So I haven't really been in an ARK-y mood this weekend, I don't think you guys have really been on either, and aside from the fact I'm working most of this week I'll also probably be back to full-time hours relatively soon. I hate to suggest it, but do we just want to call it quits on SPQR? It just feels like we're already starting to spin our wheels as is, and at least on my end of things it isn't going to get any better.

EDIT: Um, so apparently I was misinformed on work for this week, I'm just on stand-by to fill in as/if needed since one of the other guys is away this week. The point still stands though, as I'll be back to full hours soon either way.

Last night I was thinking of designs for what would basically be an ARK version of Monster Hunters' Dragonships. Just for laughs, I mean it really would be more for looks than practicality.

Today, I see the Basilosaurus dossier; a large whale that lives near the surface with a group of followers who eat the scraps from its kills. Its blubber can be refined into gas, making it a prime target for hunting.

It seems the universe is having fun again.

It's also worth noting that it's normally friendly to people and is a passive tame like the Ichty's, but trying to tame it ticks off the followers. Or is supposed to, anyway. Basically they get mad that they aren't getting any of the food.

Aside from that it regulates the riders' temperature and heals fast while near the surface, but the downside is that it sounds like it might actually take damage if it goes deep enough.

Having a vicious entourage is cool but it being passive is actually really disappointing, I like my Basilosaurs like I like my women: cuddly but also ready and willing to murder me and eat my flesh

Wait, no, not women, theropods. That's how I like my theropods. Easy mistake to make.

I don't disagree with you there. I really suspect the only reason it is that way is because they wanted it to be a passive tame, but there really isn't any way to do that if it's aggressive to people. TBH though, the whole taming system is a bit silly and stupid. I mean, you knock out a rex, keep it drugged and feed it, and then suddenly it's your big buddy that you can ride and have complete control over its actions. Passive taming at least makes some sense in that you're bonding with the creature/gaining its trust/domesticating it, though granted it would only really work on at least semi-intelligent herbivores. And don't get me started on the fact that passive taming only works on a few species for which it is the ONLY way to tame them.

Now as for carnivores, really the only thing that would make sense for at least the bulk of them is to raise them from babies, which would mean poaching eggs/newborns from the wild (or other players too, I guess). As an aside the breeding/growth mechanics would need to be re-balanced to go with that, but that's something they almost need regardless. And aside from that, while I can appreciate it from the standpoint of gameplay, really anything bigger than a raptor, carnivore or herbivore, should have some manner of rage mechanic not unlike the Giga. You're just a puny human on the back of a much bigger and stronger creature. If and when that creature spooks and its instincts take over, there's not a heck of a lot you can do about it. Again, I can appreciate from a gameplay standpoint why that wouldn't maybe be included, but at the very least if a Giga can go bat s*** on you then there shouldn't be any reason your Rex or Spino isn't capable of the same.

And I'm going to stop right there before I drift any further onto the topic of the Giga, because that's a whole other rant of its own.

Nonsensical taming mechanics aside, if you choose to make a creature who by all rights should be aggressive into one who is totally passive just so you can tame it in an irregular fashion, I call that bad game design.

The following is a series of quotes of messages between Sigma and I on steam following my session of play this afternoon. I apologize for the heap of typos and any other mistakes, and also if any language got through that I missed.


Quote:
 
