Yeah, and I don't even get all that though. I mean, I guess apparently only the first 2 episodes are available on the streaming platforms right now? I've seen all 6 episodes and the trailer for the second 6.

All the villains are not men. There is 1 villain whom I feel is worse than Nerva, and almost as bad as Rockwell, and she is a woman. Gladiatrix. Now, she is also white, but what should that matter? I'm sure that more diverse villains will come along as the story progresses.

And there will be white male heroes in the story as well. Kor The Prophet for example will be shown in the second 6 episodes and I'm pretty sure he's a good guy. Even right now, there is a male hero in the first 6 episodes whom I feel is on par with Li Mei Yin; John Dahkeya.

This story is by no means one-sided in any aspect of it.

Helena's mom being a protester? That's an important aspect of the overall story for Helena's character as it shows how Helena's mom was a pillar for her to look to for strength, support, and as a role-model; so, when it shows that her mom dies of cancer in the flashbacks you see the devastation that it inflicts upon Helena which builds upon her established characteristic of being nervous and uncertain in her original life and how she overcomes this aspect of herself upon the Ark.

Helena being a lesbian? Sure, I can see the issue, but they don't beat you over the head with this aspect of the story. Her relationship is just there; it's just something that's there; they don't force it in your face like some other stories have done. You could imagine that Victoria is a small, skinny, feminine looking guy named Victor and you wouldn't even notice.

I even saw a video where someone was complaining that Helena was "Woke" because she didn't kill and eat the Dodo in the beginning which meant she was vegan. First, why would her being vegan be a problem? Second, literally in the second episode she asks Li Mei Yin to teach her how to skin and cook an otter. Helena is clearly not a vegan.

Nothing, aside from Helena being a lesbian, that people are complaining about is even a thing let alone a thing to complain about. 

I guess these individuals just want to be mad and stay mad at wildcard and snail games?🤷‍♂️

Which I completely understand due to their conduct over the last year and a half. Even I don't want to think about how much I wish the Gigantoraptor and trains were coming to A.S.E. as well because they look so cool.

But what people need to remember is that Ark The Animated Series doesn't even have anything to do with wildcard or snail games aside from the fact that it is based on Ark the video game. wc and sg put absolutely no money into its production and had absolutely no hand in its production. It was supposedly completely funded by and directed by Jeremy himself separated from wc and sg. So you can't judge the tv series based upon wc and sg's actions cause they had nothing to do with it. 

The fact that Jeremy had the guts to have them eat an otter is hilarious on its own.

They threw us a bone once before when they did with desmodus' abilities (granted most of the abilities that were suggested that made it in were common sense things one would expect from a bat like echolocation) so I can sorta kinda see where some people may have expected some things to be introduced. However after dinopithecus was introduced in the very beginning people really should know by now not to expect things to make it in from a suggestion.

Yeah, Desmodus abilities were a no-brainer.

Sky Giga would destroy balancing a lot more than it already is.

From what I'm able to tell based on the info in the dossier, Rhyniognatha's going to most likely not have the following features the original suggestion had for it;

- It won't be able to swim underwater and fly
- It won't be immune to tuso grabs, nor will it be ignored by aquatic creatures
- Can't roar to temporarily immobilize creatures when not holding something
- Can't carry aquatic tames
- Can't carry two medium-sized creatures or one large-sized creature
- Can't inflict bleed with jaws
- Can't push back several enemies at once w/ its legs
- Doesn't produce light, and the glue doesn't act as a substitute to sap/honey/ambergris
- Possibly no motorcycle saddle

Reminder: You vote for the creature itself not for the abilities.

helena was portrayed as astrailian ....its gonna be weird if they change her now like why?? 

Australian doesn't mean white, you know that right?

Australian is a nationality not an ethnicity.

Fr they need to stop with the woke crap.

Ok, tell me:

1. Why do you have a problem with people who are gay? If you have a problem with a gay couple in media then you should have a problem with straight couples.

2. Interracial couples? Look around, those are common as hell

3. Nerva is Roman, you expect a Roman to not be misogynistic? The dude would hate Rockwell for not being Roman

4. These people are managing to survive in an environment where a heckin dragon exists, pretty much everyone is a strong character.

No ETA on the next update yet but I am hopeful it will either be October or November.

Can't believe I am gonna have to start all over again just to take advantage of cutscenes and narrated explorer notes.

So, basically Playstation players mean nothing at all,this is what I'm hearing from this

You want Discord on Playstation? Talk to Sony.

Yo, Ark devs. More people remember Alan Tudyk from Firefly than from Rogue One.

