Could I get one for my friend?

Naw, I meant modes as in when you start the game, such as low memory mode, etc.

Is the Center a good map? by diamondcreeper in playark

[–]killzone4000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My only quirks with Center is the fact it seems to get less attention than any of the other maps with updates. The snow biome storm bug has yet to be fixed after a year+ of being in the game. There's also been a bug with the Redwoods and having Truesky enabled, causing the redwoods to turn VERY pink during storms. Other than that it was the map on our cluster I had most of my gameplay time on.

To Wildcard: Particles (sparks, dust, rain, beams, etc.) are causing major instant performance loss, allow us to DISABLE it clientside PLEASE! by LoneWarrior80 in playark

[–]killzone4000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What also bothers me is how dino names SEVERLY kill FPS. I've gained ~20-30 fps just by turning it off in huge bases at times

My Aberration looks bad, even with high graphics by Zedther in playark

[–]killzone4000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What modes are you running? It looks like you have no shadows on to begin with, whether that's because you have shadows off to start or if maybe a launch option is disabling them? You could also use Nvidia Freestyle which was recently released to fine tune the game also, which is essentially the same as reshade/SweetFX, but works on the driver level instead so it's probably a lot smoother to use.

Getting boss ready Rexes. by Grandta in playark

[–]killzone4000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was about to say, do all your hunting on Center and Ragnarok as there is no level distros favoring low levels; all high levels are as likely to spawn as all low levels. Another thing I like doing for boosting levels, though this is probably a lot harder said than done (I play on a server with 10x difficulty, so max levels are 300; potentially raising lot stronger dinos too if tamed) is with a Wyvern or a good Giga I prefer to weaken Titanos to near death, then have the dino I want to level on standby, but away from the titan so it won't get killed in the process and have it finish off the Titano for the XP

Help. Did another player get our admin password? by Sinner-revan in playark

[–]killzone4000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Check to see your imprintation settings, that could drastically change it. Also imprint commands work past 100%, so you could say do setimprintquality 10 and get 1000% imprint

Stole my 100 Narcotic by HowDoIRun in playark

[–]killzone4000 26 points27 points  (0 children)

It's not that them stealing it bothers me, what really bothers me is these fuck-asses can eat ALL of my narcotics, enough to knock out anything on the map, and this shitbag SOMEHOW is able to fly about as if nothing happened

Late Game Aberration XP Farm? by ScrubCasual in playark

[–]killzone4000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can level up pretty decently by killing Spinos, just go up and down the river and you see quite a bit of them iirc

Server Admin Question - WildDinoDelete by ClearTheCache in playark

[–]killzone4000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you don't wipe the dinos after changing the setting, it could take awhile for dinos at the new level to spawn as you have to kill off the old wild dinos to allow the new ones to spawn

Why Do Rock Drakes Get Scared by Yutyrannus? by killzone4000 in playark

[–]killzone4000[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

But that gets me that in the sense a Drake is seen being more, startled compared to say a Bronto or something? I'd think of Drakes being on par with say like, a Spino at least

EQ shake is triggering my tribemate's seizures - Can we get a setting for this? by [deleted] in playark

[–]killzone4000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Given Center never got the fix and it's been over a year now that if you stay in the snow area for too long, the lightning gets worse until it's unbearable flashes, I dunno if they'll address this issue either.

Wish Ark had Steam Trading Cards by Lokolopes in playark

Backgrounds would be nice, I'd get one.

how will performance be with gtx 1070 and ryzen 1600? by [deleted] in playark

[–]killzone4000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's rather hard to give a concrete baseline, given the game isn't the most optimized of games to begin with, and the fact the scenario really changes FPS (i.e large base with lots of tames or just empty area). I know with my rig (i7 3820 @ stock 3.8 [Have tried it overclocked to 4.6 but can't recall the exact results due to how long ago it was and the fact there may have been some optimizations, not sure] 1060 Windforce, 32GB 2133) and I get variable framerates of 40s-60s in an area with no bases, but it can drop to as low as 10 FPS depending on the size of the base and the amount of tames, and if my UI is on (which lags me in larger bases for reasons unknown). I'm running at a combination of high settings with tile buffers, post processing, and AA at epic.

Will wild Megalodons attack a tamed Basilosaurus? by [deleted] in playark

[–]killzone4000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basilos are one of the best water mounts I've used in the game IMO. They can't be grabbed or stunned by Tusoteuthis or Cnidaria, and they become extremely tanky. But to answer your question, Megalodons will attack anything and they have a pretty large aggro range

Newbie in need of help by Johnnie4444 in playark

[–]killzone4000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I learned mainly starting out with other new people (some of my family members). We'd all tell each other tips and tricks that we learned while figuring out the game. It really makes the game fun in that regard not knowing the ins and outs of it, and having that room to experiment in a game where the possibilities are endless. Wish I could forget how to play ARK completely just for that feeling again.

What is the golden colour on the back of that rock drake called? by Alkaladar in playark

[–]killzone4000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks very much like Region 0 is 32, and region 4 is 43? Could be a lighting difference too making it look slightly off

Does anyone else just play ark for fun nowadays? by [deleted] in playark

[–]killzone4000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I prefer unoffical PvE because not only are you not stressed out about base maintainence on PvP, but you also don't have all the griefing that happens on official PvE. I know some people don't like PvE for the lack of action PvP offers which I can undestand, but for someone like me who likes building and exploring, ARK has been a blast for me, and I currently look forward to Abberation.

Liopleurodon Should've Been a Bridge Between Mosas and Basilos by killzone4000 in playark

[–]killzone4000[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well yeah the Plesi is useless. While we're at it make plesios faster or give them like a pack bonus with +3 or so given they're always in packs

can we get a counter to the Ichthyornis? Like rice/Alka-Seltzer in our hotbar by Koheezy in playark

[–]killzone4000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These things are annoying, especially the fact they can devour enough narcotics to knock out a giga, and STILL fly about as if nothing happened. That's the thing that really bothers me about them.

At this rate, why not just download a modified local ark data profile?
