this mobility is so good and the inf breath is op

[sick marlin]

I play on a private server and for some reason my 🦖 are not gaining passive or kill XP. Their exp bar seems to be stuck a 1. Also alpha kills aren't granting XP either. Has anyone ever had this issue ?

[sweet token]

I'd check with the admin and see if there were any changes in their end

[vernal garden]

alright heres my big question, whats would yall consider the optimal stat spread ?

[last sedge]

for what?

[vernal garden]

for the player itself

[sweet token]

That's map dependant really

[loud breach]

it's not infinite, it uses stamina but the stat scales so good

[last sedge]

500hp, 200st, 500wh, 20 fortitude
if more levels more wh

[sweet token]

Yeah I tend to stick with stam and melee

[loud breach]

my 27 base stamina only needed 7 levels and it's already just over 5000 stamina

[vernal garden]

how about melee/crafting? do yall mess with those lol

[stiff oasis]

I just do the spin move

[loud breach]

crafting is all or nothing

[sweet token]

Not really. The builders in my cluster use that and mind wipe topics all the time tho

[stiff oasis]

crafting is worth it

[loud breach]

ya can't be wasting few levels on it even just to increase your player inventory crafting speed a bit

[last sedge]

i don't mess with melee, and crafting i just mind wipe for bps

[loud breach]

ya either go all the way or ya don't

[vernal garden]

alright fair enough

even on lost colony should i ignore melee? i know ||boss has the one melee phase||

[loud breach]

for Melee, a few points is fine

mine is 125% at the moment and I'm not complaining

[last sedge]

i think melee of player don't affect it

[loud breach]

ya will get a weapon handed to ya during the fight

let's just say that there's a reason why it is locked behind the boss fight

[vernal garden]

alright got it, yeah i was just curious because i finally hit max level on my character

[loud breach]

ya can always mind wipe if needed

[wild rose]

no, i am in all groups

[loud breach]

just make sure your health is at least 500 to survive any fall damage

if the armor ya are going to take to the boss fight is high durability Arctic Suit, ya don't need to level up stamina that much either

[loud breach]

maybe your creatures are set to ignore group whistle?

[wild rose]

neither

[loud breach]

then try Cryo one of them then see if it works after deploying it

[wild rose]

neither

[loud breach]

😢

could be a bug caused by the most recent update

[wild rose]

😢

[loud breach]

I'll check in a minute if it's working for me but I'm on PS5, private server

[misty turtle]

hmm wonder is there page calculate stats of malwyn base on veilwyn stats

[terse cape]

Why can’t I start lost colony boss with a transmitter

[indigo crystal]

hii^^, I'm looking for a group of german players. Just pm me

[last sedge]

it's based on the vulpite u use

prim gives u 0.25 of the levels
rams gives u 0.5 of the levels
aprrentice gives u 0.75 of the levels
everything else is a 1 to 1

[misty turtle]

uh

[misty turtle]

i think i just dupe my veilwyn by accident

[last sedge]

[fair wyvern]

banned

[last sedge]

as long as u don't lose them, win is a win

[last sedge]

fun police

[misty turtle]

like i was tranfer a veil from my friend to my inventory but it not work so i press drop it out and now there another one in his inventory

[dusty portal]

How is asa compared to years ago?

[last sedge]

better

[misty turtle]

btw does malwyn need alot of stamina and does traits still stay on the veilwyn after evolved

[last sedge]

no, the abilites don't cost any stam, they remain, but they change to the malwyn name tag

[dusty portal]

In what sense?

[last sedge]

so u can't take them back to a veil
u would need to evo another mal, and babyfy it to give it the traits

[dusty portal]

Performance and bugs to?

There are apparently paid dlc's now

[last sedge]

there was also a years ago

[misty turtle]

ah ok so it stay i only plan to get 1 only anyway

[last sedge]

BTT was done by this time last year

[misty turtle]

what traits you think is good for mal

[last sedge]

vamparic is always the go to

[misty turtle]

hmm finding a vampiric veil will be hard

[molten tide]

ark is geting unplayable again ppl spamming all over map even on pvp cant build or anything

[last sedge]

ok, and?
don't like don't play official

[molten tide]

and here is one toxic player

[last sedge]

?

if u want a non spamed server, official just ain't the place
never was, never will be

[runic ore]

does someone konw what happend to official, ( iknow that at least 2 servers went down)

[last sedge]

?
official is still there

[runic ore]

i mean servers

ok its just a few

[last sedge]

they still there, i still don't get what u asking
if the server isn't in the list maybe it was sunset

[runic ore]

lost colony server i play on went down, (crashed) same with asteros on which i moved to gear up to do bob note run
both eu

so i wondered if maybe its bigger scale or something

[primal talon]

hey ive a question can u manually alter the progression of a tribe tower in single player or in config?

[dusty portal]

Traits?

What do you mean?

[last sedge]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Traits

[runic ore]

for malwyn? i dont recommend it on lost colony, because u will be hit by thralls (whips can dismount u )
it can be feared instantly by yuty

[dim lodge]

Does the zeppelin dreadnoughts leading technique still work ? Or is there something better

[misty turtle]

nah it ok i just want one

[runic ore]

then i would go traitless, are u sp?

[misty turtle]

nope unoff

[vernal garden]

what kind of stats do you want on a reaper with them not being able to have saddles?

[dusty portal]

Oh i need the dlc?

What does the bob tales dlc give actually?

[last sedge]

traits are there no matter what, DLC just let's u move them around

[dusty portal]

I know the lost colony gives a whole map and skill tree, what does the bibs tale give?

[last sedge]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/ARK:_Bob's_Tall_Tales

[dusty portal]

Ty

[misty turtle]

they already have nature reduction

[last sedge]

80% damage reduction
reapers are beats

[vernal garden]

i know that but do i want to go higher hp or higher melee is what i meant with that question

[last sedge]

u want to keep it balanced imo

[vernal garden]

with no levels he has 27k hp 333 melee

[last sedge]

35k hp and rest melee

[thorn tide]

when deploying boss army do you guys let them get cryosick? 300 seconds for 20 tames seems like a bit much of time

[loud breach]

unfortunately, no

but since ya are Single Player, use the slomo command to speed it up

[loud breach]

nope, the Dread will instantly emcumber it

[obsidian totem]

Can't connect to server. Says client is trying to confirm connection to mod service.

[loud breach]

ya have to use admincheat infiniteweight

[loud breach]

yes but if ya can install mods, the Better Traits mod adds a version of the Gene Scanner and Gene Storage that ya can use without needing to purchase Bob Tall Tales

[loud breach]

on PVP server?

[thorn tide]

yeah but it kinda dead

[elfin orbit]

its tough to progress on lost colony official, no outposts and low city drop spawns, we need a 4x boost or 5x on it even ratiod by player on spawn rates, no progression with giga desmo as pormo is killing vive hard

[thorn tide]

not many online so not really a big issue also i have pt and fabi and stuff i am ready to fight if someone come

[loud breach]

then ya don't have much options. Also, it's not just 300 seconds, ya have to wait for the torpor to drop

if ya have Lost Colony purchased, there's an item that helps

[thorn tide]

yeah but for waiting the sickness out it’s 300 seconds after every throw

[loud breach]

Medical Station I believe?

[rugged carbon]

is aquatica going to move to ascended eventually?

[loud breach]

no lol

not we are getting Atlantis next year

it'll be premium map that might be worked by Nekatus themselves

[primal talon]

how does that work?

[loud breach]

admincheat slomo X

1 is default, higher number = faster

just don't go overboard or your game might crash

also, the entire world will be sped up so be careful

I recommend that ya place down a Cryo all your tames then have a Tek Generator filled with all your element and have your character in Tek Sleeping pod

your perishables will most likely all spoil too

if ya don't have enough element, go farm some

if ya don't have the Tek Sleeping pod unlocked, then enter creative mode

[primal talon]

thank you, also anyone know why i have a login failure now

i didint run the cheat yet

[loud breach]

seems to be recent issue that started to pop

try every once in a while

[gray veldt]

Can you take old characters to LC?

[runic ore]

does rockdrake take fall dmg when not gliding?

[loud breach]

official?

[gray veldt]

ye

[runic ore]

yes but no items

[loud breach]

yes it does but ya can just lunge into an applicable surface

[vestal pasture]

have we gotten detailed maps of the caves on lost colony yet? I'm assuming those screenshot looking maps online are made using the dev kit or something right?

