Hi how's everyone on this fine lovely day

[zenith cairn]

Oh wow Character duplicated 2x in 2 days 😎

[dusky kettle]

I have lost my carcha, my drakeling, my darts, my kibbles.. like can we get at least a 10min rollback when they come back up? Please?

[wide lotus]

mhm mhm mhm

[dark latch]

With the system currently being down I would like to share a thought. When making a Rhynio, if you use a Tek Giga it should pop out as a Tek Rhynio

Please make this viral lets see the Tek rhynio become a thing

[vague pewter]

go to seattle and unplug it and plug it back it

[turbid pollen]

what a good game i pay way too much money for

[nocturne briar]

Vtnc

[manic arrow]

6x now

[severe crest]

Who got them mad again? They turned reactions off?

[terse sigil]

Hey all there is real life out there and also stuff to do irl, if you dislike the real life and cant be too long away from the ark you can still play the solo mode, no one will die after a few hours without playing in the official network you all can always try to beat the lost king in the offline mode or choose one of those public unofficial servers and have some fun for a while and by the end if you feel your life really depends of playing ark all day so my tip is that you need some help and psychological assistance that I'm sure you'll find good help near you, that all I have to say and don't forget to be happy 😉

[light oyster]

can we just get fresh servers

[meager root]

10x?

[sand remnant]

People should have learned slowly that with major updates like this, there are always problems coming with them, but yeah.

[zenith fox]

[upbeat cobalt]

Is wildcard hiring?

[dusk osprey]

Well I'm going bed prob wake up drowned ffffssss got a whole max tex cursed suit on gg to who ever kills me

[ebon sundial]

Now you have muti of the same character no need to make anymore

[left frigate]

🦦

[olive spear]

I payed more for skull and bones a aaaa game and yet we are here on ark still

[cursive root]

Or wildcard should learn to test updates first

[trail aurora]

@civic bison any eta on servers ?

[hardy iris]

Astra 1.. and then new Astra 2 maps XD

[turbid venture]

Same

[hardy iris]

Then everyone leaves 1

[drowsy nebula]

Ka-chow

[charred tinsel]

@civic bison do you think its gonna be like 30 min or are we talking about multiple hours before servers are up?

[dusty pecan]

I asked a few days ago to restore a character I lost at the beginning of the month when they did an update on February 2nd, but I haven't received any response.

[compact jewel]

which game is better evolved or ascended?

[half phoenix]

So what happen now with servers bruh

[robust quail]

are all servers down atm?

[plush crane]

Ark doing Ark things

[tame drum]

@civic bison hope you are still doing okay through all of this chaos 🙂

[upbeat hound]

@civic bison how about the Xbox players that was screwed over yesterday that had no chance to get a spot on the new section of the map since you all can’t open the map up to everyone at the same time

[ashen bear]

I prefer for the company I have supported via my wallet release things that are not broken then use us as their apha testers

[viral bison]

evolved

[uncut ether]

Meow

[hardy iris]

#status-updates yes they took official network down

[lilac wraith]

@civic bison i know taking the servers down was the right call but why not give a quick notice just like a 5 min warnning or something like that

[ornate trout]

meow meow

[neat sentinel]

All official servers should be down right now

[red glade]

Yes #status-updates

[cobalt imp]

[mighty pagoda]

I love woke companies .they are the best and always allow you to express your opinion

[summer eagle]

@civic bison is a baddie 🩷

[unreal agate]

I love how they release the windows update then shut down servers….. gotta love wc huh

[lone schooner]

Next community crunch: we know we are a terrible dev team and we dont care for the inconveniences to you guys our players

[silk thistle]

this the most important thing in the discord rn

[still bloom]

@zealous spoke how do I join your server

[umbral willow]

@hardy iris Tell them to bring back otter spawns to fix everything

[short copper]

Can you have different mods for different maps? So like let’s say I want to play The Center with mods but not have those mods on The Island

