[sick frigate]

mb i got confused lol

[robust glen]

If it keeps saying you arent logged in there is no other way I know

[foggy scaffold]

Yeah it's happening here as well, not sure what is going on, but a restart is imminent lol

[robust glen]

Don't forget sharing accounts is over

[tough yarrow]

Steam is doing maintenance, give it 30 or so minutes

[robust glen]

So it's steam doing maintenance, I had no idea.

[tough yarrow]

Same day and time every week

[sick frigate]

oh alr

[cinder lintel]

And this is the ONE time I fly around in the Scorched desert. I'm usually in my base, but noooo, not this time, lol.

[tough yarrow]

Ofc

[tough yarrow]

Should be back now

@sick frigate^

[cinder lintel]

Thank you!

[novel sand]

They need to bring back how cryo pods used to be, it’s killing the pvp servers like actually

[cinder lintel]

nope, not back for me yet

[tough yarrow]

You're welcome. It usually only lasts 30 minutes and it's the same time every day unless they've got some major update going. Just give it a few.

[ember valve]

Fr

[cinder lintel]

ok, they're back, thanks again!

Wow. I can't believe I didn't die. When I got back in there, I was being attacked by like 6 snakes and two athros, lol

[fickle idol]

does anyone here play on amissa and know where oil is? preferably rocks...and on land?

[vernal glacier]

Anyone having player crashes on scorched? Mostly Xbox

[errant lance]

if I use a mod to allow gigantopithecus to use tools, will that make them better harvesters than mantis?

because their quick attack has more base dmg than mantis

[craggy sierra]

So I've been stuck in local chat for some reason. Pressing enter is the only button that brings up the chat and it puts me in local, and pressing tab does nothing

[uneven wyvern]

[silent matrix]

Character making screen is still blurry and fuzzy on Xbox, damn

[buoyant forge]

Weird

Try scissors. I edited myself a week or so ago and wasn’t blurry. Also play on series s

[polar owl]

You have to go into the radial wheel where you can go into third person, I think on the right side of the wheel somewhere it lets you alter your chat location

[craggy sierra]

Wait what radial wheel, im on PC? The only one I know of it the emotes thats not from a creature of structure

[polar owl]

I’m on Xbox so it may be different, but if you hold the map button, a radial wheel should come up and it’s on the left side of that wheel

Should be a tab that says “chat mode,” then after you enter that it has the options

[silent matrix]

What do you mean and I do play on Series S

[buoyant forge]

Assuming you’re playing ascended the scissors allow you to edit your char appearance. Aka do everything you do when creating besides changing gender

[silent matrix]

ASA yes and okay thanks

[buoyant forge]

Np. They added the feature a month or so ago.

[silent matrix]

Okay appreciate it

[broken garden]

Anyone else been getting anti meshed like fuck since this update?

[scenic cipher]

Any word on premium mods for consoles or still in cert? Hopin to play some 7d2d-mode w/ a couple console friends before Destiny expansion lol

[tough yarrow]

Any news will be in #announcements

[silent matrix]

anyone else having issues joining ark servers on console? (ps5/xbox series s)

[scenic cipher]

Roger, seems like Tuesdays is the update day and last Tuesday was the last we heard so wasn't sure if I missed an announcement elsewhere

[robust glen]

I'm fine on official servers, didn't had any problems. If you can't see the servers choose show all on filter @silent matrix

[silent matrix]

no issues on that but my unofficial servers are all working except for one. Everyone that joins it while being on a console gets frozen screen upon joining then an instant crash

i was hoping that the update they did for pc would fix it but im not sure when would they release the same for console

[robust glen]

Isn't because of the mods?

Dedicated servers usually are laggy

[silent matrix]

no not the mods because the rest servers have the same i have 4 servers in the cluster 3 working but that one

[robust glen]

Oh I see it's unofficial.

[silent matrix]

working on pc players tho

[robust glen]

Is the server updated?

[silent matrix]

yeah unofficial

and yes updated

[robust glen]

Try talking to the mods. I hope you can fix the issue

[silent matrix]

thank you i tried everything to no avail unfortunately

[robust glen]

Can you help him @slate widget ?

[slate widget]

everybody crashes when they join on console? even new survivors?

[silent matrix]

even new accounts yes we tried different accounts etc nothing works but on pc it does after the update

no issues at all for pc

[slate widget]

did steam crash before the update?

[silent matrix]

i am not sure actually but its working fine now on pc also on series x it works well but on ps5 and series s crashes

pc (steam)

[silent matrix]

do you know if maybe that update is for this issue or a different thing?

[slate widget]

says it was a client only update. last server update was on the 9th

if series X works but not ps5 and series S. it may be mod related. are all 4 servers the same map as well?

[silent matrix]

it might be that not sure cause ps5 and series s is having issues? idrk ive been trying to find a solution even contacted nitrado at 12am for me its now 10am still no resolution

[silent matrix]

we have 2 same maps island 1 and 2 island 2 we can join fine

but island 1 insta crash

[slate widget]

could be something on the map.

[silent matrix]

any idea what could be causing it because we did a rollback from hours before it started happening but still nothing

[slate widget]

probably not on the map then.

if its exclusively series S and ps5 then its probably outside your control. either mod errors or just base ark stuff.

[silent matrix]

im not really sure tho if its mods because island 2 has the same exact stuff and are working fine tho

im running out of ideas how to go about this

[slate widget]

just like any bug. they don't happen everytime.

[silent matrix]

any idea how we can get it resolved?

because i cant join my own server now

[slate widget]

my only idea is the map itself but since you did a rollback from before its unlikely to be that.
if settings, mods, etc. are the same its either a random bug from something or something on the nitrado server but that'd be unlikely to cause specific devices to crash.

[silent matrix]

yeah idrk what could be causing it anymore. everything is working fine on the other servers i even resetted my own console to factory and still didn't work

i reached out to nitrado and they couldn't really provide any assistance about it saying it could be mods even after telling them that the other island server with exact same everything is working fine. i also cant backup the server and put it on another because im on a chromebook

[verbal skiff]

Is there some sort of forum for help using the devkit?

like outside of this discord i mean

[silent matrix]

there's a separate server for ark mods

[verbal skiff]

would you happen to have that link?

[silent matrix]

you'll need to verify you own the game using steam to join it tho i think

i dont unfortunately but i found it on a reddit thread before

[verbal skiff]

thats wild lol. I play on ps

[slate widget]

there is also #1167978209246195733 and the rest

[silent matrix]

welp there you go lmao

[verbal skiff]

yyeeahh this discord hasn't been very helpful with any issues ive had in the past so im not really sure theres many modders here that actually look at those lol

which is why i was hoping for a forum elsewhere

[slate widget]

you may need to get the mod news role to talk in it id:customize

[slate widget]

basically every mod author has their own discord. you have plenty to choose from.

[verbal skiff]

Issue is not every mod is willing to hep out lol. I'm in a few, but only one is helpful tbh xD

[slate widget]

yeah, not everybody wants to help. they are more for their own mods.

[verbal skiff]

pretty much.

[dry forge]

this last patch sucks, cant even log in, wtf

[robust glen]

Change filters to all

[dusk cloud]

have they imrpoved the performance on this game yet?

havent checked in for months sorry

[robust glen]

Go back, return and refresh, also choose show all maps @dry forge

[tough widget]

Anyone else game crash when trying to play? it wont even show the title screen just black screen and says fatal error crash Unhandled Exception. Anyone know a fix?

[dry forge]

The game is crashing with a splitscreen error, it has nothing to do with whatever you're talking about

[dry forge]

This is what is happening to me too

[robust glen]

Are you both using mods?

[tough widget]

Its horrible

[dry forge]

no

[dusk cloud]

finally giving up on this game

[tough widget]

No offical

[robust glen]

Try to check if some of the mods have conflict

[dry forge]

i was online an hour or two ago, now its this

the suggestions you are giving are not helpful, at all.

[robust glen]

I am on xbox official no issues today

[dry forge]

There are no mods, its official.

