Oh one question; I figure you’ve considered this already and maybe have your reasons for steering clear of it, but have you ever considered incorporating some of captain fat dogs round building concepts into parts of some new designs and building off of them? I’m pretty sure the entire ARK building community the world across has drawn from your influence, and I’d be super interested to see any input you might have on using and adapting that type of design too :D
From a Photographer and Videographer stand point this video was golden, from the unique angles, to the smooth transitions and the very time consuming overlays of numbers and arrows, you made a game video look professional congratulations.
U such a good builder i think u should do an Lets Play Series where u progress on the series u build stuff, imagine on the first episodes u just doing the basic but then u start getting rex and stuff so u build something for them but with a really cool design
Aaron Longstaff Ty, i had this idea because i like to see your building videos but u always use stuff that u just have acess later on the game so it would be nice seeing u do that with your own resources
I just did a 21x21 lol i spawned them in though and it still took like 2 hours to place the walls to the sea floor lol cant imagine hos long this would take normally
Just came upon your videos and I must say--phenominal work. The builds, the step-by-step, the music, editing. Huge fan, going to start my water pen and aviary tonight!
I just found your channel and I'm binge watching all your build tutorials now! I have to say they are some of the best tutorials I've ever seen: The builds look fantastic and are a great foundation to build off of, or tinker around with the details. Also, I can tell a lot of work goes in to making sure the process is easy to follow. Great work! Easy sub, and very much looking forward to many more tutorials in the future :)
So, this is my first Aaron build, took me a couple days (due to shear exhaustion lol) and made a couple of mistakes along the way, but nothing a little bit of engineering couldn't fix, and I am really pleased with the result. It's a beautiful structure! One I am definitely proud of. I will say though, no matter how many videos I have watched on technique and building tips, I have learned so much more following your template and learning your techniques simply by doing them, than I have by doing anything else. A lot of ah-ha moments were had, where I had building problems I couldn't solve in previous projects that I now understand. Also, it has to be said, this was quite the undertaking, I have an even greater appreciation for the time and work you invest in these videos not to mention the seamless editing that makes it so easy to follow. One of my proud moments was imprisoning that Ichthyornis in the walls, hope that water jar was worth it!
I saw one of your builds and now I'm binge watching all of them. I already built your tree house build and tweaked it a little to accommodate me more but you are the best youtuber/ builder I've seen. You got a new sub from me
Very, Very great video. I like how you didn't blabber through the whole video talking non-stop. You fast forwarded through the build in a time lapse fashion. You actually presented a video how it was titled and you didn't spend 22 minutes doing something else and 6 minutes doing what we actually clicked on the video for. Your illustrations were perfect. You taught me something about using Q on stone ceilings as well. Thanks so much!
I've copied a few designs of your but kind if made them my own too. I'd appreciate an egg pen buildings to collect eggs from, a giga pen, hatchery and a underground vault storage room :)
i love it, the only thing though is that if I do it, I've had to make either several of them or make one gigantic once to accommodate all my water dinos in one pen, which I don't think is realistic. but it gives me lots of ideas.
I really liked this build, i didnt do the roof part, but extended the stone ceilings out and did the aviary build right on top, had to make a few modifications but it looks super cool
It's funny, watching your old videos I told myself how nice it be to have a total count of the items used then lo and behold, the next video has just that. It's great for prepping.
Can you maybe build a mansion with all stuff in it what you need and just a house interior. just a cool big house that looks insane ! That is cool in my opinion .😊
Dude this build blew me out of the water (pun intended) what separates you from other ark builders is not just the builds you do but the fact you give DETAILED info on how to make it happen for others! I'm on Arahlis patreon server on rag and I will def be recreating and painting this gorgeous pen keep it up! I absolutely love it. ♥️
keep em coming Aaron. your building tutorials are awesome. I have used a few of them now. tweaked them a little bit to be more my own but they all work great! thanks!
Aaron Longstaff, you are so much fun to watch...like an artist I used to watch on tv. So relaxing and inspiring...Im gonna build this one to...already built the larger one you made...the large house and the Barn.... :)
Cool! I just changed my unofficial server over to the Center and have started a base between the two redwood spawn points where this water pen will work great
Who in their right mind would dislike this????!!!!! Anyway, Aaron, truly fantastic mate, just finished building this one as I liked it better than your first water pen. Going to paint it a mixture of blues and white. Keep up the good work fella, I am truly inspired!!!!
So won't lie I died a little inside when I realized how many pillars there will be in this. I'm not a skilled builder. Normally I build a reinforced box base but with Genesis 2 coming I trying to build pretty and I can say that building with pillars is my kryptonite. I don't have the patience for all the snap points. However this build is pretty and I will be building it. The only change I'll be making is making it bigger so I can keep all my water tames in it and can breed them as well. Thanks for such stunning buildings. Your videos have inspired me to come up with my own buildings and so far I have had great success.
