Don't worry about it, you were the perfect man for the job. I loved you being there and I hope they want you back next year, you deserve it. Thank you for the coverage❤
Spicy take, but ARK’s community is too entitled for their own good. If there’s a good new story map, it’s certainly worth the $20-$30 USD/Pounds/Euro. BTT is well worth $30 USD, I think a new map would be even better. The game needs money to keep development up, and $5-$10 here and there is (imo) absolutely fine for something I’ve poured 400+ hours into
While I think its a good choice to give Nekatus Valguero to rework his map for ASA.. the dude now has so many big map projects on his timeline.. hopefully he doesnt burn out :(
BISON! I FEEL VINDICATED! I KNEW IT WOULD COME. Also as much as I like the fact that we’re getting true blue ark on mobile and I still have the first variant on my phone, I’ll miss the little unique features the first variant has. It’s a little time capsule too.
I haven't heard anyone discuss this so I thought I'd bring it up here, seems like the most appropriate video to do so, but since Ark 2 is supposed to be more primitive I'm assuming Cryopods aren't going to be a thing and people are so used to having them and their gameplay being surrounded by the use of them....do you think Ark 2 will go back to how old Ark was before Cryopods...marching your boss army across the map, tames getting stuck/trapped in caves, needing MASSIVE areas for breeding/storing tames at a base, having creatures follow you back to base after taming etc? Or do you think they've come up with a clever way to integrate a primitive strategy to compare to a cryopod? Personally I'm down for full primitive, this is how you'd do it in real life like early Ark, but I know people have gotten so used to cryopods that if they do this I could see people losing their minds lol. I was just curious what your prediction on this topic was for Ark 2.
For Ark 2, if they plan to go primitive they could repurpose some dinos for carrying other dinos. Like, I'm thinking saddles with big hanging cages to hold full grown dinos and carry with them. Diplodocus would be perfect for this, or using it as an alternative saddle for Bronto and Paracer.
For the chibi issue you have 27:09 they mentioned during the stream that doggo shares your xp, so if you level up doggo levels up also, this would apply xp to a chibi the doggo has in its inventory as well as yours
i think wildcard will write the new map, while they're making ragnarok till crystal isles, than they'll develop it, its a perfect fit for after extinction to branch off, cuz the end credits off extinction show the earth being healed from element, since its corrupting planet earth. (correct me if i'm wrong) so we'll probably move on to an ark that has been cleansed off element. and maybe some powerfull thing in the likes off the overseer or rockwell, will want to test us.
I hope Armmadoggo’s updated following mechanics are a test run for them bringing something similar to every creature in the game. even if it’s not as advanced as Armmadoggo’s specifically.
There are some really interesting things coming with extinction. BUT we can't forget what other tames that will be coming too. Snow Owls and Velos are what I'm looking forward to.
They mean to tell people that they are sooo on top of every release date, that they created a new department for Ark Mobile??? Interesting...Look forward to them nailing it from now on.
My guess for the new cannon story map was either to connect Extinction with Gen 1 or connect Gen 2 to Ark 2...🤷🏻♀️ I'm curious to know your thoughts on the new vehicle. We had the Tek ATV but it never really seemed to take off much as a go to item widely used by players. Do you think these new vehicles will be a great longterm add, like cryopods, or just a try it and forget it item like the ATV ended up?
I may be in the minority here but I am ok with a NEW paid map. If they don't make enough money to be profitable we don't continue to get Ark content. That's how business works. If we have to pay 20-30 dollars for a new map which gives me and my group multiple months worth of playtime so be it.
My biggest question for Ark Mobile is that it’s currently not available in my region of South Africa,is it because they are preparing for the updated version?
An amazing year for reveals after last year's basically nothing. You did great presenting it too but now that we know you CAN do 24hr streams we riot if you refuse now 😂
I think Clubark is not rewarding for the time you spent. Whats the point of getting low level dinos? For many ClubArk is a waste of time cause flying to drops is more rewarding than getting the low loot from the Club. mostly the games are fine doing once or twice but having to grind the same few missions over and over makes you feel dead inside.
Great summary video. One thing though that... didn't surprise me really was their take on the engine upgrade and I think it was pretty clear that now they have an idea of what it does... it's not the performance boost touted when first announced. In fact, blaming the engine for server performance was very telling of what to expect and why they are really not in rush to make an upgrade. As for the new story DLC expansion having a price tag, I'm fine with paying for genuinely new quality content. But... the damn game needs to be working well and looking good first, in order to be able to enjoy it and on console it has been progressively becoming worse and honestly sucks so much, I don't even bother playing at all. Also, I'd much rather they stuck to making new DLC over wasting dev time on remakes of old community maps or at the very least redesigning Gen1&2 maps entirely as they were really the worst DLCs released.
10:37 no way those were fake humans. Everyone knows Ark was originally dreamed up and created by a pair of dodos. Probably tek dodo. You can not believe your eyes there Raz.
Create the problem and then sell them the solutions instead of fixing them. Typical. My jaded take on the new monetization policy aside, if I had realized you were hosting and not just guesting I would have tuned in for a while, but I was feeling poorly(Fuck Long Covid). Good to see the amount of money raised for a good cause.
I don't think they should make the new story map a paid dlc Because if you paid for the base game and nothing else. All you have is ASE That looks prettier. And a new u I and a couple of dinosaurs. At least with the new dlc You could argue that it's worth 40 bucks.
@@Raasclark While I already knew beforehand ASA wouldn't be free as they were saying. That was to be expected. All fine. The dlc they have been releasing is heavily overprices, and even worse, putting dino's in our games we can see, getting attacked by, and getting lured to spend money on it basically. We all know there are some heavily cashgrab moves done by Wildcard/Publisher company. They are short of money etc. Nekatus started working for the company thinking it was fine for having full on monopoly on servers and making them more expensive. Yes it's smart and good businesst, from a humane standpoint, horrible. Just here to squeeze all that extra money out of the people. Yes Nekatus is head of mod development. But working for a company willing to do this type of things, makes it very questionable what they will force him to do, or he will simply get booted out. Now you being here at this event, hosting it, which is an amazing opportunity for you of course! And very happy for you to be able to develop yourself, but there is a major downside on this. To be on the good graces to them to be even able to do this. You can't really speak your mind about them anymore. I was always a bit weary about this, but you like to keep it on the positive side, which is the way you chose for your UA-cam audience, all fair. But you basically lost a bit of your freedom of speech, if you understand how I mean this. Not that you are being caged. But to keep this type of contact, you can't really criticize them where and when in the way needed to. If they would even listen, nothing bad towards you. But they are ceo's/business people, unless you have a bag of money for them, you are a ant walking by. ASA is getting more and more overpriced dlc. Paywalling dino's etc. And you basically went into bed with the company now. This is all my mere opinion of course. I'm sure I will see some stuff the wrong way in your eyes. Which is fine. But I do thank you sincerely for your time reading this and actually wanting to engage. :) I could type more, but I've said my more important points I guess. Will still watch your video's from time to time as I've been doing. :) They are entertaining, even for a 35 year old.
@@Raasclark I typed a big story and it disappeared sadly. Idk where it went. Probably was too long for UA-cam comments. :) Sorry. Don't wish bad mojo here. So other commenters who wanna take a hit on this. Please don't, I am not here for a youtube comment 'fight'. :) You are always a more positive guy so.
Wasting time on making ASE mobile is such a waste of man power. They should have all hands on deck working on ASA. Wildcard management and leadership is absolutely terrible.
@WalterEKurtz-kp2jf yes I do u clearly don't play ark n u clearly don't remember the tek car that in ark lol this is not even a debate bro plz tell me any map where u can drive a car on in ark even if u go to island or tag n drive on the beach it's still sucks ark is all about getting around the map n a car not gonna get u anywhere

