    Tried playing for the first time.  Picked a low ping, PVP, official server.  Started in the easy zone.  Was swarmed by little raptor looking guys, tried to fight with fists, too many,... run, run, run into water, killed immediately by piranhas.  Respawn, rinse repeat.  Respawn, try to find more deserted area, picking up rocks, pounding some trees.  Gathered some berries.  Ate a few.  Learned to get into and out of water quickly for a drink before getting eaten by piranhas.  Swarmed by raptor guys,  dead.  Respawned, of course lost all I gathered, tried to go and collect it, raptors still there, swarmed, dead.  Respawned, decided to forget what I had gathered, really tried avoiding raptors better, managed to get some resources, build a pickaxe, start collecting flint, great,  now got pickaxe, berries, stone, flint, thatch, wood, … blindsided by raptor, killed him, start to harvest, another jumps me, kill him, start to harvest, 3 more attack, dead.  Lost everything.  Decided to quit for a while in frustration to read some more forums and watch some you tube videos on what I'm doing wrong and how to survive for longer than 5 minutes at a time and having to start over every time because it's too risky to try and recover dropped stuff.  *sigh*

    3 words... Bolas and Parachutes.

    I tried coming back to ark and grind out, but again ark shows me this game is trash. I tamed a 145 equus had it for 3 nights and when I  decide to leave the area im In and try and go to the  desert of rangnorock. A micro raptor knocks me of my tame on front of red on holds  me there for some dumbass reason I cant move and 4 terror birds kill me and my 209 tame with ease. That's how my day is

    umm... it's ARK. And microraptors are jerks with their dismount and stun effect. Yes the effect is intended. If this is official i feel kinda bad for you, since Equus takes quiet a bit of sitting there pressing E. If it's unoffical and boosted, tame another lol. EZ

    Go into SP and type in the command box; stat fps. Basically, in the right side of your screen it will display a live feed of your fps until you log out of Ark completely meaning you can use it on any of the servers you join there after.

    If your fps is too low for your liking, turn off high detail mode to increase your performance. The only real graphical difference I’ve noticed between the two modes is the shadows, and a slight render distance alteration. Truesky stays on regardless.

    Now back to the topic; on my last session, I finally restored all of my lost imprints by transferring them to my current character (I lost a lot of motivation to play after sacrificing my character for the betterment of my community - I didn’t want them to lose their progression for the sake of my character restoration). Now I no longer need to cull anything. Also searched for and found an ascendant Megalosaurus saddle BP I need for a trade ;)

    As Extinction is close by, I’m starting to build up the character I’ll be using for that server when the DLC launches. Currently working on gathering resources to build a raft, but Raptors in the early game are proving to be a challenge to bypass.

    BOLAS MANNN!!! They help sooo much early game PvP and PvE. From dimorphs to raptors and sabers.

  4. Got Supply, not complete dino wiped. Got some of those supplies back. Except for gene/industrial forge. Since we have been raided twice at the same location were taking our arge, ptera, rex, dodic, and anky, and 2 snails, over to a place close to the canyons so we can sorta "hide" and recouperate from our lossed. Our problem was we focused too much on our 2x layered terrotory wall. and we hadn't built main in metal yet (stupid mistake).

    I started in a new Rag Unofficial, and was very proud of myself. I got a good 5x5x5 stone base up, tamed 2 allos, 5 horses, and a pteradon. AND build a 12x6x9 dino pen onto the base. In 5 hours. And I started converting the main 5x5x5 base into metal.

    And when I hopped back on that night It was all gone. Were built up better now though

    since ark is being bought by hundreds of younger children, ark really needs to boost there stats. I don't mean 6x or higher, i know about ten kids at my school that bought ark ( me being one of them ). I was the only one that continued playing, they did not just quit to play another game they quit because it is so hard to start off in a new server in ark. it took some of my friends around 30 minutes to build a decent base in a server. ( running out of stamina, starving, no water, dilo, other players ) and then once you build it all you start grinding for a bit, you log of then you could come back having your base half destroyed.

    this used to drive me crazy even with a tribe.

    thanks.

    Umm, no offence dude, but its a survival game... The whole point is to die and learn from your mistakes. Especially in Ark.
