and someone built a greenhouse directly on a spawn location
and locked it, so im stuck in this thing
is there a self kill command?
i dont think so but u can try to suicide by eating poop
Sadly, you don’t
ark
Damn thats sad. I guess I can play on unofficial servers but theres none with level 600 dinos lmaoo
is there two different types of desmodus flying bcoz i latched onto a wall and he started flying differently
Can someone help me with my cluster. Ive tried for a while now but for someone reason my cluster wont allow me to transfer between servers the cluster id is the same. I dont know what to do can anyone help.
idk if itll work the same but i just use the ghost command and then rejoin to get rid of it
in a multiplayer lobby?
Is there any mod support in this discord? None of the mods on my server will unlock and I can't figure out why.
no
what exactly do you mean by that?
you can just cheat walk to get out of ghost, thought you'd want to know
I have mods on my server but the engrams aren't learnable. So I was wondering if someone knew how to get them to work.
you can do cheat hurtme 1000 to kill yourself instantly
ohh ty, thats a lot more convenient
engrams are quite complicated, what mod is giving you trouble?
np
Mainly Pretty much all of them. It's S+, Awesome Spyglass, Dino storage v2. anything that adds engrams to the server.
Guys some1 can help me?
huh, and none of them are learnable?
depends on the issue
I cant join any server cuz this os searching 4ever in official
Nope, I click on them and it flashes but it doesn't learn it
afraid i don't know much about ps4 servers, try #bobs-with-probs
tried mindwiping?
is this for everyone, or just you?
Whats this bobs with probs
I have not I'll try that. It's for everyone on the server
dedicated help channel, less activity so it's more likely that someone who knows their stuff will actually see it.
Still nothing even after mindwipe
hm. is it self-hosted, or using a paid host? and is it your server, or someone else's?
It's on gamehostings.co paid VPS. and it's my server
how much control do they give you over things like the game save?
can you make a backup?
Complete control. It's a VPS so I can do anything with it. I don't really know how to make a backup with a VPS
It's basically a extra pc that I can remote connect to
perfect. you'll want to just copy-paste the whole "Saved" folder somewhere else in case what i'm about to suggest goes horribly wrong.
Alrighty can do
that's the folder in ShooterGame named "Saved", not any other ones
Alright done
nice. now, i recommend taking note of all the mods you have enabled on the server. follow the instructions for a full mod reinstall in #bobs-with-probs, and put the new files on your server
make sure the old ones are gone. this might not work, but it's best to get it out of the way
instructions are pinned
Anyone wanna duo up or start a tribe, i wanna Get back into ark i have around 400 hours
there's a recruitment channel that'll make it easier for people to see that in the bulletin board section of the server. can't link it directly because i don't have the ps role
does anybody know how to fix the bug where the pickaxe engram isnt learned?
could someone explain breeding to me please? i dont get how stats change after breeding, could i also get 2 imprinted parents, get their kids imprinted and then follow that chain until i get overpowered dinos?
ptera is faster on avg and is better for combat
tapejara is more of a early game cargo bird which can also strafe mid air (also used for taming quetzals in singleplayer)
tapejara have a big fat fin on their head
head shape, ability to lach to things, and color regons, plus the saddle has three seats.
Breeding Answers - Extreme TL;DR Edition:
Dino Stats - Dino stats are broken up into two main categories: Base stats, and leveled stats (terminology may vary). Both are based on a point system, where each stat has x amount of points. These are then taken by the game and translated into the big numbers that you see. A rex with 10 points in hp would not have 10 hp, it would have something like 1247 hp.
Base stats are the ones that are actually inherited by children. The game chooses randomly between the stat of one parent and the stat of another, and assigns it to the child. Leveled stats are not given to children.
Imprinting - This is a buff that goes to the individual dinos. Not inherited.
Mutations = Basically, there's a random chance for the stat that's inherited from a parent to increase by 2 upon a mutation. This is how you increase strength across generations.
not done with that but hope it answers your question
so i cant just like
Which map is the beat for fur armor blueprints from beacon drops
breed stronger and stronger dinos together for a ridiculously strong dino
i cant do that?
gotta stack mutations for that
highly recommend looking at SeeShell Gaming's breeding guide (the long one)
i have 2 theris rn (lvl 207 fem and lvl 298 male) can i just breed them over and over and then their kids to get superpowered theris
or one of the other hundreds of breeding guides
harder than that.
its more complicated than that.
watch rampy's 100 days raptor video.
he explans alot of mutation and breeding stuff.
the “just raptors” video?
yeah.
beating the game with just raptors
correct.
i don't recommend that video personally
especially since the guy gives a very skewed view of how mutations work and how strong your dinos can get
he uses boosted stats, so all of his tames are way stronger than what's normally possible
well that does not change the breeding idea.
ill find the time for you.
The basic principle doesn't change, but wouldn't you agree more accuracy is better?
How can i get the admin bar to pop up on pc?
skip to 5:53
true, but i watch syntac's breed guide twice and did not understand it.
and he exlpaned stuff for 17 minutes.
