I'm more than happy to double my original pledge to keep the server up and running... which was nothing. Honestly,if people were getting on, I'd be more than happy to donate. Just... never see anyone on.

Our last pledge drive carried us through a few months but it's about that time again. What do ya'll want to do with the server as another payment is coming up in a few weeks? I'm currently all-in with Fallout and not sure I'll be playing much of Ark for a little while at least and wanted feedback/input from y'all.
I'll kick in if others want to play and keep it up. I haven't gotten on lately, mostly because every time I have some time no one else is on.


Same boat. I'm not done with the game, just don't want to carry all costs if no one else was playing still. Once fallout hype dies down a little I'm sure I'll be splitting more time between games. I've logged in a few times to keep some dinos from starving :-D

Oh no. I bet all of ours are dead... I haven't logged on in quite a while. Everyone dissappeared when Fallout released so I stopped getting on then. Now I am all wrapped up in Battlefront. Between that and stuuf I have to do around the house I am not sure when the next time I get on will be. Might be nice to sit out for a while and then have it be like a whole new game in a few months when more updates have been pushed through.

I was thinking the same thing. I tried to get on last night to take a look, but had too many updates to install. I'm updated now, so I'll try to check tonight.

I've been out of town a bit lately, and will be for three weeks.

Fed the dinos a couple times. The Great Hall trough went through 180 meat before it slowed down! Pity we can't put a refrigeration unit on a trough.

Got on yesterday and spent quite a bit just feeding the herd (and fueling the generator, which was out). Fortunately, it seems during one of the server resets at some point, our deep water dinos are no longer beached, so I took Shamu out. Guess I missed when they added the Angler fish. That's kinda cool, and creepy. Also, compys are under foot now. Knew they were coming, but hadn't seen them until last night.

Thanks for doing all that - I keep meaning to get on, but tis the season to be busy.

I'm excited about the angler fish. No saddle, plus a light? Could you tell how well the light works?

Not sure really, however, they drop angel gel, which burns longer than spark powder.

Bred 4 pachys tonight (well, hatched 3 of them, and then bred for the 4th). 4th one, lvl 224 "baby", lol. Gotta love high level parents.

If any of you haven't followed the posted guide in the steam community to get the best fps, do it!

It's somewhere in the top 10 most popular, called FPS fix or something close. Performance was amazing after making the changes.

Just a reminder that we've been covered for the past 3 months off that last "pledge drive" but the bill will be due soon. As long as there are funds to cover, no prob... but currently there are none.

Out on Xbox One for $35. It's nice! Already optimized. You can host your own server, play local offline, or use the Xbox Live servers.

They say you can actually host your own server 24/7 if you buy a separate Xbox One, separate live account, and game. Cheaper than buying a server and going through the trouble of setting it up. But I'm sure no one wants to pay up front for another Xbox.

Would love to play this game but I'm stuck on the "Join Ark" screen. I get to this screen and my controller just stops working. Can't move the radical down, can't press any of the option buttons.

I've been playing this on XB1 a lot. I took a break from FO4 and have been playing this on xbox and madden 16 the past several days.

On xbox.

The bug forums on the ark website have yet to help either. Seems I'm the only one with this issue.

this happens to me. While on that screen, hold down the (X) symbol and power off you controller... wait a few seconds and power it back on and let me know if that worked.

Server is up! I'm too afraid to see NO dinos @ my base... mass (accidental) genocide.

I got on tonight and farmed food for a bit, and filled the trough a couple times until everyone stopped eating.

You guys should check out the winter wonderland - full of snow, blizzards, and Rapter Claus!
