@heavy cedar

lmaooo
where you guys gonna build?
on the island
Herb
On a quetz lol
Near red
You on another level..
Love it x
GUYS
…
I don't think Ark ascended releasing on a Thursday probably Friday BC it's a community crunch that day
In game photos leaked i have rm
Im another level of pissed off still after the last crunch
how hard would it be to kill all the bosses for the first time before ASA?
Dm if you want the leaks
In the beach 😂, theres alot places that have alot hight jouce close and dont need run too far all time
Lies
What kind of leaks? 😏😏😏
Photos
I'm pissed they changed my milk delivery to 2pm aha
Screenshots
Fake
Go on send it to me 🥺
That dam milkman
Dm me
Can't do much TBF we got the raptor pic but next week will be it
Tropeognathus is cool
He must have a few more stoppes that need some extra milking
Raptor pic better than dread pic
carefull might be an stick 😂
hahahaha
Tru
I mean if we don't get a trailer till next week its probably getting delayed
Should I ask???
Here we go again lol
2 daddy’s in this chat😏
Wow ejaculates
Yeah TBF or they really gonna try to hype it and release it on the same day when ASA releases
@icy snow send dm
Alr
M
Vladdy DM me
M
I
P
DM me
hahaha
But I can put ejaculates
Not to me, ask him for the leaks 🙃
trailer and game will drop tuesday mark my words, screenshot it as proof
Nahh my gallery full of pics of ppl saying thag
you wanna know why?
nah
Kk
I doubt it
Enlighten us Frax
Hahaha bro U really think WC will drop the game just in the middle of the week out of no where
But we did randomly get that raptor picture
they have never released a game on a friday, they dont normaly work weekends, they do them on tuesday, and have time to work on sever stablity, i looked at ever game/dlc, port and they never released anything on friday‼️‼️‼️
Its possible because outlast trials update comes tuesday too because people play more on tuesdays
🧐
This is WC thi
True
They hate tuesdays 😂, might right, but now we still have 2 of them 🙃
What if it releases on Wednesday or after next week 💀
I mean we'll see maybe you are right
This Fkn Guy, hes got the stats out
If it’s not on time it won’t be tuesday, but if it’s on track like they say it’ll be tuesday
They have said it's on track
He researched for hours
more like 30 mins lol
Big brain 🧠
Gets out the clipboard
is it coming out this week forsure?
the whiteboard
unless it’s delayed, it has to
Not for sure but probably
I don’t see all the secrecy behind it though
Still waiting @icy snow
🤓
like be transparent, just drop the trailer it’s not hurting anything
I saw the pics
Why you showing your face bud
They want to blow everyone away
It wasn't even dinosaurs just some snow biome pics
Bloody rolling black board
yeah i’m sure that ark 2 trailer blew everyone away
am i the only person who never beat ark
Yes
There stroking the wrong pole for that
Sent
Trailer should’ve been released IMO, and a date should’ve also been announced in his past CC. “Hype” isn’t dropping both on the same day out of nowhere
💀
that’s how you fuck up your own launch
I need proof of wrong pole ...*joke *
bro imagine they release the trailer and game on the same day
What do you think? @cedar veldt
Fr I waited till 2pm only for it to be a ahitty picture of a dinosaur
It's wild card TBF they probably delaying it
am i missing out on anything by not going thru the fjordur realms
I dino that’s gonna be as useless as a diplo
It's WC it is possible
2pm try 1am
Yeah I waited 1 am aswell
Well good right? You see the trailer and buy it 😂 hopely good 🤞
I meant 2am sorry
I wouldn't buy it like for 3days after release just because I want to see first how it is
I thought 2pm was a bit soft...... what did you skip lunch lol
Why? Steam have 2h rule, if bad, refound it 🙃
Lol I had the same thought
taming my first ever tropeo
I am buying from Microsoft probably
Dude you weren’t actually expecting a trailer did you? I just went to sleep lol
No I expected like another pic of the game like the raptor or something
I expected a trailer
I called it aha
Didnt dollie say not to get your hopes up?
It’s likely a trailer
So you cant be disappointed
That or several screenshots first
less than a week till release and we dont have that. Its rubbish
you did lol
No, she sayd "this week its 🔥"
Yea don't give hops up and wait like 3 weaks for trailer even though U don't know if it's getting delayed or not
That was after the dread pic
So might not be the game out, i has thinking this moji do be the right one: 🤯
Idk why but the pictures of asa on tiktok are actually getting mad views
Everyone waiting for something tomorrow...other than milk x
I mean imagine waiting so long and then say 'sorry but it has to be delayed and it will release next October"
not enough time 😦
Not to get your hopes up for the next crunch, the one after is when it was said something’s coming. But people misunderstood and believed the dread crunch was the one that gives us the trailer or more reveals
Thats what i meant
This is the week we will get something big with what dollie said
But i am never really getting my hopes up with WC until i see an actual date
What time is it where U live guys go to sleep it's 1am for me
So i never get disappointed
no
Granted they did give dates but then they delayed
Same here
It’s better they didn’t reveal a date so it can soften the blow if there actually is a delay
Uk?
That could be the reason why they don't give us a date
Yep
And if the herb* island gone? 😂
I got another good spot
It basically is the reason. They aren’t sure if they have to delay or not. And most of the time it’s possibly because they have to work with a limited budget due to snail games
Its next to the rewoods
I never was there anyways
Between 3 metal mountain
you all playing pvp?
