There is no tldr. This is mainly for the developers. Let me preface this by saying, The concept is brilliant. When the game works, its FUN. The other 80% of the time? Not so much. About me. Started playing games back when the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy came in an awesome box that got packaged with pocket fluff. Ive worked as a QA tester and helped in the design process for a Marvel licensed game that never saw the light of day. I would like to think I have some experience in the industry. I am new to ark. A result of recent push in their latest marketing efforts. Ac

The poll is unanswerable by me as the third question requires an answer that includes a loss. I have never experienced a loss of character or engrams. I transfer several times a week between 4 servers.

So, it seems to me that Wildcard is just going to ignore the fact that they have thousands of PAYING customers they've left hanging on a Gen 2 map that is so broken, half-finished, and 100% favorable to PC players. I have a Xbox One X. Just a few things: - Literally over 100 server crashes since launch on my official pve server. More than 50 rollbacks. And those are just when I've been on the game. I do sleep too. - Slide and Glide starts 10 seconds into the race. Either add 10 seconds to the total time, or, here's an idea, add more time to the race prep countdown so that EVERYONE ca

That is your problem right there. Don't cook your meat. They will eat twice as much cooked because it is less nutritious.

https://nypost.com/2021/04/16/scientists-discover-new-dinosaur-and-it-is-adorable/ Newly discovered Pterosaur found in China! Looks like a flying squirrel or bat mixed with a salamander. Lives in trees (perfect for a jungle map), uniquely covered in "pycnofibers," which isn't fur or feathers, nocturnal insectivore. Gameplay-wise, I think it could give a buff that provides night vision. Or, like the crow in MarniiMods Wildlife, a buff to increase rarity in loot crates found. However it's gameplay advantages are decided, we can never have enough cute creatures in Ark. Wo

Latifrons Diet: Herbivore Temperament: generally docile except during the rut, and when approached by large carnivores, whereon males become extremely aggressive Size: females generally weigh between 1,800 and 2,700 lbs with a horn span of roughly 72 inches Males weigh from 2,200 to almost 5000 lbs, with a horn span of up to 90 inches Wild: These large herbivores can be found in the plains and mountains of many of arks. Roaming in herds or family groups of up to 20 animals they have almost nothing to fear from predators. The females of th

no more boring traditional theropods! no more giga clones rise up Dinopithicus fans! this is our chance to make a real change and add some diversity to ark! we will not take theropod oppression anymore!! rise up! Dinopithicus we can do this!!!! team Dinopithicus!!!

I'm not suggesting that you "did it wrong", per se, coming to these forums to get help and information from other players is exactly what the forums are for. I'm glad that you came to the forums and I hope that whatever information other people gave you was useful. My only point is that it's not statistics. If you scroll up and look at Joeblow's answer he's saying the same thing I am, he just wrapped his message inside of some friendly sarcasm. "Help" "information" "ideas" "input" "anecdotes" "stories" "personal experiences"... and so on. There are lots of ways to described what you

I voted for the cera cause I honestly feel the same way, too many new mammals. Wanna see more big bad boiz

I'm also hoping an actual dino is going to win too, I'm tired of all the mammals being added, and unfortunately so far a dumb baboon is in the lead If that ugly thing wins I'm not even playing the new map. The Carchardontosaurus is in 2nd though so I'm hoping more people will vote that one! We need something in-between the Rex and giga in my opinion, not more small creatures that ill never use.

Nope. Im logged in and verified and on firefox but cant vote have no vote button. Saddly. Edit: Now they changed the format and finally the vote works. Hurray #NoMonkeyPlz

There will be no EVO event this weekend.

Different people doing different things, no need to stop production and have some groups doing nothing. Might as well be working a new map while others address the bugs (ex. art and map design does not equal programming). As for the votes, these are gone from the forums. I am hoping that with 10 finalists all people kinda go for an actual dinosaur, but that is me. I am really disappointed with the top 4 creatures, I may need to mod them out to have an actual "lost island". We will see, I rather wait for the results and cry after. LOL. Hurray for mods and additional creatures!

'eventually'

I'm fine with whatever wins as long as we don't get that useless shoulder mount which we know will just get nerfed and not be as useful as people think it will be. For those saying Carcha keep in mind we already have Rexes,Gigas,Allos,Carno,Spinos,Megalasaurus and Dein, so what's unique about it besides being another boss dino or a rex replacement?

