[unborn finch]

Hi all are people still having problems with the big beaver dams still not showing on xbox

[bronze fiber]

Is it possible to tame a basilisk on crystal isles?

[silent matrix]

Primal fear on crystal isles is my new way to play ark and im loving it

[steep thistle]

So ichty can spawn in rivers cuz the wiki says naw

[tribal venture]

I just started playing it on lost island it's so much fun

Everyone told me it wasn't fun but I'm having so much fun with ir

[edgy gale]

Hi everyone, how do i make coal with a fire wyvern ?

[heavy cypress]

Any PS4 singleplayers in the house?

[silent matrix]

bro ive got 3 females AND an oviraptor buff but im getting NO EGGS! its pissing me off

[versed jackal]

does a generator use gasoline if none of the connected workstations are turned on?

[slate flower]

so im curious can you breed dinos to be higher then the cap on normal dificulty in singleplayer

[molten otter]

get a male

[silent matrix]

well yes but i want to not waste fertilized eggs for kibble

[slate flower]

like if i tame a 150 rex get it to 224 then get a 224 egg can i then level that rex another 88 times

[tardy eagle]

how do i create a train chain so my rexes dont fall into lava 😁

[silent matrix]

use the mod dino storage

[tardy eagle]

im doing the overseer like in a bit

[tardy eagle]

i do, i cant spawn the dinos in the cave cuz its a boss cave

[silent matrix]

ohh

srry i dont usually do bosses so i wouldnt know that

[versed jackal]

the eggs u get get the stats from the parents from before leveling

[lethal pelican]

szukam duo do grania z polski

[hallow belfry]

Yes.

[molten otter]

males boost egg production

well specifically if the creatures are mate boosted

[cedar plaza]

What is kibble even good for?

[silent matrix]

ill give it a shot, thx

[silent matrix]

primal fear rely on the kibble for good tames

[cedar plaza]

How do I make it?

[silent matrix]

turn on tooltips and itll tell you

[slate flower]

what bosses do you think i could beat with 30 max level deinonychus

[cedar plaza]

Gamma Beta or Alpha?

[versed jackal]

lmao for some reason im able to gather honey everytime within 3 seconds instead of the usual 15 minutes

[long flicker]

level doesn't matter ,stats do

[sturdy wraith]

guys im taming a therizino and its thorpor is going down pretty quickly, do i force feed it narcotics or do i just put them in the inventory

[long flicker]

force feed it

but use narcoberries, using narcotics to keep dinos down is a waste of resources

[sturdy wraith]

i already made a few narcotics

[long flicker]

you'll need them for crafting arrows

don't waste them on keeping a dino down

[sturdy wraith]

does it make taming effectivness go down?

[long flicker]

nope, narcotics and narcoberries don't affect effectiveness

[sturdy wraith]

alr ty

[versed jackal]

Shooting knocked out dinos with tranq arrows does!!

[long flicker]

I figured they're talking about feeding, not shooting in the fucking face lol

[versed jackal]

Ik ik lol

[honest veldt]

Anyone know why there's always a blue glare that covers have my screen on gen 2

[vagrant walrus]

Jaka platforma?

[tribal briar]

It doesn't happen to someone else that the worlds are restarted, you lose everything but not your level

[sturdy wraith]

yeah that i know lol, i used to play a lot a while ago so some things i remember some i dont

[fair walrus]

always fun zaping your own dinos

[silent matrix]

Why does my ark lags or crashes wenn meganeuras or this soldiers attack me? Only in Single player

[sturdy wraith]

is there any way where i can use the therizino to actually farm wood without being encoumberd after 1 hit of a tree

[fast sphinx]

What does a mek eat ?

My mek die from starving 😂

[quartz kraken]

probably element

I'd I had to guess

[vagrant walrus]

Put element into mek

[fast sphinx]

I put 200 element

But he keep dying

[vagrant walrus]

Only 1 is enough, it needs time to heal

[fast sphinx]

Maybe he need meat

[quartz kraken]

was it the unassembled Mek? created or what

[fast sphinx]

Yes unassembled mek

He keep dying

This is weird

Why a robot need to eat

[quartz kraken]

checking wiki because I've never made one before😂

Despite lacking a food stat of any kind, Meks will seem to starve to death if left without Element for long periods of time.

needs spoiled element not dust btw

[fast sphinx]

This game is weird sometimes 😂

[quartz kraken]

just let me cryo the Mek let it never starve😂

[fast sphinx]

I saw that "You put element dust on them? While in stasis (no one in render range) they seem to use 10X the normal food rate and can die fast."

Also do you know why the astrodelphis moves on its own? The walk is disabled

[quartz kraken]

just feed them properly

[fast sphinx]

I lost 2 astrodelphis they escaped of my base

[quartz kraken]

🤷‍♂️

never tamed before

just use a leash

also this just confused me about the unassembled Mek😂
This item can be used in Boss fight to allow the Mek.png Mek to fight, but the Mek in question will only persist for that arena. It will return to the map after the fight, but due to its drag weight, may not enter any other boss arenas.

[tardy eagle]

is a 20 rex chain too long

[quartz kraken]

wiki says they be on the Lost island but never says where

[silent matrix]

can u guys fix fucking monkeys spawning in val redwood keep killing our tames

[wintry fog]

Uh, i just picked up a magmasaur egg from a nest but now that i got out of the cave its gone?

[dapper crow]

About to fight alpha aberrant Rockwell for the second time >.>

[quartz kraken]

also Perry you've lied to me I'm looking at glowtail randomly on wiki because there was a link to it from those shrooms and the take Amar seeds and citronol seeds way to many however

[austere lotus]

does anyone know why throwing an yutyrannus out of a cryopod crashes my game? I can throw rexs and other big dinos.

[quartz kraken]

dunno maybe it's just a big going around?

bug why does my phone hate me so

[wispy frigate]

“Lying” implies intentional deception

[quartz kraken]

fair enough but still I'm also surprised no other seeds needed🤔

[wispy frigate]

Egg’s spoil timer goes down while in the nest, but even when its at zero they’re still technically “in the nest”
So you can pick it up and have it immediately spoil

[long flicker]

you're lying about the definition of lying!

[timid fulcrum]

Guys u need abberation for fish baskets?

[quartz kraken]

and I also took y'all's advice about most things higher level the better 😂 there was like a lv 6 and I wanna say 28 or higher I tamed the higher😂

[wintry fog]

oh, that makes sense. Yeah it happened twice in a row with a wyvern egg and a magmasaur egg

[long flicker]

you'll want to use commands to destroy the eggs every week or so if you own the server, otherwise on official just pick up the spoiled egg and move on, eventually new ones will spawn in their place

[wintry fog]

Yeah, thanks!

Like i got a wyvern egg and when i arrived in my base i said Get rekt wyverns and then i opened my inventory and it was gone 😂

[long flicker]

oof rip

[wispy frigate]

How did you know

But seriously isn’t lying basically intentional deception

If you’re saying things that aren’t true without knowing it then you’re saying things that aren’t true, but you aren’t lying, right?

[long flicker]

eh, people say it as a joke

[wintry fog]

Hey my maewing is named perry lol

[wispy frigate]

my influence is spreading

[long dome]

How do I tame a leedsichthys

[quartz kraken]

what command? I probably know it just can't think properly ATM
I told someone no on something and can't get it out my head😂

[long flicker]

I can't remember :P

[quartz kraken]

step 1 trap it
step 2 farm it for fish meat
step 3 remember it's not tamable😂

[silent matrix]

I just bought the entire expansion pack, and without downloading anything 100gb of my space got taken up?

[long dome]

Wht do I do with it

[wispy frigate]

cheat destroyall DroppedItemGeneric_FertilizedEgg_RockDrake_NoPhysics_C|cheat destroyall DroppedItemGeneric_FertilizedEgg_NoPhysicsWyvern_C|cheat destroyall DroppedItemGeneric_FertilizedEgg_NoPhysicsDeinonychus_C|cheat destroyAll DroppedItemGeneric_FertilizedEgg_NoPhysicsCherufe_C|

[quartz kraken]

that's a mouthful😂

[wispy frigate]

Not really

You want a real mouthful?

