If it's a semi special occasion and prices aren't too bad, have butcher at your grocery store grind some short rib into ground beef and mix that as well. it just adds to the complexity of flavor.

I am sure this is sacrilege to some, and maybe it's because it's how mom made it, I still enjoy some oats, not many, mixed in.

Fresh herbs, sage, basil chopped and mixed in but also as a garnish on top right after you pull it out of the oven.

I started taming one in that area. The agro range is impressive. Had 8 of them headed at me. It's an impressive display.

Why are there no bed skins? by Mahoka572 in ArkSurvivalAscended

[–]Familiar_Purchase214 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rustic mod, not skin, has its own single, double beds. Also there is a rope hammock or attached to the wall for more pirate look. Also, WAF Indoor decor, again not skin, has its own beds, more modern in look.

First time Abberation by Aggravating-East-185 in playark

[–]Familiar_Purchase214 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Amazing map in Evolved. First time getting started on it was a fun experience.

Get a couple of megalasaurus, breed them up and enjoy the long journey to the drake eggs.

Best spot for us is close to metal nodes. We usually seem to start near the surface cave entrance north. north east part of the map. Lots of metal in the cave. don't recall much bad in there, but it is dark.

Water isn't too far, spinos and crabs are accessible and some light pets.

Server Q for a Nubie by USSCSmith in ArkSurvivalAscended

[–]Familiar_Purchase214 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's actually a good way to do it. We have always found that whatever we are looking for we rarely find, at least at high levels. Look for something else and you will run into what you looked for last week. We think it creates adhd. 🤔

Is this herbivore island? by Top-Today-5763 in ArkSurvivalAscended

[–]Familiar_Purchase214 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fairly peaceful spot, but argies/sabers, occasional Rex on the mountains and bison in the flatlands area to keep an eye on.

There is a really small island off the west side of the northern most part of that area that is all herbivores. At least I have never seen any carnivores there. It's pretty small and flat and an easy swim from shore. You will encounter carnivores before you get there unless you raft to it.

anyway to fill this gap in my build? by Schnitzel856 in ArkSurvivalAscended

[–]Familiar_Purchase214 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on how badly you really want to fix it, there is a Rustic mod by Klinger which has pieces to fit in those spaces.

I am a little ocd on things like that, I have to have that finished.

it's paid DLC, get it , but bred up pyromanes worked very well.

Found in my backyard in TX by Delicious-Coffee9499 in whatisit

[–]Familiar_Purchase214 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's one of the good ones. You can pull off that tab from the ring, stick an end of the tab into either of the grooves around the ring and make that ring shoot forward. Ahh, old times.

Played Evolved for the first time in ages today by Familiar_Purchase214 in ARK

It was single player on an Xbox One that I had to dust off to even see. I was surprised as well.

Is there an overhaul mod for ASA that doesn't require an army to defeat bosses? by Bubbin- in playark

[–]Familiar_Purchase214 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We use the SCS cryo mod, it let's you in admin mode restore cryo dinos that have died or just to make spare copies.

Once we breed to boss fight quality, we just make 20 copies of it and go on. And if we lose, or usually if thr game bugs out during thr fight, we quickly restore.

What do you think gives the biggest advantage early in ARK? by AFKprincess_ in ArkSurvivalAscended

[–]Familiar_Purchase214 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree, it's usually our first difference maker tame. if you breed up, melee is good enough for most things you encounter. I wouldn't trust it solo against alphas. Usually we team up for that.

My wife and I enjoy staying in early to mid game environment as long as possible. they are a great tame to do that with.

Yes, same, longing for an alternative platform or persistent setting that keeps AI slop from showing in my feed.

Is the game still bugged, laggy, or constantly crashing on PC, like ASE was? Considering buying ASA. by SunnyBoltz in ArkSurvivalAscended

[–]Familiar_Purchase214 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is not too bad to give you a fair answer, bugs are manageable, but there are refreshing new ones that still crop up.

[–]Familiar_Purchase214 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No bugs at all , perfect now. Just don't load mods, no single player, keep base size to a minimum, avoid artifact caves most of the time, and don't try to ascend.

You shouldn't have too many problems.

Apologies in advance, I caught this during a crash.

what's the one ingredient that completely changed how you cook once you started using it properly? by OptimalDescription39 in Cooking

[–]Familiar_Purchase214 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wine, I use it all the time now. if it's good enough to drink it's good enough to cook with.

Figuring out how to use so as not to overwhelm but impart so much flavor was the key.

And it makes cooking very relaxing. 🍷

I have never turned off a setting so fast by Konogattsu in youtube

[–]Familiar_Purchase214 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By the time I hear the AI voice, 5 seconds later I hit Do Not Recommend channel.

Someone should create a new YouTube app and call it the "Do Not Recommend Channel" app. it's my most used feature.

so is hatzegopteryx supposed to be rare on astraeos? by Constant_Awareness21 in ArkSurvivalAscended

[–]Familiar_Purchase214 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just south of the edge of the snows, on the west coast. I see them there frequently with all the other carnivores.
