[timber heron]

It says it’s running.

[night trout]

Hm

Nitrado sometimes does shit like that if you're using it

[timber heron]

We got an error message about mods?

[night trout]

I mean, remove each mod one at a time and figure out which one's causing it

[timber heron]

Ok thank you.

[night trout]

Anyway folks did anyone else hear something along these lines? I'm not willing to pay for Lost Colony if the Fantastic Tames DLCs are attached. They're too expensive for a single creature.

[hasty field]

Dude I transfer in with a stego to raid a tp and it disappears out of my inventory

I never dropped it or anything I just went to make a foundation and it’s gone

[night trout]

You got Ark'd

[hasty field]

Like bro it was a top stat too

And it’s just not there anymore this game sucks fucking ass

[night trout]

That's why I play PVE these days. I stopped playing PvP after my tames kept teleporting under the map mid wipe.

[hasty field]

Mine was in a cryo bro and it’s just gone

I transfer back to my server and it’s still not there

[analog stump]

Does anyone know a possible mod that fixes no pillar support on the bobs tails train tracks?

[night trout]

As far as I know, there are no mods for the train system. If you want a (somewhat cheesy) workaround and have access to your configs (eg. if it's a dedicated server, since I know Xbox can't access ini on their own), you can use the following ini code to make stone pillars cost 1 stone: ConfigOverrideItemCraftingCosts=(ItemClassString="PrimalItemStructure_StonePillar_C",BaseCraftingResourceRequirements=((ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_Stone_C",BaseResourceRequirement=1.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=False)))

Put it into Game.ini

[idle sundial]

FINALLY SERVER RATES

[loud breach]

what 🤣

[night trout]

Right now it's a bundle, which is inherently not worth getting

[night trout]

Okay cool

[loud breach]

the Drakeling alone makes it worth it

[night trout]

I play PvE and find Drakelings to be overpowered. I remove them on my servers, same with every other Fantastic Tames dino

[loud breach]

wait so on the 22nd, Lost Colony price will drop by 10$??

[fair wyvern]

no.

[night trout]

No

[loud breach]

oh, man 💔

[edgy cape]

Is the patch just server side?

[night trout]

It will no longer be sold alongside Elderclaw and Drakeling

[fair wyvern]

you’re “saving $10” since drakeling and elderclaw are included atm

[night trout]

Meaning people who just want Lost Colony (me) can get it for less, but without those two

[fair wyvern]

yeah

[loud breach]

actual patch?

or is it just server rates?

[edgy cape]

both

[night trout]

I think they changed the server rates and also released a patch a bit beforehand

[edgy cape]

they technically don't have to restart servers to up the rates just an fyi

[loud breach]

oh, that's neat

[night trout]

They use dynamic config which means it can be updated live

[loud breach]

I have that option on the app I'm using to just by dedicated server but I don't know how to set it up 🙁

[night trout]

Doesn't work with all settings, just rates. In case anyone here wants to try it on their own servers lol.

[night trout]

I don't use it either, so I can't help you there lol

[loud breach]

all good, it doesn't take that much time to restart my server anyways

on the server rates, it says Harvesting is 2x, does that cover both Player and Creature?

[ruby flame]

When is Xbox getting a fix so we can connect to mods... havent been able to play online for 15 hours now. The patch broke it yesterday

[strange cypress]

Im still having problems getting the mod system to work, even after clearing out the cache, it worked last time and then now it’s back to broken. I’ll clear cache again to see if it fixes it again.

[ruby flame]

Same Death

[eternal cedar]

Anyone else not able to to transfer to other maps or do bosses fights do to game crashes the moment you touch the pillars? This is on solo play.

[pearl quartz]

yet another useless patch. How about fixing city mission glitches so more than 1 in 5 can be completed. How about a fix for breeding interval working with cryo hospital on official. Hmmm what about certain tools like chainsaw not having to be dropped or transferred to a pet so they actually work. What about a fix for our tames vanishing under the mesh if we throw em out close to another dino?

[timber heron]

Having the same issue.

[strange cypress]

Clearing the Cache worked

[strange cypress]

Clearing the Cache worked

[timber heron]

I’ll give it a try.

[loud breach]

try disabling Dino Download in your Single Player settings

[eternal cedar]

@loud breach will try it

[fallow pecan]

now am confused, how do servers go from 78.9 to 78.16? isnt 78.16 a lower number then 78.9 xD

[upbeat verge]

I went to ARK, Open ARK folder on your Xbox (Manage game and add-ons), then go down to Save data and delete the "Reserved Space" file. It allows me to play for while but the drawback is you have re-download mods. Its a temporary fix.

[loud breach]

no, it's higher....

maybe ya are thinking it's 78.16 and 79.9?

[fair wyvern]

for the number system they’re using if it’s .9 just think of it as .09

[edgy cape]

it might be part of a bigger patch or a fix for a earlier patch or whatever. It can be labeled whatever they want to label it,

[strange cypress]

That’s what I was talking about, but you gotta do it every time you want to play unfortunately.

[upbeat verge]

Gotcha

It has to be annoying xbox issue.

[loud breach]

Xbox players have it rough 😖

[upbeat verge]

So true😭

[loud breach]

does anyone know of a mod that auto incubates, hatches and capture creatures in vanilla crypods?

I want to start breeding baby Carchas for xp

the reason I want vanilla is so that they don't grow up inside the crypods

I'm getting really bored mowing down 20k HP adult Carchas

[edgy cape]

I wish Wildcard would turn the cryo system into like the pokeball mod from ASE with the gun and storage

[loud breach]

They'll probably get sued by Nintendo if they do that?

[edgy cape]

it's NO different on how it's thrown out now , just a different shape

but that mod would autopickup and cryo babies and store them

[warped kayak]

They probably really wouldn't it's just a different shape

[regal pulsar]

lots more people with the mod connection issue today

[small phoenix]

Does everyone get a gigadesmo egg from the boss fight?

[grave pine]

I have it here still.

[grand plover]

just how strong are Reapers? Heard they are equal to rex and i been respawning them over and over in LC trying to get a high lvl one. They mostly spawn between lvl 10-30 and idk if thats worth taming or not. Highest i seen was 90 which i attempted but it literally wouldnt grab me even below 2k hp

great now a lvl 5 reaper i mean wtf so lame

[random belfry]

the game is broken

[grave pine]

Most likely a server issue. Just surprised for the cluster I play which is self served

Something with Nitrado I’m sure as I can’t even go to see mods

[loud breach]

80% Damage reduction outside of Charge Light I believe

[grave pine]

I mean curseforge

[grand plover]

thats even when tamed?

[random belfry]

I play SP. Crash when I try to open the inventory

[loud breach]

yes and with a Gloon, that 80% reduction is basically permanent

[grand plover]

what do you mean by this bc i been using the Gloon for the charge light so i can do the dmg but that takes away the dmg reduction

[loud breach]

@grand plover how are ya summoning them?

[grand plover]

im just going in and out of the radiated cave in LC. idk if they spawn anywhere else

[loud breach]

The Gloon has a buff called Charge Light protection which gets applied to any creature ya are riding including a reaper

[timber heron]

It worked. Thank you.

[loud breach]

so it basically makes the Reaper ya are riding immune to Charge Light

[grand plover]

oh ok cool i didnt know that actually. does anything even use charge light in pve though?

[loud breach]

only in that cave, yes

[loud breach]

Gloon is a Light pet 🤣

[grand plover]

that doesnt really answer my question

[loud breach]

Plant Species Z and Charge Lantern

[sharp oxide]

why does the game have daily patches???

[loud breach]

both can be obtained in Lost Colony

[grand plover]

im just trying to gauge how strong a Reaper is bc i been respawning over and over for a high lvl. it keeps giving me low levels so idk if thats worth the effort to tame

[loud breach]

it's very strong but ya need to be high level and find a high level queen

[grand plover]

i dont think were on the same page. is that even an issue in pve if im riding my reaper

idk if i ever encounter charge lights so far in pve so i wouldnt really need the charge light protection id think

[loud breach]

PVE as in Single Player?

[grand plover]

im with some friends lol

[loud breach]

then yes it does matter because if your one of your friends brings a Gloon with them and forgets to turn off Charge Light, they'll disable your Reaper armor

[grave pine]

“Temporary solution appears to be to go to manage games and installations for Ark and clear reserved data. Will uninstall all mods and enable access again.” Per CurseForge Discord

[grand plover]

at least im getting pretty good xp doing this reaper farm. about to get my third level up already

[loud breach]

is adding a mod an option?

there's a very good Reaper mod I can recommend ya, vanilla friendly too

if ya end up not liking it, ya can simply convert the modded Reapers into vanilla then safely uninstall the mod

[grand plover]

im not the host so prolly not mods

[loud breach]

got it

it's still worth getting a high level one, ya just need to find a high level queen and level up your player as much as ya can

it used to be possible to get a max host multiplier by impregnating a Level 240+ Thrall

but it got patched yesterday

[glacial wing]

any good base spots for 5 man on island

[grand plover]

yeah sadly they patched that yesterday which is also when i started farming reaper lol

i should of done it sooner i didnt think it would get patched yet

i want a high lvl reaper but the highest i have seen is one lvl 90. they keep spawning lvl 5-30

[loud breach]

also, I don't think ya understand how much 80% Damage reduction is

[fallow pecan]

which server version was this??? #patch-notes message

[loud breach]

try killing a queen without using a charge light, see how annoying it is without a bleeder or mutated creature

[grand plover]

i never said 80% dmg reduction is bad so not sure where that is coming from

i was asking if its worth taming a low lvl or not bc thats what it keeps spawning for me

[loud breach]

no, low level aren't worth it

you're on Lost Colony, correct?