[robust glen]

At least I'm trying

I'm just a gamer

[tough widget]

same I think its a steam thing

[robust glen]

There was some issues today with steam

[dry forge]

i got dc'd and couldnt get back on after being on for hours, hours after the patch released

[robust glen]

It has nothing to do with ark

[dry forge]

i'm sure its steam, but i dont get what the issue is

[tough widget]

Yup same here about 2 hours after the update.

[dry forge]

i mean, their update and now people cant log in, its definately something on their end, even if steam is a contributing factor.

its an issue across the ark boards

You dont even know what error or crash that we're getting, so that is a bold assumption.

[tough widget]

I hope it gets fixed soon thanks for the info folks. I appreciate yall.

[dry forge]

i have a tribemate who is feeding/etc, thankfully I'm not solo.

[robust glen]

I hope it will be fixed soon @tough widget

[tough widget]

Fingers and toes crossed XD my scorpions and penguins need me

[robust glen]

I hope you have a strong dino to protect them

[tough widget]

Oh yeah the boss moose and allos do that job XD

[silent matrix]

Hope it's fixed soon IV got 80 juvenile tusos out

[tough widget]

For your and your squids i hope so too.

[silent matrix]

Those things eat like 5 troughs an hour

[tough widget]

Oof you got a bunch out?

[silent matrix]

80

There not ffas either all my imprint I hope it's fixed soon

[brittle spindle]

I don’t know if this is where I should ask, but is the save bug fixed on Xbox I’ve been wanting to play it, but I don’t want to lose progress. On the single player

[polar rivet]

Hey does ASA have any big changes to crypods?

[rapid hearth]

anybody wants to play?

[covert path]

Guys, are you also trying this problem?crashes at startup

[buoyant forge]

Havnt seen anyone talk about it for awhile so would assume so.

[buoyant forge]

Compared to ase? Yes you have to be in range of a cyro fridge. Do they plan to make changes? Prolly not

[exotic spindle]

so i have a bug question and i know this isnt the bug report channel but i didnt want the headache of going through there and waiting for a response. The problem is this: I was mutating gigantaraptors in melee, and im 12 points in atm and now all my offspring are mutating 12 points into speed for what ever reason instead of continuing in melee. Has anyone else come across this in asa?

[gritty crow]

Is "Attack My Target" an all dino command? i.e. if someone hits it it changes all dinos in area?

[cosmic umbra]

no

[polar rivet]

What the f*ck... seriously? That massively nerfs em n removes one of the main purposes they serve. Rip.

[fading ice]

they were not even meant to be in the game until extinction, but people were crippling servers with dino spam

[buoyant forge]

Main purpose was to limit clutter. They grew into poke balls

[polar rivet]

Yea pokeballs is what I thought of em. But I guess they are just storage now unless you wanna carry around a fridge in your pocket lmao

[polar rivet]

Oh I see. Maybe they'll change em back once extinction comes then 🤔

[buoyant forge]

Main effects are caves and pvp. Other than that it’s nothing crazy of a loss

[main jasper]

ADVISE NEEDED
I tamed two Titanoboas and placed them inside a small 2x3 fenced area (fence foundations, walls 3 blocks high) inside the swamp, in hope to farm some eggs. But no eggs. Can someone advise me what I do wrong? I can make screenshots, but screenshot posting is disabled here. Please PM me. Thanks.

[potent ibex]

is a phoenix faster than awild wyvern?

like boosting of course

[stray panther]

Can anyone on Xbox not load into their single player server without immediately crashing? It’s happening to both me and my friend when we try to join our own single player servers. We’ve tried uninstalling our mods but that didn’t fix it.

[silent matrix]

Guys which weapons gives topor but doesnt do much damage

Because my meele damage is high and i wanna add topor to my unconscious Tek Quetzal

[polar rivet]

feed it narcotics

[silent matrix]

I dont got it its a emergency

Im far from home

[polar rivet]

um narcoberries :p

or uh stun baton thingy, I forgor what its called

[polar rivet]

um are they female?

[silent matrix]

Tek Quetzal tamed what a Fat Www

[potent ibex]

my high melee rock golem is gettign a ton of wood. 100more than my lower one. I thought the melee stat only dictates how fast you gather, not get more one per tree.

[ancient remnant]

how to fix with censored on xbox console?

https://cdn.survivetheark.com/uploads/monthly_2024_04/image.png.8a5e71082076bd3df6296cf9817b36da.png

[hollow cove]

Guys wtf is wrong with the forum filtering I'm tryna find good pvp xbox servers and it's not showing what gives?

[main jasper]

They have no gender, not male nor female.

[winged hamlet]

are you looking to have a superior kibble farm?

because moschops are easier to tame

[main jasper]

No, I need the Titanoboa eggs to feed something with them. On an unofficial serer.

[inner grove]

does anyone know how a level 5 theri one taped me while i was riding a raptor I died instantly not my raptor though

[winged hamlet]

what do you specifically need snake eggs for?

[winged hamlet]

theriz bite attack can damage the rider

the raptor lived because you are a squishy human

[inner grove]

do dimorphs do the same? cause i also got one taped by one of them too

[winged hamlet]

dimorphs and vultures can damage riders yes

[inner grove]

alr good to know thanks

[winged hamlet]

and microraptor will fly at riders and stun you if you dont kill them in time

[elder arch]

And poison wyvern's breath can damage you too.
If you on scorched.

[honest ibex]

You can’t Xbox is censored, PlayStation is censored lol

[fervent ibex]

I hate new ark

[novel cloud]

i hate my argy

i set it to passive flee and it didnt flee at all

it just stood there and then it got killed by a brachi because of the stomp attack

is there a way to rollback singleplayer saves

[winged hamlet]

not unless you have a manual save copy

ark isnt a game you can just savescum on

[novel cloud]

guess its over then because that was a really high level argy

😭

[winged hamlet]

there will be other argys

helps to find a couple high levels and breed them

that way you have backups

[novel cloud]

ark really is a game that tests your patience

[winged hamlet]

its a game that will punish mistakes

[novel cloud]

real

[silent matrix]

How can i knock a rock golem? Everytime i shoot with a rpg it kills him anyone knows how ?

[blazing vault]

Anyone that plays in Geforce having the same issue that its not letting them get in ark?
Me and some tribe members that play in geforce its not letting us get in ark

[novel cloud]

I shut off my pc right after I lost my argy and it ROLLED BACK to my last login

im so happy rn my argy is back

[silent matrix]

Can you do that???

[novel cloud]

I remember zany zebra doing it in one of his ark videos

I'm not sure if it works on ASA though

[silent matrix]

Well rip my 3 wyverns i lost

All of them fell on the lava 😭

[novel cloud]

i mean as long as you didnt log out when ur wyverns died

then u might be able to roll it back but im not sure if it will work for you

[silent matrix]

It happened 4 days ago so i lost them

[novel cloud]

oh yikes ggs man

[silent matrix]

No worries i incubated 2 wyverns back

But you made my life easier with this information

[novel cloud]

That's better unlike me because I have only one argy

[silent matrix]

But seriously anyone know why i cant knock a rock golem everytime i shoot it with rpg

[silent matrix]

What map you playing?

[novel cloud]

The island

I have all the other story maps

[silent matrix]

I dont think theres wyverns or drakes on the island

[novel cloud]

But I'm playing them in order just to know the story a bit better

[obtuse shuttle]

Is it giving a fatal error?

[novel cloud]

There are none on the island

[silent matrix]

The island dont really got much interesting creatures only the Og dinos

[blazing vault]

Yea

[silent matrix]

@blazing vault hey bro you know why i kill rock golems instead of knocking when i use rpg?

