I mean Ark has had Cryopods for 5 years now I think it would be a pretty bad move to remove them even on Launch
I disagree, cryos have made people lazy and just sought after them as a means for fast pacing.
I think it would be a nice refresh to hold off until extinction personally
Like we relive arks progression but now in UE5?
How?
Where u gonna store ur tames
It will just be aids
Breeding and storing tames and babies
Be smarter about what you tame and breed
Its not about being lazy its about being able to actually play the game without giving up your real life just to imprint a tame and
all of that
last we heard about cryopods for asa was they are still deciding 
If we don't have cryos or Maes breeding will be aids. We have to have one or the other surely.
No cryo and you cant even have personal tames
Go Official 1x a tribe with 70 guys where will they store even their 1 Giga 1 Stego 1 Racer 1 w.e tame say just 10 of diffrent species and you got 700 tames to store somewhere
How does cryos relate to imprint? You still have to do it unless you're one of the people that sit there and cryo and uncryo it until you get it to a cuddle or simple item feeding.
Which further proves my point of laziness
Änd 1 is surely not enough for pvp and raiding
People have improved at the game and if you cant breed for tames to raid then you will also just be sitting on MASSIVE bases everywhere that cant be wiped
Not everyone will be able to stay awake 24/7 and imprint their tame its not lazyness its having a life apart from ARK
Raiding will stagnate because you wont have enough tames to even fob
So you will be left with massive bases everywhere
Then don't hatch the egg until you have time to imprint it
?
Not everyone has 8 days to raise a giga
And constantly follow up on imprint
Heck if you want make Cryos more expensive then
idc' make them cost 1 element
For all I care. But Cryos have changed the game A LOT and the game has ALSO changed a lot from 5 years ago
A giga is a terrible example when it would be the easiest to tame considering it was 8 hours between imprints and you can easily log on imprint and log off in just a couple minutes.
Let me log on when im working or at school
I could start a giga hatch at night go take nap and wake up and catch the imprint
🫡
Then maybe settle for doing something else and trade for the giga? Work around it.
Um it's a good example lol. Also without mae and you hand feeding that bish without cryos.... no waaaay
Let me bring my pocket computer with me when im working ''Sorry boss I gotta imprint my babies real quick before I begin CPR on this dying kid''
Or tribe up with people in different time zones so someone can always be there.
No, tribe up.
You can't imprint someone else's shizz my guy
yeah, thats another setting 
🤓
Ark is balanced as a tribe game not solo.
you mean ark without all the balance additions?
Your whole tribe can imprint dinos unless you put your settings on independant owners in tribe settings
IF you want cryos to be delayed make them cost 1 element and put them on lvl 120 requirement for engram since that will be Island max lvl on launch
For the early until SE or some months pass
But completely removing it until EXT is weird af
I very much doubt even if cryos aren't on launch, they would wait until ext 
That there what Pum said
Idk I have played Ark since 2015 with and without Cryopods and I know that it wouldnt work today
I can see them waiting on launch and adding them when SE releases but not waiting half a year for Ext
Its just not the same game as it was before Ext
I remember people being SHOCKED that a Bronto would get 50 Narc berries in a single swing
Now you go pick that in 20 seconds by hand
Now theres Tek and Heavies
Again because people got too comfortable with convenience of doing everything easier.
I feel that 20 seconds thing is an exaggeration
but yeah. its 4x what it used to be in 2015
Raiding with no cryos 💀
you act like qualtity of life is a bad thing lmao. if you don't want it play an unofficial where its disabled.
I played Prim+ quite a bit on a server cluster and enjoyed it
not sure where you are going with that
yeah prim+ doesn't have cryos. it doesn't have anything at the fabricator level lol
cryopod despite not using element is still technically "tek tier" 
Which is why I am really looking forward to Ark 2
ark 2 is gonna be very different. the changes we know now are huge imagine when its released 😂
Mhm
I hope its good 
I use cryos as much as the next person, I keep 2 in my hotbar when I play regular unofficial Ark cluster today one for my flyer and one for my sino
I would not be apposed to playing without them for a bit in ASA
won't matter much to me since I'll be playing unofficial with dino storage once that releases anyway 
Yes, qol improvements aren't a bad thing.
I'll be looking for unofficial that tries to be a good discord ran one trying to build a nice interactive kind of RP direction server where people set up with a direction of what they prefer to focus on and look toward the rest of the community via auction and trades for other stuff.
Had a good experience in a couple servers with ASE and I can only imagine being able to find a PvE server like that sharing 3 platforms
anyone playing ldl eu 216 and looking for a tribemate

hey you guys know how when you hold down R you teleport in ark fjordur, if you have an unmounted tame in the circle, do they teleport with you?
Pum Pum, the Ark Wiki is an approved link isn't it?
Yes they do
is there any admins here?
Are all Rhynio's hatched from tames male?
Is food the only stat worth raising in a snail?
ark
Nah, they may lag but that a side effect of an MMO.
Try having to put up with servers from a game company like 2K
WC does pretty good considering they have better servers than a multimillion dollar company like 2K
That just one example I could give others
I think I may need to bring an anky to the volcano to get the most out of each obsidian node as I can
I've never heard of using an anky for obsidian. That usually dino for metal farm.
Let me know how that goes
An anky accompanied by an argy
When the arky's inventory is full, then imma transfer the arky's obsidian and stone to the argy
So Anky does gather more than you with ascendant tools?
Sometimes when I read this chat it makes me feel like its 2015 again and everyone is a bob
I lack ascendant tools
I remember running across Center on a Anky because I didnt have anything else
Ah
Looking at the wiki, the gather rate of obsidian for an anky is four out of five stars
Whereas a metal pick is three stars
Only time I ever went to harvest obsidian was first time on Ark for the short period on official. I have never had to touch obsidian really on any unofficial server I went on.
Damn, why is that?
Personally id like like to see cryopods, i understand the reasoning of not having them but before they came out one of my criticisms of the game was having to walk dinos like rexes and whatnot around the map especially when they got stuck on rocks and trees. I could see it working with significant ai improvement tho
But i think the strongest argument for cryos is lag, i actually couldn’t play offical pve before cryos because every server i liked was dino capped
I guess for the way I play just rarely if ever needed it so I never really needed to focus to hard on farming large amounts. Metal on the other hand, I had one server where I essentially made a Treasury building with 4 floors of industrial forges and vaults just stacking metal has that was the universal currency in that server since it was kind of a Role-Play direction server cluster
Damn
someone delete a messagae
Hmm, so far no high level argys worth using my trap on
Even with cryo’s official pve regularly hits server tame cap . I couldn’t imagine the pain of having the tame dodos just to take them out when u need to tame stuff again
Found the level 95 argy. Shot it to try to get it to aggro, it started flying away. Managed to land a second hit, and it finally tranqued. Odd, I thought its torpor will already have gone away by now, but turns out it still had enough torpor to be KO'd in two shots.
