    Again, aquatic dinos get shafted. Has there even been any new aquatic tames added since the game was first released?

    It is, in my humble opinion, perhaps the most missed opportunity when it comes Ark that the oceans and waterways are relatively devoid of any reason to visit when compared to the land. Pretty much every resource you need can be found much easier on land, and defensive/offensive aquatic creatures lack more use because people don't have as much to attack or defend in the water. One of my biggest hopes for ASA is that they make the water more interesting (the visual glow-up will help, but it needs more than that imo). Once that's done (if it gets done) I think there would be more of a reason to add to the aquatic menagerie.

    For the aberration vote I believe it would be cool for to like and add the alien-like prehistoric creatures like for example some like the Hallucigenia which was a strange worm that walked and have spikes. I just want the creature we choose for the vote fit the theme of aberration.

    It would be very fitting for such a creepy and dark biome to have some creature from the Cambrian. Imagine swimming through the waters of Aberration atop an overgrown, monstrous Anomalocaris 😯

    I prefer dinosaurs to fantasy and modern animals, but at the same time I'm tired of seeing more and more big theropods with microscopic differences between them.

    Definitely want to see more permian and ice age stuff though. The buffalo and giraffe were high on my list, as was the gorgonopsid.

    That's a good point. It's kind of getting to the point where a lot of the "end game" creatures seem more-or-less like slight variations of each other. I think the Charcharodontosarus would've worked well for a Giganotosaurus TLC, for example. Dinosaurs are still definitely the highlight of the game, tho. It would really help to just have more herbivores added, I think. I was really hoping that the Titanoceratops would win a few votes back for this reason. But like you said, some other prehistoric beasties like creatures from the Cenozoic and Permian would be great as well.

    No, the vote wasn't rigged lmao. This seems to be quite a popular notion amongst those that don't get their way, but what actual proof do you have?

    To be fair, even if they aren't beat for beat the same there's several creatures in game that are at least reasonably similar to their real world counterparts. Utahs (if you ignore the broken wrists), dire wolves, thylas, rhinos, bears, megalodons, sarcs, the list goes on. They'd do about what you'd expect the real things to do. Then they go balls to the wall and make things like araneos who spit silk (yes I know there's a species of spider that does this but at araneo's size they'd realistically just over power their prey and like modern bird spiders the sheer force of the bite and fang size would kill it before the venom had a chance to), deinonychus scaling sheer cliffs, and tropeos with the jaw power to grind hard objects to their base components. Wildcard's jumping the shark so hard it's kissing the stratosphere with some of their creatures.

    I do agree that many of Ark's creatures are at least fairly similar to their real life counterparts, and there are certainly many that go absolutely crazy, but I think that is definitely to Ark's benefit! I think many creatures would begin to feel a bit redundant if we didn't have the wacky stuff.

    Literally just a beefier concavenator with extra steps lol.

    Still a big fan. I was hoping for more paleo accuracy, but that's wishful thinking when it comes to ARK.

    Yeah I would say that accuracy is not really necessary in any of these designs, as it is stated in lore that all the Ark's creatures are different species from the genera we know irl. Tyrannosaurs Dominion, Triceratops Styrak, and Utahraptor Prime are all species that never existed.

    When are we going to get an update on Survuval of the Fittest on console, it seems like since not alot of people are talking about it, the devs are equally uninvested and are focusing mainly on small bugs occurring in official servers. After being delayed for the second time it was supposed to be released this week and not only has it not been released, we haven’t gotten any announcements all week about this. If it’s not ready say so, all we want is updates on the scenario. 

    I think they said it's supposed to be coming out next week now :)
