I'd hop on for this as I enjoy these sort of events, but I will be at work :/

Maybe plan some more down the road :D

Enjoy all!

Thanks JAS, our "lets have a look at it with disposable Rex's" turned into a kill!

Yes thanks to all - particularly JAS - who helped get the necessaries together and have led the way in this.

I'd be good to keep going but perhaps we need to take responsibility for collecting the various parts. I'm also going to set up a more formalised night or two for dMw collecting - I'll post up in due course.

I'd like to join for any such events.. work allowing.. although I am significantly ill-equipped, so would need to ask for help with dinos/gear... If this is an issue, then no problem at all.. I will offer my (im)moral support

He didn't, the all the dinos started helping whitey and me who were furthest forward and getting attacked as soon as we spawned. Luckily my dino spawned next to me, but as we were getting attacked all other rex's who didn't have riders jumped in.

Maybe next time listen to what's going on and realise it was active as soon as you enter and there is no time to sort out dinos, hence the call to grab any you could.  So rather than moaning about it maybe you should show some gratitude for the work that went into getting it organised.

Thanks for arranging JAS. I expect more soon :flirty:, let me know if there's anything I can do (I'll look into the other caves a bit, we still need to do the one where Sith used to live).

@Sneaky, mind you, we didn't knew what to expect exactly and how this was going to be. I was lucky to jump over the T-rex's and saw my shiny red saddle. Now we know that you don't spawn on the T-rex you were riding in on.
For a next run I'll look into some YouTube vids but this time going in like this was fun for me. My Trex didn't take loads of damage, I think it did help out that it got rider-imprinted on which got it an extra offensive/defensive damage boost off 30%.

Caverun anyone?

firstly: thanks to jas for putting it all together.
secondly:i could'nt grab any dino, as soon as we ported in the dino's went in i did'nt get as chance to get on a dino
thirdly: if you think i'm moaning i'll just forget playing ark.

if people have a problem with me, talk to me about it, u always do things in ark in your groups and i'm solo most of the time nobody asks if i'd like to help.or need help.

To be fair it was all rather chaotic. 20 Rexes huddled in a little circle is going to be intimate no matter what.

None of us really knew what to expect when we teleported in. The fact we were all thrown from saddles threw me. I just pressed ride as soon as I was able and jumped on the first available. They did go into auto-attack mode pretty smartish and once in extraction was almost impossible given the writhing mass of bodies.

Next time we'll know what to expect and everyone will need to be on the ball to remount.

Regarding gameplay, you have only to offer help or ask to be helped and it will happen. First thing I do when I come on is ask what we're up to and what we're doing. Then I'll tag along to help whatever anyone is doing (Normally coupled with some free smart arse comments*). If I need help I just ask and will get it**.

Not being too blunt Sneaks but we we all building in the south at the first base, hilltop, then (IIRC) you left and built a solo base up North. When that didn't work you came and set up opposite mine.

I didn't take you up on your offer of building in the snow zone and I plain don't like it as a biome. There's also a massive base been/being constructed not far away so I didn't' really see the point. For me, a raft with room for a bird and and bear suffices. I only go for the obsidian and a bit of off-piste. I'm keeping building to a minimum (Gortex built ours mainly) and land tames to a minimum.


* Once again I point out that my umm, dry, sense of humour can be a little close to edge. No offence meant by any of it .... beside which you guys give as good as you get :)
**Apart from JAS who promised to help me build my bridge and failed spectacularly (git).

Thanks so much for the monumental amount of breeding and equipment gathering dudes, the rewards for me GREATLY don't match up to the effort that went into getting it killed, but it was awesome fun either way.

I'm glad I managed to survive hop-skip-and-jumping over baby spiders to find my silly Rex that got itself to the back of the room!
Roll on the next boss! :boxing:

Also check out that 1 guy's comment: Penfold0110. I hope the spoil-timer is gone though....

I'll post a screenshot later tonight of the upload towards the boss.
Also be doing some breeding and searching again for high end animals...

Woah that's not me and someone has blatantly plagarised my name and my avatar.

I wouldn't mind so much except their grammar is awful. :eyebrow:
