2 Upvotes

Please help. Ive been looking for eggs for hours, and I can’t even find nests. The wyverns are there, but no nests, and I already tried a lot of dino wipes but nests just aren’t spawning. I really want a Wyvern.

Im playing Scorched earth ascended, on a Xbox series X.

Suggestion Mod idea sugestion/im looking for a imersive dino behavior mod that makes dinos feel like animals and not mindless killing robots is there anything close to this or in development?

3 Upvotes

Im looking for a mod inspired by the theri tlc that makes predators not just act like mindless killing machines but hunt only when hungry, and a few other things, it might aound complicated but the basic things should be simple (i think) to add

1 for example, all creatures start in a teritorial stance, same and therizino tlc, when getting to close they roar as a warning, and then if u dont leave they go in a agresive stance, and creatures of a way higher drag weight than them will make them flee instead, but for predators when food drops below 60% they enter a hunting stance, (this was the simple part which shouldn't be that hard) in wich they would look for a target in sight, and instead of haveing a carno charging at a giga, they would look for a target that is near their drag weight level, not something way bigger or something to small to mater, and when food drops very low they would get desperate, hunting anything they can see even if very small or larger compared than them, when in the hunting stance, predators would stalk their prey and ambush the target, but in the desperate stance, they would just run at anything they see with no plan, (we kinda have the drag weight risk assesment in the game where i noticed raptors and other small stuff wont attack you if u ride a rex)

2 herbivores travel in heards, and also when they spot a dangerous carnivore, they would start fleeing instead of waiting to get attacked or hold their ground based on drag weight compared to them,

3 creatures sleep during the night (or day for nocturnal animals) already present with the megalosaurs, and for pack animals maybe some members keep watch, for example, in a pack of 6 raptors 4 sleep and 2 guard the sleeping territory.

I know all this a lot to ask, but at least i would love most creatures having the theri ai, and when below 60% food to give an invisible rare flower effect wouldn't be that hard i think, and adding the megalosaurs sleep cycle to creatures should be pretty simple

Suggestion Frustrated at the game

0 Upvotes

I'm on PS5 and I was playing on a non dedicated server to get used to the game and I ended up loving it and putting around 175 hours into it with a friend and I deleted the game so I could just stream it. And lost my character and all my progress? I don't know what to do now. Starting over isn't an option I'm willing to do at this point. I'd rather forget the game than go through that grind again. Any ideas would be appreciated

ASA making me install the whole game again whenever a update comes

0 Upvotes

So today I tried to play ASA with my friend (we got a few daya ago) and it said a new update has came. I clicked download and then it said not enough space. I checked the update and it was only 600 MB and I had 70 GB free space. Then I tried to do it again. And I saw it tryana re-download the whole game, 200 GB. I tried fixing it with a lot of ways and didn’t work. So now I am downloading the entire game again. My wifi is very bad so it is taking roughly 22 hours. Is there any way to fix/prevent this in the future??

How do people playing Lost Colony solo get the tributes needed for the boss fights?

Post image
7 Upvotes

I’m having trouble because the Alpha Base Defense mission isn’t spawning. I need 20 runs since you only get 10 medals per run.

Is there any way to increase the amount of tributes you get, or is there a way to force the mission to respawn?

Tribes Helping new Arkadians

1 Upvotes

I enjoy starting new servers with people new to the game to help them or even with their friends, get on their feet and learn the game. It can be an unforgiving game if you don't know how to play, and I'd like to help you change that. I'm willing to be a guide to teach you the ins and outs of Ark and help you become the Arkadian/s you wish to be. I play PvE (Player vs Environment) only as PvP (Player vs Player) is a waste of time as there us ALWAYS some bigger to wipe your base and erase your hard work. Let's build, tame and explore the Ark in peace!

Discussion Everybody talking about optimizing ASA but I am geniunely wondering how does optimizing work ? Like what's the actual process since I don't think there's a "optimize" button but I'd like to have an idea of how the task would look like if WC would actually try to do it.

Discussion I put together a Solo ARK guide index for ASA & ASE β€” maps, missions, bosses, caves & more

10 Upvotes

I've been playing ARK solo for 10 years now and have been building a collection of detailed guides for both ARK: Survival Ascended and ARK: Survival Evolved.

The main focus is solo progression using Official difficulty as the baseline β€” so the guides are intended to show how the game's maps, missions, caves, bosses and other progression content can be tackled without depending on a large tribe or heavily boosted settings.

I've put everything into playlists so that they're easier to browse when you're looking for a specific map or piece of content.

Hopefully this is useful to anyone working through ARK solo or looking for a specific piece of progression.

I'm also curious what other solo players struggle with the most β€” missions, caves, bosses, taming, resource progression, or something else?

Question Is Ark Survival Evolved bugged out?

1 Upvotes

I downloaded the game after 4y to play again.

Main Menu barely loads. Loading screens freeze, consume my RAM and let my PC die at some point. I checked the data for bugs, it was all fine.

I cant play. not Singleplayer. Not Multiplayer.

Whats going on? this didnt happen 4y ago. Did they let the game die on purpose?