DinoFlame: So I have a bit of a story to tell you
agSigma314: Oh?
agSigma314: An ARK related one I presume?
DinoFlame: I started off my day in ARK with a couple metal runs and grabbed a drop or two. I've just got one and a half forges left to fill now.
DinoFlame: There was a level 34 Argent near my base so I decided to tame it just for an extra body to carry metal a supplies in the future. So I down it start taming, and half-way through what do I see other than the Alpha Raptor I spotted the other day, right outside my base, fighting a pair of Doeis.
agSigma314: Oh, this sounds good lol
DinoFlame: So I run into my base and set my two tamed birds to follow knowing their air support will be of help, and hop on my Anky since it is both tanky and pumped in attack too. I get back out and watch it fight the Doeis, until one curls up and then it buggers off out into the water before coming back half way down the beach and going for a Galli that leads it off to god-knows-where.
DinoFlame: So I keep my Anky and birds with me, and down a stego for prime to finish up my argy tame. So all that goes good and I get it a saddle, and then I decide that my three Argies can probably kill that Alpha Raptor, besides the fact I didn't want to have it around, so we set out to kill it.
DinoFlame: Since I can't see a thing in the forest I just follow the beach over towards my snow fort, the way it had ran with the galli, and finally I find a glowing raptor over basically right at my fort. Except this one is red, and the one I had seen before was white. And oh look, there it is just a few hundred feet away so there now not one, but TWO Alpha Raptors, yaaaaay!
agSigma314 is now Away.
DinoFlame: So I engage them with my three argies, one lvl 20ish, the new one somewhere in the 40s to 50s, and me on the best one in the mid 90s. My two follow birds basically both split up against each of the raptors to start, while I turn my focus on the white one since I had seen it was only something like lvl 12 or so and I hoped to take it out quickly. So long story short I drag the battle eith the white raptor back over to my fort, during which time the red one has buggered off and is nowhere to be found. so me and my birds wail on the white one and take it down. I got a level, the bird I was on got several, I got two Rex Helmet skins, an Apprentice Metal pick, and completely useless ramshackle leather helmet and aprentice cloth pants (really, why?).
DinoFlame: I get something like 120 prime meat off the alpha kill with my pick, and load it up onto my argie hoping it will last long enough for me to at least get another argy of any level down so it doesn't all just go to waste. So I run my birds back to base and pick out a lvl 64 argie just down the beach that I engage. I kept hitting it good with arrows and was sure it was about to go down when suddenly I wasn't being attacked and the music stopped, so I assumed it had gone down. I look around for a minute and don't see any sign of it, and at this point determine that the darned thing did not go down and actually ran away and never came back. Now at this point I'm down to under 20 tanqs and that argie is long gone, plus the prime is probably now long since spoiled and if it isn't it would be by the time I tried to bring anything else down. So I decide to cut my loses and head back to farming metal, except that never happens.
agSigma314 is now Online.
DinoFlame: Now, to remind you, I had just been looking around my area seconds ago for a good part of a minute looking for the thought-to-be-downed argy. There wasn't anything near me, and the only things in sight were the stegos and ankys and doeds that had been around all day. I think nothing of hearing two loud steps being taken behind me, because of course I just looked around and there was nothing big in sight. "Oh, it's probably just a stego" I think to myself. Something hits me from behind before I can turn around to confirm what had made the noise. "Aw heck, it's a rex," I think to myself before realizing that single hit had broken all of my flak armor. I have the time to think "OH SH-"
DinoFlame: ~You were killed by a Giganotosaurus (Level 54)~
agSigma314: XD
agSigma314: That is awesome lol
DinoFlame: So I respawn at my base, hop on my bird and... eeyup, sure enough, there's a nice iguana-green Giga within a few hundred feet of my stone walls. At this point I think, "Hmm... I'm 99% sure I just downloaded the new patch with the three new creature before a sarted up. *Maaaaaybe I should go ahead and clear things up so they spawn.*"
agSigma314: XD
DinoFlame: *Read the part between the brackets as, "I'm not putting up with this s***, screw this."*
DinoFlame: command; destroywilddinos
agSigma314: The best part of this is the fact we talked yesterday about your not even seeing any Gigas lol
DinoFlame: And the Giganotosaurus maaaaagically disappeared! The END! :D
DinoFlame: lol, I know right. The whole time I was thinking of the irony. XD
agSigma314: That is literally the best lol
DinoFlame: "Yep, Sigma, it's really not so bad up here! Worst I've had at my base is a few Rexes, and worst I've seen in the area was an Alpha Raptor up on the mountain. The north is pretty cool!"
agSigma314: XD
DinoFlame: Be advised I might re-post this whole story and your reactions on Genome in a bit. :P
agSigma314: It's all good lol
DinoFlame: And by "might" I mean "100% certainly"
DinoFlame: lol
agSigma314: You have my blessing lol
DinoFlame: So that was my fun for the last hour and a half-ish yeah. XD
agSigma314: Its the ARK's revenge for you killing the two Alpha Raptors!
agSigma314: You were punished!
DinoFlame: I only killed the white one... as I said the red one buggered the heck off half way through and I never saw it again
agSigma314: And the vengeful gods of the north saw fit to punish you for your transgressions of calling their area 'liveable'
agSigma314: They took that Alpha raptor that fleed and transformed it into a monstrous form!
agSigma314: To exact their vengeance upon you! You must perform the sacrifices to appease them! lol


Excuse me, while I now go take Sigmas' advice and hunt the mysterious "Pirate of the South" to appease my local gods with the severed head of their rivals' great champion.

Survivor, Katigura, asks, “Is there anything you guys can give/show/tell us about the older-dino pass?”

Sure! Here's a couple examples: Trikes will be given a skewer attack, Rex’s will be given a debuff flee-instilling roar, there will be Fish Meat, Dodo’s will be given the capability to be carried around by hand, and more!

So dodo-carrying and fish meat is old new, but thought I'd post this for anyone who doesn't read the digests. Gotta say I am looking forward to seeing how those new abilities turn out.

Survivor, UpFromTheDepths, asks, “What animals (specifically dinosaurs) did you want in the game but didn't make the cut?”

There are many, many theropods and sauropods that didn’t have enough to visually/functionally distinguish them from some of the ones we’re already doing. We want the ARK to be as diverse as possible, as much as we and others love their theropods/sauropods.

So we still got an undersized Diplodocus instead of Amargasaurus. Okay, sure...

Cannons at the more primitive level. Tek Tier will introduce Dino-mounted plasma weapons that can be fired while actually riding the creature.

Fresh off the presses, Moschops and the location of the Redwood biome being on the west side of the island confirmed.
The Redwood Forests being in the west makes sense even if you don't take the Red Obi being there into account, but now we know for sure. Also with this revelation, I'd bet with the utmost certainty that there will not be a desert biome added to the The Island.

Moschops? Cowardly? Great. They keep on perpetuating the misconception that any animal, no matter how big, is defenseless and cowardly as long it doesn't have 8 foot spikes covering its entire being.

I mean, the selective harvesting is nice, but still, WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?!

Dashing through the snow~
On a broken ski~
Over the hills I go~
Smashing into trees!
Now the snow is red~
And I'm almost dead~
Now I'm in the hospital~
With stitches in my head! :rolleyes:  :P

I second you guys on all accounts. I mean I can see it running from predators Carno sized or bigger, or even humans assuming that they've "learned to fear us", but still. Maybe if they were cowardly only if they weren't in a group could have been a decent half-way? IDK.

Also let's all face it, the in-game Moschops might look different from the dossier pic, but good lordy is it giving Derplodocus a run for its money.

Today, I'm going to be takin' these four fine folks into the biggest, meanest dungeon in the Forgotten Realms, and I don't know if they're gonna survive.
...But I'm cool with that.