I hope this map can make for the big lost of players in gen 2

Lmao. Wouldn't be the only bug that's been in the game for YEARS.

I havnt been hit with that yet but my hatchery room is nearly obsolete. It made me sad till I realized I can hatch my 40+ stacked mutant creatures enmass when I no longer need to cherry pick the sole mutation out of a pile of hundreds of eggs. It's given me two lines of ember crystal wyverns each with 15+ mutations, only 5 more rounds of "is this the stat I want" before the final breeding pair are born.

I just tried Bulbdog Fetch and it's impossible! The megalosaurs that spawn have 58,000HP, hit like a giga and are completely unstoppable. Even if you had OP gigas that can kill them, you'd end up killing all the dinos that you need to tranq.

2 weeks? optimistic I realy hope they have fixed the egg bug sooner...

Because monkeys are all the rage, and I really think apes and monkeys are really cool animals, Im submitting Dinopithecus as a contender for the new ARK map. Dossier was written by my good friend PartySwine. Linking a fan made dossier by DjayMasi here too, please check out his work here on DeviantArt Dinopithecus Dossier [FANMADE] by DjayMasi on DeviantArt Our custom dossier suggestion (Originally made by party Swine) Common Name: DinopithicusSpecies: Dinopithecus ingensTime: Pliocene - PleistoceneTemperament: OpportunisticWild:Dinopithecus is known for being the bane of most mid survivor

1) Ark doesn't need a new Shoulder Pet. They are worth nothing in terms of Utility and let's be honest, except the Ichty for Prime farming, if even that, nobody bothers to tame them. As much as I like solesolosouls idea, not Nexxuz, I don't think it can hold up to the competition. Though Sole seems to enjoy being boosted like that. 2) Neexuz over here does a real (I cant swear around here) move. Not only does he abuse his fanbase of little children to send them to swarm out to vote for this, he sells it as his idea. And his fans are buying it, backing him up. And he couldn't care l

What is hard is not Star Dolphin, what is hard is that many people are losing all their mission progress and a GM wont restore it , so figure that scenario. This has been like the most annoying dlc, this missions and passive tames with this huge lag are a nightmare, plus the stupid ANTI MESH destroying people on space and sending tames to another dimension , I have like a week looking for a tame in space that had my mutagen and 2 event wyverns inside, server crashed and Anti Mesh killed me, and then right in front of my base in space , in one of the big metal plat, out of the blue the hyper sp

Yeah I wasnt really expecting to beat alpha but ı will be prepared for the beta.I cant find theri saddles from drops.So my plan is to breed some more theri that has around 40k health and 600dmg with full imprint.I was kinda lazy but now ı kinda need to do it.ı will breed the megatheriums too.I will prob go for 6 megatheruim and 9 theris.ı wont add the low lvl theris tho.Thanks for the reply.Have a good day man.I wont forget Daedons and yutys too.Maybe 2 or three daedons.And one more question should ı go for gamma dragon or gamma megapithecus first

Hello, fellow survivors! This is my submission. It took a lot of effort, I hope you like it! All art, concept and designs made by me! You can also watch the art in my deviantArt! Let's start with the explanations. Now let's talk about the best part, the abilities! Those skills sound like fun, right? But Rhyniognatha is also fun (and dangerous) to encounter and fight if you find a wild one! Now the trickiest, but also the best part... They can be tamed! Now let's talk about so

Please No Tech in ark 2 PLEASE!

Cryo pods have been essential in breeding and raising babies. A similar mechanic which allows you to walk away and pick up where you left off is essential imo.

<duplicated post when topic was moved>

I like my Ark creatures the same way I like my coffee: secular.

How about a dino like a monkey that will repair your armor when you have it on your shoulders while you are walking, running, in combat, mounted on a dino, not swimming, not under water. This would be useful for pvp and pve. It is similar a Gibon Propliopithecus: lived during the Oligocene Family: Propliopithecidae Suborder: Haplorrhini Class: Mammalia > Passive - fearful > Domestication: offer him armor blueprints (good quality = better domestication efficiency) Taming takes a long time because in addition to giving him blueprints you have to be w

-Make your weight 1500-1550 (try throwing some metal ingots and picking them up) -Stand on the skiff (just stand, dont ride it) -Whistle at it to land This works EVERY time when a crash breaks a skiff. I used to have to make whole new skiffs, thankfully not anymore

oops, we'll look into that - thank you!

Final render of the upcoming steppe bison.

