Well, If there arent any logs about it. It probably didnt go too far. It cant fly far because of STASIS. Or it glitched to 50-50, which is rare these days but it still happens... But most likely it is closer by than you think...

The Chalico could have really been better off with some kind of buff if you feed it more beer after taming. They somehow make me think about hooligans. So I always have to tame one and call it "Hooligan" or Wayne Rooney. Horseheads, Strong punching arms, Drinks beer, throws stuff, loud grunchy noises... They could use some buff that makes them riot harder depending on how much beer you feed them, throw fireworks, litter garbage everywhere they riot and maybe have police spawn in to arrest them. True story.

Hi, Does anyone know a forum about building in Ark? And with that I mean more specifically about decorative PvE construction ideas/designs? Also about functionality, no problem. Is the "Arkitect" term an actual thing? I feel the need to share my base these last days Playlist:

I dont know why this could happen. I can probably only give a bunch of farfetched concepts about what might have happened but Ill spare you those because they probably will only be confusing and too vague. Only thing that I can see as a solution now is to put up a dino leash and have the Basilos on them on a short leash. (make sure the leash prevents them from emerging from the water 100%) Also have them well fed and as idle as possible. (Action/Recovery ->stasus instant calculation -> Death) All in all this is most likely a bug, so yeah, report it. Edit: Ow yeah, did you see the bags? Their Bodies? Location/Stats? You can set Body and bodybag decay timers higher. Any indication there what might have happened?

I remember debating this to a certain level before. Did some testing and thinking back then also with Pipinghot:

I have this also, and I suppose a lot of people are bothered by this. My guess that this will help for you also. While Looking for servers, it actually doesnt stop looking for more servers when it says it cant find any. Somehow a lot of servers give a way slower response than before. Try opening up the server list, then go to the shop for a sandwich, prepare and eat the sandwich. Take a shower, then visit the shops again for a sandwich and eat this one also. Then go check if the servers are added to the list, if not look for them again, all this without closing the server list menu ofcourse...

Hi, Can anyone help me with this? I want to travel to other specific servers. Rag/Gen1/Gen2. But when opening the serverlist at a transmitter I cannot find the servers I want to travel to with my character. This prevents me to go there and reset the timers there. Any ideas? Thanks. Ok... While submitting this and bugreport, some actually popped up. Seems like it just takes an abnormal long time with specific servers...

Yes, I tamed one just to get a somewhat low level. Cloned a lvl 65 one I think... 38k shards... So I imagen lvl 75-85 being the max level to clone on official...

Yes I think thats very much wished for by a lot of people. Ive seen a decent amount of people supporting that concept. Even though the mayority maybe doesnt want that, I think its for the best to have the mutation "limit" working properly, or at least with something like softcaps or something also working on melee output or whatever... The word "limited" doesnt very much appeal to me though. Softcaps might be better. Like with the farming mechanic... Either way, limited evolution wouldnt get microbes to mutate over time to get as big as Gigas.... And... its Survival Ascended, so dont stop at the limit... Work with softcaps or something please...

The only weird thing about the specific moments of decay (days in game) is that the STONE gates only autodecayed like 2 hours after the Stryders. This means that after the 8 day timer for the Stryders went 0, for 4 days, nobody went there to initiate a log for the auto-decay. Only then, right in between a gap of 2-3 hours before your stone gates would decay, someone was there to initiate the decay log for the Stryders. Then 2-3 hours later, someone went there again and the decay for the stone-gateways initiated... This is weird, I would say. But not impossible... But I could be wrong. It could also mean that you only get the log linked to that specific moment of decay, when you log in. Like with babies starving etc. So you didnt log for 4 days after your stryders would have already autodecayed, and then logged back on 2-3 hours later to get the log for your stone gates to have been autodecayed. If you would have checked logs and saw the camera autodecayed (Or the stryders), I would have been going there right away, because you would know that would have indicated something was up with the timers... Edit: Doesnt make much sense after I thought about it... Also weird is that for all that playtime, a time-span of 60 in-game days, you didnt die, cryo, tame, upload anything, claim a baby or something else to have popped up in the logs? Maybe keep an eye on the logs also...

Yes, the update is not just a bug-dino added. I bet they added strings and loops and codes to all the creatures that can consume the pheromone and handle codes of the Rhynio and its inpregnating and the offspring etc, animations for popping the Juvenile Rhynio etc. Im no scripter, but this sounds to me like a lot of sense...