I thought he did a good job, but there are other options. Additionally, you could refer back to it while you progress.
true.
i did not learn by a tutorial. i watched people do it on screen, instead of explaning it.
command bar?
Yeah
Tab
Its not tab
hello
Does anyone know why when i try to join my friend on Windows 10 ark it says "JOin Failed"?
Mods still aren't working

Lmao i'm breeding triceratops for my stupid idea to use them on the gamma bosses
I'm not breeding for mutations or paying attention to stats or anything, just producing triceratopses.
Due IT!!!
And in this process... One of them was born with two mutations
Bro when is tether on PlayStation gonna be removed
send them to the meat grinder
Something i've never seen ever before
You probably will need stats on trikes
Like I know it's possible, but i've just never seen it
Eh it's singleplayer
I'm mostly doing this just for the lulz, because I want the gamma trophies for the boss chibis mod
If the trikes don't work there's no great loss and I'll bring out the rexes... or mantises
They're also not like. Awful trikes. 30some levels in HP and melee. Like, not the best but with singleplayer stats and some good trike saddles I have for some reason it shouldn't be a big deal
I mean, that probably will work with sp settings
Yeah, which is why i'm doing it lol
I was just trying to make it slightly more interesting when i just want to kill the baby easy version of the bosses instead of using my extremely overqualified alpha killers for the job
Yeah I’ve had that problem a lot… make sure to check versions and wifi, and just keep trying. It’ll eventually work
We got it to work 😁
question uk on the exploere notes if theres a tick next to the dino face in the menu does that mean u have the dino
question for Windows 10 store players... Can ark be installed to an external hard drive and successfully be played from?
I play on steam yet my son plays xbox so to play with him i need to have the win10 store version installed yet do not have enough space
... and once let me try this again:
Which map provides the best chances of getting a fur armor blueprint from the drops?
Anybody playing on Xbox
You should be able to add it to an external, though it's going to be slower.
Probably Ragnarok or Fjordur, they are the coldest maps
Ci wouldn't even rate 8th on coolest maps lol
Center is okay, fjordur is great. Ci is a buggy mess with wierd meshes
The island art of the strong cave I bet give some good blue prints.
Center is an underrated map
I’ve never gotten past metal stage in it so yeah.
Ya know, I wonder what the word record for most hours on ark is?
well if its actual legit hours maybe 15k, but alot of people do just afk on the game and some people have like 50k
I bet it’s more.
honestly sea droops
is there a way to find ark pvp servers that recently wiped?
hey anyone play on ps4 whos good at ark and wants to play
I may be taking my boss trike idea too far
I'm sacrificing baby rexes to them to get them leveled
I’m pretty new to ark and need someone to teach me the ways of ark
I mean you can always breed more rexes.
It’s not hard to learn.
I just watched a ton of YouTube.
Anyone wanna play im new and trying to learn
nova im in the same situation i mean like i know how to do somethings but i cant play by myself i need some one who knows exactly what there doingn
guys i play single player
and there isnt any giga or carcha on my server
is it normal?
just kill stuff in its spawn area for it to spawn
did it twice
me and my friend cleaned 2 mountains 2 times
What map are you playing on?
They spawn in the snow
i looked for them
i spent 2 hours cleaning and searching
is there any command that will tell me if there are but not show me where?
Have you done a Dino wipe?
whats that
You are playing single player right?
Oh k.
ty for helping btw
So go into the command bar and type “destroywilddinos”
what will it do?
That should eliminate all the wild creatures on the map and clean the spawns.
hmm
Is there a way to get giant bee honey on extinc?
I don’t know if the command I sent you is right though.
do i need to rejoin or sum
or will it lag spike
Yeah, lol.
the only exceptions are creatures that are knocked out or being passive tamed
Yeah they all respawn after a couple of minutes.
Barryonyx
depends on preference and the cave in question
overall
@mossy vapor look up the command the one I sent might not be right.
it’s correct
i dont want to do it rn cuz my friend would get mad cuz he noted some spawns
he is asleep rn
Oh, k.
ah, then don’t dino wipe until you tame all the things you need to
So there are high level Dino’s you don’t want to get rid of.
i mean my friend want to tame a 120 megatherium but i dont see its point cuz we have high lvl rexes
do you need behemoth stone gates to trap a trex
No.
rexes are so slow you can just outrun them
fr
what for tho
broodmommy
arent megatheriums those good dinos for broodmothee
Caves and broodmother.
the anteater things
is that a boss?
yes
no its a plant
bro im new
megatheriums have a particular hatred of bugs
dang
i dont even have 20 hours
when a megatherium kills a bug it gets a buff that makes it basically unkillable
75% damage reduction and 25% damage buff
dang
megatherium gets something like a 150% buff after killing a bug
super useful and super scary if its wild
still i wanna tame a carcha but my friend wants a giga
carchar better
ikr
And that paired with a yuty against brood mother is easy.
another thing you might want to look into getting is therizinos
Yeah.
we alr got 2 but they kinda mid
oh yall mean for bosses
You want theris for dragon and harvesting.