Thanks Aaron i have just started playing ark and you have some beautiful builds. As soon as i find a nice location i will move and demolish my house with walls on backwards (too early game to fix) and a mix of thatch wood and stone. Fairly ugly as i do not have resources yet.
Great build! Just put this together on the server I'm playing on. The ceiling didn't quite turn out right for me, but I'm not good enough at building to fix it. Still works great for me, though!
Dude your videos are awesome! I built your mark 2 battle ship AMD love it! And I just showed my friend your watch tower and this video and can't wait to start building! Thank you for these amazing builds dude your the best!!!
I had to repeat the first part over and over. My eyesight is limited, but no matter how tiny I adjust, there seems to be no "half point" like you mentioned at 0:56. I've tried it a number of times. I'm using a PC and am new to this, so can you maybe elaborate on that for someone using a PC? Pressing "E" also doesn't flip the walls and such, so I'm a bit stuck there as well. Your indoor plumbing though? Priceless! :)
Id be interested to see what you can do with a industrial forge thrown into the mix. It kinda forces large barn type structures cause its like 6 tiles high. But i love this build, aesthetically pleasing to the eye.
Another great build! You truly have the best building videos. Easy to follow and pleasing to the eye. Any ideas for a base house for the new Ragnarok map?
Bonjour !!! Another great build, love this design with pillars and métal railings... I made your awesome breeding pen on my official server, it looks so Nice !!! Can't wait for your next vid, maybe a treehouse with stone pilars and glass wall LOL Thank you for your channel
Just finished this build. Ocean drop was much greater where I built it. Need to add several hundred extra pillars and walls. Also found if you intend to follow the build, dont craft in s+ or it causes issues. Overall, it's a nice size and looks great.
Thank god im in SP and have 40x everything.... Great builds and videos man. Keep up the good work. Request: Aviary to fit wyverns and griffins comfortably.
Aaron, these videos are great. This is the kind of stuff I watch before heading to bed. Nice and relaxing. One minor thing, could you add rough time stamps in the music list so when a new song starts I can scroll down and check the title and artist? Otherwise keep up the good work.
I like how you use a mix of wood and stone but do you think you could do some more late game type builds with metal and maybe even tek I think it would look really cool
Have a challenge for you! A bug pen! For centipedes, dung beetles and spiders. Something for you to dwell on haha 👍🏼 great work! I'm a big fan here buddy!
This looks amazing aesthetically, but I wanted a pen large enough to house a Mosa, Plesio, Basilo, basically two o every water dino Guess i'll just fence an entire chunk of the beach lol
all these requests seem super time consuming, he's human, yall.
+Future Hendrix 😂 only human that made me laugh My friend
Aaron Longstaff Human is a maybe, but having the beard of a Greek god is a solid yes haha

@@AaronLongstaff ily 🥺 such a great builder
From a Photographer and Videographer stand point this video was golden, from the unique angles, to the smooth transitions and the very time consuming overlays of numbers and arrows, you made a game video look professional congratulations.
U such a good builder i think u should do an Lets Play Series where u progress on the series u build stuff, imagine on the first episodes u just doing the basic but then u start getting rex and stuff so u build something for them but with a really cool design
Up
Yh Nice Idea
That sounds like a great idea my friend!!
Aaron Longstaff Ty, i had this idea because i like to see your building videos but u always use stuff that u just have acess later on the game so it would be nice seeing u do that with your own resources
Just finished building a bigger version of this and never want to see a stone wall ever again..
Innever want to farm stone after this build
I just did a 21x21 lol i spawned them in though and it still took like 2 hours to place the walls to the sea floor lol cant imagine hos long this would take normally
This is the exact reason why I have resources boosted to the max
MasterBizzy1, took me over a day
Elliot Knight I felt that after I finished building a massive base wall
Just came upon your videos and I must say--phenominal work. The builds, the step-by-step, the music, editing. Huge fan, going to start my water pen and aviary tonight!
I can see myself building this and just dropping an otter in
I-😭🤣
😂😂😂
I just built the whole thing for 2 Sarcos.
Lol
I felt this:)

Thank you my friend and welcome to the family so glad you enjoy the videos and thank you so much for the SUB!!!
@@AaronLongstaff im 5 years late but i realy like that u didnt use creative to build
I never want to hear the word stone ceiling again just finished building the 259 stone ceilings such a a trek

I used this build for pve official on the switch and really appreciate it as most of the videos are now geared towards the newer updates
Very, Very great video. I like how you didn't blabber through the whole video talking non-stop. You fast forwarded through the build in a time lapse fashion.

you make the absolute best build videos of anyone I've seen on UA-cam! keep it up. looking forward to your best already!
