ARK: Survival Evolved: Abbyration

So, Thread title.

figure i might bring this to ta larger audience than just the steam thread, but I'm thinking they have wyverns, griffins, dinosaurs and Giant Bees (to be covered in) so This is basically the perfect survival game now.

Who wants to play it? I know nothing about private servers, if someone wouldn't mind helping me pick one, depending on price i could probably cover the costs, maybe?

So yeah, who wants to hang out, tame dinosaurs and build shit shacks?

Is that's you let me know, also to connect to the server use 192.154.224.131:27106 in favourite servers in steam to connect. The password is "Tree"

I am getting set up in viking bay.

List of people thus far:
Melding
Moriveth
MrMonroe
Bluedude152 (i think)
Devlin_Dragonus
Weaver

    I'd contribute to a private server, yeah.

    The server hosts I've found, I'm not sure which is good, but here's a list on the ARK wiki with stuff


    I guess personally I'd go with a server host that's updated frequently and supports easy mods and such, for when we want to mess about with that?

  • MeldingMelding Registered User regular
    yeah i found that too, i have no idea what any of it means.

  • MorivethMoriveth BREAKDOWN BREAKDOWN BREAKDOWN BREAKDOWNRegistered User regular
    http://www.ark4u.com/ seems ok?

    You have to pay a bit extra for custom mod support but it'd still be under $20 a month for that.

    that is actually completely doable.

    it's about twenty bucks Canadian, and i think the closest center to me is dallas. Which i guess works out fine for most everyone in north america?

    Still would rather have more then like 3 people interested before pulling the trigger.

    Like, ten. i just need seven people to show up and be like "Hey i have ark and would be interested in playing on a private server"


    edit: it's 25 to do dlc or mods which is, less ideal. not a deal breaker though.

    If I had an ARK server I'd name it The Empire of Turds

    Do you like my photos? The stupid things I say? The way I am alive? You can contribute to that staying the same through the following link

    Yeah I'd chip in like $5 to $10 a month for that.

    Sounds rad, we can work out details if this ever gets off the ground.

    You cool with doing the ragnarok dlc? the map is unfinished at the moment which to me says "there will be new shit to explore every patch" and also there are griffins and frost wyverns. and beavers.

    If people would rather do a mostly finished map that's fine too, but, griffins.

  • MorivethMoriveth BREAKDOWN BREAKDOWN BREAKDOWN BREAKDOWNRegistered User regular
    I'm fine with whatever!

    So long as I get to throw my poop at people.

  • MeldingMelding Registered User regular
    heck yeah, there are animals you want to raise specifically to raise for their big poops.

  • HobnailHobnail Registered User regular
    What animal does ARK propose is Best in Show at shitting

    The Ragnarok DLC is free, as far as I know the only paid thing is Scorched Earth.

  • Bluedude152Bluedude152 Registered User regular

  • MorivethMoriveth BREAKDOWN BREAKDOWN BREAKDOWN BREAKDOWNRegistered User regular
    Also if SE is required it's on sale right now for like $7.50.

  • Bluedude152Bluedude152 Registered User regular
    Anyways suggested stat changes

    Double or triple taming speed, fuck 3 hours to tame a trex

    Double gathering amounts, fuck grinding

    Disable spawns on the small dinos that steal things, fuck the small dinos that steal things

    Probably increase gains on the XP too, it's dumb relying on others to craft you stuff.

    How do we feel about PvP

    Because pvp were everyone is friendly but also we can fuck around and use trash mounts to fight would be fun
    Edit: sometimes I just want to kidnap someone for 5 minutes

    Did they ever implement declaring war/ consensual pvp?

    I remember that was something in the works for the whole clan thing

  • MeldingMelding Registered User regular
    i figure we'd start as a single tribe until we get set up and leave it as we get established. If we have enough people to do more than one tribe that'd be rad too.

    But yeah, i'm down for some pvp, maybe with rules like please don't fuck with offline people too much.

  • bowenbowen Sup? Registered User regular
    maybe I'll install ark

    there has been the boss dragon for a long time, and wyverns got added in scorched earth, and ragnarok has frost wyverns.

    Do not get eaten by dinosaurs, tame dinosaurs, never go into the swamp, rule prehistoric kingdom, then suddenly wyverns, griffons, and alien laser guns.

    Optional side quest of find and tame a kraken and become a terror of the sea.

    Before following any advice, opinions, or thoughts I may have expressed in the above post, be warned: I found Keven Costners "Waterworld" to be a very entertaining film.

    there is a dedicated button for pooping and it plays a fun fart sound effect.

  • TurambarTurambar Independent Registered User regular
    It's a pooping simulator

    Sometimes your pooping is interrupted by dinosaurs

    been wandering around the ragnarok map, the one starting beach is rad, but the one right next to it is full of assholes.

    But there is a cool lava trench.
