ohhh, alright thanks!
any time. It also resets if say a stack of meat has one expire. That essentially makes it a new "stack" so it will reset then. It can be a pain but if you happen to have a pair of fed tek suit gloves off gen2, whatever would normally pull your map up, hold that instead of pressing it and it should show you the upload timer in the top left corner of your screen instead of having to go to an obelisk or transmitter to see.
oki
guys how do i access a sino's inventory while he is on me and how do i drop him
i think its hold r to get inventory.
hold R for inventory, double tap F to remove
Is the portal the best ark spawn
I have cleared my entire mods folder by an accident, and now my non paid dlcs are crashing bc there are no assets what should i do
Or fertile lake 1
Did you wait for them to reinstall
And is it still in the recycle bin
ask in #bobs-with-probs
it's got something to do with verifying files but idk how to do that
I did
Do you still have the save file
save file?
Did you play on the map?
yeah, but i cleared the file afterwards bc i wanted to start over, and I saw I didnt have much space on my disk so I deleted all my mods folder because a bunch of them were useless, and then I tried playing and crystal isles loaded but no terrain only "ocean" and rest of the maps were crashing
idont even know
how
I'll send you in dm
okay
hey uh can i have help with something... anyone?
so ive noticed that lost island gives me the worst fps out of any ark map.. is there any fix to this ( other than the usual lower quality settings etc )
Does anyone know how to make plus 100K+ ARB a day solo, currently I got 17 chem benches, grinders, 8 indi forges and a couple of exo-meks, if I use tek leggings and slot cap myself I can make about 50K ARB a day.
Is there a better more efficient way to make ARB solo or is it a case of just making more benches/forges?
Not really I don't think, try power cycling your xbox (Hold down power button for 10 secs) if you've done that and you're on the lowest settings then that is all you can do, unless the servers are playing up, which is a very real possibility
im on pc 💀
can someone help me with my ark i just installed the win10 version and when i wanna go on "join ark" it says " unable to complet action pls check account priviliges"
Why is Plant turrents still Broke ???? makes no sense to fix something with them when Xbox / windows version can not even place them down?
Can I play with my friend on xbox if I have steam version??
Nope. Xbox can only crossplay with Win10 (purchased and played through the microsoft store xbox app)
Steam can only crossplay with Epic and Stadia if the Steam has no mods
can someone help me with my ark i just installed the win10 version and when i wanna go on "join ark" it says " unable to complet action pls check account priviliges"
enable raid dino feeding and dotame that bad boy
lol
`my friend crashes when he selects a spawn in abberation
it takes him back to the title screen
does he have the aberration dlc?
yes
where can i find people to play with on a solo world im new so i dont want to play on a server
make sure he double checks it to ensure it is installed (after one update mine randomly uninstalled)
Are you wanting to join someone on a non-dedicated session? or host your own?
he does have it installed
is a tiatanosour good on anything or nah?
host my own if i can that way i can always go back and play it
hmm. does he have trouble on any other map? Is he able to try to log onto that aberration map without his character? (as in go to create character screen but not continue)
I got ask to xbox players genesis season pass is out to game pass or what?
Ah okay. Then you would need to post in #735196267373920286 just be sure to read #bulletin-board-rules first
he doownloaded his og character
and no he didnt

You can try asking in #bobs-with-probs but spamming other chats without getting answered won't get it answered faster.
Ah okay. hmm I'm not sure then. That's super weird. Perhaps suggest he restart his game/pc/internet and see if that helps at all
fair enough thx
quick question does movement speed transfer over to babies while breeding
No, levels you put in to your Dino will not transfer to the baby, it will only transfer the stats you got when you tamed it.
8+ raptors in a pack never seen that many before
im gonna need more than 2 bolas i think
Is the abb build?
Might be bed capped. Happened for me. Kept crashing me when ever I downloaded my char and tried to spawn on a bed
its a new world
Mhmmm
Idk then sry
Did he try to validate his game files?
Or reinstall the Abberation dlc
Sorry if this is a dumb question but I’m new to gardening, is crops getting trampled a thing?
No. So long as they have water and fertilizer. They'll be fine.
You could run them over with a Mammoth and they'll be fine
Actually while you’re here do you know the recommend ram needed to run primal fear with all it’s expansions 🥸
Oof, I'd recommend 16gb. But on minimum settings in low memory mode you could probably get away with 8gb
Aight cause when I ran it on Olympus with other mods and stuff I ended up running out of memory the few times I tried it
Could always keep testing it. Go into sp, gcm mode and spawn in nova(the flashiest boss), see if you run out of memory
Actually when I was loading into the map is when I ran out of memory I believe I never made it into the actual game
I’ll try it again in a bit
Cut down on the number of mods. Drop some of the expansions, Olympus has pretty good spawns.
Drop your graphics and launch with low memory mode
Cause I was also getting an error with the game and ended up having to wipe my entire player save from the folders
I remember it worked one night then the next day I added a few more mods and ended up getting the big error as well as no more ram
16
Another issue is that I never put them as the first mods on the list ☠️☠️
It may be easier on a server and less intense on your pc
I’ll try it later today with them as the first ones with a few mods
I don’t have a primal fear server to try it on
I’ll look for one though
unofficial pvp sucks bro i need a grenade for a bola bro ill still play cus its funny raiding newbies
lol
i never even went to unofficial
I do still host my primal fear server.
What’s the mod list again I know I’ve seen it before but I can’t rem exactly what’s on it
Also I thought it was like a patreon exclusive cluster or somethin
PF mods and decor mods
Do y’all wipe on it?
Only once the server dies
Anybody know if starwing strike is actually possible on ps?
I can’t move the pointer with my right stick and I can’t just crash through obstacles like you used to be able to
Plug in a mouse and keyboard and thank me later 😎
I don’t even have a mouse and keyboard
(I’m on Xbox)
I’ve got a laptop
Ooo okay. I mean even a cheap one would work. Maybe ask a friend or family if they have a spare or borrow theirs?
