All events are these days!. NEVER released on time and servers are down extended periods of time not to mention the constant "upgrades" during events too. I don't even feel exited about them anymore ;).
I have a problem: my tusos only eat what I put in their inventory; they don't eat from the maewana or the feeder, and they're already getting younger.
No my bad I just smoked lol I was asking will the easter event veilwen be available to tame on astraeos?
People say that every year
Easter autocorrected to water lol
when does arkpocalypse wipe?
Lol idk im new to ascended but great minds think alike
I feel yeah there i just got ascended hoping ark would of improved but ark is typical ark
Friday
I've learned the Climbing Pick engram on Aberration, but it's not showing up in the Smithy's crafting list. I've already tried picking up and replacing the Smithy, but it didn't fix the issue. Does anyone know how to fix this bug?
On PlayStation every 10-15m your game will crash regardless of the map most of the time. Been happening since the big astra update, Ark is the only game where your have to get on your hands a knees and beg for it to run as intended and it never does
Not every 10 minutes I'm on Val and I may only crash maybe once a day Astre yeah I'm not going back it's been crashing me like crazy but I rarely crash in the server I'm in and I play official pve so there is a lot of builds
Can they fix these dang bots in official already come on they don't shut up about there scam server
Na it’s basically unplayable for me it’s genuinely like every 10-15m I have to make a save before I do anything like every 5m. It might be better on a sever but for single it’s horrible, I’ve ran no mods, reinstalled and changed maps nothing helps.
More or less same time every time login might tell.
wat
Did you check to see if the maeguina is on nursing mode and with in range.
There is a radar if you hold E on it to check it. (PC) not sure what console button is.
But if you look at the maeguina it should say nursing and if not hold E on it and click the bottle to turn it on.
I’m assuming the update hasn’t dropped yet?
The xp is active but event asn't started yet
Yes
genuinely disappointed
It's Ark, I don't expect it to be on time
Nothing has ever been on time since ASE aberration 😂
Hi all, is wildcard getting rid of in game chat ? Play on Xbox and mostly stream but chat hasn't worked properly on asa for ages, since valentine event it's unusable tho
is there any way to take a giga or charcha into a boss fight?
Just use theris
are they better than rexes?
Unusable in what way
not really
They are, because of veggie cakes
ups, read the question in reverse, theris are just better
@TheButcher041 - Im a new Ark Ascended youtuber. Go show my channel and video's some love! I follow all gamers back! GG
@hearty dagger can't type in chat, keyboard flicks up for a second then gone. To even get that far have to wait for someone else to talk and flick on to scroll chat then quickly try to chat while chat box still up and outlined in green. Seems to be like this for entire server, only message seen in weeks is spam for discord
Get out of here you spambot
Yeah, dollie is looking into it
How's about you just dont be rude? like just be a decent human
its one message tool
I tell ya what…. I’ll be a decent human if you don’t spam
Its literally one message...
That’s the wrong usage of the word “literally”, and no you’ve said that about 3 times now, not just once.
im glad your grammar is better than your personality...
You can use a Carcha for the Tek cave for some reason
But not a Giga 
Lord knows the reasonwhy they allow Carcha but not Mammoth or Spino
favouritism
That cave is so terrible trying to do it as intended with leading the army down 
Into the actual boss or just the cave?
Just the cave
None of the arenas allow Carcha or Giga
But the cave is really difficult if you plan to go down normally
Oh, then is kinda useless. Is hard enough to manouver the dinos your fighting the boss with to include a carcha.
Can get jumped and die immediately to Purlovias, lotsa gigas and carchas in there and pathfinding means lose tons of dinos and saddles to lava
Acro - less gooo ! Eggcellent Adventures lessss gooooo !! ❤️
DODO BUNNY UNITE !!! Lessss goooooo !!!
Carcha is easiest way by far if only Island dinos used 😌
🐰
You clear the cave first with Carcha then go back to grab your armu
I’d argue against that
Hmmm how else do you do? 