[loud breach]

yes but ya can only take your character and unmutated Veilwyns

nothing else

[runic ore]

ty. i am going to do bobtales on abberation and i was flying last time one on Ase singleplayer.
hoping that desmo works xd

[loud breach]

ya can however transfer stuff out of Lost Colony

[loud breach]

ya can't deploy Desmodus on Aberration

[runic ore]

ok ty good to know so rockdrake

[loud breach]

unless ya are using a mod or change a setting

[runic ore]

official

[loud breach]

then nope, ya can't

if ya can get a Maeguana

[runic ore]

hm i could asked for it, forgot that it exists xd

but to much bother if my hamzat wont break i gonna do it with drake

[loud breach]

👍

[whole marten]

Do anyone know why my Theriz can't harvest the corpse of Yeti? Harvesting Direbears, Wolfs and other stuff works. But some dinos it can't harvest unless I dismount and manually move the corpse first. My Megalosaurses harvest the Yeti's just fine.

[runic ore]

i gonna need to note down which servers i entered would be funny to check one by one xd

[loud breach]

is this on a non-dedicated server by chance?

also, Microsoft tag!

[whole marten]

Sorry. Forgot to say. Private dedicated server. And steam version on PC.

[loud breach]

that's my first time seeing a rare unicorn

steam version on PC but Microsoft tag 🤔

[whole marten]

No. It's Windows.

[loud breach]

yeah but steam has its own tag here, I'm just confused because ya have the Microsoft tag

nevertheless, how's your server ping?

[whole marten]

Honestly. I have absolutly no idea where that tag came from.

[humble walrus]

Did someone say unicorn?

I did not expect this game to have unicorns....

[whole marten]

Server and client on same LAN. So <1ms ping. And works all the time when riding Megalosaurs, and never when riding Theriz.

[lean peak]

Theres way more crazy stuff than unicorns trust me

[chrome grove]

are they now allowing mutated veils on LC?

[loud breach]

is it the vanilla Therizi or Evo?

[humble walrus]

Omg i just googled a picture of it it's sooooo cutee

[loud breach]

nope but apparently, there's a way to sneak some in

[humble walrus]

I wonder if i can tame it?

[lean peak]

Theyre super rare tho! Only 1 wild one is possible

[whole marten]

Vanilla Theriz. Still on The Island.

[lean peak]

Yes you hop on its back while sneaking from behind and itll ask for carrots once every couple seconds

Using anything other than carrots or kibble isnt really possible unless youre on very fast taming rates

[whole marten]

It's just a souped up Equus

[humble walrus]

Its still cute

I WANT IT

[loud breach]

then it's probably the Herbivore thing where most can't harvest carcasses with the Therizi being the exception but sometimes, the game can glitch

[whole marten]

Back in ASE there was a mod that gave them wings also. Then they where CUTE!

[humble walrus]

Omg stop it!!!

[loud breach]

I recommend whistling your Megalosarus to eat them instead

[humble walrus]

Someone needs to port that asap

[loud breach]

unfortunately, ya are on console so unless ya want to go to Ragnarok and deal with crashes, ya will need to hunt it down on the Islamic

not sure if it spawns on other maps

[whole marten]

It's gets to crowded in the Ice Cave to have a dino on follow. They just keep getting stuck. For now I just dismount and move the corse, then I have harvest it.

[humble walrus]

Do you think they will fix it...also is their an admin spawn pannel for custom server?

[loud breach]

get a Giga and kill everything

[loud breach]

Awesome ARK Tools comes to mind but no, I don't know think they will because they don't care about console players

if they did, they wouldn't have released this game on consoles to begin with

[humble walrus]

Yikes!

It's that bad?

[loud breach]

yes

if I could go back in time before I bought this game on PS5

[whole marten]

I'm pretty sure the Giga don't fit in the Ice Cave. Even the Rex is way to large. And killing the stuff is not the problem. Just using the cave to level the boss dinos, but need the hide for all those saddles.

[loud breach]

I would have slapped myself

[loud breach]

they do, I have taken a Carcha there

[humble walrus]

Kinda glad I only got it when it was on monthly ps plus games now..

[loud breach]

Ice Titan cave, right?

[loud breach]

I missed out by 1 month 😭

I could have saved 50$

[whole marten]

No. Ice Cave on Island.

Or maybe it's called Snow Cave. Sorry about that.

[loud breach]

oh, my bad too

[whole marten]

Same problems with Lystros also. My Theriz can't harvest them either unless I move to corpse manually first. But I don't kill that many Lystros 😛

[loud breach]

just don't bother harvesting

also, make sure that your Therizi weight is less than 50%

[whole marten]

Yea. I know. That the 50% weight only effects dropps, not harvestd stuff.

[loud breach]

apparently, any creature that has 50% or more in their inventory, won't take apex drops from creatures

[whole marten]

Yea. Pretty annoying. And also those Treasure Maps. Don't know how many I've missed. But the Mod Quality Cache is a savior. Now I see if a bag contains anything valuable.

[loud breach]

I just use Infiniteweight command, can't be bothered with adding mods that are outdated and can potentially cause issues

[winged canyon]

Jo, does anyone have an idea why my "cycle through skill" doesn't work?
Game tells me it's C + LeftCtrl. Use skill is LeftCtrl and Toggle Keybind UI is C + </>.
I can toggle the UI but when ever I want to cycle skills, it only just uses the current skill (so the first one) but doesn't cycle at all.
If I rebind Crouch from Ctrl to B, the UI properly changes to show the changes but it still doesn't let me cycle.

[loud breach]

once I get my Extraordinary kibble farm ready, I'll just mutate the weight stat to the max for any future creature using a mod

[runic ore]

is this true? 10% Day / 90% night: 14:16 - 11:07
i am near entrance "Wilderness 70C"

[loud breach]

hold up, I have a map

[lilac wasp]

Does anyone know if Ossidons are good for island ascension?

[whole marten]

I much rater mutate HP and damage then weight.

[runic ore]

nwm its getting cooler its night

[loud breach]

what's your cords?

oh ok 👍

[humble walrus]

Is there areas i should avoid on ase being on console because of crashes?

[loud breach]

they're better than Rexes that's for sure but I don't think they can fit into the Tek Cave

and even if they do, they're way too large to move inside by themselves

[loud breach]

don't play on PS4

[humble walrus]

I'm on ps5

[loud breach]

and it still crashes????

[humble walrus]

Oh idk i've not yet played it

[stiff oasis]

started my gloon army today

[humble walrus]

Wait they released the game on ps4?????

like Ascended...

[loud breach]

I thought ya were talking about ASE, my bad

[humble walrus]

Nah ASA

[loud breach]

says 👆😆

[stiff oasis]

have every dlc?

[velvet garden]

can anyone help, my game wont launch because theres an error updating the dlc. its saying 0.0 b / 0.0 b and wont do anything

[humble walrus]

Yes because people are saying they are experiancing crashes so like i wanted to know but ASA is fine on ps5? @stiff oasis and no none

[stiff oasis]

I wouldn't suggest you to go the city

[humble walrus]

Is that dlc or base game?

[stiff oasis]

lost colony dlc

[slim pendant]

Still crash in the city on PC...

[humble walrus]

I dont have any dlc

[stiff oasis]

it takes half of my fps lol

[glad skiff]

anyone in here good with optimizing? If I want stable fps I have to drop to the lowest settings and at that point its just unenjoyable
can provide specs. I got it to a good 60 kind of stable fps but the game has horrible lag spikes still

[slim pendant]

yeah and i got a 5090, thats fking wild im running like 30fps

[stiff oasis]

maybe it is because of your cpu

[slim pendant]

maybe, wish i was more technical literate xD

[loud breach]

ah I see

well, here ya go

[shrewd pine]

Have missions and alpha ossidon spawns been fixed?

[loud breach]

Blue Zone on Aberration

Ragnarok

Astraeos

Valguero maybe?

[loud breach]

nope and nope

[humble walrus]

So the island is fine?

[shrewd pine]

Thanks for the simple and quick answer lol

[loud breach]

Alpha Ossidon is just super rare, like Alpha Reaper if ya ever hunted for one

[dawn shale]

“AShooterGameMode::SaveWorld: attempt at save failed - let's crash!” Nitrado Server has shut down twice in 24 hours randomly with this message. Any suggestions?

[loud breach]

Scorched and Extinction are fine too I guess but it's mostly Single Player and regular PS5 issues

[loud breach]

do ya have Vsync turned off?

[slim pendant]

Idk what that is 😮

[vernal garden]

alright the outpost not spawning the enemies needed is actually annoying xD

it says enemies remaining 0 but is not spawning boss xD

[loud breach]

it's in your video settings in-game

I don't play on PC so I can't help much 😢

[slim pendant]

not to worry! ill check it out and try adjusting the settings, the island runs perfectly. but LC not so much xD

[loud breach]

oh yeah, Lost Colony is straight up trash

[vernal garden]

look up kephren on youtube

[naive flicker]

Who have the problems to gpu dump triggerd

[vernal garden]

he posted a guide video for sittings 4 weeks ago getting me 80-100+ with a 4070 ti

[loud breach]

@slim pendant if it's not the first time ya have entered the map, do a dino wipe and stay away from the city for now

[naive flicker]

That not working men

[hollow fossil]

Is there not gonna be a crunch at all?

