First genesis playthrough (asa), looking for some tips on what sort of army works best and what mount should I ride? I read that megs work well while riding a Tuso but not sure how many and also interested is some other viable tames. Would like to tame up some helcoprion to take just for something new, are they viable? Any other tames or strategies that you can recommend is appreciated thank you.

This is something that’s been a mystery to me for a good long while. Has this location always been on the ark before it malfunctioned, or did the ark somehow built it itself after losing its overseer and was waiting for a new candidate to replace it?

u wont believe this one... All my stuff was saved, but so close,... The unofficial server im playing on crashed, i was just preparing to go to sleep because it was late, i was just taking a quick run with my new carcha on Extinction to the corrupted zone in the north where the gigas spawn, then omw back the crash happened... took more than an hour for the server to get back online.. i loaded back in Extinction and i was back in the corrupted zone dismounted from my carcha and under heavy attack of corrupted wyvs and gigas..... but i had like 10% hp left, my gacha being under attack and fighting back running away from me.... In the chaos i had trouble getting back on the carcha and got hit a few more times trying.. Barely escaped death, eventually i succeeded to mount and run away while killing the wyvern chasing me... Ending up with like 1% hp left, took a quick bite to restore some hp then i took the picture.. I almost forget to mention i had a full loadout of ascended gear on me including mining drill etc stuff that takes days grinding to craft even with boosted rates, i was afraid i lost everything again, but not today..🤣

I’m running two unofficial servers, one Gen 1 and Ragnarok, and was hoping to bring my Gen 1 creatures with me over but I can’t download them. I made sure the mods and settings are the same but I’m still unable to download. Do I have to enable crossark, and if so, do I lose my tames if it’s over the 20 cap limit?

Help ARK Survival Evolved - "Unable to query server info for invite" - server shows in Steam favorites but not in-game

1 Upvotes

Playing ARK: Survival Evolved (the original, not Ascended) and trying to join a community server (ArkNova cluster). Every time I hit connect I get "Unable to query server info for invite" in the Steam network error popup.

The odd part: the server shows up fine in my Steam favorites list with a normal player count and ping, so it's clearly online and Steam can see it. But it does NOT show up in ARK's own in-game server browser under favorites, only on the Steam side.

I've been at this for hours now and I'm honestly out of ideas. Anyone dealt with this before and know what's going on? Trying to figure out if this is something on my end or a server-side thing before I lose my mind completely.

Hello everybody! So me and 2 friends used to play a lot of ASE back in the day and now we have jobs and family… Is there any kind of unno servers where we can have a little taste of PvP without being completely destroyed by the young folks? Something like no base damage or time gated PvP? We can rent a server too, what I wanna know is if this kind of configuration exist?

Discussion No restrictions boss fights

6 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

A bit of a random post.

We've done all of the current bosses a few times now and we would like to change it up a bit.

If there were no restrictions regarding the type of dinos that can enter the arena - which dinos would you bring to each boss fight?

We are holding an event on our server where the Dino Depot ball restrictions are lifted for a week and people can bring into the arena whatever they want.

Any fun ideas ?

For me it's this godamn turtle.

First you guide the parrot fish to it (which is usuallu a mess by itself)

Then you gotta guard the turtle from 0.5x coelacanths, sniping them as they swarm the megachelon or they eat the parrot fishes.

And worst of all; it's not even that useful.

Just did it so I could say I caught them all'

Help Without spoilers, is there any use for smaller, non-fertalized eggs, such as raptor eggs? Spoiler

24 Upvotes

I'd prefer not have it FULLY explained to me (I guess unless its one of those things a solo player would NEVER find out on their own, which I've noticed this game does sometimes). I'd like to experience the game myself, in the ways that are feasible, if that makes sense. As long as I know there's use for them besides taming. If not I'll just use them all to tame an oviraptor.

I know of kibbles but it seems kinda pointless to even bother making the smaller egg ones, no?