rexes are good and all but against the dragon and it’s lightskin stare they’re gonna get toasted
we wont be into the bosses so soon
we need to upgrade the base and do the breeding and taming
yeee. megas are the only creatures that dont need a massisve mutation line to beat a beta boss. I beat beta brood with a random handful of bred and imprinted megas (the parents were both 140s)
Theris are very strong at high levels
raw lvls or after tamed lvls
Theris sadly need a lot of work to be boss ready. Their HP holds them back mainly
You don't need a massive mutation line to beat the higher tier bosses although yes they do help. Saddles are the main thing you want
heck megatheriums might even be able to blitz an alpha boss without mutations if you can get them leveled enough
Both
I used prim saddles lol
Well there's your problem
Me too but not beta, I beat gamma and the max damage one of my Mega’s took is 3000 damage.
Primitive Saddles aren't a whole lot better than sending them in naked
only 3 megas and the yuti survived. I got the win tho
Even the strongest dinosaurs are going to fold very quickly if you don't give them good saddles
They can very easily be the difference between taking hundreds of damage a hit and six
fr but the ascendat blueprint saddles are expensive as hell
alpha brood definitely doesn’t mess around
Think of the costs as a goal rather than a barrier
lol
that’s probably the worst part of boss grinding, affording the saddles
Also if you're always Gathering resources you need for saddles you're going to find that you need less time to harvest them
You don’t need ascendant though.
Never throw away any hide
i alr have ascendant blueprints
And if you see a big beefy boy with a lot of skin take him out if at all possible
for megatheriums etc
luckily for the bosses on extinction you won’t need good saddles since your tames will get one tapped regardless :D
Lol ya
luckily i play on the island cuz my friend doesnt have enough space for a dlc
Lol
I've been enjoying the Genesis Maps quite a bit
*is
Fjordur
fjordur is good yes
yes fjordur lol
but center is criminally underrated
Gen 2 is also good for beginners
They play around with The ark formula and offer a different experience/priorities
as a begginner i like risking on hard maps
Oh I see.
is way more fun
I agree
I don't know if I would agree that Genesis 2 is a good beginner map
I would say scorched earth but you don’t have any dlcs
Aberration
like for me the starting is fun as hell cuz everything is dangerous
Like sure you get the free tech suit whatever
But the game assumes you know what you're doing with it and does not pull any punches
I mean you start with a tek suit.
gen 2 is way too easy
ab and se are the best maps
scorched is harder than aberration, change my mind
I could disagree with ab but se is good.
guys i got a question
Yes…
Loads of dangerous predators even in the green zone, the missions are often very challenging, pretty much all of the Apex tames can dismount you, Rockwell's proliferation...
why dont people just take gigas or carchas on boss fights?
because you can’t
You can't get them in there
why not
there are limits
There is a limit to how big the creatures you can take into the boss fights are
Drag Weight
You cant
dang
Some modded servers allow it.
some slimeball dragged me into the water when i bluescreened and took all my stuff
Gigas are far above the Drag weight most boss fights will allow
shi
It's also probably even if you could not a super great idea
Either by adjusting the max drag weight or by allowing something like Soul Balls to be used.
That’s why you lock your door.
the limit for most boss fights is 560 drag weight, gigas have a drag weight of 950
i have that happen before it sucks
I can't think of anything I would like a whole lot less in a broodmother fight then my team's getting angry and turning on me
dang so carchas are not allowed for same reason?
yes
is it possible for me to get it back?
... also I don't want to think about trying to arrange 20 gigas on the obelisk
so those 2 are just solo dinos
depends on that person who took your stuff
Do you know who killed you?
no
there is one saving grace for having a carchar on the island
Gigas/carchars are overworld mounts
i blue screened and saw my naked body in the water
they can be used to blitz one of the hardest caves in the game
They're good for PVP and PVE outside of the boss arenas
And on extinction you can use them against those bosses because they show up in the Overworld
guys 1 more question should i try out ark survival of the fittest? i watched some on yt and it seems fun as hell
dinosaur fortnite
I still havent used the characa a lot. my only charca is level 30
Good luck figuring out how to keep them from drowning
It’s fun but unbalanced sometimes.
you can, but why would you go through the trouble of doing that?
time for the o2 giga line to shine
what do u mean
Because it's funny
titanosaurs are in sotf
You can but need megachelon
so who tames it wins the game or what?