Ive been wanting to tame one but i keep killing them

[blazing vault]

your probably hitting its body not his head

if you miss his head he gets alot of damage you have to hit the head

[silent matrix]

Ahhhhh

[obtuse shuttle]

It seems like it's only on Steam, there's a guy here with the same problem

[blazing vault]

and its better to use a cannon with a trap

[blazing vault]

its not steam its geforce

it keeps saying EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION reading address 0x0000000000000030

cannon knocks out golem much faster

[silent matrix]

The topor time really dont matter for me because ill use extraordinary kibble

[silent matrix]

But they so expensive to use

But Ill do it faster because i have a Tek quetzal and i can put a cannon on it

[blazing vault]

youtu.be/2SeDfjMwicE?si=qX3HHhRkX0cbijFR

i recomend you using that trap in that video

[silent matrix]

Appreciate it

[blazing vault]

ive been using it and it works so good ive already tamed like 10 with it

[silent matrix]

My problem is not taming it’s knocking him

[blazing vault]

its easy to knock it down with that trap

because it stops it from throwing the rock at you

[silent matrix]

I have a trick where i make him stare at my ptera because he cants attack it and he will be frozen

And i will shoot it with cannons

[blazing vault]

oh yea that works too

[obtuse shuttle]

I'm playing Xbox on geforce and it's normal

Strange

[blazing vault]

yea that is starnge

[obtuse shuttle]

Has this started now or has it been a few days?

[silent matrix]

But if i steal wyverns eggs to cook it for the extraordinary egg will the egg spawn again on the trenches?

Because im thinking taming a wyvern later on

[blazing vault]

yes

every time you pick up a egg a new one spawns diffrent lvl

[winged hamlet]

an egg can spawn when a wyvern spawns in

you dont get a new egg whenever you take one or there would be endless eggs

[sullen edge]

What’s the crack with dying to anti mesh when you’re swimming in open waters.its happened 3 times

[deft grove]

Who wants to do all bosses with me

[white temple]

Türk varmı hiç ?

[charred spoke]

it's crazy that a bug reported almost a year ago still isn't fix (throw object doesn't work for some non english keyboards)

[hallow ivy]

Will they give me a raise too?

[deft grove]

what

[robust glen]

Hi @tough yarrow transfers to Scorched earth will open in 1st of June right?

I don't hink it will immediately spawn a new egg. Imagine if a lot of players picked all the eggs almost at the same time. It takes time for resources to spawn again

At least on ase official crystal isles it wasn't like this

Same in ragnarok

Yes indeed, both on ase or asa it is better to use a cannon to put golem to sleep, on ase you can use pt and put him on passive, golem with stare at him and you can put him to sleep if you dont miss the shots

[tough yarrow]

Around there, yes.

[robust glen]

Thanks

[bright moon]

my game keeps freezing and kicking me out on asa (how to fix )

[robust glen]

You don't need a tek quetzal bro, you can use an argi carrying your structures, then place them close to the golem when you spot him

Are you on ase, asa, single player @bright moon ?

[bright moon]

asa multi

[robust glen]

Some mods cause conflict

What is multi?

[bright moon]

multiplayer

[robust glen]

All are multiplayer

official, unofficial, single player

I have no issues I'm on official now and on single player the same, all fine on xbox

#bug-reports

I can't help you with this lack of information, try to contact a mod and good luck

[bright moon]

unofficial

[buoyant goblet]

Running alpha manticore console only smalls pm me if interested!!

[robust glen]

Is there any cave close to red terminal on scorched earth? Im seeing a wild onyc flying around this area

[winged hamlet]

central cave is kinda near there

[tough yarrow]

Yes, new cave under the little water zone

[robust glen]

Oh I have seen a underwater entrance

[tough yarrow]

The onyc spawn all over red ob now 😭

[robust glen]

Yep

Thanks, I thought it was a bug

[tough yarrow]

I'm sure they're not meant to spawn outside of the cave lol

That is a bug

[robust glen]

I'm calling batman now

He has to know about this issue

[daring raptor]

are the mantis in the desert cave of extinction even tameable?

[robust glen]

If they are corrupted you cant

[daring raptor]

because i lured one outside and its just standing still, and the little pop up thing when youre supposed to feed it doesnt show up

[robust glen]

You need some deathworm offerings to try to tame them

[daring raptor]

i just have woolly rhino horns

extinction doesnt have deathworms

[robust glen]

Whooly rhino is used to tame

If it doesn't give you the tame option then it's not tamable

[daring raptor]

damn it

[robust glen]

Are you using ghillie?

[daring raptor]

yeah

[robust glen]

It is higher than 150 the level?

[daring raptor]

aswell as bug repellent

[daring raptor]

its just a 135

[robust glen]

Well done, you are doing it the right way

[daring raptor]

i would send a screenshot but i cant send it here sadly

[robust glen]

You have a lot of mantis on rag

Near the vulcano

I don't need I believe in you

There are a lot of dinos on extinction that you cant tame

[daring raptor]

ah, alright then

[robust glen]

But on most maps ase cave dinos arent tamable

I think

[daring raptor]

well then, thanks for the info

[robust glen]

You are getting the artifact on that cave right?

If you need sarco skin offering there is a lake inside that cave filled with sarcos

[winged hamlet]

wait theres a new cave on se?

[robust glen]

yes

Follow the small creek outside of red terminal, you will see an entrace underwater

[winged hamlet]

neat

[robust glen]

But I haven't entered the cave

I am crafting scubba

[vagrant terrace]

Come on wildcard drop premium mods already for console

[hard nebula]

anyone know if the breeding range of dinos is the same on sp and servers in asa ik it was shorter in ase

[winged hamlet]

i think it still would be

[hard nebula]

the same as ase or same as server

[winged hamlet]

ase

[hard nebula]

k thanks

[silent matrix]

Can you guys tell me about ark survival mobile? It's will become with new revamp at June 6th 2024 or not true?

[unique topaz]

@silent matrix

ARK: Survival Evolved Mobile:

The ARK Mobile official Discord can be found here:

Ark mobile discord

ARK Mobile players will always be welcome in this discord too!

[bright moon]

please fix crashes on consoles to

[potent dragon]

new t discord frokm sevrer 5097

[dry forge]

its kind of crap tbh.

It can drop any level of loot, but that just adds to the rng. usually we find crap inside, and the drops are spread out, it's a maze with a lot of cliffs. No artifact inside. Thyla cannot fit.

[swift swan]

Just tried to revive my wyvern by taming an oasisaur, tamed the oasisaur but its not giving me my wyvern back? the wyvern is still super tiny and inacessable

[dry forge]

you dont get the dino back that you use to tame the oasis

you tame the oasis, and after its tame you can use it to revive a death essence

[dry forge]

so you see

[swift swan]

how, what do i gotta do?

[dry forge]

After the oasis is tamed, put the death essence that is NOT spent/red text dead into the inventory of the oasis. Hold whatever button bring up radial and choose to revive

but, you must wait 24hours after taming an oasis to use it to revive

If you tamed an oasis to revive a tame, it will not work as the death essence only lasts 24hours, which will expire before the oasis able to revive something

[hallow ivy]

It lasts more if you put it in it’s inventory 😉

[dry forge]

ah good to know. We had someone on our server get rather upset about that, as we/they didnt know. How long does a death essence last in an oasis inventory?

[hallow ivy]

If I’m not mistaken it’s a 3x multiplier

Definitely more than 24h in it 😄

[robust glen]

Someone told me on official that bought the dlc and is getting message to buy dlc to use the treasure map @tough yarrow on official oc server pve

[tough yarrow]

try relogging I guess.

[robust glen]

Ok I will tell him to do that

[dark kiln]

WHat's the strongest underwater creature on the island?

[dry forge]

enemy? Alpha tuso
On pvp, an tamed tuso.
On pve, A mosa

[dark kiln]

Ah

Okay thanks

[dry forge]

if you could grab enemies with tuso in pve, it would be tuso in pve as well

but cant grab and use their main attack

[shut dawn]

Guys I have a problem, I can't craft anything in my S+ Smithy, any help?

[keen fable]

hello all. i will try and explain my problem i want to play ark in windowedfullscreen mod so i don't have to keep pressing alt +tab to be able to go on my other 2 monitors. but in this mod my mouse cursor is not lining up with the game as you can see in the pic i will post my cursor is not on the UI tab but it is highlighting it. has anyone has this is there a fix or am i doing something wrong.I'm new the pc gaming

[silent matrix]

Is there any way to tame an alpha or is it entirely impossible

[keen fable]

impossible mate far as i know

[tough yarrow]

Impossible without mods.

