can we milk the dinosaurs?

[Kostriktor]

hi.
since this franchise has all become about milking.... i wonder if you could implement actual milking, since wildcard thinks content>performance anyways....
and well, if you have time, bring that performance upgrade already thanks you

Is this meant to be a funny thread? If it is "hahahaha". If it is not, the answer is no.

[Scraps]

You already can, its called knock out a wyvern and take its milk.

[Dracul]

Our spirit animal is the Wyvern = we exist to have things taken from us, get lured into a trap, and have even more things taken from us so more traps can be made to trap other wyverns and steal their things too.

[༒ǝꞁf⚣٩๏̯͡๏)۶]

Just wyverns.

There is an mmorpg called Mabinogi where you can milk cows. There might be other mmos out there where pet milking is a dynamic.

People milking other people for money is just real life. Ark isn't that expensive. If you wait for Steam sales it's a steal.

Bethesda (includes real life gambling) and EA are usually the worse with their microtransactions. Square Enix not far behind. For a 3d fancy game Ark is a pretty humble purchase.

As far as Mac and Linux they are not as easy to program for as a good ol Bill Gates thingy. They have a rebellion not fit in to the mainstream we are the people thing going that makes it hard to find an employee who knows what they are doing.

I think it is a mistake to provide Mac and Linux with a version of any game. I would never make a contract with Mac and Linux. No marketer would convince me otherwise.

Might be something in the future, Atlas you can milk the cows, just be careful with the cows with horns . ..

Milk all the egg-laying lizards, not the mammals?

Oh wait, in ARK, the only thing that gives milk IS an egg-laying lizard, not a mammal. Carry on.

[Wildsea]

Yes you can, but only males.

tons of games do multiple season passes now a days..... destiny 2 is going on its 3rd season pass in oct for example.... its the reason why its called a season pass.... its a pass for the upcominng season of the games content, its not a ALL ACCESS PASS , its a season pass.....

also on another note, i am also not a fanboy for this game as im sure some repling comments might say.... in fact i was gifted the base game and barely played it compared to most people all the way back in early access when it had mostly negative reviews due to preformance issues.... i only now just picked up the dlc (last night in fact) because the dlcs are dirt cheap atm... i know many companies that have games that are 5+ years old that still havent gotten a single pricedrop and only rarely have sales.... ark tends to put there dlc on sale during every major sale event and then some..... will i be picking up the new season pass for ark? most likely not, ill wait until the individual dlcs are cheap like i did with the previous pass..... i dont see why review bombing old good content is now a thing when new unreleased content is announced.... it is unhonest and makes you just as bad as the real greedmongers in the industry such as ea or activision

Which animals would you even milk? The only one you would realistically is the ovis, sheep milk is kind of a thing in real life, just not really viable.

Agree on wyverns though. Makes sense as a gameplay hurdle, but unless its not really 'milk' you're getting, its just plain weird. Think "milking" a snake perhaps?

Hmm well technically all of the mammals.... Bears, Megalocerous, Basilosaurus, Monkeys, Gigantopithicus, Mammoths, Wolves, Rhinos, i am sure i am missing a few, but you get the gist of it.

Maybe make a mod request for it ? Of course WTF will you use the milk for ? Maybe you can use it as a faster breeding food ? Give you better imprinting or faster imprinting ?

[Realight]

Milk the dinosaurs?! L-lewd!

I mean producing enough milk that it'd actually be worth the time and effort. Dairy cows are bred to produce far more than their calves need so that there's some leftover for us.

Other animal species could be raised for milk, but it basically comes down to their reproduction, cost of raising, and temperament. Bovines are the most well suited and common, though camels, reindeer, and apparently even horses are milked in some places. Pretty much any human raised ungulate species it seems.

So I guess you could milk megalocerous and equus.:P

Somewhere out there a modder is scratching their chin and wondering about the untapped market for milking mods.

There's mods that already do it. Kraken's Better Dinos is one. I don't remember the extent of which dinos do it, but I know certain dinos of his produce milk when mate boosted.