Raas ! Been a hot minute, well done on the extra life event, you're a natural, carried the show!
Well done on the Extra Life event. Enjoyed watching.
fantastic tames sould be mods tbh, having the choice to have them or not would be a huge upgrade
It’s great that the bison is being added. Ragnarok gets a unique creature again and now a slot in future voting rounds is open again.
Had a lot of fun on the stream man! Great to see ya 😁
1:11 my hands would become a bbq from walking forward
and the biggest reveal: Raas has legs.
Raas, you deserve to be the first 💚💚💚.
You are neutral if wildcard NEEDS a Shout YOU (us) will do it.💚💚💚. You did a great job 💚💚💚💚
For the chibi issue you have 27:09 they mentioned during the stream that doggo shares your xp, so if you level up doggo levels up also, this would apply xp to a chibi the doggo has in its inventory as well as yours
Riiiight
I CLICKED THE SECOND I SAW MOBILE
One of my favorite community creatures added to one of my favorite maps? YES! *Happy Ark Noises*
The dog sounds super op and helpful for solos
I would love to have a chibi riding the doggo 😂
You better be on next year's extra life Raasiwoo!!!
YAY welcome back Raas!!
Once fully complete, I think it would be really cool if Astraeos map was added to the main game, maybe in a mod map vote?
“Michael! Don’t leave me here! Michael! MICHAEL! HELP ME!”

Much love raas u did good homie

Y'all we cannot let ARK: THE ANIMATED SERIES fail please go watch it if you haven't. We need that movie 😂❤❤
GGs Raas that was a blast
My guess for the new cannon story map was either to connect Extinction with Gen 1 or connect Gen 2 to Ark 2...🤷🏻♀️

Buy proper pc. This game works fine since months already
