of the troughs in the raising corner, unpodded Deimos, at 5 minutes notification went for a bit more meat and returned just in time to put it into the trough and go to the greenhouse for a log-off. Same server, after the update: took Sapphire for her first ever metal run, got a lot. A. Lot. She can carry 3000 weight now, so I got a bit over 2000 anky-re