[civic bison]

I get you're frustrated but there's no need to tag my CM with nonsense, leave her be

[abstract abyss]

Is this will take long? Wanna sleep 😴

[hardy iris]

This is so true

[distant star]

Any update on estimated time frame? anything would be awesome please

[noble goblet]

@civic bison how long will the servers go down

[magic nacelle]

Waited 10 mins to say this... Frank Frank you here Frank? Fix it Frank pleaseeeeee lol

[modest field]

so they launched the pc patch but now i crash when loading servers lol

[echo parrot]

Yo, so whats this I heard about a troodon helmet coming to ark???

[hardy iris]

Everything broke after they nerf otter spawns it’s true

[still bloom]

@civic bison we need to know cause i dnt wanna stay awake for hours for nothing

[robust halo]

Sacrifice the otters as tribute to the ark gods for they have forsaken us

[novel ibex]

drop tlc dino after this XD

[sonic valley]

It's not the devs that cant open it to everyone on time. It's down to Microsoft that xbox are having to wait.

[safe crag]

Dire Otter when? 👀 (imagine!!!)

[ashen sequoia]

The first thing this game needs to do in its current state is to shut down services completely and fix the mountain of bugs. As for their so-called 2026-2027 plans, I kindly advise Wildcard to abandon them otherwise, this game might not even make it to 2027!

[echo oasis]

N my happy ahh is in the middle of the ocean on my tuso tryina get tributes. I’m prolly dead n my kit might be gone 🤣🤣

[civic bison]

I get it but, 5 min notice would have meant like.....1k more people losing stuff (as in big loss, not just a tame or kit) kinda thing, know what I mean?

[spark adder]

Yup, got to love an otter pic. It makes everyone feel good.

[ebon cave]

[hollow fractal]

The microsoft update has been out for hours now...

[fluid nest]

Yall, go play something else instead of pinging the developers. They are too busy to respond to yall. And the more you distract them the longer it takes. Shut the fuck up and chill

[sacred field]

Accidentally smooshing an otter when I'm running on my carcha is one of the most devastating things

[dark ridge]

The numbers Mason, what are the numbers !! Mason reznov numbers !

[tacit gorge]

How come every time I lose a full kit in this game it’s because of the game itself running like trash?

[solemn iris]

Hashtag bring back the otters 🦦

[placid marten]

Honestly just release genesis 1 and 2 so the issues are all together and happy 🙂

[hardy iris]

@civic bison we was in a cave thats crap now dead and lost all our stuff it needs to roll back 15 mins at least

[sinful umbra]

Estábamos mejor cuando estábamos peor
Si no saben que hacer mejor no hagan nada la verdad puras fallas con este inútil juego

[rough nebula]

is ark down?

[distant hull]

Crashtraeos is making the servers less reliable than they were during the DDoS attacks

[late tundra]

I'll go eat a box of donuts to make things better

[crimson wyvern]

Put dlc on sale as an apology? lol

[civic bison]

there's no way to give an ETA atm, sorry folks, engineers are actively working through it

[distant mesa]

I just wanna know if to go to bed or not 😂😂

[safe cave]

Same I agree

[violet gull]

@civic bison I’m okay with a further rollback. My servers did not match up so I lost two transfers!

[pine coyote]

I appreciate you all for trying to fix the mess I can imagine how frustrating this must be for you all too

[gray ibex]

More like 2 days

[raven grove]

Give 2x today as a sorry

[ashen spear]

you said that you had to shut it down fast that it means less loss to players could you please elaborate ? I would like to understand what could be so bad

[silent heart]

Are they qualified

[lucid burrow]

@civic bison sometimes doing the right thing is hard, keep up the good work, and find time for drink!

[polar oxide]

OCE Astraeos down still?

[craggy pelican]

3x?

[buoyant furnace]

y la actualizacion de Astraeos para los de windows xbox ? ya pasaron 2 dias dios santo

[silver holly]

@civic bison is my stuff in upload at least safe?