[slim pendant]

I'll look it up! thank you

[naive flicker]

Hello i play 4 days and next day i get gpu dump triggerd and i whatcht 5 times vidoe on youtube from ppl it wil not work for me just ark shit als hell

[last sedge]

Ase?
Probably just switch to preaquatica beta

[full kiln]

Is there a way to fix gigantoraptor nest not spawning? It ALWAYS happens and I can never do anything about it

[proud stump]

When does lost transfers open

[loud breach]

anywhere in the next two months

[loud breach]

nope, try another map

[full kiln]

Bruh

[loud breach]

I mean, ya can just spawn one in

[night flicker]

depending on ur gpu, try switching to fsr, either UE5 or dlss fumbles the game

[whole marten]

Check that you GPU isn't overheating.

[jade isle]

Anyone know if resource caches count towards the milestones for the skill tree?

[ember mural]

why when i try to hold T to whistle in just closes the menu instantly it only does this on lost colony map

[night flicker]

not really what a dump is, basically it runs across some bad info

[loud breach]

wow, Syntac straight up gave up and unlocked Tek Engrams

[last sedge]

He said he didn't want to cluster it for other bosses

[jade isle]

He also snitched 😂

[loud breach]

goes to show ya how WC didn't thought about the map progression when even one of their sponsors gave up on playing the map the intended way

[last sedge]

Syntac isn't a sponsor for ark

Also almost all map in ark expect u to do them via a cluster

[loud breach]

he was sponsored by them on the Lost Colony release video, no?

[last sedge]

LC was never sold as a map for inexperienced players

[last sedge]

Doing 1 vid, is just that, 1 vid

[loud breach]

that I agree with but even so, they should've thought about it more

[night flicker]

ngl i dont follow any ark content creators but from the vids i saw of his, id imagine its a skill issue

[loud breach]

instead of locking everything behind the boss

[last sedge]

He not even gaining much by doing it

[loud breach]

ya literally can't unlock Tek stuff unless ya beat the boss on Lost Colony which apparently has like 5 different bugs

[last sedge]

Most of them are from doing it big ass groups and they aren't always present

And all maps work the same way, Tek is always locked behind bosses

[idle breach]

I don't understand how ppl enjoy pve servers on ASA with no primal chaos or descended just with shiny or vanilla..

[last sedge]

At most gen1 tried to be different, but that didn't go too well

[loud breach]

because console players

[idle breach]

They should never make it xplay

[last sedge]

I like ark without big number generator each 5s with killing fps explosion

[loud breach]

^

[last sedge]

Those mods boil down to the same tier grind times 15

[loud breach]

yep and the new creatures are nothing interesting either

upsized shine horn

[last sedge]

They just the blandest of reskins

[loud breach]

big a$$ carbo with trees grown on it that just spams high damage attacks

[night flicker]

desmodus, ossidon, veilwyn are useful

[loud breach]

agreed but they do and console players gets scammed

[ember mural]

guys can anyone help me? when i try to open any kind of menu like whistle menu or anything else i just closes and starts blinking my crosshair, it started right after i bought lost colony dlc

[spare nacelle]

I've heard there's some interesting issues with Lost Colony. I would try uninstalling it and seeing if that fixes the issue and if it doesn't, I got nothing for you.

[ember mural]

ok thanks

[candid river]

I guess not, was kinda hoping for Astraeos update release date

[pliant locust]

i personally dont understand how people enjoy these mods, its awlays like, abysmal demonic uber god wyvern lvl 50000000000 dealt 50x10^10 dmg, or sth of the like.
and its just skins pasted over vanilla dinos with nothing REALLY or ACTUALLY creative about it

[idle breach]

Just like I don't understand how people don't enjoy them. We are on the same boat.

[pliant locust]

yea i guess lol

[hollow fossil]

Just go in Nek’s discord and ask him. He may or may not give an answer, or he may just tell you that it’ll be in the next crunch : )

(Don’t @ mention him though that’s a no-no)

[pliant locust]

i tried unoff while playing official with primal fear and some others, evne had my own mini cluster for about a year with mods, but its not for me. i miss some of the building mods for official however, but definitetly NOT the dino ones

at least those like primal xyz
giant scorpion was cool

[faint axle]

Why is Ark not working right after upgrades especially on weekends. We as paying customers deserve better. We don't get compensated for the downtime.

[candid river]

The mods in there just go !eta

Then it says he doesn’t give ETAs

But presumably we get it before Gen 1 if have to imagine

[pliant locust]

actually kinda funny if you think about the fact thats a well paid mod map, not like something people get for free and then 0 timeline etc is a bit bold imo

[candid river]

I mean he’s shared tons of teasers already so we know it’s in the works and still coming we just have no idea when

I just don’t want there to be a big period of time between LC and Gen 1 where we literally get no new content

[hollow fossil]

He posts a lot about it on Twitter, so you can probably just follow him and turn on his notifications to see if he drops any hints!

[loud breach]

"costumers" lol

[strange patio]

Wc needs to fix their damn game I had to relog just two minutes ago and it is showing I’m not online and I don’t have anything on me when I had stuff on me when I relogged

[faint axle]

@loud breach it is a recurring problem. So yes I am pissed that it keeps happening and there is no compensation nor do problems get fixed timely. Not do tickets get answered cause they have "limits" on the number of tickets made.

[strong kettle]

whats the best way to farm metal?

[loud breach]

Dunkleosteus in the Center

10-15 minutes = 20k

[eternal hill]

Anyone know a mod that adds fire bowls/cauldron etc as a decor box skin?

[ruby berry]

are here ppl who tested LC creatures on other maps, primarily the gloon?

[gloomy garden]

I got the game ASA minus a lot of storage on my PS5.

[still pumice]

Will a higher level cerato sober up and you have to redrunk it a 2nd time? I can't remember.

[gloomy garden]

Question is should I be watching youtube tutorials on the basics or is it fairly easy just to figure out by trial and error?

[bronze onyx]

someone got a good admin panel mod?

[silk moss]

are alpha megaladons earier to find on the island

[solemn rivet]

I posted an advert in your #1110925695900713072 but it says i don't have permisison to edit my post. This needs fixing please theres some minor errors

[polar trail]

Has anyone seen Alpha Ossidon, outside of missions?
On Lost Colony

For the skull

[last sedge]

yes, kill stuff around 66 13, and a alpha ossidon will spawn sooner or later

only naturaly wild spawn alpha ossidons drop the skull

[gusty echo]

It'll be more fun if you just wing it

[half anvil]

No update for consoles not being able to connect to modded servers yet? 😬

[hollow oasis]

Your request has been escalated to a team member. You'll shortly receive an update. Thank you for your patience.

[brittle verge]

Can anyone massively help a brave adventurer out and let me know pretty please if cactus sap can be found on Lost Colony maybe a lucky drop from a mission or chest? Or does it just not exist?

[zinc burrow]

is ark down? i’ve been getting mod services error for 30 min now

[zinc burrow]

crab with 2 anky on abberation

[stiff oasis]

mr crab with ankys

[surreal ermine]

do ppl still play teamdeathmatch ??

[vagrant zinc]

Anyone else can’t craft on lost colony official

[low tinsel]

Yo

When does the valentines event drop??

[exotic hill]

Same thing on my cluster. When this crashes it then rolls back to last save. Already have had 3 players lose characters.

[last sedge]

around valentine time

[low tinsel]

Well no shit

[elfin orbit]

its tough to progress on lost colony official, no outposts and low city drop spawns, we need a 4x boost or 5x on it even ratiod by player on spawn rates, no progression with giga desmo as pormo is killing vive hard

running on fumes with enthusiasm on this map atm...

[carmine owl]

I find a bunch of missions in the city but very many of them are impossible to complete due to the bosses/mobs getting stuck in buildings outside bounds, falling off the bridges, etc

[grand plover]

How do i equip an animated skin on my player? works just fine on dinos but i cant do it for my guy

[carmine owl]

I think you need to buy some DLC thing

[grand plover]

right. i said it works fine on dinos

[slate widget]

you just move it on your chestpiece

[grand plover]

weird been doing that and doesnt work

[fading ice]

are you in the right discord?

[umbral summit]

Anyone on ragnarok feel like lifes labrynth is impossible now that you can't pop cryos?

[sudden arch]

Anyone got any nice hatchery templates that I could have?

[fading ice]

why would it be 🤔 it existed and was very possible years before cryos existed

[hardy island]

But the island 2158 server is down?

[umbral summit]

@fading ice lifes labrynth came before cryos??????