Why? Lol. Clearing out the whole cave with a carch and then just walking your army through is by far the easiest way to do it. Zero chance of dying on a decent carch.
just drink cactus broth and run through on foot. you take no aggro on anything as long as you don’t bump into stuff
Not even need to be mutated
then solo the overseer with Tek suit shotty
got my vote 💯
Anyone tryna play ark poc??
if you’re doing island only, you can also glide over everything with archaepteryx or terror bird instead of fighting everything
Also it wipes on the 9th correct??
Ohhh bet thank you
Carcha is fairly foolproof compared to parchutes or bird
You cant get purloviad on your Carch
ah
So if you gonna shotgun, you would just run through and be set to shotgun the overseer
that sounds like the more foolproof strategy
Yep, you don even need a mutated carch too 😌
Hello, I have a few questions !
-Do you know of any (free) mod for ASA that let you revive your tamed dinos?
-How do i increase the spawn rate of Alpha dinos on Ragnarok?
-And finally, how do I enable building in caves? I’ve already added the lines “PvEAllowStructuresAtSupplyDrops=true” and “AllowCaveBuildingPvE=True,” but I still can’t build in the Wyvern cave (I’m testing with that location for now) 🥲
thx in advance !
- Yes, get the oasisaur or there are mods on the workshop, cant remember the names
- Ini settings I believe
- Is your server PVE or pvp?
I was in PVP, but I just switched to PVE and that didn't solve the problem, I still can't place any structures in that cave
Did you have allowpve = true or did you check the option?
and we'd need a cross-play mod to revive our dinosaurs, my friend is on Xbox
Hmm, let me check
For ASA, it is crossplay, inherently.
I checked an option (I host with Nitrado)
Need to breed my Aureilax just need an egg, if your willing please hit me upp
Try restarting the server or running it in reboot mode
I've already done that
no no this aint an April fools joke, it really happend
When are we getting acro today and the Easter event????
Nobody knows
😭😭😭😭
I'm beyond tired of ark wiping my map waypoints, like what in the actual F. Has happened 3 times now after spending all that time marking locations............
I just mark caves
Yeah I had all the artifact caves marked, now all gone again. yayyyy
ooof thats bad
Also crazy that this game's same problems from 10 years ago are still happening today. Wildcard is wild.
how you gunna play this game for 10 years and not know where the caves are
How do I up the rates of my crafting skill in single player?
Does anyone know the command to stop Drakelings from spawning? I'd really appreciate it if someone could walk me through this!
whats the date for gen 1 has it been delayed
Hello, when will the update come today or tomorrow since it was postponed at 24 hours?
gen 1 most likely in june
do yall know when arkpoc wipe is?
Doubt it gonna be in december the earliest
NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="ShoulderDragon_Character_BP_C” ,ToClassName="") You need to add that to your game ini and then do a dino wipe.
does not matter
Ok
NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="ShoulderDragon_Character_BP_Autumn_C", ToClassName="")
NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="ShoulderDragon_Character_BP_Spring_C", ToClassName="")
NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="ShoulderDragon_Character_BP_Summer_C", ToClassName="")
NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="ShoulderDragon_Character_BP_Winter_C", ToClassName="")
is probably what will work
@tender cedar
You're great!! Thank you!!
Ty to you too!
Are they actually still any ex vvv guys playing this game ?
u can't escape the drug that easy
@night oracle yesterday they announced it would be delayed 24 hours and extended 24 hours
What the heck is going on???
I just came back to Ark after a while. I last played after ascended came out. My wife and I used to stream ASE together. I load up Valguero. First in game sunset and everything goes red. Can't see anything. The "sunset" lighting is atrocious. I try to get a drop. Can't see anything because of the lighting. I have to immediately use the admin commands to get rid of fog and clouds.
How crazy is that??
Like MULTIPLE people at WC played that, saw the lighting the way it was, and thought "Yep. That's good."
We're not talking about bugs here. These are intentional choices.
I cannot fathom the quality control. I thought they would have learned this time around!
Ark is getting more and more worse. Such a pain in the ass game.