I’ll see about it
So annoying it’s not just binded to controller in the first place
Something as basic as being able to move
Wish wildcard would do their job and ban hackers, im getting tired of rebuilding and just watching my base get raided by aim botters.. the SAME TRIBE ive reported 4 times to them..
Downriver run also just slams my canoe into half the rocks
Yea the mouse and keyboard is good for that too. It was the only way I could do it on Xbox.
Damnit
@chilly tiger #735196255483068497
holy shit i just found out dino orgies are a thing in ark
my man mating with 8 females
lol yupp
Why did rockwell think it was a good idea to inject him self with element?
guys can someone tell me if it cost money to play on a world with some friends
it does not
only if you rent a server.
Because element is power?
he saw the rock drakes and thought, that looks cool.
lol
but like is it a private server that only my friends can join and nobody else?
Depends. You can host your own (non dedicated) server, host your own dedicated server on the pc if good hardware or on another pc that you might own (all which cost nothing but electricity) OR rent a server with some companies which will cost money.
Playing on official or basically any other server that’s hosted already by third parties is free too
ok thanks 🙂
Np 🙂
Non dedicated is really limited but super nice for casual gaming.
I’d settle for hosting your own dedicated server maybe if you wanna play independently from friends or vice versa at times. There are plenty tuts out there on how to set up either of those options!
If anyone runs gen 1 or Tek cave boss, dm please, I'll join with my own kit and dino
That moment you're about to tame a new highest level dino, and then it decides to walk into your encampment and gets killed 🤦♂️
can i bring meks into boss fights?
I just tamed a doedic, are they useful for anything other than stone?
thanks
np
why is ctrl for attack
I have this leech on my screen and it wont go away, i tried buring and it wont work, what do i do?
pull them off your tame and it'll go away
better question why not
i didnt know gigas can spawn on the isaldn
i just found a max level giga on the snow bioem
How can I even get a gas collector if red gems are in the red zone
ima go make some gunpowder then raid some lad for cp
Lol, epic
They don't drop a lot
Go to the blue zone find a rat and camp it. You'll get enough. You don't need many
Guys. If i put alot of babys around the maewing. And they get juvenile. Will they still eat from maewing??
apparently mine still eat until they are adult
however they prefer trough because they give lower food value than maewings and they will eat trough before maewings can feed them
So they eat the maewing empty first?
trough first
So if i get u right. Babys eat from maewing then they go to trought?
My mate says they eat from maewing all the way
well shit im being raided as we speak
Baby's dont eat from the trough, but once they are at 10% they do
not even at my base lol
No so
if trough is in range, Juveniles/Adol will eat from trough first because trough give lower food value than a maewing that has levelled into nursing
for me babies eat through troughs all the time
so just move them away from trough with only Maewing. I have been raising 8 gigas and they will always empty my trough first -.-
Oh i didnt read your message carefully mb
Baby cant eat from trough so they will rely on Maewing
but after baby phase, if trough is in range they will eat from trough first
He got mad at me because I throw out alot of babys near the maewing. And the maewinf was standing near the trough
Hehehe. Then i have a better argument to fire at him 😂
how many dinopithecus need to stay alive in order to be tamed??
i mean itsnt to bad to set up trough near Maewing as they always have weight or slot limit, unless you put like 2-3 Maewings together lol
@small canyon just 1
Only the alpha lol
that is for the male tho, female can be tamed at low hp
If there are 2 together that you want to tame, you need to separate them
It was just argys anyway. They dont eat so much
😹 meanwhile i raise wyverns without food and i just use snow owl
That's more effort than just knocking out a wyvern lol
My wyverns have 0 food points ( 1800 food ) but its HP is 20k so i figure out that i can just heal them every few hours
That works I guess
the whale or dolphin tho?
if it is the dolphin you need to learn the saddle engram to ride
Did they change that?
I did
It just flings me off when i enter star wing mode tho
O.o that is strange as i never had that problem
.> just go with deinonychus farm
Does anyone know if splitscreen on the Microsoft store on pc was ever implemented?
It is probably just for xbox usrs
What’s the best map for ark?
what key is it to make monkey throw poop
That's such bs. It was advertised as being one of the features when they allowed the game to be downloaded from the Microsoft store
Gen1 or Gen2
Ty
what key is it to make monkey throw poop
It's personal preference
I like ab, or scorched earth
Lots of people like rag, or crystal isles
There are always lots of dinos on some maps that aren't on others
Maybe gen2 if not then lost island
Praise the noglin
Kk ty
what key is it to make monkey throw poop
How do you climb zip lines with a ravager on ps4, I know you press space on pc but I can’t find the controls for ps4 which is what I’m on
Nevermind of course I figured it out right after asking
just found out on the unofficial pvp server im on if i kill an alpha i get tek gear
well knowing that i shall abuse it
is there anyway to download battleye without admin
No
Lol what? Thats op
been playing ark for a few hours in a singleplayer world
where are the dinos.
Should be everywhere
I haven't found a single one and I'm playing with the default settings the game gave me when I wanted to host a singleplayer world
I would go with deinonychus but im on the island only so im using Yutys
Is there a way to edit taming speed on single player?
Yea when youre about to jump into the game of single player you should see options for the world and look for one that edits taming speed
Yup, taking speed setting
Kk ty a lot
Real question is, when will xbox get the function to modify the player range
guys someone now what happened with GFN ? why ark offline 4 days?
exist some info about this troubles?
since dinos aren't spawning, should I start a new world-?
Bro i have question for experienced players. Can lvl 114, 63, and 34 trikes kill a lvl 40ish rex? If so, whats the highest lvl rex that they cant.
Please reply if you have an answer so i get a noti
I've killed that level of alpha Rex at that level lol
Really?!? I swear, trikes are amazing. Going into the snow, wish me luck
Is it just me or is the rate on pve servers down?
if i crypod my quetz will my build on platform saddle come back when i bring it out or no?