[grand plover]

yes

[loud breach]

then only the Queen should spawn in that cave

[fallow pecan]

is todays minor patch higher then these patch notes? #patch-notes message

[grand plover]

yes i know just the queen rn

isnt is a combination of queen lvl, my lvl, and the multiplier

[loud breach]

then keep killing until ya get a high level and if ya have access to the Tek Binoculars, check for stats

[loud breach]

the multiplier is decided by your level and the Queen

[grand plover]

sadly just have the magnifying glass which is horrendous bc ill be on top of the reaper yet wont show hp

[loud breach]

but if you're at max level, ya should get a high level Reaper

[grand plover]

nah im ust 98

[loud breach]

that's too low but if ya do managed to find a 145-150 Queen, ya should still go for it

if the server ya are playing on has fast hatching rate, ya might want to trap her and get impregnated multiple times

[grand plover]

yeah thats what im shooting for if it would give me anything higher than lvl 90 so far

[loud breach]

that's unfortunately how story maps are, they favor low level spawns

I heard that someone on official killed 70 Queens until a 130 showed up

that 130 wasn't even good but it's all they got

of course, they happened to found a 145 with very good Melee, health and stamina 15 minutes before the server restarted 🤣🤣🤣

that 145 Reaper Queen they found was the best one I've ever seen in my whole just over 100 hours playing on Aberration

[burnt nexus]

Was that Xbox issue fixed?

[foggy raven]

good

[upbeat verge]

Not yet

[shut umbra]

Bro I love the people on this LC official they trapped a 135 reaper and let everyone get one so happy

[frozen arrow]

Any news on ps5 crashes? Or is this the new norm? Xd

[loud breach]

old norm

when hasn't ASA been crashing on PS5?

[frozen arrow]

Damn, last summer used to have a crash once a week now twice an hour lmao

[loud breach]

I'm on PS5 Pro and I still can't play Ragnarok on Single Player even

Astraeos is just a storage map for me as well, I don't even play it, just store my stuff in it

[limber lynx]

again lost items after server down... headslot torso legs and feet. Yesterday my Veilwyn died in companion mode (cause starving) while i was using it with whistle comands, it was full of meat and just grapped by a megalo..., 2 or 3 days ago all my hotbar items disappered after server down. The Vaults of the Outpost missions despawn or sometimes u kill the boss and get no key or sometimes the last enemy dont show up. @Wildcard do you know that? pls fix this. if you loose a tek set on the fresh LC servers its painfull same like cryotames and ascendend chainsaw in the hotbar.... i like the game, i like the new map and to explore it but thats demotivating. 3 weeks ago got meshed on my old server. Meshers still dont die but i do when i leave hop down from my tame in just a random spot where the game thinks "oh lets mesh kill him he is on a bridge or on top of a mountain". Its demotivating

[humble walrus]

Yous are finding the game crashes??

I only ask because im considering playing on ps5

[crimson thorn]

how can you survive in the lava on astras?

[fading ice]

have you tried not encountering lava

[novel osprey]

It’d be awesome if there was an armor tier just for thralls. Imagine customizing them I’d love to see a bunch of them rocking some riot-style armor.

Or even being able to create level 1 thralls—it’d be cool to have a bunch of low-level ones assigned to base maintenance.

[lapis valley]

Inventory crashing years later is insane does anybody have a fix for this

That’s what happens when you reskin an old game that was never optimized in the first place🙂

Crashing at VB like old ASE too, WC will never change

Paid game, paid DLCS, forgot to optimize the game first!

[fading ice]

not how anything actually works, but go off lol

[cedar niche]

Ark descended is really hard

I was unaware that the first boss had 145k hp

[lapis valley]

All the ASA were assets from ASE

[fading ice]

no 🤔

not like you actually care or want to know why it is crashing, or find a solution, so.. lol

[lapis valley]

Yes

[lapis valley]

Based on the context of the game ARK: Survival Ascended (ASA) and ARK: Survival Evolved (ASE), yes, a significant portion of the base assets in ASA is built upon or adapted from assets in ASE, but they have been overhauled and upgraded for a new engine (Unreal Engine 5).

[fading ice]

chatGPT-looking noise

leave development to developers, unless you actually want troubleshooting

[lapis valley]

Know it all guy on a hard backtrack, and try google friend?😆😆😆😆

Fluff dragon is suitable for you softy

[fading ice]

what am i googling, again? i have a decade experience working with the game and unreal engine, significantly more programming experience, ect. pretty sure i know how the game is designed, more than someone asking chatGPT to agree with them. have fun with your weird crashout

[lapis valley]

Key details regarding the relationship between the two:
Asset Transfer: Much of the core content, including maps and base game assets, was transferred from ASE to ASA.
Upgrades: These assets were not just copied; they were heavily reworked to utilize new technology, such as dynamic lighting (Lumen) and better geometry (Nanite).
Distinctions: While base game assets are largely similar, ASA includes new creatures and quality-of-life improvements not present in the original game.
Exceptions: "Bob's Tall Tales" (a DLC) and other paid, post-launch content are not considered part of the initial base game transfer.
Therefore, while the assets are "borrowed" or, more accurately, remastered from the original, they are presented as a new experience in the upgraded version.

[keen quarry]

Guys I can’t find any high lvl tame it Rex ok the island

[lapis valley]

Outside with you then fluffy

[fading ice]

at least think for yourself instead of getting a bot to vomit up stuff until you get something you like the sound of, just embarrassing

[lapis valley]

GO OUTSIDE

[small hamlet]

guys do you also have way less dinos spawning since one of the latest patches?

[fading ice]

the island has a lower level average than other maps, and defaults to a max of 120. there are several mods that fix that. iirc "vanilla with sprinkles" does, and works on console without needing to edit config files. otherwise it is just a matter of luck

[lapis valley]

I used google fluffy, google was invented long before your time..

[keen quarry]

Im farming carno island and no Rex 130+ is spawning

[lapis valley]

Pure sheep activity here in denial that the game is reskinned ASE despite the obvious facts, having “years experience on Ark” and gaming ☝️🤓 you’d think you’d back track sooner since you are so familiar with Ark!

WC is criminal and due for a class action imo

[autumn osprey]

A class action for what? Did someone hold you at gunpoint to buy the game?😭 insert that gif of the guy with the pizzas walking in to the room on fire. That's me walking into this conversation rn

[lapis valley]

outta here arguing with nerd on discord

[autumn osprey]

I'm far from defending Wildcard or Snail Games, but a lawsuit is wild

[lapis valley]

Waste of hard earned money man damn shame

[dawn jewel]

They spawn. Just harder to find. The day i was just building and while getting wood ran into a 145 rex. And that was closer to green ob. I never found anything higher than 115 on carno island. But that was just rng for me

[small hamlet]

can somebody answer because im going mad crazy because of this

[loud breach]

that's just how story maps are with the Island being the worst among them

[fading ice]

and your level cap is 150?

[loud breach]

On Single Player?

[keen quarry]

Yes

[fading ice]

slap a mod on to fix the level weights, i guess

[dawn jewel]

I wont be on for a while yet. I would let you know if i saw a difference though. Which map?

[fading ice]

story maps are meant to have lower level ranges, at least the early ones

[keen quarry]

😭 😭 😭

[loud breach]

@keen quarry if installing mods an option, I recommend Mx Modified Spawn Level Distribution or Vanilla with Sprinkles

[keen quarry]

It’s ragebait ngl

[loud breach]

it's meant to test ya

[keen quarry]

They just increase the lvls right

[loud breach]

the survivor that is

[fading ice]

you are now, i guess. watch out for the incoming chatGPT thesis about your morality

[loud breach]

Vanilla with Sprinkles does way more but if ya just want higher levels to spawn, Mx Modified Spawn Level Distribution is your choice

[fading ice]

as soon as bobby buys more tokens

[loud breach]

it makes creature spawn the same way as The Center and Ragnarok where high level spawns are favored

[glass rain]

Hi everyone,

I just installed ARK on my ASUS ROG ally (in Xbox not in steam) and run into an issue.

It installed build 78.16 so that’s good. Now I can see most official servers except the small tribes servers. Currently me and my GF play on small tribes so we can’t find our servers any one an idea what to do?

[keen quarry]

Alr thanks

[loud breach]

is Player Server ticked on or off?

[keen quarry]

@loud breach single player btw

[cold schooner]

Since last update I can’t open mod page or get on server with mods, on x box already reinstalled, as my ideas? Getting message saying client is currently trying to connect to mod services

[glass rain]

Sorry what do you mean?

In password protected servers?