[quartz kraken]

step 2 farm it for fish
go to it and harvest press Y if Xbox idk PC button

[quartz kraken]

no thanks this'll do😂

[wispy frigate]

E replaces y/triangle

[quartz kraken]

close enough

[silent matrix]

I just bought the entire expansion pack, and without downloading anything 100gb of my space got taken up?

[quartz kraken]

idk

[molten otter]

because they are dolphins and insanely curious they dont tend to stay in one place for long

[silent matrix]

[olive veldt]

What event can I use in ark rn?

[pine orchid]

Hi I have make a paracetharium platform for my parace and I would make my base on the platform and put all my dino in the house someone have an ideas for how I need to proceed for my dinos ?

[unique topaz]

Anything that a flying tame can carry (you can find that information on wiki/Dododex) you can move onto there

[pine orchid]

Ok I need a new dino because my ptera carry only my dodo

[fast sphinx]

Just make stairs

To the platform

[subtle viper]

hi. me (700 hours) and my friend (200 hours) want to play on an official or unofficial server. the problem is, it would be our "first time" on that. we are asking for help. that means we want to play with at least 1 guy, who knows how to play on un/official and wants to take us by hand. speaking german would be nice but english is ok too. maybe someone with good experience wants to play with us. 🙂

[fallow quest]

Play as you go @subtle viper. Best fun to learn the map. Explore the unknown. And prepare to die often.

[subtle viper]

i mean i played all maps and have a little bit more than the standard stuff experience and my friend is kinda new to the game.

[fallow quest]

Well then Master Jedi. Train your Padawan Learner the Ways of the Ark Force. 🙂

and punch him in face when makes mistakes. bhahaaha

[blissful estuary]

in a cluster server do the query ports and the ports need to be the same? so 27015 and 7777 in every file or do i need to do variations example:270156

[lusty tusk]

Can Giganotausorus and Alpha rex naturally fight ?

[leaden pike]

Like wild and aggro to each other?

[dapper crow]

finally got the alpha ascension on aberration

[halcyon crypt]

ive seen gigas in the wild coexist with allos

so i don't believe they will fight

[hidden urchin]

isnt there a way to see what dinos are on the map?

[halcyon crypt]

unless one accidentally bites the other

[dapper crow]

s+ tek transmitter

[halcyon crypt]

s+ tek transmitter can see all dinos on the map

[hidden urchin]

s+ fu-

[lusty tusk]

Yeah

Because there was a gigano and alpha rex near my house but Its now impossible to find the gigano

So i thought they fought together

[slate widget]

@silent matrix English only.

[half schooner]

Anyone know how slow stegos are

[rain hawk]

slower than a mammoth

[half schooner]

Thanks

[lusty tusk]

Is it possible to unactivate the structures number limit on quetzal platform ?

[winter otter]

I believe there is a setting for that

[lusty tusk]

U know what is it ?

[leaden pike]

@lusty tusk are you on single player or unofficial

[astral vapor]

What stats should I focus on leveling on astrodelphis?

[lyric narwhal]

Hey anyone else have an issue with ark running at 10% gpu utilization?

[lusty tusk]

Im on unofficial server

[quartz wigeon]

Hey guys a friend I logged into my gen 2 server the other day cryoed some stuff logged out and i log back n 3 days later and 320 days passed on gen 2 and all my dinos styders decayed this happen on any other gen 2 servers?

[lyric narwhal]

anyone? I have a 3070 running ark at 30fps with an ini lol

[stone depot]

Do haz helmets prevent the damage in spider cave

[hazy hollow]

Can someone explain the state of the game? Are we going to see more DLC's or is #ark-2 the top priority?

[quartz kraken]

an argy can carry stuffs

[quartz kraken]

there's another DLC incoming with Dinos fj something map besides that idk

[subtle kraken]

How many missions buff can be active at same time on gen 2??

[sage sinew]

One of each mission type…

[static fjord]

Theres going to be no more paid dlcs/story dlcs but we're going to keep getting updates and free dlc/mod maps.

[subtle kraken]

Okay thanks

[lyric narwhal]

i would love to see a slight optimization update instead of a new fucking dlc

clearly wildcard is so lazy they cant even optimize the game properly so a £500 gpu is getting 30fps lmfao

[static fjord]

they cant optimize ark 1 without breaking the entire game which is why their starting from scratch in ark 2.

[lyric narwhal]

They cant do slight tweaks to gpu utilization?

[hazy hollow]

Is there an ETA for ark 2?

[lyric narwhal]

thats only half true

they just dont want to go through the effort of optimizing ark 1 at all because ark 2 is going to make more money BECAUSE people are hoping it will be more optimized

[static fjord]

literally ark 1 is built off of crappy code so whatever they do to try and fix it is going to force them to rebuild from square 1

[lyric narwhal]

ark 1 is built off of ue4 idfk how wildcard messed up the game that badly

[quartz kraken]

I mean sure they could optimize something but that's not to stay something else won't be worse

[static fjord]

isnt it their first project?

[lyric narwhal]

Im literally getting more gpu utilization on geometry dash

and thats a 2d cube jump game

wildcard cant do better than a £2 mobile game i guess

[halcyon crypt]

ok im taking a break from ark

[quartz kraken]

what happened😂

[halcyon crypt]

i just spent 4 hours breeding crystal wyverns for no mutation changes

[static fjord]

so it'd be more simple and require less from your device, no?

[lyric narwhal]

wtf?

I want fps not fucking less power consumption

im getting 30fps with a hard ini

[static fjord]

okay but youre comparing a 2d cube game with a giant game with actual complexity

[glass hearth]

Is there an lfg on here

[static fjord]

its obvious one is going to break your game and the other is going to run more smoothly.

[hazy hollow]

Turn down your settings if your that cheesed

[quartz kraken]

pffft my one base on the island has your frames beat😂
I also dunno what ini is😂

[lyric narwhal]

hard ini is the lowest you can go

no tree leaves no bushes ass textures

[lusty tusk]

Will there be human tribes in ark 2 ?

[static fjord]

idk whats going on with your pc but even with average xbox one settings i get pretty solid fps.

[quartz kraken]

my base on Xbox was getting like 2-3 frames eventually😂

[lyric narwhal]

well tbf we do have around 100 dinos all uncryoed

[lyric narwhal]

I dont think increased gpu utilization would break a game

[static fjord]

i have a big base on gen 2 and with xbox im still getting better fps than 30 most of the time.

[lyric narwhal]

whats a big base in your eyes

[quartz kraken]

it could also be due to the fact I put the egg laying to shortest during Easter event😂 it's never been the same since
I'd do it multiple times for a minute or so at a time

[wary widget]

is there a specific chaneel for mods or is mod chat not allowed?

[static fjord]

i dont really know how to describe what i'd consider a big base.

basically its not a small thatch hut but nor is it a megabase.

[lyric narwhal]

if ur getting 30fps on a "big base" on xbox then i dont think its that big of a base

[lusty tusk]

Please

[static fjord]

if youre getting 30 fps with hard ini then i dont think you have that good of a pc.

[quartz kraken]

I hope something interesting

[slate widget]

there is no specific mod chat, but mods can be discussed depending on what about 🤷
#bobs-with-probs for help
#unofficial-setup-help for server/SP setup

[lyric narwhal]

yeah an rtx 3070 isnt that good is it

i literally have 10% gpu utilization

[static fjord]

i dont know, i dont use pc.

[lyric narwhal]

thats my issue here

[wary widget]

thank you

[slate widget]

if you just are talking about general mod stuff :P then here or #general

[static fjord]

but like, youre complaining that the game needs better optimization when you just claimed to have 100 dinos uncryoed.

[lyric narwhal]

I just claimed that I have 10% gpu utilization which is the problem

[static fjord]

cool.

[hazy hollow]

Then play with your GPU settings?

[lyric narwhal]

???

[lyric narwhal]

you dont get what im saying do you

Im saying my game would be running more than fine if ark was actually using my gpu for something more than displaying an image

[cedar plaza]

Are they any tips for smoother gameplay on Ps? I have 5 fps when I walk around with my Bloodstalker.

[terse herald]

hello, does anyone know who belongs to the June tribe on server 921 on gen 2?

[static fjord]

turn off spider vision, that brought my fps up a lot.