No lol
I never played PvP always pve
same
I aint got all weeks to grind
I used to play PvP, got major trust issues from it
PvP for fuck around pve for the bosses
I just didnt want to waste my time
That’s fair
Pve is just fun like taming all Dino's and flexing about it to your friends
no pvp, even i hurt my self, i love have the things i farmed and worked for, and trading 🙃
Goddammit, I spent too much time trying to make sure the juveniles were alright (right after my trip to the mountains) that my ultimate anky (MD 989) drowned in the water it was dropped at
PvE is better community wise. Cant stand the toxicity in pvp
just weak
Agreed
lol
PvP 9 times out of 10 is horrid
You say that but you don't touch grass
i just play pve because i want to build a large base without worrying it'll get torn down after i log out
you dont even know me
Ngl both pve and PvP community r annoying asf
And ...
dont need to know you
I mean ofcourse they are toxic if they could lose everything they worked for the last week in one second
y'all would be amazed at how many players still dont do boss fights for the level cap increase and BPs lol
even in PvP
Without even looking at the obvious issue (Tea tribe) and hackers, most people inside raid the poor saps just trying to find their own way in the community but then there’s the absolute horrid people who trick others with trades and then they murder the guy or gtfo when they don’t give their item to the trade dealer
I don't do bosses so often I mean I killed most of them but not all
On official basically yeah. Probably won't find any server I am about to describe for ASE at this point with ASA just on the horizon.
But find a PvE cluster that discord run with an RP direction community to it and a server owner hosted auction, but player used so it the community making the auction what it is the admin just over see it so no one gets scammed.
One I was in I really like cause they didn't use berrybush seeds and instead chose ingots as the universal currency for auctions which adapted to most independant trades as well, but independant could go for whatever two parties agreed on.
On official i didnt done any of genesys or 2, solo life its burnout at some point and that not an goal anymore, could just buy anything i needed with one call, breeds, trading, keep the bases running
I never used to in pve until the last cluster i played on
when will asa come out?
This month
I play PvP servers but I dont go out my way to PvP; for me it is more of having the option to and the randomness other players bring
a sense of gambling
Is ark fun on PlayStation?
Ima buy it I just need to to buy PlayStation plus know
Unless you have a pc
A lot of people forget there is PvP potential in PvE mostly cause people forget about Tribe War mechanic
I recommend buying ASA when it comes out
?
I’m confused 💀💀
Also need to clarify, are you on PS4 or PS5, Selltome?
buy ASA if you have a ps5 and have 40-45 bucks on your hand
Need a ps5
Then ASE gonna be only option.
ASA is next generation complete revamp of ASE and it only launching for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC
ASA will also include all existing DLCs, they will just be released overtime as Wildcard gets them finished because every map is getting re-done from the ground up.
Only the exclusive map for ASA will be paid DLC
pffffbbbbbtttttt
really?
Should we be expecting any updates today?
no
Yes
I dinnooooooo
😆 ps4
Put Ur stick down then use the other eyes 👀 and look lol
which stick are you referring to?
dollie was just on general chat and she said it'll come this month 100%
But that we already knew
Yup ☺️ stop being so thirsty
What are you yapping about bud
People STILL asking when it's coming out 😆
Maybe because we don't know yet?
It'll be here when it's here. And it's meant to be by the end of the month
And we want a fcking trailer
did yall notice the raptor pic came monday? im betting tomorrow (or today depending on where u live) we'll get something
Same thought
Maybe a new pic but I don't think trailer or sm
This is the best marketing for a game I've ever seen 🤣
Monday trailer, friday the game
could be monday or thursday trailer methinks
I mean as long as they get money
Nothing, apart from some Twitter chat and shit community crunches
Trailer and game in the same day is crazy I hope they don't do that
Wish they did
What's the point of a trailer now, anyone who is into ark is getting it regardless, I mean come on
nah they said week, not friday or weekend XD
Wdym
But we SHOULD make a stand as s community
builds hype and would be cool to look at if it's a remade of the 2015 one
But it would be fine if it was on monday wouldnt it
I bet we get a trailer in 48 hours followed by multiple screens untill the game releases end of the month
lol and do what
And not buy it for the first few days just to fuck with them
I mean yes I guess
on the crunch, it's said "We're looking forward to the week ahead, it's gonna be a fun one! 😉"
@heavy cedar can u give us a hint if the fire 🔥 starts Monday or Tuesday aha
Aint nobody gonna wait on buying that gane to fuck with them💀
Oh I didn't know that well maybe we are really getting a trailer
we may just get tidbits until the trailer or the other way around
Kinda wish they would show a rock tmmrw
Dgaf bout no trailer. Wanna see the game. And NOW.
nah they going all in fo shoo
And killed by a raptor at easy spawn location
lol.
100%
This is a massive gamble tho eh
Guess what
All i need is to see how the new otters look like… nothing else
Ur not getting anything
The amount of times a raptor got me during a note run after getting the 4x note...
Am I the only one who never tamed an otter??
Rage inducing I assure you
Just payed 450 for a ps5
I want a stone a simple chuck of rock hard …
@keen belfry bit of an otter fetish there? 😆
how do u get caught by a raptor after the 4x bruh
Apparently, otterd are awesome
Know I spent almost a 1k today
what dinos do you guys recommend for the broodmother btw?
they are
💀
By being a bob
megatherium
and yuty
Wb
Free multiple srtifacts and indulation are pog
are theris good too?