[blazing bison]

Hey sorry is anyone else having issues with really low dino spawn rates on single player island? I've got max creatures set to 5 but litterally nothing is spawning other than the very rare dodo or pt

[unreal bay]

Anybody any ideas why even after installing a custom cosmetic structure pack it isn't appearing under 'custom cosmetics'?

I've tried with and without "CosmeticWhitelistOverride=URL" in GUS.ini but it's making no difference.

Dynamic download is not disabled either. I can see lost colony and bobs tales cosmetics, just not the "ancient high-tech structures"

Is there a startup option/parameter I need to include when starting my server?

[fading ice]

ragnarok released before aberration

it was the second official modmap for ark

[fading ice]

you mean you set an actual URL, i hope?

[unreal bay]

No, tried with that in the Ini and tried without that line the ini (IE default to the official whitelist)

[fading ice]

setting the URL to literally "URL" is nonsense and will at best probably disable the cosmetic system

[unreal bay]

It is what is advised online

[fading ice]

it has to point to the address of an actual config file

[unreal bay]

Yeah I know but the default behaviour when it is not included isn't working either

[fading ice]

this is why using chatgpt for tech support is unsafe, if sometimes exciting

[unreal bay]

I wasn't using chatgpt, it was on the ark survival forums and multiple reddit posts? Best not to assume...

[fading ice]

well, it is nonsense

[unreal bay]

Okay so if you weren't going to help why are you responding?

[fading ice]

https://survivetheark.com/index.php?/forums/topic/736592-enable-custom-cosmetics-validation-on-unofficial/ should still be valid

[unreal bay]

That's to enable crc validation, I want to enable the mods, I don't care for validation

[fading ice]

maybe read it

[unreal bay]

I have...

[fading ice]

if your goal is to not whitelist, you just dont whitelist. or you set a whitelist with the stuff you want whitelisted

[unreal bay]

That's the point I am trying to make I don't have a whitelist and the default behaviour is not working

[fading ice]

tested against other custom cosmetic mods, or only one?

[silent matrix]

@heavy cedar can you please tell the dev team to add ocean platforms for the PvE players everything is pillared off

[unreal bay]

2 different ones aren't working, one premium, one non-premium

They appear in automatic structure skinner, but they wont apply

[fading ice]

these are validated for official servers, or not?

[unreal bay]

Yes they are, they're premium, it is currently being advertised on the main menu as a flash sale. Description of mod says it's approved on official.

[fading ice]

then just follow the instructions to enable validated cosmetics

[unreal bay]

Added '-DoCustomCosmeticValidation' to the server startup and it still isn't working

[scenic plinth]

when placing templates half of mine in my list are named but theres no template, and some are stuck on loading template any ideas

[elfin orbit]

idk why outposts are so dead on our lost colony map on official. like literally none

[regal pulsar]

Is everyone who is having the mod connection loop issue using LC?

i have seen people say they uninstalled Lost Colony and its fixed

[silk charm]

Is anyone else having weird bugs on Lost colony, stuff is staying in inventories/dissapearing, cant craft bps, steam forge is not working

so many weird things going on its getting close to being unplayable, I am losing tames in cryo and all kinds of weir behavior

[regal pulsar]

Do we have any official announcements from Wild Card about the Mod loop connection problem???

[keen siren]

Game better now?

[robust thunder]

anyone else not able to access the dino terminal? it kicks my sons everytime then says cant connect to mods and wont let him play

[regal pulsar]

Its the mod connection issue. i cant find a clear answer on if they are fixing it

[robust thunder]

i cant find anything either. Is that also whats stopping him from using the terminals

[regal pulsar]

not sure. this is the first time i have seen that. might be the serve he is on. what do you mean by "dino terminal"? is this official?

[robust thunder]

no matter what world/server he goes on as soon as he goes to a terminal loot drop or anything he can go to his items to transfer but as soon as he goes to the dino tab his game crashes and then throws the error for the mods

[regal pulsar]

it has to be related to the mod connection issue

its a pain, but tell him to go to game, addons, saved data, delete reserve space. it will delete his mods. when he goes to play again, it will reinstall mods.

is this PC, Xbox, Ps5?

[robust thunder]

xbox. we deleated the whole game and addons and redownloading it all. with the same outcome. the only way hes got into the game was delete lost colony but still cant use terminal

[regal pulsar]

he has 2 different issues maybe.
the mod connection issue isnt related to the terminal issue.

[robust thunder]

man that sucks i cant any answer to either issue

[stark hollow]

Why am I still crashing when I open an obelisk?!?!?! Ive had this bug for about 4-5 months now am Im still waiting for wildcard to fix this...

[grand plover]

is it possible to get a tek replicator from outposts or something in LC

bc we got a BP for tek leggings so now im curious if we can get the replicator itself without doing a boss

[regal pulsar]

are you having same issue as @robust thunder ????

[stark hollow]

yeah

but its only the obelisk's

[regal pulsar]

i wish i could help but it seems like we cant even get answers for more widespread issues

[stark hollow]

I wish Wildcard realize that this is a problem for players and fix it already

[worthy nova]

Anyone else can't join city missions while possessing a thrall?

[robust thunder]

sucks everytime we start playing together something stupid happens with these dang bugs

[elfin orbit]

Idk what's going on with outposts, none spawn on official.. we need them to force spawn around... cannot progress

City spawns are low keeping us in limbo

[sturdy heath]

Unofficial its booming . City is alive and well! Outposts at every turn. Non toxic community’s and admins that care, change your venue lol

[loud breach]

official
this is the reason

[loud breach]

they'll be added in Genesis 1 but people would just start spamming the ocean

[silent matrix]

they can drop it sooner like what they did with the incubators

[loud breach]

why would it work any definitely on other maps?

[loud breach]

it wouldn't matter, like I said, people would just spam ocean

[pliant fox]

You can build in the ocean now though. You can also pillar the ocean

[sturdy heath]

because official is gross lol.

[elfin orbit]

Feel like grief at this point, unable to progress... is in CoC

[loud breach]

find the least populated server

even better, a temporary one

[vernal garden]

Are sigils bugged or are the drop rates just terrible? I did 20 outposts today and got 5 sigils

[loud breach]

what difficulty?

[vernal garden]

10 betas 2 alphas 8 gammas and only 1 of the beta gave sigils

[loud breach]

yeah, same for me

[vernal garden]

I did not touch any of the ones in the city

[loud breach]

before the last 2 patches, my friend was getting 10-15

now, we don't get any

[sturdy heath]

Yeah we got 5-10 for the 3 or 4 we did today

Per person

[loud breach]

the city ones drop different Sigils, Crimson I believe?

@vernal garden Single Player?

[vernal garden]

Unofficial that I keep up 24/7 for me and my friends outside of some taming speed increase and some xp increase most stuff is still set to official level of stuff

[loud breach]

sane exact issue 🙃

I think they missed up something for unofficial

[vernal garden]

Yeah like I was not expecting to get enough for the boss today but to spend my whole day to only get 5 was just disappointing xD at this rate boss will take a month before I can even do it lmfao

I gotta work on my larger defense strats some more but everything else my ossidon army with a Reaper and mana have been working fantastic

[loud breach]

just cheat it in, ya already farmed more then enough

[ancient geyser]

would anyone here know what the most STABLE not the most current THE MOST STABLE amd driver is for asa? just built a new pc for ark and the constant gpu crash dumps are becoming taxing on my sanity

[fading ice]

probably has nothing to do with your GPU driver, there are no widespread or universal compatibility issues. "built a new PC" implies a few dozen different possible points of failure. have you run full stability tests on each component?

the only reasonably common issues i have seen with AMD + ASA is on chiplet RDNA3 parts, which you probably dont have if it is new

and chiplet RDNA3 is just generally slightly haunted

[vernal garden]

I will say though if all the kinks and buggyness was not here I think lost colony has been the most enjoyable ark map to me so far I like the concept and idea of the progression just wish it actually worked better xD I've heard great things about gen 1 and 2 though, but to me I'm getting all my experience on ascended did not play evolved

[fading ice]

monolithics are fine, RDNA2 is fine, RDNA4 seems fine

[ancient geyser]

its not components they were from another working rigg i upgraded a new m.2 and os install

[fading ice]

..so it is the same PC, same configuration? what actually changed to make it a new PC

[ancient geyser]

it was mygfs when she did vtubing we swapped pc tldr she doesnt use or need that much gpu now

skip the built part stress tested parts its something with ark, usually opening inventory with a RARE ocasional random crash for crashes sake

7900xtx saphire nitro+ r9 7950x3d 64gigs of ram T705 m.2 it shouldnt crash this often it never crash dumps on other games

[night flicker]

9700 xt or 7900xtx 😂

[ancient geyser]

yea lol my bad

[night flicker]

you can try turning off frame gen if you use it, that can sometimes cause issues

[ancient geyser]

ill give it a shot

[whole compass]

any recommendation i am playing on an official server of lost colony have summit reports of the map haven't receive any answer back like they did before of my request

[cloud galleon]

anyone know why servers arnt poping up on my pc asa

[loud breach]

it is possible to increase the imprint damage and resistance boost?

