I would skip 7DtD on Xbox if you have a PC that can run it. I have it on both and PC is way better. PC just got alpha 15 with NPC trading villages along with a bunch of new stuff. The XB1/PS4 release isn't being handled by the devs and they have said it probably wont get content past alpha 14.
Edit: sorry this was supposed to go on the post above this!
Edit 2: http://7daystodie.com/news/ Alpha 15 patch notes
I'm on Android and I use Dododex https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.danlev.dododex
It's awesome. Shows you the amount of hits from weapons to knock out a dino and lets you add your own weapons for stronger drops. Also, let's you change your taming settings to match your server so you know exactly how long it will take.
For iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/dododex-taming-calculator/id1071311292?mt=8
Download DodoDex on your phone, you can search a dino, set it's level, and put in its stats and it will tell you what is below average, average, and above average. Edit: here's a download link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.danlev.dododex
since it's an alpha.... it won't work. I posted awhile back that you could make a clip in upload studio and post it to ONEDRIVE. then it's sharable

Well the issue I’m seeing is light shafts and bloom are present even though my default is “off”, if I turn them on and apply then turn them back off and apply it works fine, just weird it has to be reset every time I turn the game on
Hands down best app for calculating needed supplies for tames. Tells you favorite kibble and the recipe for making it. You can adjust the settings for whatever your modifiers are for taming by going to the setting button on the bottom of the page

If you have the capability, I hit 70 - 80 pretty fast by killing Alphas like this on Official PvP (this was just a glitch but normally I stop and shoot it when it is bloody to get the xp), https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=FC5AC264AAC326CB!1477&authkey=!AHOmqiGrQVAMJZg&ithint=video%2cmp4 , also using Gigas for meat runs is good, hatching baby gigas and killing them is good XP as well.
This is how I kill Alphas :P except I'll stop and shoot once bloody. This video was just a lol glitch that happened though
That's great news man. Think I am going to add a rocket turret and a catapult turret to this quetzal later today :P
Still upset they removed vaults from rafts, but here was mine. Since then, I have extended the room farther to where the vaults were at for more inside space, also put pillars going down with a ceiling and turrets underneath the raft, in the water, to shoot swimmer :P
Yeah, they removed Vaults from being able to be placed on platform saddles in the last update which screwed my design up and I haven't really been using my raft much since then. Makes me sad, I loved my raft. Apparently it was to stop PvE scrubs from dropping vaults off Quetz platforms, but that shouldn't have anything to do with rafts IMO. https://onedrive.live.com/?authkey=!ACNkNb6YgL8QoEo&cid=FC5AC264AAC326CB&id=FC5AC264AAC326CB!1471&parId=FC5AC264AAC326CB!176&o=OneUp
Basically just removed the vaults and extended the room for extra space inside where the rafts were. Also, I have pillars under the raft with a ceiling panel and turrets to shoot anything under the raft ;) I really hope they fix vaults being able to be on rafts.
It works.... just use upload studio....upload them to onedrive and share your clips. It will say the clip failed. but it's on onedrive.
I would like to personally thank everyone for taking there time to read this post. My tripe and I are looking in investing into a new xbox to host a dedicated server for serious players to enjoy. we want to have a Roleplay setup in the server so that everyone can enjoy there time without having to worry about little kids that will grief your base out of rage. Also to keep things limited and to prevent chaos we are going to keep the server private and locked. To be able to join you will have to apply on our website and after accepted, you will then through xbox receive an invite. before we do this we would like to get a possible player count before investing into an xbox. We do have the internet (300mbps) we just need to know if it will be worth the money to put into a new xbox.

If anyone has any extra idea please feel free to contact me on xbox: " Deadlyfudge I ", or leave your comment below! Thank You!

IT will show you what apps are running and what ports they are listening on. Make sure its listening on your correct port.
Rcon password is the admin password, listening i used 7777 and rcon prot is what i set it to. It should be able to connect to its local host i think, I've never tried connecting to the loopback.
Does he ever get an error?
We had an issue with a member of our community that had ISP level issues explicitly between our subnet, and his subnet. It turns out, someone within his IP Range/Area was caught doing some bad things, and my ISP had blacklisted his whole subnet. It took MONTHS to get it worked out, and required me to provide lots of technical information (netstat's, traceroutes, tcp sniffing, etc) and had to hand-hold my member (ie, tell him EXACTLY what to do to get me in the info) to get the same info from him.
First thing to do would be to test if its Ark, or not. Try putting up a simple static web server (and of course forward ports) and see if you can connect from your phone using your data plan. If ok, then have him try, if still no-go, also have him try on his phone (off the wifi obviously). This will give you some insight as to whether it's a setting on your side, a setting on his side, or an issue between your ISPs.
For a quick/simple static web server, you could check out http://fenixwebserver.com
Also, use a non-standard port, as ISPs often block port 80/443 unless you have a business plan.
This is the monitor I got: LG 27GL83A-B 27 Inch Ultragear QHD IPS 1ms NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible Gaming Monitor, Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07YGZL8XF/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glc_fabc_vWq6FbWJJ5YEW
I run my own server (it sits in my living room lol) so my ping is usually 8-10ms, I’ve gotten 105FPS before on this setup but yeah for official not super advantageous. I have an HDR TV but I kinda prefer the monitor because usually I’m jumping between Ark, Fortnite, and Apex Legends. And just recently I got FFXV but haven’t rly gotten into it yet (although it looks amazing with the Series X)
Hey man. I used to have that problem too back in December. Wasn't able to play for 3 weeks on my main server. But i could connect to the servers via a VPN. I used TunnelBear as my vpn program and activated it when starting the game, looking for the server & connect. If that works for you, make sure to turn off TunnelBear after 1-2minute ingame since you only have 500mb for the month (as a free user). You should get a little lag spike but you should be fine after 30sec-1min
Hope this works for you :)
No problem, I just copied the first link. I would suggest a different pack with size and decal variety, like this one:

Does anyone know if the chatpad accessory that plugs into the controller works? Been thinking about grabbing one just for this.
And if so, does anybody know if it works with the official stereo headset (this one)?
