  1. I played years back but just on single player and local splitscreen. Due to living out in the middle of nowhere with very poor internet (data capped, slow, etc). Just recently we've been bumped into the 21st century (Yay!) with Fibre internet. So bare with me here as I am new to all of this. I am not tech savvy and really trying to learn. Practically lived under a rock all this time. I've googled my brains out and don't understand what little I find or don't find anything relevant to my search. I DO NOT want to rent a server. It's just me and my BF playing mostly (maybe a friend or 2 sometime) and as you can imagine we HATE the tether!!! I want to set up my own little server but am a bit lost with all that. I don't know if I can use a PC tower with our consoles (a PS4 Pro & a PS5). Or if we need/have to stick with another console to run as the server. I have tried to look into this but it's driving me crazy, some say you can use a PC tower with consoles others say you can't, so I'm lost there. I've seen mention of specific software to run, not sure which for what. I do know that the console server would need PS+. I've got my current PS4 Pro & PS5 set as my primary, so they both run off the 1 PS+ account. I can't do another PS+ sub. I need as cheap as possible and hopefully easy. I need details, remember this is all new to me please. *ASE obviously A little sidenote: I lost everything last year (house and furbabies) due to fire. Money is tight! I'm still cleaning up, reacquiring and rebuilding. And I use my game time to escape my reality and try to not think about things. We've also recently played Non-Dedicated Local/Host, but it has the tether as well. Thank you in advance
  2. Been exploring the Rag desert since its release last week. Hadn't experienced any of the SE weather/effects, Jerboa signals for an electrical storm but it turns out to be just rain (I know Rag isn't suppose to get the effects on the generators and such) & yesterday finally experienced the sandstorm. Decided to make a base out of the lost city ruins. Found a 150 female Iguanodon, 150 female Hyaenodon & 150 female Daeodon... which was needed.
  3. Lately, I've just been testing/using Aberration stuff on Rag and redoing some things (i.e. instead of elevators replacing some with ziplines, added plant z to the garden). And working on tree & cliff platform builds too. Finished my big barn (that I've put off forever) the other day... 1st story for my Equus, Thyla's, Ravagers and the same sized creatures; the 2nd story for my Yuty's, Bary, RollRat and the same sized creatures; the 3rd story is for small to regular sized flyers and the roof is for the Wyverns and Rock Drake. Outside is a "pasture" for my aberrant Ovis and Shinehorns.
  4. I wouldn't worry too much about it. I just tried downloading it on my Android yesterday & couldn't. And from some of the comments here (didn't know this thread existed) it needs a lot of work still, even in the feedback at the Play Store people were saying they were having issues with it.

    Aberration

    Think I need the chupacabra in my life (call my project car the Chupacabra).
  6. After searching off and on for awhile now I finally found a couple of Otters today. Snagged me up a high level female (+130) & sadly a low level male (+20), will have to keep an eye out for a high level male. They are pretty darn cute! Seen my 1st Rock Golems today as well. And found a +190 Ice Wyvern egg. Other than that worked on tweaking my settings to raise some Wyverns, using the really low level eggs I had as tests. These resulting Wyverns will be taken out and set on aggressive (& probably unclaim) in the future. Oh and also seen/realized how funny we look running with a GPS in hand (3rd person view)... laughed harder than I probably should have . They should rework that. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ PS4-Ragnarok-Single Player (offline)