Looks like persistance hunting may indeed be a thing in this game
i should really just stop ever trying to transfer a creature in any way other than trapped in a soultrap
Luckily the corrupted victim this time is just a giga that was bred to be sacrificed for rhynios
or well i guess it's not corrupted because when i got back and test downloaded it it was fine... but like. yeah. still lost a bunch of potential delicious rhynio snacks
I was wondering if the bosses for ASA like the ones for the island and scorched would get reworks with new models and abilities. Because I think it would be awesome if they did
hi yall
How do I get narcotics with an equus saddle it’s not popping
First the industrial cooker, then the kibble
It’s not letting me make narcotics in my horse
hi
im ready to find out the winner of the poll
I was looking at vote closing time, got a few days till announcement
The second round of voting ends on Monday, September 18th at 4 PM Pacific.
The winner* will be announced in the Crunch of Friday, September 22nd, 2023.
yeah
I personally am hoping for the Thylacosmilus atrox
That would be nice to have a beefy extinction based Thyla
Oh shit, another alpha carnotaurus in close proximity to my base
Hopefully two rexes and two parecers may be able to distract it long enough while I shoot it without casualties
Oh hey, a journeyman metal pick and a journeyman hide pants
I feel like I'm in dire need of an assault rifle for those situations that call for spray n pray
Like when I'm bum-rushed by a terrorbird and need it down IMMEDIATELY
Is the last new picture on #announcements an in-game one?
it's a picture from somebody who's making mod. It's not from the official staff
That's a Deinotherium, from Ark Additions
big honkin' war elephants you tame by getting them drunk after watching for them to be friendly. Good bossers
Shotgun is the best gun
Thanks
anyone wants to play ark survival ascended on release? pve though
It is, but the downtime within shots and the reload times got me killed
I'll be playing official ASA on release with my tribe and Alliance on the same server. Gonna be fun
pve?
Playing pve official only since the last 8 years
I've never played pve, how is that?
the only way to kill player is to kite dino to their base or drowning them XD
The community is less toxic and more friendly than pvp. Sharing and helping is usual.
the main issue is the pillars everywhere from the toxic chinese tribe
100%
if they made land claims and structure claims , through achievement , lets say , kill 10 mosas, you canbuild 10 more structures
sounds way more different from what i know,,,, ive only played pvp, so its just the build up and get wiped cycle but me and my tribe always make the most fun of it. we like the pvp fighting and the risk factor there is
everyone has default land andd structure , at the start
This here, the two other people I played with on official. We did manage to have some taken care of on the island and rag that I had reported to be removed.
i contacted wildcard in 2019 and they havent answered yet
still waiting
Oh man
lol, got answered twice on the 5 complain I made in 8 years
most part of the time, patience pay
darkjon u wanna play pve with me ? we can merge tribes if u want , i got like 12 people
not sure if they will all play though
We went unofficial a few weeks later and haven't touch official since. Still PvE though
We are 3 in our tribe, but not planning merging. Alliance can work tho
sure
i dont know how to breed
or do bossfights
I making an alliance for trading and cooperation threw the Ark, Hosted Discord server for the last 5 map I played
we do all of them, bossfight, trading, breeding, sharing blueprint and crafting
we all love Ark XD
oh thats perfect mind if i add u on discord?
it's fine, I send you the discord of the alliance
I got 180 narcotics to tame a lvl 7 procoptodon is that enough?? 💀
To dododex is the Holy Bible of all Ark players.
sir address the holy book proper.... The Holy Dododex
Is bringing a teame from the dead possible with commands?
As far as I know, no
Yeah, they can be a real pain
Does anyone know the chat were people ask dollie questions
Because i seen on gps youtube people asking questions about asa
Well goddammit, tried to land near a green crate to loot it, and all of a sudden a ton of trodoons, then my otter got killed (again), and a carnotaurus, and I think a dire bear. I better not lose my level 149 argy to these mobs while I try to return to it as fast as I possibly can
I just wish the ghost cheat didn't slow me down to a crawl
They spoke of it a couple of time, can be a bunch. Lastest I followed was the 24h straight from the extralife event
use fly instead for speed. can't go through walls tho
I think you can use fly then ghost for faster ghost
If you're in solo, you can use fly / walk command ... it's very fast
You mean alternating between fly and walk commands?
And yep, I'm in solo
Whoo-hoo! Flight command actually solves a huge problem I've been having! Thank you very much!
I feel like I need to kill these low level argys if I want a chance for higher level ones to spawn
Okay
aw yeah tamed me my first ceratosaurus
I'm pleased that one of these unique ark additions taming methods is actually like, fully functional. Deinotherium and acro are iffy at the best of times
Left a knocked out level 145 pteradactyl close to my base to get some prime meat, come back, and I either lost it or it's gone
What's the best way to farm hides on ab?
Pteras don't have a lot of health
Depending on where your base is, probably got eaten by a predator
Goddammit
Anywhere, really? Green zone has a lot of diplos and paracers with a lot of skin, although you can do double duty when you're farming loot on the surface and harvest reaper hides
Surely it will have dropped a bag containing the food I gave it in that case
Thanks, I thought so. I'm set up in blue and everything is chitin here lol.
Do the surface reapers drop a lot of hide? I haven't really bothered stopping to kill any yet.
...screw it, pteras are overrated anyway
I'll just focus on argys or quetzals instead
... There's a few bugs and crabs but there's plenty of creatures with skin down there
Does it appear on taming tracker?
Reapers do drop a decent amount of hide/raw meat. Bring your charge pet and a good drake/combat animal in a cryopod
I don't know what a taming tracker is
Ark ASA released October 2024?
Go into ur inventory and click the footprint at the top of the screen next to the engram button, it’s very useful
Or 2025?
This year
Will ark. Officials servers still end if ASA doesn't come out
Oh
It's blank
Wait, I think it woke up
I see that same leveled ptera (same color, same level, same gender), so I'll just bola it again
I feel like I'll need to set up big stone perimeter around my base because the amount of alpha carnotauruses that spawned close enough is concerning
...wow, my level 113 pteradactyl died to a level 10 dimorph
You weren't kidding when you said they had low health
They wake up fast
._. Dimorphs are mean little fks
Ahh, understood
After having found the ptera a second time, I'm making sure it's not leaving my sight while it's being tamed
Lol yup. Best bet is just tame a ptera best u can with normal meat, then go for Argent asap. Once you have Argent, you can easy perfect tame ptera cause that prime will be faster to get
Happy two year ark discord anniversary!
is there a recruiting page?
ty
Goddammit, terror bird swooped in out of nowhere and started attacking my ptera
Now instead of gaining 70 levels upon being tamed, it'll only gain 39
Now I'm tempted to feed it stimulants and wake it up so that I can then tranq it again and start over
So no game would exist ?
Should have put myself in front of it just so I can act like a meat shield while accompanied with my argy
It's just official. The game still exists. Only official goes bye bye
Wake it, re knock it, add spike walls around it for guard lol
Oh, too late, the ptera's already been tamed
I've recently become a huge fan of grabbing stuff with a karkinos to tame it.
It's really the stupidest thing I ever heard because what If all those official players just stop playing ark
Ya and what if pigs started flying and the oceans turned to chocolate syrup. 😂 ark players ain't going nowhere this game is worse than drugs.
To each his own opinion I guess
90% are waiting to take over the new servers so don't see them stopping anytime soon. They just see it as a new challenge
ty i didnt even realize lol
Yeah right I know heaps of people not getting ASA because we essentially have to pay for a game again that we already have
Yea buts that's Playstation. Of course Playstation gonna be full of quitters. They about to get owned by PC in cross-platform xD
And no it's a remastered version with many new features being added. So it's a better game.