[silent matrix]

Does forcetame command work on it (I’m mobile and ASE)

[tough yarrow]

It does on pc/console, I do not know about mobile.

[vernal lark]

How hard it it to make your own cluster?

In Ase?

[crystal plover]

Anyone knows mods that gives dinosaurs more realistic behaviour?

[rapid hearth]

anybody want to play?

[granite lichen]

Not hard at all, in the startup scripts for each of the two servers, put the cluster override directory that they both have read write access to, and also include the cluster name. These two parameters make those two servers into a cluster

[granite lichen]

I haven't seen any T-Rexes in Ark survival act exactly like the one in my local zoo..

Jokes aside, what do you consider realistic behavior?

[crystal plover]

At least drinking water and sleeping and smaller dinos won't attack bigger carnivores. Like, raptors would attack a giga for no fucking reason at all and die

[dry forge]

no they dont

If you want specific behavior, you need to give specifics. Raptors will not attack a giga, wild or tamed

[granite lichen]

I second that, smaller creatures like raptors do not attack rexes and gigas

[crystal plover]

Oh well, what about small carnivores attacking big herbivores?

[dry forge]

why is that unrealistic?

[granite lichen]

Raptors do not attack brontosauruses.. do you have any specific examples?

[dry forge]

What kilsl elephants, giraffes, hippos and wildebeast?

lions, hyena, etc, that are waaaaay smaller

[vernal lark]

I’ve never made a cluster and we were wanting to do like a 7map cluster with MODS? Not that hard?

[crystal plover]

You think compies would actually attack dinos like anky for no reason?

[dry forge]

they dont attack ankies for no reason

that is another poor example

[crystal plover]

Or carnivores eating dinosaurs 24/7 non stop

[crystal plover]

Idk, they do for me

[dry forge]

no, compies do not attack wild ankies, unless the anky hits them on accident while fighting something else

[granite lichen]

Not hard. For each server you run that you want to be part of the cluster, it needs to be able to read and write to the cluster override location, and you need to include the cluster name in the startup script. The map and mods etc are different parameters in the script.

[dry forge]

as to the other stuff, there is lore for the reasoning bhind there being only a few large carnivores, why there are more so many carnivores compared to herbivores/etc

there is a reason, and its related to the lore/story

[crystal plover]

YES!
Dinos will attack you or any dino that they attacked or they got attacked by!
Like, when stego attacks me by an accident and after defeating it's enemy they start attacking me

[dry forge]

omG NO

you need to get your facts straight

The stego will not attack you unless you hit it

[crystal plover]

It attacks you if it'll hit you, or any other herbivore bruh

[dry forge]

it can be fighting something next to you, it can hit you, and it will not go after you

[granite lichen]

Parasaurs and galimus run away

[dry forge]

so the giant stego that is swinging its tail while fighting, should not be able to hit you?

[crystal plover]

It will, i tried

[dry forge]

NOT. UNLESS. YOU. HIT. IT

hitting you, is NOT the same thing as aggroing to you

[crystal plover]

They will, bruh. Try getting hit by any herbivore

[dry forge]

so dont stand next to the fucking 10ton dinosauar swinging its tail

wtf

[granite lichen]

That's right, when you see a dino fight happening, go the other way.. just like a schoolyard fight, if you get too close you'll probably get a fist in your face

[dry forge]

no shit they hit other stuff around them when they attack

you think they shouldnt?? lmao that would make sense?

no friendly fire irl, right?

[crystal plover]

Why wouldn't i when i have an apex predator creature?

[dry forge]

there is a serious disconnect here

[crystal plover]

Qhar

[dry forge]

If there is a bronto fighting a rex, and you walk near them with your giga...yeah. You might get tail slapped ona ccident by the bronto. If the bronto wins that fight agains the rex, it will NOT go after you, even though it hit you

It WILL go after you, if you hit it.

[crystal plover]

It will

[crystal plover]

Also how a bronto will defeat a rex unless rex is 5 level and on low and bronto is 150 level

[granite lichen]

Why ask for advice, and then when you get facts about game mechanics, you don't want to listen? Can't help you if you don't want to learn

[dry forge]

you are wrong, and so i'm not going to try to reason with you anymore, because you are wrong

that is not how the aggro mechanic works, you are just...wrong.

[crystal plover]

I just got in that situation 50 minutes ago..
I was farming alpha dinos, got attacked by brontos attack by an accident, bronto killed it's enemy (i don't even remember what it was) and it started following me. I haven't attacked it

[dry forge]

you dont have a lot of knowledge for dino combat. Brontos can kill rex pretty easily because of their knock back. brontos also spawn in groups, usually. Trying to reason with you is getting no where.

[dry forge]

What dino are you using? giga? Carchar?

you probably stepped on them, doing 1 dmg

[crystal plover]

Giga, who doesn't farms alphas with giga

[dry forge]

you stepped on them then. you did damage them

you said you went close to them and they hit you on accident

[crystal plover]

Wild, if that's so ark is even stupider for me

[dry forge]

oversized dinos do small amounts of dmg with their foot steps, been that way since early access on ase

[crystal plover]

I thought they damage only small creatures like raptors or smaller, well. Ok, i lost the argument

Why can't i find a single play as a dino server? Not dead one

[sterile imp]

Any other unofficial servers experiencing lag or freezing over the last few days?

[dry forge]

The recent patches have been pretty bad for a lot of people for various reasons, ive seen complaints on official, unofficial, servers hosted by PCs and by nitrado, and by people who use gfn

[sterile imp]

Ahh okay. Yeah we have dedicated machines so was wondering if it was an us issue

Thank you!

[dry forge]

np. If i had to guess, I would say its more likely something to with the recent patch. I havent been able to log in for 24hours, and prior to that was getting Disconnects/major lag spikes for 24hours before that

I use gfn and play on official

[robust glen]

I'm having issues @slate widget one guy keeps talking about his discord on official server

Can I report him directly on xbox in the game?

[eager owl]

Okay. Managed to get all 12 therizinos, the gigaraptor, and the evo giga all inside the tek cave first attempt. Now to see if I can get the overseer done before I have to go to work

[dry forge]

....you're not allowed to talk about a discord that you're in on official serverS?

[crystal plover]

I think i just speedran a death in ark. I spawned right below a carchar and he killed me

[tough yarrow]

Depends on context, as all cases do. If they're advertising an rmt discord, then yes, that would be something to report

[tough yarrow]

^

[dry forge]

Ahh, i see. I was just talking to a tribemate about it too. I was thinking that there was a rule i didnt know about that involved off site links. Understandable if it was for something illicit
thank you for clarifying

[silent matrix]

How many dinos does an Oasisaur count for?

[astral sigil]

Console still without Premium Mods?

[eager owl]

okay I will absolutely be only using therizinos for the tek cave going forward

No pileups at the door, no one yeeting into the lava

[fair wyvern]

yes, we should get some news on it this week

[pastel smelt]

just make sure your still going down with a carcha or something microraptors will knock you right off a theri

[astral sigil]

Hopefully, would be nice for an update on it 🤔

[dry forge]

60

[halcyon tangle]

wtb solid MALE carch’s ! Pve, Pm me

[robust glen]

I was making coffee thanks for the reply @tough yarrow

I have never lost a rex in the lava in ase tek cave

You need to be patient kite the giga and also beware of the buried dinos

Then move them carefully into the entrance

Purlovias can be a pain

[eager owl]

...well on one hand, the bug didn't happen

but on the other, I got OHKO'd because my tames weren't distracting the overseer enough

[robust glen]

Similar happened to me

A gigantopitecus bugged my rex I was stuck I had no idea what was happening I left my rex and got killed with 1 hit

[eager owl]

knowing my luck the bug's going to happen to me tonight and I'll have to do alpha tek cave for a third time

[robust glen]

500 hp, full flak armor, sometimes ase had these moments

Tek cave and gen 1 is where I had bad and strange moments on ase

[dry forge]

havent ran tek cave in a bit, what bug is this that you're dealing with?