"I could vibe with more commotion in the ocean" StarJackalope This creature would be a beast in the ocean and among the largest creatures in the game! Its bite would deal massive damage but at a slow rate. It would also have a charge and ram function that would decimate boats and maybe apply a slow/stun. It would take cannons on a raft(which it is very good at destroying like a leed) to knock it out due to its robust skull then be tamed by feeding it tuso tentacles (credit to Boomslang81)(maybe alpha squid eyes are worth even more affinity). A sonar ability would also be really neat, mayb

I think it is a great idea as long as it does not significantly disrupt pvp or pve progression. Cosmetics, skins, emotes are totally reasonable. Importing characters, dinos, armour would be totally unreasonable.

It's the first pronunciation, but just call it the carc

I wanted to possibly give an idea out here on it’s bite attack, maybe on smaller animals that can usually be carried by Argentavis you could give it a paralyzing bite that lasts for 3 to 5 seconds. It doesn’t stack but it is a good way to stop an enemy dino or wild dino in it’s tracks, it has a 10 second cool down for the creature attacked so they have a chance to get away but while they’re stunned they can be shredded to bits by it’s claw attack. Also it would be kinda cool to see them speed up the more they run like a dire bear, they start galloping faster and once they hit a threshold of sp

There should be a way to separate the balances made to dinosaurs and game mechanics between PvE and PvP. Multiple balances have made PvE nothing but hard. Managarmr being a recent example, in PvE they're useless now thanks to the many balances made to make PvP better. Flier nerf was a huge change in PvE making fliers and transportation harder by forcing us to land since PvP was taking to the skies too often and the game tried to "ground" the fight

On Xbox Genesis1 i get on x1 Rates at Frog Alpha mission 28800 Hexagons and now i get for Alpha 4320 Hexagons at 1,5rates... For every Alpha Mission we can get max 5k Hexagons on Genesis1 now, why? Please say this is a bug and they will bring back the old Rates. Xbox official pve Genesis 1

To anybody wondering about the dino vote being steamrolled. The people running this thing actually did something smart and made it so they would compile the top 10 highest voted to pick from, instead of just saying they'd pick the winner, etc. So this thing won't get voted in on a landslide. While i do think they might consider it cause it's a dino that would fit well on the Lost Island, it won't be guaranteed, so there's no reason to flood vote anything.

I like the idea of it being a living fishing rod, but I think it would be cool if it was a semi aquatic mount used to harvest prime fish. It also could be immune to the shocking attacks or eels and jellyfish due to a skin secretion or something and thanks to it's long neck, attack them from a distance keeping them player out of harms way, or the player is outright immune to shocking damage while riding a Tanystropheus. Players could harvest the secretion from wild Tanystropheus (which gives less, but it soon produces more) or by killing them (which gives a lot more) by collecting it from livin

I can say I'm entirely on board for this! lol

Possibly, I haven’t put too much thought into it, but ark needs more mammals. Maybe the females could use your idea with the milk and beef idea. I was mostly thinking we need another strong counter to gigas, maybe a weaker version of the rhino charge, but able to charge up much faster and over shorter distance, say 6-8 foundations instead of 13. Damage reduction during the charge and when in a herd of 3-4 males, a rut boost. Makes the males extremely aggressive. Plus a stampede herd attack, when riding the alpha, the next 3 highest lvl males will join in the charge, and the combined attack ha

When will the points return to Genesis 1 ?

Might surprise some of you, but some PvE players actually like and get attached to our things and don’t view the game as a death arena.

THIS. I fully support this, but the highlighted parts of this sentence in particular (emphasis mine). I think this is a great opportunity to add layers to early and middle stages. The idea that I could CHOOSE my tech tree progression instead of just following the usual thatch->wood->stone->metal (and tek for those who want to fight bosses), using the materials & Engram points to follow different "branches" is awesome. Out of the 3 DLC, we had a new building tier only once (adobe, in SE), and it vastly depends on what map you're on. Meanwhile Prim+ is right there for the takin

its funny that people with a low post count want a wipe, and people with a high post count dont want a wipe. new players will always want a wipe, that will never change, they want to start equal with all the others. 90% of the starters only play this game for a few weeks upto a few months, and there would be more people that want a wipe because there will always be more starters then established players. this is why it is extremely hypocritical and mean to ask for a wipe because statistics say that you are not even here anymore after 3 months. some dinos like tuso mosa
