    <----Agree. It's been superheat! lightning storm! sandstorm! superheat! sandstorm! (3 superheats in less than two in-game days my first day on the server even). There's challenging, and there's can't leave your adobe box until your health fully regens and then cross your fingers and pray you can walk 500 meters from your box to harvest some stuff before the next superheat hits.

    I'll be happy to make my desert armor, as soon as I can find ANY metal that doesn't require me being able to fly to the top of a mesa to do so. Can't get any starter metal at all, not the tiny pittance you can normally get from harvesting normal rocks, no round river rocks in the water...nothing. Can't get even just the measly 10 raw I need to make 5 ingots to make the smithy I need TO make the desert armor ;...;

    Which frankly it SHOULD be against coc. Those notes are meant for all players to collect/get XP from and deliberately stopping everyone but yourself/your tribe should be classed as griefing the same as people deliberately building traps on spawn points to catch/kill new players spawning in is. At least on PVE servers. I understand on PVP anything goes (which is why I avoid them like the plague), but that comes with the cost of dealing with different flavors of D-baggery all it's own. >_>;

    Having survived 6+ years on official island pve...this sounds like business as usual sadly. Like SgtChop said, that kind of toxic BS isn't as bad when there's a lot of different maps to spread players around in, but the whole 'pillar 90% of the map' has always happened on official and WC almost never does anything about it *unless* you can prove someone is deliberately trying to block you into your base. In those cases I've seen them remove pillars or if someone's deliberately pillared resources/important dino spawn points, but someone pillaring so they can claim a huge swath of land? Chances are good they won't do a thing. 'First come first served' and all that. It's why I haven't stepped a foot on official servers this go-round (if you even *can* get onto an official server), and I'm sticking to unofficial/single player. Most good unofficial servers have rules in place about that kind of selfish stupidity and actually enforce it.

    Happy a sauropod won but REALLY wish they'd give the maevia the charchar treatment since it's come in second twice now.
  6. margifish
    Drat...it was so close The Yi was my second choice, but REALLY hoping since it's been so popular we might get the charcha treatment and get it added eventually as a freebie.
  7. margifish
    Aw, really hoping maevia would win but the Yi Qi was my second choice. Here's hoping since it did so well they might consider giving it the charcha treatment later on.
  8. margifish
    Woot, just did my vote with Maevia at the top. Here's hoping the fluffy spooder will prevail ❤️

    Ab has glowtails, bulbdogs, featherlights, otters *and* shinehorns...a creature being cute is not disruptive for Ab.

    If you want to know the lore of the game without waiting for the animated series (which looks like it's going to change a few things anyway), I highly recommend watching NeddytheNoodle's ark lore videos/survivor stories series on youtube, so far he's done island-scorched earth-Aberration (he covers all the explorer notes on all three maps with in-game sets/players and voice acting.
  11. margifish
    Okay, as someone who as a rule doesn't like spiders this thing is awesome and would be perfect for Ab (and other maps).
  12. margifish
    At this point like the charchar they should just give us the Gorgonops as a freebie.

    Feel free to go vote in one of the numerous mega-carnivore/PVP- based creature threads then, instead of coming in here to whine and troll about a creature a lot of other PVE/RP players WOULD love to see added.
  14. margifish
    *points at Therizino...an herbivore who can indeed harvest corpses* Should be more that can though. Ah well, congrats to the winner. At least the moa beat the beetle though >_>

    And what's wrong with an oversized dodo? Seriously...one of the few things I wish they could import from ark mobile is the ability to breed different sized dodos >_>; Maybe a lot of us (and there ARE a lot of us who like this creature, going by how many people have voted for it) are just happy that someone's suggested a creature that ISN'T just "giant meat-eating dino #354", and would be an interesting creature that would make pve'ers/breeders/rp'ers/builders etc happy instead of just catering to the PVP crowd with another 'destroy my enemies!' creature. We have less than 10 birds across all maps, how many dinosaurs (especially carnivores) do we have?
  16. margifish
    Who wants to bet the people crying 'useless creatures' are pvp'ers? >_> Heaven forbid pve players get a creature tailored for them. Anyway, awesome idea! Another suggestion is to add sand on to the reduced carry weight materials since it's so essential to the map (and so freaking heavy when you're making/building adobe!)

    Except in the updated post they said the point of putting all the work into ASA instead of just porting over the switch version into ASE was so they could have an evergreen version of Ark 1 for YEARS to come...meaning they're making ASA so people who have no interest in buying Ark 2 will stay there (and still give them money via future DLCs).
  18. margifish
    Newsflash...different people play games for different reasons and enjoy different things even if they play the same game. My experience is PVP is full of toxic bullies who stroke their ego and compensate for their real life insecurities by stomping on beginning or weaker players who have zero chance of fighting back. I don't need that kind of toxicity and stress so I play PVE. I play the game because I enjoy designing bases and taming/breeding dinos. Ark is a stress relief for me. Also...it might have been PVP dominated at the beginning but the majority of the playerbase is now PVE.
  19. margifish
    Some of us have zero interest in Ark 2 and will be perfectly happily sticking to ASA..
  20. margifish
    Sheesh...some people need to work on their math and reading comprehension skills. Does it suck that ASE official servers are getting shut down? Sure, but they weren't going to run forever. They've given a date and all of us will be able to take the save data and continue in hosted servers if we HAVE to maintain our original collections/bases. I have over 11,000 hours on Official PVE over 5 years and I've made my peace with it. My main issue with the original announcement was being forced to buy Ark 2 (which frankly from the game play changes they've mentioned including the 'dark souls combat' I have zero interest in) if I wanted to play ASA. Not to mention the original plan was pay $50 bucks THEN pay another $20 for scorched, Ab and extinction and then ANOTHER $20 for Gen 1 and 2. $60 for ALL the maps in a game I *know* I'll enjoy that's going to run and have content added to for years is a fair deal to me. It's not just 'the same game' with a new coat of paint if they're making changes to it beyond graphical updates. If you're still mad you're not getting essentially a new game with all the maps for free, take your save data and move to a private server.
  21. margifish
    Yeah, they're not going to do that. It's not just the graphical upgrades, they're making gameplay changes and adding entirely new events and it's going to exist concurrently with Ark 2 for years to come (basically ASA is going to be for the people who just don't like the gameplay direction Ark 2 is being taken in...dark souls combat, etc..and want to stay with original Ark). So it's literally a fresh start on a new version of Ark 1. Letting people bring their level 100+ character with all the engrams (which, engrams may well be changed/added for ASA since they already mentioned new items like smaller tek teleporters) wouldn't be fair to someone who buys ASA having never played the game before. And I say that as someone who's been playing on official PVE for over 6 years. Ironically due to auto decay I lost my entire dino collection and bases, so ironically the servers being shut down doesn't hurt nearly as bad as it would otherwise. At this point a fresh start sounds nice.

    'non canon' maps means Ragnarok, Center, Valguero, Crystal Isles, Lost Island and Fjordur.
  23. margifish
    See. I'm the opposite, I hope they feel generous and give us the runner up and/or three anyway. More creatures the merrier and for those of us who are disappointed/not enthused by a giant bug it would be awesome.
