One of the bonuses of building in a dense neighborhood, is that when others live nearby and keep your base rendering, eggs come more often.

On the tek rex , It will take you 3 mutations on the melee to catch up to the regular rex melee. On the regular rex, it will take you 5 mutations to catch up to the same health stat of the tek rex.

Convince everyone on the server to kill off their useless tames.

I'd doubt it.

You are correct, a level 5 has 4 points that cut down on space for important stats. There's also one other reason for doing this early on before we get incubators. When breeding for mutations, if you got a 100 points in melee and 0 points in every other stat on that stud, then breed to females all w/ 0 points in every stat - you will be able to spot mutated babies with just a look at their over all level upon birth. You are mostly only going to see babies that will birth with levels { 1 , 3 , 101 , 103} , the full actual set of possibilities will be {1 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 101 , 103 , 105 , 107} When you see 100 babies come out with various levels, you will know right away you can kill off every level {1 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 101}. You will only have to look at the babies that birth at {103 , 105 , 107}. That saves a load of time when hatching over 200 eggs at a time.

I don’t know what ASE finished at , but it was 15750 for a very long time up until I stopped playing last year.

Dire bears are stronger than a spinosaurus on single attack damage. That’s for both main and alternate attack. they are totally squishy, but once you get north of 4k Hp caught and melee over 400% bred together they become monsters.

Jerboa's aren't even extinct. Just pick a really cool animal, living or from the past.

The issue right now is more that the servers crash every couple hours, so all pillar spam from day one keeps resetting on timers. This is leading to the map filling w/ pillars from players who leave and then the pillars never leave. Its a little different, but maybe temporary.

Lots of people make this sort of mistake in caves on Ark. Its a dino tame game, you went in missing your greatest assets in caves. Dinos. There is 1 cave on The Island that requires you to go on foot only. The rest, we use tames. If you can't fit a tame in the door, we breed and raise them inside.

dang it. No maewings or cryopods cus they weren't there in the beginning, but they draw the line at the kibble system... Bring back the old kibble farms! @Cinnamongodcryopods will show up when Extinction drops.

It seems more like a boa constrictor around the neck of this game franchise. I can't see this ending well.

This is kind of mind blowing to me. I'm wondering now if the product team even thought this out before now. a) they did think about it, and they are blood sucking vampires who said go for it. b) they are incompetent , and holy DILO! they actually didn't think this through. How much do they get paid to be this incompetent?

unfortunately for you, they weren't contractually required to get the game up and running on console by 10/30. This is why they are rushing it out now. If it wasn't for that, we'd all still be waiting another month or 2.

Hardcore only works on games that work. Killed by bad coding is impossible to overcome on this game.
