Guys, 218 will include the Quetzal and it's saddle along with a advanced sniper and tranq darts.. They are absolutely ROLLING stuff out for us haha

Well, I lost my Argent yesterday. Poor Huginn was on passive and got Sarco'd when I was taming my frog Nu. I took Munnin up north in the hopes of taming another Argent, and I logged out in the Arctic outpost. But if the Quetz is coming soon-ish, I'm just gonna come back home and wait it out because flying fortresses.

In other news Project Turtle Breeding is finished-ish. I'll need to clean the area up, which I started doing yesterday (so if anyone is looking for Ganeshani she's down at the farming building). So if anyone gets on, check the ground beneath the structure for eggs please, so we can get some Brontos.

Also how and where are we gonna store crops? I've stored fertilizer to at least kickstart the farming while I'm away, so minimal crop growth (i.e. one crop of each, until I get more Phiomias) will be underway starting either tonight or tomorrow morning.

We do have a fridge lol I just need to go out tonight and stockpile oil and get crafting some gasoline for the gennie (which has been off for a couple days now) after I get myself a flak set. I apparently died at some point and lost all my stuff I had on me, so that's fun. I'm currently borrowing some gear Cyprectus seemed to have gotten from Alpha killing which I will return to his gullet as soon as I get my own gear back up and running.

Well, I can safely say that I'm not going to be on until the weekend for certain due to my work schedule this week. On the plus side, Thanksgiving long weekend means that I'll have three days off, two of which I should be free to FINALLY play some ARK again.

Also, yay for the Quetz! I'm really interested to see how it turns/works out.

ok, is it just me or is the frog really overpowered? I have one that is only like level 18 and I can just run around slaughtering everything with it, and the things I don't trust the frog to survive fighting, I can get away from with almost no stamina usage by jumping. Also the range of the tongue lets you sit on top of rocks and tongue things until they die or get knocked out. These things are just insane. They do everything, and well. Their only downsides seem to be low health and no attacking in the water, and that's ignoring their cement gathering abilities. I really have no reason to use my Sarco anymore, much less a raptor... You get the saddle pretty early on and it's not terribly expensive, but it's probably the best transportation mount till the Pteranodon, and even then it can outclass the Ptera in some cases because it regains the stamina it uses from jumping while in the air still.

So, quick summary of the last 2 days.

Yesterday I tamed a level 116 Stego I stumbled across. He currently does not have a name, but I' sure I'll think of one eventually. I've leveled his speed up quite a bit, so he's not the slowest thing on the block.

Then I got working on a Dilo egg farm. It didn't take long before I had a bunch of Dilos all laying eggs. So, if anyone wants some Dilo eggs, you can always stop by, though I'd prefer it if the ones in the refrigerator stay untouched.

Now, onto today. Today was the day of looking for things you won't find. First I searched for Titanoboa eggs, but found nothing. Then me and Sigma searched Quetzals, but found nothing. Then I tamed a female rex to start the Rex egg farm. And then DM and I searched for Quetzals, but found nothing.

During todays final search, I found a level 104 Rex after a while. As luck would have it, it was a female. So, while DM kept searching, I decided to tame the Rex instead. Sure enough, at the end of the day, no one seems to have even seen a Quetzal on the server so far, so I do not regret taming the newly tamed Krona.

Anyway, while I was taming her, Sigma said he wanted to test something on me, which he later revealed to be a poison grenade. However, he didn't know where I was, and I wasn't planning on telling him (FYI: I was on the mountain by Smuggler's Pass). Eventually, I went home with Krona to call it a day, but as I had announced this in tribe chat, I knew Sigma would be waiting there (Plus, he pretty much said "I'll be waiting there" in chat himself). So, when I got home, I decided to take the initiative, shooting Sigma in the face with a tranq arrow. However, he sort of got his wish of testing the poison grenades. You see, as I was taking care of stuff before I called it a day, I tested his poison grenades on HIM! >:)

And that's what they call karma.

Are you kidding me? I wrote almost my entire update post, but then just because I wanted to listen to music, my iPad decides it has to reload the page and delete everything I wrote. I guess this is gonna be a quickie now.

Day before yesterday:

Tamed more Rexes for egg farm.

Pointlessly searched for Quetzals, ende up taming high level Albino argent instead.

Yesterday:

Found out that searching for Quetzals was pointless because there's a bug only server admins can fix.

Built a big, huge, giant fence around my base,

Kibble tamed a level 104, female albino Rex named Kreta.


With that out if the way, I should have enough Rex eggs to kibble tame a high level Plesiosaur today.

Long weekend get. Even with having a cold, having to fix that "lovely" tractor (AGAIN), and having a couple movies to watch in addition to tomorrows' Dr, Who episode, I should have loads of time over the next few days to play.

FINALLY!


Also, have you guys seen the notes for patch 219 (eta next Tuesday)?
In short; we're getting Mosasaurus and the first pass for adding baby dinos/breeding mechanics.

Hype got.

Guys. We got one. We got a Pretzelcoatlus. She was only level 16, but whatever. Still a beast.


And when I say "WE got one" I mean me and Vinnie. Sigma was there, but he didn't really do anything other then throw a assortment of grenades at either absolutely nothing, or my face.

[ *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  * ]
So, as usual, here's the 2 day recap.

Yesterday, I searched for a high level Plesi to kibble tame. First I set out on Meggy Jr. Jr., but I soon realized I'd need to firepower of Mr. Meggerson to get rid of the low level ones. Either way, I decided to complete the scouting tour around the island. That didn't go so well. When I reached Death Island, I decided that I'd like to see what was in the purple drop that was just on the beach. Unfortunately, it was guarded by 2 raptors, so I lured them into the water and took them on with Meggy Jr. Jr...