I want to increase it from 30 to 50%

I have access to mods and playing on my dedicated server so ini is there

[grand plover]

does the pink water bug out the reaper in LC? i have its hp below 2k, no charge light on, and im right in front of the thing but it wont ever grab me. it just keeps doing bite attacks im hoping im just missing something and not an actual bug bc this thing is lvl 140 which is by far the highest i have spawned

[loud breach]

it's random and ya might need to dismount

best option is to get a shield and tank few hits

[grand plover]

tried dismounting and remounting a few times it wont grab me

[turbid ocean]

Gloons can't damage outpost bosses this upsets me

[grand plover]

i mean it simply wont grab me. so incredibly stupid

[loud breach]

are ya in creative or god mode?

[grand plover]

no lol

[loud breach]

are the purple clouds on her?

[grand plover]

yes pink mist coming out of its body. wont do anything but bite attack

[loud breach]

just keep tanking

[grand plover]

been farming these guys trying to get ahigh lvl to spawn and i finally get a 140 and wont get me

[loud breach]

you're not her type it seams 🙃

[grand plover]

i mean its done half the durability to my ascendant hazard suit so ill try to tank more but its not looking good

[loud breach]

ya didn't bring a shield with ya?

[grand plover]

no i was hoping the game would actually work

every guide i have seen is just get its hp low and it grabs you. didnt know i had to tank for 20 min

i think its bc of the pink water. whenever it burrows under and decides to go there it cant get back on land no matter what i try

[loud breach]

rookie mistake, ya should've brought Rare Flowers and a shield

ya can't trust this game with anything

if it's a pool that ya cannot get her outside of it, just kill her

[grand plover]

i wouldnt be so frustrated if it didnt take me ages to get one even at least lvl 100 to spawn and this one is 140

[loud breach]

that's just how it is on story maps

spawn distribution sucks on those

I probably already asked ya this but I can't keep track of everyone

ya on Single Player or Dedicated?

[grand plover]

were on a nitrado server

it broke my boots so i had to dip sigh

[normal dirge]

Are unridden Malwyns able to apply malediction or only a ridden one?

[pallid hamlet]

I am having a problem. I have to find the deep sea loot crate on The Center map. I have looked at all the locations I found online and I still haven't found it. Any ides?

[loud breach]

on Single Player?

[loud breach]

any Admins online?

[pallid hamlet]

No Multi Player but that shouldn't matter.

[loud breach]

it does because Single Player has spawning issues

[pallid hamlet]

Oh ok. No worries.

[grand plover]

nah already left the cave so its likely despawned now

[loud breach]

if it's a server then it's either that people are blocking them or farming them before ya reach them

[loud breach]

oh well, at least ya got some xp from killing low level ones

[grand plover]

yeah the xp has been great. the only thing giving me lvls in the 90 range outside of resource caches

[pallid hamlet]

There are only 3 of us playing and one had found one in lava island but it doesn't appear to have spawned again since, and according to the internet they are supposed to respawn about every 45 minutes.

[strong kettle]

can pyromane do hunter cave?

[pallid hamlet]

I looked at some deep sea locations that I found online and couldn't see any there either.

[loud breach]

which hunter cave?

[strong kettle]

the island lower south cave

[loud breach]

if I recall, only a set number of deep cave drops can be active at the same time

[loud breach]

I don't remember if that one has water section but if it doesn't, then yes

[pallid hamlet]

Oh ok. I will just have to keep trying then.

[loud breach]

they're just rare and it doesn't help that ya are playing on a server where people can spawn camp them

[tawny jewel]

Have these garbage devs said anything about resolving mod error that I have to reload the game 100 times to make go away?

[loud breach]

nope

[fading beacon]

something is wrong with ark i think

[tawny jewel]

I think that at this time only Xbox is getting the mod error.

[fading beacon]

every single baby dino is level 1

[loud breach]

something is always wrong in ARK

yep, known issue, try reloggin

[tawny jewel]

Have been. Sometimes its like 100 tries.

[fading beacon]

the wild baby dinos to be exact are ALWAYS level 1 now why is that happening is it a bug? also i did it doesnt do anything

i killed a decent level theri early game to get its baby for it to be level 1 annoying waste of time

[loud breach]

yep, it was like this when Aberration was first released in ASA

[fading beacon]

so it problably has something to do with lost colony?

[loud breach]

Level 1 creature has its use

[fading beacon]

i am leveling the lvl 1 theri a theri early game is still a theri XD

[loud breach]

are ya on Single Player?

[fading beacon]

yeah why?

[loud breach]

try doing a dino wipe, yeah, I know that Single Player has spawning issues

[fading beacon]

yeah the dino spawns are INCREDIBLY low it is such a pain why is ark so buggy

[loud breach]

ya also need to be wary of a bug that makes creature despawn as soon as ya leave render distance

because this game wasn't meant to be played on console

[fading beacon]

dude. this game has been out for like 3 years by now

[sturdy heath]

10

[fading beacon]

it wasn't?

[fading beacon]

asa not ase i played ase before asa came out

[sturdy heath]

It’s the same code as ASE … polished ASE but still ASE code

[fading beacon]

wait really?! dang i really wish wildcard would actually like playtest and debug the game before releasing more unnecessary maps

[loud breach]

nope, the aging hardware isn't helping either

[sturdy heath]

Honestly things function 100x better on unofficial then they do on official or single player

[fading beacon]

wdym "aging hardware" ps5 is a decent console

[loud breach]

why do that when they know people will buy thier buggy mess?

[fading beacon]

true. i still fell into their trap T-T

[loud breach]

for ASA, consoles are like PS2 in term of hardware

• the game isn't optimized

[fading beacon]

well i cant really afford a pc rn damn

[loud breach]

it was and always meant to be a PC game

[loud breach]

me neither, PS6 is my only hope

[sturdy heath]

We play with plenty of console players on our cluster that function just fine

[fading beacon]

could my 2023 decent laptop run asa you think?

[loud breach]

I'm sure as heck not wasting a dime for ARK 2

[fading ice]

no, not really. not nearly that simple, some stuff is ported over mostly as is, mostly game-mechanic level logic

[loud breach]

specs?

[loud breach]

until they start crashing after some random patch

[fading beacon]

AMD ryzen 5 7000 series cpu and amd radeon or the newest update of graphics it is the lenovo yoga 6 laptop it runs silksong well

[sturdy heath]

Well considering we’re all in constant contact we have not run into anything major since the island, except ab launch was rough for them

[loud breach]

RAM?

[fading ice]

that is not even a gaming laptop, it most likely cant even launch the game on that iGPU

[fading beacon]

lemme check

[sturdy heath]

Gaming laptop says enough lol

Burning lap! Lol

[loud breach]

hey now! there are some decent ones

[silent lichen]

are featherlights not allowed in rockwell's arena? None of them came with us.

[loud breach]

unfortunately for ASA, decent isn't even minimum

[sturdy heath]

They definitely can

[loud breach]

I think ya might need to drop them on the floor instead of having them on your shoulder

[sturdy heath]

Nope we have gone in with them on shoulders

[silent lichen]

we did have them on the floor, just got the short end of the stick i guess

[fading ice]

assuming that has an R5 5 7530U, that has a Vega 6 iGPU, which was cutting-edge for a 400$ computer around 2018 and completely incapable of running any modern 3D game

[sturdy heath]

Were you over your tame count

[neat crown]

Where can I see the server password on ps5 for a non dedicated server?

[fading beacon]

16 gigs ddr4 ram

[fading ice]

the CPU is also a potato, it is Zen3 despite the 7xxx branding

[silent lichen]

we had 16 megalos, 2 reapers, and 2 featherlights

[loud breach]

it's the session password

[fading beacon]

chat am i cooked?

[sturdy heath]

Odd

[neat crown]

And where can I find it?

[fading ice]

your GPU is like 3% the performance needed to run ASA at recommended specs

[loud breach]

nope, that thing is not enough to even run the installer of the game

[fading beacon]

what about MINIMUM graphics

[fading ice]

16GB RAM is fine for low settings 🤔 it is everything else lol

[loud breach]

when ya create a non-dedicated session, ya can see it it from there

[sturdy heath]

We ran 16 gb of ram for over a year on Asa with no issue on pc . We recently went to 32

[fading beacon]

the xbox app i would be getting asa off of says it would run okay on my laptop tho

[fading ice]

first step is to never get a game on xbox for pc if you can get the actual pc version. second step is to never trust any software that says if you can or cant run something

[sturdy heath]

☝️

[fading ice]

you dont have a dGPU. you cant run modern 3D games on that, end of story. it is like trying to carry a sofa on a bicycle

[fading beacon]

damn. so just my ps5 then

can i go above max difficulty so i can get more dino spawning rates?

