Okay, I took the plunge...
I'll download overnight tonight, and join y'all for some Dino delight tomorrow :D
HA! winning ... you won't be disappointed
ZA RMR is the server, it is set on harder difficulty with some small tweaks to taming 1.5x and some others because no one really wants to wait 5 hours for a lvl 80 bronto to eat 9 million berries.
Pop is not high so you would have pretty much the pick of your spots and group lvling is pretty quick anyway.
We left the mweb server because of the Ng clan and what looks like admin abuse but as Phatso says hard to prove.
With this new taming bonus the dinos are nuts, now wheres my lvl 121 birdy...
Kalgat... where are you based?
We are getting set up pretty nicely... but still on the south coast.

nice!
Exert from Geth's Journal: Day 1
I arrived on the island yesterday. Rocking my birthday suit and working on my tan. I have kept myself busy by eating my own poo, losing fights to dodo's and levelling up on the south west corner.
We need to find you and show you the way toouryour Palace.
It is a beautifully picturesque rustic Cabin, built lovingly over a double waterfall in heart of the South Western Wonderland.
It boasts spectacular vistas and enticing wildlife and is home to many comforting resources.
The frolicking beach setting lends well to burgeoning survivors, offering many rewarding activities which include exciting tasks such as Mr Woodsons lumberjack impersonation, Mrs SeaLeighs Stone curator dance, Sergeant Buds botanist society specimen collection to name but a few.
Come see the sights and sounds of the wild and join the tribe.
Hahahahaha Geth&Lee, Best!!
I noticed there isn't a ARK server available for rent in SA?
Do you guys play on international servers?
no, local servers, you can litterally run your own server there is a dedicated server option where you dont need to own the game
Thanks for the intro last night guys, was good to get into the grrr clubhouse and kit myself out with some gear.
Sjoe, but you guys have been busy.
Liking the game so far, although it's clearly very poorly optimised at looks like shit on my PC at playable settings.
The potential is there though.
We know the tricks to make it look good and be playable - next time you are on, we will adjust mkay?
Thanks Lee, happy for the assistance :)
Uber Tower mission has begun.
4 x 4 Tower Base has been placed below the waterfall at the mountain in the North West (our Base 2.0)
Massive XP for building and leveling.
Mission: To reach the Gods / Sky limit - or see what the limits are.
Foundation 4 x 4 (16 Foundations layed)
Walls must be two layers high per level
Ramp to each level will therefore be two Ramps
15 Ceiling Panels per floor with one hole for Ramps
Placement of Ramps and holes so that it is an Easy Run Up.

Challenge accepted :)
But.... why do the ramps have to go clockwise? :D
That is so last year!
That is one project for the tribe. The other is, to tame a Megladon to harvest oil. This will have to be a group effort when there are a few of us on.
we started the tower last night and its getting there... poor forest though
Wow! Can't believe it too me til this weekend to get started in Ark. WHAT A GAME! Get IT! GET IT NAO!
Side Note: I have completed stages 1 and 2 of the Eerie Eyrie...
EDIT: Yyyyectic underwater base: https://youtu.be/wvv-GEHjTv8?t=18m47s
So must i get it?
Tigger, the ONLY thing missing from this game is you, boet. It's not a real grrr MMO unless the big boss is there.
if you are prepared for a game to suck your life away then yes.....tis epix
Fuck getting it!
I will do the same come next week.
All the good feedback is making me quite keen to try this game. Perhaps I'll have to indulge myself and buy after payday.
do it Shadey!! I'm going to buy it as soon as I get my pay
Tribe is growing rapidly
i like the rapid growing... more mats!!!!!
No need for more mats... we got the dinos! :)
We need building and manufacture mats, Morph, you lazy bugger.
You should know by now Morph is just there to undermine the whole operation
Tonight is cave raiding night. It seems likely that I will be able to leave work a little early. Are there any resources/weapons/anything else that I can gather to hasten our departure readiness?
Next Mission... Demolish the bottom sections of Sexy's Eyrie... to see at what point the whole thing collapses.
Le sigh, I'm going to crack: I have to burn through 450GB of downloads before the month end...
How beeg is this?
Big enough... Get it!!
About 6 Gigs, Bruce.
I've been reading some Q&A from the game devs, here are some select snippets that I found interesting:
The whole article is here: http://steamcommunity.com/app/346110...7600545122958/Quote:
Can you tell us more about the Vehicles?
That's still in the conceptual phases for post Early Access, but we're thinking of jeeps, boats, and helicopters to begin with.
Can we build Underwater at Early Access launch?
Underwater base building will be partially in at Early Access launch: you won't be able to build vacuum sealed underwater bases, but you will be able to build in underwater air pockets that are like mini-caves embedded in reefs along the ocean floor. However, building out the technology tier that will include vacuum sealed structures is a post Early Access priority.