[lusty tusk]

Ps4 Ark sucks sorry man

[hazy hollow]

Not sure in Nvidia has a app but go in there and tinker with it. Cause I can do that with my AMD

[lusty tusk]

U cant do more

[cedar plaza]

Ik but I paid for it so I wanna do something with it

[lyric narwhal]

I have lol, theres literally no reason why ark should be running like this

[slate widget]

not sure, I think your GPU's settings are messed up mine uses a lot and I get over 100FPS 🤷

[cedar plaza]

Okay thanks

[hazy hollow]

Then you have a bottle neck in your PC.

[lyric narwhal]

ill send you a pic of my base

[hazy hollow]

cause mine runs just fine

[lusty tusk]

Maybe check your ps4 ventilation if its dirty it can slow the ps

[slate widget]

I'm saying that its your PC's issue not arks :P mine uses my GPU properly.

[lyric narwhal]

with what settings

[slate widget]

no idea, I didn't change any 🤷

[lyric narwhal]

graphics settings

[hazy hollow]

do you run mods

and if so how many

[lyric narwhal]

this is TKI

[hazy hollow]

....

[lyric narwhal]

it only has QoL pvp mods

[primal karma]

can someone carry me in gen2 missons and the gamma boss on official server ?

[quartz kraken]

even if Ark was perfect people would find stuff to complain about you can't always get things as perfect as you'd like trust me I want no lag in sp as much as anyone would especially on the lost island

[lyric narwhal]

i find it funny how i havent seen a single thing where wildcard has said the actual reason they havent optimized anything

[static fjord]

i told you why though.

[lyric narwhal]

you guys say its because the code was really bad at the start but why were the people spamming "FIX YOUR GAME WILDCARD" on gen 2 reveal stream chat getting completely ignored

if that was the actual reason surely wildcard would actually say what the problem is?

[static fjord]

?

[lyric narwhal]

everyone was spamming the chat in the genesis 2 reveal livestream for literally half the stream

[quartz kraken]

anyways I finally found something to watch and it's even a Dino movie😂 I've been looking this entire time for something to watch

[static fjord]

people already know the reason, but people like you feel the reason to deny it and contine. no point in telling everyone the same thing they know if its going to do nothing.

[lyric narwhal]

I'm not denying it, I'm just saying that its a bit strange wildcard hasnt actually confirmed thats the reason.

if it was then surely it wouldnt be that hard to wildcard to confirm it right?

[static fjord]

wildcard are known for not really saying anything so its not that strange

[boreal grail]

Man, i love being globally banned for no reason at all.... Legit, wiped a hacker base... his hacker ally tribe on classic comes and defends them.. they then aim bot us down... so we leave.. they then come and mesh raid our base and aimbot us.. wipe us... we log off.. 2 days later im Globally banned from officials.. and wildcard and battleeye cant respond for shit... like.. LOL, how many pocket devs do these chinese hacking tribes have, do i just have to wait for them to take their time to respond because my tribe has shit to do for the next arkpoc wipe.. like..

[brittle sorrel]

How do you paint custom images on ark boss flags?

[lyric narwhal]

wildcard just ghosts the community

dont be surprised lol

they never change

and they dont change because the community constantly defends them

And the community constantly gives them money for new buggy dlc

[primal karma]

can someone carry me in gen2 missons and the gamma boss on official server ?

[static fjord]

theyre literally only posting out free dlcs from now on, and theyre still going to be updating the game with events.

[lyric narwhal]

took them 6 years to stop releasing paid dlc

Seriously if the games broken why release so much dlc for it

[static fjord]

and you had 6 years to stop buying those dlcs and quit the game

[lyric narwhal]

i feel like im arguing with nft lovers

no matter how much you tell them its stupid they never listen and say "just dont buy them"

I enjoy playing the game which is why I continue, but its really frustrating at times to know how ignorant the devs are

you know how much shit I've lost due to ark being dumb

[static fjord]

ive lost much stuff as you, or the next guy.

[lyric narwhal]

like what

[static fjord]

but that doesnt mean wildcard is 100% always at fault.

[lyric narwhal]

dude why are you still defending them

how many facts do I have to bring up

[static fjord]

your most recent fact was that they started to stop releasing dlcs in 6 years which just proves that they are started to do something good and not be as money hungry.

[lyric narwhal]

what are they doing thats good

working on a new game that can have more dlc

wildcard isnt a friendly dev team that works on community feedback

[static fjord]

.

[lyric narwhal]

???

I literally just proved that point wrong

[static fjord]

when???

[lyric narwhal]

.

[static fjord]

that isnt invalidating my point though?

[lyric narwhal]

no?

the free dlc maps are community made

[static fjord]

yes?

my point is that theyre free, and wildcard is still updating the game.

even putting new dinos into those free dlcs.

[quartz kraken]

just enough wildcard has plenty of issues going on in ark and they're not gonna fix them all but that doesn't mean it can be all their fault games get bugs sure not all will be fixed even a different companies game won't be perfectly fixed if you don't like how ark is just leave i hate how ark does some things but I haven't quit yet even though it killed 2 of my loved sarcos exiting a cave😑

[marble dagger]

Ark is the best worst game...

[lyric narwhal]

i dont care about how buggy ark is

I just dont get why theres such simple problems with no fix

If I lower settings I expect higher framerates

not lower gpu usage and the same fps

[static fjord]

correct me if im wrong but ue4 doesnt tell you where the problem is so you could go through thousands of code just to find a missinf letter.

[lyric narwhal]

bruh are you being fr now

you resort to "wildcard cant find it"

[quartz kraken]

and if I have sarcos following me out a cave I don't expect them to fall out of the map and die

[lyric narwhal]

yeah

[quartz kraken]

it happens though I've learned to accept dino deaths a little more after that

[static fjord]

im not resorting to "wildcard cant find it", im saying it isnt as simple as clicking a red button with a sticker saying fix on it.

[lyric narwhal]

yeah? I know that

but how can other game devs fix issues and wildcard cant

[static fjord]

idk, thats for the other game devs to say.

[lyric narwhal]

how are they able to find issues but wildcard cant

[quartz kraken]

not every company is the same

[static fjord]

^

[lyric narwhal]

what does that change

thats not an excuse for wildcard being unable to fix SIMPLE bugs

[quartz kraken]

Bethesda and it's Skyrim

[static fjord]

Ah yes simple bugs, its not as easy asma single click.

you could go through thousands of code as i said, especially with the faulty coding that will probably mess something else up in the process.

[marble dagger]

Yeah other companies routinely do it....

[nocturne pasture]

I’m coming back to the game after a year and a half or about a few weeks after genis part 1 came out. I’m just wondering what’s new and what I need to know cause imma play on official PS im on Xbox

[lyric narwhal]

games bullshit gen 2 ruined pvp meta ect ect

[static fjord]

i dont think most of the big gaming staples have faulty coding.

[marble dagger]

Get a Stryder by completing missions and you win the resource game. Seriously don't even try old school farming.

[lyric narwhal]

are you 12

Im genuinely asking, are you 12 because you dont seem to know anything

[static fjord]

are you? you seem to believe coding is as easy as clicking a few buttons here or there.

[nocturne pasture]

I’ll look up about the stryder cause I don’t remember that many of the Dino names anymore thanks I appreciate it

[halcyon crypt]

what the fuck is happening

[marble dagger]

He never said that.

[lyric narwhal]

no you are completely misunderstanding what I'm saying which is why I think you are 12

you have such a biased opinion its actually funny

[quartz kraken]

completely ignored my Bethesda comment
you've commented on everything else but that

[cedar plaza]

Is there a way to fix the bugged sounds in ark or is it in the game?

[meager shale]

Someone that wants to play ark

[static fjord]

how am i misunderstanding though? you claimed that many of these bugs are simple yet still believe its easy to fix them.

[lyric narwhal]

The bugs are simple and wouldnt take months to fix

[quartz kraken]

I've had some glitchy audio doesn't always play wise

[marble dagger]

🤷‍♂️ only sound bug I know about is the chem bench Screams sometimes.

[static fjord]

as i said the faulty coding would probably break something else in the process.

[halcyon crypt]

that sounds cursed af

[static fjord]

its not really that easy of a process to go through tons of code to find a missing letter, fix it and then end up making something else brolen.