[ancient token]

Tbh the only thing ive always wanted from devs because I cant imagine programming and finding solutions is easy and certainly with how many issues its had.
But the one thing ive always wished for and never seen here is

ACCOUNTABILITY

just to say look sorry all we messed up, missed something its our fault. Be patient with us well fix this.
Not in the many years ive played since alpha stage center map have i see that

[pale violet]

Just putting it out there that I have a buddy that is 6'2" and alpha of island

[slim wolf]

fix it with chatgpt

[rustic fractal]

Can windows get on unofficial astraeos yet?

[south juniper]

What is going on? Server is down ETA?... And a 10min countdown timer is wild work for typing..... Put some Gas in it!! Get the Hamster Running!!

[patent matrix]

So do I go to the server I was going to or from if I transferred right before the offline surprise?

[stoic snow]

servers down

[modern trout]

What if we don't get our character back? I was on the uploading screen right when servers went down and last time something like this happened I completely lost my char

I don't want to regrind base, tames, bosses, and notes again for the 2nd time : (

[pallid spoke]

@civic bison I just transferred like 10 mins before the crash if I lose my character will yall be able to help me ? Please I’ve restarted so many times

[kindred geode]

😆

[red glade]

The whole network is down atm, no ETA on return. They are actively in a call with the engineers atm

[neon hornet]

How is the update to astraeos affecting all other maps

[tired knoll]

@sturdy flax Then shitcard have to refund all Players who want Money Back

[crimson cradle]

So no warning of an update again so we all die lose our babies or tames in the wild? Great job WC what again 👏

[lime umbra]

Exactly. I played a little earlier today but stayed on one map and didn’t do anything major. Then logged off and been actively checking this discord for updates. I knew the servers would go offline bc of msgs and so I decided no more Ark tonight. I am OG Ark veteran from ASE. I stay offline and just stay in the loop

[heavy parcel]

3x

[thin comet]

Is testing things before launching them hard for WC? Stuff like this happens every single time, one would think they would have learned years ago

[dense mesa]

Thank u for update

[hallow arch]

That makes no sense at all

[jade vale]

Percussive maintenance
Three inch vertical adjustment
One of these should work
I have a ten minute timer between posts
This is great

[hardy iris]

Servers offline time is paused

[static helm]

I bet the engineers barley get payed for this😭😭

[dense cave]

The fact that you managed to release the "mega" update headlong is clear, but what I don't understand is why you didn't stop Official servers right away? Really bad action on your part..
You just can't turn it on until you fix it😑

[hardy iris]

They couldn’t give much of a warning they needed to take down as an emergency

[loud arch]

Remember though its early access yall so that makes it okay lol

[ocean canyon]

Make the servers great again!

[wary slate]

I see it's still calm in here🤣

[past stream]

ohhhhhhh okay thanks for clarifying

From where you're kneeling it must seem like an 18-carat run of bad luck.
Truth is... the game was rigged from the start.

[mossy cypress]

Where you at GG!! Ark needs you!!

[earnest chasm]

well i hope they roll back a couple hours, havent been on all day an hoping the babies arent dead lol

[iron yoke]

[faint arch]

So all of the official servers are down atm for ASA?

[marble sedge]

ik ill prob be lost in the sea of comments but i uploaded my chara last night before all this. am i safe?

[minor flare]

If anyone needs something to do while waiting for servers to come back up, Raasclark has a pretty fun stream goin. About to do a boss fight 🙂

[rotund holly]

It's like when you go out into the wild and see like the Yuty pack attacking Mammoths 😂

[flint yoke]

If two times as compensation isn't enough, I don't know what to do anymore. Two days of nothing but problems.

[terse cobalt]

ya 3x the game would explode

[grim tartan]

4x tomorrow to alleviate these disasters after the update?

