got the whole tribe


Look, all I want out of the series is a horror-themed episode
what's the monster? A Reaper? Something from Aberration? amateurs
the monster is the Tickle Chicken, and it terrorizes Bob and everyone else until it is dealt with (tamed) and becomes as much a part of the Family as fast cars and Corona beers
if you have not at some point in your life been severely traumatized by the existence of the Tickle Chicken (even if you're over it now), have you ever even played Ark?
I-i recall all the times the tickle chicken has killed me off my flyer its traumatising to think of to this day and every day I see one I get flashbacks of that exact moment
I swear they purposely walk towards you just to start problems
👍🏻
They dooooooo though on god

this is more like it!


not at all!




I wanna know how they're gonna fit Raya and John's stories into the series, given the series covers the whole story
Because their stories are seperate from Helenas and rockwells stories in scorched
but its a whole other story arc
maybe they could get a spinoff or something
well yeah thats a given
lets say season one is the island
is season 2 all of scorched or do they split up scorched in 2 seasons to cover each story arcs, story arc 1 being John and Raya, story ark 2 being Rockwell and Helena. Or would it be one season starting with John and Raya and then halfway in it transitions to Helena and Rockwell.
praise bob

Holy shit Scrooge McDuck is voicing Rockwell
We do not know yet
Wait is it out yet? Where do i watch it
No
🇳 🇪 🇷 🇫 
let’s go bois
Is the animating studio the same as avatars or was that false information
Character I want to see in the series:
Peli Motto from The Mandalorian but with Dodos instead of pit droids
It’s not the same studio
💪

bob is too powerful please nerf
You can't
He's unnerfable
Too smart to be removed from the code, the first truly sentient AI
We are at his mercy
When will it be released
Bob is a real homo deus. He is too far beyond our understanding for us to stand a chance.
What have i walked into
No one knows
Im going back to general





Where can a watch ark animated cause it’s not on YouTube or Netflix
Isnt out yet.
2022
Yeah unless it gets delayed which I have hope will not happen
Because if it was going to it would of happened by now
I think they last said that they were in post production phase
It’s been more than a year since I’ve logged in, and it’s been a year of massive upheavals, some wonderful and some terrible, but with everything going on in the world, I wanted to share one story that has always been a source of joy for me. 💖
(thread has some comments from the lead writer on the show about representation and also reveals a new musical sequence too)
One of the themes for Helena Walker, a 21st century paleontologist who is awakened on the ARK, connecting to the theme for Victoria Walker, Helena's wife in her past life.
Is such a beautiful piece of music
Can we pin these? Sorry for ping!
Praise bob
where bob theme
Praise Bob
Yoo
I'm a bit confused.
If either person on each side of the picture is Helena. Then she looks pretty different then what she looked like in the other images.
Did y'all redesign her, or am i looking too far into this?
Wtf I thought this show already came out
I am confused
Does Helena have gray hair or has glasses now?
Or she just looks different at that point in time
I thought that.
But i'm confused on the glasses
Just a style change I guess lol
Those look more like medical glasses then fashion glasses.
I’m sure it will be explained in the show, I don’t think she will just randomly have glasses on day lol
And if she does it wouldn’t be a big deal
I love the art style for the show tho
Never said it's a big deal.
Was just confused, cause Helena looks a lot different with that hairstyle and glasses that i got confused for a second
Tbh it reminds me of Avatar, the Korra one
Legend of Korra?
Yep
legend of joe
You gotta remember that she probably isn't gonna look the same after waking up on an island and being forced to make her own clothing lmao
I know.
But the glasses are throwing me off.
Could just be looking to far into this.
But they look prescribed.
And if that's the case, if Helena is pretty legally blind. How's she going to survive on an Island with prehistoric creatures without her glasses?
Good question. If they are prescribed that would at least make it clear why she doesn't have them on the island, since she probably wouldn't have the knowledge to replicate her exact prescription out of like I don't know, crystal or something. Which makes me wonder where Rockwell got his glasses from. Like he wouldn't have spawned with them. Also Helena might just have slightly worse vision without glasses but not bad enough that she has to wear them all the time.
Trailer had no glasses, I know some people who wear glasses to see better but don't necessarily need them to see good-ish
True, she could simply have like 18/20 vision, but needs that extra 2 then she can get 20/20.
Exactly.
Mhm
Still though, where in the hell did Rockwell get his glasses from lmao - are they even the right prescription? Does he just wear two chunks of crystal on his face at all times despite them having literally no effect on his vision? I need answers
Maybe there's a doctor on the Island?
Maybe being a scientist he remembers the details
Possibly
If there is, they need to appear in the animated series haha
It'll be really cool to see more survivors taking on different roles in the tribes and societies formed
Imagine tribes where we see people from different ages interact with eachother
That generally seems to be what all the tribes on the island are like in the lore
so I expect we will see that
Yes, something from not just a personal view of the characters
Also, we use crystal for glass and stuff but theres probably nothing stopping Rockwell from grabbing some sand and using a fabricator, if they had that kind of technology
True, he should be more that capable of making some actual glass. I just said crystal because that's what we use as glass in game.
I doubt the one with glasses is Helena
but her being grey hair is a possibility that she died of natural causes
She doesn't have grey hair though
and also if Helena does need glasses, Rockwell would've given her glasses along with Athena
But people will when they get older
Yes, but she isn't old in that picture so why do you keep mentioning her having grey hair?
Left character
Also we know for a fact that that is Helena since the image is being used as a visual to go along with the theme music for Helena and her wife.
I know
The character on the left has black hair with parts of it dyed blue, it only looks slightly grey in that image because of the lighting.
You said "I doubt the one with glasses is Helena", but then when I tell you that that is Helena with glasses in the image, you suddenly already know

