Yes, on 90% day cycles the morning starts at 2:40am instead of 5:30. I believe this means night time is at 2:40pm on 90% nights but I haven't tested it. I watched raas and his yi ling turn into a Phoenix during his stream yesterday. As a result it's not a time speed up like it was in ASE. So 50%day/night should be 5:40am-5:40pm. 90%day/10%night would be 2:40am to midnight 10%day/90%night should be 2:40pm-noon
No fake screaming/pesonality.. no wasting time.. talking very clearly and slowly so we understand.. the videos are always rich with important and amazing info.. learning new things every video guaranteed.. you have the best Ark channel on YT and no one comes close
Others have already said it and i agree , good solid video , no overreacting, no talking just for the sake of talking to make the video longer, just a person being themself , giving information that i was looking for. Thank you for the video and keep up the good work, from some pretty old ark enjoyer.
Love your videos! I'm a long time veteran of Ark and watching your videos is so refreshing :D Especially since they are so straight forward and get all the info out clearly. An oldie like myself forgets things too so it's good for brushing up on the game. Please keep up the good work!
Glad to know I’m not the only one in these comments who hasn’t found any loot crates on the surface. IDK if it’s just that their beacon isn’t lit up, they’ve spawned in the ground, or that they’re not spawning in at all. And I dont know if it’s a single player problem, a PS5 problem, or a rare general problem.
Great videos your guides have been great for aberration. Anyone else think the Surface Reaper King spawn rates seem wayyy higher? I go in there and it's instantly 20 of them on me.
Hey Crabby! Nice content you got, i really enjoy watching. Can you make a video guide on the entrances to the rad zone as well (red area) (currently dying in the rad zone as writing this comment). I never played ab before and it is getting on my nerves lol and am having trouble with it. I entered to find a rock drake egg using a spino and got lost. I bet many others would be confused about it too. Thanks!
gonna hop on and try testing some spots in rad zone for building, ase remember having a small outpost near drake nest for hatching forgot where it is or if its still possible
@@OfficialKap each to their own, I guess it would’ve been cooler to watch me approach the entrances on a rock Drake, but that also takes a lot more time and would add many more minutes to the videos and I try and keep them concise
Pyromanes are immune and also give their rider all immunity to heat and fire does mean people riding pyromanes can stay up on the surface during the day (as long as their keeping an eye on their radiation sickness?)
@@Crabbytron trying to get back to the green zone area where my base is at, I have a base prior to blue zone entrance off river that drops into blue zone( waterfall), I will look for the pink mushroom tree, thank you.
@@precious1557 oh yeah that’s not the spot the pink trees are not near your base you need to climb up the waterfall or go up a path out of the west side if blue zone
I'm having issues with the first batch of drops not having beacons. I have to wait for them to despawn or find it by luck so they can then start showing beacons does anyone know how to fix this?
@@Crabbytron well when I was on ase abberation I actually bred 5 or 6 rockdrakes I just wanted to kill alpha reaper but I was losing my sanity and losing my mind as I kept searching over and over and over again eventually I had enough of it and decided to beat Rockwell on beta as I didn't want to stay in the map for too long and just spawn it in so I can kill the reaper
@@rasashahamipour7523 its hard to find I would take a few days searching each zone killing a lot of reapers to get one to spawn alpha basilisk one was hardest for me
Well I mean sure alpha basilisk is a pain to find but for some lucky reason I found a basilisk borrowed in the ground I got out of my spino this eguys are so scary when they get out after the roar as it's like almost a second but hey it was alpha so I killed it
Just a warning I’ve had a few players I play with get burned alive at 2 am so please proceed with caution ⛔️

@@jamestaylor9887 I think it could be bugged as I had a friend burn at 2am when the nights were 50/50

Thank you for not screaming like a 6 year old and just delivering concise information in a clear and professional voice.
@@The_Privateer very welcome I feel overwhelmed by some videos so i just want calm
Information
I am low key terrified of heading to the surface the first time. 😂Thanks for the tips Crabby!

We shall die as one !

Great tips crabby thanks, I do not fear death! Death shall fear me!
@@BigBoyNowYT good luck with that reaper overspawn
Another great video. You make it seem so easy to not get lost lol
I used to live permanently on this map back in ASE in my cluster i know it like the back of my hand. The rad zone still gets be a little turned around

@@bigsnack-nd9jx yeah I talk about it in the intro it’s terrifying I hope it’s something that gets fixed
Thanks for these straight forward guides, very appreciated. 😊
Very welcome
That poor bulbdog at the end! I think he needs water.
He was sitting there so happy I’m a monster
Great video.
Which would be the best surface area for loot drops?
@@benmorrissey7610 probably the blue zone or north east entrance of green zone
Great Ab guide! I’m sure I’ll still manage to get lost tho lol
Map markers for exits I recommend
Subbed for a really nice info without faking anythin and adding anythin useless to make the vid longer
Will def recommened to friends
@@demonicpapi8789 thanks so much I try to keep videos short and simple
Thank you
@@wellconnor3130 very welcome
Still a massive overspawn. I just killed 3 and walked a few steps further, and 5 more swarmed on me ...
@@lyxiagaming yeah be careful up there I don’t think it’s been fixed yet. I had a wild one jump on a friend zephyr

@@s0lidsnak349 oh yeah the path down is long and I recommend a spare suit too definitely something I can work on currently dealing with some pc issues
Hey i love your videos helped out a lot
But i watched so many vids about surface time but i dont get it
Is the time buggy ?
@@fleshman44 I think so are you playing single player some of my community have been testing if you wanna join my discord we found a bit more info
gonna hop on and try testing some spots in rad zone for building, ase remember having a small outpost near drake nest for hatching forgot where it is or if its still possible
@@slipinsidewayz you’re brave living there
Thank you for this I will no longer play aberration I guess lol back to the Island for me
@@LoveAntifa why? I love ab
@@Crabbytron Because I prefer to be outside
Which surface entrance do you think has the best amount of crate drops? Great vid!
I'd say both red and blue have good amounts. Almost always have a new crate spawn once you grab one.
Thanks 😊
I saw some at blue & the third green it’s the bigger area but I think it’s somewhat random my single player had a big overspawn so be careful up there
The surface is wild now. There can be up to 30 reapers at once even on the small surface 😂
@@joshpalmer7118 I was pooping my pants while filming b roll in gcm even
Great video, but it would be more helpful to see people actually going there with tames

That I haven't tested.
I can tell you the Pyro are not resistant to surface heat. Tested and lost a few lol
@@deannapierce215 ok good to know Dianna thanks for sharing
Does the 90% mean the night lasts longer? Like time slows down at night?
@@Ell9862 yes although I’ve had the sun not come up until later as well. Which I can’t tell is a bug or feature
I’m currently stuck in the blue area, I have worked my way to the right of the waterfall trying to follow a path out but 🤷🏽♀️
@@precious1557 are you trying to get to the surface? It’s in the northern part of the blue zone look for the pink mushroom trees

Went to the surface at 23:00 and still got burnt by the sun lol
@@Alpha_Rule_ oh god ! What was the day night percentage?
For some reason my surface loot drops arent spawning (singleplayer modded)
@@hydrofrog6496 I went up in single player and saw them more so on the blue north east entrance
not sure why but on the servers I've been playing on, the surface drops aren't spawning at all.
@@Orca95 i haven’t seen that but one of my friends was saying they are disappearing into the map in her server
@@Crabbytron I'm not sure either, it could also be the ungodly low settings I play on

Well surface had and still has the overspawn of reapers there is no point in waiting