Only good for carrying artifacts
Ok IAM going to tame one tomorrow
and warmth
True
Theris work on any boss
alr
I need sleep, I cant type or reply to the correct person lmao
yeah they can work, but I would save them for dragon boss fight since herbivores have reduced fire dmg
lmao i got work tommrow and its 1:30 am
Same hwre
well theri is a omnivore i think but.. the reduction still counts xd
Same
I am dumb asf💀
Im fucked😂
alr
We all have no life
🤣
Bye yall 😭😭
Same and I have to wake up at like 8am
No lifers
gl XD
Sams
🔥
noice- can you guys give me dino recommendations for some caves too? ik the baryonyx is good for like 400% of them but what about the others?
Bye iam going also I need sleep
Better set q9 alarms
Im hyped for all the new realistic features UE5 adds to the game like water physics etc. Just have to call my bank and take a loan for a pc that can handle the game 💀💀
Caio
Grapples are the best dino for caves, otherwise wolves are pretty good imo, just grab a pack
Uhhh itchys for UW caves
and cactus soup for uw
Ngl
With school and animating I forget about asa 💀
Iam so hyped for the game but imagine my pc can't run the game then IAM fcked
Idk pocket giga if you have cryos is always amusing
do you get asa cheaper or for free even if you have ase already?
Nope
Nopee
no, btu there's a launch discount
35$
40 eur
£1
The game should be discounted from 60 to 40 euro
🤣
Oh wasn't it 35$ at Launch
yall confusing lol
wait so is it like $60 normally?
it's 45 default price, 40 on discount
oh
Nah 50 normaly
60 was when it first got announced
Yes
bruh stop talking u dont know XDD
It's like 40 dollars and 40 in UK no?
alr ty
I've got no idea I've seen some vidios everyone says something else about the price
close to 80 au I think
everythings on the crunches
They best not be asking for £60
they were when it was bundled with ark 2 😂
yall excited for the ark animated series? idk why but its the thing im most excited for rn
yeah if only it got a platform to stream on
More accurate lore I’m open to see
im worried the series are not good enough and no platform wants it
Me too
Pretty sure there is a place for it already
nah
it was supposed to release on 2022
and there were some updates on here which they said they were searching for a platfrom still
Jeez
"ark the animated series will come out in 2034. get ready!" -wildcard in a couple years probably
even the series gets delayed ahahah
i think ima buy asa early access, how about yall?
There will be no early access
also do you think there's gonna be new dlc (like custom arks) or the same custom arks in asa
i think they mean the game itself being early acces
They said it will be in early access for a bit
yup
A ye, thought you ment pre order somehow
That bit will probably be a couple years untill ark2 comes out
like do yall think theres gonna be like fjordur and crystal isles and stuff for asa or new custom arks
I wonder what this 'Exciting week' entails 🤔
prolly starting monday they'll releasing a lot of info
that's what i think'll happen
it's what they did with ASE i think
I'm hoping to get these other custom maps eventually
A delay
Yippie
“Fun Week Ahead” Delay till december - Shastasauras Dossier!
anyone know if there is a custom map that has all or most of the dinos and all the expansions stuff in one map
ty
When I try to boot up fjordur it keeps crashing even tho all my other maps work
Yeah but fun for Wild card studio devs… they will have lots of fun seeing us suffering, they never said the fun part was for us
And like I just played it a few hours ago
If ASA releases outside of October, watch all non nitrado ASE servers get shut off
If I wanted to follow the story of ark what order of the maps would it be?
Yes
No I mean what order I onow the island would be first then scorched earth
Would the 3rd one be ragnarok? Or is that non cannon
Island,S.E,Abb,extinction, then the gen maps is that all the cannon story maps?
What maps are gonna be available at launch?
Yeah, the free maps dont have canon story line
Rag and Abb are both Q1 2024
Island only on launch. Scorched coming in Dec. Rag/abb q1
I tjoguht rag was in the story line for some reason
They didn't commit to releasing every map did they
I hope they don’t release ASA while I’m at work lol I can’t just miss work. I’m a teacher 😢
as a student i can confirm if asa is released while im at school im going to throw a temper tantrum
I’m going follow the story in single player then after I finish gen 2 go to rag then Fjonir
i was in the snow area and I was on my pteranodon just flying around, and this ut roared and it said "your dinosaur is frightened so you cant control it anymore. L" and i got so scared because i thought i was gonna get killed- thats the first time that happened to me, never knew about it before this
Ascending was nothing more than getting to do a boss fight and get my extra levels. I actually coulda cared less about following the story.
I just think it would be cool give me a goal for single player to avoid burn out
I’m. It going join public servers and just play single player trying to beat every map starting with the story ones
How does ascension work again is it like a rebirth?
No doubt, I have games I play for story. Ark just wasn't one of them. I had other preferences with it.
Honestly it’s not about the story it’s more of giving myself an end goal cause I burn out of Minecraft super fast for example cause once I get to netherrite level what else is their to do besides grind the same things and build cool stuff I can do that for a week or 2 but eventually I’m just like god I’m bored
I preferred to create my own story within an RP direction PvE cluster in unofficial with other people in Ark.
I feel like people just make their own goals or that's just what I do.
I know everyone is focused on ASA but will there be any updates about Ark Mobile coming soon?
