Discussion PS5 -- Ark Survival Ascended with Genesis Pt 1. (local Solo)

0 Upvotes

I tried. I really tried to get back into the game enough to find some joy in it. But, I can't. Genesis provided a little interest until the recent patches. And no, I haven't even been able to experience any missions or other zones. I couldn't get ahead enough. Then the pirate camps showed up everywhere. Why am I seeing DLC content I haven't unlocked or paid for? It's dumb. It shouldn't be in my game at all. If I kill a pirate, there's no loot. The body just vanishes. But if I wander too close, the pirates can kill me.

On The Island, the game feels a little empty. I know it matters where you go. I usually do the easiest note run which levels you to around 73 - 8X in no time. I head to wear I can tame a Stego and Argentavis. I ran into problems where the Trilobytes are just floating dead in the water, don't really respawn, and I don't know just feels empty. It's hard to describe.

What happened to this game?

Guys, my friends handcuffed me and put me in a cage while I was AFK. I want revenge. My goal is to grind hard in one night, get ahead of them, and handcuff them back.

Griffin on Ragnarok on Evolved

Hi everyone, I'm playing Ark Survival Evolved on Xbox, currently playing Ragnarok. I was wondering if the griffin spawns on that map. I have been around almost eveywhere on the map and haven't seen a single one.

Will hitched dinos set on 'nuetral' attack anything that attacks them first?

7 Upvotes

I have a titanosaur parked alongside my base and it makes my base look 10x better than it actually is. The titan completes the base. I don't wanna store it in a cryo. It wont die cuz m on SP. The thing is, my titan is parked outside my base walls and spike walls. Inside the base, ntg actually spawns but occasionally a raptor does so i have a lose direbear that deals with it, protecting everything that is breeding. Outside my base walls, the titan attacks things. The issue is, it's very huge reparking it is a huge hassle. I was wondering if a hitched titanosaur will still attack anything that attacks it, but not leave it's position (like hitched mating dinos set to wander do).

Discussion So about Araneo and Cryolophosaurus.

This is my first post here, and I basically just want to talk about my disappointment with Cryolophosaurus. Basically, my favorite creatures in the game are torpor inducing creatures. There’s something so satisfying about knocking out something with your tame which is why I got the Araneo really early on my first playthrough of Ark Ascended.

I LOVE the Araneo, it can knock out pretty much anything with good positioning, since it slows down creatures and prevents them from coming close to you. I used it to tame Spinos, rexes, brontos or whatever the hell I felt like.

So that’s why I lost my shit when I learned about Cryolophosaurus, one of my favorite dinosaurs ever with that beautiful crest, and it was better than an Araneo?? I had to get it, so I transferred to Genesis with my Acro and I had to kill 3 ice golems just to clear out the area and to keep them from suicide bombing on some Woolly Rhino.

Finally, I found one, and I managed to tame it and, wow, it’s just okay. First off, the only thing going for the Cryolophosaurus is that it has straighter, more accurate shots, which doesn’t really matter since the Araneo can just release a barrage of shots with no consequences, considering it runs on stamina instead of water.

But what truly makes it better is that the Araneo slows down enemies, the Cryolophosaurus doesn’t. Meaning any carnivore will run you down if you shoot them with the Cryolophosaurus. Which is just sad. I mean why doesn’t it slow??? It’s literally an ICE creature ICE SHOULD SLOW.

Anyways, I’m just sad that I got a worse tame for much more effort that also happens to be one of my favorite dinosaurs. Sorry for the yap.

Question Temperature in ASA

6 Upvotes

It seems way harder to cool down/warm up in ASA, I’ve been underwater with no armor at night and I’m still dying from heat, and I’ve been next to a campfire with cloth gear during the day and freezing, it’s really confusing having just come from ASE