I know the image is Helena's and her wife but I don't know which one is Helena
(See my first question)
Helena is the one on the right. She literally just tied her hack back and put glasses on. The one on the left which looks nothing like Helena is her wife.
bob nerf when
Never
Cant wait to hear david Tennant play another insane scientist from another time line
When was the last time he played as an insane scentist?
Id argue Dr Who
.....
The Doctor isn't a scientist..
Well, there's a actually reasoning why he's called 'the doctor'
Engineering.
He's more of an engineer then a scientist.
If it happened after matt smith it not cannon 😀
Ayo, the fuck is wrong with Peter?
He was great. The writing was not.
The writing was just fine.
The ending of his doctor was perfect to me.
Felt like the series should've ended with him.
it should have to be honest, the new episodes are trash
Yeah lemme just throw 60 YEARS OF LORE OUT THE WINDOW
12th Doctor might of not had the best story, but at least it was consistent and felt like it 'could' be part of the universe (cause it was)
But the 13th Doctor's story was just 'bad'
I feel bad for Jodie.
In all honesty no doctor will ever be as good and crazy as david was
Hmm yes.
Lets disgrace the first ever actor of the Doctor by saying 'this isn't the first doctor canonically' even though the concept of regeneration was made CAUSE of the actor passing away soon at the time.
Controversial opinion.
10 was great. But his story was lackluster a lot of the time.
Wasn't till the library and the last few episodes where it got good
Ok but he had some of the best stand alone episodes. My INTRODUCTION to doctor who was "dont blink." Just the thought gives me the shivers
I jumped a good 2 feet in the air when i first saw it lol
Yeah.
At the time of recording the last episode of his Doctor, they got the idea of "he's an alien, right? Why not add more alien rules to their species and they can come back x-amount of times, but each time they look different"
The actor liked the idea, cause he wanted the show to continue after he was gone.
Was introduced with the 9th doctor.
Honestly, underrated.
Yeah, he was good but super underrated
killed some alpha raptors and got Nedry's glasses. easy
*dilos
oh it is dilos. derp
"get ready for something special"
....
gets ready even more intensely
/hj
Wrong chat bubs
Whats the likelihood that ark animated releases this year?
Because Ark 2 was set to release this year as well but its been postponed
Pretty high cause I think if it was going to be delayed then it would of happened by now you would think
yeah thats true
And they are in post production I think
so is most of the animation and voice acting done then?
Think so
they said they have 14 episodes in post production, and that would mean those 14 are being wrapped up and edited, so i believe so
production in animation would be voice acting and most of the animation work IIRC.
post production is editing, foley, etc
Ya, Helena is the one with glasses (she wears them whilst reading/writing in a different timeline) and Victoria is the one with the blue dyed streak in her hair.
Different timeline?👀 Did you mean in a past life? Or is the multiverse/multiple timelines being confirmed? Jk lol
lol
gotta be very careful what you say to fans of games/shows/movies. "water is in the thing, yes"
"radioactive lungfish man confirmed!!!!"
Dollie just confirmed a human/Aberrant Shadowmane hybrid is gonna be in the animated series
😛
Praise Bob
Is animated gonna be on Netflix?
All info we have is in the pins
Imagine it is on steam
The animated series? I doubt it will be on Steam
1
I mean you can buy shows and movies on steam like with iTunes
They got some weird shit on steam
Could be looking too far into this. But does this mean the Animated-Series is within its own timeline?
Different timeline?
Yeah I don’t think the show was gonna go through all the events and path the notes did
Which is what I was hoping for but if they can do something better then so be it.
I just want to see aberration atleast
basically an AU
Oof
Ark “what if…”series should happen