No problem... It is a sad day... I never had anything like this happen to me with structures auto-decaying though. But I am very secure with resetting. I always wait untill everything is loaded. And also let the game load in big bases around what I am trying to reset. After that I always wait for server to save, before I log out. I did got bothered by a glitch where you just tame an animal and then when you go to get it, it just autodecays. The system has flaws for sure! Try your luck submitting a ticket. Maybe the GameMasters (GMs) will be easy on you these last few days and give a bunch of them back. https://support.survivetheark.com/hc/en-us/requests/new 1. -> In-game Issues 2. -> Creature problem 3. -> Creature restoration

What server? Official? Decay timers can be adjusted... You fly by the structures and Stryders, thinking you resetted timers. Server crashed, reroll -> timers never resetted. Some other kind of rubberbanding could have prevented timers resetting properly... Strange thing though is that they should have had decayed at more seperatly and different moments in time... But they decayed pretty fast after eachother. Camera at Day 15474, Stryders at day 15553, and finally STONE gates at day 15555. Maybe your server has little players that could trigger this, or your stuff was very remote... 1 ingame day is about 1 hour I think... This log is not a strange outcome of reality if the stuff wasnt resetted properly...

I really think the spawnrate is actually PERFECT. I mean its an unique spawn and it is also in a somewhat accesible area for starters. Besides that on PvE, you can trap it and share it! (Even though collecting male juice is a prerequisite for sharing the female as a balloonfactory) Having one with an actual rare spawnrate feels like a triumph. The "rare" spawnrate of the gigas is utter nonsence. If it was like the giga spawnrate, we all would have ended up with dozens of them already! How rare do you want it, no I want everything! Give me more bleeh! Greedy childlike-people like this ruin the game... Also the mechanic behind getting decent level offspring makes find really high levels somewhat pointless... AND BESIDES THAT ! I already have 2 and didnt even try that hard, and I also gave 1 Pheromone away to someone else because I already had 3. So I could have ended up with even more. Maybe whining kids should have had a lower spawnrate on this planet 0.o

Yes, this one is a real pain. I dont play that much on Aberration, even though I spended a fair amount of time there.. Onyl ever seen like 5-6 of them 0.o... The Alpha Reaper is recognizable before it merges from below the ground. But the Alpha Basilisk isnt. Though, there are a lot of them (more than you think) in the Hall of the Reapers and generally the Reaper zones and the blue zones with the shiny water. Also Portal always has a spawn and around the fertile lakes there could be a bunch. Maybe change strategy: When you see one, with the tentacles, hop off, and see if its an alpha when it digs itself up. Then just go on with your trip when its not an alpha. I think they have a pretty big chance to just despawn when you leave their render area. This isnt certain, but I think its a lot bigger then with normal spawns above ground. So you dont have to fight and kill everytime its not an alpha. Also, it might just be that if an Alpha is somewhere on the map, it doesnt spawn a new one. So instead of trying to force an alpha spawn in the same region, try looking where the active alpha spawn is... If so, then again, dont fight everytime you see a normal one. Leave it be and rush further along the map, looking for another basilisk location.

As regarding, the General Discussions isnt the site to go to... Not really. Not that this shouldnt get reported. That is the most important step. But sometimes to get an idea of what is actually going on, and get a better report to aid devs, its good to adress others who have experienced similar stuff. And maybe to get temporary fixes. Above that, the General Discussions gets more people to take a look at it even though it could get moved to the Bug-Sections of the forum. Maybe this can be a general Rhyniognatah bugs and glitches threat... As I wonder what happened during my Pregnancy... I started healing my inpregnated Giga, with 0 levels and mutations in HP at 20%, 30% ish occasionally with the snow owl. I didnt bother checking the hp drops and outcome of this drop. I had other things to tend to during that playtime... But at 20% ish I stared to doubt a good outcome with the hp-drop, against the incubation-timer. So I started to quite fanaticly heal the Giga. When the HP dropped below 10k. (33kish Max HP) with now still 40 minutes on the timer! I started to worry greatly. It started to drop like 100hp per second so I started to heal it intensively. When checking hp-drops I saw it drop from 10k to 8k hp in seconds with 35minutes left on the timer! I started to freak out, ended up throwing 5 Daedons out switching them, to heal the Giga without seemingly much effect... Maniacly healing it with snow own, trying to minimize wasted seconds inbetween heals. I could barely keep the Gigas HP stable... In the end I was able to keep it alive before the incubating time was over, but the last 30 minutes I had to Freeze/Switch Daedons/Freeze/Grab meat/Freeze and so on... Anyone else had this? Or am I doing something wrong?

