As a man or woman left naked, chilled, and starving to death on the shores of the mysterious island of ARK, you must hunt, gather resources, craft items, cultivate the land, discover technologies, and build shelters to survive. Use your wits and resources to kill, tame, breed, and travel on ancient creatures that sweep through the lands. Cooperate with hundreds of players or fight to survive, dominate... and escape! The following aspects have been in the game since day one of the Early Access release. We have many more aspects and improvements in the long-term development plan, and here is what you can experience in ARK currently:TAMING, TRAINING, HATCHING AND RIDING DINOSAURS, IN A LIVING ECOSYSTEMTinosaurs, creatures and breeding! -- more than 50 to start with in the Early Access version and more than 100 planned for the final version -- can be tamed through a challenging capture and affinity process, including weakening a wild creature in order to render it unconscious and then restoring it to health by feeding it the appropriate type of food. Once tamed, you can give your pet commands, which he can follow depending on how well you have tamed and trained him. Pets, which can reach higher levels and eat food, can also carry supplies and equipment such as armor, depending on their strength, they can bring prey to the base, and larger ones can be ridden with full control over them! Fly a Pterodactyl over snow-capped mountains, move allies over enemy walls, traverse the jungle with a pack of Raptors, traverse an enemy base on a giant Brontosaurus, or chase prey on the back of an angry T-Rex! Be part of the dynamic life cycle of an ecosystem with its predators and food chain, where you are just a creature among other species fighting for dominance and survival. Pets can also be paired with the opposite sex in order to selectively breed successive generations using a system of genetically inherited traits. This process takes into account both the egg hatching cycle and the mammalian gestation cycle! To simplify, breed and develop Dinusie! FOOD, WATER, TEMPERATURE AND WEATHERWhat you need to eat and drink to survive, different types of plants and meats (including human meat) have different nutritional properties. Ensuring access to running water in your home should be your priority. Every physical activity requires water and food, long journeys quickly become tense struggles for survival! Your equipment will make you move slower, the day and night cycle with random weather conditions add more hindrance by changing the ambient temperature, making you hungry or thirsty even faster. Build yourself a campfire or shelter, create clothing from a wide range of clothing and armor to protect yourself from physical damage and extreme temperatures using a dynamic insulation calculation system! COLLECT, BUILD STRUCTURES, PAINT OBJECTSWith forests full of trees and extract metal and other valuable resources, you can create elements of massive, multi-level structures made up of complex interconnected parts such as ramps, beams, pillars, windows, doors, gates, flaps, pipes, ladders, generators, cables and a whole range of electrical devices. Structures are designed to collapse if enough supporting elements are destroyed, so it is important to strengthen your buildings. All buildings and objects can be painted to personalize your home, you can also place pixel-by-pixel markings, billboards, and other decorative elements. Shelter will help you survive extreme weather and provide protection for you and your belongings. Weapons, clothing, and weapons can also be painted to express your own unique style. PLANT, GROW AND NURTURECollect seeds from the wild vegetation around you, then plant, water and fertilize them (all creatures are subject to physiological processes, and their effects can serve as a great fertilizer) in the farmlands you have created. Take care of your farms and they will continue to grow, providing you with access to rare and tasty fruits that can then be used to cook a plethora of useful recipes and create handy tonics. Explore the island to find even the rarest types of seeds with extraordinary properties! Vegetarians and vegans are free to grow and even conquer the entire ARK in a way that is devoid of any violence! SUMMON ULTIMATE LIFE FORMIn bringing the right rare sacrificial items to specially designated locations, you can catch the attention of one of the mythical creatures in ARK who will show up for battle. These giant monsters provide the ultimate goal for most experienced groups of players and their creatures, and will provide extremely valuable items if defeated. S