[loud breach]

in the menu where ya search for servers, there should be some filters

one of them is "Player Server"

[cold schooner]

Getting message saying client is currently trying to connect to mod services

[loud breach]

please install Mx Modified Spawn Level Distribution, ya will never play without it again

[keen quarry]

Alr thx

[humble walrus]

Anyone for ps5? I'm getting the game on ps so wanna know if it is worth it

[glass rain]

Yes o see that one but that is for unofficial. I want to play official small tribes PvP

[keen quarry]

It prob will

[glass rain]

It is off btw

[loud breach]

ah, it's official

then it's probably the Xbox related issue that's currently ongoing

rule of thumb, if it's official, ya can't really do much about it besides waiting

[glass rain]

Ah Ok, i only have this issue on the ROG not on the Xbox itself

[loud breach]

but ya are playing the Microsoft version no?

or Xbox store whatever it is called

[glass rain]

Xbox version

[loud breach]

that's Xbox

[loud breach]

👆

[glass rain]

Ah alright so there is most likely an issue on Xbox side related to the ROG

[loud breach]

no, it's an Xbox issue in general

see above, you're not the only one with the Xbox tag that's experiencing this

[glass rain]

How come I can join on my Xbox console it self then?

[loud breach]

a server side patch got released few hours ago

[glass rain]

Oh

I see sorry I will wait it out and see tmrrw tx

[loud breach]

no clue but if ya want to avoid this sort of problems, I recommend getting the Steam version on your ROG or stream the gameplay from your Xbox if that's a thing

[keen quarry]

@loud breach downlowd end let’s hope it gives me 130+

[loud breach]

don't forget to a dino wipe

[keen quarry]

Did it alr

All wild dinos erased

[loud breach]

it's still the Island though so don't expect a 130+ to show up immediately but I guarantee ya that after while, ya will get used to the better spawn distribution so much so that if ya were to remove the mod, ya will instantly notice the drop

[keen quarry]

Alr

[loud breach]

of course, that mod only works for lore maps which are Scorched Earth, Aberration, Extinction and even Lost Colony

The Center, Ragnarok and I think Valguero already have high level spawn distribution

[keen quarry]

Yes on valguero always find high lvls

[loud breach]

it'll be just like that from now on those maps

the mod is completely safe to uninstall if ya ever want to for some reason and there's a variant of it that makes Level 150 the minimum

if ya ever feel like going on a taming spree then uninstall it later

[idle steeple]

Did they fix the crashing in the city yet?

[loud breach]

nope

[loud breach]

are ya on Single Player or Dedicated?

[tight basalt]

When r they going to make the official rates 2x all the time. My god lol

[loud breach]

it's basically 2x at all times

[pearl quartz]

not gonna lie i am bored sh**less by lost colony

[echo ridge]

I have had Dino’s in cryos disappear arbitrarily all day on LC. That and the amount of time we waste on city missions just to have npcs fall off bridges out of bounds so we can’t complete them is doing me in. Do other LC servers have that mission issue?

[idle steeple]

Dedicated

[small hamlet]

yes bro

[small hamlet]

im playing on Ragnarok

[pearl quartz]

and it is happening on official

[indigo swallow]

Does anyone wanna trio a unofficial with me and a buddy?

[echo ridge]

I love all the new aspects of LC (I’m on official) but it’s so broken it’s hard to enjoy what it could be

[pearl quartz]

official here also and LC is broken or just rubbish. Beem an advocate of spporting WC but honestly i have had enough

[indigo swallow]

!recruit

[idle steeple]

Its another dlc that needed an extra 5-7 months in development

[green hearth]

any modders or devs in here?

[pearl quartz]

yeah but won't get that as they are already working on the next con

[pearl quartz]

wildcard make Chris Roberts look honest. All the youtubbers rag on snail but woldcard are no different at all

[loud breach]

is it yours?

[idle steeple]

Wildcard didnt blow millions on a electric car so they still come out ahead by a bit

[loud breach]

yeah, Single Player has spawning issues and there's currently a bug where creatures can despawn as soon as ya leave render distance

[idle steeple]

Yes

[loud breach]

then try adding this argument then do a dino wipe

-nopatrols

I can't promise that it'll stop the crashes but it'll definitely reduce the frequency

[pearl quartz]

been an ongoing issue since ase launcged

[idle steeple]

Doesnt that just remove everything that makes the city cool XD

[loud breach]

that's one of the reasons that's causing crashes on consoles

hence why they disabled it on Single Player

[idle steeple]

I swear they dont test their shit these are things that would pop up within seconds of testing

[loud breach]

ya are playing on a console so ya don't get to have both

[loud breach]

no, they do test, just not on console

[pearl quartz]

hahahahaha

[loud breach]

and only on servers and not Single Player

[idle steeple]

Im on pc and this shit crashes alot and still has all kinds of problems

[loud breach]

oh wait, I thought ya were on console, my bad

[idle steeple]

The fact this game runs on consoles amazes me

[loud breach]

I could swear someone else with a similar profile picture of yours had the PS logo next to their hame, my bad

then lower the graphics maybe?

[idle steeple]

It only crashes in the city and only if i get off my mount for some reason but the map has alot of other issues linked to the outposts

[pearl quartz]

it runs on xbox X and ps4 cloud really well

[loud breach]

screw those and just spawn the sigils needed

ya can farm them properly later once they actually fix the map

go defeat the boss and leave this forsaken map

[idle steeple]

Mobs teleporting inside the mesh or straight up spawning there. Starting a outpost causing the server to have a heart attack for 30 seconds

[loud breach]

yep, same for me

[pearl quartz]

you only have to watch youtubbers to see how bad it is even with highest specs

[loud breach]

my friend loves doing these stupid outposts

[idle steeple]

Had a defense where mods were spawning in stuck in the rafters of the outpost so we had to shoot at them to kill them

[loud breach]

but me personally, once I get good stat pairs of the new creatures, I'm leaving this garbage map

heading back to Aberration

[idle steeple]

A good bandaid fix would be if the timer runs out you win instead of lose so if something on their end fucks up you dont get fucked over

[night flicker]

lol terrible idea people could legit just hide till win, if anything fix would be enemies get respawned near mission point if not damaged for a certain amount of time

[loud breach]

if it's winning, people would abuse it

case in point ^^

if it worked like that, I won't even bring a proper dino, just an army of tanky creatures and waste time

[idle steeple]

Acting like they could manage that XD

[grand plover]

wtf is going on with the aureliax is it just me or is it buggy as hell now

[feral elm]

Is dino breeding fixed for microsoft now? The only patch note that mentions it mentions steam and no other platforms 🙃

[loud breach]

Microsoft is the Xbox version I believe, no?

but it should be fixed, yeah

[feral elm]

Yeah

[loud breach]

yep, blame one of the most recent updates

[feral elm]

Im asking because theres no way to check because the owner of the cluster I play on doesnt want to bring the servers back up until he sees a patch note about breeding that mentions xbox

[loud breach]

or extended the mission area.

I don't even understand how is a thing in the first place when back in Genesis, this never happened from what I recall

missions would lead ya all across the biome with no issue

but 15 meters out and ya fail?

[night flicker]

problem with that is mission dinos in bases etc

[loud breach]

get rid of the bases then, they're stupid anyways and don't do anything besides wasting your time

[wheat nest]

why are things mating now even if the male doesnt have mating on?

[night flicker]

simple fix is just a respawn near mission loc, no real negatives too it

[loud breach]

did ya update your game?

[loud breach]

I bet ya that this will break 50 other things

[wheat nest]

yes

[loud breach]

then try Cryo all your tames then deploying them

if the issue is still persisting, turn off mating on your females

only the Males should be affected by this

[hazy harness]

When are you going to fix the problem of Thrall crashing the server and going underground? I've already lost 10?

[indigo swallow]

LF a third

[severe spruce]

whats you guys favorite lost colony dino so far?

[idle steeple]

the ossidon looks like it had some actual love put into it for once

the gigabat is souless tho with lifeless animations

[severe spruce]

I saw they brought the vamp bat back. haven't caught one yet

[idle steeple]

That one is as good as it was cant mess with perfection

im confused why the evil solwyn cant climb things. feels like it should be able to

[severe spruce]

I sure can mess with perfection. I has a gene scanner

[grand plover]

how do tek creatures work can any spawn in LC? seen a tek giga once in astraeos idk if they are just really rare spawns on any map or specific maps

[idle steeple]

i got the improved gene scanner mod and that is a godsend being able to move traits from one type of dino to another

[last sedge]

tek variants only spawn on extinction and astraeos

same % for one to spawn over a vanilla one as in ASE

[grand plover]

ah ok and probably genesis when it comes out?

