    Do GM have a standard support process and limits?

    Posted: 13 Jun 2019 04:05 AM PDT

    I ask because it wildly various from what gm answered your ticket.

    A tribe member lost their giga to a glitch, video evidence given and he got a new giga, hatched (Lvl 244) imprinted and cryopoded Gm came on and instant raised it and fully imprinted it.

    1 month later

    one of our bases got meshed, we lost a lot. video evidence submitted and the offending tribe got dev wiped and the support offerd me some baby raises providing they are under level 200 and no imprint will be restored.

    there are other times we've had Gm raise dinos over level 200 and fully imprinted, this is just one example

    Why is their such a different? Do i just close the ticket open a new one and hope a different Gm answers?

    Thank you for your advice.

    I Would Love Some Map Suggestions!

    Posted: 13 Jun 2019 11:05 AM PDT

    I'm looking for a long term, unofficial map for single-player. The kind of map I'm looking for is a vibrant, light-hearted, fantastical map. Here's some helpful examples to help paint a picture of what I'm looking for:

    1. The Highlands in Ragnarok are beautiful.
    2. I've always loved caves, even though I've never played Aberration. Some of the lighting, geodes, etc look GORGEOUS, but I REALLY DISLIKE the idea being in a dark cave forever. I would rather live in a brighter, tropical place and go cave diving when I want a coolness factor.
    3. I really loved the Center (despite all its problems) as a more fantasy version of the island. This has been my goto for a while, so I know about a lot of its beautiful locations like Tropical Islands North and South, the Bridge, the Underworld, obviously its Namesake, and my personal favorite base location, the Ruins. Obviously, I like this map, but I like new things as well.
    4. What about Extinction? Definitely not. Not to say it doesn't have some beautiful scenes, but I'd much have a ruined castle on my map instead of a ruined technological city. I like the more natural feel of stone over metal.

    I currently have my eye on the Crystal Isles map, mostly because the White Shoals looks amazing, and it definitely fits a lot of my criteria. Can anyone attest to the rest of the map? Are there any better maps? I would love your recommendations!

    Ragnorak base recommendation!

    Posted: 13 Jun 2019 03:52 AM PDT

    Hello, my friends and I are changing servers to Ragnorak from the Island. What are some great places to build our new base? And why? Pretty scenery, close to resources etc

    Thanks!

    Is anyone else having issues getting on Ragnarok Nitrado servers since the game update 296.106??

    Posted: 13 Jun 2019 09:11 AM PDT

    Have updated my game and the server to the latest patch and now the map just says shooterentry rather than Ragnarok. Is anyone else having this problem and has anyone figured out how to sort it?

    Is there a mod that allows players to mate and create human NPCs?

    Posted: 13 Jun 2019 04:25 AM PDT

    I have a lot of fun in ark, but I always find it more fun to play with other people. My friend and I wanted to expand our tribe without having to beg our other friends to play the game(only to have them whine and complain).

    So I guess I just wanted to know- is there a mod that allows players to create NPC offspring?

    Sorry if this was already answered somewhere else :/

    Edit- I will probably post this on other ark sub reddits so if you see this somewhere else please don't be surprised

    Engrams? Yet another Question from a noob!

    Posted: 13 Jun 2019 12:57 AM PDT

    So yet again (you have probably seen me post here allot over the weeks) i have been confused! (nothing new)

    I only play Aberration atm as i have an amazing tribe mate who showed me the ropes, but his knowledge is limited only to aberration, i now want to squeeze everything out of aberration before i move onto Scortched/rag/extinction, i play OFFICIAL

    My questions are:

    If i send my character over to exinction and unlock managrmr and velonasaur saddles, will i be able to then make them on abberation? Or will i have to make over there and transport myself with them?

    Also Cryo balls and fridges are a huge problem for me at the moment, can i unlock those and make over in abberation if i got someone to unlock a tek thingy ma bob.

    Are gasbags and gatcha's worth trying to get? I have velonas and managmr's from trading.

    Will probs edit with more questions

    Fresh Wipe, But keeps both sides haooy

    Posted: 13 Jun 2019 06:46 AM PDT

    Many people been asking WC to wipe the official servers but WC has responded to those comments by saying many people who have spent hours and hours of work would be wiped and unhappy and unfair towards them, which is a fair point and good for them for thinking about others as well

    But what if they did the same as legacy, move the current server to another place, and add fresh official ones, this way it would be a fair for both sides, who ever had a base it will still be up or they can start the new ones if they want, and people who want new one would have what they want as well, it a win win situation,

    Of course it might be hard to get the same exact number of servers again but they could start with a low number, and slowly the old ones would die, so they can wipe them and make them new

    also another thing would nice is, having extinction blocked for a while, because if they have it running, people will be at tek stage in first few weeks, i would suggest at least 4 months, since when people get to tek it gets really boring, but im sure they can balance that out

    What you guys think? Would you agree or disagree by the idea ?

