    Deinonychus Taming Effectiveness Bonus Levels (Or Lack Thereof) Take 2

    Posted: 24 Jun 2019 07:56 AM PDT

    My first post on this wasn't fleshed out enough and was mostly trolled by people arguing straw mans, so lets try this again.

    First, the Deinonychus is a relatively well-balanced dino, for what it is. It isn't game-changing or meta-defining, and it's fun to ride. The bleed effect is neat, the latch-on mechanic has some interesting utility that tribes will probably be figuring out soon, and it's a neat addition to the game. But, it's hardly OP - in fact, it's far from; it's about average. Which, technically, is just fine - we don't need game breaking dinos.

    THAT BEING SAID, Wildcard made a whoopsie with the max levels of Deinos. They put them in the world on the normal 5-level scale, meaning 150 is the max for them to spawn. The eggs they create match level, causing the babies to also have a max spawn possibility of 150.

    In previous maps, the pick-up-eggs-and-hatch dinos were big, intimidating juggernauts in the high-grade tier. Things like Rock Drakes and Wyverns had no equal in terms of their scaling - they can't really be compared stat-wise to other dinos because they're so unique. And, even then, they spawn up to 190 to account for the lack of taming effectiveness bonus levels on tame.

    Even Reapers - one of the most incredibly powerful dinos in the game - can get +75 bonus effectiveness levels and pop out as 225 babies. It's because of this that one can safely say Deinonychus would benefit from Taming Effectiveness levels.

    I do not believe Wildcard "intentionally" capped these at 150. I think they simply made the baby mechanic a thing, and "forgot" that this hard capped them at 150. It's limiting their overall potential because their stats are very similar to other dinos in their weight class - the Raptor is basically identical in a lot of ways to the stat line-up of the Deino, similar to Yutys being close copies of Rexes. So in that, these aren't like Wyverns or Rock Drakes in that they aren't unique - they're actually balanced really well stat-wise for their overall size. That is, if they were equally leveled - by having them spawn so low, they're somewhat outmatched by Raptors etc. in their weight class.

    The suggestion is simple: Have Deinos spawn with a 7-Level scaling. Tek Dinos spawn at a 6-Level scaling and can max out at 180. A 7-Level Scaling for Deinos would mean they could spawn in the wild at as high as 210. Given that currently they're kind of a joke to farm as it is, I think also having them spawn at a max of 210 would mean they'd also pose more of a PVE threat when going for the eggs, which is fair.

    All in all, I think Deinos are cool and not game-breaking, I just think the unintentional mistake over hard-capping them at 150 is regretful. It would be cool to see them spawn upwards of 210 in the wild to make up for it.

    How do small tribe servers work?

    Posted: 24 Jun 2019 10:00 AM PDT

    I have 1200 hours in the game on PC at this point and another 1400 on Xbox. Over that time I have mostly played on a server that had a main group of tribes that were all friendly and promoted growth and we would only raid the assholes. It felt more like a private server pve than pvp. But it was official and we did get raided by griefers and such but not to the extent that small tribe servers do. Now don't get me wrong I understand that in small tribes they don't allow alliances or anything to make it so you fight with everyone but it seems that literally ZERO people help each other out on any of the servers I have joined. It's the second you are seen you are killed and that is that. Now if that is how it is I can play like that but am I just seeing a small demographic of assholes or is that how it should be played? Just super aggro but only 6 people tribes?

    Help with S+ Grinder recipe

    Posted: 24 Jun 2019 09:35 AM PDT

    Hi everyone, I'm not as savvy as I'd like to be in adding a custom recipe to our server.

    I'm looking to add Element to our S+ Grinder. Can someone possibly help out with what lines to add?

    Ideally I'd like to have cost 'x' amount of ingots or 'y' amount of black pearls. Is it possible to have two recipes for element?

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    292 still not up TPG totally legit :)

    Posted: 24 Jun 2019 02:19 AM PDT

    its been almost 20 hours since 292 has been down, and all TPG is talking about is duped crystals instead of talking about why theyre server isnt up which everyone was having fun pvping on. Like how big of a pus can you be by taking your server down instead of defending it like a real man.

    Latching onto wall with Deino causes you to lose connection to host.

    How much Milk for Raising a Wyvern?

    Posted: 23 Jun 2019 11:53 PM PDT

    I played a long time ago and did some Wyvern breeding, but completely forgot how much Milk i needed again.

    Just recently started playing on an unofficial PVE Servers with 10x Breeding/Maturation.

    Do you put 1 Milk into the inventory right after hatching? And then only need milk for imprinting?

    Thanks a lot guys and have a nice day!

    Is there a way to transfer Trophies like Megalania Toxin from Ragnarok to The Island via settings?

    Posted: 23 Jun 2019 07:53 PM PDT

    I'd like to transfer toxin from ragnarok to The island since it can be a pain to get it on the island in masses.

    Thanks!

    how did support change? coming back to the game

    Posted: 24 Jun 2019 02:36 AM PDT

    lost all my dinos to a bug

    is it worth making a ticket?

    I used to play about a year ago and it took 6 weeks to get compensation for losing stuff

    Reporting cheaters / teaming was useless

    Is it any better after jeremy "genius" stiglitz left?

    Play-doh graphics on singleplayer

    Console players are still missing creature assets on various maps

    Posted: 23 Jun 2019 01:15 PM PDT

    The creature assets appear to still be missing from various maps. Some examples are that we cannot spawn in a Reaper Queen on any map other than Aberration but on PC (without mods) they can be spawned in. The same applies to dire polar bears on ragnarok as they are just invisible, even after a cryo. This has been the case since the desert update on ragnarok.

    The inconsistencies create issues on a platform where we cannot use mods. On our own servers that we pay for, we cannot do simple customization that don't require mods. There are many other creature examples that don't have their data living outside of their home map on console but this is not the case on PC.

    I understand not needed to do it for official maps for obvious reasons but when we are buying the base game, all dlc AND paying to have our own server hosted, basic customizations that don't require mods should work.

    Tamed Wyvern dissapeared?

    Posted: 23 Jun 2019 08:32 PM PDT

    I logged in to find my tamed Ice Wyvern gone, we had another one across the map and that one is also gone, the poison one was still there though.

    I installed creature finder deluxe on the server but it couldn't find them, yet it says nothing in the tribe log.

    Where could they be?

    Why Does Ark Take So Much Space

    Posted: 23 Jun 2019 08:24 PM PDT

    I did my own file digging and realized that the folder containing pretty much only the maps (SeekFreeContent) is a little more than 80GB

    I have Ragnarok and Valguero Installed. Then the "Content" File is about 77GB. Now don't get me wrong I'm not a genius on how making games works, but I don't understand why the maps are so large (in file size). It also makes me angry that the space taken on drive is so much more than the listed minimum space requirement

    on the store page.

    Something else that I was questioning, is when I reinstalled the game just recently, after deleting it a while ago, I decided to put it on my SSD (which I didn't own when I last deleted it). The steam download manager displayed that it was a 33GB download, while it is taking 152Gb of my SSD space, my question is, where the hell did the other 120GB come from?