People running around on low tier Dino’s killing you riding a giga, yeah.
and megachelons are among the most annoying things to tame ever
I hate they put the flamethrower in sotf. its way over powered
if they know how to use it yes
how could they kill u if u have a giga
game isnt balanced
You're not Invincible while riding a mount
dinos in sotf are a bit different compared to normal ark
Comp bow, flame arrows, etc
People can shoot you off your tame
thylas are broken op with their bleed
bite run away, win
But deodon is realy good in sotf.
the most health I’ve seen a creature have in sotf was maybe 6k
Because food does not exist.
ok il try sotf
Probably around 100 baby T. rexes lost their lives
But the incredibly stupid trike army has been leveled
if you had a mod like kbd I would be quaking in my boots
that mod makes trikes monsters
they’re bigger and hit way harder
KBD has become my favorite mod
Don’t you just love it when people try to make ark realistic?
it’s a marvel to behold, the hunted does it best
Yeah
I love the hunted mod. but it does work on my favorite maps
where a herd of trikes can easily mow down a giga
That’s why In my opinion the hunted is unbearable to play.
guys i feel like my ark single player will end when i will die at the point i cant get the loot back and i would just leave it
I like the idea of egg stealing and dinos starting as level 1
That’s what they all say.
you can only get things via egg and everything is willing to murder you to protect their babies like any parent would?
But ark player always some how hop back on the game
dang
strongest drug
It’s just way more grindy than actuall ark.
I don't know if I would agree that the hunted is more realistic
Everything is a bit too murdery for actual animals
I think the fact that those eggs you steal start at level 1 tells you that it's trying to be a "difficult" mod more than a "realistic" one
Well do we truly know what dinosaurs were like?
you’re a human, what could you do to a giant prehistoric killing machine?
also personally all the 'realistic' mods and complaints miss the point of all the lore
evolve
ig
A lot of players don’t care about lore me being one of them.
Animals aren't kill on sight universally. Predators will hunt if they're hungry, herbivores can be assholes or they can be chill
predators kill to eat, prey kills to live
if something like a trike deems you as a threat, it will not hesitate to ram you into next week
is it possible to get my stuff back with a ticket on ark pve when some1 drowned u?
i lost connection then went to go take a shit and come back a you died screen and saw my body with no items and in the water
anyone have issues with the S+ harvester not uploading to the dedicated storage? and how to fix?
does anyone know if ark win10 can be installed to external HDD
How much torpor does a wild level 85 giga have?
anyone know if ark on windows 10 ever goes on sale?
Yeah it does
Per heart?
how often and how much?
Gotta collect giga hearts for alpha boss tributes.
….
I dont know, and I dont know. I just know it does.
I know I need giga hearts but I didn’t ask that
Its not worth taming was my point.
Unless its your first one and you are on single player and cant grind up mats for a shotgun and a trap.
Use a magnifying glass.
How many giga hearts is required for the alpha bosses?
1 for dragon alpha
Can you tame ferox on Gen 2?
yes.
Okay. For some reason it's not letting me feed it to them
if you are on a server they can be bugged as only one person can start a passive tame 
I figured it out. I was trying to passive feed it
ferox are a weird passive tame right?
haven't tamed one in a long while
they should be a lot easier on gen2. can just fly above them
Yes it is but still a pain
well since no one has a clue, if i purchase an external hard drive and if i purchase the win10 version of ark , i will report back here if ark will install and run from on external drive....
I don't see why it wouldn't
does not mean it will
it 100% should. the only thing would be longer loading times if the drive is slow
lol thanks but still not anyting confirmed
No I mean there's literally no technical reason that it wouldn't follow the rules of all digital data
because most people use internal drives. I have 3 and have had ark on 2 of them. worked just fine (both are SSDs)
like i said, if/when i attempt this, i will report back here on the progress.. i currently run steam and my son just got it for xbox so if i want to play with him , i have to install the win10 store version.. ugggg... lol
as long as it runs fast enough there is no reason it shouldn't work. internal and externals work the same. if a thumbdrive was fast enough you can run things on that as well.
My wifi is down sad
unless windows store will not allow install to custom locations...
Running on mobile data plshelp 😂
it does.
Everything in a computer does
I have multiple games on different drives.
thre we go.. thank you my pumpkin.. that is what i was looking for
Your pumpkin?? Kinda odd ngl
lol.. have you never experienced something that doesnt?
i totally pictured as that is how you look 😛
all white girl splashed and all...
I personally haven't found anything that won't install into a custom storage location is why i say that
i can understand that..
I've had things have issues with it installing in custom locations. they will install but doesn't mean they will run properly
i have thus is why I asked
Huh. Thats interesting
all the major platforms work just fine tho.
lol someone kill me if i try to do it with a 1990s external lol
im ssd till the day i die , anyore...
Hearing a hard drive spin makes me reminisce to playing on a ps3
im sure this will go over most pre 30s heads but.. if bob seger was with the silver bullet band.... does that mean he was with the coors light band? xD
Haha beer joke
Lol
😄
the bigger joke is the constant d3d hung crash errors
support actually mentioned for me to get a pc tech to look at my issue LOL.. omg... they cant fix bad code in a game
So the max lvl of a Mek blueprint is 471 right? Is there any way at all to increase the level past that when crafting it
can someone please just answer me. why the fuck is my game muted
is there a mod where it lets u passive tame some dinos that couldn't be passive tamed without the mod
LFG on small tribes im 14 with 4k hr MUST HAVE A GOOD START
Hi, do you know if we can get mythical blueprint from fishing?