My goal is always to build the biggest monstrosity of a base on normal harvest rates as possible because apparently I hate myself. 😂
What’s a. Good check list I should complete before attempting to take on the overseer on the island
Also what is there to do? Make fun and useless redstone gadgets
I’m going try to solo every ark map now that it’s finnaly done downloading
Does anyone know how to fix fjordur from crashing 😔
You poor soul.. Mods help Minecraft so much
I was just on it
Verify your game files probably corrupted somehow
I've downloaded a few but not many. Like I said I just like to build stupid stuff
Especially like building traps and then getting my kid to explore my bases
Thanks
Question before I get to that point I’ve never beat a map so just wondering what would be the best way to go about beating the story maps? Should I just transfer my charcter or make a new one for every map
Will primitive + come back to ascended?
Probably not
Idk anyone that plays prime+ seems like a dead mode
It didn't work with other mods. Would be more willing to play it if it worked with them
If I start as a game as a non-dedicated, can I load it on single player and go back and forth?
wdym?
Started Island with a friend, non dedicated. Can I just run it as a single player, then hit non-dedicated when he wants to play?
probably, considering when i started as single player then did non dedicated, then switched back
it worked so, i'd think it'd be the other way around too
guys asa will release this friday the trailer will release saturday 2pm
Star field for ASA is going to be harder to run what do y’all think
ye
pretty sure the asa trailer and ark anime show are in area 51 locked behind ohio gates.
game will release before the trailer?
even if he did it still wouldnt be true.
when game drops its gonna be wild west shit
O
ye

Yep
At least, it works for me
I would take a trailer tommorow and the game in 2 weeks tbh I just want something
just thinking the ps store and stuff updates on tuesday, maybe friday as well. so hoping tuesday
It doesn't matter for me I don't get paid till Friday so I'll be waiting regardless😢
steam updates tuesdays as well
i got $20 from the ps stars rewards thing, so only $20 from me for asa
Damn I got a load from spider man and spent it all on r6 credits
dang
What's the most useless ark item?
It's the camera imo
Why do you need a camera when you can just take a screenshot?
you can paint the camera pics onto canvas's for labeling vaults and stuff
I take back my statement
Is pixilated grass normal? I have my render resolution to the max
Welcome to ark
Parachute like when am I ever gonna need that (I have died numerous times being knocked off cliffs or accidentally hitting triangle on my flyer)
will the maps be bigger with asa? or at least the new maps? ue5 should allow it
i think they'll stay the same size sadly
I love the parachute. Saved my life a ton. The compass on the otherhand... Never used one. I can use the map itself, or the GPS.
most useless item is the transponder node, that lets you tag and track your dinos,
your using it wrong
its not for your dinos its for your enemys
tho its buggy as fuck and needs a rework
ive never used it once in my 8k hours of ark
Doubt it the maps are too big I ain't got the patience to fly 2mins every time I need a resourse
yea cause its not great a lot of the time but it has potential
unless they use the transponder in it, ASA is suppost to have a new ui for tracking dinos realtime
Id rather just lock em in a cage
they just gotta plan them well as long as the main rescources are close it should be fine, also you can get from one side of the island to the other with maewings so its not really an issue
i'm so hyped for that dino tracker its gonna be so helpful
sure but u gotta fine thier base somehow
depending how it works, you wont be able to pick up enemy stegos and hide them and stuff like that
If i have asa on steam and on xbox, will i be able to play as the same character from both if one becomes shortly unavalible?
cross progression would be cool
^^^
I've lost my dinos so many times lol
yeah it would be, but if it isn't then it's fine, don't wnat to delay release over a cross progression update
I normally find out when I'm flying around and get nailed by their 6000 turrets set to the highest range not giving me a chance to even mentally process the fact the bird my casual ass spent an hour taming is gone in am instant
hopefully its not to easy to make i feel it should be a later reward (not tek tho)
then thats on u besides the vast majority of players build in caves and ratholes so chances are not who ur looking for
might be a ui thing, like inventory, engrams, etc
i hope not
i want to feel primitive
i'd prefer it honestly, it would still be primitive, but with the QOL
Ik I'm just joking around it's more the ones who have a base in trees and it's like ok that just happened😅
most bases outside caves are a joke to raid more of a blessing in disguise finding free loot like that
If its something like that I think it should be near the gps, with a description saying something like "Uses the strange power from the obelisks to locate the creatures of the island" or some "yada yada yada" stuff.
i would personally prefer an expensive thing u fabricate at late game that updates its location every 5 minutes on ur map or something
ehh the obelisks are not exactly benevolent
Fr but like I said I'm casual ahh so I barely ever get to raiding all that pro stuff looks kinda fun but I ain't got that time or skill or dedication
100% I’d give a Dino to a tribe without a cryo and slap a transponder underneath it and track them back to base
tho maybe if its like the gps where u have coords
That's what I meant, I worded it wrong lol
just gotta hope they dont cryo or upload
I had a few who got away
Won't have to worry ins ASA 😅
yea that would be cool tho i still hope it wont update in real time just every few minutes so its no super op
ahh the good ol days
I see I see
my dino raid train
We also used it when raiding to mark our carryable Dino’s so if they got picked while soaking we knew where they dropped them
also good for purlovias
Question guys I’m new to ark
Does ark ascended update system requirement ? The old post said ue5 minimum 2080s and recommended 3080ti. (https://survivetheark.com/index.php?/forums/topic/692927-what-specs-for-a-pc-could-run-ark-survival-ascended-and-ark-2/)
If I wanted to play out through the whole story how would I go about going to the next map like for the Island to S.E just make a new charcter?
nah
u can "ascend" and its the canon way of moving between maps
if go to an obelisk u can upload and download ur items characeters and tames between maps
You could do that or once you do what you want on one map upload your character go to your desired map and select download survivor
tho if u go to ab it can be tricky to reupload just a warning
I might do the acendinf thing
How does acendinf really work is it like a rebirth?
transfer character and one tame
I was thinking that but what about when I get to ab and I don’t have enough engrams to learn the rock climbing thing
So when you ascend you gain 5-15 levels per final boss
And your specimen implant looks different.