[eager owl]

basically, the Alpha/Beta Overseer will transform into Gamma versions of the other bosses, which results in the entire fight counting as Gamma.

it's happened to me twice.

[dry forge]

holy cow that is super messed up lol

what a waste of time lol

[eager owl]

it's why I make a backup whenever I do tek cave (I'm on singleplayer)

...as I really do not feel like slogging through raising a gigantoraptor, 12 therizinos, and an Evo Giga (was in a cryopod) all over again I'm def reinstating that backup. I don't care, that was absolute bullshit

[pallid birch]

I'm building floors in hard uw and getting a message that the structure cannot be placed because it is too high above ground. How can I fix it? The rest of the floors place fine, then random spots give this error message.

[patent lance]

anyone else on pc crashing as soon as trying to load the game up, ive verified the integrity of the files & it still crashes every time since the latest patch 🙃

[odd stirrup]

im not able to join a tribe im getting the invite but when i accept nothing happens does anyone know how to fix this

[patent lance]

players on my cluster are having similar issues

[heavy bough]

so is a simple pistol enough to kill a theri?

there is one around my base with a baby and if i could kill it i could get the baby

[coral token]

Is it just me or is speccing out your weight sta always a good idea if you're not gonna be fighting everything at all yimes

[sage grotto]

Why when i load a painting to a painting cavas does it turn all the paintings in the room to that also

[coral token]

Cos my character has stego levels of weight capacity

I'm carrying a stack of metals and still sprinting

[tropic sun]

ark mobile xp gain is so bad

[coral token]

Is it?

[heavy bough]

I KILLED IT HOLY FUC

Im awaiting aberration, love that map

[proper tiger]

I’m trying to download ark evolved but it doesn’t work. At first it said disk error now it says corrupted disk.

[robust glen]

I have downloaded this week, had no issues

Do you have enough space?

I own all dlcs so it was 350 gbs for me

If you only download ase it should 120/150s

[fading ice]

"corrupted disk" typically means exactly what it says, you have a broken drive. just "disk error" can mean it is out of space, though

you can restart the install, if it is steam, but should address the underlying issue

corruption of files can be caused by the drive, or by glitchy CPU/memory

[proper tiger]

I have over 200gb of space so that’s not an issue. Could it be partly due to it being an external ssd

[fading ice]

externals tend to be a mixture of garbage quality and not designed for constant use (ie, a big installation) so prone to overheating, also USB weirdness can be involved

and 200GB is nowhere near enough for ASE unless you excluded all the DLC

[proper tiger]

I do not have any of the dlc’s

My bad. It’s a micro sd card

[wicked siren]

please tell me that they are gonna fix the bug where the drops glitch into the ground

ive lost 3 red drops becayuse of it and im angry

[dark kiln]

So does the shovel increase the growth progress by 30%, then increase it by another 20% over time putting it up to 50%? Or does it go down to 20% over time? Or does it actually go down by 20% over time putting it to 10%? The ark gg wiki is confusing sometimes with the ways things are said.

Or does that part of 20% even exist at all?

[fading ice]

that is incredibly different from an external SSD and also not something you should be trying to install a videogame on. also prone to failure and corruption

[dark kiln]

What about flash drives? I'v never tried moving video games onto there but I might for the devkit or some other games

Unless they have the exact same problems as the sd cards then there's no point

[elder nebula]

Anyone know, if they’ve said the exact date they will drop abb in asa?

[fading ice]

depends on the flash drive, but they are typically meant for archival purposes, not performance. have you considered just getting a real SSD?

any sort of high-capacity bespoke external device is going to cost way more than an internal drive, or an 'internal' drive stuck to a USB cable

[dark kiln]

Yeah I'm probably gonna get another internal ssd in a few months, I just thought it'd be funny to try putting games like ark on a flash drive

[fading ice]

looking around, looks like a "high end" 1TB thumbdrive has about 1/5th the speed of an old SATA SSD while costing twice as much

a typical cheap one will either be worse than a hard drive, or you will discover it is actually a 32GB piece of crap that is reporting fake capacity

[brave olive]

ANYONE having a problem receiving the 10 levels of ISLAND grades

[grim silo]

There are multiple issues with leveling currently. I'm sitting at 140 and I have everything unlocked. I should be able to level to 155 however, for some reason I can no longer get exp.

[low plinth]

soon

[dry forge]

They have no said, its suspected to be july or august

[low plinth]

see soon

[dry forge]

tagged wrong person, my bad

[robust glen]

Are you on official @wicked siren I haven't seen any drops like the ones you describe on asa official pve

You can't install ark on a sd card I think @proper tiger

The date we have on road map for the release of abb is July @elder nebula

[scenic cipher]

Damn, Center in June and Abb in July, that'll be some juicy back to back content

[robust glen]

Yes indeed

I miss maewings though

[wet dust]

When does ark poc wipe?

[robust glen]

Does anyone know what is the highest wyvern egg level on official? I got 1 155 a few minutes ago

[eager owl]

Aight 2nd time was the charm with the overseer

[robust glen]

Congrats

[eager owl]

had an oh-shit moment when the cave's floor de-rendered for a bit, but thankfully was able to pod the one therizino that got stuck in the floor

Bug didn't happen this time either, but it still played the wrong ascension cutscene ajfdks; (unless ASA only has the gamma one?)

[winged hamlet]

i don't think we're getting ab in july

[wheat flax]

[eager owl]

...uhhh nope I'm going to have to reinstate the backup again

something Broke

I think I know why it broke, and I'm pretty sure it was my fault tbh 😓

[polar owl]

Best way to do the artifact of strong cave?

[eager owl]

Depends very much on what type of server you're on

or what gamemode

[polar owl]

Official pve

[abstract holly]

Do you still lose all the Element after beating Manticore?

[mortal raft]

the shovel increases the growth progress by 30%. The moment the plant is finished, you get +20% more fruits/berries from the crop plot and the growth buff disappears.

[proper tiger]

Abb?

[pseudo talon]

Hello I try to get a checkmark on the reaper dossier but when I claim it, it doesn't appear please help?

any advice on how to get checkmarks?

[fair wyvern]

may 24th

[wet dust]

😔

[fair wyvern]

only if you keep it on your character, put it in a dino and it’ll stay

[dry forge]

I mean, this is assuming nothing is delayed...which i think abe being released before summer ends is a reasonable expectation, maybe close to sept

[dry forge]

Dont forget to put your skins on your dino too

[potent merlin]

how do i get rid of a spino at the ohter side of the river where i wanne be

[fading ice]

wait for it to jog away, assuming you cant handle it somehow

or go elsewhere

[potent merlin]

i do have bow and arrows but i don't think that will help much

i try waiting till somthing alse kills it

[eager owl]

dangit the overseer bugged this time

[bold schooner]

Im sell ing a lvl 426 lightning wivern for lots of gp

[honest ibex]

no one cares

[dim sun]

Did Wildcard break singleplayer configs on Survival Evolved?

[kind perch]

my game keeps crashing when i make a non dedicated server but the crash in werid it crashes at the very end of the loading screan anyone know how to fix it and save my world ?

[dim sun]

I'm having a hell of a time getting some common ones I used to use working and I keep finding the gus.ini file changing after I launch and eventually close the game client, removing some of the configs I put in. Yet some of the ones I put in (that were removed) still work when I relaunch the game.

[eager owl]

ASA acts like this too. Make sure you set any ini you edit to "read-only" when you're done with it

[hazy burrow]

i might be in the wrong channel but does anyone know a good area where silica pearls are in scorched earth?

[dim sun]

Amazing. The older game is in even worse condition than when I left it. 🤣

[sick frigate]

I want to have multiple saves on the island in asa, is that possible?

[ember oriole]

Abb will probably be August

[eager owl]

OKAY unless the game breaks extremely badly again (which it won't this time I hope given that I uploaded my Scorched character beforehand this time) I now have two characters with tek bino authorization

[elder arch]

Is tek rifle better than a pump shotgun with 200% dmg?

[zealous pawn]

Are megaladons good for the water caves?