[marble dagger]

I die a little everytime...

[lyric narwhal]

C++ has an option to find keywords in code I'm pretty sure

html has it

im sure many other coding languages have it

[cedar plaza]

Im also talking about that the sound is sometimes only on the right side and sometimes on the left

[static fjord]

i mean that doesnt change the fact that more bugs will come with more bugs you fix.

[lyric narwhal]

god this is fucking painful

[long dome]

Can a creature attack my offline sleeping body

[static fjord]

yes

[lyric narwhal]

Dude you dont realise how much of a wildcard stan you are being

[cedar plaza]

The game is just a meme lmao

[marble dagger]

Well why fix anything then...

[lyric narwhal]

ignoring every FACT and defending your favourite company wildcard

[static fjord]

you can call me whatever you want whether thats a wildcard stan or an nft lover, it doesnt really change any of my points.

[lyric narwhal]

90% of your points are literally invalid lol

"fixing bugs makes more bugs"

[boreal grail]

Okay, then explain why I got battle eye banned for attacking an official aim botter tribe @static fjord

[lyric narwhal]

Anyone who says that literally has no knowledge of what code is

[boreal grail]

and that I have no way of contacting them

Except a "Ticket" system

[static fjord]

youve literally yet to have a counter argument against the fact that the game has had faulty coding since day 1 and isnt as easy to fix as 2 clicks.

[lyric narwhal]

Dude

im not talking about dino clipping and shitty physics

[static fjord]

you see to have no knowledge of anything coding related and love to go to calling names.

[lyric narwhal]

im talking about a stupid resource utilization method which was implemented by wildcard which is causing stupid ass framerates

[lyric narwhal]

mentioning this for the 3rd time

[static fjord]

didnt the other people say its probably your pc and not ark itself?

[lyric narwhal]

holy shit ur dumb

i literally said I have an rtx 3070

[static fjord]

seems like everyone else is getting good gpu usage.

[marble dagger]

nope

[boreal grail]

Not me

[lyric narwhal]

a discord mod who is on wildcards side said they got good gpu utilization

then they dipped out the conversation...

[boreal grail]

I use a 3090TI and I legit get choppy frames when loading in bases

[static fjord]

so?

[boreal grail]

or even caves

and sometimes ill just drop from 900 FPS to 3

for no reason looking left or right

[static fjord]

why does it matter that theyre a discord mod, or that theyre on wildcards side.

[lyric narwhal]

dude dont bother mentioning your specs xbox players dont understand what a pc is

[halcyon crypt]

i got 57% on gpu usage and a average of 60 frames

[static fjord]

another completely normal guy said they got normal gpu.

[halcyon crypt]

is that good

[lyric narwhal]

on what graphics settings

[boreal grail]

@static fjord Your an Xbox?

[lyric narwhal]

yes

[static fjord]

see what i mean when you go to calling names?

[boreal grail]

That explains it, you have a CAPP frame and GPU usage on xbox

[halcyon crypt]

everything is low besides anti aliasing

[boreal grail]

you cant overclock it.. you legit are limited in the graphics you can push...

[halcyon crypt]

which is on epic

the game still looks pretty nice

[lyric narwhal]

whats your ground clutter settings

[boreal grail]

All consoles have that... you can have an amazing looking game.. but a Console will ALWAYS have a limit factor on your GPU and usage.. and will throttle it

[lyric narwhal]

gpu utilization goes up as the graphics settings go up

[halcyon crypt]

both density and distance are at lowest

[lyric narwhal]

console is low-med settings

[boreal grail]

I play on full EPIC settings on my PC

[lyric narwhal]

I play with a hard ini

[boreal grail]

with NO ini

[lyric narwhal]

which drive the gpu usage well down to 10%

[boreal grail]

I play with no INI, just to prove points

[static fjord]

idk whats going on with your pc but seems like people here, and people i know have perfectly normal gpu utilisation

[wary widget]

is anybody else having the problem sometimes when they load in the textures are blurry

[boreal grail]

^ yep

[lyric narwhal]

you havent even asked the people you know about gpu utilisation dont lie

[boreal grail]

On unofficials atm since thats all i can play..

you gotta just relog @wary widget

[static fjord]

why would i need to? i'd hear them complaining

[wary widget]

ok

[lyric narwhal]

or your friends are probably oblivious to everything wrong that wildcard does just like yourself

for the 4th time, the issue is the lower the graphics settings the lower the resource utilization

[static fjord]

i actually did say that wildcard is at fault, but not always.

[boreal grail]

Hey Wivern

[lyric narwhal]

it is a literal known fact that this is how ark resource utilization works

[static fjord]

for the 10853th time, a lot of other people have normal gpu utilixation.

[boreal grail]

Turn your graphics on your console to EPIC

highest it can go, turn on everything MAX

give us your FPS

[lyric narwhal]

wiv, its literally a known fact

[boreal grail]

or are you limited

[lyric narwhal]

its literally coded into the game

[static fjord]

yet other people have normal gpu? whys that? is it because of your pc or the game. i wonder.

[lyric narwhal]

holy shit im losing my mind

[boreal grail]

my brain hurts trying to understand Wiverns logic..

[lyric narwhal]

same

[boreal grail]

I gave him a challenge

Go to his Xbox console, increase all his settings to MAX and Epic

then.. give us his utilization, and see if its the same or his Xbox will explode, and also...

[hard nebula]

when u kill the titans does it appear on ur implant

[lyric narwhal]

you cant change xbox graphics

[static fjord]

really wouldnt do anything, i gave you an answer to the original question and your previous ones yet always have something to complain about.

[halcyon crypt]

only for king titan

[hard nebula]

ok thanks

[boreal grail]

I should @hard nebula

[static fjord]

you can though, that just proves you have no knowledge on the topic.

[halcyon crypt]

since king titan counts as a overseer, and killing him results in a ascension

[lyric narwhal]

holy shit im literally going to kill myself

[boreal grail]

@static fjord did you do what I said?

[static fjord]

no, read my point.

[boreal grail]

Then your argument is null and void

[quartz kraken]

just enough already please

[hollow cloak]

i need help who can teach me how to play

[lyric narwhal]

wheres proof it wouldnt do anything

[pseudo meteor]

Cash that cheque!

[boreal grail]

if you are not willing to show facts to support your claim against people who already have facts supporting theirs

[static fjord]

yes, because the gpu utilization of many of the people here arent facts but rather a figment of my imagination.

[boreal grail]

So I dub @lyric narwhal the winner of the argument because @static fjord Refuses to provide evidence and facts of said comments..

[pseudo meteor]

I see no fax here

[lyric narwhal]

its like conspiracy theorists, everything they say has absolutely no valid proof

[halcyon crypt]

spongebob conspiracy theorists are overflowing with evidence

[pseudo meteor]

What was Yiz facts

[lyric narwhal]

that lower gpu utilization for lower graphics settings is coded into the game

which is why theres not much fps difference between epic settings and low settings on high end pc's

[pseudo meteor]

Interesting position. Where is empirical data to prove this claim

[static fjord]

and other people here have claimed that their gpu utilization for ark has been perfectly normal and not 10% as these people have claimed.

[lyric narwhal]

statistical proof from my own computer and someone elses

[pseudo meteor]

Lol

So ur opinion

[lyric narwhal]

all they said was "normal" did they actually bother checking what it actually was?

[halcyon crypt]

the default for xbox settings is all epic graphical settings

no clue how to check gpu usage on console

[static fjord]

yes.

[halcyon crypt]

tho

[lyric narwhal]

not true

[lyric narwhal]

"a lot" while using epic settings

[pseudo meteor]

Pot callin kettl3s the both yall lol

[static fjord]

thats still more than your 10%.

[halcyon crypt]

they aren't? when i first bought ark for xbox one, the settings were automatically set to all epic

[static fjord]

dont trust him for xbox, he has no knowledge on it.

[lyric narwhal]

I literally gamed on a fucking ps4 for 3 years

[static fjord]

seems to believe you cant change any settings on xbox.

[lyric narwhal]

and played ark on it

not any settings

[static fjord]

okay cool but on both sides of this argument no one has yet to provide any good evidence of whether the gpu utilization problem is from your pc or ark because both of us know that people have either had crap gpu usage or perfect gpu usage. so im just going to go.