Hey Suche einen deutschen mate zum Ark zocken auf ps4
One expensive way to find out lol
But, no, gone.
Quick question are my friends on xbox able to join my pc non dedicated or no?
PC as in steam?
Win10 and Xbox can play together. Only those are “cross play” lol
Xbox/Win10 do crossplay together yes. But Steam/Stadia/Epic also crossplay with each other as long as the Steam has no mods.
Whats the melee of the trikes
Sorry i had accidentally typed rexes instead of trikes. Brain went splat for a moment lol
im breeding rexes and i havent even stepped foot int othe first cave yet
how do u get the good tek bow bps mega tribes have
also don't spam channels with the same question 😄
kek
can u get them from looot crate?
Either raid people who have the good bps or just look in the gen 2 drops
191, 247, 391. Yes the lowest leveled has the most damage
Hmmmm theres 3 of them and are they mate boosted with saddles?
@amber lynx I just got an ascendant max dmg off alpha velo mission on Gen 2
You can net it
not yet don't have level for it I just started like 10 minutes ago
well a little longer then 10 minutes but still
instantly found an otter but no fish around
just went into water wise
Build an argy trap and use a rare flower
I'm almost dead by a single piranha😂 I found 2 Salmon fed one to otter but piranha are second I think
Correct
haha no more stopping my tame piranha😂 I managed to bring it more fish without the piranha eating it
what's the easiest Gen 2 mission?
Velonosaur stalks
I don't see it in the tracking atleast
I'm not at a terminal thing in the inventory one and it's not showing
look for the icon floating. it'll say last known area a certain distance away
I'm in the terminal thingy and still not oh well I probably should worry ATM about missions
ohhhh uhm I think it's press y for missions?
It's not the same as the transferring thing.
wasn't showing velonasaur hunt thing even on my inventory section
by inventory I mean your inventory skills tribe and such
Hey so I accidentally turned on my advanced hud in ark on ps4
Any way to turn it off?
anyone german here
https://ark.fandom.com/wiki/Missions_(Genesis:_Part_2) maybe this will help?
You asked that yesterday. Gotta wait to find a tribe in #735196277221883964 . Perhaps adding a message in german stating you are looking for tribemates who also speak german for a specific map/official/unofficial PVP or PVE might help. You can post in there every 6 hours I believe.
no wrong link I guess😂
6 hours.
better?
oh wait it's including the>
It gives a list of all the missions and brief explanation on how to do it at the terminals
how often do items spawn in the obelisk terminal?
i finally got a 1tb external drive to download ark 🤪🤪
Nice
Nothing should be spawning in the obelisk
I just opened the terminal and there was an element
What server?
then it turns out I'm a thief 😲 😲 😲
Ok, thx
no dinosaurs are spawning anywhere
XD you think that's something, go to Extinction. TONS of element left in the city terminals on official maps. Since you can only transfer element dust, most people don't bother turning it to shards and then to dust to transfer and just leave it.
how do I fix this??
are you on single player?
yeah
does anyone have any tips i suck
Did you just start it?
I started it a few hours ago today and roamed around the South of the island world, haven't found any sign of dinosaurs and its concerning me so I'm assuming there's literally just none
Play pvp servers and learn how to build towers, chandis, d walls and pvping. Dont stick to pve ur never gonna get good at the game, ur only getting good at dinos 😭😭
alr thanks
Can I then transfer dust from this map to valguero and a tek suit from genesis 2 to valguero?
Lol, if you like pvp then yeah
you sure can
i'm sorry buy what?
^
in order to fulfill this plan, I just need to buy 2 cards: genesis 2 and extinction?
Bruh, it's literally a bola and club
bro i dont know what u mean 😭😭
Why would you spend money, when you can steal from bobs
it
You also get banned
Not for my friends
You have some scummy friends then lol
not really my friends but some people i know
i called them that bc i play with them
I mostly stick on unofficals but i grind for them when they need
@stone shuttle
im not a bob either trust me
Gonna go ahead and put a halt on this one
Lol
when does Love evolved end?
Real money transactions violate Wildcard's terms of service as well as breaks this discord's #rules as well. I know people do it, but that doesn't mean it's right.
They probably know
it's something people do get globally banned from.
No problem. 🙂
i dont even play official js unofficial
Smh no one ever reads the rules
i grinf on unofficial and get taught how to pvp
sorry
Ah I see what you meant, you need to purchase the season passes for the game for the additional maps, yes.
Sirens right.
Plus your “friends” are scammers, from what I’ve seen no one would want that much anyways, so you’re not only breaking rules but making a fool of yourself 😶
Yea, honestly if you want some OP gigas, go to official PVE and be nice lol
You'd be surprised at how often people trade for free on there.
...
If official PVE I give 1285 at hatch for free 😉 (eggs)
I have 2 thatch, I'll trade lol
I would get all kinds of free gigas, keep breeding or drop on cloners for free or trade for cc dinos
Dodo?
Trade for a dodo?
I even had a male setup with free mating once I got new lines but ppl left females for cooldown on my island so I eventually stopped it 😶
No u can get eggs for free if u come pick them up lol
lol
so many pvp players don't realize how easy it is to get OP stuff on PVE lol and you can keep it. Don't gotta fight to keep stuff or steal it back
I never knew there were nice people on official pve
I used to be on it lol well xbox* official
I only ever ran into the passive aggressive ware on resources
I went on a pve unoffical server and stole all there cryos 😭 it was sooo funny
Ye but you can’t transfer it to pvp lol
Yea you'd be banned from my cluster in a heartbeat lol
Some great communities exist like RoGather that do fun and all hard boss runs weekly for free etc etc.
I try sharing stuff when ppl ask for it as well, played long enough and have excess of dinos anyways
damn
not to mention the admins can just creative mode craft them back or do a rollback
Hey there everyone does anybody have a giga saddle for trade or just lying around,would greatly appreciate it,thank you in advance
I’d do but I guess you on PS ?
Yeah forgot to mention ps PVE,i assume youre on a different platform?