I'm Xbox actually for now. For now...
No server transfer. Dinos every where because of no cryos along with devs that don't care the game is gonna be shit
If they'd hurry tf up and build mine already...
Transfer? To what map? Only map dropping is island where tf you gonna go?
(hopefully
(jk i know itll be good))
And Noone said there isn't gonna be cryos.
Isn't that the whole point of raiding other servers can be the same map
You can transfer island to island...
You seem like a snail game fan boy like they can't go no wrong
Go re read the info before you come in complaining. Read what's posted by the team not what ur told in game chat.
Boy?
the point of raiding is to get loot or establish dominance
Well there is the proof I needed. Kid can't read...
Kid lol
I think the servers are LDL on launch, so no transferring stuff or tames. Don't quote that though I'm not the most up to date on stuff.
For 30 days most likely. That's normal on new launch.
Yall act like multi character use isn't a thing..
You just act like the people behind the scenes shit don't sink
I don't see the problem with them releasing a remaster and closing down eight year old servers no, sorry.
Nah I know wildcard tends to fuck ppl don't worry. But this isn't getting fucked. It's normal on games. Years of time wasted is the players fault for thinking a game like this lasts forever. It's just a game. Noone wasted your time but you
For real. I do my fair share of dunking on wildcard but they haven't done wrong here.
I pity the people who act like they have only ever played a single save for the past 8 years.
Starting a new character every now and then is refreshing
Crossplay will make the game so much fun
They are making you buy a game again that you already own for a bit better graphics seems pretty shit to me
The witcher 3 did a ps5 remaster it was free
Thats a pretty pitiful understanding of whats being changed
How much do you think is gonna change dude
There isn't even a game play trailer or a release or a pre order and your acting like is going to be the best game ever
Witcher 3 is published by Warner Bros pretty sure they're giving cd project red a lot more funding than snail giving wildcard
Ark og is fcking spaghetti code nightmare and it lasted 8 years, thats a longer support time than most phones. Not to mention indie games.
The remaster will also provide an extension of the support, crossplay, new content, and much more. If you are too ignorant to check the announcement thats been out for the last year, you are the only one at fault here.
Confirmed there will be no pre orders.
I think ASA needs to be free for people who paid for all the dlcs, cuz the price for the dlcs is more than ASA probably will be
Agreed
No. Are you going to work for free?
Depends on what work
Are you gonna rebuild a house for free with the same specs but better material?
It looks the same needs to be free
Dude your missing the point
Make sense to you?
They are gonna release ASA and it's going to be broken
Fix the first broken game meshing etc
And? That happens when pressured to build a game fast af. But it's contract ordered by nitrado so they have no choice but to go through with this.
its more than graphics, theres new dinos and gameplay changes. a new engine allows for alot of fixes that wernt possible before
Or be sued
Well isn't that their fault you just defend every move
Cause I read and understand big business
Why would you want them to fix a game that’s getting replaced in a month?
I get it. It sucks losing progress. But hey u play pvp ur used to that I'm sure
D ick measure much
Just think of it as you got mega raided. Buck up. Wipe ur tears. And go earn it back on asa launch kk
That’s like swapping the transmission in your junker before driving it to the scrapyard
Prove they can fix a game before bringing it out again with the same issues
😂
Do you know what spaghetti code is?
Goes in dry comes out wet 😂
Yes
Means it's too broken to fix without breaking it more. A new game is NEEDED to FIX the issues at this point. Go research before you come barking orders at devs that don't even read what you say anyway
I'm not barking orders at any one
Giving an opinion that they are pretty much stealing from their loyal player base by charging them again
I think some of them do. That's why I'm trying to be nicer on here. Easy to forget it's an actual person working on this stuff when you're just filing reports or dunking in forums.
"Make it free" "fix my current game" "keep servers open"
You don’t have to buy it man
You can always just switch to fortnite
You can just keep playing the game you already payed for
Unofficial 😂
Actually I can't
Why not?
If done right, it can be turned official but takes a good amount of people working together for a mass enough cluster
Because my shit is gonna be gone soon
Mhm.
Save it and run an unofficial server. Or single player
Tru unofficial
Problem solved
I think there’s enough people that don’t wanna buy the remaster that you could find a good unofficial
Not the same when you on pvp what's the point of single player
As I said, see it as you got raided and build up like most other players are doing on Xbox. We hate what's going on too, don't get me wrong, but we move on and play because we ENJOY the game
Unofficial still a thing
But your acting like we can't have a say on it
I think most people are pretty much over it at this point. It sucked, it's over, on to the next thing.
Get enough people together willing to work and put in effort, official can be rebuilt in notime on unofficial
Kinda dumb they will let ASE this way tho
I know but when you got such a big thing in official is hard to just go over to unofficial
Never said you couldn't. Just don't spread false info like about the pods. NO DEV has said there isn't gonna be pods
You can’t post an opinion in a public place and be upset when people disagree with it
Pods? Cryos?
I'm not upset lol
Yes
Don't see why they wouldn't have em?
But you don't know that either
Unofficial has lots of fast paced servers, in sure youll get some things back
Maybe even the mod version of em at this point
Your telling me not to say there won't be cryos but your saying there will be with no proof
Literally nowhere and Noone has said there won't be pods. Most of us just laughing about the days of ASE launch when there wasn't any before extinction. It caused rumors of no pods. But doesn't mean they are not there just cause us old ppl be having Nam flashbacks of walking stegos and brontos across a map lol
They ain't gonna throw us back in the days there wasn't pods dude.
I want Rex pvp back
Holy crap you guys played all the way up to ab without pods? 😂☠️
Yeah.
It was hell
Straight up nightmare
No. The devs openly stating that they’re not sure whether pods will be available on launch is what started the rumors.
Giga raising was a job itself
But you don't know that
I try to imagine it but don't think I fully get it. Even true 1x. Yeesh.
Argys and quetz were superior before cryos
Bruh.
In pvp even more hell. You took the chance of the tame dying because of walking it back to base in the open. Can't hide a big ass bronto or Rex.
All I raised was gigas lmaoo
Was imprint 2 percent?
I know but it's unconfirmed is what I'm getting at. (Was cracking joke about ptsd flashbacks lol) he talking like it's for sure not gonna be there
It was already hell on the new rates.
It was a true 14 day raise.
Gigas were not even a thing when I started. They hadn't been added yet
Back when Argentavis looked like a sick bird that was dying..
Ya couldn't put it away if you were busy would be crazy
Of course not. But when they were it's all I raised.
What's the meta going to look like at launch?
I'm so glad it looks the way it does now. The old Argent was just ... shudder compared to this beautiful eagle lookin mf we have now
Still think they could've done a lil better on speed but
I just think their should be a gameplay trailer or something so close to when it's meant to come out
If you have seen the old argentavis or other tames, check out neebs gaming video on YouTube of island episode 1. You'll see the cringe..
I remember
I remember
Probably coming at final crunch
I'm an OG player.
I stream ark
I mean if a mod has been made for it and shown, then the game must work enough to have tested that mod?
And dayz lol
I googled it. And ya wow.
On twitch or YouTube?