[quartz kraken]

I play Xbox on default and I don't mind the settings used then again I wouldn't really care enough to change anything either way

[lyric narwhal]

we have good evidence lmfao

[pseudo meteor]

U have yet to show any

[lyric narwhal]

I have shown?

Want picture proof?

video proof?

[quartz kraken]

isn't Xbox grapigonna be different then Xbox graphics I feel like there's gonna be some difference

[static fjord]

point is no one has had ground breaking evidence that discards the other sides evidence, both of us have shown that people had 10% gpu and a lot of gpu usage.

[lyric narwhal]

a lot of gpu usage because they are on fucking epic settings

for the 6th time, its lower gpu usage on lower graphics

[static fjord]

the other guy with 57% and low settings on almost everything?

[lyric narwhal]

with an ini?

and what gpu

[static fjord]

no one has proved whos side is wrong and whos side is right until they bring out the code and find that thing you were speaking about where its built into the code.

[lyric narwhal]

if you have a good gpu it uses way less on low settings because it requires less to run at the targeted fps

[quartz kraken]

let's just agree nothing's perfect shall we

[pseudo meteor]

You guys know that lot of things can use gpu and throw off these supposed test results ya

Discord uses gpu. Windows can.
A rat you got from whomever running a miner would certainly be... ;)

[lyric narwhal]

proof is on my old 1050ti I got 100% gpu utilization at console settings which is low-med with ssao and

[pseudo meteor]

Well he might see thru walls but he can't shoot thru. Or shouldn't be able to.

[lyric narwhal]

ok

[pseudo meteor]

Or mebbe he just tek sniper'd ya

[pseudo meteor]

50 series is bargain basket junk not meant for real gaming. Just casual.

[lyric narwhal]

yeah but that was my proof of gpu utilization and trying to reach a set fps target and lowering usage based on the gpu and the graphics settings

[queen obsidian]

Real gamers play Ark on an old school Gameboy.

[pseudo meteor]

I have 1070 normy and it handles ark on epic all turned on and doesn't strain the gpu much. I'm also running ark devkit which eats lots of cpu/gpu all the time in use or not. And various other things.

[lyric narwhal]

I play ark on a lemon

[lyric narwhal]

30fps?

or low clutter density

[pseudo meteor]

Max

[lyric narwhal]

so 30fps

[pseudo meteor]

No it'd look choppy

[lyric narwhal]

theres absolutely no way a 1070 can get above 40fps on all epic

[pseudo meteor]

You just got some rat miner prob

[lyric narwhal]

tf? no im not comparing it to my pc

30-40fps max

thats what a 1070 can do

[pseudo meteor]

Oh u got some test machine?

[lyric narwhal]

no but i have plenty of youtube benchmark videos

my 1050ti got 20-30fps on epic

[pseudo meteor]

Ya ok 👌

[lyric narwhal]

mb wrong numbers

[primal karma]

can someone carry me in gen2 missons and the gamma boss on official server ? pls dm me

[lyric narwhal]

3rd time i've seen this msg

[lyric narwhal]

#pvp-discussion

[primal karma]

pvp#

[lyric narwhal]

why you need gen 2 on a pvp server?

just do alpha rockwell, center and rag and ur set

[primal karma]

idk man im new

[lyric narwhal]

join a tribe on mts then and learn from them

its hard but with some luck you can find a tribe

[halcyon crypt]

gen2 missions are stupid af

[lyric narwhal]

yea

[halcyon crypt]

but rockwell prime itself isn't that difficult

[silent matrix]

I adore the Gen 2 missions, they feel like actual missions...rather than the tiring copy paste of Gen 1 missions.

[halcyon crypt]

due to the fact shadowmanes are an option for boss killers

[lyric narwhal]

they are still boring as fuck

I dont wanna spend 90% of my time doing gen 2 missions when I can raid and pvp at rag blue ob

[halcyon crypt]

me and my friends had a fun time for like an hour or two competing on the maewing race mission

[silent matrix]

Not to me, especially the whole Starfox 64 like mission and Survive the ARK reminding me of Killing Floor in a way.

[primal karma]

ok

[silent matrix]

They're cool, It's not as boring as Gen 1. Gen 1 is the same mission copy pasted across 5 biomes...plus the loot is horrid

[lyric narwhal]

gen 1 is easier to do

[halcyon crypt]

doing star dolphin on xbox felt like actual HELL

[lyric narwhal]

you get pumps from doedi race

[timber summit]

Is the extinction map good

[halcyon crypt]

very

[lyric narwhal]

it isnt fun to play on but it has good tames for pvp

[timber summit]

Oh

[halcyon crypt]

bosses make you actually think when fighting them instead of

"good rex hold lmb, yes"

[lyric narwhal]

rex?

i do brood with procoptodon 🙂

[halcyon crypt]

i just did brood with a couple of rexes

[silent matrix]

I've always found Extinction to be more fun in PvP, in PvE It's pretty bland.
Although design wise It's cool to look at^^

[lyric narwhal]

all you need is a pump and a procoptodon

[halcyon crypt]

im too lazy to get all that ammo

[lyric narwhal]

and maybe a second mate if you can if ur on multiplayer

[lyric narwhal]

only need like 200-300

just get a stryder lol

[frank kettle]

Is 15 t-rex'es enough to kill broodmother gamma?

[delicate harbor]

u got footage?

[lyric narwhal]

look it up on yt

[delicate harbor]

stats? saddles?

[lyric narwhal]

you use a procop to jump onto the mushroom them pump it

[lyric narwhal]

yes

[delicate harbor]

ah ok i thought u had a procop army lmao

[lyric narwhal]

heck na

[frank kettle]

No saddles, level 400+ ( im using a mod for wild dinos )

[placid sundial]

Mod for levels?

[jade wren]

If someone's meshing on alts while there tribe comes to push outside. How can you prove its them? Happened twice. Have messages telling us why they doing it. But how can it be proven

[lyric narwhal]

video proof

otherwise it cant be proven

[frank kettle]

Difficulty 160+ Mod

[placid sundial]

Should use the INI option for it instead. Those levels mods are outdated and don't have great compatibility

set the Difficulty to 160 and spawn Dinos up to 4800
the Player level up to 300 ( last 15 Levels only over the Ark Quest )
and the tamed dino level up to 500 ( after tame you can level 500 )
yeah all that can be done with INI and I'd recommend it. Also having wild dino levels so high will result in their stats nerfing on restarts

[delicate harbor]

at that level you should have enough hp to just facetank it tbh

[placid sundial]

So yeah it might be a better option to change the levels with INI and alter the difficulty of wild dinos using damage and resistance options

[junior osprey]

bees got put back into the game?

[quartz kraken]

bees were taken out?

[junior osprey]

i think they were broken

[tacit knot]

i opened up ark and it shows 0 servers, i just played yesterday but now its not working at all, does anyone know how to fix the problem?

[junior osprey]

at least on windows 10 i think

[junior osprey]

need new update? or restart game

[quartz kraken]

probably down like PS was I think days ago?

[tacit knot]

i restarted but im actually seeing now that it does require an update, sorry for the bother lol

[quartz kraken]

ur fine

helps to just make sure

[dense shadow]

im gonna play through all the story maps of ark anyone wanna join me>

[wispy frigate]

He says after 2 community votes within 6 months of each other

Lol

[forest solstice]

im new to ark can someone teach me how to play

i know the basics

[quartz kraken]

don't die best advice😂

[lyric narwhal]

u fr?

trying to bring back the argument lmao

[quartz kraken]

let's just leave it again please

[wispy frigate]

Maybe I am, maybe I’m not

[lyric narwhal]

dude just keep quiet about it, theres no point

[quartz kraken]

what should I expect snagging a mag egg? I already know the lava can't insta me from YT wise on Lost Island

[wispy frigate]

There is when I’m bored

[quartz kraken]

using an argy as my flyer btw

unless I get a maewing prior😂

[uncut fractal]

Why does my rex feel worse than my wyvern at gathering meat

[wispy frigate]

Probably cause it is

[quartz kraken]

wyvern probably best or atleast better then Rex

[wispy frigate]

Dododex says rex is better but

[lyric narwhal]

so your trying to revive an unwanted argument

[wispy frigate]

It really doesn’t matter

[uncut fractal]

At most my rex kills it faster but by the time I reach the next dino

[wispy frigate]

I wouldn’t say its unwanted

[lyric narwhal]

it is unwanted

[wispy frigate]

I’m just commenting on how false your statements are

[wary widget]

ah cuss word here we go again

[wispy frigate]

Lol

[quartz kraken]

perry please I don't want a repeat😂

[lyric narwhal]

dw perry is now blocked 🙂

[stable idol]

how do i load up a specific save cause my inventory keeps clearing when i load it up

also map clears

[quartz kraken]

Xbox or

[stable idol]

windows 10

[quartz kraken]

idk

[wary widget]

is it possible to have multiple save files on 1 map? (steam)

[lyric narwhal]

steam epic or mic store?

