Community Crunch 355: ARK Roadmap, EVO Event, and More!
CosmicSkeleton replied to StudioWildcard's topic in Announcements
Man, wildcard really just sat back and assumed everyone on official was a mindless consumer who'd shell out money for a product they already own but prettier and thank them for deleting nearly a decade of hard work. You guys vastly, and I do mean VASTLY overestimate the value of this game if you think that'll fly for all but the most diehard braindead ark stans. What next, rhyniognatha will be exclusive to ASA? -
Community Crunch 354: EVO Event and Community Corner!

They probably won't bother this close to the end. Our poor raptors must suffer unto eternity -
It seems to vary from person to person. I never have issues with crashing during transfers, play or bosses. However for some godforsaken reason recently I've been crashing every time I exit to the main menu. Wildcard needs to iron out its primary issues rather than doing the gaming equivalent of putting a broken transmission in a new car

Also a valid point to bring up. Unless everyone conspired together to make each fossil have the same skeletal features down to minute details and then when through the painstaking process of making sure all of them got jumbled differently to make it look authentic it would be hard to believe that each one is fake. Maybe a handful are forgeries or piecemeal, but all of them? I don't see it.

That's the trouble with paleontology. We have so little to work with; so few intact specimens, so many eons of evolutionary shifts yet undiscovered, so much land to cover, fossils swallowed or simply tossed about by the depths of an ever rising and falling sea and crushed to shale beneath its weight and tides. The land issue is particularly troublesome since spots containing fossils could very well have been uprooted and destroyed for the march of civilization. Who knows how much we've lost because farmer brown needed more land for crops or big daddy gubmint decided that some random patch of land would be the perfect spot to pave a new road that'll just be filled with potholes within the year because the ground was never stable enough for it.

You're using quotations but I need a link to a source dude. As an aside convergent evolution is a thing. Animals evolve similar features all the time despite not actually being related. Take for example anteaters and pangolins, two entirely different animals from entirely different ecosystems who's only connection is that they're both in class mammalia. In spite of they they've both evolved forelimbs and tongues designed for digging up ant/termite mounds to devour the occupants. Feathers may not necessarily be a sign that one became another, they may just be something that came about because for one reason or another they made the animal with them more successful and thus got passed on to future generations.

Pretty sure most fossils that come out of china at this point are either real and end up in some rich dudes private collection or fake and reconstructed out of multiple different fossils or materials. That aside weren't maniraptorians one of the few groups that we knew had species that were feathered?

I feel like breedable dungs would be a nightmare for at least the first few days if folks happen to have left opposite gendered pairs out since they have to be set to wander to make fertilizer. Just imagine the endless cycle of mating cool downs or babies if the egg temp fell within the ambient temperature range of your map.