bob is literally the 2D gigachad

Praise Bob



Dadbob 

Dabob


We love Bob
Praise Bob

I would love a 3-episode miniseries that's an Aberration prequel based on what the #lore-nerdz are talking about with the ||Tek Nuke||

Maybe they'll add flashbacks
I totally forgot about the series
I thought it was already out
I think they aren't going to make it
He has upgraded to the whole picture
He ascended to become a sticker
Do the changes in lore within the animated series affect other lore of the Ark franchise? Like Ark 1 and 2? o.O
Depends if the Switch Cinematics Update might change ARK 1's lore, and that is my biggest worry
You don't think there is room for improvement?
There is room for improvement but it is understandable that there is also some concern considering we don't know the full extent of changes being made yet. I'm confident it will turn out good though.
As am I, I have hope that the changes will only strengthen the lore and add new cool things
I don’t understand what the switch cinematic has to do with the ark animated series changing ark 1 and 2s lore
It might be changing/adding new lore that is in line with the lore of the show
Which is fine imo as long as it's done tastefully and without retconning anything too hard
Uh oh I used retcon, here comes Bootleg 🤣
'Sniff' 'Sniff'
I heard the word 'retcon' 👀
And with that smell, i get a taste of 'Santiago' in my mouth
Differs if the show is good or not lore-wise, if the changes will be also good or bad. (not saying the show will be bad. But i think it's the possibility of it being so and 'if' the changes are to connect it to the show, may be why some people are worried about the changes.)
Isn’t it in a different timeline?
That was what they said back in 2020.
It could still be the same, or they could've changed their minds in those two years.
This was yesterday lol
Possibly an AU, but it still stands to reason that some are scared when there's a chance all the lore they worked hard to figure out could be changed completely (which it won't, let's be real)
He means the 2020 reveal of the show
Or 2019 technically
Yeah why would they change the lore unless it was a obvious overall improvement with no plot holes
From how Dollie wrote that. That more seems like different timeline as in 'Helena being from a different timeframe'
Wait it was revealed in 2019
2020
Still, Holy it felt like a few months ago
In the game-awards
Well not a few months but definitely not 2 years, damn
Thought it was 2019 game awards?
I remember waking up from a nap at like 9pm having no idea what was happening and I just see ark 2 all over my feeds
Thought I was dreaming
Nope, 2020
If it was 2019, it'd be nearly 3 years
That's wild
You can check if you look up the original ARK-2 trailer.
Cause they showed them off both at the same time
Yeah I just looked
I mean if they did go 100% accurate to the notes would it really be fun to know everything that’s going to happen
I’d say it would be best if they went like 70% accurate with little changes
I doubt they're going 100%
Yes, but also I get what you mean. If they stuck to the notes, fans would say it's boring. If they verge too far, it becomes what every other piece of video game media is, shitty (lookin at you, Halo tv show 🤬 )
Even the MCU didn't go 100%
Cause the source material just wasn't movie material, nor interesting in the sense of a general plot and overarching story.
I can see the same with TAS
The people that made the halo TV show didn’t even play the games
Or take any inspiration from them which is wild
The games aren't even the issue.
It's the books
They just never bothered with 'any' source material then what the general public knows, or some people where able to slip in that actually cared for the project.
I heard the fight scenes were decent atleast
Yeah, they didn't do enough research and in interviews tried to say they did with some word salads meant to confuse
The first 3 episodes weren't bad.
But it went downhill from there.....
The only canon thing I like from that show is Soren, and he's not even crippled like he is in the book
If they went with the first three episodes and went from there and tried to improve the stuff, then it actually would've been decent. And a season-2 would've made me look forward to the other possible improvements.
The one thing that just absolutely pissed me off, was the fact that a human member was part of the covenant.
That was also the adopted daughters of the prophets.....
Yeah that made no sense
What?
My issue wasn't that a human was adopted by the covenant.
Would've made an interesting plot point if a member, like a elite or unggoy adopted them and tried to keep them as a secret.
But to the prophets that (at least in main-canon) know that humans are related/connected to the forerunners, the same species their whole empire worships. And the moment if this gets out, their whole religion would crumble?
The sole individuals responsible for the pursued utter annihilation of humanity adopted a human
Not unheard of to be fair.
Romans used to adopt the stronger children after killing everyone in a village, or kingdom.
In the context of Halo quite unheard of
Would make a lot more sense in this context instead.
The Prophets straight up told the Sangheili no when they asked why the humans couldn’t join, which even pissed some of them off.
Cause it was clear from Halo-2, that not 'everyone' in the covenant cared about the Great-Journey.
Or members that did, but didn't allow that to overshadow their morality or honor.
It also invalidates like half the lore, why not have her unlock all the forerunner structures? Where was she when Halo Wars took place, she could have opened the vault and the game wouldn't have happened
Whens it coming out
Yep.
So it would make sense if something like an Elite had that character adopted, but in secret from the rest of the covenant.
But not the fucking main 3 cheese bois.
'True!'
Does Harvest not even exist in this universe?
Right lol
Cause Harvest was a 'big' part of the universe.
It was the first planet that the covenant made a full scale invasion of.
And where the two chads characters where fighting on.
Aka, Captain-Cutter and Sergeant Forge
I mean we know that the outer rim had small forces of covenant probe their defenses and such and it be covered up by ONI several times (like in the first few episodes) but yeah where tf is Harvest
Like, honestly.
The show should've just focused on the Harvest invasion.
A recreation of the Harvest book would've been badass
Praise Bob