  7. Well since the last time I posted (can't remember when that was) I have been up to a lot I suppose. My wandering Equus (7 of them- 1 male, 6 females) kept having babies in their decently sized pasture. I whittled them down and I also now know what a dying baby horse sounds like . Got it down to 3 (1 male, 2 females) and STILL KEPT having babies! Multiple times a day (SP settings), so set them to not wander so I could actually play for awhile. Spawned in the TEK atv to see what that was like... HATED IT! So slow, handling is really poor and it takes up a tamed slot to boot. So I tried killing it... tried to have my Rex chomp on it= no damage then took it out to some wild Allos and let them chomp on it= no damage, by now I am getting frustrated so I pull out the shotgun and shoot it multiple times= no damage! DILO?! I then take it out to the ocean and try to drown it (I mean it does have a health bar after all)= nothing but is now stuck. I am getting desperate at this point, I've wasted more time on this damn thing and just want it gone already. I then decide I am going to spawn in a rocket launcher and 1 rocket. I fire the rpg and IT STILL doesn't die!! So I spawn in 10 rpg's, fire 2 and finally the damn thing blows up! Tamed up a few more sheep (have 9 now), they are just so easy to tame! Painted some of my base/barn. And tamed a 135 Daeodon (which was really needed in the soon-to-be future). I decided to see what a Wyvern egg run was all about (lol) since I haven't even dared to attempt it yet (remember SP here). So I took my ridiculously stated (spawned in the beginning of the game) fire Wyvern (lvl 802, half a million in health, super OP). Anyways, went into the scar (Ragnarok) and seen TONS of Wyverns, had quite a few aerial battles happen. Then went in to snatch an egg, had my Wyvern set on follow but didn't realize how small the nooks were where the nests are... he fell out and flapped like mad right outside the nook so I whistled him to unfollow and he goes over and lands if the f**king lava and just sits there. I had to maneuver my way down and then run all the way over to him but by then he was all bloody. Checked his health and he only has 900hp left. Take him home and I swap him out for my lvl 92 Griffin, he came back bloody too but not from lava. Luckily I have a Daeodon! That pig ate me out of house and home healing up my Wyvern and Griffin. Ended up with an almost full fridge full of Wyvern eggs (47/48) from lvl 4 to lvl 190.
  8. ^^^^ PS4/Single Player/Ragnarok (offline physical disc) Well after starting over again last week after getting my PS4 back & all up-to-date, I finally was able to ascend (using commands, had tried before but nothing I had found worked at the time) the other day. I am now on the Ragnarok map and starting over again (3rd time now). And have finally found Equus and Ovis, which I hadn't been able to find since the BIG update my PS4 got last week. And also stumbled across the Unicorn. Tamed up the Unicorn and a few Equus already. Also stumbled across a Griffin, tamed he/she up too (wish they had a gender lol). And of course, I summoned a Wyvern as soon as I got on the map... so have him too (can't go without a Wyvern seriously, best/fastest way to explore a new map). And working on a nice fence for the critters and a barn for all the Equus I plan on having/getting. Oh and who knew that Ovis are so funny to ride and bounce around on! Trying to keep an eye out for some really high level Equus, so far everything has been no higher than 40. I also plan on getting some Hyenea's, Daeod's, of course some Dimorph's (can't go without those little buggers) & probably a Yuty sometime.... man, my 600 tame limit is going to come sooner rather than later Just really enjoying the Rag map right now- love how diverse it is & the size of it!
  9. PS4 Singleplayer The Island (offline-physical disc) Got my console back from my parents place after a huge update (20 gigs of content I've been missing out on) late yesterday evening. I have had/decided to start all over, so I scoured the map for a place to build and also to see what new dinos/creatures I could spy. Died a couple of times lol once flying through the Redwoods on my summoned Wyvern (quickest way to search) only to get knocked off and killed by a Thylacoleo... never seen it coming lol. Ended up settling on my old place where I had built before the restart... just NE of the Hidden Lake. Set up a few things- mainly just foundations for my base, lockers and food troughs. Then went out looking for more dinos/creatures lol very happy to see so much more variety and quite a few more nasties out there. Planning on getting an Argent soon, hunt down Equus and start breeding... and who knows what else I might bring home
  10. Can someone please tell me if the day 1 release 1.0 version physical disc (PS4, SP, no internet) has all of the pre-release DLC's (equus/unicorn, ovis, otter, etc)? I have looked/searched everywhere online for an answer and have looked in game as well. TIA