That did not go well. The Raptors trapped Meggy Jr. Jr. and, while the lower leveled one went down easily enough, the higher level one actually killed Meggy Jr. Jr., though I killed it in return. However, I was faced with quite a problem. I was stranded on Death Island without a single pet, and my house was on the other side of the bloody map. So, my first though was something along the lines of "Oh sh*t". But, I decided to try and get home anyway.

What started as "Oh sh*t" ended up being one of the most fun things I've done in this game. First, I nearly ended up getting killed by a Megalodon on the way back to the mainland. But when I finally got there, the game really started to feel like a survival game again. With my best weapons being my crossbow and a metal hatchet, I began my journey back to my home, hunting Dodos, Dilos, Raptors and even a Carno for food, or for just making sure they didn't eat me instead. By the time I finally made it home. my "Oh sh*t" feelings had evolved into "CALL ME ROBINSON, BRAH!" feelings.

Was it worth losing an Ichthy for? Heck yes. 10/10, would recommend crossing the island by yourself.

Then things got boring again as I searched for Plesios with Mr. Meggerson, but after a while of searching, well, the Pretzels turned up, so I was like "K BYE PLESIOS I'M GONNA GET A FLYING SNACK INSTEAD".

Vinnie was the first to tame one, but apparently I am like the only person on the server a high enough level to craft the saddle for them, so I crafted said saddle for him. Vinnie, being the helpful person that he is, decided to help me get one as well. So, when I found one, Vinnie let me onto the air-taxi so I could get close enough to tranq it with my crossbow. The plan went quite well, and soon enough I had a Pretzel of my own.

Today, one of the first thing I did was get my Pretzel saddled up as well as colored appropriately, now...

Meet the light bearer, Lucifer!

Other then that, today consisted mostly of me farming metal and obsidian, crafting people Pretzel saddles, and general shenanigans.

But DM, I would not recommend sleeping on elevated floors.

Despite my best efforts to pull you out, the floor is still eating you.

"Well, at least Dino babies for now. Please bear in mind this is the first iteration on the baby-makin' system, and it will doubtless become more advanced and better as we proceed forwards in development.

First, all your previous eggs are just good for eating. They're not fertilized. To get fertilized eggs, the first step in v219 is to get two tamed dinos of the same species together. Not all Dino species will support babies yet in v219, but most will. You can tell if your Dino species supports babies because it'll say on their HUD "Enable Wandering to Mate". So bring a lovely male and female (tamed) together, set them both to "Enable Wandering", and most likely pen them in to ensure they are kept quite close together for a time. When sufficiently close, beating hearts will appear over their heads, and the mating bar will appear on the female Dino's HUD. Both Dino's HUDs will also indicate who they're mating with, specifically.

When the Mating bar is complete, she'll drop a fertilized egg. She won't be able to mate again until a subsequent Mating Wait interval has passed, which is indicated on her HUD. (Males can mate as often as needed.)

The Fertilized Egg itself only incubates when dropped, not in Inventory. When dropped a Fertilized Egg won't spoil, but to incubate it must be kept at a certain temperature range depending on the species (this also factors in insulation). If outside of this temperature range, it won't make incubation progress, and it will lose "Fertilied Egg Health" over time and be destroyed if zero. This is all indicated on the HUD when looking at a fertilized Egg, and its description also tells you its Parents.

After being fully and successfully incubated, the baby dino will pop out of the egg. Babies initially have extremely low health and carrying capacity and food, so you need to carefully feed and take care of them in their first moments of life, or they'll soon die. They dynamically can carry more, gain more HP, and food capacity, as they mature over time. Babies are unclaimed initially, so you should "Imprint" on them to claim them after birth.

Babies can not be ridden or attack until FULLY MATURED (for now). They'll flee any fight.

The Baby's base stats are a random combination of its parents' base (original pre-tamed) stats, and so are its colors. This is where things get interesting:

Because the baby randomly inherits any of its parents' stats, the baby can have more "total" stats than either parent. For example, if you had a Trike Male Parent with "Natural Max" HP (Max wild stats all dumped into HP), and a Trike Female Parent with "Natural Max" Stamina, mating the two of them together COULD result in a baby with BOTH Natural Max HP AND Natural Max Stamina. You could then mate said baby (once grown) with another baby (once grown) that happened to inherit Natural Max Attack Damage & Natural Max Inventory Weight, to create an even more powerful 3rd generation Trike. And so forth. By using this (random but 70% biased towards inheriting the better stats) selective breeding, you can breed out the stats you don't want, breed in the ones you do, and eventually with enough effort, breed a complete max-base-statted Uber-Dino... and the world shudders.

However, you don't get to see the stats until after the Egg is hatched, so that could take some effort ;)

Also, the dinos don't have to be "in-Tribe" to mate, they just have to be non-aggressed and tamed and in proximity. So a Tribe could, ahem, loan out their prized breeding dinos, and both Tribes split the resulting eggs, etc.

And oh yeah the younger a baby is, the corresponding less resources it gives if u harvest it, but the more chance of prime meat you get. Newborns are pretty much guaranteed to give a couple primes >:D

Finally, babies don't have an "age" in days, since given the speed of ark days are rather arbritrary. They have a maturation progress bar on their HUD, which they grow in real-time, and they're known as Babies < %20, Juveniles <%50, or Adolescents <100% depending on their maturation progress.

So yeah it definitely could be a significant time & skill investment to breed a master race of super-dinos but... aren't kids in real life? ;)
(ok, that came out wrong! :)

Have fun all, and as mentioned, this is just phase 1 first pass. I plan on several additional layered systems as we proceed, including random mutations and family trees, and soon enough, mammalian pregnancy.

All the best,
Drake"