Yes steam. So can’t crossplay since Sony is solitary with their servers. Maybe also try asking in #pve-discussion , small trades are usually done there 🙂
Okay thank you also is it just Sony or can Xbox and PC trade?
Xbox can crossplay with Win10 players if they're on the same pvp or pve servers, or between a cluster. Steam/Stadia/Epic can crossplay with each other on PC if steam has no mods included
Playstation is all by itself lol
im trying to join a small tribes server but it says invalid authentication token. anyone know why?
and then connection timed out
@solemn bronze Always gotta be playstation and there lame exclusiveness 😔🤷♂️
yea i feel ya. At least we both can be sad that consoles don't get any mods like PC do.
Be nice if ark2 had a full cross play, at least for official
Ngl, having bots come over and wipe everything you’ve done in the event as you can’t fight back is dumb as fuck.
@solemn bronze Thats another thing that bums me,Xbox and PC actually have mods while other games like Skyrim,Fallout,Etc have some but not as many as those 2
As of right now it is launching as PC and Xbox only..
I think with the sheer size of the game, consoles couldn't really handle the specs needed to play the game at all with mods
Yeah, I can only hope though
With mods no, and that isn't allowed for most consoles anyway
Im sure Ark 2 will come to the playstation itd be a giant lose of money and if not its never to late to buy an Xbox😂🙃
But maybe for unmodeed
Skyrim I can add alllllll kinds of mods to
XD
Ah, I've never played Skyrim lol
Or console either
@solemn bronze I get that,just the servers themselves cant even keep up with the vanilla version so many times i died because i blue screen or just kicks me out
Ark was my first video game ever jaja
haha yep. *oh i'm flying over a modest sized base with some glass.... * instant DC
Raq youre missing out get Skyrim and ill see you in half a year😂yeah the games that good
well ... it is a pretty great game so I can't be too upset. Skyrim is a lot of fun. I moved on to Elder Scrolls Online now though which is pretty great too
Isn't it super old though?
Ohh you still playing it? I got to like level 400ish on ESO and even got some DLCs but haven’t played in over a year or so 😶
they recently came out with an anniversary edition.
Yes. I'm like 750+ I think.
@regal yarrow It is but the gameplay,mechanics,story,lore basically everything to it
I don't have nostalgia for older games, so I usually only play things that both look 2020 and play well
I can't remember. I haven't really played much since joining ark but I am up to date on DLCs and recently pre-ordered the High Isles DLC collector's edition
You'd probably like Elder Scrolls then.
Wow they really increased level cap over the years 😮
When I kinda stopped playing it was at 450 or 500 I think with further levels not showing / unlocking more points
Hmm, I don't know if I can make the time lol
Well to each their own but if you ever wanna give it a go you'll like it
Oh yea. level cap is like 1600 now. They upped it a little over a year ago
Nice thing about ESO is you don't have to stay on it to keep progress like ark
I used to play ESO, one of the only mmos I actually got into :P
Omg sounds like a different game now 😶😝
I still remember how happy I was leveling both my werewolf and vampire char plus a healer char for dungeons over 250 xD
I really liked the vast maps, spent so much time just traveling and exploring xD
I can’t wait for the otter shrine map 😉
I used to run a pretty good guild on there. I would teach new players how to clear zones and we would clear one out each weekend. Did all the world bosses, public dungeons, collect all the skyshards, grab lore books, dolmen...
I knew I liked you lol
That …. Is clearly not ESO I’m afraid 😂😂
you could've played if you played on PC :P but you took too long xD
🤣🤣🤣
Which would you prefer i heard Final Fantasy 14 online was another popular mmo havent tried ESO
I did a bit but I want official !
OMG what is this
I found it when I searched dough 😂
Just remember to revert back to topic lmao
Bloody, I managed to do dolmens solo eventually on full DPS magicka chars but never joined a guild or anything
I couldn't get into FF. I wanted to but couldn't.
Kk 🙂
But, did you like, actually, call me a dough 😮 ??
I still run around and solo them XD
My little bosmer stamblade is often underestimated by people until I throw down and they're like DAMMNNNNN wanna join our guild? lol
otter is weird :P thats why I was finding a dough gif 😂
She so rude like dough, cmon 🥺
@solemn bronze Yeah i tried it for one day and i quit since there was so much info to process,couldn't get out of the tutorial area since there where so many icons everywhere
If you are ever interested, I can send you some screenshots of my Elder Scrolls binder
Has lots of good information and its what I used to run the guild through those events and further along the storylines
Max DPS build, google it lmao 😂
There’s so much like which race, armor, rings …
ESO used to be my shit. Then I stopped, went back for a DLC, and realized I’m not good. Even tho I could do most solo. That game is nuts. I can’t wait for a second iteration or big revamp.
bet I did more quests in skyrim then you did :P
all in just 14 days.
I call cheat engine 😮
Hotoshop lol.
I’m glad ark doesn’t have quests because I would never do them 😂
xbox so impossible 😗
Lol, that's what missions are jaja
@solemn bronze sure,will i need DLC to enjoy the game though,i know theres alot of DLC to the game from what ive seen
I've done like 3 missions in ark 😂
and thats between both genesis
Not you’re right 😭 I don’t like those either
Rip, they are so fun, especially on gen 2
Gen2 missions make you want to cheat.
Hold up theres missions in Ark?
I have a house with all the crafting pieces in it. Have tons of armor sets, writs still left undone... it's crazy
Lol
genesis has missions.
In genesis yeah Xd
I never saw them as quests though 😭
Now I dislike them even more
honestly, you don't need to have all DLCs to enjoy the game. It just opens up more quests and areas to explore.
Ohhh
Wasn’t there a funky way of hooking your Xbox to pc via cable and mod it somewhat ? Not sure I think I heard of ppl going ham with that on a forum lmao
Only Genesis?Sorry yall im a no DLC plebe so i dont know much😅
Star Dolphin and the other you could cheese early. I took em both legit with my alt. Fuck those missions lol
I hook up my keyboard and mouse to my xbox and do the missions that way
pretty sure thats xbox 360 stuff 🤷 has to do with save files.