YT
What's ur YouTube I'll check out ur videos
More dayz lately
I'm always watching it in the background.
my user name is our YT
OK sweet. I'll go sub n check it out. I'm always watching streamers
Thank lol
I only uploaded these days. Haven't found the time with work to stream.
It's not all gaming but we have a gaming section
Question can I get on ark unioffical servers through geforce
Yeah it's hard
We do a weekly podcast and some sports shows and gaming
Started off as a few mates having a laugh then got monetised lol
Think my YouTube is in my profile info
Thx.
Semi at work but I'll go sub now
I'm supposed to asleep. Work sneaks up on me
Happens to me daily these past few weeks. Too busy enjoying time out of work, don't wanna sleep before work xD
But they have had me on 17 hour shifts this past week... so I'm dead..
Anyone know if asa will be crossplay on release
Yes
Ah ty
yea it can bite sometimes but its life. thankfully i work 3 jobs and two are on computer so i work all 3 at once if i feel like it
My issue is my work schedule hours. Wake up go to work get off play 2 hours go to bed.
yea it makes it rought to pvp when you have little game play time. pve is casual tho, and can always do some fun pvp style amongst tribemates just for fun lol. oh and allies
That's why I stopped pvp
most unofficials, including my own, do run pvp event maps that are just for fun. like to play battleship, plinko, hungry hungry sarcos, pokemon battles, hide and seek, stuff like that. it keeps a pvp taste without the aftertaste of PTSD
I tried this method, and landing a shot on the quetzal ungrappled me from the quetzal
odd. i havent had that before.. where did it clip at on him?
Happened to me every time I’ve tried as well
Ouch
Seems like I will indeed need to set my argy to attack the quetzal and grapple from the argy while I shoot the quetzal
At least, assuming that won't also ungrapple me from the argy
test it first by having it float in the air not chasing anything and do it. fire a shot and see if it releases you. sounds like a weird bug cause i use grapples when taming thylas cause they never torpor run
and i never lost a shot when firing even when attached to my own ptera
Ahh, good idea! I should give that a try
if anything, you can tame a tapejara if you are not map jumping. you can shoot from its saddle but sadly only when its mounted on a wall.. would need another player to shoot mid air. if you map hop, go to gen2 and learn the net gun. its a massive OP life saver in taming things
where can i find the long spawn command for the rhynio? not the short one but the long one with the numbers
its nowhere on google
blueprint id?
cheat gmsummon "Rhynio_Character_BP_C" 150
or
cheat SpawnDino "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/Dinos/Rhyniognatha/Rhynio_Character_BP.Rhynio_Character_BP'" 500 0 0 150
tysm
where did u find that?
Dododex or the wiki
didnt see it on the wiki at all, didnt try dododex tho ty
Oh I'm not necessarily strictly going to stay on The Island. I just don't want to move to another ARK until I beat The Overseer
One question guys, if we buy ark ascended , will we get all dlc's or gonna be still separated? Or we do not know yet?
ArkIDs
i dont use dododex for dino codes. i forgot it gives them honestly lol. i use ArkIDs
I am starting to play Ark again after 1-2 years. Never beat the Island. The farthest progress was when exploring the south-west cave, died, and never touched the 'PLAY' button ever again, lol. Now I have start over a fresh save, made a small crafting base (1 forge & 1 smithy, lol) in the Easy zone. Should I move near the mountain, traversing would be dangerous...
Tame Thylacoleo or Baryonix and if you are careful enough you can survive every cave on the Island
Are they for cave army?
yes move closer to resources. there is some metal just to your east of the spawn point on that hill. start there and move forward slowly as you tame ur surroundings
across the water
I remember the fella Thyla, is it the one that will hop onto you from redwood, right/..
yup he just wants hugs
And they also take minimal fall damage
Thanks for advice, last time I didn't know what I was doing with random tames Dilo, hahaha
moving storage boxes
Alright, first I'm going to need to build army for travelling, right
yes. or you can go to herbivore island to start off. just build a raft and DO NOT stop mid ocean lol. no hostiles and loads of metal plus decent tames and ptera there. its a good starting point
Also argy is there
Yeah I have Ptera, but I'm still worry, sometimes when I do things on ground and get attacked, this escape plan decided to join a fight
argent isnt on herbivore island. thats carnivore island
Yeah I mixed those lol
lol its ok
I forgot what's herbivore in English
Well goddammit, the two wild beavers I had in an enclosure died before I could go ahead and try to tame them
Yet again there go the means I had to gather wood en masse
So, build bodyguard army -> find Thyla / Bary -> spelunking. Aight thank you.
I mean if you are attacked by something that can't dismount you it's okay
And if possible higher levels
get a stego if you cant get a beaver. they are good for wood. mammoth is great but that can be later
It just PANIK mode activated at that moment lol
the ground shaken, spamming E, not sure what is attacking, where it's coming from, the character screaming pain, a few seconds later a green beam of light appear
❤️ just wait. my friends in the swamp are waiting for you
I don't understand. I keep using the Infinite Stats cheat but I keep getting killed by alphas as if I didn't have it. Why is that?
12 days untill ark's servers is closed 😨
only official
its doesnt make you immune just pretty much gives you weight and stam. oxy i think too
still can die
Ahh, that's weird
Also, today I learned that the infinite stats cheat also gives me infinite ammo
oh yea that too
there are other cheats you can use to either be invincable or just not draw agro. check out ArkIDs . net for the code lines
N-no... NONONONONO
My level 157 argentavis got killed by a level 10 terrorbird
I absolutely HATE terrorbirds
Attacking my taming high level ptero
And now killing my high level argy
Just when I got excited over getting a journeyman crossbow.
This game just can't let me have nice things without taking away something EXTREMELY substantial
Could always try changing the settings if you arent happy with that
The game doesn’t let you have anything. You have to take it.
Perfect opportunity to get a better argy
First I'd need an argy to get a better argy
first chance you get, get some yutyrannus. their eggs make the best kibble in the game and they seem to drop random eggs often so its a nice island kibble farm
Find a better way to get argy
Traps
For that I'll need to make my level 119 192 ptera ride-worthy, because it can't handle my equipment
Plus the nearby mountain is only spawning low level argys
Right now I'm going to check if the mountain has spawned better argys yet (killed the low levels I saw on my last visit), but I'm trying to decide what to get rid of before my ptera can handle my weight
anything non taming related
Even the stuff I need to survive in case I get ambushed mid-taming attempt?
if you just drop it there, then leave render completely, it will keep taming with nothing able to render in around it to hurt it. only good side about single player...
Hmm, I suppose I could stash my armor for the time being
Level 10 argy
Level 15 argy
Welp, at least this shotgun ammo won't collect dust. Time to go skeet shooting
Mods gimme gif perms dammit i have a perfect response to that
what settings do i change in order to make tamed dinos get more stats per level`?
And what would that be?
thx
I swear, I feel like one of these days my own security system will destroy my expensive crafting stations
um.. they shouldnt be able to damage your stuff on pve single player
Oh, I haven't set the PVE setting
Mainly because I feel like that would fuck with some things I'm otherwise able to get away with in a PVP setting
oh then yea lol make sure they dont hit it. i dodnt know first day i started ark. i rememeber the pain i felt when i hit my own base with my trike while fending off a dilo. all my storage boxes exploded xD
....OUCH
Bro what
I’m not gonna tell you how to game but PvE doesn’t have the 5 minute cooldown on cryo deployment.