[fading ice]

the PS5 is vastly more powerful than it. it woild at least be playable

difficulty does not impact spawn rates. increasing spawns is also a good way to increase crashes on a lower-memory system

[loud breach]

for ASA, that's not enough

[fading beacon]

also another weird bug problably console only i get an INSANE amount of fiber and barely any berries i have decent harvesting rates yet they only go to fiber? idk whu

[loud breach]

doesn't matter what ya do, Single Player has spawning issues and if ya try to force increase the spawn rate, ya will just increase the frequency of crashes

[wheat nest]

For gigantoraptors and their ability to imprint on wild babies. Is there any way to realistically get one high enough level to get max taming effectiveness?

[loud breach]

use a berry harvester creature

[sturdy heath]

Ppl need to axe single player and find a good unofficial cluster . Sp is just garbage

[loud breach]

yes but depends on what game mode ya are playing

PVP or PVE?

[fading beacon]

i dont usually play on servers cause if the servers crash i cant play

[loud breach]

host your own then, your laptop is enough for one map

maybe 2 even

[sturdy heath]

Well we have been on servers for years and never had long lasting issues, that’s why I said a good cluster

[fading beacon]

would it cost money? id prefer not to spend money hosting for myself

[echo mountain]

Anyone know if a timed dino wipe on a server wipes bosses?

And if itll act as if I beat the boss or glitch it?

[loud breach]

your electricity bill will go up and your laptop battery will most likely get cooked if it wasn't already but that's about it

[loud breach]

💯

[fading beacon]

id prefer my battery to last long i will either have to find a server ig or deal with this

[fading beacon]

how long are the servers usually up?

[loud breach]

for as long as as the host wants it to

[sturdy heath]

Ours has been up 2 years . Sponsored by the community . Full cluster

[fading beacon]

pvp or pve? i am not a no life i cant do pvp

[sturdy heath]

Not mandatory . Voluntary

Pve

Stronger community that ways no toxicity

[loud breach]

hey, would ya look at that, free advertising

[sturdy heath]

I never advertise our cluster just let ppl know there’s options out there

[fading beacon]

also are raptors worth taming as a a pack?

[sturdy heath]

We have tamed them when we did a saddle up challenges and they wrecked with a small pack

[fading beacon]

i usually play the game casually so ive never beaten it i want to beat the game finally

[sturdy heath]

Do it!

[fading beacon]

so this server will it end soon or can new players still join?

[sturdy heath]

It’s a public server no password.

[fading beacon]

if it will not end what is the name i would like to join please

[sturdy heath]

Dm me I don’t openly advertise it

[fading beacon]

Dmd you

Anyone know how to fix gigantoraptor babies walking up to you and not starting the taming? Its really frustating.

[desert pebble]

Those playing on xbox switching to PC, do you change your keybinds to better help gameplay? Or do you just do it default? Cause im switching to pc and I KNOW im boutta have a hard time learning the controls and wanted to know if other people have like a specific pc loadout in their settings or just default!

[grand plover]

jesus christ finally got pregnate

reaper taming on LC is awful it is funny they havent fixed it getting stuck but they sure did patch the thrall exploit

[thick furnace]

yes 1 Bloodpack per 50 damage

[arctic hedge]

Thanks

[thick furnace]

youre welcome, also just fyi its per 50 damage done by the desmo

[lean dagger]

Guys, be careful with this guy xsnky_x. He stole from a friend of mine in small cross play. He stole all the dinos and all the resources. We trusted him and he betrayed us.

[tender cedar]

I need a tribe anyone recruiting?

[faint flax]

bruh someone naming and shaming? 😓

[topaz blade]

is it possible to reset the taming progress on an ossidon?

[plush mist]

really have to love that the Lost Colony milestone Bone Breaker has you craft 250 tranquilizer darts before taming your ossidon

like dude I do wish that was helpful, but.

[grand plover]

do traits like Fatty take base stats into consideration or does it only count the points i allocate into a tame

[elfin elm]

Soooo my Tapejara keeps teleporting back to my base when I load up my singleplayer world

No matter where I am on the map. Why is this?

I also just enabled preventhibernation and then cavased the entire map and the Gene Scanner is still not detecting a Quetzal

[faint flax]

i mean hey 250 darts means got spares for alters

[plush mist]

so many spares 😄

[hollow oasis]

Alguém aqui continua com mesmo problema para entrar no servidor?

[faint flax]

just gotta get the bio toxin and bam shock darts

[elfin elm]

Hi! Is there a way to get element from boss on lost collony?

[sullen tendon]

When is the patch going to come out that fixes the milestone cosmetics from lost colony not showing up even after being unlocked.

[jovial coral]

I didnt find, if you can fight queen with shoulder pet

[elfin elm]

Like?

[jovial coral]

it shows for me after my character dies 😄

[sullen tendon]

Are you on offical or nitrado hosted as im on a nitrado hosted server

[last sedge]

-ForceRespawnDinos

[jovial coral]

none, on Dedicated

[elfin elm]

What’s that do? Also can I do that and preventhibernation at the same time?

[last sedge]

Yup

[sullen tendon]

I tested it works on single player but can't get it to show on my server even when removing mods that it says can block it.

[last sedge]

It fills any spawn vacancy

[elfin elm]

How do I do it? I’ve tried doing stuff like that before and it didn’t work

[jovial coral]

Than i cant help, just saing, it workd for me, hopefully it will work for you too soon ❤️

[last sedge]

U just write it in launch parameters like prevent hibernation

[elfin elm]

I mean like how do I write them together? Do I separate them with a space? A comma? What are we working with here

[last sedge]

Just a space

[faint flax]

wonder if forcespawn helps with lack of spawns in SP

[last sedge]

It should

[sick socket]

Is there any way to get Gigadesmodus saddles better than prim?

[potent cobalt]

Is it only worth doing your drake at 30k xp?

[last sedge]

Kinda

It's so easy to get I don't think I have seen anyone do less

[harsh ridge]

yes

[faint flax]

yeah and if you can get high level drakelings can get nutty loot

like i got a 244 ossidon saddle bp which great but i also got like 1300 armor tek leggings so bruh the high level loot is insane 👀

[valid hatch]

Hello

Someone can help me running island bosses??

[ruby berry]

because they are broken for the most part

[faint flax]

ngl do feel like they overclocked it's abilities

if they'd kept the mesmerize and eye stuff without the invis them would still be strong

[ruby berry]

the invisibility is the reason i want to test them on other maps, mostly for caves

[desert musk]

any way to get the mining drill in the game on unoffical before genesis comes out ?

[faint flax]

mods

[ruby berry]

i you cant find mods about it probably not, ysou have to wait another few months

[faint flax]

or hope they add it early which doubtful of

[desert musk]

rumor was that it might be in lost colony expac. anyone confirm ?

[faint flax]

ain't seen it in any engrams

[ruby berry]

dont know where do you get your rumors

tekbunker yes

no drill in the game yet

[eager orbit]

did u manage to fix the nis error at start up?

[desert musk]

da google ai lol

[sturdy sparrow]

[sturdy sparrow]

thanks!

[meager stone]

Hi, I rented a server with friends and all the multipliers work except for DS instant taming, or rather, making it faster overall. Can anyone help me, please?

[amber fox]

Any one know where I can grind baryonyx on Val

[ruby berry]

dont trust that bs

[serene flint]

Not able to track stuff inside my friends non dedicated any fix?

[coarse portal]

Anyone playing official pvp have any snow owls or gachas with blue crystal?

[carmine monolith]

is there an issue with inventory glitching cause of these delays of lost colony? we just lost 8 cryopods from picking up a cryohospital cause we took 1 cryo out of it and it made a "copy"

[faint flax]

that part of lake that branches off to the right and the swamp on right side of map usually got some

[hazy jungle]

brothers and sisters!
They ripped Small Tribe away from us and thought we’d just move on.
They were wrong.
This won’t be polite. This won’t be quiet.
We must fight for what was taken — with pressure, persistence, and unstoppable unity.
No excuses. No silence. No backing down.
ARK ASE, we will force change.
Bring back Small Tribe ASE.

[loud breach]

my apologies for the late reply but if ya are able to harm your tames and get xp from it, go tame a pair of high level Carcha and start breeding them

[loud breach]

Yooooo! what's the armor on it?