Try crystal isles it’s a nice free map
hook up mouse and keyboard. thank me later.
Lmao I only ever stuck with my default bank for storage 😝
Dam feeling like reinstalling it again now xD
@magic tulip Is that the one with the new crystal wyverns?
Yeah I know. I’m too lazy and I got good with the controller
yes! it's also my favorite map!!
Thanks tho. I know it was the only way in the beginning.
I only have 2 games on my xbox. Ark and ESO XD
Ahh kk yea was a while ago, briefly read through it only but found it pretty interesting as to what some ppl attempt xD
Real question is,is it bigger than Ragnarok?and does it have more dinos to tame?
Gen2?
nah, I'm pretty sure there's a bugged quest that repeatedly completes :P until the limit
Ab otters too XD
Crystal Isles and Lost Island are the biggest maps out of all
Oohh, ci is basically a reskin of rag honestly
I got about 3 TB of many (older) games and stuff, removed ESO at one point as it was taking up so much storage, and ark is like 400GB with all DLCs (on steam), couldn’t cater for both ^^
I think gen2 is bigger size wise, not sure on playable space tho :P
Gen 2 is pretty huge
except all the crystal wyverns, lack of normal wyverns, and trope :P sure
@solemn bronze You have my attention now,might just go check that map out later then
Player space on gen 2 is bigger, but it has less biomes
has like 3, 5 if you count the mountains as seperate :P
Rockwell’s innards ads icky.
So many sphincters.
Hmm, it has 5. The innards, Eden, ab zone, space and the underground ocean
Hello all
I think it is but gen2 is so weirdly laid out. and official its a mess
I personally love the much bigger maps,after play The Island for so long and non stop bases in every location,bigger maps are the way to go
wasn't counting innards :P thats just a cave 🤷
Playing*
Agree to disagree lol. It makes a really run base location
can't just look at officials :P
Most of the player base is on unofficial anyways
sounds like PvP talk :P
Lol, I would never build a pvp base on Rockwell innards
Is there much of a difference between official and unofficial servers?
but you would on PvE 😂 why
They aren’t existent during events anyways 😈
Still trying to refresh timers on two for days, once I had actually loaded in, but crashed right away 😂
I like having to fight for a base spot
I did a hardcore run starting out on the dead isle on thenisland
lots of differences. officials seem to have more trouble but unofficials could disappear in a second :P
thats clearly not the only differences 😂 just an example.
@slate widget if they can disappear in a second why start a game there,wouldnt all your progress go to waste?
unofficials are usually customized to whatever the owner wants.
Yup, and if you find a good unofficial, they usually have a better sense of community for PvE, and better rates/recovery for pvp
unofficials are run by people, they might just stop running/paying for it 🤷 its up to them.
Oh okay i get you then so custom servers while the other one is your basic default server?
But the one most accurately describing the most common issues xD
You definitely want to shop around for a good one though, because there are more terrible unofficials than good ones
yeah. officials also seems to start updating faster at least on consoles 
I take pride in running one of the good ones for xbox pve hehe
I just started and we are unofficial. It's nice.
yeah, officials are official, and unofficial is run by random people 🙂
PC official first, consoles 2 hours later. 3rd party get it a few hours after that.
I meant based on platform 🙁
Could you transfer dinos from official to unofficial?
Nope
No
That would be broken jaja
I wound wouldn’t want to rely on an unofficial server admin keeping a map up 😭
What if they quit
unofficial?
Is that not what I said then? official pc gets updates first, then consoles specifically, then the 3rd party unofficial servers after that..
You and your dough typos today 😉
I mean I hope official doesn't quit lol
pretty sure unofficial PC gets it before consoles 
XD
Heee
If official servers ever did imma sue them😂
Nah
you wouldn't get anywhere :P
Even if official ends there will always be unofficials
I know,what am i gonna cry about all my dead dodos😂
Melee capped dodos😂😂that sounds awesome,i heard bobs are pretty dangerous
If it is hosted through a 3rd party server, wouldn't it need to wait until the 3rd party server receives the update?
they get them at different times. why would PC have to wait another day because xbox got delayed :P
or playstation :P
PC also gets more updates than consoles 🤷
I don't mean the PC itself, I mean the server it runs its map on
They onetapped almost everyone
they have different server software. xbox never even gave theirs out.
For example, my xbox receives the update when consoles do but I can't join my unofficial cluster because my servers haven't received them yet.
yeah, why would PC servers have to wait until Xbox servers update is out.
clearly not :P
lol
its all based on platforms 🤷 PC servers don't wait for xbox servers to update or get the update. they get the update before then.
they aren't running the same software so there is no reason to wait :P
Wonder if the 73 hours my server has been down is normal. Hekking annoying.
Seems pretty normal
I understand. But For someone who plays on unofficial PC, where is your server hosted from?
should you rent a server
Iv been on a few unofficial servers with friends and they got the console update and I never they couldn’t get back on the server until nitrado/server owners updated them so I was the only person on server for about 6 hours lol nice easy raids 😂😂😂
haha lucky!! My xbox gets the update but myself and all my members have to wait until Nitrado receives the patch (or in some cases the patch to fix the first patch) before they will release it to the servers for us to join.
there are tons of server hosts on PC. xbox is the only one limited to only nitrado :P
I wouldn't rent one :P I'd host it tho.
Playstation uses it too. And so can PC
Ah okay.
But even then, gportal would be a 3rd party too and still be last to receive the patch though right?
So if your map is hosted on gportal for a PC player, you'd have to wait for gportal to receive the update before being able to join it
?
for that platform. PC server patches would go out before xbox server patches.
I'm not asking for xbox though lol
I was saying in the order the patches are released.
gportal is a 3rd party like nitrado is.