[red glade]

Yep #status-updates

[onyx dove]

Are server back

[summer widget]

As awful as this has been for everyone involved it has made work go by faster since I'm watching a constant stream of comments

[strong vigil]

Let's take it to the next lvl, why don't we leave the game entirely at this point, since this is not the first time we've become test subjects for WC team

[minor hare]

Why valguaro wont lunch and i cant join my friend server and i cant acess any terminal witout crashing did somebody else have this issue?

[merry linden]

Do we at least know whether the break will last about 1 hour or, for example, 6? @civic bison

[frank hinge]

I sacrificed 10 Jerboas to the ark gods today to prevent the servers from going down, then you turn off the server while im over lava. What more do you want from me ?

[grim swallow]

ARK 2 WEN???? 🪿 🪿

[wide thicket]

@civic bison any plans to allow console players to transfer to steam? I know alot of people would if they didnt have to reset players and imprints.

[tranquil nexus]

[exotic rapids]

Anyone else forced to re install the game?

[high vortex]

how does that make sense tho if people left before the servers were going to shutdown or do u mean yall somehow predicted that the saves were gonna get corrupted again

[glad notch]

should have done 11 :(

[random spindle]

Dude ur really asking this right now?

[tired oxide]

it’s thursday bro

“Meow meow meow 💥 official servers in meow minutes”

Next second:

“…💥 ”

[safe temple]

The correct question is are we able to play this weekend

[swift lily]

i 3d printed some

[fallen kite]

@civic bison at this point I hope you guys just roll it back to prior mega update. Too many players lost a lot and it is not fair to the community as a whole. This was a real mess for everyone on all sides. I get you guys are working on fixes but to take the servers down recently and with no warning, many players have lost even more and this is wrong. I hope you guys get things squared away and devise a remedy that’s suitable for all players.

[little forum]

Since Steam is having a huge sale, let's make amends and bring back the cake event to liven things up.

[urban pulsar]

You guys better give us 100x for killing my fucking gachas because of this update

[rare saddle]

Its so cheap go for it. YOu make new character, put in tribe and no biggie. Plus you get a bonus of Steam as backup or main

[shell knoll]

The fact that Ark STILL after all these years STOP breaking this game. Amusing to me.
Wish I could run a shit business that doesn’t work right and still keep my employees and job.

[jagged kraken]

Wildcard we ve come to a point I have to say I'm not angry about you I'm just disappointed 😞

[slow perch]

fix it otterly 🙁

[dire night]

We should be given a 5x on everything for a complete week, as a reward for all the problems and lose we got since yesterday

[dense mason]

@civic bison is it worth staying up or does it seem more like a multiple hours-days type issue

[pallid surge]

We kept having roll back after rollback I’ve built the same building in the new area 3 times already today 😭 just want to finish my lighthouse on the little island

[sturdy flax]

They don't have to. You are just being a child over a video game you chose to buy and play. You still choose to play knowing full well how this game is but guess what, it isn't WildCards fault you're complaining. Grow up, either wait patiently and be an adult, stop playing Ark, or continue being immature and complaining and insulting. The choice is yours but there is only 1 right choice here.

@civic bison - get the servers back online - give us a chance to save our characters, etc. Provide notification for when servers are going down.

[worthy carbon]

Close your eyes, imagine a perfect and stable server where you can play every day without problems, imagined it? Now go to the official website and report the bugs. Complaining here won't help; for change, besides talking, we need action, we need to move (do your part)!

[glacial nebula]

Cant decide if best worst game ever or worst best game. Dangit, why do i love thee so?

[ancient token]

I think palworld should take over development, they've already show they can created a better game than Nintendo, maybe this the next step, because these devs with over 10+ years experience make the same mistakes and clearly done server test anything

[civic bison]

I'll just word it super simply (not bc I think you're silly but because a lot of people are still asking)

• issue exists
• engineers: issue exists but why

this is where we're at, it's impossible to say at this point. once root cause is found? sure, maybe we can guess how long, but that still depends on various factors

when there's something meaningful to share, we will

[runic copper]

They are unplugging the servers and plugging them back in, but there are no lights in that room so they are having a difficult time finding the plug. Just hang in there everyone.