5 levels for gamma 10 levels for beta and 15 for alpha
Or not enough engrams to learn very important recipes for those specific maps
So it just add levels to your cap
yeah
Is there a cap on that
yeah
you could go into ini and make it where you get enough engrams
Like can I ascend 15 on the island then can I acend 15 on S.E. and etc
No 2080 is 100% not going to be the minimum for asa it should be able to run on worse machines then ase can
yup
You don't ascend on gen 2 and extinction iirc
Gotcha so on maps I can’t acend I should just transfer my charcter but leave everything behind
Max lvl is 200 or something like that with all notes runes and anceions
You can still beat the finale boss
Ascending doesn't automatically transfer you to another map.
You have to upload your character after you ascend and do what you want.
Yeah I mean after I beat the boss

after fight youll download survivor an youll be good
Gotcha so I’ll just beat every boss on every map
Before I move onto the next so before I leave the island I gotta get all the notes beat all the bosses
whatever u have on you
see if your pc can lords of the fallen 2023. If you cna that then should be able to run asa
The notes aren't required but you can if you want too.
And go to the next map with no gear and tame fresh start but keep the orginal charcters
Well I wanna learnt eh story and 90% of it is in the notes
you can take stuff to next map if you want or start fresh up to you
You keep your levels (you gotta re apply them) iirc
keep survivor so you dont lose implant form beating previous bosses
Only problem with taking stuff is after The island there is no real grind
Just at that point just speed running the bosses
yea so up to you. if you wanna alpha on each island starting fresh each time, that will be a grind
But will feel nice when I see the end screen on gen 2
Probably going take me a year to finish all of it tho
If not longer
would def be an achievement
Just gotta give myself an end goal so I don’t burn out
gamma or beta on all arks not so bad though with fresh starts
How hard would alpha every map fresh start besides charcter
With SP settings on
I would suggest playing through asa. That way the maps themselves will give you plenty of time to play each one. as they will becoming out quarterly
100's of hours each map cos u need some serious dinos for alpha bosses
mutating for stats every map
if doin legit will take forever
Really even with SP on ?
That's why I'm sticking to gamma 😂
I might just gamma every boss then
Cause at most I’d wanna spend 50HRs per map
I don’t like the whole grinding Dino eugenics part of the game tbh
gamma and crank down baby stuff to breed them fast
yea you will not beat the game then. Because ext and up maps require breeding
Oh I’m fine with breeding
I’m just talking about the insane mutations grind
oh gotcha
if you dont do dino genetics/mutations you will never beat the harder bosses so stick to gamma
Yeah I’m just going stick with gamma cause I’m ok with breeding but I don’t wanna take 100S of hours trying to breed the perfect mutated Dino
Just a very very good one but not a min maxed full mutant Dino
Sense I’m fresh starting every map
just need clean breeders to start (all dinos have same stats) then breed until you get a boy with the stat you want an swap him out for the dad rinse repeat
The rinse repeat part is what will take the HOURS of grind
Cause isn’t the mutations you’ll be wanting pure RNG?
I'm agaisnt that idea but you guys do you 💀
it is rng but lots of females to make lots of babies helps with the rng
Gamma I can do that but I won’t need the min max T. rex just good breed line of Dino’s?
yes its a grind but seriously OP an is rather satisfying once you first wrap your head around it
haha fair enough
Gamma I just need max level Dino’s right?
gamma youll be fine get some good level dinos and decent saddles and youll be sweet as
Like you said get a good base line for the breeding grind could I just use the baseline Dino’s as my boss fighters at gamma level or would I still need to breed a few down a line just not as much
careful when you say max level they max have heaps of points in food or oxygen an have wasted stats so catch a few "max level" dinos an pick the one with the best stats an breed those good stats into your little army
if that makes sense
Yeah I have that app telling me the optimal Stat lines you wnat from a wild max level for a base line
dont need optimal for gamme just semi decent
I’m just curious with that taming grind will that be enough for gamma lebel or should I breed them down a line or 2
gamma*
decent dino's an breed up your little army correct with some decent saddles you will be fine
The blueprint grind will be insane tho
Cause idk if I wanna touch the engram values I get per level
Cause I wouldn’t wanna know how to balance that around with acentjon give me extra levels and I like the idea of having to find engrams for stuff I don’t have the points to get if that makes sense
worse get an ok bp drink a mindwipe tonic put points into crafting skill craft saddles then when you can use another mindwipe an puts ur stats back the way they were
worse case*
Trailer out yet 💀🫡
nah its wildcard
you dont need max stuff for gamma just semi ok/decent stuff

Would you suggest messing with the engram per level thing or does SP settings already fix that?
dont expect a trailer at all honestly
just completely get rid of any expectations
So I’m not caught out on ab without the points to get the rock climbing and etc stuff you need for specific maps
you playing offline solo?