[idle steeple]

there was this handy mod that added tek dinos to every map but the dude lost the source code or something

[last sedge]

genesis 1 for sure. 2 maybe

[grand plover]

that would of been a cool mod. i think finding tek variants are fun to find id like them on all maps

a tek aureliax would be pretty sick

[last sedge]

mod still works

[severe spruce]

I like that we got Tek crop plots "early"

[idle steeple]

it does still work but it wont ever get an update

[last sedge]

just no further updates

[idle steeple]

so who knows when it will break

[last sedge]

thuesday

[idle steeple]

the ark devs break numerable things daily

[last sedge]

WC doesn't concern itself how updates will affect individual mods

[idle steeple]

i meant they break they own stuff

[last sedge]

some mods if made right can work after hunderds of updates

[idle steeple]

this game actually handles mods really well

[severe spruce]

have you seen the rocks on LC bugging out

[grand plover]

yeah like my elastic aureliax

[idle steeple]

like you can put in 40 mods play for a few days then remove them all and barely have any problems

try that with skyrim and its gonna CTD

[last sedge]

depends on the mods

[idle steeple]

removing an asset of any kind on skyrim normaly sends it into a tale spiral but this game just goes "yeah that shit aint here no more sorry"

[fervent basalt]

For boss fights (like Rockwell) as long as the person starting the fight is 100 will it pull the others with if they're in a tribe

[last sedge]

i think so

[small citrus]

2x?

[last sedge]

yes #server-rates

[fervent basalt]

What about alliance?

[last sedge]

that not so sure

[rugged carbon]

what are the best creature for getting artifact from a cave?

[last sedge]

best to just make some pump action and kill spinos with a 4x and 2x on

[carmine prawn]

does killing tamed dinos not give drakelings Loot Crate XP anymore?

[severe spruce]

I hunt wyverns for loot xp

[last sedge]

on official pve i don't think so

[carmine prawn]

i play on unoffical servers, and i use DIno Depo, I fixed the TameKill XP multipler but when i kill Dinos in the terminals it doesnt give anything

[flat creek]

Any Xbox players still can’t connect to unofficial servers ?

Keeps giving me client is currently trying to confirm connection

[eager crest]

im on pc and its giving me the same error

Worked to login now

restarted the game

[flat creek]

I seen a post clearing reserved data for me just fixed it. Went past the that screen just have to redownload my mods again

[dawn shale]

"AShooterGameMode::SaveWorld: attempt at save failed - let's crash!" nitrado server shut down with this message. any tips?

[stiff oasis]

any way to spawn lc mission key??

[lusty cradle]

Does anyone have a spawn map for the base missions on LC? I can’t find one with accurate spawns

[acoustic goblet]

What stats on Theri do i need to beat alpha dragon on island ?

[fringe breach]

anyone knows when the wandering titan spawns on NA servers?

[last sedge]

21k hp more than 800% melee, 60+ armor and 15 veggie cakes each

[grave pine]

So I started to download mods again and getting the error again.

There has to be an issue with certain mods.

it no longer does

[vital thorn]

Kk thank you

[valid forge]

First time stealing wyvern and magmasaur eggs any tips (I’m using a pteranodon)

[naive herald]

Yeah was/still am having these issues. Very well may have lost my character. I’m not understanding why this still hasn’t been addressed. Not going to be happy if I did lose my character as this update that messed all this up wasn’t even announced for Xbox. This most recent server side updates the last one

[shy sable]

Is there a way to transfer servers with a companion whilst it is in recovery mode? Or just have to wait?

[smoky violet]

Gotta wait

[lusty cradle]

Pretty sure it gets deleted like that

which can be a method to get rid of a low level one that died tho

[daring bone]

what do you do if someone is blocking explorer notes on official servers?

[last sedge]

try another server

[severe spruce]

screen shot, submit ticket with the info they ask for and wait. or yeah, server hop.

[stark sundial]

Anyone recruiting

[glossy crow]

No but will you like to team up

[stark sundial]

Ye sure mate we find a server or do you have one in mind ?

[glossy crow]

No do not have one

[glossy crow]

I just sent friend request

[gray hare]

@naive herald I hope that you have not lost your character yet. I lost my 150 level with the update.

[drifting yacht]

@glossy crow @stark sundial New Slick Rick's cluster check it out

[grizzled obsidian]

Alright, Is it just a me thing, or are yall still having tree's not despawning after breaking them?

[nimble dew]

Any good trait recs for a Quetz w/ platform? Sortof a flying merchant type thing with repairs n whatnot

[surreal breach]

yup but only occasionally. If I relog it usually fixes itself.

[grizzled obsidian]

Its driving me crazy. Thanks @surreal breach

[spark summit]

how do i get in touch with admins about players meshing and dupeing

i submitted a ticket. but is there a faster way?

[storm kiln]

Either we are going to be getting a big community crunch biggest ever are skipping a day

[edgy cape]

You write it on a paper , then tie it to a rock . Go over to your window and throw it out , theres a better chance at doing THAT than getting help

[hollow fossil]

Are thralls still bugged where if they are on one of your creatures, they won't attack anything?

[spark summit]

fuckin ridiculous. . its sad that they dont fix shit.

same old ark since day 1

[edgy cape]

Theres basically NO support for this game and it's sad

[hollow fossil]

Are thralls still bugged where if they are on one of your creatures, they won't attack anything?

[edgy cape]

maybe post this a third time and you'll still not get an answer lol

check the patch notes

[hollow fossil]

Idgaf I either give up immediately, or try getting an answer

[hollow fossil]

Obv not in there or else I wouldn't be asking

[fallow pecan]

@azure pine you know anything about why i cant see some servers but i can join others

[edgy cape]

THEN , maybe it wasn't fixed then ??

[grand axle]

Are you for real?
Performance improvement related to Zombies (woo gainz 💪)
is this a joke?
Where is the Defence outpost fix?

[hollow fossil]

Maybe it was man who knows. Or maybe I'm doing something wrong... Hence why I am asking

[foggy star]

i cant join lost colony server i can do single player but not join a server

[edgy cape]

THIS patch couldn't be tacked onto a bigger one at a later date? really???

[hollow fossil]

Is your ark the same version as the server's

[foggy star]

yes ive tried all day

[edgy cape]

This is the third update of the day in this game

[foggy star]

verified twice

[cyan moon]

Any chance we fix solwyn? Mine seems to slide all the time since the last update

[exotic hill]

Same issue - anyone have an idea

[cyan moon]

Have more pt follow you if there isn't alot of wild dino. The wyv can agro onto the extra PTs while you get away

[jagged osprey]

3rd update of the day and they still haven't fixed the freaking trees

[celest mulch]

anyone know why logging into official says unknown error?

[foggy star]

okay im ver is. 15 n i want the .16 version how do i force update cuz im reset steam and my pc to no luck

[hollow fossil]

Are thralls worth having on foot in the boss fight?

[azure pine]

78.16 is for servers only. 78.15 is the client version.

[foggy star]

then my game version is fine i legit cant join it makes no sense ive done all the google things

[quick sleet]

So attack outposts out of city still don’t reward red ele or sigils. They’re basically taking up potential spawns for defense when anyone can farm attack ones in city

[thorny granite]

Quick questiroonie... does anything aggro an unconscious spino? Or maybe I'll just put it in a trap anyway to be safe...

I feel like awhile back I found a link or chart that listed what aggros on what but don't remember where.

[potent cobalt]

Whats the Barracks for on Lost Colony? Is it just astectic or is it like an outpost?

[sturdy heath]

what are the best creature for getting artifact from a cave?

never been in a cave before and in solo

[stiff oasis]

which map

[rugged carbon]

the island

[stiff oasis]

which cave

[rugged carbon]

lemme check for the name

[stiff oasis]

but for me a sabertooth or direwolf is the best option

[rugged carbon]

lava cave i believe

i will try sabertooth ty

[sturdy heath]

I like terror bird for lava cave. They great for jumping over little gaps lol

Or just foot and grapples

[rugged carbon]

whichever i find first ill use then cuz i haven’t tamed either

[gentle cove]

i feel like there nurfing thralls to make them boring and useless what dose everyone think

[coral acorn]

My game started working and now it's back to the mod connect issue

[stiff oasis]

at this point I just use them to fix my loneliness in sp

[topaz imp]

will the elderclaw, drakelings, and lc be separated eventually? I already have them all but still curious

[idle sundial]

what dinos give prime fish meat

[stiff oasis]

I think they made them as seperate dlcs

[thorny granite]

Most of the big water ones plus salmon.

[hollow fossil]

Uhhh why isn't the final battle in the lost colony boss fight starting???

[topaz imp]

not on steam currently

[stiff oasis]

no I didn't mean that

like it was made for seperate but not seperated I guess

[hollow fossil]

I am at the final battle of the lost colony boss fight and the timer is just ticking down without ANYTHING happening

[topaz imp]

ah kk

[inland forge]

No crunch?

[oak robin]

My first attempt tonight the timer apparently kept running in the cut scene after beating the megadesmodus and mid cut scene just kicked/failed me!

[carmine monolith]

so this is weird.. some tames taht are on ceilings "fell" to areas covered by foundation.. including some babies that are growing that i now cannot find

[faint flax]

bruh did they nerf drakelings again? got a high lvl one and still only getting mastercraft when get 30k xp 😓

[loud breach]

what's your Drakeling level?

[halcyon ravine]

The lost colony boss has a new issue where it kicks you out and says "Mission Failed". All players (dead or alive) and tames get ejected back to terminal and tributes are lost . . .