The whole official network is down atm to mitigate player loss. There is no ETA atm

[thorny imp]

I'm probably dead lost my weight trait

[covert sapphire]

im tired of this bs, every time you do an update, you break the game, being honest guys insulting/complainig in here wont do a thing, we need to get together and stop paying for mods, useless dinos, and buggy content, when he hit their pockets their gonna start giving us good quality content....... thats the only way they gonna learn

[lime umbra]

I will help mute ppl. Scary part is most the ppl in here are adults too….I see several ppl violating rules to be in this group….

[sonic crescent]

The servers can barely handle 1X and you think they will give us 5X? They don’t care that much.

please roll back

[plucky trail]

It’s seems at this point that maybe it would be best for wildcard employees to just roll back to yesterday’s first update.
All the tickets of lost characters would take forever to complete individually

[ashen bear]

why don't we start a betting book on how long before servers crash again after they get them up this time?

Take all servers down and roll it back before the Astraeos update. Fix the issues with the Astraeos update and then re-deploy it. Ya'll have a way of fixing this.

Some of you have to understand when you’ve put real time into ARK: Survival Ascended not casual time. Server time. Build time. Raise-your-tames-like-they’re-family time. When you invest that kind of energy (and money), frustration isn’t “being a child.” It’s reacting to broken expectations. Too many promises are time and time again made and then broken. At some point ramifications and accountability take a toll. I get it, calling someone vulgar names doesn’t help and isn’t the right way to go bout a resolution but they’ve had more than 10 years to get this right and this is too repetitive. Every single release and update. This is the only game that does more updates than actual game time. There’s no excuses honestly. It’s a hard truth but they wouldn’t have jobs if the base wasn’t so devoted to a game that has so much potential. However, potential only goes so far eventually that will run its course too.

[viscid quiver]

Ark has become unplayable, with repeated crashes, dino losses, gear issues, server problems, bugs, etc. ... but nothing is fixed. They want to release new dinos, a new unstable map, and then they want to release two new DLCs. Stopping this nonsense would be preferable for Ark's survival because you're hitting rock bottom. Ascended will end up like Evolved after the release of Ark 2. Take everything offline for 2, 3, or 4 days and fix it once and for all. Before, players had at least a 3x bonus on weekends to compensate for the losses, but now there's nothing.

Nothing wrong with holding a company accountable for their actions. I don't think the issue is so much they took the servers down but that it was done without warning and only after the fact was a notice made in Discord about it. If you are one of those people who thinks companies shouldn't be held accountable or that they shouldn't be transparent then you my non-friend are what is wrong with the world.

[tranquil grail]

This game is just turning into a garbage dump each day. Im not saying this just because of this current issue, it's just in general.

So many unbalanced issue with over powered Dinos vs turrets. At this rate turret damage needs to be increased for a challenge against these OP dinos.

Meshing is still an issue and clearly so is duping. The only reason the last dupe was fixed up so fast was because it was leaked. But since all the other dupe methods are not public there is no issue? Fishy to me. Either way im about done with the game and its scams.

Early estimation of software bug fixes is challenging because bugs are identified by symptoms, not root causes, making the effort to investigate, reproduce, and fix highly unpredictable.

last time they did a technical postmortem, chat was full of xbox timmies screeching for hours about how disrespectful and pretentious it is for them to not use toddler language to explain it. no winning with this community 😂

[frozen yoke]

Good luck trying to get money back from WildCard as they get their money and mess the game up more and more. I mean they did wipe a entire game to try to upgrade

[sturdy sleet]

will have gta6 b4 stable ark servers 😛

[cerulean rivet]

fix it plsssss

[vivid sapphire]

Is servers up i can't get in game

[random spindle]

