    Structures Plus (S+) stops development and will release source code.

    Posted: 01 Mar 2019 04:05 AM PST

    Today I took my committee of mutated vultures and solo’d the ice queen. All 24 vultures have 5k hp+ and 500+melee. It took less than 30min and was so much fun!

    Short Story about a new player in Ark

    Posted: 01 Mar 2019 07:45 AM PST

    Please enjoy my little story!

    The soft hiss slipped through the thin, wooden door that seperated me from darkness and terror that crept on the otherside. I couldn't tell if the sound was closer or further, a warning or a summon, or worse, a call to hunt. I held my breath and almost choked on the smoke from my exstinghushed fire and wished the sound away, hoping it would pass by my flismy walls.

    I first awoke in the dawn, looking out over a warm, inviting beach. My arm ached, almost as if I had been stung by some insect. It wasn't a bite on my wrist but something, something unnatural that shot what felt like small waves of electricity up my arm. It didn't hurt, not really, but I couldn't ignore its constant pulse almost like a whisper running up the nerves of my arm and winding all the way through me. I wanted to dig it out of my arm but every time I tried I couldn't bring myself to do it. I think it stopped me. I think it guides me.

    On the first morning I saw wonders. I saw beasts, beasts from other eras, other centuries, other eons all walking together under massive black stones that hang in the sky. I know all these animals names but when I reach for my own, I find nothing there. I can only find my first dawn on the beach.

    The first animals I saw were peaceful but I knew there was danger in the shadows of the trees. I had to protect myself, hide myself from the monsters that would come. I felt the electric pulse from my wrist strengthen and stir me to pick up anything and everything in reach. Stones, fibers, plants, and sticks, I horded them all and desperately tried to make anything that would save me. I crafted things for the first time with the ease of an experienced hand, with swiftness and presicion. It was all so unnatural, this skill, but I didn't care. I clothed myself, armed myself, I even slew a few of the little harmless creatures wandering the beach in the hope to better save myself.

    Finally feeling prepared, I began to follow the curve of the beach to look for a cave or indent I could wall up as shelter for the night.

    I found something. I found ruins.

    Humans lived here. The shabby stone walls looked nothing like the perfectly shaped monoliths that watched me from above. This was the work of hands like mine. The jungle had worked quickly to reclaim the chisled stone and cut wood. I could not tell if just a few months had passed or possibly a few years. Who could tell in this world of instant knowledge but no memories?

    When I first saw the ruins, I felt a wave of relief so overwhelming I almost fell to my knees. I hadn't realized I was lonely or how much I longed to see a face or hear a human voice. I can't recall if I ever have before, but in that moment I was desperate for it. To see someone, anyone was a feeling stronger than hunger, thirst, or fear.

    But then I remembered. This is an land filled with predators. Had a found the remains of a sanctuary or a predator's ruined den? If humans remained on the island, would they welcome me or treat me as easy prey? I knew what the animals would do to me if they caught me, they are always hungry. But my own kind? I knew what I was capable of, and the dark stone at my wrist held many dangerous secrets. I could feel it offering weapons of destruction and power to be used however I saw fit. The others in this place might also have this deadly knowledge and already possess the weapons it tempts me with.

    The sun was falling and the shadows growing. I built my little wood walls in the ruins of the stone ones as an added measure. I cooked my meat on my little fire, huddling to warm myself as the night overshadowed the world. When the animal noises changed from the soft calls in the trees and the low trumpets of distant herds faded to guttering hisses and shrieks of predators, I doused my fire and grabbed my spear. It felt so inadequate and shabby. A joke against the footsteps at my door. I pray silently for the morning to come. I pray I do not die in the darkness. I pray to see another dawn.

    Primitive Plus Items on Normal Unofficial Servers.

    Posted: 01 Mar 2019 10:54 AM PST

    Hey everyone! Does anyone have information about if Prim+ items work on normal servers? I know I can admin command them in, but I also can just add them into beacons so they can be looted that way. Does this work? I've read some that the building materials are reskins of the normal ones, so I understand those won't work, but what about the furniture and placement items, like beehives and mailboxes? It would just give my players some nice additional creative options if I could just throw them in beacons so we can find and use them.

    Thanks for the help! My Google-Fu was weak on this day.

    Help with Item Caches

    Posted: 01 Mar 2019 08:48 AM PST

    So i'm playing single player with a lot of mods so i'm dying a lot. When I die, the Item Cache I drop with my items takes 3 hours to decay and because there's so many of them, it lags me or even crashes when I use the Corpse Retriever mod. Is there a way to make them decay faster? I've searched everywhere but nothing is working. Cheers.

    I'm a mummy. Funny observation.

    Posted: 01 Mar 2019 08:35 AM PST

    I'm a mummy. Funny observation.