Wait... it doesn't?
Oh I'm a looooooong way before I can reach cryo deployment, but that will surely be useful later on
Well, I do have two fertilized argy eggs that I could use to gain two argys
Cooking as much superior kibble as I can before going forth and luring a level 100 argy from grand hill
Hopefully nothing will kill me while I tranq the argy after trapping it
once its passed out, shove in the prime, and go out of render and wait. just track it so you can watch its torpor
What if something attacks the argy?
if its torpor goes almost all the way down, fly back, kill predators, feed narcotic, feed more meat, then fly away again. as long as you are out of render of that area, nothing will agro to it cause the map is only active where YOU are active in SP
Ahh, hopefully, thank you
I certainly hope it'll work, because I feel like I need to assume the worst case scenario for everything with how everything's been going for me so far
when ark ascended coming out
Level 80 argy found
Well it's no level 95 argy like the one that got killed (because there's no such thing as a "passive flee" whistle), but it's something
Also redwood mountain's now populated with rexes and allosaurus
October
Okay, enabled PVE mode
Now I'm seriously hoping my own security system won't destroy my fragile chemistry station
I think this argy trap worked TOO well
I can't get my tamed argy out of the trap even with the door open
Just destroy the wall
fr tf
Oh, I just destroyed the middle fence thingy that was meant to align the two other fence thingies to create the V shape
"thingies" love it
dit you get unstuck by destroying the thiny?
Not the big expensive thingy
Also
Found a level 85 argy. Tried luring it all the way to trap. Stamina almost depleted by the time it's close to the trap. Also it's nighttime so even if I were to pull it off, I just know there'll me tons of trodoons, trodoons everywhere, so I abort mission and go back home. I hate this
q
You could just build a campfire. Troodons will run from fire
Oh, that I didn't know
I suppose that could explain why I didn't face that issue too often back when I explored with a torch
Me and my friend are almost finished our first playthrough on the Island, what map should we try next, we are thinking either scorched earth or one of the free dlc ones
I think I'll use the destroywilddinos command just so I can get a new pair of beavers to spawn in the area where I carried them away from
Scorched Earth is the next map chronologically
Hiii, haven't played ark in while but in the end did they remove the online game part or not?? I'd like to start playing again with people that why i'm asking
official is being removed on the 30th of sep. you can still play single player and unofficial servers
okay thaanks, i thought i heard something like that but wasn't sure
is it random what level the tamed rhyniognatha is?
Sheeeesh, no wonder people say singleplayer sucks. Especially if the normal solution for taming dangerous or elusive (like the coveted quetzal) dinos is grabbing a player with an argy and then having that player shoot tranqs at the dino
One of these days I'll get myself on enough metal and enough polymer to craft an industrial forge in the volcano so I can smelt all the metal I possibly can on-site so that the metal ingots can then be hauled to my base. Problem would be trying to decide where to place it, because I don't want to sacrifice any metal or obsidian node spawns
why not just keep it at the base?
the ankylo makes the metal weigh like 85% less or something like that
so it wouldnt be a problem to move
True, but I thought hauling 300 weight in ingots would be more efficient than hauling 600 weight in ores.
That, and mainly because I want to clear out all the nodes in one trip instead of coming and going to empty my pockets
when you go into the volcane, there is a spot in the entrance you can place it that doesnt kill off the nodes. its a decent gap. or cliff plat the side of it
Ah, thank you very much
I'll see if I can find that cliff plat or decent gap
its only unlocked on ab but since its single player, just give yourself one lol
i do on island just to keep from deleting nodes
Ohh, cliff platform
Didn't know those were exclusive to aberration
well thats the first map they get learned on in story line. but yea. can also make a ghetto plat with pillars and ceilings lol
Also I can field an entire flock of pack mule argys, but I can only bring one anky at a time
i dont recommend that. its kinda wonky over there.. when you fly back into render, your tames take some serious damage before the floor renders
Even if it's built several pillars above the lava?
oh no thats fine lol
thought you meant just build on direct. Lava is weird on each map. some is high damage, some just tickles.
Oh yeah, with how finicky this game is, I'm not taking any chances by placing ceilings directly on top of the lava
Hmmm, perhaps I could establish an evil scientist base over there, in close proximity to so many important resources (and then hopefully eventually score myself an ascended crossbow for underwater use)
Plus I like that it's a decent enough height to be able to spot quetzals more easily
just killed a rex that I am pretty sure was bugged out
not a surprise... they do that...lol
literally just roared at me then tried to run away and then stopped moving
prolly should have tamed it ngl..
also should I kill the quetzal in my area that I know of so that a better level one spawns (I was originally playing with low difficulty until I realized it was low so it's really bad)
or do I tame it and use it to find a higher level
I say the latter
Excellent
I seriously need to tame an herbivore tho before I get to that
they all died in the allosuarus incident of 2023
a group of allos and a rex decided they wanted to roam into my front lawn and kill most of my dinos
only an ankylo and raptor survived
that rex is now my rex
2 pteranodons, a parasuarus, carbohydrates my beloved (carbonenomes), 4 dilophosuars, 2 dodo birds.
and then the ankylo and raptor
Oh my, no brontos?
now I have 1 pteranodon, 1 tapejara, 1 argentavis, 2 allosuarus, 1 rex, 1 bronto, the raptor and ankylo. and I think that's it
Oooh, so far so good
yeah I have recovered
I had a stegosaurus
until that one other rex
and I had another raptor that I had tamed and completely forgot about until a roam with my rex then I just brought it along (it died)
also what does pack leader buff do (if it even is a buff and is just a status)
Ouch...
i dont know if raptors still have a buff or not with it honestly but last i knew, it was a pack boost like with the wolves
oh yeah I also had an ovis before the allos came home
only weaker
yeah I've seen packs in the wild. I have 2 allos as of recent and now the higher level has the pack leader
Allo pack boost allows bleed affect too
sadly yet another dino that became useless in the game due to not being allowed in boss fights...
is it like that bird dino thing on valguero but less op
the bleed
yea the dein is the bleeder for bosses. works great!
I have an egg for a lvl 50 one
does anyone know?
if I kill all the deins at a nest will they respawn higher level since I originally had low diff on this save
I don't wanna drive them to extinction
depends on what you feed to it for its birth and what lvl the wild was so yes
i found a max level and fed it all it wanted but it was only level 82
like every other birth
then the dino u impregnanted had poor stats
yeah it was a level 23 bronto
thats why
i didnt think that mattered
yup.
well thats nice to know
can also try again
?
i recommend impregnating a high stat stego, bronto, giga, carcha, or rex
unless you killed the female, she will still be out there to impregate a dino for you again
yea you wanna get the pregnant out of there after. net gun the rhynio and just run lmao lose its agro
ok
or just run if no net gun
thank you
😄
Where i can view on steam new ark ascended?
It does not have a steam page yet
can i read somewhere what it is going to change, i know that is going to cost around 55-60usd
40$
If you go the ark announcements on this server. There is many community chrunches where the developers talk about ark news and sometimes about asa
thanks
One of these days I should grapple right onto a diplo's face and chainsaw it as revenge for knocking me around at my base
that sounds brutal
Yeah, I've been really hating those things and how common they are in my area
Holy shit I never knew dams could spawn underwater
No wonder I've been struggling to find those!