I asked my wife if she wanted to play, and she said "I love myself too much to get back into an abusive relationship with that game"
it always was
Its only for 24 hours and extended like 2x
This is what they said;
Hey Survivors,
As s we were putting the finishing touches on the update, including Eggcellent Adventure and Acrocanthosaurus, we found a few things we’d like to button up before launch.
To make the event the best it can be, we’re pushing back the start time by 24 hours and will be extending it by an extra day to make up for the time.
We know many of you were ready to jump in, and we appreciate your patience while we get everything in place. We’ll share a confirmed launch timeframe as soon as we’re locked in.
<@&992529417844826182>
😞
50% chance it doesn’t go out today
Yea cuz they just can't manage to bring anything out at the date they announce
Lol
But yet they still haven't fixed the crashing issues
are unofficial servers down?
Yup i haven't been able to play for a month because everytime i load in it instant crashes me
72
Got an April fools joke for you,
WC will delay another 24 hours 😉
wtf wildcard, no unoffical servers can be found?
Unofficial are down
Let me think........EOS server's not working 😂
That's nothing new
That's just your normal weekly issues
~____~
Official works no unofficial or non dedicated
Untick the player servers
Anyone else using nitrado unofficial ark server and having alot of lagg recently?
yup
any1 experiencing issues with asa rn on ps5? js continues crashing
Ok
They probably moved u to a different node with lower specs it’s happened a few times to me on other games
Gotcha
ark unofficial servers are not showing up and no sign of the easter mod, wtf wild card ?? You can do better then this !!
How do you check all the different games server status? Not the ark status itself but the one that has the rocket league as well can't remember
@balmy orbit Does anyone know when the new dinosaur is coming out? Thanks
Today like around 3am
Ok gracias @urban prairie
o.o 3 am?
Anyone else experiencing save file size drops on ASA servers?
We’re seeing random save corruption across multiple servers:
- Save suddenly drops from ~150MB+ to ~10–20MB
- No crash or error
- Server keeps running
- After restart the corrupted save loads (data loss)
- Later saves increase size again but lost data doesn’t return
This happens:
- On multiple servers in our cluster
- On fresh maps as well
- Not tied to updates
- Appears to happen during the save process itself
If you’ve seen this:
- What host are you using?
- Mods or no mods?
- Did it happen on fresh maps too?
Trying to confirm if this is a broader ASA issue.
NA
Um sorry can't remember either
You know un oficial is not wc issue . Also they said 24 hours yesterday for evet and its not 24 hours
vj
it is if they need to push out patches for their partner
It actually is up to nitrado to update the servers
with everyone paying double for a game they bought so many years ago they should be on point more with the community and partners
Thats why im switching from nitrado they are ridiculous and charge so much more
agree, that exclusive partnership contract should have never been made so we could have more options.
Which host r u going to
Space hosting
i think i may have seen this for a single save on my astraeos server, perplexed me. went from 120mb to 12mb, no issues though
Never heard of that one
mods are all trivial, running on linux with proton GE 10, though
We have 30 maps currently
Almost $800 a month with nitrado
Ill get more space more ram and more stability for the players for 460 a month
yikes, why not dedicated hardware at that point
nitrado is godawful for bigger servers anyway
Yeah lol I didnt expect to grow this much in 7 months lol
How many servers u have at nitrado
30
Ah nice
at that cost, you could just get and colocate an actual server rack.. or rent from the big players, not shitty game hosts
any managed host is going to be ripoff level pricing for crap service, comparatively
Yeah going to space hosting a friend runs his cluster there and swears by it
Yea buying own hardware makes sense for thaat many
I run my own hosting company and I have a few ark players one has 11 servers and has had no issues so far there servers r updated way before nitrado lol 😂
Have they added the acro yet?
No
I seen typing in patch notes
How about now?
So for for those who were using the acro mod, if we remove it for the update do we lose the acros we had?
Thinking 🤔 it's all about to drop. Taking server down in 10
Yes
Different dino
Yes they will go poof
Yours are on a mod these are a vanilla dino now
Ok
Does anyone know when the new event is coming to community servers ? Or is it already active?!
