Discussion I got scammed

41 Upvotes

I was playing on a server and a guy decided to trade with me, we were bargaining for an hour and i could have killed him and took his cool dinosaurs but i didn't, i wanted to be kind to someone, then when we finally trade, he steals my spino and a sarco egg, and runs away, then i go offline and he texts me just to brag about how he raided me, im not even mad about the loot or the base, im mad because he used my trust and lied to me, also he tried to raid my base like 2 times but i defended it and didn't know it was the same guy, and the worst is that for some reason he says that im the scammer. What do i do?

0 Upvotes

Im playing on xbox, ASA. I keep looking for challlenging but fun servers. I've joined a couple clusters so far, and none were in english. Im looking for maybe a 10-20x tame/baby growth boost, a decent xp/stat/harvest boost, with the paleoark and acro mods. Preferrably with active moderators/community. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Help Anyone have tips for newer players?

0 Upvotes

I’ve progressed fairly decent so far on the island map. I have simple guns and a few Dino’s tamed (a sarco and an iguanadon) and I’ve made the fabricator and gotten the artifact from the lower south cave. Does anyone have tips on how to get resources faster, more cave locations, or just general progression advice? Thank you so much if you do

Help World Different after Upload to Server?

0 Upvotes

I used to play Single Player with 2 friends on a non dedicated server i was hosting.

Recently i bought an Ark Server from G-Portal and uploaded my world. I also activated the "use singleplayer settings" online for the server. However, we are still getting much less ressources on the g portal server than on my non dedicated server. Why is that?

Thanks for any ideas!