Gor my first set of twins in breeding Allos! Woohoo
yeah, but the xbox patch would release after the xbox update is released, while PC server patches would release after PC servers are released.
they would get them at around the same time, nitrado/gportal/etc. on PC. 
if you mean win10, it uses xbox servers.
idk I'm finding canoe race easy lol
not after hard version just quick stuff for the Helena shop
I got stuck in the canoe race once 😂 when I finished it never teleported me out.
it was back when gen2 first released tho
hexagons that's it
Great place to build a base, no Gigas to chomp on your hopes and dreams there
except when it comes to leaving
and I'm fairly sure it'd be meshing.
don't even think you can build out there 
🤣🤣
Helena: no one's faster then you
me: I'm the only one in my world😂
everytime I build a house, a wyvern shows up , everytime I half way done building a house, a tribemate bob comes and place random structures on my home and make a nest there.
everytime I build a house, an alpha carno comes in a attack it
killed a dilo with the punch thingy and it went on its back
my dilo went belly side up 😂
well I did read it it was a tad complicated to me but also I still wasn't able to locate it so I just started doing a random
I'm still fairly new in Gen 2 as well
oh no not you.. I was talking about the thing about server updates lol
ah I figured about teaching how to do that velonasaur hunt thing😂
Nope! that doesn't bother me. It's easier for me to explain it while I'm actively playing but atm I'm at the computer. If you're still having trouble, you can PM me and I'm about to hop on and can give step by step instructions that way ( I am also on xbox so its easy lol)
nah I just need quick hexagons I find the canoe race fairly easy both versions I played was
only gamma but still
I wanna do the t1 loot crate 😂
or save up and mass buy something needed
I'd say wait to buy the tier 3. better quality stuff in that one and I believe you get more too
I would use the points to get stuff to get a decent giga, use that for the velo mission. It give waaay better stuff
Plus it gives hexagons, so you get t3 crates anyways
Yoooo when i decided to look for a good female rex to use my new top tier kibble on i just discovered a lvl 150 female rex on carno island
usually if you try finding something, it won't come out, but when you are doing other thing, the thing you wanted pop out in the middle of nowhere
Dw, my degenerated giga was 50% melee damage when I tamed my first giga
I cried
Im sad at this rex. But its the only decent female ive seen for a while. Screw it ima tame it with normal prime and save my kibble for a better female
I'm always lurking
I need to remember my male rexes stats when i first seen him.
Can you tame a Basilisk with Crystal Wyvern eggs? Or do they have to be regular
Or does it have to be a crystal basilisk to eat crystal eggs? or is it the same no matter what
i dont think crystal basilisks exist
Regular wyvern eggs
So how is it possible to tame a bailisk on crystal isles when theres no regular wyverns?
cross-server jumping? ragnarok is a free map, albeit a big download
So the only way to tame it is through transfer?
i believe so. normally, it only spawns on aberration or genesis
that stinks, wish there were rockdrakes on this map
wiki says you can also use magmasaur, rock drake, or voidworm eggs instead of wyvern
You can tame them on li with magma eggs
all need to be fertilized though
Where would I find magmas on crystal isles?
If you're using the crystal additions mod I think they're in the volcano, but they don't spawn there naturally
Im on an offical
you have to transfer 🤷 its not the first dino to have been untamable on some maps.
yup yup. transfer
mantis was untamable on every map except scorched until they allowed rhino horns :P
Wish they would allow crystal wyvern eggs, they allow void and regular so it would only make sense
too crunchy
yeah but its got an addicting aftertaste
true
i need fkn friends on this shit >;(
dude, heard
Theyre just a little dustier
i need smalls friends
Use #735196255483068497 for lfg
thank you

im fried just forgot
Youre good
admittedly, i maxxed out taming time, but its pretty much the biggest bar to enjoying ark as much as possible
not so fun to spend an hour taming something and have it die to a sudden troodon
maxxed taming, kibble, one feeding and done
why are most expansions in the form of DLCs, but genesis is on a season pass? Does that mean genesis will become unavailable in the future?
big brain thinking
good if u dont like sickness
if you are sick and transfer to SE it cures it
thats only plus in my opinion i hate dealing w heat in this game
u are complete opposite of me lol
well LFG is always a lost cause in this game stg
has anyone else experienced Reaper Queens on Aberation showing up invisible until you kill them?
Yea, we found that logging out and logging back in fixes it. But if you can, try using a powered tek helmet and see if it'll map her
Where can I get rare flowers?
what map are you on?
It’s a modded map, Olympus
ohhhh. I'm not sure. I'm on xbox. Usual go to would be beaver dams
I think there are flowers(bushes) that give it 
on the ab islands 🤷 not sure what they are called :P bottom left I think 😂
Can someone help me with Simple Spawners?
Or rather lemme just ask straight away. Is there not the ressource you can get from extinction which you get sulfur and gas from?
what is better abirtion or scoched
Aberration* or Scorched Earth*
ya i ment that only
And that depends on who you ask. I prefer Aberration over Scorched Earth
ohh
honestly i never played them
i have the ultimate survivel bundle but only play gen gen2 and extinction
I always try new maps on Single player first in creative mode and explore them freely before committing to going on one on the servers
try crystal isles 😄
ohh
ok
Finally, someone besides me or bob spelled aberration correctly lol
Everywhere I go its “abb” or “abberation”
Got a 150 allo and its stats are pretty average

I forget, is there a trick for getting Wyvern eggs to spawn in? Explored the Scorched trench and there were only three.
Dinowipe
But wyvern spawns (so by extension, egg spawns), are very slow on SE
Ngl 3 sounds like the average amount for scorched
Hmm, did a dinowipe one day earlier. (Empty server, so other players weren't getting eggs.)
Oooh I see
There's a mod that can force them to spawn an egg by shooting them with an egg dart, but not much else you can do in vanilla but be patient and keep the new spawns coming
What water creatures will aggro to a spino
this whole breeding thing is taking forever still lol, but I did just get lucky with three health mutations in a row
I hate hyenadons... why do they exist?