So, I had a weird discovery.
Aberration-Extinction Santiago has a different last name than Genesis-Santiago. Genesis-Santiago has been through the war up until nearing the end of it, has a different last name and a daughter. Ab-Exiago hasn't even seen the war, has a different last name and no mention of Meeka.
Meeka is still pretty young in the ARK 2 trailers, I'd estimate somewhere between 12-14, maybe. I've forgotten how long the Element Wars lasted, but that seems like enough time for Santiago to get a wife (last name change) and have a child. (Meeka)
Therefore it is my theory that in ARK 2 Santiago will talk, or at least hint (he seems a bit dodgy on the events of Genesis 2 to Meeka) about the war in whatever form of story he gives us. And in that lore he'll bring up not necessarily his wife, but Meeka and how she came to be.
.. hopefully.
i doubt Meeka is Vin's biological (?) daughter but rather adoptive daughter because in Gen 2 notes he has a friend with a family
it makes sense for Vin to be more overly protective if it's his friend's daughter due to a vow
if this theory is wrong then we got ourselves a new plothole added to our already existing plot cheese
Whats more ferocious than the planet at our necks all the time.
Family
Cheese.
Is the animated series still coming out this year or is it also delayed to 2023
All we know is in the pins
They said its in the post production phase so most likely later this year




Ok why is there like a bunch of Bobs?
Bob 
Was for a chain but I think its over now

no
🅱️ 🇪 🇦 🇨 🇭 
I’ve heard rumors of HBO max but idk
Yeah same

Just here waiting for a new Ark the animated series trailer
It will come out the day after the show does👍
Anything else? Why not Netflix