I let a bunch of my bases decay already actually, in the last 4 months i just log on to render. Its just a game boyo

[hazy roost]

i love how they test it with one person in a 70 server.. ya idiots it runs well for one person try 20 30

[civic bison]

you must be new here

[atomic karma]

good idea man I bet they didn't think of that

[sleek arrow]

theres been soo manny down times today

[livid parrot]

GTA 6 gonna drop before servers open

[meager oxide]

So, from what I understand, there's no way to notify players in-game, and they have to keep an eye on Discord where thousands of messages pop up while they're playing? They don't notify players when there's server maintenance within the game itself? That doesn't make sense...

[meager root]

gta 6 is out

[modern trout]

Guys

Servers have very bad issue, to prevent bigger losses and even more issues they shut it down

It sucks but we gotta roll with it cause, making game is hard...working on servers and all that jazz is hard

[hardy iris]

You’re basically Canadian

[dark sequoia]

@civic bison can you confirm if they are rolling back all astreaos servers or just the ones still affected? Need to know if can sleep early or stay up to claim my little area again LOL

[hardy iris]

Fix the game please devs can't, make a try

[exotic yoke]

The servers are online !! Let’s go

[sturdy flax]

Good luck on the lawsuit attempt. It's a video game that isn't causing you any harm nor are you being forced to play. If you have a problem with it then you're free to stop playing altogether. Flaw was sharing pet pictures to help ease some tension and show love for the community. If that bothers you and you are humiliated by it then you need a reality check and need to look in the mirror. Grow up dude, quit being childish.. youre only making yourself look foolish.

@civic bison should wipe all official servers every year 🙌

[civic bison]

@civic bison hi cutie

[civic bison]

anger isn't an emotion, silly

[neon rock]

@sturdy flax actually that's not fully true all the game crashes could damage a videogame system if he can prove ark has damaged it he could sue

[solid socket]

Servers back on?

[hushed marlin]

is there any chance to find out if a rewind might come with the patch i get its down and why it got took down but there was no warning for this one for ppl ingame or atleast not for our server

[bleak sparrow]

Dollie can wildcard hire me please?

[fluid nest]

Its a Promise

[halcyon zinc]

Hey Dollie ♥️

[hollow timber]

Some people with this down time should clean ya pee bottles up go feed your kids or do your homework but wast time complaining on discord

[vestal nova]

Nothing wrong with being emotional, that's usually when the truth comes out

[gusty brook]

Does upload timer stop while servers are down @civic bison

[atomic coral]

situation is bad enough as is already 😭

[wispy dew]

Now I have to keep checking Discord in addition to playing? Because you only notified us here in the general chat on Discord... They didn't notify us in-game... Do I have to keep searching for your messages here in the chat now?

[charred tinsel]

@civic bison are they working on a fix to the problem or do they still dont know what the problem is

[stray drum]

@civic bison wanna run duos on apex in the meantime?

@civic bison Whenever someone says something bad about Canada, I just go to the doctor for free to have my feelings checked 😄 😄

[leaden remnant]

Dude check the pinned messages

[fallen kite]

@ swervis I’m curious did you not see that I made an argumentative point for both sides or are you just selectively mute? I used rational sense to make a very valid point and you literally overlooked the value to try and flex. Trying to attack my maturity while clearly showing lack of yours was a bad play there. How far did that get you?

more information would be nice about that I understand that this is not place for it and that many people wouldnt understand more technical explanation... but having some devblog with more technical info later and what was happening would be realy interesting educational and may help with reputation too if more people realise what is going on in background

[daring wadi]

Servers up?

[pastel pilot]

Are there heat waves for the Phoenix on Astraeos?

[full sentinel]

nope

[cloud obsidian]

Oh no My Kids!!!