No sorry, im talking about raising. I over-generalized the word...

Encountered 4 of them. And Im raising one on official atm. Got to it today. Its all not that hard if you are endgame. If you are not... This can be a really, really hard tame... (and raise!)

You are sure this is the right forum for this? This seems to me its some kind of sofware issue. When you go ingame, it might switch channels or something. Try looking into Windows Sound settings and see if Windows sets Ark sound on the desired output...

You dont really need to eat... Just upload and redownload yourself to restore your food levels... Or, die and respawn...

Overwritten characters' bodies arent despawned if they are not dead and active somewhere on the map. Your only chance on official is to find your old body and either save it from dying... Or kill it and obtain the implant. (Maybe admins can find that body and look at the implant for you, so maybe its best to not kill it if the body is save eg in your base) The serial number on the implant is REALLY important. Save the implant, or look for older implants of your lost character and make sure you have proof that you belong to a certain tribe. Ask admins to restore your character and/or help you rejoin your old tribe... Chances are big either with or without any kind of help, your character is lost. So make sure you at least get back into your tribe...

Hi

Dont forget that Fjordur is a free Dlc, you can TP, and it has a SpaceCave also. and i think there are bulbdogs in there... Only thing is on Fjordur it isnt really your "guide" thats Tping you, raher just your own ability. AND... I think the most important part of the riddle is "But you really dont have a choice" The meaning of that may be the key

Oh, its definitly not a new game But slight chances can have HUGE impact on overall experience. As for me, my first 3-4k hours were on official hardcore mode... Its like single player without singleplayer setting... Try defeating Dragon solo that way and all... ( Iplayed pretty much solo) And struggles with whatever wildlife are a walk in the park now. Just yesterday, I ended up without my Basilo (In front of the Brute cave) on the bottom of the ocean (It decided to just swim off) while I was attacked by an alpha Megalodon and a Dunkle and a swarm of mantas. I dont know how, but I just managed to get on land and survived. Its the little movement to the left and right at specific times to dodge attacks that somehow now go automaticly... I know now what to do in whatever situation and what my best options are. Like a wild Giga encounter? I just, for example find high ground, whistle my dinos passive into one direction and run into other direction and parachute over other wildlife or trees. Point is, most of us have maybe even 10k hours into this game. There is this 10k rule for mastering expertises. I think it counts for a lot of us. No way most of us wil be baffled by whatever chances they add/make to make it anywhere near a new game... But yeah, im looking forward to ASA. Im not discouraged by the starting fresh and all. Ark seemingly is the right game for me... I bothered looking for another game for the long run, but only games I ended up at where eg. Monster Hunter. But it lacks so much personallyfication (Is that a word in English? Edit: Personification) that id rather wait for Ark2. Though my fear is that Ark2 will actuallly be a lot like... Monster Hunter A lot of games have pretty much the same "content" available for everyone. If you look at other's Garages for example in GTA, in the end its all the same stuff in the same building everyone has. In Ark your base, your dinos can be really "yours" At least thats how I feel about it... I only think there should be a different level of gamecontent added to ASA, thats going to fill up the feeling which is "Oh Ive seen it all before"

Yeah, was just going to replay to DirkInSA, but its the same for a lot of content you have gained control over time. The harsh pain of loosing everything is still something I cry about every day Seriously a bit lol. But in reality, I couldnt imagen now having no skiff neither, what about the leash or (for PvP) Ammobox or the fixsave for crowded servers (ocean)platforms or ... Ok, in a nutshell, there is so much content thats limited to "future" dlcs that are really gamechanging... Every gamechanging thing from the past eg. Wyverns. Are now out of the question again... You either like it or dont. I I bet high money that a lot of people will not like it and rather play Ark1.0 again... Though there might be a chance the breeding will be all that less interesting, when they fix the mutation limiting as I have heard of i believe... So there wouldnt be lines of houndreds of babys to force mutations into offspring and all... Getting the 100% imprint, and mixing a few good lines up should be doable without maewings, right? But... If there is any chance they can speed up things, they should add Fjordur or Lost Island to the dlcs, if they would even ever... I would hate waiting for a lot of contect also, even though I like going "oldschool"
