Creative mode?
I would like to see that. Will that ever be added? (Something like minecraft's creative mode or something...)

Maybe if you expanded on what that means. You'll get an answer.

I would certainly love a creative mode, especially when they rework the building system in the future.

he is talking about a creative mode similar to minecraft.

as for using admin cheats--sure--but it gets tedious when you have to continually spawn something because you can only spawn a little bit becasue of weight.

i love getting creative and building stuff in single player, so a mode where you could have infinite of what is in your quickbar would be great.

+1 I like this idea as well another issue is when you destroy stuff it all goes into inventory LOL and then the weight is BAM can't move. it would be good if when in creative and destrying something it just destroys and gives you nothing

"admincheat infinitestats" and then "admincheat GiveItemNum <item_id> <quantity> <quality> <blueprint>" and give yourself some absurd number of the item. You have infinite weight capacity so it won't slow you down at all.

And here's the list of item IDs to give yourself:
http://ark.gamepedia.com/Entity_IDs

So "admincheatGiveItemNum 179 2000 1 false" would give you 2000 metal walls. It's not perfect creative mode, but that and the ghost/fly commands and it gets close.

Can't spawn 2000 walls. There's a limit of 100 for most things and some only allow 50.

infinite stats has NEVER given me infinite wieght. it only give you infinite hunger, water, stamina, you are still imited by wieght.

Plus when this game goes to console im not sure commands will be a thing for them. I suggested this idea before and i think its a great idea

Exactly! More games are eliminating creative mode and replace it with commands in a terminal. Minecraft has both commands and a creative mode. Creative mode makes building and experimenting very convenient. While commands are available for us in this game, it is pretty time-consuming to have to look up item ids and to use a command just to get the item I need to build something. Also, some items only give out the blueprint, and I can't make metal structures unless I have a smithy. If there was a creative mode, I could just grab the items I need from a menu, not worry about weight or crafting, and start building. Infinite stats, god mode, flying, etc. would be on by default in creative mode (like Minecraft, double space to fly and double space again to walk). The game would also allow me to switch between modes (using commands) and allow me to do some survival after I give myself a headstart. I don't want to grind. I just want to play the game and enjoy the special parts. Yes, this could be cheating, but I just play games to give myself a break from work and to enjoy using my creativity. Survival is fun in this game, but I would like to speed it up somewhat (I already have been using the sliders in the host/local game menu, so there is no need to mention this).

Additionally, I would like to be able to make multiple worlds for different uses like I do in Minecraft. I like having some worlds of different modes. I hope we get this feature along with Creative Mode.

You folks do realize that there is an Ark Dev kit on the workshop right? Ever wonder where these mods come from? the new maps? Ark Dev kit. The Valhalla map is an excellent example of what can be done with it.

I know that. However, I want these features in the Vanilla game.

You do realize that in vanilla you have access to modify everything including how big of a modifier you get from stats.

In game.ini you put something like:
[/script/shootergame.shootergamemode] PerLevelStatsMultiplier_Player[7]=10
which will give you something like +100 weight per click, just set it to 100 which would give you i have no clue but at 10 i clicked it "a couple of times" and i was at like 3k weight. i don't recall exactly what it was.