Oooh, a level 140 otter!
Should be great for insulation against the elements
tell otterly
Do it with the hyeenas i h8 them
They killall my horses and me
Ouch
whos getting ark survival ascended
Notme
me
once its playable
im getting it day one
I spent all my money on ark when it was 40$ 2 yearsago
yeah im not waiting 2 years ^^
I ahall
Everyone becouse they are addicted
i hope they do a preorder bonus of some kind
there are no preorders afaik
I feel like if I let beavers wonder around so they can collect would, I'll need to have them be accompanied by a bodyguard in case of a freak terrorbird attack
Or a freak big cat attack
but a 5$ discount after release
beavers are strong af for some reason
atleast its under $50
its 40 at the start, going up to 45 iirc
They are? Damn
fight wild ones on foot
i'll be doing videos of the game
ok
Besides, I highly doubt a beaver will always be encountering threats 1-on-1, since if I let it wonder, I'll be releasing it into redwood forest
if you need large amounts of wood get a theri
Ohh, those ultra powerful vegan rexes
Well shit, my level 194 ptera died to a level 20 dire bear
I swear, keeping these things alive is an absolute impossibility
lmao
I can't get onto friends server cause my Ark patch is outdated. I un/reinstalled and its still the same damn patch, anyone have an idea how to fix this?
would a diplo work?
Any mods?
Yes but my patch is at 358.7. Everyone elses is at 358.11
I will buy the second its out.
As long as it's 358 it should be fine. Try verifying files or unsub/resub to the most recently updated mods.
I've done both.
Think island asa will be like fjordur with different realms
ASA will be a remaster of ASE. Island will likely be just the Island with all the new content, no realms.
Idk.
Try asking in #unofficial-setup-help for setup help and issues.
thank you
Realms are only specific to Fjordur.
Gen 1 is kind of like that. And gen 2
Those are biomes, not realms, but I doubt they'd add the teleport feature to anywhere else since it wasn't there originally.
At least, not that specific festure. Teleporters themselves exist.
I mean they’re adding slot of new stuff. So. Y not. I think they like the biome realm.
I can bet you my whole life savings, there will be no realms on Island.
Highly doubt there will be any realms aside from Fjordur.
Genesis 1 and 2 have biome teleports, not realms.
Hmm, looking at the wiki, it says it takes around 7 superior kibble to tame a level 90 castor
But the level 100 castor I brought to base took 3 superior kibble to tame
Odd
Taming multiplier
Use https://www.dododex.com/ for taming and make sure you change the multipliers to whatever you have set in your server or singleplayer.
2x
Ahh, thank you very much
if you are on singleplayer the taming multiplier is 2.5
OOooh, excellent
Thank goodness for singleplayer settings
Oooh, gots myself a mastercraft item
Even if it's only a baryonyx saddle
If anyone from ark is reading this. Please make a island realm or biome with maewings tek gigas, deinos and mutagen please. Lol
wth
Guys I have a question
When I want a good stats dino, should I tame a high lvl one or low lvl one an lvl it up?
Typically 140 or higher. The higher level your dino, the higher the stats will go up per level.
high level always better for immediate use. when breeding, depends on your current needings
Oh okay
Well I'm planing on having a high stats thylacleo so If I tamed a low lvl pair and breeded it?
No. Tame high levels first for optimal stats in melee and health.
you tame as high as you can. breed them together so they have the exact same stats, with the ones you want being the higher one. then, if you want, you can tame a level one and breed it into there, and with a little luck you keep only the stats you need high, the rest being at 0, ensuring you reach the level cap as late as possible.
read into the links bee sent for further information
Screw it, imma tame a few low-level argys for pack-muling purposes, then focus on fielding a team of higher level argys
How do I get the lowest possible levels on a Dino on official? Last I played I was taming a r-velo and I punched it until it almost died and healed it probably 6 times. I had the taming effectiveness super low to the point it was only supposed to get one level, however, when it tamed it came out having gained about 40% out of 100%
It'll work. Just don't ride the low levels, they'll run out of stamina fast. Pump all their levels into weight and use them as your carriers.
Ahh, excellent idea, thank you very much
I already have one high level one, which will be my main, and what I'll be using to haul my flesh and blood pickaxe
I'm pretty sick of mining metal from redwood mountain
So instead I'll focus my mining efforts in grand hill
where’s the best place to build bases?
Depends on its level and stats
Pve or pvp?
One message removed from a suspended account.
maewing
On official, you gotta find a low lvl Dino preferably 5-15 and drop it. When it's down, cast out your owl and peck it, heal it, peck it, heal it, jump off shoot it heal it back forth back forth lol. Gotta bring it to 0% to get it 0 lvls added.
What map are you on? And are you map hopping for tames?
One message removed from a suspended account.
Alright, time to build a platform on top of grand hill's lava and place a smelting outpost there
Oh that map idk i don't play it cause it keeps wrecking my files..
Check YouTube for base location coords
ok will do thanks
Yes you can transfer back and forth between all the maps you own. If you are on single player, you upload all your stuff including armor in item, then upload yourself. Log off, then load the map you wish to join and select download character on your "create character" screen. You'll have to make it to an obelisk or drop to get your stuff tho.. downside to it.
Since ur on rag, next best flyer is Argent and it's more mid game lvl sadly. Only other early flyer is lymantria... and all it does is fart...

62 I think?
If you make a fishing rod and get honey/sap/leech blood, you can maybe chill and fish up a blueprint.

Morning.
Guys does anyone know why the new SmallTribes server is down or gone. I can't seem to find it
@vernal bone
If your official ARK server is currently offline, unstable, or having issues with transfers or lost data, then please submit a server report.
(NOTE: please wait up to 30 minutes after a server crash to submit a report)
Yeah thanks Kapro. That’s what I had done. I got it almost all way down then healed to full health at least six times. That’s an understatement. Maybe r velos are just bugged
Gotta get it to +0 lvls. And keep going just a bit more. It's a buggy thing sometimes
Yeah. So it will jump up to 40+% unless you do a fair amount extra?
Taming effectiveness? I had a tek pistol and I know I said six times but it was probably more like 12+.
Htg to work. @ me and I’ll see it later
where did the new small tribes go? they are not even in battlemetrics
Did people waste 2 days of their time in vain, so that they would simply be turned off later?
Idk something went wrong completely
They should be back up?
ldl 216 still offline
Oh sorry hehe
They are going up and down so likely they are being worked on
Hold tight 
No they won't.
And Ark 2 going to have a timed exclusivity period where it only Xbox and PC before it goes to PS5
Will rynio be at launch
Well they have a spawn for them on the island, so I'd say good chance
They’d be overpowered
Please understand that EU-PVP-Official-LDL-TheIsland-SmallTribes216/217 was fresh and for two days people transfered their years old smalltribe character for fresh pvp and now servers have been rolled back to day 8000. Which means 140+ player lost their characters and progress made in these days. Customer support set ticked to solved without any feedback on the given issue + deleate tickets. As prob believe rolling back the server to day 8000 Is the server issue tickets are submitted about.
My bad, thought I copied the new link still had the dododex link.