I've copied a few designs of your but kind if made them my own too. I'd appreciate an egg pen buildings to collect eggs from, a giga pen, hatchery and a underground vault storage room :)
Robert Kilpatrick wait what? they didn't build anything
Praecantetia meant to post that as a comment!
on my single player I've incorporated all of your builds to interconnect and be one. looks fabulous and flows really well.
Doing the same, I want to bring it to PvE as well though. Know any good clean servers? Maybe we could work together?
John SM I do if you still need one
Hey, how do you feel about a PVP?
my psn: Gigalosaurus
i love it, the only thing though is that if I do it, I've had to make either several of them or make one gigantic once to accommodate all my water dinos in one pen, which I don't think is realistic.
but it gives me lots of ideas.
I was going to add that on the end of the video you can however make the wall wider and longer!
Man the amount of time you put into these builds and videos is insane! Inspirational for sure
thank you, this one seems to be much easier to build & I really like the looks. This video was much easier to follow in building. thank you.
No problem glad you like it!
My heart broke when I read "Next we want to extend it by 15 ceilings". 😭 Sweet build though.
i just started pve and im binge watching all your building videos.Very detailed and extremely creative and helpful! keep it up!
I really liked this build, i didnt do the roof part, but extended the stone ceilings out and did the aviary build right on top, had to make a few modifications but it looks super cool
It's funny, watching your old videos I told myself how nice it be to have a total count of the items used then lo and behold, the next video has just that. It's great for prepping.
Can I just say how heckin gorgeous this build is, like all the props to you my man
Can you maybe build a mansion with all stuff in it what you need and just a house interior. just a cool big house that looks insane ! That is cool in my opinion .😊
Not only informative, but it was so relaxing watching you construct this. Thank you!
Loved this tut! About to finish it up on Island- amended the roof space to be a greenhouse build. Taught me a lot about building in ark in general !
Dude this build blew me out of the water (pun intended) what separates you from other ark builders is not just the builds you do but the fact you give DETAILED info on how to make it happen for others! I'm on Arahlis patreon server on rag and I will def be recreating and painting this gorgeous pen keep it up! I absolutely love it. ♥️
keep em coming Aaron. your building tutorials are awesome. I have used a few of them now. tweaked them a little bit to be more my own but they all work great! thanks!
Glad your liking the tutorials my friend it would be great to see some of the tweaks you have made!
I've used a few of your videos over the years. Thank you.
Personally, I would love to see your take on a taming pen.
Btw. I love your builds, keep up the amazing work!
Thank you my friend
Alex Slambambi
a fancy taming pen _would_ be interesting
Thank you. I'm trying to decide on a mega base for my solo play through. This (and many of your other builds) are definitely top candidates
Aaron Longstaff, you are so much fun to watch...like an artist I used to watch on tv. So relaxing and inspiring...Im gonna build this one to...already built the larger one you made...the large house and the Barn.... :)
U are ten times better than the other builder that I can't remember but u are number 1
Best hands down
GG fizz is whom I was think of
+Ethan Peters that's quite a compliment Ethan thank you! GG fizz is good at what he does he uses a lot of mods which can totally transform a build
Seeing you build an apiary would be pretty cool!
Great video, I have been really interested and inspired when watching all your videos
I love your tips and tricks videos. I've been building in ark a while and was surprised how much I learned from them.
The step by step instructions honestly is the way to go! Keep doing your thing man!
Cool! I just changed my unofficial server over to the Center and have started a base between the two redwood spawn points where this water pen will work great
This looks amazing. I'm going to try to make this out of metal and add more pens attached to it.
You deserve a large amount of subscribers, these builds are just simple, but way smarter/clean of anything i could ever think of
Who in their right mind would dislike this????!!!!! Anyway, Aaron, truly fantastic mate, just finished building this one as I liked it better than your first water pen. Going to paint it a mixture of blues and white. Keep up the good work fella, I am truly inspired!!!!
Thanks John send me a pic when its done I would love to add paint to my builds but the videos would be hours long haha
Strong Work Aaron! I appreciate the way you provided detailed text to communicate the finer aspects of building in Ark.
Thank you! I built this Last night on the Island and it's awesome.
Hands down best building tutorial video I've ever seen
So won't lie I died a little inside when I realized how many pillars there will be in this. I'm not a skilled builder. Normally I build a reinforced box base but with Genesis 2 coming I trying to build pretty and I can say that building with pillars is my kryptonite. I don't have the patience for all the snap points.

Thanks for such stunning buildings. Your videos have inspired me to come up with my own buildings and so far I have had great success.
Now this is what im talking about , really like it keep it up!
Just another amazing build!! Ironically, I just got this same location on Center from a base going up...WOOT!! :)
BONUS!!!
Indeed...cannot wait to build this and expand on it. :D
Thank you! A visually pleasing PvE Official server friendly build. I appreciate you and your work.