    Posted: 13 Jun 2019 02:05 AM PDT

    While i know we are somewhat late to the party we have only just started playing ark extinction.

    What food keeps you alive longest in the wasteland? I have checked the old posts but i cannot reply to them.

    I am gonna try desert armor, a tent, healing potions and plenty of canteens but it seems like there should be something better than cooked meat?

    Looking for feedback from Official and competitive Unofficial PVPers regarding what you want in a PVP mod

    Posted: 12 Jun 2019 01:02 PM PDT

    I've been unsure about posting on Reddit due to bad experiences in the past with trolls and just generally negative people, but I figured there's nothing to lose at this point. I began work on a mod several months ago that did well enough for my first project, but I realized after some time that I was missing the mark both in meeting what PVPers want out of Ark, and drawing a healthy, competitive player base to the "Official Mod Cluster". I have been taking a break since then partly due to being unsure how to proceed, but also out of frustration due to the difficulty of reaching a player base that typically doesn't even remotely consider playing on Unofficial.

    My intent with this thread is not to promote the mod, but to gather feedback to hopefully get some motivation and direction to resume development, so I am deliberately not naming or linking the mod here to stay true to that.

    Any constructive discussion is welcome, but to hopefully get things started in a positive direction I wanted to ask a few questions to give me a better idea of what people are looking for. I have a few thousand hours in Ark Official PVP, but I have realized that what I want out of Ark may be totally different from what others do, and if I want to succeed as a developer I need to meet both my vision for the mod, as well as the expectations of the player base.

    1. Do you feel that Ark provides enough player/tribe choice as it currently is built, or would you like to have more opportunities for more meaningful decisions? Is there such a thing as a game providing too many options?
    2. If Ark had a win condition, that if completed wipes the server and logs the winning tribe on a leaderboard, would that be a positive feature or drawback for you?
    3. Does Ark need defined objectives for tribes to aim for? If so, what sort of objectives would you like to see? If not, are there any ways that Ark could provide more avenues to define your tribe's own objectives?
    4. Should PVP occur primarily at base, out in the open, or a healthy mix of both?
    5. Is offlining, and the degree to which it currently rewards raiders acceptable, or would you rather see more incentives for online raids?
    6. If Ark had a deep and intricate skill/tech tree (think Starcraft, Diablo 2, Path of Exile, etc) that tribes can progress through, would that add to or take away from the core Ark experience for you? Is there anything that makes this sort of skill system too complicated for you to bother learning?
    7. Do you prefer balance to be strictly developer-controlled, or more fluid? If you discover that a specific strategy is overpowered, would you prefer the developer to immediately rebalance it, or would you rather have the tools available in the game to develop your own counter?
    8. Would you prefer rates (XP, Resources, Taming/Breeding, Crafting Efficiency) to be strictly static, or something that each tribe can manipulate at a local level to attempt to gain a strategic advantage?
    9. What would it take for an Unofficial server admin to earn your confidence that they will not cheat or show preferential treatment. Are there any sort of logging/reporting features that could be modded into Ark to provide you the confidence to know that you are PVPing on a level and fair playing field?
    10. Do you feel that tribe size should be rewarded as much as it currently is in Ark? If features were added to provide smaller tribes the opportunity to bridge that gap, would that be seen as a good thing, or an unwanted "comeback mechanic".

    Need some technical help on using a controller on PC

    Posted: 12 Jun 2019 09:15 PM PDT

    A couple of weeks ago I damaged my ulnar nerve from resting my arm in a funny way on my desk, so I can't use a mouse and keyboard for most of my games till it heals. I dug my Steam controller out from the bottom of a box, and have had a lot of success using it for a lot of the games in my library but Ark is giving me an issue with it.

    I don't know if this part is on Steam's side or Ark's side, but Ark thinks I'm using an Xbox controller and I don't like the keybinds that come with that. I would much rather just tell Ark I'm using a keyboard, and set my Steam controller to use keyboard keybinds, like I have with all my other games. It's very configurable.

    The problem is that, when I go to the menu and "disable gamepad", it disables, but then re-enables again automatically the moment I hit any button on my controller. And there seems to be no way to lock it off. The result is that the Xbox keybinds set for Ark are overriding my keyboard keybinds.

    Any way to fix this? I understand Steam controllers are a little bit niche here as mostly people use Xbox controllers with PC games but I really like the Steam controller because it's a lot easier on my wrists and fingers.

    How to get a whip on Ragnarok without Scorched Earth DLC

    Posted: 12 Jun 2019 09:11 PM PDT

    So I recently found a whip on the Ragnarok map as a drop (I think it was a Mantis drop). I don't see anywhere on the wiki regarding how to acquire one, other than through crafting (which you can't do on just Ragnarok, you also have to have Scorched Earth).

    My question is if anyone knows how to get another one without having to buy Scorched Earth as a DLC, I may just camp Mantis' for a while, but I don't know if it's a reliable method of getting one. Any and all input is greatly appreciated!