Yeah
just unlock engrams then
then no issues
or heaps of engram points however u wanna do it
True but I feel like if I unlock all the engrams it kinda invalidates the level grind
well then dont lol
I just need to find a good mix I guess
meet in the middle
Time to reasearch how many engrams are in the game
Then try to firgure out a good middle ground
Yeah I would be disappointed if nothing comes from ASA but we always have ASE
anything on twitter?
well normal amount you cant unlock everything like vanilla styles but i dont see an issue with engrams unless they are locked behind bosses unlock those yourself
then thats legit
like most tek stuff is locked behind bosses armor, replicator,transmitter, skiff, tek bow etc
just waiting for this to crash my ps5
Is there a way I can keep boss engrams locked but give myself like 85% of the engrams I need once I’m max level
Like still have all the useless cosmetic stuff locked but the essential stuff like fabricators saddles and such
yea pretty sure thats in the engrams tab thingy before you launch offline solo ark
Why do I stop flying when I put mjolnir away?
Does Offline SP setting do a good enough job at balancing the game r should I. Mess around with soem setting like taming speed and such
Cause I don’t want instant tame or breed but I also don’t wnat official times where I’m waiting actual days for tames and births
Sense I can’t keep my computer on the entire time for that
you should def tweak the tame speeds an stuff until you are happy
@zinc halo you could make some quality of life improvements to speed taming or harvest amounts if that's what would make the game more enjoyable
I just want a good mix of difficulty and reward
If I hit 1 tree and get all the wood I’ll ever need then no gratification for what I have built
literally just log in try it go back to menu tweak load back in try again until you are happy
Max difficulty and max level dinos are the best
makes boss fights too easy an he might struggle to tame high level stuff with stupid amounts of torpor with a 100% longneck at first
unless he tweaks how much torpor an everything else list goes on lol
I’ll just have to mess around with stuff
I don’t wanna change to many settings just enough to make the game bare able to play but not to easy
That's true but I like being eaten by 180s🤣 makes me realize even at level 190 I'm not shit
I am so exited to play ASA
same
Dude it’s going to be so sick
agreed
I have played ark for years and I have always wanted the graphics to be better and all these new features look so cool especially the new models and cross platform
i mean graphics now arent terrible but yes i also wanna see some high res dinos lol keen for everything they have said just hope they shed some light soon they know we are all waiting
Yeah fr I have been waiting for a trailer or gameplay for so long and I hope this week it’s just that
Why are ppl looking for tribes on asa when it’s not even out yet
does any one know if the raft physics will be fixed in asa?
Wait is asa out?
no
So why are people acting like there playing it
I know but they should do that when they are actually able to play
Jesus Christ 🤦♂️
Update yo facts boi.. game literally drops in like a week 🙃
I’m excited
@heavy cedar are you still going to be able to cheese the boss with kangaroos
@heavy cedar can we please still cheese the boss with kangaroo
Wouldn't you prefer them to fix the shit show of a game it use to be?
No
gamers these days man. Cheese everything, rush everything, quit within 2 weeks.
wens dis bih coming out
Noob question, what’s the difference between steam Ark and Microsoft ark? Also can Microsoft still play with steam players at launch or ASA? (Basically my friend has Xbox so to play with him I need Microsoft version, but I’m told steam is better) thankyou
Dont forget being as toxic as possible to kill the game for everyone else too
Part of the game’s experience.
When you've ran bosses a thousand times... You wanna cheese it lol
That too, and cheat your way to victory in pvp
You are wrong.
Cheesing is not a game experience
I am never wrong, I won an award for that 1977.
MW3 or ASA ?
1977 how much ganja is the only question needed.
Like, four?
Cooked mate.
Idk if I should just sleep and wait until ASA leaks or go make some banging breakfast at 04:30.
Actual item textures when you drop items in ASA? pls WC
Something cooked would be right now, I am starving.
they have had 8 years to do that, they arent going to start now
That adds a lot of extra server load
Example tarkov server loads
Fair but nice to think about
I just want high quality dinos to violate with no bugs, item textures for dropped items is the least of my worries.
it is, there was a mod for it, nice to add to private or single player games
I should add that
And all I want is no cheaters in official pvp 😛
Too much to ask for ;P
100%
I swear spinos are so annoying to tame
One could dream.
not happning
there will be cheats out within the first few days
private ones
but public ones a little later
Can you guys please leave cheating or hacking in pvp please
no
Plssss
go back to pve channel
blud pve is more toxic than pvp and u expect them to not hack?

What does it matter to pve players. Your not going to have a speed giga do anything to you?
cant wait to see tea back on the main cluster again
PLEASE NO!
well i doubt there is going to be conquest at launch right?
#bansnailgames
because it means the game comes out within 24hours
its been 3 years since ark 2 was announced we have only got a screenshot of gameplay
and it wasnt ark 2
Ark 2, I'd understand the community need for gameplay trailer
It's a totally different game from ase
But asa.. it's the same game, generally.
its still a seperate game and wildcard hasnt inspired a lot of trust recently so people are skeptical
I'm fine with screenshots, as long as they're not filtered with 3rd party
Ark 2 will be in beta for 5 years, and I would wager real money the same bugs will still be there that were there in ASE. Not to mention the meshing, etc
It's a marketing strategy I swear. They just keep teasing us and they will drop it and we will buy it without any consideration.