[placid sundial]

Yeah, swap out the map's folder in the files

[wary widget]

ok

[placid sundial]

Steamapps>Common>Ark>Shootergame>Saved>[Mapname]SavedArksLocal

And just switch that around for each save

[wary widget]

ive always wondered why its called shootergame

[stable idol]

do you know the folder place for windows 10 @placid sundial ?

[fast sphinx]

They do

[placid sundial]

I don't know if you can even access the savefiles on win10

@slate widget do you know if it's possible/how to if so? Sorry hope you don't mind the ping, but you're more familiar than me

[stable idol]

bruh

my inv and map keeps clearing

[lyric narwhal]

cuz ark is wildcards first project and they were a little inexperienced at the start

[wary widget]

who uses mic store tho

[lyric narwhal]

its too late to fix it now so

[quartz kraken]

how hard does a magmasaur hit against an argy? for when I'd try to escape I don't wanna loose an argy out of caution

[stable idol]

sometimes i randomly get it all back but most of the time it loads up a new map with cleared inv but blueprints are still unlocked

[fast sphinx]

wildcard are fast to fix bugs @lyric narwhal

[wary widget]

how do i get into steamapps? found it

[lyric narwhal]

shootergame.exe isnt a bug

its lack of experience in the early development

[placid sundial]

Right click ark on sidebar on steam, properties, local files, browse

[fast sphinx]

I was talking about your message "wildcard isnt a friendly dev team that work on community feedback"

[halcyon crypt]

i mean it really depends on how you look at it

they did let us pick what creatures we wanted and let steam maps be on console

but customer support for the hundreds of bugs that they just never seem to fix is another issue

[fast sphinx]

I was the only one to report 3 different bugs and they were all patched in less than 3 hours

[wary widget]

when i go into the save can what do i do with lost island drag it into my desktop and make a new one in game and swap them in and out when i want to?

[lyric narwhal]

ur joking right

[fast sphinx]

No

[lyric narwhal]

lol how is that possible

[grave needle]

Maybe your entire perspective is incorrect

[lyric narwhal]

whenever i mention bugs that are actually gamebreaking they just ghost me lol

[wary widget]

i think he means 3 months

[fast sphinx]

The star dolphin mission, sinomacrops kibble and another one with dermis

[fast sphinx]

No 3 hours

[slate widget]

its in the Saved folder (one of the earlier folders for ini) cluster is for singleplayer while Maps is for dedicated server saves. I believe.

[placid sundial]

Main thing is that you remove the existing folder, Then loading back ark it'll let you create a new one. THen just swap out which one is in the Saved folder

[lyric narwhal]

oh prob because they had tons of reports

[wary widget]

thanks

[lyric narwhal]

and if someone says theres a major bug for pve players on gen 2 it gets fixes

[fast sphinx]

There is only 2 report on the forum, so no 😂

[lyric narwhal]

but of course no pvp bugs get fixed 🙂

[grave needle]

Imagine for a second that every day you had 20,000 sweaty neckbeards following you around, constantly whining about everything you did and telling you how much you suck, while also demanding that you cater to their every whim. How much would you want to do what they said

[placid sundial]

Do you know what this person should do?

I have 0 experience with the win10 files themself so

[lyric narwhal]

linux user?

[untold urchin]

i just updatewd my game it was a 40 gig update and now its updating again for 60 gigs

[wary widget]

r.i.p

[fast sphinx]

You can load a Windows Backup if you lost your save

[lyric narwhal]

my arks 450gb 😂

[untold urchin]

i dont have any space on my pc

[fast sphinx]

System Recovery -> Load a backup

[untold urchin]

what are these massive updates

[lyric narwhal]

you missing content prob

[slate widget]

all I can think of is, its not saving 🤷 make sure you have space on the same drive.
can also see if its creating a save in the folder.

[lyric narwhal]

@untold urchinwhat is that pfp lmao

[fast sphinx]

Pumpkin why u crying

[slate widget]

been crying for over a year :P

[untold urchin]

how

[lyric narwhal]

ark had corrupted files or smth and the corrupted files are big

idk prob isnt the reason but yea

[untold urchin]

its using more storage than it did before the update how is that possible

it should be the same

[wary widget]

...

[lyric narwhal]

i have all dlc so

its massive

[wary widget]

i got ark on pc on christmas i used to play on ps4 and i have all dlcs on ps4

on ps4 the game is already massive cause all the dlcs are built in but just locked

[slate widget]

isn't it smallest on playstation

[wary widget]

if it was like that on pc it would be in game files and would be exploited

[wary widget]

idk

mine on ps4 is 120gb

[slate widget]

yeah, thats smaller than base game on xbox :P you still gotta download the paid DLCs :P

135gb for base game 170 for all DLC.

[wary widget]

on xbox its 100 gb with all dlc

[wary widget]

are you on series x or s?

[slate widget]

S, but game sizes are pretty much the same across all xbox consoles 🤷

unless you download 4k textures :P but ark doesn't have those

[wary widget]

my friend has all dlcs on xbox one and its 100 gb

[wild needle]

Anyone know location of lost hatch on lost island?

[slate widget]

if you don't go into manage game and add-ons. it just says 135GB.

[quartz kraken]

hatch?

[slate widget]

big :P

[untold urchin]

so i think steam is trying to download more ark on top of ark

and i uninstalled it but ark is still not uninstalled

steam is so stupid

[slate widget]

what do you mean by that?

[untold urchin]

so I have the game installed and its installing more stuff that i already have installed

[slate widget]

@humble blaze #735196255483068497

[humble blaze]

Slowmode for me

[slate widget]

is it installing DLC or updating?

[humble blaze]

Shits way to long

[slate widget]

its meant to be that long.

[untold urchin]

it says updating i dont think its installing dlc

i uninstalled it but the files are still there

i dont know why

[slate widget]

delete the files 🤷

then reinstall :P

[untold urchin]

why is it doing that in the first place tho????

[slate widget]

steam gets confused sometimes.

[untold urchin]

why is ark the only game this happens with...

[slate widget]

its very large

I've had it fail to uninstall other games 🤷

it was skyrim and oblivion, could've gotten confused with the edited files.

for those not ark :P

@blissful pivot #735196255483068497

[grave needle]

Is it possible to feed a tuso less than 50 black pearls at once or does it have to be exactly 50

[quartz kraken]

for Taming or just in general food if u find out I'd also like a ping it'll be helpful eventually to know

[grave needle]

For taming. I'll pass it along if I find out!

[blazing badge]

what creatures can gather berries in the desert dome on extintion

[wispy frigate]

Morellatops

Doeds are there iirc

Probs a few others

[delicate harbor]

doed only harvest stone

its either a morelatops or you walk outside and grab a stego or a trike

[wispy frigate]

Maybe I’m thinking of anky

[heavy pumice]

hello

[delicate harbor]

ye anky good too

[wispy frigate]

Actually I think doeds can gather berries with their underwater attack

Maybe they can’t and I’m just being stupid tho

[grave needle]

Doeds have an underwater attack?? That's cool

[wispy frigate]

Ye its a bite that replaces the tail swing

[hidden stone]

@tough yarrow is there any way to contact support staff through discord? I got falsely banned and my ban appeal requests don't get read. All they have to do to conclude that it was an unjustified ban is verifying the time and location of the ban.

[tough yarrow]

I dont think so, I just know of the ban appeal.

