I am a big fan of ark and have been playing it since it came out on console. Ive even got to the point i watch all of the sotf matches on twitch at work. I unfortunately havent seen anything about a release of sotf to Xbox one. I saw there was a release to Playstation that had some glitches, and i know you are working on primitive plus but is it even a possibitlity that sotf will come Xbox?

-Reideger

SOTF will be coming to Xbox. You'll just have to be patient a bit longer i'm afraid.

What do we have to do to get our dossiers featured twice like some of these ones? 

I don't think dossiers are meant to be featured twice. Sometimes errors happen.

If anyone wants their Dossier to be noticed for inclusion in the Crunch if it hasn't yet then actually post a link to your dossier in the crunch thread ready for submission. That way it should guarantee that it doesn't get overlooked and should help reduce mistakes.

@DaEndGame and @GamerPerfection I do realise this : ) I was merely clarifying since you, DaEndGame had missed the text. However, thanks for your replies : ) And I was hoping that upon highlighting this mistake, the devs or someone who knew would address it and let us know whether they are cancelling it altogether or just postponing it.

The digest won't be cancelled. It may be missed on occasion if Jeremy doesn't get time to go through the questions and answer them. But if it's missed one week then hopefully it will be included in the following week.

The very first row mentions it:

 Then no questions answered nor is the lack thereof addressed, which confuses me (and possibly others).

Most logical explanation is it's a copy paste error. I suspect the majority of the post is a template as the wording rarely changes from crunch to crunch so it makes sense to copy/paste it as a template. Obviously the digest wording was accidentally left in, or in the case of a few weeks ago there was mention that the digest didn't make it so maybe this time they just forgot to mention it.

Which part is considered the digest? Are there no questions answered for this week's digest?

No Digest this week i'm afraid. Hopefully there will be one next week.

Honestly , " Be grateful " , Here's a thought , I bought this game on pc and xbox , I AM A CONSOLE GAMER. I BOUGHT A GAME ( Yeah BOUGHT/GAME, Alpha beta DMS) I well never " BE GRATEFUL " FOR SOMEONE DOING THEIR GD JOB . YES , I said it , Their J O B . At any time they can say .. TADA this is the full release, GREAT, They don't have to do a single thing . HOWEVER SO LONG AS ANYTHING GOES TO another port EVERY OTHER PORT HAD BETTER RECIEVE IT. And I know this must be REALLY HARD for you to wrap your head around , BUT RELEASE updates / w/e tf they want to call it TO EVERYONE AT THE SAME TIME. And don't give me this PR BS about bugs/ glitches , GTFOI IT IS A BETA , BUGS ARE WELCOME. BIAS can get wrecked at the door. Favoritism can go to hell , and I'll be sure to pack it in bubble wrap. GET WRECKED. CONSOLE PLAYERS PAID AND WE ARE TIRED OF GETTING CRAPPED ON AS SECOND RATE, 8 days later, pc has YET AGAIN PASSED ON BY. Looking forward to the next update , MEANWHILE console players .. left chasing behind. Oh and what is that there ?? Oh that's right TWO MORE WEEKS , While the pc players post NEW content, WE GET SHAFTED with " Dude this is 3 weeks old , Tell me something new" Oh wait  You already  GOT OUR MONEY , And we got ? Oh right again , told " PC COMES FIRST" AT NO POINT IN THE DISCLAIMER DOES IT SAY , PC GETS EVERYTHING WEEKS BEFORE YOU , Oh and , SPECIAL EVENTS, THOSE ARE FACTS , and I'm only getting started.

I strongly suggest you calm down.

You will never be grateful for someone doing their job? Really, that's how you really feel about someone doing their job? So you don't expect anyone in your life to be grateful for you doing your job (whatever it is)?

I really don't understand why so many Xbox players are crying over the fact that they don't get updates the same time as PC. I mean, you've got ARK, you can play ARK (in most cases), and you seem to treat it like it's the end of the world just because the Patch Notes haven't been updated but PC has.