[zinc frost]

Like how would people lose more stuff if they gave us a warning right know we doing a raid and a warning wouldve helped us stay back @civic bison

[violet inlet]

Y’all should try Helldivers in the meantime 🤣

[hardy iris]

People were losing things by the second it seems

[lime sigil]

Are you implying that it was great at one point? 🤣😅

[high vortex]

bro reacted to her own message

[shadow mortar]

@civic bison will there be a rollback on official server? Just lost my whole inventory included Tek armor 🥲

[hardy iris]

You mad bro

[glossy latch]

@civic bison Are expire servers gonna get extended at all due to this?

[digital laurel]

Right Or at least got to pod stuff ahead of time when your in the middle of raising Dino’s

[grand nebula]

All this screams that the server's being down was unintentional at first. I can't imagine such a decision be taken on the fly without any notice

[vale sand]

Hey are pc Xbox servers back up yet? Please

[trail fulcrum]

I wanna go to sleep any idea how long its gonna take until theyre Back?

[sinful raft]

Every time Ark updates it’s like downloading a new game 😂

[distant hull]

The withdrawals aren't fun anymore

[glad pulsar]

same we was doing a cave and just walked in and killed 2 things and got kicked we are gonn lose our stuff if they dont roll the servers back

[pallid panther]

[heavy parcel]

[thorn pewter]

Eternity go to sleep. Have a snickers. Be merry

[twilit field]

[blissful portal]

Same. Lost everything I had on me as well but atleast my base was back.

[lime umbra]

18+ years old yes. But I get your sentiment 😂 I agree

[rugged ermine]

can we get another status update

[ebon mural]

Bruh they done got you on this discord grind all day. They outta sub someone else in I bet you done heard 5988 a million times today.

[karmic summit]

Its an actual form of comedy that people like you think your singular problem that likely 10s of thousands are also facing is more important than everything else.

[strong vigil]

If a bunch of dodos on your base count to you then ok, good for you, but don't expect the rest of player base to feel like "it's just a game", cause we've spent thousands of hours on this

[strange coral]

No need for your ridiculousness, wanna help us go through, tell people what went wrong, clarify things to the community, don't stay silent or make us feel like some ignorants or abandon animals waiting for a thread, do a mod job like it should be, and not like you've done. We know they announced more shutdowns, but let me tell you something hoping in future exchanges or problems like these will pop up again, excuse we never tell them, we avoid them, and that is the most valuable thing we can have. Remember that and pass it on to the team, if we can call it that. Goodnight and I hope things go better in future, even more ridiculous, turning on slowmo🫶

[golden thunder]

Ça fonctionne ou pas ?

[short sigil]

Is anything gonna be done about the lost characters??

[stiff moth]

[viscid root]

Yo dollie any idea how long servers will be down I was mid raid and really wanna sleep

[marsh compass]

@civic bison please turn the network back on and give everyone 15 minutes to put things away. We had no warning and most players are not in safe locations or babies were out.

[chrome breach]

how does this work, how do ik when my char is sorted do i get an email or msg on discord or what

[vivid sapphire]

@civic bison got the claws tonight. LMFAO

[worldly pebble]

Basically anything then 🤣

[pine coyote]

2.16am and I cant go sleep till I know my character is okay in the ark wildness 🥺

[upbeat cobalt]

So what is the issue that exist?

[scarlet raven]

Are servers up or naw?

[civic bison]

lol

[vital peak]

Are we going to get compensation because this is A dev issue or are you guys going to blame Epic. Specially since you took down the servers without a warning some of us were in the process of relocating their base and have loads of valuable items on us. We have to stay up until servers restart to get back into safety.

[tepid spruce]

@civic bison do it fast pls im in mid of the map with 2 capped suits on me

[coral plaza]

Guys they don’t care this game has no future

[hardy iris]

[copper cypress]

is there one for you?

[muted plover]

do it no balls

[ashen grove]

It's 'As the ARK Crashes'

[modern trout]

What happens if they cannot find the character after they look over the ticket? If you can share any info?