[faint flax]

need to check

got a prefab that was like 212 iirc

[loud breach]

apparently, if ya were to pick up the Cryo hospitality, the crypods inside might get deleted so try picking them off on by one then pick up the structure

[loud breach]

nice 🦾

[faint flax]

means can skip working on a elephant army and go to ossidons instead

[loud breach]

known issue on non-dedicated, it's been like this since ASA was launched and will never be fixed

[faint flax]

244.6

[loud breach]

on non-dedicated, only the host can track stuff and other players

[loud breach]

basically double of official limit 😎

[faint flax]

ngl even if it was 50 i woulda been sweet

[loud breach]

they aren't going to be adding anything into Lost Colony

if ya want the Drill, there's like 3-4 mods for it

[faint flax]

whelp back to looking for interesting cosmetic skins

[loud breach]

anything but Primitive 😭👌

[faint flax]

i coulda took a prim upgraded it in station made that into bp and gone from there but oof costs

this one costs like 17k fiber 13k metal and 33k hide as is 😅

[loud breach]

yep, it straight up replaces all other Light Pets and the Mining Helmet too which was useless

but now, it's a waste of game asset

[loud breach]

ooof, that's way too much

[faint flax]

i mean the mining helmet was helpful for when went into abyss on val on 'foot' so works

[loud breach]

abyss as in the water section?

[faint flax]

mhm

[loud breach]

didn't know that the helmet worked underwater

might not be useless after all

[faint flax]

think was before they added anything there which was odd tbh tho going back did it after stuff spawned there anyway cause yeah needed thbe pearl 😅

also brb gotta do irl thing

[vast relic]

Is any tribe looking for a PvP-friendly server?
PM Me

[faint flax]

same as flashlights on weapons tbh

[pulsar pine]

Playing on Non dedicated lost colony server and there are literary no dinos spawning anywhere
tried cheats tried fixing the settings nothing worked
Anyone having this problem too?

[misty turtle]

anyone test drake hoard key combine and reroll inside new table

[faint flax]

nope went with the good ol more chests to open=more loot route

[ocean minnow]

hello guys

[loud breach]

if only the same button didn't throw your pet Shoulder

[loud breach]

too risky, man

[ocean minnow]

I have a map on The Island where I've already cleared, how do I make it so that when I create a new game on another map, I can use the same character I had on The Island? To be able to stay with the same level limit, etc

[loud breach]

you're losing on 2 chests for the chance of getting capped items

[faint flax]

yeah it being both reload and other one is annoying

[loud breach]

go to any Obelisk or use the Tek Transmitter and upload your character

ya can take up to 50 items with ya but no crypods with creatures

[ocean minnow]

Last time I did that, my game crashed and I lost everything

[loud breach]

yes that's a known issue on Single Player, especially on console

[nimble bear]

Is Lost Colony still having a memory leak issue for dedicated servers?

[loud breach]

no, that was fixed a while ago

@ocean minnow here's what it recommended, clear everything on your character including cosmetics if ya have any

[nimble bear]

Ah okay. I haven’t played in months but changed my map to LC and it crashed the server and my friend shut it down saying it was the memory leak, but I couldn’t find much info on it

[loud breach]

then create a backup from the Pause Menu

[loud breach]

it's all good now but be careful about the city

the NPC there will drop your fps

possibly even crash your game

[ocean minnow]

okay thank you, I don't intend to take any item, I want to start again from 0 but I want to keep the same character, that's all

[nimble bear]

As long as it doesn’t destroy the server, that’s fine with me. The server hosts other things too and I don’t want ark to bring down other stuff 😂

[loud breach]

it won't, go ahead

just warn console players, especially S to stay from the city or be prepared for crashes at least

[faint flax]

i mean just the city alone will do that 😓

[loud breach]

if the game crashes when ya attempt to access a Terminal or Tek Transmitter, disable Dino Download in your Single Player settings for now

[loud breach]

it's the damn NPC too, I disabled them on my dedicated server and I can actually walk there now

[silk charm]

is this still happening to you? we cant use any steam forges, cant use any bps, inventory things are just straight up dissappearing

[loud breach]

outposts still spawn too so I'm not missing much

[faint flax]

i don't got npc's really unless i attack an outpost and they spawn and defend it

[loud breach]

this is probably why aren't crashing when so much as look into the city

[faint flax]

i crash there alot as is tho on SP so rip

[loud breach]

I'm using an argument that prevents npc from spawning in the city

they only spawn on outposts

[ocean minnow]

yooo, I did it here and it worked without crashing

[loud breach]

OK now immediately pause and save game

[carmine monolith]

yep, whenever we try removing items from pretty much anything, vaults/fridges/cryo, we collect the item normally and it stays in inventory but a "copy" of it remains in there and its freaking irritating, we just throw away that "copy" from the structure so there is no issues.
Our steamforge wasnt working, we picked it up and put it back again and it works, but all other issues are infuriatingly still happening

[analog briar]

Anyone else stuck on the supreme tamer end quest/skill checkpoint thing Quetz and Titanboa doesnt work? is it Giga /Carcha only?

[loud breach]

what's the quest requirement?

[analog briar]

supreme tamer, tame 0/0 Quetz/troodon/Titanboa/Giga or Carcha

and it not advancing when taming a quetz or titanboa

[silk charm]

Dang we on smalls so cant pick up, but so many structures are screwed and since I cant smelt metal Im not trying to rebuild all my structures. I cant use my cooker at all either. Its like something with the crafting/blueprint system is completely broken

[analog briar]

forgot to press reply but yea this #ark-survival-ascended message

[elfin elm]

So I write it like:
-preventhibernation -ForceSpawnDinos
?

[carmine monolith]

im on official and these inventory issues only happen after a server crash when a rollback is involved

[last sedge]

Looks right

[winged fox]

Sever 5991 gone why .?

[silk charm]

Interesting so maybe our server is just cooked rn

[faint flax]

is there a time lime on waves for resource caches?

[last sedge]

Yeah

[lusty jackal]

why do i keep crashing on ps5 when i have barely even progressed past stone hatched in a new world

Is it mods?

[old roost]

does anyone know how to fix blur on moving and distant objects? My graphics are on epic, I disabled motion blur and I can't find the resolution scale. Which setting is responsible for this effect?

[valid forge]

Are wyverns worth it in solo

[last sedge]

Yes

[valid forge]

Can I get some tips for stealing eggs

[thorn wigeon]

Anyone having issues getting vulpite? It just goes back to 0% after I finish it and doesn't give any vulpite

[carmine monolith]

try turnin companion mode off and on, that was the issue with ours

[loud breach]

90% of the time, yes

[loud breach]

tame an Oviraptor

it can steal eggs without aggroing the Wyverns

[valid forge]

Ok

[loud breach]

do ya happen to have Bob Tales or Lost Colony?

[valid forge]

No I just play evolved and on fjordur

[thorn wigeon]

Thanks! It worked! You're a legend

[loud breach]

I see the reply, no worries.

How did ya tamed a Quetz and Titanboa?

[loud breach]

ASA room by the way

[analog briar]

.normal way knockout for quetz and titanboa by dropping eggs the counter for skillpoint quest just won't go up

[valid forge]

Mb where the ase thing

[loud breach]

I don't have the invite link

scratch what I said about the Oviraptor, I think that's an ASA only thing

[misty turtle]

yup ase oviraptor can only increase egg drop

[shut umbra]

If you do lost king with other people do you all get a gigadesmodus egg or only one person

[loud breach]

everyone gets one

the levels are random

[misty turtle]

should i bring ossidon inside lc boss fight

[loud breach]

no, bring Megaloceros 😎

[faint flax]

you got bobs tall tales?

[misty turtle]

hearing there some small space you cant get them inside

[loud breach]

they're on ASE

[faint flax]

oh rip

[loud breach]

what's with ASE players coming in droves lately?

[ember crescent]

anyone else having mesh problem? already 3 of my dinos got teleported under the mesh xD

[misty turtle]

deer only good in dragon fight

[loud breach]

I mean, it's fine and all

[faint flax]

official aquatic being shutdown soon?

[loud breach]

ya think that's the reason?

[faint flax]

one of em anyway

[loud breach]

like is there anyone even play official Aquatica?

[loud breach]

Dear is good in all fights, it makes Carcha and Gigas poop in fear

[misty turtle]

[faint flax]

only used deer once

[loud breach]

they all fear the horns

[misty turtle]

yeah sure sure

[faint flax]

had squad of theri jump dragon as rushed it on one and i almost went right into lava but didn't and hacked it to death before took off 😅

[cloud hinge]

Hi, how do inclusion and exclusion lists work for turrets in ARK ASA?

[granite latch]

anyone have a pve server

ragnarock specifically

[ocean pollen]

PvP and pve coming soon @granite latch it’s in development as is the discord if you wanna join

[loud breach]

exactly how ya think it does

ya get a creature nearby, add it to the filter list then ya can a can toggle between

[stark cliff]

anyone else wondering whats going on with mods rn on asa, its been 3 days and normally this would be fixed by now

[loud breach]

elaborate?