Hey anybody want top Play ark
Go to Atlas discord, there is no Mythical blueprints here.
when is sotf dropping on console?
i just cleared 50gb on my pc to download it only for it to now be 70 😭
i swear the ark team just expect you buy a tb to dedicate to them
im on '' the island '' but i wanna ask can i get crystals spawning on places in the surface or only in caves and that volcano?
there are crystals on top of most of the mountains and in a lot of places around the snow biome.
easiest crystals i can think of to get is the ones in lava cave at the entrance , there is no angry dinos anywhere near that place so you can get a ton of crystals even at the lowest level possible if you have metal pick
Mountains too
can you recollect explorer notes? do they respawn? i mean , can you collect them after a long time? i have been on a server for months , i collected some explorer notes around my base because i frequent those spots to gather resources , the thing is , later in some days or weeks or smth (irl time) i stepped/stumbled upon them again and i have received the buff again but i didnt get any notify for receiving the note , it just opened and gave me the buff because my character already had the notes
please ping me with a reply for the response
They don't respawn, u can collect them at any time
ok thanks
Is crossplay between Windows and ps4 still not a thing?
No
Hi, ark inside game textures not rendering, how to fix!
Means? It’s looking like crap or not loading?
why does my ark keep crashing
cause Ark is unstable, if there’s a crash message post it in #bobs-with-probs
i screenshot it and send it there?
can’t send screenshots, crash message should copy to your clipboard when you close it
ye
delete some of it then, just send as much as you can
Okay
round 2 of the poll should start today right?
i just send it
@odd heart not loading
Any mods?
Try deleting and uninstalling primal fear
okay thanks
Hello everyone, *does anyone know about the ASM setup ? like pairing speed where do I find it ? * 🙂
Ask on the server owner’s discord
I have tried that but for asking a question about setup I was banned for 7 days because my servers run without problems, it was not their problem to tell about their installations and when I then said well thank you for the help now when I asked nicely then I was banned :/
and the last message I got from them was if I had any questions this discord could give me answers and sent me your discord
okay 🙂 but it's just the name of the settings so I can search for it
What do you mean by pairing speed?
Mating speed is normally called “Mating Interval”
I can see that it takes 2 days for rex to pair itself next time, so I would like to reduce the time on it so that it doesn't take so long
Yeah it should be MatingInterval
Think it's found under "Dino Settings" 👍 @dim panther
cool thx 😍
I use ASM pretty extensively, you can @ me if you have any more questions
Has anyone ever completed the story mode on solo?
Thank you very much, I will do that if I have more questions 🙂
150 lvl? Yes
I'm doing UT currently... for the Alpha ascension boss fight what dino did you use? Rexes?
UT means which one?
I pretty much used
Theris on Island
Rexes on Scorched
Megalos on Ab
Gigas on Extinction
Theris on Gen1
Shadowmanes on Gen2
guys 176 is max lvl when breeding?
Nope
Does anyone have any advice to make single player more enjoyable? I played splitscreen with my brother over the weekend and now I wanna play Ark more but i'm not sure I wanna go into a server with a bunch of randoms.
Can't go wrong with making things harder. If you're worried about griefers as far as servers go try joining a PVE server. It'll let you get used to playing with people and lets face it Ark is the most fun with others.
Depends on what you mean by "enjoyable"
!rates
If you're after a more hardcore experience, first thing you should probably do is actually turn singleplayer settings off. If you're after something more casual, keep them on
I do recommend cranking up a lot of the rates either way, but also depending on how much time you actually have to play and with the understanding that the game freezes when you're not playing in singleplayer. Shorter times on the various breeding durations make a lot more sense when they're not continuing to do their thing when you're offline, etc (Setting rates stack with singleplayer stuff keep in mind- 4x resources might seem reasonable without singleplayer settings but balloons to effectively 10x with SP mode on)
Where do I see when it is 4x and not?
Before you click the button to load in, that screen shows you a lot of settings and sliders
You can use those to tweak virtually every aspect of the game to your taste
For official I mean
Thanks
How long does it take rexs to grow on 10x maturation rate?
To grow click Alt+F4
Amazing
Yeah i know
Because I love waiting an hour for my game to start up
if i want to start ark with more startup parameters via steam, how to text it and separate from each other please?
Because of that beacon one of my eyes censure sometimes i dont recommended playing ark
Even vision support didnt work
-_-
Okay the stupid stuff shadowmanes allow me to do is winning me over
What type of creatures do you have defending you lol, and armor you probably won't die so easy if you have better armor and dinos
It feels so wrong to use a primarily land animal in the water caves on the island but it's working so well
They have a fish tail and fins, it can't be cheaty.
I said nothing about it being cheaty
Wrong/cheaty, sorry.
It just feels the same as if I was trying to do these caves with T. rexes
Even though I know objectively they are very good for underwater combat, which is the entire reason I brought them to the caves in the first place
There is a problem that they have land a eye I think so it's hard to get the ones I'm not riding to actually fight back
can some one show me how to craft any thing
where do I get copper ore in supreme?