Does anybody here feel that they are an expert at breeding and know the ins and outs of it? I'd like to take a talk to pms since I have a lot of questions and want to learn. Thanks!
is there a way to get S+ on xbox one?
No
😭
mods are steam only
k
Don't know why
It's kinda dumb, hell even Fallout and Skyrim got mod support on xbox
Shocking ark on xbox hasnt got mods yet
Ark why must you anger me like this
what happened
I find a beautiful high top tier female rex with high melee and omega good stam but guess what... when i was making sure it was a good rex i forgot to pause and a sabertooth ran over at me and bit me and by extension THE REX
did it kill the rex? if not you can reset the tame
Luckily it didnt, only knocked the taming effectiveness down to 95%
But i dont have the tranqs for this i need to put spikes around it and go get more tranqs
damn it only lost 5%? i was expecting like a 40% drop
The saber was a low level and it did a drive by bite
nothing in the wild should attack a rex, just fly around it and attack anything small that the rex might of aggro'd when it was awake
I have it trapped so it wont move or go anywhere
btw dont place spike walls directly next to your unconscious dino in a dimorphodon spawn zone, learnt that the hard way.
As said though, i need to put up spikes as a precaution sense alphas spawn at carno island and im worried the alpha will aggro to the metal signs and hit/kill the rex
abberation seems so overwhelming for me
i dont think they'll aggro to the signs, ive had dinos right up close to my base and ignore it
you could also demolish the signs by now considering its already asleep
I want to restart the tame. I want that 5% back
go ahead
Not to mention i got kibble i want to use it to the fullest
well i'd assume that extra 2 levels isnt much of a factor, odds are it'll go into something like food or oxygen
Its got high stam and melee and i want that just in case
stam isnt used much in a rex though.
what level is the rex? 145? 150?
Its a 140 female rex
Stams more of a safety net, but im mostly taming her for her melee which is 235
i found a 270 melee anky pre tame but i didnt tame it.
Bruh, that's epic, why didn't you tame it
literally was going back to base after i tamed a 150 anky (which was worse)
had no more tranqs or kibble.
Talk about a bruh moment
thats not even the most bruh thing that happened.
my iguanodon is stuck at the peak of the saber slalom mountain getting shredded by a theri and microraptors along with all my stuff, and its like -22c up there
Ok got stim berries, tranqs kibble, and my argy, lets try this again
stims dont affect wild unconscious dinos
So i just have to wait... really?
yes
this is the main reason i dont reset my tames
just go do some farming and when its about to wake up, fly over and tranq again so it doesnt despawn.
Oh well, her torpor is already down 25% might as well work on defenses yo protect her
Also when i got to carno island A SWARM OF ARGYS WAS AROUND THE REX AND WERE FIGHTING EVERYTHING AROUND HER AND ALMOST ON HER im not risking anything and im staying close to her until she wakes up
if its unrendered the torpor should be dropping and nothing would be around her.
Not risking it
alright.
Does Stimulant work on dinos? I havent tried that before so just curious
Yes
On wild unconscious dinos?
What do you mean by that
Anyone knows who that runs rockwell alpha?
Ab Rockwell? Or gen1 or Gen2?
What do you mean by that? Like what to bring for Rockwell alpha?
Abb rockwell alpha
The usual strat is to bring spinos or megalosaurus for the dps on the bridge. A crazy shotgun for tentacles, and a rockdrake so you can move
Not asking for stra
No idea what you are asking them lol
Im asking anyone who runs alpha rockwell
Like runs him for element?
You want someone to take you through it?
He doesn't give element lol
Oh right i forgot, ab rockwell is kinda lacking in the rewards department
Yes
Then again, i never actually killed ab Rockwell
What server?
Not for free ofc ik
I can go to any server
Official pvp or PvE?
as long as its PVP official no smalls
Ahh, the you probably want to put in a ltt in #pvp-discussion
No one anwsers there
I would do it but I don't have a char on official any more
I know some trading discords exist, but I can't name them
Everyone knows they exists …
Anyone down to teach me how to make play the game later. Just downloaded it like 5 mins ago
oh my god this roll rat isnt giving me red gems
Big tip for you, stay in the south if youre playing on the island
stay away from ravagers
Ok
spawn fertile lake, the water is your friend.
Not fully
theres this big pillar next to fertile lake, has water and metal. great spot.
Also how do u type in game
If you see a large spider crab, don't stay there
also get an iguanodon as soon as you can, theyre probably one of, if not the best early game dino.
Just listen to me go do note run
Either that or stegos
It takes u 10 min to get to level 60+
stegos are slow though.
Then only u start ur game
They are slow but you cant be pinned off the mount by raptors
If u haven’t do any note runs ignorw everyone here pretty much cuz u won’t beable to do much with low lvl
iguanodon are king, low torpor, bolaable, kibble tier is lower than regular (so no jerky) and their saddle is level 20-30 and crafted in your inventory.
headshot modifiers too, i could go on forever.
True and Farmer he just started the game he doesnt know where notes are...
personally i wouldnt do a note run, in my opinion they ruin the experience.
Go YT
Search Island note runs
EZ
Notes do make it too easy
Yeah u spoiling what creatures is gonna appear in abb also spoil it whats the diff?
?
Teaching him playing a game =spoling it for him
you can spawn in any fertile lake, doesnt matter
As said, if you see a crab run as far away from the water as you can
theres a difference between teaching someone on how to survive and avoid threats and basically telling them to skip the entire early game grind by being level 60+ with several points into speed and weight
No crabs so far
Yeah then u will see drakes everywhere ready to F u up
Being lvl 60 also helping them how to survive?
More health
If theres no crabs then youre all clear to set up
Anbberant raptors are an young now
when did i say it didnt help you to survive? im saying it trivializes almost everything up until mid game.
Killed me 3 times
Another tip, look for light pets, youll know what i mean when you see one
you literally have access to one of the most broken pve tools, flak, climbing picks and glidesuits right off the bat on aberration
Ah yes Ab raptors, i remember them i hate those things
How to I use the typing chat
Xbox right?
