Actually Sig, remember those metal walls you found and how you couldn't find the cave entrance? During the week I had seen stuff on the chat that those walls are Konys doing and block off the caves. After the wipe, or even better yet on a different server, it might be a possibility though. I'm still kind of partial to a fortress/castle setup sort of like what we had.

I agree too but the problem is we're vulnerable in the open until we get metal buildings. At least with the cave we could hole up in there and it wouldn't require nearly as many resources. The cave would be good for us to start out and reside in until we get to the point where we can produce metal buildings and make fortresses that only high levels could brake into.

Well there was also an Admin QA base there so that have been taken care of.

Uh, no Sig. That IS Kony. If there even is is a "real" Admin Q/A tribe, then I know for near certain fact that Kony has named his tribe in close imitation.

I still don't necessarily agree with a full-out cave base either way. The guide you linked to if anything only highlights the reasons why it is not a good idea. Really, the only advantage it has is protection against aerial attacks, but that hardly outweighs being in a prime traffic location, having limited size, and already being inhabited by some nasty critters.

Fair enough then, I know they were talking about some tribe that names their creatures after members for some reason that I didn't know, so I can buy that.

And that's fair, it was just a suggestion because of a thread I saw on the ARK reddit about them. To be fair though, there's a radius around structures that prevents spawning of creatures

Even if they don't spawn near they do wander far enough to get close. Plus I don't imagine there's too much room for much such building either...

We'll probably need low pop servers, that way there will be people we can raid and stuff but it won't be too bad on us.

EDIT: Or we can get a Cave Base, they're supposed to be nigh-impregnable.

EDIT: Based on my earlier scoutings and this link. I'm pretty sure the Southern cave is clear of people, of course that was last week.

I like the idea of a cave base, but our dinos would still be weak to attack, and we would constantly be targets tto people wanting ores and stuff

So the new patch is out along with the first stone-tier parts, Shastasaurus and Plesiosaurus are in-game, the Icthyosaurus Dossier is revealed, and a wipe of PvP servers has been confirmed (and if I read correctly, it has possibly already been executed by now).

So, let's bring ourselves to a decision here while the wipe is fresh. We can stay on 356; everything physical has been wiped, but characters, levels, and tribes remain as they were so we wouldn't be starting over from level 1. However, it will likely still be all of the same people on there, so keeping our levels might not be worth it. Alternatively, we can try a different server; a complete start-over with different people. However, until we get there, we really won't know if the people are any better than 356. We will also, of course, need to decide of which server it is that we are moving to.

A part of me would be inclined to stay, but I think in the long run we are better off going elsewhere. Kony and all those guys are still going to be the same rear-ends they've always been, wipe or not. To me there's really nothing to distinguish any of the other servers, so I'd just pick one that looks like it might be more lightly used and go for it.


EDIT: Also we need to decide where we're going to settle, whatever server we're on. ;)

As Sigma and I just noted on our steam chat, the north is kind of sabertooth infested. Plus we're both inclined to get away from the people on 356.

I'm going to take a look to see if I can pick out any suitable servers, but we still really need to decide where to settle once we're there. Sigma and I are going back and forth with a few ideas -we're looking at inland spots on rivers- but all suggestions are welcome.

EDIT: What do you think of 40/66? Sigma and I both think it might be a good spot.

I say we go on a Kony search, tranq arrow him, and keep him prisoner. We can force feed him, keep him healthy, and since he can't die, we will just keep his character locked in a box. Revenge will be sweet.

To be fair, once you've attained a respectable level, Sabretooths aren't a problem anymore. And if you're still worried, you could always tame a raptor for protection.

As for server, I wouldn't mind moving out, but we could always still scout 356. The location of the Immortals base was quite devoid of A holes in the past, until they did finally show up, but you all remember how that went for them. :P Anyway, maybe it still is the same sort of sanctuary it used to be, in which case we might not need to move out.

As for location, I wouldn't mind 40/66 either.


Edit: I cannot seem to find anything for Shastasaurus anywhere. Are we sure it's actually in game, and that the devs didn't make a derp and actually meant to call it Ichthyosaurus?

Looks like with the games I've downloaded that I've maxed my internet usage for the month. So I'm probably just going to be on my phone for the next week, sadly. :(

@DG: See they released a dossier for the Icthyosaurus, so they very well may have derped, regardless though I haven't seen either the plesiosaur or the icthyosaur. Although they're [the creatures] still listed under upcoming patch notes, so that makes me think they haven't actually added it yet.

@DF: Well crap, now who am I supposed to bother when I log on to ARK? :P

@Everyone: So, I'm on sever 431 if anyone wants to join me, for no other reason than it was the least populous when I looked this morning plus nothing in the chat pointed towards any particularly war-mongery tribes. I've made it up the river to 58/72 just north of the obelisk where the two rivers converge and am holed up in a 1x1x1 Thatch hut. Not gonna lie there are a lot more predators up in this area, and I haven't even made it to our potential spot yet. Though good news is I've only seen one settlement at around 78/38 and that was just a one person built structure.

1: Aw, poor Sigma. Lol. There is a chance I might get it extended and be back in business later tonight, but the safer assumption is that I'm stuck to my phone for the next week. Given an hour or so I should know for certain.

2: That sounds very promising! :D The predators perhaps aren't too surprising. I always heard the north was harsher, and when I went up towards the blue obi on 356 it did seem like there was more wildlife that way.

EDIT: So apparently I derped. It wasn't that my internet usage was maxed, it was just a notice that it was going up to the next rank on the flexible plan. So, uh, I'm good to go on my internet, lol.

I'll be on the server soon, Sigma. :)