[stark cliff]

dang i cant send a ss

[steel abyss]

is anyone else lagging hella bad rn on official ? my managarmr jumps are delayed by like 5 seconds , its been like this for 10 minutes

[final vault]

Yeah official LC has high ping

[steel abyss]

my tribemate on the center is also lagging like crazy

[stark cliff]

it says:
connection failed
the client has failed to connect to mod services, putting the mod system into offline mode. you can use your currently downloaded mods in singleplayer
i even checked like servers and stuff and all modded servers have 0 players

[final vault]

Oh not sure then could be a few factors

[stark cliff]

i figured since it said client i would restart my game and my console but nothings working so it seems to be the game itself from what im seeing

[loud breach]

that's 100% Curse Forge issue

[stark cliff]

but no one is talking about it rn for some reason

[loud breach]

it happened a month ago then it fixed itself

All mods are handled by Curse Forge

[stark cliff]

:( dang, i had to shut off my own server from how long its taking to actually play again

[wintry ingot]

Anyone need somone i don't care if its pve or pvp

[valid hatch]

Someone know people that run bosses on the island?

[desert pebble]

Go to the mod store and download the astreos skins!

[sharp gazelle]

is there any actual map of outpost spawns yet?

[valid hatch]

Someone can help me to farm some bullets?? Please i need for the bosses and you can come with me

[steel abyss]

why can i make 2 medical stands in my replicator ( official )??

[warped kayak]

did they fix npc in city yet

[desert pebble]

Easiest way to farm bullets is to put wood in industrial forge you get 1 charcoal a second

[valid hatch]

Yes but i got raided and lost everything

You can help me, i Will gave you the bosses

[loud breach]

nope

[loud breach]

Google "Lost Colony resource map wiki gg", some people posted possible locations for them

[bright cloud]

Anyone having trouble logging in and getting a connection in progress prompt .....forcing you to uninstall/reinstall mods .....only to get the same message a hour later?

[humble walrus]

Does asa have offline single player?

[loud breach]

yes but it sucks

Single Player is riddles with bugs and annoyances

[humble walrus]

Is the map not the same or?

[slate widget]

its the same, there are just performance limitations that can't be removed.

[loud breach]

for the most part, yes but some maps like Ragnarok are slightly different

[slate widget]

there were a few bugs in ASE but most were fixed. the big ones are how caves work which isn't actually a bug.

[slate widget]

they should be the same the only difference is the hibernation making spawns weird.

[humble walrus]

Im talking ASA tho

[loud breach]

as fellow PlayStation player, if ya don't have the ability to host a dedicated server or don't want to rent one, I recommend that ya don't get the game

[slate widget]

its entirely playable to play in singleplayer. just use the backup system in the menu.

[loud breach]

until they start crashing and losing characters all the time

[humble walrus]

🥲

[slate widget]

if you don't use mods then those are unlikely.

[loud breach]

that's not what I call entirely playable

and don't play on Ragnarok as well

[humble walrus]

I would like to use mods

[slate widget]

never heard of losing characters either 🤷 transfers are safer on singleplayer then officials

[loud breach]

that map frequently crashes the game and corrupt save files even

[slate widget]

just don't use too many. consoles have limited memory. definitely use the backup system if you are using mods.

bigger maps require more. rag and astraeos being very big causes that.
its still not an always tho. some have next to no issues even on console

[humble walrus]

I'll just try and see my experiance

[tender cedar]

I've been playing for a year and im still so confused

[tranquil breach]

It never changes

[surreal sandal]

How many spinosaurus am i going to need to solo rockwell alpha

[tender cedar]

Lol damn

[tranquil breach]

Watch a video on alpha Rockwell. There are easier ways

[tranquil breach]

I've only got around 30k hours, but even as someone who is pretty experienced the game can be confusing.

[surreal sandal]

Only ?? 😭 😭

[tranquil breach]

That is between AsE and AsA over around 8-9 years.

[tender cedar]

I've only got 1000 lol

But im home with a broken foot now for 3 months so it'll go up significantly lol

[tranquil breach]

Hahahah, don't let it consume you. I'd say probably 1/3 of my time is AFK due to different reasons here and there over time, but Ark can definitely become an obsession.

[tender cedar]

Too late. It's all i do. Especially now haha

Im old though I've lived enough 🤣

[mystic granite]

Aye daze btw wipe yo shit lol

[tender cedar]

What

[mystic granite]

Dazes conquest official server it’s dead and needs to be wiped lol

[tranquil breach]

Most of my group is 30+. Several in their 40s. Even got us an 80 year old man. He's probably the kindest person in our group. Ark is for the olds.

[tender cedar]

See....no idea what you're talking about lol I have a lot to learn.

[tender cedar]

Well im 37 so that makes me feel better lol

[mystic granite]

You good brother! We were all there at one point lol

[tender cedar]

I know what the servers are and what wiping them means at least lol dunno how they work or who runs them

[mystic granite]

So daze runs conquest ( I believe ) that server you got your main ( MT6, Tea, Dadeo, Barry Sings )

[tender cedar]

How do you know what server im on....bear in mind I got discord 2 days ago lol

[mystic granite]

Are you playing official or unofficial?

[tender cedar]

Official

What's the difference

[mystic granite]

I believe unofficial allows mods and custom settings and stuff like that

[tender cedar]

Yeah I think I understood that

[mystic granite]

Official standard settings no mods etc

[mystic granite]

When you click on the server do you see “ conquest “ anywhere on it

[tender cedar]

Sorry back soon

[tranquil breach]

There are mods for official, but they have to be pre approved, and they are just cosmetic.

[mystic granite]

Gotcha I knew it was something like that lol

[tranquil breach]

I prefer official, but it definitely sucks sometimes.

[mystic granite]

Last time I played was last year when SE, Island and Rag were in the rotation. I was allies with Barry Sings

[mystic granite]

We were constantly in war with MT6 lol they actually came over to our server to try and wipe us and got dev wiped within 45 mins lmfao

[tranquil breach]

I only play PvE now. I spent years treating PvP like a job, and it ruined the game for me. I just be chilling in my mansion and blessing the server with extra stuff I don't need.

[mystic granite]

Nah I get that lol pvp was a constant job it seemed like that lol getting on for hours and hours farming shit lol

[tranquil breach]

Yeah, it is a good way to find yourself hating a game you love.

[mystic granite]

Only fun part was raiding lol but lowkey that shit was brutal too

[tranquil breach]

Our group was large. It was fun when the PvP was PvP, but most combat is just outsmarting a rat hole, or soaking turrets until someone runs out of resources. It gets old.

[potent cobalt]

Whats the best way to get a drake XP on Loct Colony - it's offical so doing a cache isn't always possible.

[loud breach]

Kill high level Ossidons

[sturdy heath]

Any beta outpost or higher is also good.

[loud breach]

otherwise, consume a broth of enlightenment then kill everything

[grand plover]

i see that Dire Bear and Elderclaw are pretty good for harvesting organic polymer. does that only work for the penguins or do they also get a lot from the blue grass in lost colony?

[loud breach]

Blue Grass is better

penguins suck

[grand plover]

whenever you are in chat you dont actually answer my question

[loud breach]

I just said, Blue Grass is better

[grand plover]

i asked if they are good at harvesting the grass as well or just the penguins and you tell me blue grass is better

[loud breach]

I thought it was self explanatory

Blue Grass is better = harvest it

[grand plover]

i know blue grass is better than penguins but that wasnt my question. i was asking if the bears are able to harvest that properly or do they only get a lot of polymer from penguins

bc Dododex technically says the sword is the best at getting the polymer. so does that work on grass too or bc i didnt know swords harvested grass

[tawdry parcel]

Hi everyone. I recently thought i would give Ark Survival Ascended a go after playing Ark Survival Evolved years ago. When i loaded into the game i noticed everything was really blurry. I figured it was due to graphics being on low settings. I put every graphic setting to Epic and everything is still very much grainy/blurry. Is there any way to fix this. Its especially bad on water and distance, but everything beyond 2 meters looks terrible. I play on PC btw. I noticed i cant share photos here, so hopefully this is a common and easily fixable issue.

[loud breach]

that sword tip is wrong and so as club

back before I clamped armors and weapons to match official, I had a 755% Club and I barley was getting any organic polymers from Penguins

[grand plover]

thats what i was concerned about. feels like dododex has a lot of inaccurate info from my experience

[loud breach]

a Dire Bear or Elderclaw on blue grass is the best

what does having PS Plus have to do?

ah, I see

then look up this channel on YouTube and watch this video "How to survive in ARK before your first tame"