Do i need to be within render distance for my dinos to be pooping unfertilized eggs? Or will they poop em eggs out even nobody is around them?
it comes from gachas
yes you need to be in render
we're on the island
ark supreme resource gachas
Isn't carchar supposed to give giga hearts now?
yes it does
if youre on a private server or SP you need to dino wipe for an updated one to spawn to get hearts from them
we're on the island
#bug-reports report that your not getting them
are you playing ark supreme?
yes
mabye the gacha clauses obliterated their spawn
good luck. That mod is hell
we know but there still is no gacha
Hi, i havent played ark before. Me and my friend thinking of playing on playstation. How is the population on console? Or is it better to be on PC?
doesn't really matter where you play for population.
steam has mods which makes it more spread out tho.
it is better on pc and you can play with controuler on pc
@gentle stump can you help me?
if you are playing officials then it doesn't matter where you play the differences are pretty small 
unofficials except steam won't be able to have mods otherwise pretty much the same.
singleplayer/non-dedi has issues on all platforms but PC platforms get more settings to potentially fix them.
youll just need to keep killing stuff and hope one spawns in
Ah ok, in terms of hackers im guessing console will have less?
playstation should have the least amount yeah. but exploiters will still be on all platforms 
Ok cool. So me and my friend will be a duo. Can we experience this game duo throughout? And how is the solo experience?
depending if you are playing PvP or not, you should be fine for both.
we did 2 dinowypes and none spawned in
Thanks a lot 🙂 Last question, ultimate survivor edition worth it? Or just get the standard version for £15
you want the survivor addition. it gives you more maps
the DLCs are worth it imo.
Where can i get carcha or giga saddle Blueprint from? what is best place?
I'll just spawn some in
Does xbox/win10 still have arkpocalypse? Or even steam for that matter?
xbox, yes.
steam, yes.
win10 can't connect to arkpoc.
@slate widget thank you!
Holy crap 230GB 😮 is that really how big this game is? 😮
Does anyone know if in game events e.g fear evolved will continue after ark 2 is released??
WC has stated multiple times that those events are finished. The New Years event was the last one.
WC could probably change their mind, but that'd be on them to let us know.
Are there mods to import them onto your servers?
as in my game/not public
Assets should still be in the game now. You should be able to just activate them using the appropriate methods.
I'm still using Wonderland on my Steam cluster because i'm too lazy to turn it off 🤣
what methods?
However you'd activate them normally. I use Ark Server Manager for my Steam servers so it's just a dropdown menu for me.
if you just play singplayer is it impossible then
There's a way to do it on Singleplayer, but i'm not familiar with it. Maybe a mod or someone who is can assist more with enabling them.
ok
Might be in the "ADVANCED" tab on the settings menu before you launch the map
i think ive found something
yep its there, thx
NP! to get event color dinos and things like skeletal creatures and gacha claus, a dino wipe will be needed.
Happy hunting! 
Does playstation have aim assist with controller?
is there crossplay between playstation and steam pc ?
ark doesn’t have any aim assist as far as I’m aware
crossplay is
steam and epic
xbox and win10(gamepass/microsoft store)
playstation, switch and mobile are alone.
thanks
My sinomacrops died in pursuit of my stupid meme lol
Got stunned and instagibbed in the snow cave, could not get back in time before poor October was torn to shreds
My shadowmane pulled through though, so respect
Thanks, i'll mess around with the settings and stuff to see if it changes anything
Is it easier to learn the game by joining a tribe? Or just doing things solo from the start
I started solo and played 5k hours as a solo. Depends on how you want to learn and play
will upgrading to ue5 mean smaller file size?
we don't know what the update will do.
but console (and win10) is less than half the size as PC ark.
Hello again, I have found out that there is a cooldown on Mindwipe, do you know how to remove this ? 🙂
sure, let me find the setting
nice 🙂
Under rules -> "Allow unlimited respecs" Should be the setting i think
I'll just look 🙂 🙂
yeah, it's the "allow unlimited respecs" under the Rules section. I couldn't remember if there was another setting to remove the cooldown, but that should do it
🌻
thank you very much found it and thank you very much for the quick help 😄
Anytime!
luxury
are megachelons good for turret tanking?
Does anyone know how i can use an old save, i lost all my gear and most tames while transferring maps
Gonna beat all ark bosses in chronological order, gonna be a grind lmao.
I'm taming a 84 doedic
I've enabled it but it's still on cooldown :/
You will have to wait out to first cooldown.
okay thx 🙂
4K TREY
Top dino shop names anyone?
Anyone have carchars just disappear when transferring them from server to server in a cryo?
So... Is wildcard gonna do something about the rigged panther or???
If you haven't figured it out, there will always be something that can be abused, and they can remove it but there is always something else lol.
I love the stance of playing a fighting dinosaur game is animal abuse
. Thanks for making me laugh #trex lives matter
hopefully round 2 starts soon
cat
Does that mean that it's everyone else's problem for not rigging it themselves? Lmao ok then
Is ini Gonna be removed?so u cant chang ini?