I can’t see it being on Netflix
i can, knowing Netflix has more reach than most streaming sites
most people outside of western countries don't even know what HBO Max or Amazon Prime is
Netflix is the most popular
Netflix has also plummeted massively
Netflix is pretty much only holding on to their big name shows at this point
Because they're trying to make people not share subscriptions with their family members and friends, which has backfired
They could easily have recouped the money lost there by just not doing stupid shit, like the live action Cowboy Bebop
Or spending 7 mil per episode on Stranger Things which, while I love, is not a 7 mil per episode production imo
even with that drama, people only know netflix here aside from asia-specific streaming sites and Disney +
So no hulu? That's not a thing over there? Or at least not a big one
bro r u stupid
No, are you?
Stranger things literally took over all social media for a week or two when season 4 dropped
obviously its gonna have a very high budget,its one of the biggest modern shows out there
Ok, and? It didn't need that big a budget, trust me. It would have been just as cool and just as popular with a lesser budget than that, easily
Lmao why does it matter
it still number one on netflix and has been for 2 weeks alr
idk why the budget matters so much to you cause its gonna make at least 10x that so
7 mil per episode is a lot, you might not see it but that's more than most movie's budgets, and that's per episode
Netflix likes to throw money at something if it they think it's good.
dude no most movies budgets are 50-100 mil
just cause you dont like it dont mean other people dont
one of the highest rated and most popular shows out there
Also the episodes in the fourth season were all like 1-2 hours long so obv its gonna need a big budget
and its the finale
I literally stated I love the show lmao, are you daft? Also, the whole reason the conversation was brought up was because Netflix likes to waste money when it isn't necessary
I never watched stranger things
same
it is neccesary tho
It's good, you should watch it
literally go up and read
I feel like their is too much for me to get caught up on at this point, and I know a lot that happens even tho I don’t watch it so no point really
a show on its final season will need a budget,especially with a big name like stranger things and with lots of cgi
If you like horror and/or the 80's, you'll like it @grizzled sand
50 million is nothing compared to what theyre gonna get
I rather be alive in the 80s then now lmao
4 isn't the final season, and they leaned into the practical effects this season pretty hard compared to previous seasons (but the vfx were good too)
Same lol love the 80s
I don't know man.
The 80s seem pretty shit. Even compared to now.
U wouldn't make it everyone is homophobic then
You guys are thinking too far into what we said
For real like tf
Nah, we're thinking 'juuuuust' right. 
If anything. I'd rather live in Unga-Bunga age.
as long as youre white youre all set
Than shut ur goofy ass up about wanting to live in the 80s
The Cold-War was still a worry
🗿🗿🗿
I-i...i more meant the 'nuclear thing'
But i guess that works also?
huh
tell me if you were black living in mississipi do you think you would have a good time in the 80s
You asking me?
yeah
A small statement turned into the dumbest conversation ever
Can we not go down this route?
No, i don't think you would.
But what does that have to do with the constant threats of nuking each other?
really dumb
sure
I just wanted to point out how horrible the 80s is, still compared to now a days to fuck with y'all, since i know Bruising thinks better of me.
I have 'NO' idea what MagicalL is going with though. 
Js the 80s is way worse than today
What I mean when I say that is I wish my friends would go outside instead of p h o n e
get new friends
Then.....go outside?
What's stopping you?
There’s not a ton to do outside alone other then walk which I already do sometimes
Then what's the issue?
get a skateboard
You guys just went to far into the 80s comment for no reason
This is so off topic 🤦♂️
I don't know about MagicaL. But i have my reasonings.
This basically happens to every channel now, until a mod comes in and checks on us.
Then 5 minutes later, we go off topic again.
A habit of having a conversation.
I mean id rather not get lynched and stuff but yk
anyways bob


lol that was an off topic convo
anyways, im so hyped for Mei Lin
Shes my fav ark xharacter and her VA is most likely going to do a great job
also i believe shes gay so representation 🪱🪱🪱
no
yes

It's like 'only monika'
But instead of a wannabe virus. You're getting the 'Chad-Virus'
Not only does this virus act as a VPN and protects you from 'other' viruses. But he also changes all of your icons into 'bob'
If Dollie posted a sticker, then that means she's encouraging it. 
Its the greatest thing ever
You can never go too far
i dont know if shes used it, but i photoshopped and added it
Some say my pfp went too far.
I say "i haven't even gone my full potential of cursed ARK shit yet."
i still dont get it, do you have to have watched jojo?
I think she used the bob emoji
Nvm then she's used both lol
She encourages it. 👀
she did ask for the emoji bob lol
Wait I just noticed his pfp now that you've mentioned jojo
Its brilliant 
Yes, you unleashed Bob XD
Kind of.
Basically, the antagonists of the second Arc are buffed nearly-naked Egyptian men.
They make a lot of poses throughout the Arc, but the one i used for reference is their most popular.
It is more or less a inside community joke. But basically, everyone likes the Pillar-men not cause they're good villains. But cause how overexaggerated body, acting, needing to describe literally everything, and more.
I need to draw Bob and need to make that in a sticker as well XD
if you did supersaiyan poses i would have got it lol
The thing that's cursed is just the idea of a ARK and JoJo crossover.
Two completely different things referencing each other.
That and......i fear buff men.
Especially 'three' buff men doing poses before they woop my ass.
'True'
That may be next. 👀
As of right now though, i need to figure out my bullshit issues of 'what's going on with my external hard-drive?' since it's having issues.
Then i need to get back to working on my project, that i haven't been able to do for a few days......cause of said issue.
I need to go get a bigger SSD, was meant to a few weeks ago but didnt get around to it
I actually started the "Only Bob" bit before the sticker exist