[civic bison]

lol hello

[echo trench]

Poor wc they mess something up again and cant be called out on it this isnt evolved anymore this isnt an open beta its not acceptable. I dont agree with the abuse thats not ok but they 100 percent need to take accountabilty for their mistakes which happen very often.

[mighty verge]

nothing fixed yet?

[sturdy flax]

That still isn't causing him personally any harm. You missed the entire point and provided no evidence to back your claim. Crashing will not cause damage to game system. The file size being very large can cause wear and tear on system, COD causes wear and tear due to file size and causing system to heat up. Ark does not do that like COD.

[lavish fulcrum]

are we going to get any type of reward after all that happenings?

[meager rain]

Offline for 1 hour

[hardy iris]

Sometimes they will dm you or ask you to clarify the information if there wasn’t enough to find it

[wooden basin]

@civic bison just saying putting in magenta for Valentine’s Day event was best ever

[primal bay]

Alguno quiere jugar ark

[placid perch]

Thats ok, Im glad ur busy, sorry for the 10 min reply, I haven't got aura so I can't ignore the timeout, can we get an update on a wombat/koala shoulder pet per chance? more important then bring servers back up, cheers

[night lava]

my crash game say , the ue-shooter game game has crashed and will close , is that's normal?

[snow pecan]

Waiting for online ark servers is new sport. ⚽️

[civic bison]

success with this system is very high, further increased by not transferring/uploading etc while you wait

[hardy iris]

Otherwise maybe you’ve uploaded/downloaded too much or the char is really old

[muted salmon]

Did we crash again?

[radiant stream]

space of 2 days servers have been down atleast 10 times

[kind zephyr]

Wildcard is like a “coming soon” ad that has been up for so long it has started rotting and rusting.

Any eta when the broken mods work again? ^^

@civic bison I just pressed download character to spawn on a different server when it went down. Is my character prolly gone?

[hardy iris]

Coffee for Dollie

[wispy dew]

It's a joke, they take everything down and only announce it in the general Discord chat, as if everyone spends all day looking for messages here... A game of this size in the hands of a company that makes fools of its players and then responds with sarcasm. It's a good thing that other survival games are coming out this year.

[jaunty flare]

Been tasked with tribe hero for tonight, gotta go around find my sleeping tribe mates when the servers come back up.

[proper spade]

I gloon to this chat but this message will be at the bottom so no one will ever kno

aight man shes gonna turn the servers back on just for u

Whats your Problem Rainbow Clown? I know almost everyone has that problem?! I'm just wondering if there will be a rollback🤦🏻‍♂️

[fervent nest]

Windows only updated for Extinction and The Lost Colony; when will the others arrive?

[stark ore]

I like chicken

[ebon hatch]

Over 24 hours and still no character found cause of all this

[neon rock]

@civic bison so instead of increasing mod storage for the PlayStation 5 they broke the game again I see.

[zenith saffron]

Damn Ark Community is active today at its finest (not very happy)

[fallen kite]

@civic bison why not just rollback to pre mega update wouldn’t that solve all this mess? It’s just a suggestion but wouldn’t that negate the incredible amount of tickets that are probably going to keep pouring in? I do not envy the work the teams have in front of them but why does this happen every single release and major update? Maybe if the community knew why or what causes this, they would be more receptive and understanding (or maybe not) just being an adult here.

[white magnet]

is there a fix for single player in the works?

[torpid dagger]

@ me when servers come back up

[still bloom]

@civic bison any news?

[desert dragon]

Hi dollie sorry for asking but do you have any info about the time it will take?

[still bloom]

how long will it take @civic bison

[pallid panther]

I only drink a bowl or 2 a day

[hardy iris]

I’d bet they are waiting to do character restoration for the servers to be up and running again, some char may not be lost after they revert back the wiped servers

[coral plaza]

Did I say just for me they don’t care about there customers wake up bro

[ancient spire]

love this. thank you

@civic bison could just disable commenting then not worry about the concerns that they already know about while they find the issue and resolve it