If i recall, LB select and start all together
Aberrant Dire bears. Great for honey farming
That dlc is brutal but the start is more friendly then ab
Ok
What other maps you got
Just those two at the moment
I got gamepass so I can get all of them
But my storage isn’t great
Id say just start on the island and work up from there
Alright
Tips for the island, start at the south and build a small settlement, once you have a ptera you can begin exploring the inland but be VERY careful
So a note run
What happens if that giant crab catches me
He can look for notes but for now he should just know the basics first before relying on trying to find notes and possibly get nuked by a dino he accidentally got too close to and the crab will grab you and pretty much instakill you
Crabs are terrifying but very rewarding if you can kill one
Yh I kinda got caught by one
Now he just throwing me up and down
But I’m not taking any damage for some reason
i'd highly recommend genesis part 1
Weird and I... really wouldnt recommend gen 1
Its a good dlc its just not friendly to starter people
its fun, challenging and is different from the original ark formula.
oh yeah just dont start at bog.
Yea the game for some reason says ths bog is the easiest yet its actually not
i was like "oh it wont be too bad" and ive been killed by bullcrap kapros so many times because shields and grapples rarely ever work
Thats the one real thing i hate, the game lies to you
granted the only reason that was so cancerous for me was because im doing a challenge where dinos do double and i do half, so its kinda gg if i get grabbed
I dont get killed by kapros all that much, its mostly hyper aggressive sarcos, raptors and spinos
What is that giant crab called
never had much trouble with sarcos, raptors and spinos, but raptors do rip me to shreds if i dont see em coming, havent died to them though.
Karkinos
Oh ok
you know what is stupid though? i died in the toxic mire once to a random kapro, got back to my sarco eventually but 3 baries and 2 sarcos spawned right on top of it.
What is the best dlc for beginners
Its mostly when i spawn one of those three sees me and i cant get away in time and they slaughter me
best dlc? preference but the easiest is anything but gen 1, scorched and aberration
Hard to say. Gen 2 is good but it kinda spoils you
Spoil as in gives you something thats meant for end game of the other maps
straight up i resorted to using the kapro to kill the kapro in the toxic mire.
Run
Ok
Run as fast as you can
you have anything? lead them away.
Nope
running to base will just make them a bigger issue.
Can anyone please send me a link to items stack ids? The ones u put into the game something something.ini to change the stack size of each item
Judy spawned in
Out of the maps though, aberration is the hardest in terms of starting out
isnt it in pins of bobs with probs
I disagree, i would say scorched is harder
What are the fireflies
theyre useless to you as of early game, theyre a small source of chitin though
Scorched is more chill, there's dangers everywhere but you can atleast find a place to stay unlike ab where literally every corner even the water is not safe.
you can recharge light pets, batteries and get paste with a frog but thats not until later.
I’m just enjoying a stegy and a spino fight
Opposite for me, whenever I start in Ab its usually more chill.
I dont have much issue with the green zone because ravagers and raptors are easy to avoid, and the game gives me climbing picks, glidesuits and flak later which trivializes survival
When im on scorched i often die atleast once but if i can get some stuff i can set up an adobe base in like a day in ark and i can get a decent tame to keep myself safe
couldnt that same argument be made for ab though? I dont see why you couldnt start up and get a stone base up really quickly then get a dino
Not really, with ab you have to build and get a cliff platform before something comes over and screws you over
whats going to kill you in a stone hut.
Its a matter of leaving the stone hut
If youre stuck in the hut you cant get anything done
i dont know about you but i tend to carry bolas for the few times i anger a ravager pack or raptors.
theres a spot near fertile lake thats super open so basically no threats can sneak up to you, and metal is next to you which makes early game supid easy.
small island outside glowtail cave is great for noobies
I often run into the issue of me not having enough bolas and or a crab or spino charging at me without me realizing
ive never even been killed by a spino, theyre so fat that i notice them 10 kilometers away
skill issues
but anyway, once you get an argy or ravager in either map then youve basically won the game already. aside from a few environmental hazards youre invincible if you play your cards right.
True but taming ravagers is honestly terrifying because of it basically being trying to tame smaller allos with their bleed and pack buff
whats up with discord resetting my status 😭
my method is just bolaing them and trapping them in 1x1 boxes.
I lead them into a large box with doorframes around it, meaning i have to lead them myself
i once tamed a high level ravager with wood structures and a club because i was super low level at the time (0.3x xp, 2x dino damage, 0.5x dino resistance), good times.
bola.. that reminds me.. i was trynna tame a lvl 180 parasaur, it took me 4 minutes to knock it down, it was 95% tamed but then a lvl 162 carno comes out of nowhere so i lost it
both ravagers and allos do this weird thing for me that whenever they get trapped, they rarely ever attack back and just run panicking.
Had that happen with 2 allos and a rex today
The typing chat isn’t coming up for me
any good lost island spawn and base location?
What buttons do I have to press again to open it
lb and the overlapping squares iirc
Found it
should be in controls when you pause the game and go into options
hello
Now I can’t close it
press b.
I did
the 3 lines too?
Yep
try typing in something and enter.
It’s fine I restarted my game
Perfect tamed the rex. Lvl 209
stats?
Before tame the melee was 235 and now its 419
zamnnnn
She was originally a lvl 140
Shes probably gonna be my melee stat rex for when i breed and mix stats
isnt that like 41 points into melee, im too lazy to properly calculate it.
Originally it was 27 points into melee
Oh my god...
Its 63 levels into melee
She is definitely my melee rex
But wow. Over 30 points into melee
theres no way thats 63, must of been a miscalculation
I can show you in dms the dododex stats and my rex stats
dododex cant calculate tamed stats, so its inaccurate
tamed and wild stats have different multipliers
True. Whats the best thing for checking things like that?
asb
Either calculate it yourself or ark smart breeder