Joe mama
I can't wait for it to come out


Lettuce

So, i just realized something.
So, you know how the cover-art girl is Helena?
I wonder, in the post early-access keyart for ARK, if the guy on the tek-saddle rex that's fully decked out in tek-gear with a rail-gun like weapon, is Santiago.
(at least in the Animated series universe)


Bobs all the way down.
Suiiiiiiii
Is the animated series out..?
no, but all 14 episodes are now in post-production
Neat

Bob
o
b
Praise Bob
I feel like this bob chain will go on until the animated series will come out
Or it’ll just keep on going until the end of time
Do we know how long the episodes will be
Hopefully 45-ish minutes, and not super short like TLOVM was
They said 14 episodes with each being around 30 mins
Atleast I think
Yes, it is in the wiki in the pinned messages here
Where is ark animated found?
Its not out yet
Rumors are hbo max but nothing confirmed

i cant wait for the scene where bob is surrounded hostiles then says "it's bobin time" and completely bobs everyone

We can probably stop spamming the sticker and emotes now.
We only praise the most accurate character in the series
Praise Bob
They should make a channel for Bob worship, because I don't think it can ever truly be stopped.
Until we have more news, this is our Bob Shrine
aww are they removing the bob stickers
I look into here after 5 years of never looking in here and now they're worshipping me
it's the greatest thing ever!
XD
don't worry, I'll use my bob powers to give us back the stickers
according to my bob powers, you can post the sticker as long as you aren't spamming it
so let's spam the chat with actual, regular talking sprinkled with the occasional bob sticker so it doesn't count as spam

You’d probably get away with it in general
We want this chat nice clean and on topic
🙏
don't worry I'm only here for 5 seconds before I leave again for the next 5 years
please
but I have to meet my worshippers sometime
can't have them losing faith
We got ark 2 news but no anime info wtf wildcard
The announcements priority is more rigged than PokerStars.gg
We will get the carcha info before anime info
i almost forgot about the carcha

It's still 3:2 with fantasy creatures vs dinos
We can put a gun on it will be it's special ability
dinopithecus 2.0 if you know you know
We are getting lazy with abilities
Fenrir- reskinned dire wolf with ice powers
Fjordhawk- keep you stuff when you die
Andrewsarchus- G U N
Desmodus- bat that can suck blood
All good but not creative
I-
I think a hawk that grabs your items and teleports to you isn’t exactly un-creative
When I think hawk I don’t think “steals items”
No but the ability itself isn't creative
What would you say is a creative idea for the hawk?
Idfk
I don't think about a gun when I think andrewsarchus but "you can put a gun on it" its an uncreative ability
Ok but which other creature do you think could do that?
First answer for me would be a hawk
None
The idea of keeping your stuff when you die in a survival game is super basic
I thick they should hire Nedthenoodle to help with animated series
...
What abilities would you give the new creatures? 🙂
Wait, I have been baited into off-topic in the Animated Series channel... NooOoOoOO

ah yes give abilities to animated dinosaurs
I mean Andrewsarchus can also travel the bottom of the ocean and let you breathe down there
there is no andrew in the animated series
how do you know one of the students wasn't named Andrew?
the students are confrimed not to have an "andrew"
source?
tfw they take it too seriously

To be fair, Fenrir wasn't made by WildCard and the other three all suffer from the whole "how do we make this prehistoric animal have more unique abilities without making it literally magical". Like all of their abilities make at least some sense. Desmodus is a big vampire bat so it drinks blood. The Fjordhawk can grab stuff and return it to the player (sure it can carry more that it realistically should and can travel really quickly but that is for gameplay purposes and it is a fictional species anyway). Andrewsarchus largely acts how you'd expect with bites and kicks and relies on a saddle to shoot stuff.
Compare that to the Daeodon which can magically heal other creatures by eating, which is mentioned in the dossier but never explained as to how it works lore wise. Sure, these abilities are technically less creative but they make way more sense.
they removed Bob... boooo we want Bob
noooooooo
not Bob, he didn't deserve it!