I was doing the tame megaladon pursuit and after the taming bonus and added exp from the pursuit reward lvled it up I got a lvl 53 megaladon

Since the lvl cap in my game is 40,breeding a group of Megaladons should be good right

[winged hamlet]

megs are good in a group of 5-8. they buff each other andinflict bleed

though in water caves you can still get swarmed

[fair wyvern]

for killing dinos? no

[zealous pawn]

So megs work

If so I'll just breed the lvls and stats onto a dozen or more

[winged hamlet]

in a group yes

cant say much about a server with levels that low tho

but the bleed and buffs should help

[zealous pawn]

Just to be sure where do the buffs come from

[winged hamlet]

its a pack buff

the more nearby the better the buff

wild megs get it too

[zealous pawn]

So too many megs also isn't good

I should probably have something different as well

[winged hamlet]

you can bring a lot, but a ton of them will probably be hard the squeeze through

[zealous pawn]

I got some basilos I can breed

I got a lvl 39 so I can make a decent pack

[winged hamlet]

basil is good because they can have a lot of hp and are immune to jellyfish and eels

[zealous pawn]

Yeah I'll probably use both basilos and megs

[winged hamlet]

but im used to dealing with lvl 200+ so i cant really speak for that low for sure

[zealous pawn]

Ok

[winged hamlet]

having settings that low makes it easier to deal with overworld and caves but you might struggle against bosses

[kindred current]

Hi there, hopefully somebody here can help me. Are the boss dossiers for the megapithecus and dragon glitched by any chance? Because I have every explorer note in the game at this point but those 2 and they won't unlock even after doing them both on all difficulties

[winged hamlet]

you have to kill them and keep your dinos from harvesting the corpse immediately

for whatever reason the notes dont register the kill unless the corpse is there for a few seconds, unlike the implant and the tekgram unlocks for whatever reason

it's been an issue since ase

[kindred current]

Ow damn that could be it, thank you!

[abstract holly]

I’m using a Dino finder mod and 90% of Deathworms disappear as I get close, and every alpha deathworm has disappeared so far. Just Ark being Ark? Any fix?

[novel cloud]

Guys, does exiting and rejoining a singleplayer world make dino corpses despawn?

I've been killing babies for tons of xp and they fall through the map after they die

They stack up under the map and cause FPS issues

[winged hamlet]

what are you killing them with

[novel cloud]

An argy

[winged hamlet]

then it should be eating the corpses when they die

[novel cloud]

I know barys and beelzebufo can auto collect, but I'm trying to level up my other dinos

[novel cloud]

That's the thing, the corpse falls through the solid ground whenever the baby gets killed

[winged hamlet]

try putting the babies on a foundation?

[novel cloud]

I have a killing room, tried it on both foundations, ceilings, and solid ground, nothing works.

I'll just have to relog maybe?

[winged hamlet]

weird

[pallid garden]

can the argentavis carry 2 dinos in its claws? or only 1 in the claws and beak

[winged hamlet]

one in the claws and a small creature in the beak

[novel cloud]

Only 1 in claws

[winged hamlet]

small like an otter

kark is the only thing that can pick up 2 things like that

[pallid garden]

aight thanks

[low totem]

I usually bag this game but i want to extend thanks to the team who replaced my wyvern that died due to a server crash and rollback, it was timely and friendly.
Good to see now we can ticket for these things where as they could easily say nah Early Access too bad soo sad.

[robust glen]

If you plan to do a hit and run megs arent bad but megalodons aren't good. Almost any dino can defeat them in the water and also shock and dismount you @zealous pawn If you are on ase you can tame easily some basilos, on gen 1 and also on crystal isles

Don't go to the caves of the lost if you dont want to lose your megs.

[winged hamlet]

like 8 megs are super strong

[robust glen]

If he has buffed stats

[winged hamlet]

i can beat alpha moeder eith like 12 tamed megs

[robust glen]

The advice for 1 of the caves is 4 top basilos

Water dinos are buffed on gen 1

I played vs moeder but on official

I never got those kind of incredible wins except using strong dinos

[winged hamlet]

megs after tlc are op

they inflict bleed damage which is the same as allo bleed and buff each other

[neon belfry]

Who wants to join me Netherlands?

[robust glen]

I respect your opinion but it's not mine. Megs are bad, you can even say you won against any boss alpha with dodos, it will never be good for me,,,megs

[dry forge]

just because something is not meta, does not mean they are bad.
You can use a meg just like you can use a thyla, their bleed is very strong. A good meg can clear the caves with enough hp and you dont get surrounded, it's just slow. A group of megs with their pack bonus and bleed can easily clear a cave. It seems you havent actually tried them.

[spark zenith]

Then comes a update for xbox for the crashs on servers ?

[bright moon]

^ when we need it

its been its on the third day now that most of us cant play

[solemn temple]

anyone down to play with me?

[robust glen]

What is happening @bright moon ?

Are you on official, I haven't had any major issues on xbox

[bright moon]

unofficial it freezes an crashes whont let us do anything

[robust glen]

But you know it's their rules, also mods, settings etç

Do you think it's wilcards fault?

[bright moon]

or it goes to 0 pink ones we load

thats wat we think

[robust glen]

Or due to bugs in the game?

[bright moon]

ping*

[robust glen]

Ping is terrible not gonna lie

I havent got much info about this, but I think if it's the company that delivers and run the servers fault, wildcard should make them fix this. But if its wc, then they should focus on fixing this issue instead of worrying about new dinos etç

Ping was great before scorched earth

It was around 60 on eu servers then went to 200/300 and this isn't good at all

I have been thinking about what is the cause of this terrible ping but until today I don't have any clue about it

[wicked fiber]

Does anyone play on aqua?

[robust glen]

What is aqua?

[wicked fiber]

A server

But its suddenly gone

Normaly its 1 month till wipe

[robust glen]

Do this...

Change filter to show all

I hope it will pop up

[wicked fiber]

Cant see it

[robust glen]

Sometimes we can't see the servers, it's related to the filters

#server-reports

[wicked fiber]

I will look there

[robust glen]

I'm not sure if this section is only for official servers, try to talk to a mod

[wind vessel]

When you are playing with a friend there is like a distance thing and when you are to far form the host you teleport the them is there a way to turn that off in ase.Sorry if the description is bad.

[robust glen]

I don't think so

There are some videos on youtube telling you that is possible but I think it's not true

Tether distance, very annoying

Have you tried to run your dedicated server or just invited your friend to your s p world?

[sharp yacht]

Would you please help me to completely restore my settings because since I accidentally turned on full screen I can hardly do anything anymore, can you fix this?

[robust glen]

Are you on ase, asa, pc?

[sharp yacht]

ASA pc

[robust glen]

Can you close the game?

Or are you in a boss fight?

[sharp yacht]

I can close it

[robust glen]

You should be able to do it press ESC

[sharp yacht]

Yes

[robust glen]

Then go to settings and try to reset

I am loading my pc wait 30 seconds

I know on xbox let me see

I think its on video or advanced

[sharp yacht]

If I want to click on something I have to stand 5cm below it and that is not possible because my mouse is then out of view

[robust glen]

Ok on pc...

Settings, then Resolution on video options

[sharp yacht]

How to sent a photo

[robust glen]

send to me dm

You can't post it here

I am trying to understand your issue but I can't 🤔

I'm glad the problem is solved 🙂

[sharp yacht]

No its not solved I can’t press the save button

[robust glen]

After you choose the resolution press SAVE

I will show you ok

[sharp yacht]

Look ad the dm

[robust glen]

You have to change your tv resolution its not issue with the game

I advise you to use a monitor and if you still have problems you must change the resolution on the device that displays the image

[barren swallow]

lol

[zealous pawn]

What's the max megaladon buff?

Like how big should the pack be for max buff

And does the pack buff even improve?