[hidden stone]

What else can I do? I've submitted requests but all I get are automated messages. I've every last detail in my request, the only thing support needs to do is read.

[tough yarrow]

No idea, im a discord volunteer. Sorry.

Other than waiting.

[hidden stone]

Do you know if there is a channel for help that staff members read?

[tough yarrow]

#customer-support.

[hidden stone]

Yeah that is where I submitted the requests 😉 Thanks anyway, have a nice day.

Hello, can someone help me pls? i have ark on epicgames, how do i play with my friends?

[wary widget]

just do it

[proper scroll]

Do you tames/structures lose association with your tribe if all tribe members leave a map? My bro and I have a 2 server nitrado cluster, both popped over to Rag, and when we both came back to island it asked us to make new tribes

[grand bough]

I wanted to play the ark with my friends me on xbox and they on pc but when we want to join each other this appears : client buildid does not match host buildid
we both have game pass version
any1 know how to fix that?

[wispy frigate]

Enable floating damage numbers

[glass otter]

What event codes works on aberration on singleplayer on console?

Tried FearEvolved But dont seem to work

[red hare]

does anyone know how to play with my mates on ark with epicgames please ?

[frozen hemlock]

They shouldn't. I imagine it's whatever way you have the cluster setup, your .arkprofile/.arktribe files are getting messed up

[pulsar pasture]

Really that update didn't fix lost island 1666 official server as it keeps crashing every 3 minutes. CAN THE DEVS PLEASE LOOK INTO THAT SERVER ITS BLOODY RIDICULOUS couldn't even play the event on there it was wasted DEVS PLEASE LOOK INTO 1666 SERVER OFFICIAL

[grave needle]

I just managed to tame a 174 tuso without even losing my sacrificial bary 😳

[uncut fractal]

Finding the forest area caves on lost island is a fucking nightmare

[tough yarrow]

@pulsar pasture #server-reports if you haven't already done so

Is anyone else having issues connecting to server #1021. Lost connection and can't log back in

[tough yarrow]

I just said if you haven't. Sorry.

[tough yarrow]

They also aren't required to reply about a server outage

Thats just you telling them its messed up

my query ports are all variations of 27015 and 7777 example 27014 or 27018 do they need to be the same or something? Because i get a message saying invalid authentification token when i try to join my cluster

[crude ermine]

I was outside of home base. I hope I'm not dead 😭

Server 1021 is back up and I'm back at home base with my therizone. Thank you ark. I was afraid I was meat for a carnivore the way I lost connection lol

[silent matrix]

dude how do i get into my friends session

[ocean hemlock]

So finally have an Industrial Forge on top of the other things I was after yesterday
Charcoal's no longer an issue
Now I just need enough metal to keep up with the sudden influx

What do I want Sulphur for btw?
Keep finding a lot of it cuz the veins of it look a lot like metal in low lighting
Haven't found much use for it yet tho

[jovial wing]

my dedinonychus shout isnt working anymore? was working fine yesterday, any help?

[delicate harbor]

flamethrower ammo

[lone osprey]

how do i get leech blood?

been playing for a long time and i didnt even know it was an item bruh

[delicate harbor]

kill leeches at the swamp

or worms too

if you can access rag there is a cave full of giant worms you can kill for a good harvesting

[ocean hemlock]

Is the flamethrower any good against anything in particular?
Like, seems like a good crowd-control weapon obviously, will be handy for the multi-species packs that always seem the form in caves
But can I like
Melt golems with it or something?

[delicate harbor]

flamethrower and flame arrows can be used to kill dinos with high health and players in pvp

for pve you can use them to kill rockwell garden plants if youre careful

[wispy frigate]

Sulfer’s best use is probably magma raising

That or phoenix taming, not sure if fire wyvern is better tho

[weary jay]

Does anyone know if there's any specific "Sweet spots" for yuty stamina?

[grave needle]

Has anyone tamed something using a tuso before? Any tips?

[weary jay]

Wondering if I should only focus on breeding for health/stam or if damage is any use either

[ocean hemlock]

If it's good against death worms I'll take it
Tried using my rocket launcher against one, it took like 6 before going down

[wispy frigate]

For bosses? Won’t need more than 1.5k

[knotty lodge]

Health and stamina is my vote. They don't need a lot of stamina and usually don't need a lot of health. More for safey.. like if the rider is dismounted I suppose. Very low stress dino as far as stats are concerned. I call it my 'bard'

That said... they are a good fighting dino outside of bosses. Great damage and good health. Maybe you'll use them for meat runs if you go md. Honestly, if you love the dino and want to use it for every day ark stuff, do it!

[halcyon crypt]

melee can go into consideration for tanky minions on bosses

like broodmothers araneos, or crystal wyvern heirs

[weary jay]

I saw somewhere that 3.5k is apparently a good spot since you'll recharge stam at about the rate you use it

[ocean hemlock]

Now I gotta go invest in a chemistry bench

[halcyon crypt]

i just shoot for 2k

[knotty lodge]

I agree with Perry... 3.5k is a lot..

[wispy frigate]

Their dps is meh
They have good health tho

[weary jay]

Yeah, apparently it's equal to rexes

That's mad tanky

[wispy frigate]

I mean, higher stam doesn’t mean you regen faster

[wispy frigate]

It is

[knotty lodge]

dps for meat runs? 😐

[weary jay]

Is it not percentage based?

[wispy frigate]

Wdym

[weary jay]

And I have an 800+ starting melee wyvern so I use that for meat

[wispy frigate]

More dps the better

[knotty lodge]

Ah, maybe not. Damage for meat, right? Not damage per second?

[weary jay]

Yeah

[wispy frigate]

I meant damage per second

But w/e

[weary jay]

Well higher base damage = more dps

[knotty lodge]

DPS does not affect the harvest.. ark doesn't care how fast you killed a bronto.

[wispy frigate]

Yes, but I do

As in, I want to kill stuff faster

[weary jay]

My current lightning wyvern is at like 2.5k damage

Blitzes everything in a single breath that isn't named giga or titano

I think I've even taken down alphas in a single blast

[wispy frigate]

Nice

[grave needle]

What do deep sea loot crates look like? I'm on the map exactly where one supposedly is and there's nothing here

[wispy frigate]

Or pegomastex

Once they run, they fade away forever

[wispy frigate]

Glowing upside down pyramid

They aren’t guaranteed to be there

[grave needle]

Ah oh, that must be it. Thank you!

[weary jay]

I mean, I've killed tanky animals by grazing them on accident with 1 tick of lightning breath

[silent matrix]

Like the size of 2 dodos and glows and is on the ground or underwater or in caves

[weary jay]

It's a red upside down pyramid

[knotty lodge]

What they said, also use a scuba mask 👍

[weary jay]

Oh that answer was given nice

Or just play on ragnarok for 5 easy crates in the desert

I set up my base in the desert temple area, so it's easy access to all of them

[cunning solar]

how do I copy my char off official to use locally?

[ocean hemlock]

Do I need to take the skin inside for the loot crates containing the artifacts to respawn

[weary jay]

With a wyvern/griffin and oil rigs, I have all the fuel I'll ever need

Skin?

[grave needle]

Hmm from my tests I can't figure out what the scuba mask does at all lol

Looks exactly the same but worse FOV

[knotty lodge]

It will help you see the color for those underwater drops.

[wispy frigate]

Supposedly makes vision better underwater
But of course, only works on some maps

[grave needle]

I have a clear water mod so that might already be doing it

[olive egret]

so we wake up on an island with nothing but our chonies and a thingamagig in our wrist, where does our mapbook come from lol?

[wispy frigate]

Map isn’t canon

[silent matrix]

It just appears

[olive egret]

oh, thats good to know

next, more serious question, whats a good hp threshold for rexes/theris on bosses, and a good target armor amount, wanna make sure i have enough for this

[knotty lodge]

No, really, use it for drops. Go in an underwater cave with one. Don't worry about water visibility. Just the drops 🙂

[olive egret]

island bosses, Alpha specifically

[vague cairn]

If a dino died from lava would it say it in on the screen?