It'll be added back every now and then for fun, but for now, channel can be back on topic please.
Ah, so it's a seasonal thing
The moment we see bob in the stickers.
We know what to do.
'Bobapoclypse'

Bob should return when the animated series releases, then should disappear for a bit and reappear with ARK 2. That way if they turn out well we can celebrate with Bob.



Please do not spam the emote either.
In all honesty, what do we have to talk about? We didn't get even a teaser at the Xbox showcase for the show, just a poster after the fact. Asking seriously not to argue or anything
I'm not a big fan of discord stickers overall lol, they are large and easily spammed (we have gifs disabled for the same reason)
From time to time we will add temporary stickers though such as the Positive vibes one during extra life (now an emoji) and the Bob one.
Yes there isn't much to talk about with the animated series yet, but you can spam Animated Series emojis a bit in this channel, occasionally, but if it gets out of control the mods will step in, but not too quickly so you can have a little fun with them 🙂
Permission to spam emojis???? /j
I gotcha, just wish we had something to talk about, like a synopsis of an episode or something, ya know? Even just the platform it's on
Mods are msot likely to step in when people spam while folks are trying to talk
The conversations take priority.




We really need a new trailer for the animated series

Since respawning isn't a thing when this is set, is Bob just going to have infinite plot armour?
... Who's gonna tell em?
Uh...
If you don't point out stupidity, I stay stupid forever...
Bob dies the episode he’s introduced
My life has ended.
Wait really…?
How can I watch the ark animated series
Don't know and no i imagine the only nods they'll have to the game is comedic relief moments with our saviour Bob


how do you know
I think he was joking






Wow, okay, I thought this was common knowledge at this point

Bob is an obvious stand-in for the player, as the original name for your survivor (in the text field in Ark 1) was Bob, meaning that the character and his adventures will likely take place long after the rest of the show, possibly in a he-finds-the-notes-and-triggers-an-in-show-flashback-to-the-events kind of way
I don’t think so
All signs show Helena being main character but I mean maybe it’s all been bob the whole time
He's not the main character per-se, I never said that
Just that he's probably happening long after everyone else, since he is 100% the player character
No
Isn’t the show a alternate timeline, we don’t really know what will happen
The player is the player
Unsure, they've worded it very strangely but either way Bob is a stand-in for us
I’m not saying he will have lots of references to things players do I just do not believe him to play the role the player does in the games story
Do you have inside info on bob
I kinda want them to follow the same story the game did, and not just some new random story
Well it seems to have the same characters
A dollie said notes enjoyers shouldn’t be too displeased with it


What the bob doin 

@Spartan0730035512 @Ares2032 @richtwofen4267 @BruisingPikmin4524
Which means there still can be a bunch of things we can be displeased with. Allready some design choices make Note people displeased.
That's code for "people who did lore in the game will be furious and people who speak In discord (such as the people I semi pinged) will have to fight off waves of anime only ark lore people"
why would there need to be fighting
People can enjoy the game lore and not the series lore, or vice versa, or both, or neither, all of these are acceptable options
Yeah I can't say my point properly lol I'd have to have someone else explain
It's more of the case of "is this the ARK story we are familiar with?" or "our time people dedicated theory crafting and solving, all we get is nothing similar to we used to know"
That is why people who are fans of Halo for example massively dislike the recent Halo live series
Its okay if people dont like something, or like different things, doesnt need to result in fights though. Which was what i commented on 🙂
Sure it looks like Halo but the story doesn't feel like Halo
There is a reason why most video game inspired movies and shows are most of the time flopped thus the term "video game curse" is made
We just don't want ARK be the victim of such "curse"
"fight" is a strong word used , more like heated debates
i agree, wasn't my word, you jumped into a different conversation lol
why they need to be heated is also absurd though tbh lol
That is the internet for you
But I am still stand by the original and the preservation of the stories we are all familiar with
That is also my concern with the whole "cutscenes" update that might change the original lore in favor of whatever retconning and revisions that the anime has to offer
But you guys will try not to let it go that way while expressing your varied opinions aye? 🙂
Nah we are standing our ground
We don't want ARK end up like Halo or worse Super Mario Brothers (live action movie)
You can do that without fighting and hostility. I'm sure you'll try your best 🙂
Internet discourse is not always end up in civility
#general proved the point
But we are not "fighting" like you claimed
We are voicing our displeasure of the changes that are drastic and away from the familiar
like i said, wasn't my word, and again, you jumped into a different conversation lol
🤷♂️
everyone is responsible for their own words, if we want people to be kinder and more tolerant of differences on the internet then we need to do our part by choosing our own words more carefully. But anyways, not sure my point is getting through lol, will leave you to it.
Im damn excited for this series kinda bias since there are soo many kiwi actors in ti

Hell yea!! Love seeing fellow Kiwis getting involved in ARK.