Guys i need to know what means this about the new patch:
- Adjust transfer all cooldown to 2 seconds
It means when you click transfer all between inventories, you have to wait 2 seconds before you can press transfer all again.
Thanks, i thought that was meaning for transfering stuff between servers XD
No worries, it's probably to stop people losing items or a dupe by clicking it too quickly or something
INI i think its not gonna be removed, but replaced to the new one that you will download i the patch
So the Old inis are Not gonna work anymore?
Well, everythime that the game have a patch, probably always ithe old files are replaced by the new ones, so by replacing i mean they dont exist anymore
the old ones dont exist, they are replaced by the new ones
Hey guys im new to ark pc and i have one question
You know the shop that there is in the server ( /shop )
When server does a wipe, do we keep the points or no?
guys an adolescent wyvern still needs wyvern milk to grow up..or it can grow with meat too?
Un less im confused and probably someone more specific in software stuff
You'd likely need to ask the owner of that server or their discord
Oh they decide it?
Any wybvern need their specific food till adult
They can yes
Alright tysm for your help
bring f**** INI back
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So many people will quit wtfffffffffffffffffffffffff
I'm a volunteer for the discord only. I do not work for wildcard.

Bring INI back
what's going on with the votes?
ask the server owner then, in game chat
Refer to my comment to the other person
if it was after a recent transfer or a server save in a mission for gen2 it’s just gone
ANy idea why i cant join to nay server in official?
i am on classic and had to spawn again after update
RIP INI 🪦 🕯️
servers are updating and make sure you update as well.
I sometimes got at least the island on almost 2 or 3 mins after patch, but there is nothing there at its almost more than 5mins already
I had already updated my game
gotta wait until the servers update as well.
Inis got removed right?
that is what #patch-notes says.
.ini Settings
- GameUserSettings.ini [ServerSettings] bFilterTribeNames=True // Filters out tribe names based on the badwords/goodwords list.
- bFilterCharacterNames=True // Filters out character names based on the bad words/good words list.
- bFilterChat=true // Filters out character names based on the bad word/good words list
so if i change all these to false, nothing will get filtered at all? i dont like censorship :/
why u guys are asking for bring back ini file?
bro finally inis got removed, best update ever, it was so dumb, having to play an ugly a** game, just to get the same advantage like other players
#BestUpdateEver
Cause everyone is going to get cheats now lmfao
So we can run ark with more than 7 frames!!!
Seems that WildCard doesnt wanna have anymore Servers online with people playing, bc its braking everything now... thats perfect
fr
Well guys, I always recommended unoficials or... singleplayer. Seems that WildCard needs "new" servers for Ark 2
whats this in relation to?
Go play warframe... you can have a lot of "frames" there XD
I stopped after I got Valkyr prime
Ark 2 is coming out that's why 🤑
WildCard doesnt care anymore about Ark 1... they are focused in Ark 2 so they could do a lot of better stuff when Ark 1 was a BOOM
There is Khora Prime now 😄
Well there are already new .ini files that work
How strong do you think Alpha Vin Diesels will be?
Strong enough to pay a lot XD
Valkyr is the only REAL CAT frame I need
Khora is a just a second reject I will NEVER touch
Khora have her own Kitty Also u can have 2 kitties (a companion and Khoras best friend)
I know who Khora is
I just refuse to play her
Oh, too general

does turning these to false remove all filtering? i dont like censorship
can someone tell me good imprinting settings for rexs, magmasaurs, and rock drakes? general is full of ini complaints and stuff
whats your mature rate?
Does anyone have a list of dinos that have hidden regions?
fuck wildcar
and do you have SP settings on
give me cak my ini
45... is that too slow or fast
yes
nothing is too slow or fast, just gotta change it correctly
ok?
#bringbackini
love how every1 is too focussed on "reeeee muh ini" to answer a simple question -_-
so how do i get it to 100%?
#bringbackini
anybody else having trouble finding there severs?
change cuddle interval to 0.008 (if that doesn't work 0.01 will work for most dinos)
Anyone know how to fix the problem where you cant go o to a dlc map even tho you own it and have it downloaded?
Ok
It’s mainly rexs, but yeah hopefully that’ll work
redownload the DLC. if you are on steam sometimes they don't download correctly.
Xbox one
Hi besties
make sure its downloaded. see if you can play it on SP or servers (whichever you aren't doing)
Come to escape general chat 
don't need to, just make sure they installed. manage ark and see if its there.
They are
the 5 min slow mode is crazy
no ini but i still can aimbot ur fcking head
Oh boy they’re starting to seep into here
lmao
imagine not talking to the community about massive changes
i just have the water removed and i dont see

#Bring back the ini
fr

ajhsjahsjjas

Im watching breaking bad and watching general chat go bonkers
general has a 5 min cooldown
l the word is blocked now
Please remember to keep this channel on topic.