Will holiday events ever come to consoles

This question is best placed in the ARK Q&A Digest: 

Just now, thestiffler said:

Why bother posting at all if you have nothing to tell us ? "well I don't know but it might work like this" helps no one

I did. First I pointed out the fact that those that have SOTF already will still be able to play, because you clearly didn't read all the information in the OP.

Then I told you that it would be silly to think that anyone that currently has the free SOTF would get SE for free, because that's a no brainer that that wouldn't happen.

I'm sorry if pointing things out to you has added to your salt levels.

right well that's interesting, a guy uninstalled it last week, or reformatted his pc and now has to buy SE to play it ? all those people who downloaded and played a few games will have it free ? but some wont ? this is a shambles I'm afraid.

You did read the last word I wrote in my post right? You understand the meaning of that word?

I get that you aren't happy with the changes, and I get that the information given isn't clear yet on how this is going to work, but you seem to be making a lot of fuss over something you don't yet understand how it is going to work.

Just now, thestiffler said:

so how does that work, everyone who has free to play sotf now has ark SE too ? its just not explained other than "its all going to be ok"

Of course they won't have SE too, that would be silly. I'm sure they will still be able to continue to access it the same way they always have, as long as they never uninstall it maybe.

Hmm interesting so now SOTF is no longer free to play what then for the people qualified for next weeks tournament who haven't bought SE ?

As we look to the future of SotF, we came to a decision: Survival of the Fittest will be brought back internally as part of the ARK: Survival Evolved package. For technical functionality it will still exist as its own application, and everyone who has thus-far played the game will continue to be able to play it without having to own ARK: Survival Evolved, but going forward it will be considered part of the ARK: Survival Evolved product group.

what about the survivor notes, are they in this?

Explorer Notes did not make it in to this Patch unfortunately.

Just now, DahDerpasaur said:

I too like the crunches, but I'd like to see what was going to happen for the future of the game in digests.

I wasn't trying to speak for others, hence why I said "think"

The thing is all you needed to do was say you would rather have a digest. Why say what you think others would want when you don't know what they want? What is important is what you want.

It's better to have had the Crunch and no Digest than not have anything at all. It's just unfortunate that Jeremy wasn't available for this weeks digest.

You're wrong. I love both the crunch and digest. They both keep the community involved.

I agree. It's annoying when others feel they should speak on behalf of other people!

ANOTHER MYSTERY?!?!? Youve done 15 of these for no point. Tell us what the dern creature is.

They've done 15 mysterious mysteries? Wow exaggeration much?

Found it! It's been in the movies!

Oh no it's a bug that i'd just want to squash! Horrible little things, although this one looks rather big!

No, but the post immediately above your post contained the answer to your question.

I've been on the forums for awhile and I've never figured out where to ask questions for the devs to answer so could someone tell me? also if its here any chance of seeing 

annunaki genesis on xbox?

Seriously!?! I've posted this already twice on this page where to ask your questions.

@Jat how would I take part in a Digest with Jeremy?

Hi @Surviv0rEv0lved, all you need to do is post any questions you have in this thread here: 

If you post your question in there then hopefully it will get answered in a future Digest.

Alpha Meganeura! HAHA!

A Horny Toad may not have a tail the length of a Thorny Devil, but Horny Toads do have tails.

God u guys need to know you're prehistoric animals

Many of the ones mentioned in here are prehistoric. You seem rather confident that you are correct and everyone else is wrong. But we'll see i guess.

Looks like a griffon vulture (Gyps fulvus)

 

Kingdom:    Animalia
Phylum:    Chordata
Class:    Aves
Order:    Accipitriformes
Family:    Accipitridae
Subfamily:    Aegypiinae
Genus:    Gyps
Species:    G. fulvus

So far, every creature in ARK (I think) is extinct. The Gyps Fulvus is still in existence and apparently growing. So not sure if it is that, unless they start introducing creatures that are still in todays world (which is not ruled out, just not happened yet).
