ARK: Survival Evolved
The game ARK: Survival Evolved has a new water creature winner. It's called Shastasaurus, and got over 39k votes! Later, it'll be a new part of The Center. The game's creators say they'll show its design and details soon. Plus, there's going to be another creature vote. Players can keep being creative.
The creators also have other news. They've shared that they will give save games from the Official Network to players. This way, players can run their own servers and keep going with their Official Network progress. It all starts on August 30th, when the first save snapshot is shared. They've also started Classic PvP Season 7. Here, players can get three times the normal experience, taming, and gathering rates of standard Official Servers.
In addition, all Survivors on every platform will get an EVO Event. This will go on till August 28th. During this time, all Official Servers on each platform will go through an evolution. It includes 2x XP, harvesting, taming, and breeding, and 2x hexagon, but 0.5x Mating Interval.
Rust
Rust fans are getting ready for a big event, Charitable Rust, happening on October 14. Rustafied, the event's host, has a skin contest going on. Only until August 29 can people send entries, though. Details about the contest are up on Rustafied's website. Part of the event will be Twitch drops and store stuff. All money earned will go to charity.
There's more exciting news! A Twitch Drops event is coming up from September 7 through 14. Players will get more information soon. They should check the game's social media updates. To make sure they get their drops, players should connect at twitch.facepunch.com.
There's even more going on.
The Rust Insights project is asking for thoughts from r/playrust Reddit users. Everyone's responses are put together to form clear statistics. Since it’ll continue, players can respond to more surveys in future. One Rust fan has even built real life weapon racks like those from the game. Plus, the Weed Farmers have a new video out that shows off the Bandit Camp.
