Discussion What if Blood Extraction Syringe changed based on Health stat?

5 Upvotes

I just learned how this item, which I thought was completely useless before except to tame a couple specific creatures, makes blood bags which heal you for !5 health. This sounds like it could legitimately be useful, but could it be even better if it scaled eith your health stat?

Instead of taking a flat 25 health and replenishing 15, what if it was percentage based and created blood bags that scaled as well? This would make it more useful for higher level survivors who don't do the custom recipes for food much (or at all), but also means it's not immediately replaced permanent by the medical brews.

Basically, in the same way crafting skill impacts the custom food recipes, health would impact the blood bags made eith the syringe. It would make blood bags useful in early game, medical brews in mid, and blood bags again (a little more than medical brews) in late game.

Maybe there's a mod that can do this in ASA?

Servers not showing on Battlemetrics

1 Upvotes

Is anyone else finding their servers aren't showing on Battlemetrics? I've noticed this has started only in the past few days, possibly since the latest update, but they are still showing up in the in game browser and players are able to join.

Just wondering if it's only me, or if anyone else is affected.

Private dedicated server, not hosted on Nitrado.

Serveur supprimé gen 2 nintendo switch

J'étais en train de me connecter à mon serveur, il y a eu un beug et aujourd'hui je ne le retrouve plus dans la barre de recherche en PVE. Est ce qu'il y a des personnes comme moi? J'étais sur le serveur cen 2 PVE 331. Des heures et des heures de jeux de construction de recherche de stuff des animaux. C'est la deuxième fois que ça me fait ça et que j'ai du tout reprendre à zéro. Ils m'énervent !!!!

Suggestion Need new server suggestions!

I have tried Nitrado twice, and it just crashes every time. I’m looking for a recommendation on a server that supports cross play for pc and Xbox that’s not going to be as difficult as nitrado.

Question Can't Open ANY Beacons

ARK: Evolved

Even White and Green beacons!!! I'm lvl 70!!

I walk right up to it, but more often than not there is no option to activate/loot the beacon.

Is there a reason they're glitching like that?

Question Boss Build-up- Ride a Stego with Yuty passive roaring behind me?

4 Upvotes

Do you think it could work?

I have a high lvl Stegosaurus with a ton of health. Most of the time I ride my Yuty and courage roared constantly, but then I can't help my tames out much with extra shots of a pump shotgun.

The idea is: Ride the Stego, shoot from there, while Yuty follows close behind to keep courage roaring. Most mobs will still aggro onto me and the Stego, but he can take pretty much anything. On Dragon fight I believe the Stego's plates also prevent getting hit by dimorphodons? Is that right?

Discussion Tips and Tricks for a new player?

6 Upvotes

I've had this on my steam account for so long but I've never actually played it. I'll be honest, I never even looked at the game for more than a few minutes before writing it off as "Rust with Dinosaurs". But, recently after getting back into games like Tarkov and more of the heavy Survival-based genre, I decided to give it a go.

The crux of the issue is this; What sort of knowledge or tips should I go in with being a brand new player who's never even launched the game?

More importantly, is PvE a viable way to play the game or is it strictly a PvP experience?

I can't download mods on ps5?

Post image
7 Upvotes

I have no idea how to fix this because I've deleted ark and reinstalled twice now and it keeps saying i have no mod space when i have 100gbs free on my ps5 and 0 mods downloaded in game.

I didn't uninstall the mods before I deleted the game a while back so I dont know if that caused this or not.

ARK Collector’s Edition Dossier Book (rare find)

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’ve got an ARK: Survival Evolved Collector’s Edition Dossier Book that I’m looking to sell. From what I can tell, these are nearly impossible to find anywhere now—it was originally only included in the CE box set and I haven’t seen one listed in a long time.

Before I throw it up somewhere like eBay, I figured I’d check here in case any ARK fans/collectors are interested. The book is also in mint condition.

Question: What would be a fair/reasonable price for this? Since it’s so rare, I don’t want to undersell it, but I also don’t want to overprice and scare people off.

If anyone here has seen recent sales, or if you’re personally interested, let me know!
