Updated Cave Functionality

January 30, 2010 at 1:06 PM

The Cave functionality has been changed greatly.

You can now see the species of the creature before you decide to steal it from the Egg Cave. This will help cut down on the number of unwanted eggs in Ark (since the Egg Cave staff does not support the abandonment of creatures).

Instead of being able to adopt only 10 eggs per day, you may now only make 10 attempted steals per day (regardless of whether or not you adopt the creature).

We hope you enjoy this new and amazing feature! Fun and cool new species are up next!

Saphire usto be called donia what do you guys think of her new name and she has a story too

inkdweller • 1 Feb 2010, 6:15 PM

It sure didn't take long for this blog to fill up! ^o^ Is the "same egg" glitch fixed?

inkdweller • 1 Feb 2010, 6:17 PM

NOPE! The GLITCH is STILL there ☚ī¸

lizardfeather • 1 Feb 2010, 6:42 PM

Maybe it's you timing? Yesterday I got 3 honks though. If you time it on certain times you get certain eggs, like Terrons. >.<

gizmo • 1 Feb 2010, 6:55 PM

I downloaded FireFox and lovin 'it! Feeding is so easy now! 😊 Did say Ian something about the new species?? When it will come?

gizmo • 1 Feb 2010, 6:56 PM

Fingers crossed for some Terrons tomorrow!! (well, 1 would be nice too 😸 )

gamekatt101 • 1 Feb 2010, 6:56 PM

*looks around* Does anyone have a female Foo UFA? Thought I was getting one from someone else, but apparently they gave her to another user.

gizmo • 1 Feb 2010, 6:58 PM

OK, enough view-stealing for now 😉, I'm going to bed! It's after midnight, so time to go! CU 2morrow!

missy147 • 1 Feb 2010, 7:04 PM

@gamekatt101: see your profile for female foo info 😉

icymuffin • 1 Feb 2010, 7:04 PM

It isn't a glitch. You just need to open a new tab. I have IE and it works for me if I do that...

ginna3525 • 1 Feb 2010, 7:17 PM

good night

dragonkeeper • 1 Feb 2010, 7:39 PM

thats what I had too do to make the cave work too I just downloaded firefox

3heartbreaker3 • 1 Feb 2010, 7:44 PM

oh ya the cave thing, ya dragonkeeper right, internet explorer doesnt work with the new feature, i had to use firefox

3heartbreaker3 • 1 Feb 2010, 8:25 PM

actually for me firefox is much slower than internet explorer

icymuffin • 1 Feb 2010, 8:45 PM

To me I find that IE works pretty decent. My cousin has Firefox and it works pretty much the same. Whats wrong with IE?

dragonkeeper • 1 Feb 2010, 9:04 PM

no one knows why the cave wont work with IE

dragonkeeper • 1 Feb 2010, 9:06 PM

but there insnt any thing rong with it IE only use firefox for the cave and the rest with Ie

inkdweller • 1 Feb 2010, 9:06 PM

@icymuffin, perhaps it isn't a glitch but it is terrible with my computer. It wasn't that way before and my slow dinosaur computer freezes-

3heartbreaker3 • 1 Feb 2010, 9:06 PM

ya i havent been able to get it to work on ie cuz when u go to the cave thing and try to get a pet and then refresh it still shows the same

eggtrainer • 1 Feb 2010, 9:06 PM

I just used the cave today. The first time I stole an egg and it worked, but the second time it said something like "enable javascript" o_o

inkdweller • 1 Feb 2010, 9:07 PM

after so many tabs. It's very difficult and takes about 15 minutes just to look a few creatures. As if I'm not crunched for time as it is.

eggtrainer • 1 Feb 2010, 9:07 PM

Then I tried a few minutes later and it worked. Right after that it showed the same message again. Oh, Amorphous needs 6 more feeds 😊

3heartbreaker3 • 1 Feb 2010, 9:07 PM

egg every time but when u use it on firefox or anything else it works and when u refresh it its a different egg instead of the same one

inkdweller • 1 Feb 2010, 9:10 PM

I don't want to sound whiney but I hardly have time to look at a clock. The economy, moving, school, sports, ect, are wearing me down!!! DX

inkdweller • 1 Feb 2010, 9:12 PM

Perhaps when I get a new computer I'll get firefox or somthing else just to help out, but this part of the change I am not excited for...

inkdweller • 1 Feb 2010, 9:13 PM

Ah well it is how it is >3/

icymuffin • 1 Feb 2010, 9:19 PM

Did you guys try opening a new tab? It worked for me....

dragonkeeper • 1 Feb 2010, 9:38 PM

yes I know I tryed it it was aways the same egg every time but by downloading firefox it works

musiclover316 • 1 Feb 2010, 9:54 PM

sapphire12 • 1 Feb 2010, 10:45 PM

I NEED VIEWS as well!! And IE still doesnt work DX

blooit • 1 Feb 2010, 10:53 PM

I don't get this new thing. I can LOOK at the eggs over ten times but not only adopt before I've looked at over ten. Or... I dont get it!

asa • 1 Feb 2010, 11:08 PM

da view theif is here! 😋

dragonkeeper • 1 Feb 2010, 11:10 PM

if you dont addopt by the tenth egg you can still view them but not adopt them

potato • 1 Feb 2010, 11:35 PM

yeah we need an actual forum

inkdweller • 1 Feb 2010, 11:37 PM

Yes but what about Mo, the mystery is what keeps them rare. I'm sure we'll find a balance with this new system soon. 😊

inkdweller • 1 Feb 2010, 11:38 PM

@ Potato, you can use the forums at one of the Egg Cave fansites: www.splashnews.webs.com

potato • 1 Feb 2010, 11:39 PM

wen • 1 Feb 2010, 11:40 PM

Everyone you feel a strong need to click on my name and view my eggs *_* yeah Grave needs like 20 more views to hatch and MIschief a million

wen • 1 Feb 2010, 11:41 PM

@inkdweller, my theory is seriously ian has a program where for every certain number of eggs stolen a mo comes too, I don't know if the new

potato • 1 Feb 2010, 11:44 PM

Fed & viewed Grave and mischief!

inkdweller • 1 Feb 2010, 11:48 PM

@potato, haha lucky duck. I got a Terron for my 100th egg, so I guess I got lucky too. But then Terron suddenly popped up all over! XD