[faint flax]

253

[last sedge]

Drakeling level matter in the quality of the loot, not sure if it affect the level of the jey

[spare nacelle]

Do we have any information about when the next map is coming?

[hazy lily]

Anyone else wondering where the community crunch be at or just me 🤔

[short widget]

Why did a Carchar despawn in singleplayer? I found it, went to base to get taming supplies, went to its spawn location and its gone. This is unacceptable devs

[half cobalt]

Hey yall I have an issue, could anyone help maybe 🙃

[fading ice]

crunchpost supreme?

[loud breach]

for maximum loot, ya need at least Level 400

[loud breach]

there's currently a bug in Single Player where creatures can despawn as soon as ya leave render distance

[short widget]

I’m well aware of this, hoping the devs get off their asses and fix this instead of anti-fun shit like disabling thralls getting reaper pregnancies.

[loud breach]

that was never intended in the first place

even the method of it wasn't natural, ya had to let the Queen grab ya behind one for it to work

if ya want high level Reaper, level up your player, it's as simple as that

[half cobalt]

Me and my bf were playing ark ascended just fine last night and now every time he tries to open the game, either it crashes or when he tries to load into the save it crashes on the loading screen. We were playing on the ragnarok map and now he can’t even get in. He uses a series s and I use an x if that helps at all!

[loud breach]

non-dedicated?

[half cobalt]

Yes

[loud breach]

Ragnarok is trash on Single Player (which non-Dedicated is) on console

most likely his save file got corrupted

[faint flax]

whelp don't got a 400 just 253 so would need to get one later

[loud breach]

the S is the worst platform to play Ragnarok and Astraeos on

[loud breach]

level it up before giving the xp to a creature

also, ya can use the War Bench to combine Drakeling chests

[half cobalt]

Could it affect him being able to get into any map? Since it’s crashing on the start menu too

[loud breach]

ya do risk getting a lower rating one but if ya are drowning in xp, might as well try it

[loud breach]

that could be a Series S issue as well, most likely caused by the latest update

tell him to wait until the next patch or take a screenshot of all his mods and in-game settings then reinstall the game

that might help and if it does, please move out from Ragnarok as soon as possible

don't bother with Astraeos either, at least not until he upgrades to the X or PC because the alternative is playing without mods which even then isn't guaranteed to be safe

consoles just can't handle Ragnarok and Astraeos, not even on dedicated servers

[faint flax]

i mean i'm still getting insanely good loot just no LC saddles need excapt one maylwyn saddle

[half cobalt]

That’s so awful😭 thank you so much for the help

[faint flax]

combine the chests? sounds weird

[faint flax]

also that is max so would need to tame/breed out some high levels 😓

[elfin elm]

Can someone explain to me how the Gene Scanner's creature scanner works?

[night swan]

how do i report something

[stiff oasis]

I only know green means correct way

[stiff oasis]

yup there is something like that but I didn't ever tried it

[faint flax]

you basically equip it and hold reload thing to bring up the UI wheel and choose option to find a creature and you scroll till get one want and if able to it tracks it red means not in aoe looking yellow close and green in that direction

[sacred ruin]

Yo have they fixed the Player1 issue? I'm literally having this bug.

[elfin elm]

Interesting. Alright, what does it mean if it returns a message "Now Applicable Creature on this Ark of the level" or something like that

[faint flax]

means there's no creature there or in rendering range

[mighty thicket]

anyone know how to fix my skilltree keeps resetting but others ppl aren't resetting

[faint flax]

need stuff like prevent hibernation to help if on single player

liking better breeding mod ensuring get the actual stats from parents tho only drawback is levels can't go above parents 😓

[gleaming rune]

no community crunch this week ?

[elfin elm]

So if I use the scanner to scan for a Basilosaurus on the Island Ark, and it says nothing found, that does not mean that there is no Basilosaurus on the entire map?

[twin spade]

Why do I have a ping on the official EU server that is 200 all the time?

[faint flax]

not in your area if in singleplayer

it doesn't track targets that are in hibernation

[elfin elm]

I see. So how do I make it able to scan a much longer range? I am trynna use it to scan for Quetzals

[faint flax]

there's a mod called prevent hibernation that turns off hibernation for freshly spawned dinos tho can cause lag cause system has to register alot more dinos

[elfin elm]

I see. So how is this tool meant to be used in SP? How long is the default range on it?

[faint flax]

dunno render range tbh

most do is go around an area stop try scanning for a dino and if don't find it move to next of possible spawn zones

[elfin elm]

But cant the Quetzal spawn literally anywhere on the map?

[faint flax]

has certain range of spawns can be in

[celest mulch]

Anyone on Rag6078? Looks offline, but battlemetrics says online :/

[elfin elm]

The range seems to be pretty solid. It was able to track an Archeopteryx that was in the redwood forest from the bottom of the footpaw

Also Rhyinagothia is not showing up on the scanner list

[misty turtle]

it also base on your character level to scan wild creatures level

may be there one but have higher level than level you can scan it also said that

[loud breach]

yeah, it's a relatively newly discovered thing

[loud breach]

on Single Player, it only points ya to the nearest Creature that ya specify if it has spawned that is

[misty turtle]

you can even combine the treasure map

[faint flax]

debating replacing better breeding mod with potion mod since former ensures get the great stats but can't be higher level then best parent but at same time aside from drakeling not sure really gonna affect much

[misty turtle]

[loud breach]

on PC, ya don't need the mod and if ya have enough RAM, ya can use it safely

@elfin elm what's your PC specs?

[elfin elm]

My survivor is level 105 so it says level 131 and the odds that a Basilosaurus exists that is higher than 131 is slim

[loud breach]

ignore that, the Gene Scanner has been bugged since release and is able to track max level even if ya are Level 1

[elfin elm]

Why? It will take a few minutes to get them cuz I cant for the life of me remember what CPU is in this thing

[loud breach]

I just need to know how much RAM ya got

[elfin elm]

32 Gigs RAM
16 Gigs VRAM

[loud breach]

that's more than enough

look up "how to disable prevent hibernation ARK Ascended"

[elfin elm]

Yeah my rig is a beast

[loud breach]

if ya are playing the Xbox version from the Microsoft store, ya can just download the mod instead

[elfin elm]

So what will this do?

[loud breach]

the Gene Scanner still won't scan the entire map initially but what this settings does is that, it allow creatures to spawn in areas that ya have visited at least once during that session

and allow the Gene Scanner to scan those area as well

so for example, let's say ya drop by the volcano on the way island then head back to the tundra on the top

if a Quetz has spawned anywhere between those areas that ya have visited, the Gene Scanner as well as tracking mods will be able to track it from across the map

however, ya will need to do this every single time ya load into your world because if it's a new session, those areas needs to be loaded at least once, Single Player doesn't do it automatically, only dedicated does

[elfin elm]

Interesting. ALso I think the Gene Scanner is broken. I am having it scan for Giganotoraptors and it is saying there is none... but Im looking at one

[elfin elm]

Will this affect creatures spawning? Like will it make creatures over/under spawn

[loud breach]

it'll make them spawn much much more often

[faint flax]

think pro of better breeding is ensure get good levels and they get good stats while potion seems like can just boost the wild stats as high as want but level seems like the usual risk to ensure game same lvl or higher then parent

[loud breach]

it'll feel like ya are playing a different game

I remember when I first installed the Prevent Hibernation mod on my Single Player world in PS5

so many creatures I've never seen before 😭

unfortunately, on console, ya have to wipe frequently because if ya don't, the game will start crashing more frequently and eventually corrupt your save file

only PC players can disable Prevent Hibernation safely 😢

[elfin elm]

So creatures will spawn much more densely?

[misty turtle]

whole new world huh xD

[elfin elm]

Okay I do not understand the range on this Gene Scanner. It was just able to track a Quetzalcoatlus that was at the top of the tundra zone from the area above the redwoods just below the volcano

[night trout]

There's a mod called Better Trains, I looked into it more. It does what (I assume) you want, but it's a replacement mod meaning if it ever stops being updated and breaks, you're going to lose all the structures you placed with it.

[loud breach]

it's tied to your render distance

[opaque fjord]

What do u level on velos

[night trout]

Melee, stam

Stam has priority for PvP cus that's their ammunition (aka what you use to stop peeps from soaking), Melee has priority in every other situation

[loud breach]

I believe it's around 33 Foundations

[loud breach]

Melee but only if ya ride it

[night trout]

In singleplayer yeah. It goes infinitely in servers.

[loud breach]

Stamina is important too since it uses a lot when ridden

[opaque fjord]

Bet yea just for turret defense

[loud breach]

no, it's still 33 Foundations in dedicated, it's just the entire map is kept loaded so the Gene Scanner and other tracking mods can track creatures anywhere on the map

[loud breach]

Then health

[young tusk]

Guys, when TLC update is gonna release?

[loud breach]

do ya happen to know if they use stamina when not ridden?

[night trout]

Supposedly over the course of the year, they're doing one at a time

[loud breach]

anytime this year, they didn't specify

[night trout]

For attacks yeah, for moving no.