+Hunter 😊 thanks
Great build.. Finally found a youtuber that plays ark on xbox
Thanks Aaron i have just started playing ark and you have some beautiful builds. As soon as i find a nice location i will move and demolish my house with walls on backwards (too early game to fix) and a mix of thatch wood and stone. Fairly ugly as i do not have resources yet.
Great build! Just put this together on the server I'm playing on. The ceiling didn't quite turn out right for me, but I'm not good enough at building to fix it. Still works great for me, though!
Some of the best build ideas out there, thanks for another good one!
Another great build! When I want to build something awesome I look at your channel!!! Keep being awesome!
jesse kraus lol
Daeson Thyssen me 2
One of the best tutorials I have seen!
Thank you so glad you like it!!
Your videos just keep getting better dude keep it up!
Thank you Billy comments like that go along way!
Aaron Longstaff No worries just keep them coming👍
Dude your videos are awesome! I built your mark 2 battle ship AMD love it! And I just showed my friend your watch tower and this video and can't wait to start building! Thank you for these amazing builds dude your the best!!!
a well deserved like, this isnt just amazingly beauty but also cnidara proof which is what I was looking for. Great work!

I like the way you show the design, and the dementions. this video earned you +1 sub. I'm excited to watch the rest of your videos (:
I am definitely nicking your design, this is perfect :D
it's yours take it my friend
Amazing build! I take all my hats 🎩 🧢 off to you sir!
Props to the editing
You got me into building on Ark! Thanks!
also man love you're builds me and my tribe gave built almost all we love you're vids and how detailed and amazing they are
Bonjour !!!
Another great build, love this design with pillars and métal railings...
I made your awesome breeding pen on my official server, it looks so Nice !!!
Can't wait for your next vid, maybe a treehouse with stone pilars and glass wall LOL
Thank you for your channel
Thanks you my friend comments like yours go a long way!!
Four years later and the build still works. I'm using it on Lost Island. 💯😀
Glad you still like it!!
Just finished this build. Ocean drop was much greater where I built it. Need to add several hundred extra pillars and walls. Also found if you intend to follow the build, dont craft in s+ or it causes issues. Overall, it's a nice size and looks great.
Great build. Used it for my first ever water pen and have my mosa in there nice and snug lol.
Thank god im in SP and have 40x everything.... Great builds and videos man. Keep up the good work. Request: Aviary to fit wyverns and griffins comfortably.
+Zombie Slayer haha it's good indeed!! I will be building a large pen soon my friend
Congratulations on 10k subscribers.keep up on the amazing work
wow awesome :p was hoping for a big water pen build thank you
thanks and your welcome
All these building are expensive but are amazing
Hi, nice buildings, can you please make a garage for dinos? i think it would be the perfecto video.
Thanks for the awesome buildings
Aaron, these videos are great. This is the kind of stuff I watch before heading to bed. Nice and relaxing.
One minor thing, could you add rough time stamps in the music list so when a new song starts I can scroll down and check the title and artist?
Otherwise keep up the good work.
I like how you use a mix of wood and stone but do you think you could do some more late game type builds with metal and maybe even tek I think it would look really cool
Yeah I will look into this my friend was meaning to give the TEK stuff a go!
How many megs can you fit in this mate?👊🏻 amazing build by the way! As always!
Fantastic build! Thanks!
Just harvested enough for this build. Gonna give it a go by my base. Either way great video!
I have build house,waterpen and greenhouse with your help thank you :)
No problem Elisabeth
It will be nice when the PS4 and XBOX get the no-clip tiles eh? Love the builds... keep em coming!
Thanks for the awesome build!!
Just finished building this on official! Time to take a nap ^-^
the water is so crystal clear *.*
i raided castoroids' dams for your tuturiols.I haven't learn the stone ones yet but the wood is so tempting in those dams😂
It took me a month to complete 😢
u helped me thank u :) u made the best buliding videos on youtube
Wow this is a really good design, thanks a lot for sharing it. You won a new subscriber.
Another awsome build.. I made it extra wider 3 pillars wider maybe in the future will make it longer
You should do a tutorial on a pyramid base. Like a large pyramid base man!
This looked awesome thanks for the help
Nice dude very cool build gonna add it to my builds; )
thanks Baby Coco
Have a challenge for you! A bug pen! For centipedes, dung beetles and spiders. Something for you to dwell on haha 👍🏼 great work! I'm a big fan here buddy!
I don’t understand, how did you get the gate to snap?
I built the pen without then fences and house and i love it
This looks amazing aesthetically, but I wanted a pen large enough to house a Mosa, Plesio, Basilo, basically two o every water dino
Guess i'll just fence an entire chunk of the beach lol
Really nice builds 👌, subbed!
+Honk's Gaming thank you
nice to see that you are growing
Where would you build this on the island map?? I love the build just can’t find a good area to put it.
Pretty good job so far