[weary jay]

Alpha needs lots of mutations and support iirc so

My answer would be to sell your soul and go for 20 on both attack and health

[olive egret]

itll say, dino died but not what killed it, if its like the way it does for drowning

[vague cairn]

i lost my thyla in the lava cave on the island cause I died from 2 mega rabies and idk where it is

[olive egret]

yeah, i plan on going to 20 on both, im like halfway there for the theris and about to start doing the rexes

[grave needle]

I feel your pain exactly, RIP Lauren and Otter #2 😐

[vapid bison]

whats the best strat for broodmother, all megatherium or should i switch in some amargas and yuts

[vague cairn]

if I lost the thyla I lost a 93 armor megalodon blueprint 😦

[olive egret]

wondering if i might be better off going gamma bosses first for engram unlocks on tek, get the mutator and then hope for more muts on the dinos for Alpha

[weary jay]

Why would you use amarga

[olive egret]

@vapid bison megatheriums with a yut and daedon and she dies so quick

[weary jay]

What does it do? Haven't looked much at the update

[vapid bison]

amargas increase dps by 25%

[weary jay]

So discount yuty

[vapid bison]

same as yuts but its an enemy debuff

[olive egret]

and it has like aoe elemental fields which are good, but they die super quick

[weary jay]

If you're running it with someone else then I'd use both

So that you can keep both back to support the others

But megatherium already blitzes that boss

[ocean hemlock]

I'm noticing a consistent problem I have
I'm tanky enough to survive most encounters but don't have the DPS to end them

[weary jay]

For bosses or general gameplay

[vapid bison]

i have a squad im doing it with im just in charge of coordinating it really

[olive egret]

no reason not to use megatheriums tbh, its like they were added to the game just for that boss lol

[ocean hemlock]

Both really

[olive egret]

damn if only thylas bleed worked on bosses, my thyla muts are coming along nicely lol

[vapid bison]

bleed would immeadiatley merk all bosses

[ocean hemlock]

Like
Manticore Gamma cannot hurt me
Its attacks do like 1 damage while my armor has durability left
Problem is my best weapon I can reliably use is a longneck that deals maybe 100 damage tops per shot to bosses with like 10k HP

My first encounter with it was literally it just stunlocking me and slowly chipping away at my armor for about 10 minutes until I eventually died

[olive egret]

where did you dinos go lol

[vapid bison]

get some wyverns, theyre pretty good for manticore no?

[olive egret]

you can take flyers into boss fights?

[ocean hemlock]

I didn't bring any cuz upgrade station mod's made me a one-man army lol

[weary jay]

For some

[vapid bison]

flying bosses only

[olive egret]

LOL @ocean hemlock love it!!!

[weary jay]

Does it work for rag?

[olive egret]

wait, so i can bring in wyverns against dragon?

[weary jay]

Since manticore is there

[vapid bison]

i would bring like 10 decent fire wyverns rare flowers and just tank while your wyverns dot it

assuming rare flowers work on bosses

i think you can bring flyers for wyvern

[ocean hemlock]

Like
Am I supposed to be able to survive a Death Worm eating me lol

[vapid bison]

ik theres also a drag weight restriction though

[ocean hemlock]

That's how busted my Ascendant Ghille Armor is
1289 total armor

My current main weapon is an Ascendant Pike
Does 650% of the damage of a normal one
Trying to improve that tho through the Obsidian tools offered by Primitive Plus
But my god do Obsidian Ingots take a long time to smelt

[nocturne pasture]

Anyone have tips to level up the rest of the way on official, I’m level 66 and need to be 85

[vapid bison]

i was wrong, you can only bring flyers into the manticore and crystal wyvern queen arenas

[weary jay]

Why fire when lightning damage go brrrr

[nocturne pasture]

I did ext note run, I was supposed to get level 85 from it

[vapid bison]

fire does %health dot no?

[weary jay]

Don't think so

Otherwise they'd be nuts

Lightning damage is insane, but if fire did that you'd see fire wyvern mobs the way deinonychus or gigas get used

And lightning wouldn't be as good

[vapid bison]

ik lightning is nutty i just dont know how consistent the ai is with hitting the breath

[ocean hemlock]

Honestly I'm just pushing to see how much I can kill by myself
Only relying on tames for resource gathering

[vapid bison]

killing alphas is always the quickest

[ocean hemlock]

The pike I have already one-shots anything less than a Carno

[vapid bison]

especially with notes

id persoanlly look for loot drops, like the underwater ones

[nocturne pasture]

Yea it’s gonna be lots of fun trying to get to 85 😦

[vapid bison]

ive gotten some pretty nutty shotgun bps

ik raptors get you like 2 or 3 levels even at low levels

its not that bad

[nocturne pasture]

Yea I just started and did a note run on ext and got 66 but imma try to get all the notes so I’ll see where that gets me

Got nothing better to do

[snow rover]

Best method of leveling past 100 on official?

[ocean hemlock]

Was gonna try and head to the Crag Artifact cave but there's this Queen thing in the way
Massive beast that shoots a spray of tranq spines

Actually
How vulnerable to tranqing is it?
Cuz given how tanky it is and how much firepower it seems to have
Might be able to have it carry me through the Manticore fight

[nocturne pasture]

I might just restart my whole run cause I died a few times

[weary jay]

What map?

[ocean hemlock]

SE

[weary jay]

Ah, thought you meant the worm queen on rag

[ocean hemlock]

Cannot get close enough to see its full name
But it's like a huge spiky Rex

[halcyon crypt]

giga?

[ocean hemlock]

All I need to know is if constant pestering with tranq arrows is enough to bring it down

[ocean hemlock]

Something "Queen"
Has a spray of tranq spines

[halcyon crypt]

reaper queen?

no clue how it got onto scorched earth

im not sure if reapers are susceptible to tranqs

[ocean hemlock]

Have a mod that adds creatures from other maps to all maps
Been having major Karkinos issues this whole playthrough lol

And yeah, definitely a Reaper Queen

[halcyon crypt]

reaper queen is a deadly foe, take caution

though if you have a lightpet

the task of killing one is eased

[ocean hemlock]

I have successfully gotten it stuck against the wall of my house and am commencing advanced cheese

[halcyon crypt]

mmm yess

continue the cheese

[ocean hemlock]

Suddenly the water turned to acid

[silent matrix]

You can’t tame her directly. You need to be impregnated by her— check the wiki

[ocean hemlock]

Wh

[silent matrix]

https://ark.fandom.com/wiki/Reaper

They’re very obviously a reference to the aliens from the Alien franchise. I don’t see why you’re surprised lol

[grave needle]

Not everyone has seen Alien tbf lol

[halcyon crypt]

i don't think he wants to tame it but rather kill it

[ocean wedge]

Why my dinos doesnt put eggs? I have oviraptor buff and improved egg laying

[covert basalt]

Hi can I ask a question about leveling tames?

I'm kind of newb

Well me and my brother have been playing in the island and we both decided to tame a couple of argys i tamed a level 108 and he a level 103

But for some reason when I level my argys damage it adds 100% per level

But for my brother it only adds like 30%

It's this a bug?

Or some kind or feature

[tough yarrow]

@winged ridge #735196277221883964

[covert basalt]

I'm from argentina but I only play ps4

Also that

[brittle sorrel]

Is it possible to pillar down to gen2 space world border?

[jovial wing]

my deinonychus shout isnt activating when i use it anymore, was working fine yesterday any help?

[silent matrix]

Damn you’re right. Just remembered this is 2022 not 2012 talking to my dad about how cool aliens are

[quartz kraken]

ok I do need help where do gasbags spawn on the Lost island I didn't see it's location on wiki but it says it spawns on lost island

[tawdry tulip]

Idk if my game is glitched but on lost island no magmasaurs spawn, or there eggs, I've tried restarting my game but nothing works.

[royal gale]

does anyone have the code that turns element into soap and vise versa?

[vague cairn]

what is the best place to get megatherium or allo saddle blueprints

[vapid bison]

do dinos despawn at or above level 450?

[grave needle]

On official, above

[vapid bison]

underwater drops regularly give the best bps

[pseudo meteor]

Deep Sea loot crates they're called

[vague cairn]

I was looking at the loot tables and they aren't in deep sea loot crates

[pseudo meteor]

Yanno I don't think I've seen many of those over the years. Megatherium or allo saddle BP.

[vague cairn]

im trying allos out against the monkey and I hate grinding looking for bps