    4 months have passed. I then made a full refund of this post.

    I am Mummy

    From that day on, I no longer logged on to the server (). I played another. After I was kicked out again in the absence of more than 2 weeks, on the server (), I went to the old server.

    Everything is lost. Even the turtles are dead. BUT...

    My drakes live more than 4 months without food.

    I Think We Are Overdue for an Auto-Run Hotkey

    Posted: 28 Feb 2019 06:24 PM PST

    Please and thank you. Gets annoying having to hold my fingers in a certain position for long treks either flying, running, swimming, etc. Please make it a changeable hotkey and compatible with mouse buttons. :)

    Edit: Apparently people are confusing WC's "auto-run" which all it does is toggle sprint on and off which is not what I'm asking. Commonly in MMOs and other games where you have to travel long distances, there is a hotkey which will continue your forward motion for you, so you don't have to hold down whichever key you have set to move forward. That is what an actual auto-run button is and has been in any other game that has it. (To my knowledge anyway that is the common understanding of it.) So I am not talking about a feature that toggles sprinting.

    Top 10 most annoying creatures

    Posted: 01 Mar 2019 06:13 AM PST

    I'll start off with my list

    1. Kaprosuchus. These annoying crocs ability to knock you off your mount is annoying. Thankfully they are fairly frail creatures and fending them off with a pike is usually a non issue. Still annoying though.

    9.Dilos. They are everywhere, does everything in their power to mess up your tames, and in general they are just annoying.

    1. Titanomyrma. As a fresh spawn they can give you a really hard time, especially the ones that fly are fairly quick and their attack drains your stamina as well. Late game these guys is not an issue though.

    7.Leedsichtys. I rarely use rafts anymore because of these guys, do i need to say anymore?

    1. Raptors. Their new tlc ability to pounce you off your mounts is very annoying. I usually just run away from them no when encountered. Rarely take them on

    2. Thylacoleo. Always makes me worried when entering the Redwoods knowing that at any given time they could jump on me. They are very powerful creatures so if you get caught by one you're in big trouble.

    3. Pegomastax. Just annoying in general. Stealing your stuff and running away, luckily you can get your stuff back if you kill them or knock them out.

    4. Titanoboa. Their tendency to come out of nowhere and bite you make them very dangerous and unpredictable. Usually 1 or 2 bites is enough to knock you out and you're dead by that point. Careful in the swamp guys.

    5. Icthyornis. Same with Pegomastax only difference is you can't retrieve your stuff back, and that's huge. I've had these guys stealing a full stack of narcotics in the past.

    1 . Microraptor. There were never any doubt were it? They are so small and tiny, very hard to actually spot and prepare for. They come out of nowhere, knocks you off your mount and stun you. Man do i hate to get stunned by these guys while being mauled by a pack of Terror birds.

    Anyways do you agree with this list? Or disagree?

    Do the green balls that the reaper king shoots out keep the dragon on the ground?

    Problems with crashing?

    Posted: 28 Feb 2019 03:58 PM PST

    I've been playing ARK near constantly for the past few months. Recently however, about 3ish weeks, it's been crashing on me quite frequently. The game will be playing fine, then suddenly everything will just stop. Most of the time, the only way to remedy the issue is to restart my computer. Task manager and alt-f4 are no help. When I do finally get back into the game, I find my progress has been set back anywhere up to about 15 minutes or so. The last one really got under my skin, because I had lost my Baryonyx but escaped from some jellyfish. After the freeze and I got back in, when it loaded back up I was once again right beside three angry jellyfish and of course, died.

    Has anyone experienced this before, and hopefully found some kind of fix?

    Can a mutated stat go over 20/20?

    Posted: 28 Feb 2019 01:12 PM PST

    I can't seem to find a clear answer on this, does a stat become ineffective mutation after 20/20 or can it still be mutated higher by pairing the 20/20 parent with a 0/20? I saw a youtube video of someone saying that it's pointless going over 20/20 but nothing else has been clearly said about it. I'm talking about a pure single stat mutation line of say a melee ONLY mutated male with ALL 20 mutations put into melee.

    MEK's and PVP questions

    Posted: 28 Feb 2019 01:16 PM PST

    What do people use them for in PVP?

    Information seems kinda vague on them. Even though they seem to have some unique abilities, it just seems to me like they are outclassed by other dinos. I plan on doing some testing of my own but was just wondering what people think of them.

    Obviously their boosted damage toward tamed titans would make them useful for titan defense. Also it seems that they can be useful in taming some of the titans.

    Couple random questions:

    1) Can you get picked off/out of your MEK by enemy players on PTs, Griffins, Argies etc?

    2) Can player only turrets hit the player inside of a MEK?

    3) Can the MEK pistol damage auto turrets?