It's all the same maps though.. all the same dinos with same mechanics. Screw a trailer. Make sure the game is ready for launch.
theyve done this before, its highly effective as they dont need a new audience just ark fans meaning it spreads on its own
I'm gonna buy it 100%.
yea thats not happening gonna be a buggy mess
Yeah true, Scorched earth comes to mind
They dropped the map with no notice.
That is why i keep checking steam
Ye, but I'm thinking that'll be more of a ue5 thing.. seeing as it's relatively new.
SE was fun when it came out. Dying every 10 mins d/t heat and no water 🥺
in all fairness scorched release added more content than asa sooo hopefully asa launch goes well
The rhino pvp was amazing
skill issue tbh
Can't wait for it.
Hyped for Asa ngl
Mantis op
hard not to be
underated as fuck
Pachy is more fun.
Just pisses me off we gotta pay for dlc's again
I'm just hoping for stable servers and smooth performance.. not perfect, but enough to enjoy the game
no
Nah all dlc will be free I believe
no
I'm just hyped for the new creatures, graphics, better handling and cooler stuff
There will be 2 new story maps that we have to pay for tho
this week
OH
Well don’t be pissed because it’s included 😂
I've been playing modded pve past week and half.. on caballus. I low-key hope it doesn't become a dlc map
no date yet just a lot of comments about this week being special
what day this week? tues?
so friday at what time? 1 pm et?
Comes out anytime from now till the 31st
mod idea the resource drops open an hlna store?
Friday is optimal from a cashflow pov
They don't charge for non story maps
Tbh I REALLY don't think it's Friday, I feel like it will ve midweekend
Fire to know
Most people get paid on fridays and it becomes their weekends
It should be midweek
We don't need a midweek release
nah cause the download means a lot of peopel wont be able to play till later
I ain't trying to call in sick for work LMAO
just no call no show :ez:
I'm thinking Wednesday. Because they don't work on the weekend. How are you going to adress the early issues if you are not working...
Your right about that, all honesty though if it's another 400gb of space ima be pissed
What gives you idea they give a sh*t about that lol
It’s only the island launching
@dreamy spear I did that a couple months ago. Worked there for 5 years then decided not to show up again. They randomly showed up again almost 2 months after
it wont be
oh so only 350 gigs then
does anyone know what the difference is between this ark discord server and the other ark discord server?
Right
I'm sure they will compress the game this time.
Yep 👍
you have way too much hope
one is real one is fake idk if this is the real one or the fake one
This one is official.
It's ark we're talking about
Are yous actually buying steam edition tho?
PlayArk is the real discord?
this is a studio that makes mistakes, and doesnt learn from them or acknowledge them
If the file says shooter game I'm going to laugh so hard.
Fr
this is the real discord
Look at the sidebar. It will help
what time does asa release on friday?
mate there is not release date
It releases at 14:78.
I'd prefer steam, but considering crossplay will be locked for who knows how long, afraid I'll need to go windows 10 to play with the boys
No official release date
78 on top
13 o clock pm
Fob up 316 lets go
Cant wait for 800% flak day 1, aimboting and duping with mass server roll backs an bans 👍
Rush Hour is coming back. 777
LOL you think there will be 800 dura from island your crazy
umm if tea exists there will be
they will spawn it in with admin commands
If wild card lets that happen I'm out so fast
I'm not dealing with that shit again
I wonder if cryos are gone for good, or just reserved for a later release
they have always let it happen
crossplay locked till december for steam
they dont get to not let it happen, they are owned by snailgames
I'd prefer the soul balls mod, something similar
reserved till ext comes out
Yeah, that's jokes.. windows 10 trash it is then. I prefer steam for the download servers. Soo fast for me
One day they will be free.
lol, they are really just gonna delay all the new features
I have heard that alot. What makes it so bad?
Ark died the day wildcard picked sg
who knows I am jsut happy with a new ark
It's a bit slower.. I'd say at least 25%
wouldnt call it new, its just a new paintjob
bro have you not seen the change log and stuff added
dear god
On steam, I can install ark with dlc in under 2 hours, close to 1.. on windows 10, it's a couple
Granted, I have paid dlc on Xbox/windows 10
But I know W10 is limited compared to steam. We talking bytes
huh, just tamed an amargasaurus. wasn't as bad as i was afraid it'd be
Probably would have been better to get it in the ice biome instead of the lava biome for no reason other than denser carnivore population. we had to do a lot of hiking to find prey
Anybody recommend some good mods? I just began doing modded and I’m struggling to find good ones
Ark Additions
Well, S+ i guess is a good foundational one but everyone's going to suggest it, so Ark Additions after that
Alright, gonna explore the cave east to Grand Hill and see what nasty surprises await me there
AA has a lot of dinosaurs that have very official-level quality, with cool abilities and whatnot
Does anyone know if there are any servers worth joining today?
If you're intending on playing on Aberration, Additional Aberrant Dinos is another one I use, for some more variety
I cannot wait for aberration....
Ark Additions does have the pitfall in that it really likes to have "Unique" taming mechanics and a lot of the time those mechanics are extremely frustrating- Acro taming can get really annoying really fast if you're not in the exact right terrain to line up their mouth hitbox to shove biotoxin in there
today is this week
you guys think it’s coming this week?