Yeah it would be annoying but the show will probably be good regardless if it’s the same story or not
I want something familiar to the notes too but if it’s not even close then it doesn’t mean it will be bad or something
We are very concerned when Helena and Mei swapped traits
If Helena has the "will to fight" and "actually a lesbian" trait, what would make Mei, a token asian?
Helena in the notes is the curious exploratory type ala Ash Katchem from the first Pokemon episode, and I actually love her vibe
Those traits will not fit Mei like Mei's traits will not fit Helena's
Yea
I agree with that
If you aren’t keeping to 100% the story at least keep the characters accurate

Add verified tick if you think @quick heath should help with ark animated
sure. wildcard hire me
im making the survival stories as we speak

That’s what I’m saying you beat them to it lol
We don’t even know if it’s gonna follow the same story
It's already been confirmed to follow the same 'gist' of the story.
lol
feat. Vin Diesel as Vin Diesel
?
Oh ok then lol

I feel like vin diesel should’ve been bob
Would be difficult to have bob as the main story character in ARK 2 though (Vins role as Santiago). Since Bob likely represents all the player characters, and so probably is the most difficult to tie down into a set storyline that relates to or matches game lore.


This is why i hope ARK-2 leaves it open if we're the same survivor or not.
But don't expand too much on it besides that.
I personally don't like it when writers make a empty shell of a character in a previous title have a canon story/rought in the sequel.

Praise Bob
when does this come out?
Sometime this year

Been watching the vids bro theyre really well done mah man!!!
Thanks mate, next week will be exciting 😉
Hey man, been watching your videos also.
You probably don't know who i am though.
sounds familiar.. i feel like you would be good at body acting sir edmund rockwell, the character from ark survival evolved on steam
Hmm.
I don't know man, i've never acted before.
Could give it a try though.
This is not suspicious at all
Hmm

Hmmm

Uh yeah what even is a noodle
I have no fucking idea what a 'oodl' is
NOOOoooo
Oh that was weird
is ark animated based on ark 1 or ark 2
Ded chat💀
Ark 1
oooh nice

Cause, he is about to
Because bob is bob
Bob is king of the beach
Bob is the master of dodo and dilo
All the beasts obey bob

naw bob just secretly act dumb so the server mods dont ban him for growing massive farms of narco
Exactly, bob is always ten steps ahead
Bob secretly has more control over the ark than the overseer

Do the Ed for us ^^
Holy fudgesickle!!!!! @quick heath you are on here???? Wtf.... dude!!! Absolutely love your content, you are a master. I tell everyone I know who listens to watch your vids.... all hail Sir Noodle!!!! 🤘😁
Jamie on his 15 miniute paint break
Yeah somehow XD
Ed?
Who's Ed?
Edmund ^^
Ah yes.
Rockwell's real name is 'Ed'
Ed, Edd, and Edmund
You forgot Eddi
No, all hail bob

if Rockwell bonked his head after being ascended to SE, he becomes "Ed", the disciple of Bob
Lol
if Bob gets too smart, he becomes Robert
From beach Bob to archipelago Robert
Bob is superior
From Beach Bob to Coastal Robert


For the word of Bob is right and true
I wait for Bob, my soul waits, and in his word my whole being waits
Every word of Bob is flawless; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him.

"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares Bob, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
did they remove the Bob sticker?
They forsook Bob and will face His wrath at the respawn screen











Does anyone have their favourite notes or other points from the lore that they hope to see in the Animated Series?
Rockwells transformation from abberation
sorry nerva, you're now a crispy corpse
Pre-destroyed aberration and up to the point where it gets nuked
Aberration best notes by far just include all of ab👍
Im not involved in making the series lol, but its interesting conversation, and those that are involved do read through here sometimes 
Yeah I know your not I was just messing around lol
What tames from the notes do you guys want to see too?
spino 
I want to see taming of the giga 
Animated Rock drake or reaper
When it comes to normal Dino’s prob a purlovia being killed or something (I hate them very much)