[loud breach]

at the very least, the Araneo should be before Genesis 1

because if they release it later, it'll be dead on arrival

[night trout]

That's pretty hype if so, the bog biome becomes actually fun to explore before getting a Bloodstalker

[loud breach]

@opaque fjord prioritize stamina over health

I didn't know they used stamina in Turret Mode when not ridden

[night trout]

For a moment there, part of me wondered if it's possible to just dump like ten wild Velos in a corner and use them as your base defense because they never run out of stam... then my PvP memories kicked in and I remembered that guns exist XD

Does anyone know if Velos can still solo Lava Golem?

I know the big guy walks along the sides now, which makes it harder to cheese him

[past iron]

Where are the bees spawning on LC. I know they're jacked up and spawning on each other in a stack of like 30, but I've never even seen them on our server. I know we got them, the bigger tribes have them, but they're pretty much playing the game like it's pvp not pve
To add, I know they're supposed to spawn in the ravine to the left of the city.

[sacred ruin]

?

[loud breach]

bugged spawns

they spawn in 2 locations only and they all stack on top of each other as well

if one location already has them spawned, the game will not attempt to spawn them on the second location until the first is cleared

TLDR: wait for a patch to address it and in the meantime, if the location they're on is already occupied, hop into another server until ya find one that hasn't been occupied yet

if it's on unofficial, contact and admin explain them the issue

either ask for that that tribe to get banned or for the Admin to spawn in tamed Queens

[loud breach]

as long as ya riding one, yes.

a super mutated one can even melt the Wandering King Titan which has 500k HP

[faint flax]

tamed a 135 drakeling to highest can get a baby would be 202 so improvement over previous 165 but still ways off

[loud breach]

yeah, ya need to mutate

[faint flax]

not sure would wanna mutate tbh

[loud breach]

luckily for Drakelings, most of thier stats are irreverent

thier shoulder attack is too slow to bother mutating health

stamina is pointless since there's a cooldown anyways

[faint flax]

i mainly just dumped all levels into hp since can give em a helmet so if die they can flee and hopefully not die

[loud breach]

weight I guess? but know that even a 254 mutation on weight won't ya get more than 1300

[loud breach]

good choice 👍

[faint flax]

personally prob gonna just look for a 150 so once fully level it would be lvl 318 or so

[loud breach]

Shoulder pet will only take damage if they aren't on your shoulder or if something like a Vulture or Dimoph attacks them

there's actually a skill in the Lost Colony tree that redirects 50% of damage taken to your shoulder pet under certain condition

so mutation health might be the go to

[glad skiff]

anyone in here good with optimizing

i can give specs of pc my game is so unplayable

[loud breach]

@faint flax can I recommend ya a Drakeling mod?

or is it getting too bloated 🙃?

[faint flax]

i'd need to check how many mods got tbh but dunno if want one specifically for 1 dino tho assume it the chimatic something one

[loud breach]

yep

that one, so freaking good

ya get all 4 seasonal buffs and the biome buff across the entire map

it also has higher HP, Weight and Damage base stats

[faint flax]

on LC and seems to keep same biome buff 😅

[loud breach]

yep, better than a a simple Winter Drakeling that's for sure

ya should try riding a Carcha with one on your shoulder

makes it impossible to die on anything less than Legendary

[candid river]

So nobody at all is questioning why there was no community crunch this week

[loud breach]

I like to think they're so busy cooking up the next patch to ruin other people days

[faint flax]

i already got stuff for that tho

[past iron]

Where are the two locations? I know of one, but not the other. It's also an official server. It sucks that an integral part of the map, just isn't correct. They fixed beaver dams though. yippee

[faint flax]

tbh only thing is want a higher level drakeling but other then that only deal is finding wild 150

[loud breach]

no clue, I haven't tried breaking the one I'm currently on

[twin spade]

I lost all my stuff because players on Extyncion are blocking the teleport, will the wild card do anything about it?

[loud breach]

Dino wipe doesn't seem to affect them either

[loud breach]

nothing because they barely moderate officials

[faint flax]

if they had more staff but more staff= more money 😓

[loud breach]

Extinction has all seasons

I tamed all my 4 150 there for the mod

[faint flax]

got one character and am on LC atm

[loud breach]

good luck with that, I've been slapped my Managarmrs way too much when I was looking to tame some there

dirty manas 😡

[faint flax]

eh not bothered about those they die in 1-2 hits easy

[sacred ruin]

why aren't acrocanthosaurus spawning on the center

on the island and other maps it does

[loud breach]

how many wipes did ya do?

[sacred ruin]

haven't done a wipe yet

[loud breach]

it's recommended that ya do a wipe after adding a creature mod or when ya don't see them spawning

another creature mod could be taking thier spawns

[sacred ruin]

oh okay

[loud breach]

also, make sure the mod is updated to the latest version

I think it got a small update few days ago

[sacred ruin]

actually, it's been a while since I last touched this mod, might as well update it ig

[loud breach]

always update all your mods, Single Player doesn't auto update I believe

[sacred ruin]

yeah, learned it the hard way, anyways thanks

[narrow bloom]

it seems singleplayer is so bugged rnm in lost colony

creatures keep despawning even in render distance

i was js in a mountain and der dino finder showed 1000 creatures, relogged and now there r 40 creatures in the entire map

[loud breach]

yep, not just Lost Colony, it's affecting all maps

also, Single Player works differently, ya need to visit areas on the map at least once every time ya log back in

it's not like dedicated server where the entire map is always loaded from the start

[lyric iris]

i cant cryo my baby ovis on my official lost colony, i just want to go to bed 😭

[loud breach]

keep trying, the hit box on baby creatures, especially newly born ones is wonky

[lyric iris]

ive tried everything, whip, desmo/procoptodon, walkies, whistle to, render, relog

[frozen carbon]

Guys, im creating ticket but it marks as solved instantly ( on survivetheark). Anyone has the same problem?

[loud breach]

Maeguana?

[lyric iris]

not on official pve lost colony

[loud breach]

what about Gigantoraptor?

[lyric iris]

don’t have one, people unwilling to rent

[loud breach]

what's the point of it being PVE server then 💔

[lyric iris]

officials is just kinda unkind in general, pve doesn’t change that

[misty turtle]

man a creature can boost the mature speed will be nice

[torn saddle]

@sage plover @azure pine How come people can paint there fucming dinos again. Already seeying full sollid Gigadesmodus and Desmodus!

[lyric iris]

it would be nice if they could buff procoptodon pouch limits, if it can hold my survivor then it should hold a 13% mature desmo baby

[lyric iris]

same method as before? 👀

[torn saddle]

I dont know. But this shows how bad devs are

[hollow oasis]

Nada do Xbox resolver problema Affs

[harsh ridge]

Where would i report bugs/glitches in lost colony to the developers?

[slender cave]

Have there been any updates as to when the Malwyn 0hp bug will be looked at? Its getting very frustrating when doing an outpost or boss fight where the Malwyns just wont die and keep attacking on 0 hp

[harsh ridge]

it was supposedly "fixed" in a previous patch but obviously wasn't

if it happens on the last wave, try to kill the boss before the outpôst dies

[slender cave]

My tribe just attempted a Beta LC run and got stuck with the 0hp malwyn and could not proceed

[harsh ridge]

it happened to me too on the last wave, i killed the boss before it failed

[slender cave]

ended up quitting....it takes so long to farm all those damn sigils

right about now im feeling like these incompetent devs owe me a full set of LC Boss tributes

[sudden ermine]

Hey, sorry for asking in here,
but can someone help me setting up my dedi Server, i did everything like it says in Documentation from Zap-Hosting but my Server wont show up

[harsh ridge]

your problem starts with zap hosting, don't use shady things to set up servers, nitrado exists

[sudden ermine]

yeah, its kinda also a question of Money, which hosting i choose.

if i could i would rather set it up on my own server, but sadly linux wont work.

[serene flint]

What does monsterious affection do and what's the max

[faint flax]

The Ossidon also gains a buff called 'Monstrous Affection' which begins counting down from 90 when it is mounted.

Once a full 90 seconds has elapsed, it will gain a stack which will remain permanently, even after cryoing.

If you dismount during the 90 seconds it will restart from scratch but will retain all stacks it already had.

Stacks cap out at 20.

Each Stack confers a 0.5% Stat Increase, meaning with all 20 stacks you can gain up to a 10% increase across all stat

[narrow bloom]

aight

ig ill js wait for the next patch

[faint flax]

wonder what stats should level in this ossidon to prep for high tier outposts etc and boss fight

[twin spade]

hey creators of this hilarious game can you finally fix this game?

[misty turtle]

health and mele only

[faint flax]

figured but wondering how far to level them

[serene flint]

When I mounted my friends it said -20 stacks is that bad ?

[faint flax]

i dunno tbh just shared what know and i assume it cause it has affection for him not you

[serene flint]

Ty

[faint flax]

wonder if 30k hp and all rest into melee would be good for ossidons for higher outposts and the boss

[small hamlet]

guys the mod priority is only for public servers or also singleplayer?

[misty turtle]

depend on your base ossidon right now

what stats does it have before level anything

i was thinking level it up like when i still play off 50k health and the rest all in mele for now

[faint flax]

40 hp 41 melee

brb

[misty turtle]

hahaha

yeah then 30k and rest mele until you start breed mut

they get quite a lot per point for health

like 10k health for 13 points

[opaque stump]

No, it just means that because it's not your personal ossidon it doesn't get the bonus on stats from monsterous affection.