[robust glen]

Kristine was talking this morning about it, check her comments @zealous pawn

If it's a buff of course it will improve

According to what she said, use 8 megalodons to get the bleeding damage

[zealous pawn]

Yeah I was the one chatting this morning

Im just confirming the number

[robust glen]

I'm just saying I had terrible issues every time I wasn't using a basilo

[zealous pawn]

And I couldn't find anything explaining what exact was being buffed

[robust glen]

But it's your option, not mine

She said they were buffed after tlc

[zealous pawn]

What's tlc?

[robust glen]

If you get shocked you can even lose a giga if you close to land

Because all land dinos will just stand still

[tough yarrow]

It's 8 yes

[robust glen]

I advise you to carry an ascendant pike

Flak armor, it was with a pike that I saved my giga, I killed the eels

[zealous pawn]

Isn't giga a land dino?

[robust glen]

You will see what I mean

Yep, I was crossing, after leaving the swamp

You know bridges aren't in the game right?

Map

Unless you build them

So if there is no bridge you must cross the waters sometimes

[zealous pawn]

Yeah I build one near the south side of the map

[zealous pawn]

Yeah very dangerous

[robust glen]

I was going to the terminal and thought this is shallow waters, must be safe

Yes but I just didn't wanted you to complain later to me after you lose all your stuff inside the water because you got dismounted and shocked 😄

[zealous pawn]

What are eels doing in the swamp?

[robust glen]

megas and dolphins are very good until a bad water dinos catch you

Out of the swamp area

Womg

I will tell you the coords, but its asa

[zealous pawn]

Don't worry about eels, in my single player world with a lvl cap of 40 I have a lvl 39 basilo tamed to use in the water caves

[robust glen]

I think it's around 10 10 that river that runs into the sea close to the orb/terminal

[zealous pawn]

The red ob?

[robust glen]

Yep

I am on the red forest I don't remember but I think it is the red terminal

[zealous pawn]

I really should unlock all the obs when I get the chance

[robust glen]

There is a place when the river meets the sea it was there

[zealous pawn]

Ok

[robust glen]

Have fun

[zealous pawn]

Thanks

Just one question if you still there

[robust glen]

Hi @tough yarrow I have 1 doubt, on official asa I can't use mods right? Other than the one that is on the server right now?

Ask anything you want

[zealous pawn]

Assuming the whole group including the ichy I'll be riding is 20 dinos, how many should be Megas and how many should be basilos

[robust glen]

I don't know bro, I have never used itchys or megas to fight anything big

[zealous pawn]

Im planning on brute forcing the caves

[robust glen]

As I said before, basilos, mosasaurs or squids

😄

You can't, unless you have changed the settings

[zealous pawn]

?

[robust glen]

I mean it's single player right 😄

[zealous pawn]

Yes?

Does that change anything?

[robust glen]

The advice from a pro player is 4 basilos for the cave the worst of them and 1 basilo for the less hard cave, I'm talking about caves of the lost

Lost hope and lost faith. Go ahead and please share what happened afterwards

Yes

[zealous pawn]

Is this for going in and out or for brute forcing it?

[robust glen]

Official it is hard, almost anything you can change will benefit you and your dinos.

On single player

You can buff everything

[zealous pawn]

Im confused about what's different?

[robust glen]

Health regen, health gains with levels

Everything if you change the settings

But if you are using vanilla it's something else

[zealous pawn]

Im on mobile so I just have default settings

I don't know how I will see my answer there, nevermind I will ask the peeps on my official about it

[zealous pawn]

My plan is simply to lvl up my basilo to like lvl 50(same to the mega) then breed a pack of each to brute force the cave

[robust glen]

Look, this is what happened to me

I entered on a basilo with 2 squids, 2 mosasaurs, 4 megalos

[zealous pawn]

Ok

[robust glen]

All died

[zealous pawn]

Damn

[robust glen]

After 50 megalodons attacked me

2 alpha higher than normal levels.

1 shark the other was another sea creature than I don't even remember

[zealous pawn]

Thats higher than the tame cap for singleplayer

[robust glen]

I think I have managed to save 1 of them, I recorded this

Then I used my method of calling them outside the cave

[zealous pawn]

Im gonna have to lvl up my dinos more than I thought

What difficultly was this on?

[robust glen]

Yes they will follow you to beach where my giga would kill them, then I proceed the heal my 60k hp basilo with an owl, all on official server no buffs

[zealous pawn]

What was the lvl cap?

[robust glen]

All dinos were op bred on official

Level cap?

[zealous pawn]

Like the max dino spawn lvl

[robust glen]

What level cap

It was official server settings

I have no idea

I will send you dm, can I ?

[zealous pawn]

Like dinos in my world can't spawn over lvl 40 but caves and lvling them manually is an exception

[robust glen]

The you will see what a top player says about the caves 😄

[zealous pawn]

Ok

Speed isn't an option for me cause I lag in the caves

[robust glen]

As I said, you changed the settings

[zealous pawn]

So I've been preparing the brute force option for awhile now

[zealous pawn]

Im confused

[robust glen]

But I'm not worried about it, since official ase died

If you change any settings that will benefit you, you will have greater chances

But that's it, you can do it, its your world

[zealous pawn]

Just check your dms

[robust glen]

I have found

I will send you now

Case closed. I need to find another top baryonix to tame bro, see you soon and have fun

[zealous pawn]

OK bye

[dry forge]

1 shark gets the bleed, you do not need a pack for that. The largest a shark pack can get is +8

[zealous pawn]

But more sharks=more bleed right

[dry forge]

yes

[tough yarrow]

Each shark will do bleed, but you don't need 8 sharks though unless you just want that many

[dry forge]

^

the larger the pack, the more dmg resistance/etc they get, like wolves or hyena, so having a pack will overall decrease your dmg taken. But being in a pack does not give them access to an extra attack like allos get

[robust glen]

Official servers are down

[bold schooner]

Cry about it

[dry forge]

im logged in right now...

[robust glen]

Kristine told him it's 8 megalos pack to get the buff

This morning

[dry forge]

that is not what they said. I was part of that convo.

ANy megalo, has an automatic bleed on their main attack, like a thyla. they do NOT need to be in a pack for that.

The pack bonus they get, like wolves or hyena, is based on the number of them in a close group, maxing at 8.

The pack bonus goes from 2-8. You do not need 8 to get a buff. You can have 2 and get a buff, though the buff gets stronger with more megs, up to 8.

[icy kestrel]

umm why isnt Forglar updated on official 😦 cant access Desert Biome plz ARK

[robust glen]

What is Forglar? Mod map?

[tawny grotto]

Yes

[robust glen]

I am curious, i will look into this, thanks

Do you know if we can use mods on official @tawny grotto ?

Other than the jane mod

[tawny grotto]

Uhm I think some skin mods are allowed. Otherwise only the mods the server has installed

[shut charm]

I’m thinking of switching over to Official PvE from Unofficial. Have they stabilized the Official servers yet? I know that they were having trouble last year with them…

[robust glen]

I'm on official pve, not big issues.

The dc will happen like 1 time every hour and some lagg, but I playing on official since 2018 no big complains about it

[shut charm]

How have you been able to find a good server where people aren’t toxic and block off caves/obelisks etc?

[robust glen]

Never lost main characters, tribes, structures, so all good

Lot's of pillars on officia

[icy kestrel]

makes it fun

[shut charm]

How is that fun

[robust glen]

But for example in swamp they killed most beaver dam spawns

[icy kestrel]

spawns and resources are safe

[robust glen]

There is always a way to counter

I had to wait for them to quit and pillar it the right way

If you build a base on the water most beavers wont spawn

But now that they quit beavers have returned

[shut charm]

Are there places to build still and stuff? It is it overpopulated

*or is it

[robust glen]

On the beach south of my island server there isn't

[icy kestrel]

yeah depends where you go, some people are crazy some just protect things

[robust glen]

It's not easy to find a spot but there is

Come to 5195 eu pve

[shut charm]

Shoot I’m NAE

[robust glen]

oh

[shut charm]

That ping would be high for me

Otherwise I might

[robust glen]

yepI have 500 on oc

ping

[icy kestrel]

i didnt know OMEGA Island Official was a thing... sheesh this is gonna be crazy

[robust glen]

I didn't know you only get 5 milk after tranquing a wyvern 😄

I wanted to help everyone but I can't

I can barely help my wyvers 😄

[shut charm]

I never played Official PvE before. Does WC every wipe servers, delete servers, or rollback at all?