Can you guys please update unicorns to have actual color zones? We want our rainbow-colored unicorns

Also, can you put the breeding cooldown timer on the pod UI, or at least some sort of indicator that a podded female tame is on cooldown? It's always aggravating to be unpodding lines of creatures to breed only to find that they're still on cooldown, because there's no way to tell without unpodding. On that note, can you add an indicator to the taming UI that a passive tame is ready to be fed again? The first bite takes forever to wear off so they can be fed again; it'd be nice to be able to tell, even it it's something as simple as the icon blinking/flashing to indicate the creature is hungry again

You know you can take paint and paint the horn yourself right? At least I think you can.

I'm using Norton. I figure it's showing that way because it's *new* but, I still don't like taking chances so I'll be waiting for now.

Doesn't Norton freak out over everything though?

Thats my point, the details literally say, as long as its feet touch bottom it wont be slowed down.  Every creature in the game moves at full speed as long as its feet touch bottom.  Someone said it might be referencing that it can sink to bottom and charge, but that skill wasnt really detailed at all.  The way the crunch puts it just suggests it doesn't lose speed running through water as long as its feet touch the bottom...Which every creature already does lol

It said it's movement is barely slowed in deep water. That's probably meaning its swim speed.

How? this was submitted by someone in this community, and voted for by people in this community. Then there's the fact that in 2015 the Onyc (a non-tameable giant bat) was added to Ark , which is surprisingly before 2017  ,when conan was released.

Onyc is tameable

Why does it keep referencing the pigs water speed?  Water never effects anyones speed "as long as feet touch bottom".

If feet can touch the bottom then it isn't deep water.

Why does this look like something David Peters would create?

Yes, we have enough carnivores, but dynamic creatures are in short supply. The carchara is the first, although kind of a baryonix clone, and the monkey (actually a baboon) is a dynamic gun wielding monkey, like the mantis but… a gun monkey. Let’s get both ark devs #both

Calling a baboon a monkey is still correct though.

I'd love to see Pliosaurus funkei aka Predator X. It's the larges Mosasuar ever discovered, so i thought it could act as the Giga of the ocean, being absolty massive, really strong, really rare, and stupidly difficult to tame. I know the Mosa is said to be the giga of the sea, but, lets face it, it is much closer to the power level of a rex. https://scitechdaily.com/predator-x-officially-named-pliosaurus-funkei/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pliosaurus#Pliosaurus_funkei

 

I am sorry but did you just fricking call Pliosaurus funkei a Mosasaur?

Pliosaurs like Liopleurodon and Pliosaurus funkei are short necked plesiosaurs. Yes, Pliosaurus funkei is related to that long necked plesiosaur that it is biting the neck of.

Nigersaurus taqueti would be a fun sauropod to add. It's lawnmower mouth could give it the ability to harvest more fiber and berries. It is a small sauropod like Amargasaurus.

For anyone who thinks the name is a joke:

6 questions? you telling me with 12 million people buying this game there are only 6 questions an answers to post! tell ya what get me on the community crunch livestream lets talk ark for real! instead of all this nonsence 

Good luck answering all 12 million questions mate.

I would love to be able to transfer titans to the Island or Scorched Earth or Ragnarok, or The Center on singleplayer.

Not a dino but at least a creature inspired by a real one ! Finally something interesting for Extinction ! 

Well technically if it is a bird it is a dinosaur.

That is either a giant owl or a giant harpy eagle type thing.

A titan but by looks I would call it a Minotaur or something like that lol.

Styrac likes to flip the ever living poop out when put on a trike. Same goes for the bionic trike skin and even bionic raptor for the raptors and this is on Xbox One.

For real. They said by spring. We're nearing summer. They have one more month to keep the statement true. I'll bet the money I have saved that it will be late summer or fall before we get it... I don't even know if we'll get a mysterious mysteries until fall.

I hate to be pesimistic, Wildcard, but this is what you have led your community to expect. You've dissapointed us overall. Please get a new chief of publication or something so we have honest and realistic release dates or maybe work harder. I do believe you work hard on this but this is very stupid planning. Please be more definitive and please come out with more info soon!

I really am bored of ark. Stopped playing it for a few weeks now. I do single player but after 2 mins of gameplay I ask myself, "why? What's new? What have I not done that I can enjoy?" and then I turn the game off. There are other games which are worth more of my time. I'm sorry. I do look forward to the new DLC but realistically, I have no faith in your predictions.

Good by... don't have a much more fitting closing I guess.

Watch them reveal Extinction at E3 which is the tail end of spring. It is still spring though lol.