[faint flax]

not planning to mut tbh since got other stuff use so was curious in if the 30k good or if going to either 40 or maybe 50k and wasn't sure

[muted zenith]

Its bigger than yours

[sharp oxide]

please stop with the daily updates 😭

[twin spade]

hey how can i get out of the extyncio map if i can't see the teleports

[sharp oxide]

I have not been able to launch the game for 5 days now since it patches everytime

[vocal cape]

GPT: You are running 5 ARK clusters (1 full vanilla, & 4 clusters modified increasingly ≈30 maps total) on one physical machine, using ~91.2 GB disk and under 120 GB RAM, stably, with everyone connected to the same cluster save.
That is far beyond what the ARK community treats as “normal,” and it directly disproves a huge amount of received wisdom.

😎

[faint flax]

need to go to one of the titan terminals

[twin spade]

thx

[misty turtle]

depend you want it to be tanker or dmg dealer

[faint flax]

prob mix since plan to put numb+vampiric on them

[trail mauve]

Dude, I'm stuck inside someone's structure. Is there any way I can talk to a staff member for help?

[pliant fox]

The terminals can take up to an hour and 20 minutes to load but they should load. Also different terminals have different loading speeds

[lament cloud]

is there an update or something coming? My server wont let me in and it restarted over 30 minutes ago and I haven't gotten any notifications from steam

[runic ore]

To get +10lvl from collecting all the notes do i need to collect all of them?

[faint flax]

all story ones yeah

[runic ore]

Does lc also count? I did a lot of missions and i got only one "note"

[faint flax]

that not sure of but wouldn't be shocked if needed too since it is a story map

[runic ore]

Ty, so it may be impossible to do until further fixing, still then I need to do it before g1 releases (idk how much notes it has) (official xd)

I might do just Bob ones and hold od it for later

[faint flax]

yeah can be rough since gotta do various outpost tiers and cache tiers etc

[warm zealot]

Hi im looking for someone to play with im on ps5 dm me

[loud breach]

it's basically an additional imprint that automatically increases the longer ya ride that specific Ossidon for a maximum of 30 minutes

[loud breach]

ya also need good saddles

[loud breach]

there are Terminal scattered around in the city and few outside as well, they look different and are called City Terminals.

[loud breach]

yes, ya can filter out specific map ones from the Notes tab in your inventory

[faint flax]

maybe but figuring out what stats to aim for first good idea for when do get a good saddle

[loud breach]

Health and Melee, 30k hp is fine

for Melee, ya need to deal at least 750 damage per swipe

I don't know how much that translates to percentage given the variables modifiers

also, ride each your Ossidons for 30 minutes, get the affection to max, it's free imprint

[misty turtle]

ossidon with ambusing strike is nice

[loud breach]

personally, I have gotten tired of using them in Resource Caches, the ones with mini game as they clog the area

[misty turtle]

every single attack active ambusing strike feel great

[loud breach]

so I switched to a Giga like mod

[loud breach]

that's a bug by the way so enjoy it while it lasts

[misty turtle]

i mean ossidon quite easy to move around since they can turn in place like deinosuchus

[loud breach]

my farming doed is cleaning up revenant areas 🤣🤣🤣

[misty turtle]

yeah it was fun haha

[loud breach]

try having 20+

[misty turtle]

why need that much for a cache

like 5 good enough already

[faint flax]

thanks to my armor i already it to around there per swipe 😅 granted that's only for the one i'm riding 😅

but yeah i figured 30k prob good enough since if dump rest into melee should do nutty dmg

[loud breach]

because my friend does it this way

[lament goblet]

Anyone else unable to do do the lost colony defence/ attack posts on Xbox due to it crashing ?

[loud breach]

they like flooding the area with Ossidons and rhino even

[loud breach]

in the city ya mean?

[lament goblet]

Only tried one defence one not in city and it was lag fest and crashed on the last stage

[bronze sparrow]

Hi!
Can carcha/giga be transferred to LC?

[hard nebula]

Big question uk how deinonychus can bleed bosses can they bleed king titan

[loud breach]

on official, no

[loud breach]

they'll die in 1 hit but sure

[bronze sparrow]

Even after the map is opened for transfers?

[loud breach]

Single Player I assume?

[lament goblet]

Yeah

[hard nebula]

Ik that I have carchas for actual damage just wondering

[loud breach]

once the transfers are open, it depends on Wildcard if they want to allow Gigas and Carchas to be transferred

[loud breach]

yes they do bleed it

[loud breach]

try doing a dino wipe just before starting one

[bronze sparrow]

Okay, so there hasn't been any communication about this yet?

[loud breach]

nope, they're too busy trying to salvage this dlc

[hard nebula]

Ooh

[loud breach]

not worth it to be honest

their bleed is not like Thyla or Deinosuchus

it's weaker version

[random prism]

On question, why was there no community crunch this time?

[loud breach]

probably this

[random prism]

okay

[loud breach]

I'd take no crunch if it means more actual fixes

[orchid siren]

contact an Admin if the server has thier own discord

seems like ya got caught in an area that's causing your RAM usage to increase

maybe someone's base with million cosmetics?

[faint vortex]

Anyone on ps5 have nods but it says I have no space to download a mod

Have no mods

[acoustic grotto]

ASA is down on Xbox. We cant join any Server

[lean magnet]

we wanted to join unofficial sever hosted by pterodactyl servers but we cant find it. It worked fine last sunday. does anyone know if there are any problems now after the new asa update?

[neon pier]

if it aint broke fix it till it is thats wildCARDS motto

[rustic helm]

Having lots of issues with the Connection in Progress thing for Lost colony. Remove the mod and logs fine. Hope that gets fixed soon.

[loud breach]

how much free space ya have in your console?

[faint vortex]

Not much are you saying that's the problem

I'm nearly full with all my games

[faint vortex]

Do I need to uninstall some games

[loud breach]

how much free space?

[faint vortex]

I have 1 gb left

I have alot of games

[loud breach]

bro 💀

ya need at least 60 GB, maybe even 108

[faint vortex]

Ok I'll delete some

[loud breach]

delete stuff ya aren't playing because ASA will get bigger in a few months

[solemn rivet]

Anyone know of any unofficial clusters with some decent mods on it? I'm mostly a builder so love the deco stuff but would love some dino overhaul mods too, Has to be PVE

[loud breach]

#1110925695900713072

[solemn rivet]

Thanks

[loud breach]

best of luck finding one 🤞

[faint vortex]

It worked thank you

[loud breach]

if it has a discord server, even better

[loud breach]

please don't overload on mods as well

[hard nebula]

Mega mek is set damage isn’t it like the meks use to make it don’t have to b good

[loud breach]

Single Player on console is not kind

[faint vortex]

Ok thanks for the advice

[loud breach]

supposedly, it doesn't matter if ya were to use ones made from the basic blueprint for high level ones

it'll always spawn with the exact same level and stats

but for me, that wasn't the case

I even used an Ascended M.O.M.I

[hard nebula]

Ik it was that way in ase but Asa who knows wat little things they changed

[loud breach]

but got a trash Mega Mek with 160k HP and barely deals any damage

[hard nebula]

Mine purple can’t spell

[loud breach]

backup your world before starting the fight just in case

[hard nebula]

Doing it on a server

[loud breach]

but if they expect people to get Ascended Blueprints for Mek, they're out their mind

[hard nebula]

Tell me about it

[loud breach]

unofficial?

[hard nebula]

Ye

[loud breach]

then contact and admin beforehand

[hard nebula]

Noted

[loud breach]

let them know that there's a possibility chance that the Mega Mek ya end up spawning will be trash

on my own dedicated server server, my friend was the one who use the module with my 4 Primitive Meks

and we had both the Forest and Ice Titans, Alpha

there could be a hidden mechanic where if ya bring a Titan with ya into the fight, it'll affect the Mega Mek level

[hard nebula]

Oh where using max mut osidons carchar and dreads and mega mek

[loud breach]

oh heck yeah, destroy that thing!

if ya can, get a dermis of the Mega Mek and King Titan

[hard nebula]

I don’t dermises but someone join dose so they’ll have that

I’m taking the head and flag I organised the event and brought 3 of each titan head and grinded those hearts

[gloomy plume]

[noble stream]

Hi, When my Veilwyn evolves into Malwyn, will it be able to level up more?

[stiff oasis]

Yes

[noble stream]

Ty

[stiff oasis]

Same with solwyn

[naive herald]

Been about 2 days of constant getting this message 😂😂 been in here talking about it since the surprise update I had on my Xbox.

[naive herald]

Lost my character in the mist of trying to get back on so I can play again. It’s rounding 48 hours at this point since I’ve last been able to get on no issues

[gloomy plume]

Well I found a solution, uninstall lost colony, I tried it and it worked, apparently WILDCARD can’t get things correct and always ruins something with every update

[naive herald]

Hmmm they were telling me “oh this isn’t a wildcard issue” and I call bs. Thank you I’ll give that a try.

