Helena was smart enough to dismount her parasaur when she fell down, on the other hand the raptor forgot to, and that's why it got one shot.

[Xadov]

I really hope there's a scene where Bob accidentally whistles "all follow" and all his tames mob crush him to death

[BowTieBit]

For anyone unsure: the story of Helena Walker happens millions of years prior to our survivor story in Ark. That's why the animated show won't have all the bugs we experienced; the System is still functioning well enough at the time. By the time we get on the Island, the System is falling apart.

Helena in the trailer: badass survivor versus someone in full flak and steel pike and on a raptor

Helena in survivor notes: "my aim is piss poor and I have fists like marshmallow"

[soaked_soap]

I want there to be a scene of someone angered at how much cementing paste they need

[JackCanada]

Parasaur in series: *tail whip*

[wishcash]

If only Parasaurs were this awesome and could take on anything other than dodos.

[benjaminmccormack]

One whole damn year after this trailer, and it still gives me chills.. every time I watch it.

[DanCap]

If one of the characters in this series doesn’t have extremely long and muscular arms, a tiny head, short thin legs and big ass feet. IM NOT WATCHING.

[angelavila]

This looks so badass


But my Parasaur wouldn’t protect my ass like that

[cassie.]

watching the show now it’s obvious how much time and dedication was put into it im glad they didnt rush it even if it took 3 years

[TAiiNE]

I hope this will properly expand and tell us the story of all the arks going all the way through all the maps. Let all our theries and speculations finally be answerd.

[berrybeebenson]

I imagine my 2 foot character with massive forearms and sticks for shoulders with massive hands dragging on the ground talking with this voice

[batalorian]

I can see how the show is going to start:

A guy wakes up on the beach, dazed and confused. Before he has a chance to do anything, another survivor wearing full metal armor comes and kills him without hesitation

[darth_vrionis]

This show is so elite they got stoic the vast as a voice actor

[x.adele_shadow.x]

Series was amazing y’all, loved the part where the main character loaded into a fibercraft server and was instantly killed with turrets built by Tribe of Bob