100% this week
how you know i don’t think it will, we might get a trailer this week
because of 2 of the FAQ on the survivetheark website under ARK asa notes
how do i find it
Yo where ascended at
the dev server
Jump and jump
When ark comin out blud
Soon™️
Some time this week with what dollie said
ASA obv. A desk is easily replaced by a floor 
Fr plus ASA is cheaper
can asa theretically come out whenever this week?
yes
does anyone know if there has been information regarding tether distance in multiplayer? i hope it's removed or can be changed :(
Theoretically yes. Will it? No. More towards the end of the week
It could be in the next hour for all we know
ok but most likely when a communiy crunch happens or sum?
Can someone test something on the ark-unity.com website?
Go to crafting calculator and select tek canteen.... does it glitch out for you?
It does glitch out
Everything else seems to be ok so far
Is it true ur gonna be able to track dinos in asa
Lets go
We have wildcard trust issues
Dam I cant log into my account to raise a ticket for that website
Can anyone here raise a ticket please so at least something works on release
@heavy cedar your websites broken lol
Thats not an official WC site 
Welp, I should have set my home security to Attack Target rather than Neutral (either that or should have checked whether or not it was set to Passive or to Neutral), because I just lost a 200+ level Megatherium to a level 40 dire bear
Isnt it? didnt know
check the bottom of the page.
That’s how they get you
what if there was a dlc for ab pre destruction
Can someone explain to me how to effectively breed dinosaurs?
Instant buy
still no realease date?
jsut gotta assume its the 31st
30 and 31st are pretty much not gonna be it
as thats next week not this week
go watch youtube its complex

what does the week have anything to do with it?
Just breed the same level dino until you get a higher level dino
Pretty sure thats how it works
hahahaha we all wish this was the case
its confusing as hell and takes a long time to actually get it down
I would recommend a full guide on breeding.
to get a good grasp the guide should be at least an hour
I thought thatd how it worked it just rarely happened
I think it’s because Friday’s crunch says “We're looking forward to the week ahead, it's gonna be a fun one! 😉” so it appears the game is coming out this week and not the following week
That’s my assumption too
It does work like that… essentially. But that’s like the most basic and least effective way to do it. The advanced ways of breeding are WAY more effective, just takes a lot of preparation at the start and time later on
1.1 when
no there's a ton of mutation stats you have to track, keeping your perfect male stock, making sure the muts don't go into useless stats, resetting the mut counters so you dont hit the limit, etc
its typically not worth the hassle to go fully into it, just going as the numbers gets bigger is usually good enough
Oh yeah i wasnt including mutations
...thats like 50% of the point of breeding
But its easy to track with incubator
damn i wish, all the servers i play on dont have the incubator
ahh yya maybe i guess
Yall ps5 players soft
Русские есть?
SOON tm
I think its because they're gonna do reveals
Game prob releases not this friday but the next one
Hopefully your not right but we are just guessing lol
Either one is fine. Gonna be fun to see how it all works out
ASA delayed until xmas season
well the wildcard did say it would releas late october which is mid next week
they said october
likely same day release
they have done it several times in the past
Wildcard said a lot of things
Oh hey, carnivore island has a cave
That I didn't know
Mid next week is November though
early
wait till you find out about the ocean
lol
Fingers crossed 🤞
ye :/ we can only hope🤞
You mean the caves found in the ocean? I wanna get myself a strong basil before I can tackle the jellyfish and a tuso for everything else there
Im gonna mis having a Desmodius*. Was so good at cave spelunking
Fml anyone else having the dream running to their base spots first day , trying to get a bed down without dying ect aha
lol
Literally had 4hours sleep lol
xD
Trying to think of a nice spot to make a base... kinda want to do redwoods sinces its shortest distance from caves.
ill prob do hidden lake or smth like that
I should start a single player game and explore some spots.
Hidden lake is the one with the beaver spawns right? Kinda at ne of the map?
ye its good or the lake in the redwoods
I'm Bobing it by red above the artifact cave ... easier to walk Dino's to red ob
easy cem paste right outside ur base
ye
That spot is cozy af for sure... and awe shit thats right.... jumping across arks will be a thing when SE drops xD
seeing as there wont be any cryos
lol
Yep it's near resources too
ye
Damn.... gotta think now. Obs will most likely be jam packed around them. Can use supply drops still i hope xD. May lock a spawn in with a makeshift metal plat
Make it open so others can use it and stuff.
im excited to tame my first raptor
Lol first suicidal PT to get an argi for old day drinding
For sure. They look amazing in asa. May be fun to breed and mutate them. Im curious how all the color templates are gonna look too.
lol
ye imagine a mutated ue5 raptor
ppl will prob build on brontos day 1 bc theres no cryos
Fml grinding
No more magmasaurs for a bit lol. We grinding boys!
Didn't think I'd find something worth taming in my trip to carnivore island, but hey, I'm glad to score a level 125 argy, especially with purple plumage as opposed to what's more standard
lol
lol
Well then, a sabertooth managed to attack it long enough to reduce taming effectiveness to 38%
Can't win them all I suppose
Though I suppose I could have taken the time to chop down a few of the trees and make some spike walls
any trailer?
nope
can i transfer a undedicated ark server to my friends pc? (if so how?)
i mean
u could just send over the ark map and player data, just all the data the server ahs on ur world. If he starts a server with those files
how do i do that like what files?
err