They blocked lnl?
yes
Typing the name*
onto a more serious matter
Yes do not type lnl it will automod xD
why does c4 one shot metal in the fjordur realms
prob counts as a 6x area
I wiped an entire metal 2x2 with 1 c4
They are silencing the media 😳
that's sad
Heckin dingus developers
thankfully, I play on playstation and probably won't be affected by this change
Same Game dieing now rip ark 1
dying*
Now compleatly dead
did they just disable inis
building i nragna dark cave is now a thing ? xD
@brittle moth English while in the main channels please, we cannot accurately translate ❤️
this is like a really late santa gift on god
frfr
not me, this helps me greatly
lol cant link announcement messages
same, I play solo and this disgusting inis always ruined my big boi spots
Hey so my game crashed, made an update and no i can‘t see servers. It says no sessions found. What can o do sgainst that
I play with 3 other people but I feel your pain
tbh they should fix mesh biting even more
ark is now officall y. Dead
no
no
play the game properly boyo
Rip to all Laptop/ midclass ark Gamers
true
other than the ones who literally deleted key elements
fr
ini is something that needed to die tho tbh
too much of an advantage in a pvp situation
i think i just make myself a script for an ini and thats it
So white screen is healthy for pvp?
what
disable light bloom lol
whats the current max lvl ?
Plant z?
205 If I remember correctly
You're worse than legally blind
you can reduce ark graphics by a lot without inis btw
you get 10 weight per skill point ? 100 + 2050 ? wow thats alot of plant z 😄
plant z is now gonna be wayy more effective
ohhh ur right
You mean abused?
guys start to increase your plant z fruit production xD
people about to be blind
xplant now also stronger...
isn't there a cd for the blind effect?
Nop
I literally might get ark on steam since they removed ini
ppl will find a new way 😛
a new way to get banned lmfao
ini work???
ofc they will can't play legit
I must be an ape then
this gives my ape self more of an edge since I have never used ini once
cheating might get fixed next watch out
call me optimistic
ok chimpanzee ini user
Type managarmr in chat on ark
While offline, get wild dinos aggrod on me?
What kind of ini? The settings too? Or just like the way the game renders stuff snd how it looks
hahahha yeah killed ark because they got rid of a cheat pretty much
Yep
play legit bob
nah if they got rid of cheats this wouldnt be a discussion
ini is gone 
idk getting rid of leaves rocks and all key elements to scout bases easier
Ayoo what is going on with INI
Ppl used it to see everywhere, and don‘t see leaves etc
is ini acutally being removed???????
Just an advantage in PvP for seeing ppl easier
everyone can do it for free i dont see why they even removed it
ahhaahah look at all these cheaters attacking me lmao, learn to play bois
already did
Partly
Why tho
Junge chill
you def main 1000x
😂 😂 😂 😂
RIP ark monthly players. removing ini is gonna ruin game
look at his role
Ini made PvP unplayable on some servers
he is a ps4 player
You guys arent thinking about people with bad pcs who need ini to play
it was good for frames
Yep
The Problem is ppl used it for advantages in PvP
Hiiiii.
Can someone maybe explain to me what INI is?
Because I hear everyone talking that it is gone but have no idea what it is xD
basically extra graphics settings
modifying game files to make the game look worse
cheating
it makes the game playable for people who know wha tthere doing and live in fat bases and raid bases
making the game play able for more people does not equal cheating

so if you are a pve bob like @thick lotus removing ini doesnt affect you
ahahah typical weak minded pvp bobs just calling names because that's all you can do
So actually only important for PvP? xD
proving my point further, ltp bro
even with a decent rig and launch setting u can run ark u dont need inis
Other games ban people for the same thing
that is false
ok mr fire enlighten me
on battle metrics your most played server is ARK: Survival Evolved BeginnerEU-PVE-Official-TheIsland427 - (v356.3) last seen 9 days ago
02:07
@thick lotus to actually being able to play when over 100 turrets are shooting and dinos are everywhere you need a good pc
ain't no way lmfaoooo
pve noob no one cares about your opinion
play unofficial and you get wipes?
not pve official, what is a wipe gonna do their lmfao
I could play ark on ps4 for years on capped bases, cmon now, yall just being delusional
R.I.P Ini
If they did this for the UE5 upgrade then it could be argued that the change was made a little early, cause it’s probably gonna be awhile till we get that upgrade but that same upgrade will probably optimize the game for bases at that size to be playable in
30fps is still very playable
without a $300+ gpu you cant play now
anyways im really happy that no one can't abuse inis now, i cplay solo better now
have fun
can tell you are really "prideful" @thick lotus
and homophobic, as expected
Just practice on the 30 fps to get use to it lol
how am i being homophobic way to label someone
these people gotta be either NPCS or ark pays them to comment here
Anyone know why my patch is 356.1 but my friend's are 355.5?
Oh I do I’m pretty neutral about the situation tho, I can see both sides of the argument
I think ini was fine until it was abused to remove leaves and stuff like that
i dont see the side of them removing it when everyone can do it with nothing
you dont need a special third part program or anything
you can just do it
Can anyone help me out, I'm trying to play with my friends but I keep getting this "Unable to query for server invite" error that I think has something to do with different versions
an update just came out about an hour ago