I can't speak for that, I just go to habitat map on the Ark wiki
Ok?
Just saying unless they plan to completely change what spawns where which I doubt, pretty safe to say it'll be there in ASA
I hope ASA will run nicely with my 3090 in 1440p , i try the Matrix Ue5 Demo with dlss 2.0 and get 44 to 55 Fps with all on High.
when is ark 1.5 coming out and how much is it gonna cost
ASA
ARK: Survival Ascended will now be a standalone package released on every platform (PC Windows/Steam, Xbox Series S/X, and PlayStation 5) at $39.99.
The package will include the following pieces of content built-in (not sold separately), with each remastered and altered for the next-generation on Unreal Engine 5: w/Cross Play and Cross Platform Modding
The Island (Released at Launch at the end __October 2023__)
Survival of the Fittest: The Island
Scorched Earth (Release in December)
Ragnarok & Aberration (Released by Q1 2024)
Extinction, Genesis Part 1, Genesis Part 2, and all the community-created maps are also to be released over time in 2024 (Fjordur, Ragnarok, The Center, Lost Island, Valguero, Crystal Isles)
Does lowering gamma and turning off VSYNC mode help with lag on Xbox?
not a lot
Oh I always thought it did ha ha
Hi, I'm Intersted to play ARK. Should I wait for ark ascended or ark 2 or just play it now?
wait for ark 1.5
what is ark 1.5?
asa
Does anyone know what will happen with Ark mobile? Will it be remastered to?
1 month and its out , then u can buy it and everyone will be kinda new to it so ur not gonna be that big of a noob
@ebon pine
Will people still play asa when ark 2 is out?
yeah if ark 2 is very different sum people may still play ark asa
when will ark 2 be released tho?
where can i buy the asa and ark 2 bundle?
on xbox ps5 or steam and maybe epic games idk
its not out yet
i will wait for ark 1.5 then, thx for the info
I believe they scrapped the bundle idea and plan to sell them separately if I'm not mistaken
np , if u have questions just ask me
Steboot is correct, ASA is a standalone item that will include all existing map released over time + 2 exclusive maps that will be paid.
im planning on killing a boss on valguero what should I beat and what dinos should I use?
shotgun
shotgun?
pack of deinos
whats the minimum level my deinos should be (base)
190+? Im not sure but bring 8 deinos so u get two packs with boost
and a yuty ofc
bro
my max base level dinos is 150
see it yourself maybe u can defeat bosses, pump stats in dmg and stam
my deino got 25.7k hp and 2.8k md is that good?
Hi all Who of you is excited to play the game on servers pvp ? 😁
How long do servers usually take to get back up? I was playing a few hours ago and suddenly got dc, server disappeared my friend tried to join and he got a text that said the server had coders or something and it still isnt back up.
ldl servers are done for 5 hours now and wc doesn't care...
Bro me and my mate got wiped by a giga
All our baby wyverns are dead god I hate this game at times
why dont u got your dinos on neutral?
Na it was a tamed one
Bro came in while we where out to get a baryonyx
And we where on slow ass argies 😭
Any ps want to play
thats why i usually have my dinos on neutral so they protect the babys lmao.
Yeah we needed our defense up a bit more but we where just to focused on raising the wyverns oh well you gotta learn
yeah, thats what this game is about. You can never learn enough.
hello! i have a new pc along with a new steam is it worth buying ark now or waiting till ASA release?
asa is coming in 2024 ig
but if i buy ark now normal ark do i get that free?
idk
but like you can buy ark now and then buy asa
its up to you like if you want to wait buy asa
but like if you can have for both and if you want
Personally at this point would be better wait I think since official closing.
Unofficial still stands as far as Wildcard is concerned, but that comes down to the server owners for those that decide to close them to set up on ASA.
If you had Gamepass for PC you could play ASE for free that way.
paleo carno or giga?
ark dead or just the report a bug is pointless because no admins respond anyways
Bug reports do not denote a response, it is just that, a report.
Will ASA add cages with seats so my geriatric prisoned bob - @dreamy lintel doesn't have to stand for hours on those poor old knees?
What was it before about two things that would be paid exclusive to ASA? Looking for clarity from before you mention in #ark-2
Some paid dlcs that won't be on ASE, I don't know what they will be.
One paid DLC, I misread one of the crunches
I wonder how much ark ascended will cost on both Xbox and playstation when it drops
I have insider information, Asa will have different dinosaurs
$40 at launch, $45 after EA.
Will ASA launch with a Halloween event active?
maybe
That would be nice 12 days of 3x rates to help kickstart our fresh start.
what is the missions for tek shields and shoulder cannons
Will ark asa have single player?
With no transfer how long is it going to be before servers only have one tribe?
1 day
I hope devs have a plan to keep servers competitive.
As soon as a bace gets wiped it is game over. It is very hard to bounce back.
I’ve always played official PvE. I don’t like losing progress to other players in PvP. And I like building cute houses out of wood that would get destroyed in PvP instantly ha ha.
Bc of ark ascendant does this mean I cant play ark anymore on my Xbox one
Can I play ark ascendant on my Xbox one?
So I can’t play ark anymore
Cause I have a Xbox one
And I think the first ark getting deleted
In single player or unofficial servers.
We looking to own server with in the first week and be in tek by then also
Day 20 (or less) of fjordur and I've killed 2 alpha rexes, multiple alpha raptors (I forgot how many) and tamed a magmasaur, fire wyvern and velonasaur
This is going good
And I have like half of the runes
anyone tryna play xbox cross play servers
I’m on XboxIsland939. 15 on actually. Most I’ve seen in any official server lately.
Just wait until it gets to the fenrir fight, then it's not as lovely lol
I haven't beaten a single boss and I'e played for a long time
I don't think that's my main priority, it's more of collecting all the cool dinos and building a nice base
I've gotten in total like 5 artifacts throughout the entire time I've played ark
Since I just never really felt like doing a bossfight
The ascensions help alot with progression, as it unlocks tek tier and the extra levels needed for Mjolnir, the "hammer" skin you can put into the tek sword at level 190
It can be unlocked by
Fighting all three broodmother, megapthicus and dragon.
Collecting all the runes.
Killing fenrir and the other bosses
Etc
Only official servers are being discontinued, they're not touching unofficial.
However that will be determined if unofficial server owners switch to ASA or not, but there will be unofficial servers that stay on ASE.
Yo
will there be a halloween event this year?
dm if u wanna play ark cross play xbox!
idk if there will even be a game to play this year lol
Channing
Is there a way to chance only wild dino food drain?
will you be able to buy ark ASA early for more money like a couple of days or so?
Ignoring the doability of it, why on Earth would you want to preorder it?
5 dollars cheaper on launch ($40)
no preorders
dang
id wanna see some gameplay before i decide if i wanna buy it off the bat lol
im probably gonna buy it instantly anyways
Meanwhile I'm of the opposite opinion. I'm probably not gonna buy it since I figure it will be rampant with issues like ASE, but even worse. 
that name lol

Anyone know why my wyvern dossier isn’t loading a checkmark
Does 30k hp, 1000% dmg and 200+ armor saddles on rexes sound like enough to take on alpha megapithacus? I’ve got 18 Rexes, a daeodon, and a yutyrannus. I asked in the gen chat and got conflicting answers so I figured I’d ask here since it’s less crowded
Ofc you can idk how u got conflicting answers
200+ saddles
Damn
Well the BP is 186 but I mindwiped myself and put 109 levels into crafting skill
Still really good but yea you’ll be able to do it as long as you don’t lose Dino’s to the void
I sugest going with yuty then chitons the monkey back to where you spawn In the arena
@viral shore Feel Like Shit Just Want Some ASA News .