[robust glen]

no

[shut charm]

*ever

[robust glen]

Never had any server wipe since 2019, except when they closed official ase servers

Nope, on PVE

[shut charm]

Interesting. Perhaps I will try Official PvE then. Cuz the Unofficial server I’m on right now continues to go offline at random times.

[icy kestrel]

they wiped official PVE once... at the end of ASE 😦

[robust glen]

Yep as I said

[shut charm]

Well that’s cuz they were transitioning to ASA I’m sure

[robust glen]

End of servers

But I was told we could get save, ask the mods

[icy kestrel]

its cool how they have official Mod maps and stuff 😄

[robust glen]

So it wasn't exactly a wipe

[shut charm]

Wait

Official PvE has mods??

[robust glen]

yep

[shut charm]

I thought that was only Unoffocial

How do I know which ones

[icy kestrel]

on the map drop down list

[robust glen]

I'm trying to understand which mods I can use on official

Thanks @icy kestrel

Finally some concrete answer

[icy kestrel]

in search i typed omega, and found official omega island O.o

[shut charm]

Wuzzat??

[icy kestrel]

so im gonna die a billion times lmao

[shut charm]

Tf

[icy kestrel]

waiting for Forglar Official to get its update to play in desert biome release

[tawny grotto]

You play on premium map?

[icy kestrel]

yeah, official is premium only i believe

[tawny grotto]

Ah ok

[icy kestrel]

its better than spending 10$ on a skin imo lol

[tawny grotto]

absolutely

[icy kestrel]

i bought every official* mod map except reverace or w.e, they only dropped a EU official..

[tawny grotto]

Wow ok, I'm still waiting for the premium release for console lol and then is Svartalfheim and Forglar a thing

[icy kestrel]

yes beautiful maps both of them

[tawny grotto]

Yes they are. I play on both in free version atm

[icy kestrel]

forglar is more recent, svart is more optimized with much more content

[tawny grotto]

Both creators have good ideas what they want to bring on their maps

And on Svartalfheim I like that's a no flyer map

[icy kestrel]

had to figure out how to move around lol

[tawny grotto]

I brought my unicorn from island to Svartalfheim and there wasn't a problem anymore for me lol

[astral wolf]

On Svart the maewing level requirement is insane you gotta be level 96 just to craft it even though its one of the easiest tames to tame

[icy kestrel]

it shouldnt be easy mode from the get go thou lol

[astral wolf]

I know but just saying an easy Dino to tame should be an easy saddle to obtain

[icy kestrel]

also an end game dino for babies

[astral wolf]

It’s pretty early if you can knock it out with a bow and probably 20 tranq arrows

On genesis 2 in ase it was a level 19 saddle

[icy kestrel]

hopefully when the non S maewing comes out itll be backto normal

[astral wolf]

Yea

I don’t mind that they increased the poly needed just shouldn’t be such a high level saddle

Since it’s 170 more poly than on ase

[fair wyvern]

having a maewing to travel around on early game would kind of defeat a major feature of the map which is more difficulty traveling due to no flyers

[shut charm]

How long does it take to tame dinos once they’re down? Cuz I ain’t about to sit around for hours waiting for a Parasaur to pop up…

On Official I mean

[robust glen]

Hours?

Lol

You can't have the buffs that you have on unofficial

At weekends its usually 2x, starts on friday until monday

[shut charm]

Yeah but approximately, normally, is it a long time

[robust glen]

At with events we might get 3x or more in dono event

[icy kestrel]

dododex.com

[robust glen]

Nope

I use kibble

Tame most of them in minutes

[shut charm]

Lol yea but starting out kibble isn’t an option

[robust glen]

You must potentiate your gameplay or indeed it will take you ages

I know

But if you place traps all you need is a berry gatherer and thats it

I started with theris, then yutis, gigas

But solo isn't easy

A lot of people thrive on donations, you know asking

You can do a lot to have an easy time on official

I don't blame anyone but because I'm not good at begging I always end up not trading and having to tame all my dinos

It's an hard choice but for me it's easy, there is nothing to me as good as pve official

For example if my pc was good to have a stable gaming with decent fps I would only play on single player with no changes except 3x taming and 3x resource gathering for dinos

Keeping a copy of your save file allow you to recover your gameplay if you make a single player mistake

About kibble farm, just start with dodos, baryonix for example due to the fact that thylas can't enter most caves, are now one of the best cave dwellers in the game

And the kibble for them isn't hard in any way

It's regular kibble

ankylo eggs are used on this kibble

[astral wolf]

Oh I see

[fickle idol]

Is there a way to make Dino's appear all over the map in single player and not just in my vicinity? Like it's really annoying. I need to stay around parts to get specific creatures to spawn

[robust glen]

I have never heard of such thing

But you can do this if you are on sinle player...

Use code to do a dino wipe, then use the code to spawn your favorite dinos @fickle idol

You can even chose the level, change colors etç

[fickle idol]

That's kinda cheating no?
If I want to play legitimately that is.

[robust glen]

Lol

You want what you asked in a game with dinos, what can I tell you

It's single player, there is no cheating

[indigo robin]

well you could also just rent a server yk

[robust glen]

If you lay foundations or structures in a an area dinos won't spawn so problem solved @fickle idol

Even if you do like a big wall surrounding you base you should also place foundantions area 5 squares to prevent wild dinos spawn

[fickle idol]

I want them to spawn tho. I want gigas and carchars to spawn so I can check fast and not wait for them to appear xD

[fickle idol]

€20 for lowest tier for a single person lol

[robust glen]

Then use dino finder

Sam is just trying to help

[lyric scaffold]

why can't I launch my solo game on scroch, it crashes my game, has this happened to you? I'm on xbox series s

[robust glen]

In some servers you will have everything done for you, some are even 0$ like on unofficial the only issue is the wipes

I'm on xbox too

Are you on official @lyric scaffold ?

[lyric scaffold]

No solo

[robust glen]

I was trying to warn the player 2 hours ago. I had some issues but after like 10 minutes all worked.

Some mods cause conflict Sico

[lyric scaffold]

ok but it's been 2 days

[robust glen]

I think one of them is that mod that allows you to recover your inventory when you die, its called death...something

[lyric scaffold]

Ok i check

[robust glen]

I was told you can use more than 6

But I don't and I don't have any dcs on single player

[lyric scaffold]

I don't know I deactivated the mod however it still doesn't work and the other maps work

[robust glen]

I will test my single player on xbox

Try to restart your console

Everything works for me

I'm on scorched earth single player

Have you uploaded your character?

[mild nexus]

Server down

[lyric scaffold]

No

[lyric scaffold]

2 Day I already tried

[robust glen]

I'm afraid I can't help you

I have never had similar issue back in the day on ase and now on asa

I was on ps4 and since 17 months ago xbox s and nothing similar happened to me

It might be on your settings

Maybe reset all will work

I remember that there was a few things that might crash and ruin your world on ase but about asa I don't know much

You can use gcm build a transmitter and always upload your character when you stop playing

I think if you don't do this next time you load the game on another map you will lose everything on the other map, at least this happened to me on ase

[fickle idol]

I am

[fickle idol]

yeah I know. I am sorry if it came over rude

[robust glen]

Np

[pseudo talon]

Hi I tamed a claim the reaper but the check mark is not on the dossier is this a bug?

[robust glen]

Hi @pseudo talon

You claimed how?

You had the creature in your chest?

[pseudo talon]

Impregnated

[robust glen]

Well done

[pseudo talon]

Yes but no check mark

On dossier

[robust glen]

Similar things happened to me with other dinos

I hope someone can help you, I wish I knew the problem

[pseudo talon]

Is there a way to properly get a check mark on the untamed creatures?

[robust glen]

Hi @tough yarrow can you help Conrad please?

He tamed a reaper, claimed after the impregnation and didn't got the dossier achievement

[pseudo talon]

Check mark
