It's a PVE server so no need to worry about getting killed by other players and every person I have encountered on there has been very helpful. I had never played prior to playing on that server so I had tons of questions. Afaik yes moving servers resets you back to lvl 1.
It may be worth the 2 of you playing together on your own server so you can get a handle on the game and its mechanics. My GF and I have been watching a lot of vids of this game in past few weeks and really want to get it and start playing this weekend. Anyone have a recommended server for beginners? Not sure what map we want to play on yet or how that works, do you have to start a new character on level 1 if you change map/level?
Hey Mate,I started playing probably two months ago, have loved it ever since. I started playing on 'The Center' which was a free dlc map. Not sure if it still is. That was awesome.
I would suggest starting on a PVE server as well, there are heaps within the internal server browser for ARK. I would advise playing on a server which has increased rates (by this I mean, you gather resources faster, you tame dino's faster and you level up faster). Just means you don't need to sink as much time into it. DWhat's the Scorched Earth optimization like on PC? I love vanilla ARK but (as with probably everyone else) runs as a tentative slideshow on my PC.═CHRIS═ writes..

Runs much better for me than the vanilla map. Just had to find a sweet spot with the settings. Ravensbane writes.. Runs much better for me than the vanilla map. Just had to find a sweet spot with the settings.
Yeah that's the same for me with the Island map – had to find that sweet spot between eye candy and performance. Scorched Earth runs much better than vanilla Ark because: 1.
Barely any trees to render. Barely any water to render. It's just sand, rock and sky. Finally killed a rock elemental and wow did I get a surprise when its corpse yields Crystal, Metal, Obsidian, Oil, Stone, and Sulfur. One stop shop! I can't stand the SE wyverns compared to the Annunaki versions so hard to aim/hit anything. Ravensbane writes..

It's a balance thing. Not being able to aim/hit a target reliably is hardly "balance" imo. AU/NZ] 1. 4/0. 9 [X3. ALL][THE CENTRE]DEDICATEDMods. Structures+Stargate.
Joans Egg n poop collector. Res Glass. RAWR beacons+ others. Give it a try and stay if ya like. Was just looking at upcoming patch notes and saw this. Upcoming Version: v. ETA: October 1. 0- New Feature: Procedurally Generated ARKs! EXPERIMENTAL INITIAL TEST!
Would this be procedurally generated as in by a seed number like in other games? So randomised maps?
Would be amazing if so. Anyone played a Procedurally Generated Ark map yet? Anyone played a Procedurally Generated Ark map yet? Oh thats enabled now? Will have to check it out.
Just loaded Steam to find a 3. Ark, so probably is nowan. Just loaded Steam to find a 3.
Ark, so probably is now. Watch Online Watch Night Drive Full Movie Online Film there. Yup. Got about 3. Managed to have a go of a randomised map last night. Took ages to generate which is understandable I guess. Used to relying on the spawn locations being Easy, Hard etc. This time picked a south one and got dumped on a snowy island quite far from main land with a t- rex and few woolie mammoths. Tried swimming to main land and got eaten by a large fish/dolphin thing.
That was the extent of my playing. Will try more today if I get a chance.
I love starting out on Ark, that's the survival- est part of all, when you have nothing and everything is a threat, you have to build yourself up from nothing until you're safe. Unfortunately, flying critters make the game too easy – as soon as you have one tamed flier, the game is easysauce. I'd love to run a game where there's no fliers.
It would be a lot more challenging. Obey The Fist! writes.. Ark, that's the survival- est part of all, when you have nothing and everything is a threat, you have to build yourself up from nothing until you're safe. Totally agree. The earliest phases where you have basically nothing and everything is dangerous is one of the best survival experiences out there. The game bogs down once you start the super long tames or are having to protect your base somehow while you sleep. Obey The Fist! writes..

Scorched Earth actually helped with this since it removed two of the flyers. They could have gone further and remove the argy as well leaving just the Moths and Wyverns. I just bought this 5. USD)Is there any aussies that play this?