Some gameplay footage would be wicked
inb4 the news is another delay 💀
Is there a good way to find rhyniognatha? Been searching their spawn area for a week with no luck.
"admincheat summon rhyniognatha_character_bp_c"
So no, then. Dang.
Kill everything in this areas until one spawns.
Will there be Cryos at ASA launch ? 
You would have to level up to unlock it probably
Тот кто русский + и кто пойдет играть в ARK
We don’t know. Last we heard was the devs were considering whether or not to add them prematurely
For those who understand how map making and dino spawns work: why is it that on most of the newer maps (starting from CI all the way to Fjordur) there are lots of dead zones where dinos don't spawn and then some small hot spots where tons of dinos spawn? For example, Fjordur Asgard has large open plains that are mostly empty and boring. Similarly, CI snow biome is mostly lifeless.
I would rather like to know, that if we already get cross platform accounts, will we have to but the game and all DLC twice for PS5 and PC for example.
Buy*
Yes. You will have to buy the game on both platforms to play the game on both platforms.
is it possible to install ark on my ssd but have some maps i dont use on an hdd?
if steam gives you that option it is. but i dont think that it is possible
I still hope not. modders will make a mod fast enough if it is not the case
Is the small tribes server on now?
if it is then bye bye snail
Very likely, they are not map specific BP and have huge effect on server performance
No
Is anyone having issues with the servers not loading?

I finally found a tek raptor of high level (168) and I WATCHED IT take a fight it could not take with two doedicurus and wasn't able to stop the doedicuruses(?) from killing it.
I also just got an idea of something I could do
I remember on rag one time I set up a farm with a bunch of tek stegos on mating and one sarco on agressive
I could do that here
Hi! I have a problem with ark crashing every 10-15 mins in singleplayer. It says "unreal engine is exiting due to d3d device being lost". I tried looking for solution but none work, i have drivers up to date. I have 600hours+, came back from two months brake and downloaded ark again but it just doesn't work. Help pls
my first advice is to verify the integrity of game files through steam
I don't play on steam :/
I re-downloaded ark like two times since then so idk, nothing seems to work and i didn't change anything with graphic card/PC in general. Maybe someona had similar issue and know how to fix this
Ah ty, i'll try there
pretty sure my parachute strat (if you fall off a cliff on a dino jump off and activate parachute) just saved my dino lol. When you're not on a dino they don't take fall damage.
You don’t need the parachute. Just dismount before hitting the ground
yeah just makes it so I can do it earlier and not take fall damage
does that work on all platforms?
maybe?
not sure I don't play console really
I have the console version but I just didn't like it
I have a massive question: How far will crossplay go in ASA? I really wanna play with a friend on PC/Xbox but am a PS5 player. With the servers all being the same company now will the game be full crossplay?
yes
there will be full crossplay yes
Yes just wait 1 second before dino is going to hit the ground and dismount
heya will we be able to download our stuff off of official servers before they go down ? If yes, when ??
UH OH D3D
Best I got for you
Unfortunately D3d device lost is a particularly annoying crash. Lots of different suspected causes, no confirmed fix for all occurrences that I've yet seen:/ I've collated all the information I can find on it, maybe something in there can fix it. At the bottom of the thread.

Did Wild Card ever give a date on when ASA would come out? Or did they just say somewhere in late October? Or am i completely wrong?
they said end of october
nothing more
@oblique lantern you can get latest server saves now. I think on survivetheark.com. but i think in order to use them you have to rent a nitrado server. But i could be mistaken
As much as I am expecting a delay, Im not sure they can afford to delay it again. It wouldnt be good for them
devs still seemed confident on october release yesterday and its already been delayed once
Where can I preorder
rhynio and carcha in ASA island from start or no pls?
no preorders
nobody knows.
i dont see why they wouldnt be in on launch
Agreed 💯, an October release is quite imminent
no other way ? Like download for single player or host on an already existing private server
It’s still wildcard. So I would guess it’s not earlier than 31. October 2023 😅
post fjordur content
so what
@craggy lark then again whenever they dont delay stuff it usually doesnt come out very well. Take Lost Islands for example. It was good for the first few days but then it started getting really hard to play on with all the lag and glitches. Then again it was also released during an event so that could have also been the cause.
And?
also carcha dossier is not listed under island when you filter them
I never faced an issue on LI?
You know all crashes mention LI because it’s the build name…not because it’s causing them 🤣
Poor LI getting bullied by bad nomenclature
he got a point though, but for almost every map
the novelty is cool and all but then the glitches start kicking in
never had those issues plus releasing with issues is still a release
they finally fixed server transfers after months, thats funny
Mostly Ext and G1 faced issues
Exactly
I never faced any issues with other map launched
but it spawns on the island so i dont see why it wouldnt on asa
Tho tbh I wasn’t around for Ab and SE
bro on gen 2 release i had this absolutely cancerous bug that would crash my game when i saved
idk, I thought thay wanted to make it feel like 2015, hence no cryopods etc.
Whaa
Yeah but it would still be nice to actually be able to play the game rather than having lag rubber band you back into the mouth of a giga lol
no cryopods isnt confirmed and feeling like 2015 doesnt mean not having newer creatures
were just gonna have to wait and see on that one
we must admit that ark is full of bugs even if most of us can figure out how to bypass and ignore them. like a bug thats been with us for years is the good ol non ridden dinos dont take fall damage
thats a bug?
so is the snow owl getting movement speed increase from imprint, which i thought was just a weird feature
not really more just a weird quirk of the game
One bug that really pissed me off was whenever I would ride the astrodelphis it would be good at first but then the game would freeze for 2 seconds and once it unfreezes then I would get kicked off the saddle.
@oblique lantern looks like nitrado is only required for consoles. Should be able to use a regular server for pc
the entirety of gen 1 lunar suffers from a critical bug that makes it near unplayable because any dino rendered near the gas veins will take damage from this, and will damage the player and their dinos even if theyre not even near it. and thats a bug on the scale of an entire biome, theres so many more smaller bugs
never had that happen lol
doesnt mean it doesnt exist
more like gen1 ocean that is unplayble for some people because of random crashes
Well i was using the regular xbox one at the time so maybe that had something to do with it? I have series S now so it doesnt happen anymore
gen 2 as a whole is so big and unoptimized that many struggle to even load in
i had a bug that suddenly crashed my gen 2 game and deleted the entire save
many on console will often crash trying to fight rockwell prime as well, teleporting into the arena is a gamble of whether or not your game will load.
Thanks appreciated, I created breedlines from scratch no one else has, trying to save that, customized with carefully picked colors for each region...
One of the worst things that could happen is crashing during a bossfight
im not saying that it didnt exist
Does 30k hp, 1000% dmg and 200+ armor saddles on rexes sound like enough to take on dragon and if so what is the max difficulty I could take on? I’ve got 18 Rexes, a daeodon, and a yutyrannus