[gloomy plume]

No it’s definitely a wildcard issue, it’s specifically with lost colony because now my mods list works without lost colony installed

[naive herald]

Sweet 😂 alrighty let me give that a try go figure the newest map would be game breaking… literally

[gloomy plume]

And no problem, it worked for me so I hope it does to you the same

[naive herald]

Sweet! Giving it a try rn

[stiff oasis]

guys which one gives better the qol+ cs grinder or upgrade station salvage

[pine light]

Can anyone help me pm me if u can

[silent matrix]

anyone else notice obelisks and terminal are broken? i un downloaded all my mods and deactivated them to see if it was a mod issue but no after trying to acsess an obelisk game still crashed

[slate widget]

singleplayer?

[silent matrix]

yep

[slate widget]

turn off dino downloads. use vanilla cryopods to upload into items

[silent matrix]

will do

[loud breach]

regular meat

[silent matrix]

thx for ur help it works now

[loud breach]

there currently seems to be a bug where if ya evolved a Veilwyn into a Sol or Mal, it'll be max level afterwards, at least when using an ascended vulpite so make sure to spend all your level ups on your Veilwyn first

[loud breach]

Upgrade Station

@noble stream it might have gotten patched though, I haven't evolved anything in the past week or so

just don't be surprised if your Veilwyn lost all of its unspent levels after evolution

[noble stream]

Ty

[eternal hill]

Does anyone know of a mod that has different size braziers/torches that can skin deco boxes? One that works on official.

[spiral pond]

what are some unique mods or recommended mods youve come accross? (Question for all)

[loud breach]

for console?

[thorn tide]

my server crashed now my character it’s gone it wants me to make a new one after 40 hours

[spiral pond]

ah well, crossplay

[strong dune]

anyone want pvp on smalls a tribe has a tek fob on me i still have autos and prim flak and they failing

9488 rag

[loud breach]

I got ya, give me a minute to post a list

[brisk thorn]

is there a way i can starve deinosuchus

Bc i been waiting for 30min and i still cant feed it

[loud breach]

oh wait, don't do that then

[brisk thorn]

alr im already 47% into the tame tho and idk what to do now

[loud breach]

without using mods or command, I think I've read that the calming gas ability of the Pachyrhino can make knocked out creatures slightly more hungrier

[brisk thorn]

oh

i dont have that yet

[loud breach]

then nope, just surround it with stone gates and leave the area

[valid hatch]

Someone playing the island??

[loud breach]

unless ya are on a server then just wait it out

[brisk thorn]

Alr thanks

[brisk thorn]

nah im not

[valid hatch]

Someone can help me farming the bosses on the island?

[loud breach]

then ya are on Single Player?

[brisk thorn]

yes

[loud breach]

bro, just use command to starve it 💀

[brisk thorn]

Im kinda new can u send me the command

[loud breach]

admincheat setstatontarget food 100

ya don't need to type admincheat in Single Player but if ya end up hosting or renting a server in the future, it's good to get used to it now

[brisk thorn]

kk thank u very much

[spiral pond]

thank you!

[loud breach]

it's not cheating if ya are thinking that, ya are just saving time

[brisk thorn]

yes bc his food was dropping 0.1 every 2min or so

and i dont wanna wait a few hours to tame this guy

[strong kettle]

why aren't you allowed to have a lot of dinos out if the breeding timers don't go down in scs terminals

[fallen wind]

How do i fix kicked by battleye for bad service version,i have done everything including reinstall windows

[valid hatch]

Someone can help me??

[loud breach]

@spiral pond

Bober Stacks, in my opinion, the best stacking mod out there but only if ya don't mind the whole remapped resource thing

Awesome Teleporters! able to teleport your creatures to ya from anywhere across the map and acts as a Death Cache recovery mod

Auto Muncher, no more spamming Left Click/R2 (I believe it's RB on Xbox?)

Personal Cluster Storage, Minecraft Ender Chest for ARK that's accessible on every map but on console, ya are limited to 50 slots and require a Tek Generator to power it so ya might need to temporarily cheat one

Dino Upgrade Potions! swap gender, reset breeding timers every 10 minutes and add wild stats, shift stats and mutations to your dinos at the cost of Kibble and Raw Prime Meat

Mx Modified Spawn Level Distribution, makes story maps level distribution the same as The Center and Ragnarok

Frost Trilobite Work, makes Trilobite into a Pet Shoulder that grants ya the Stego anti-dismount buff

Dino Color Tokens, adds in item that when force fed to a dino, allows ya to change it's colors

Map Unlocker, run it once on every map then disable afterwards

Taming Potion, adds a potion that starves your player, creatures both wild and tamed for faster taming as well as an arrow and dart that inflict more torpor and make the wild creature lose hunger. upon each hit

Neo ARK Ascended: The Reaper, my favourite mod

[loud breach]

on Single Player?

[strong kettle]

oh wait i thought i was on a server discord

[loud breach]

yes, this the official ARK ASA discord 🙃

[valid hatch]

Hi, I'm looking for people who can help me run the bosses on The Island in alpha. Having the Tek Engrams would be great, but if you can help me run another boss on a different map, I'd appreciate it.

[misty turtle]

that will be hard 88 level

[loud breach]

no, ya don't need to

it's a bug

it'll be maxed out with 88 levels when ya evolve it

at least when using an ascended vulpite that is

[misty turtle]

i mean to max level for veil will be hard since they so easy to die

[loud breach]

ya don't need to max it out 🤣

all ya need to do is spent all the current levels that it currently has

once ya do that evolve it with an ascended vulpite and the Sol or Mal will have all the remaining levels

[dire nacelle]

Anyone running Rockwell today and I can tag along? I’m trying to get my tek sleeping pod back

[faint flax]

so what is the point of combining 3 hoard chests?

[loud breach]

so for example, let's say ya leveled up your Veilwyn had 50 times, when ya evolve it, it'll have 30 levels for ya to spend

[loud breach]

apparently, higher quality loot

some people are saying it guarantees capped items on official

not sure about unofficial because of the higher limit

[faint flax]

not on official so not really seeing appeal since 3 chests gives more total items vs capped

[loud breach]

yep, that's the current argument people are fighting over

is it worth giving up 2 chests to get 1 with higher quality loot?

I guess if ya are farming Legendary OSD daily, maybe?

[faint flax]

more total loot=more stuff to use or at least grind up

[loud breach]

same, yeah

[indigo crater]

If you kill ur mutated veilwyn before doing any ascension you can transfer it to lost colony

[loud breach]

the Loot Quality is apparently based on the Item Rating

which by default, maxes out at 10 when using a 30k Drakeling on a creature

[faint flax]

i just got a 2nd malywyn saddle like cmon game i need ossodin and elephant ones not a creature don't got 😓

[robust yoke]

With the update w the Tek Spear, does this mean the Tek Claws are getting updated to actually be useful?

[loud breach]

what do ya mean by actual be useful 😢

they were so cool, man

[quasi galleon]

did asa servers got down??

[vital gulch]

what went down this time?

[haughty olive]

Lost colony was fun till getting sigils became too time consuming with bugged outpost and fighting for so few of them on a map.

[vernal garden]

whats the reasoning behind trying to keep theris at 21k hp? like whats that interaction with the veggie cake, and is it anywhere in the 21k range or what? i keep seeing it mentioned in videos so was just curious

[loud breach]

because Veggie cakes heal 2100

[sweet token]

Im on a unofficial cluster, playing on my ps5. Would it be possible to have access to my character if I start playing on Pc?

[loud breach]

and stack at 10

[last sedge]

2100 is the cap of veggie healing, and veggie heals 10% of max hp

[vernal garden]

ah i see i understand now

[loud breach]

is your adventure xp at 100%?

[sweet token]

Are you sure your veilwyn is at 100$ adventure

[stiff oasis]

I just remembered that and nope it wasn't

[loud breach]

100$ 💀

[last sedge]

u can't transfer progress over, but u can invite the pc character to your tribe

[stiff oasis]

I guess the scs mod deleted my progress

[sweet token]

😅 im at work that's my only y excuse lol

[stiff oasis]

its free real estate

[loud breach]

@sweet token out here robbing us

[sweet token]

🤣

[sweet token]

Ok thx

[loud breach]

@vernal garden it's not just Therizi, it applies to the majority of Herbivores too

[vernal garden]

so basically with herbivores for bossing strat is 21k health then rest into melee?

[loud breach]

unfortunately, no

[loud breach]

yep, the only reason ya might want more HP is for Lost Colony outposts

even then, 30k hp should be enough

[vernal garden]

ah my outpost teams atm have just been ossidons, manas, and thylas

[stiff oasis]

I changed my mind aurelix is one of the best tames ever

[loud breach]

veggie cakes makes herbivores, especially with good saddles ones very hard to kill hence why carnivores don't have one

[sweet token]

I figured as much but wanted to make sure. It's my cluster and im not particularly fond of using admin magic but whatever lol

[wild rose]

The group whistles aren't working for me, does anyone know why?

[loud breach]

yeah, what happened 😆

[loud breach]

are ya perhaps on a different group order?

[stiff oasis]

I couldn't use it but now I learned it
