Hello ARK Survival Evolved runners the mod team is currently wanting to create a new any% glitch less category for the runs and want your input on it! You can put your thoughts in this google form https://forms.gle/nsxgvY91LkEEuRMe9 . In around a week we will talk about what is going on and whether or not the category will be made!
No idea if this game has a discord, but if it does the link is invalid. Also have a question. For full game can you summon for cards or no?
So I have a few questions about the pokedex completion category. I know there has already been a fourm about this however no questions I have were ever directly answered in this fourm. 1.) Can the run be segmented (take brakes at points after maybe about 3 hours due to the length of the category without any time loss) 2.) Are trade evos required since they are not obtainable (not to my knowledge atleast) in the game?
Hello my name is Frosty and I have been working on default speedruns because I don't want any categorys to be untouched here in ARK. One major problem I see with default difficulty (and really the reason no one wants to do it) is because of how long everything takes. Now do not get me wrong I completely understand why bisho would choose the category to be like this, however I feel like in at least full runs maybe there can be some Quality of Life changes? Maybe instead of Default Settings it could just be Default Difficulty. The settings I would suggest to be changed are :
Level Speed - This is just grindy as normally you want to be max level. It should not be as easy as it is in easy but even a 2x multiplier would help a lot here.
Harvest Amount - This is the biggest problem. In Full run you need to get around 2k (island) shotgun shells and 2-3 shotguns for a optimal strat to fight the bosses. Other runs do not need this as much such as QAT where the main goal is to craft an auto turret.
Being able to see where we are on the map would be nice.
Taming Speed - In QOB this would be helpful, however since the main goal of the run is to tame everything IDK if it would be best. Would probably bring a 100 hour run (estimate) down to about 70.
And many others. Again I understand the appeal of just doing it on default settings and will do it either way. Was just wondering if this would maybe catch the mods eyes since default is rarely ever ran.
I also have a poll going on here. This is for me to just see what everyone else thinks. The mods can look at this too if they want but I always find the polls results interesting. Anyways thank you for reading and I hope you have a snow day! -Frosty
For ARK Genesis 2 if you start up a new server on Gportal the default hexagon count is .1. This is not a problem in SP as it is 1.0. For MP runs will we be allowed to change it to 1.0 in the ini for Gportal?
Soon I am planning on doing some default Quick Auto Turrets, but I also want to do the full run for the same map. I want to know if I could make the turret then keep going and use it as both QAT and Full run since they are the same stats on default?
Are we allowed to use dedicated servers from our host or does that have the same problems as non-dedicated (for multiplayer). Also hi everyone new join the discord :p
I have found a couple missing creatures on the QOB list as well as some non tameable creatures (in Crystal Isles havent checked alot of them tho) from every list the titanosaur and the lipluerodon are missing , yet there is no rule saying you dont have to tame them. I believe that you should have to tame them, but that choice is out of my control. Also on the crystal Isles the creature "Glowbug" is not tameable (Not tameable at all I think) and Mantis are not tameable on that map due to no Death worms being available. I will check the rest of the list as well and update if there are any more problems I find
Hey guys my name is Frosty and today I want to talk about multiplayer speedruns. My goal for this year is to do every "complete the map" category. This includes all of the multiplayer speedruns. If you are interested in joining me for a speedrun then fill out this fourm. https://forms.gle/Zpjwb2ZE1uLBAWpUA . Thank you and have a good day :D
I have a couple categories I would like to run by the community to see what people think of them. First one would be official server difficulty run. This run would only be do able with multiple players, however all player groups would be put in the same group (larger groups are encouraged here), another is also tame all dinos. Taming one of every dino on a specific map. These speedruns would essentially be testing your knowledge of the map and how committed you are to finding rare dinos. Another one is a little ambitious but possibly a crypodless section. This would make runs that were done without cryopods before they were released on other maps (I think only 1-2 apply) good runs. Also could have runners make new strats for this specific challenge. The last one I had in mind was kind of a meme category. I believe that we should add a death% or a collect all of one item type(berrys, veggies, etc). Have a good day everyone!