What the hell is a Flovis
New event creature lol 😆
I know that but what does it even look like
Is it a flying ovis? Like what exactly is it lol.
Flower ovis
Oo cute nice
would acro be in all unoff servers default now too?
They're doing the update Easter event
so even unoficial servers are down?
Maybe they have patches and stuff also
Someone let me know when servers are back up
Anyone know if acro taming method is the same as the mod?
Nooooo I liked the funny reapers attacking Rockwell ;-;
Presumably. The developers said something about buttoning something up
My best guess at that might be the fake roar the acro does while taming, theres not really a downside to it, who knows though
It will likely remain the same like the other taming methods from ark additions since the rest of them all remain the exact same
Whys the server i play on up? (smalltribes Official )
Is helicoprion tameable for anyone else without the mod? been meaning to ask this for a bit, ratfish treats dont show up for me unless i have the mod installed
if it’s on v85 then it’s updated already
Is it bad its up?
I think you get those a different way or they just removed ratfish treats and have it be a normal kibble tame
mod isn’t needed anymore
What kibble do they take?
Ah didnt realise that ty
I could be wrong but I think it takes superior kibble? I forget
Can you get biotoxin for the new dino at Extinction?
Guys why servers empty in multiplayer
Thats what megalodons take so wouldnt be surprised, tyty
Easter event
I believe so
Cnidaria spawn in ext?
I think the Biotoxin comes from either the red zone or the sulfur fields (you may be able to get it from OSD’s too)
Yes they do
They don’t no but you can get it through other means
Wait they do? There’s hardly any water areas in extinction
I know you can get a few from osds but ive never seen one spawn there😭
Servers are back up
Yeah there’s a rare chance they’ll spawn in OSDs. Something about the enemy pool
We don’t actually have Cnidaria spawns, just biotoxin drops on certain things.
Wait random question but if the acros coming today does that mean savage acro is back? Or have they removed them dropping adrenal glands completely
Any fix on Valguero map being broken and crashing the game? I’m PS5 and can’t even load the map anymore
Savage acro to my knowledge isn’t gonna be a thing
Shame, it should be. Like an Alpha rex
Mostly because it would be too easy to grief bases with
Thats unfortunate it would have been a great mini boss
True tbf it was so strong in ase
Eh, I feel it would devalue the savage acro since it’s supposed to be more powerful then even titans
Thats ridiculous
People have tried to use titans on it, they got crushed since the savage acro takes fixed amounts of damage
Bad news they are super nerfted.
Again, dumb
Normal acro?
I just tried it on local
Shadowmanes, gigas and carchas all do less damage to it as well if I recall
Sounds like something I would just download an instakill mod for
Specifically to make people be more creative with how they face the savage acro since spamming it with those stuff would of just been cheap
Thats 7 Days to Die style development. “No play the game we want you to, not the way YOU want to play it”
What is
this game is monumentally pissing me off. I'm logged on but a friend bluescreened, so I'm standing over her and she can't log back in as the server is appearing as unavailable to Ark, but it not because i'm logged on it.
Rex groups on whistle groups actually does a big damage on it, it’s really effective to do the fight by sending a pair in at a time
SklaggleFlaggles. Now they spawn at lvl72
Welcome to ark my friend
Again, that’s dumb. Since the bosses are rex spam fights anyway in ASE
That’s how savage acro was and honestly, it was hella fun. Actually having to think and strategize what to do instead of just charge in and bite on repeat
do i have to update my nitrado server or it will update automatically?? Pls help
U need to update it
how
Yeah, doing that as soon as it gets enraged was a death sentence
just click restart
You misunderstand the premise of the fight. You use a Rex pair to fight it, the savage acro does big attack, you back off, when big attack done he taunts, when doing that it’s big damage window, then if the pair die just send in the next
Yes. That’s dumb
I don’t misunderstand, I just don’t agree with you
Its more engaging than most boss fights in ark no?
Sounds like you want to just spam things at a boss then lol boriiiing
No.
How not lmao
It is
So much more engaging
ark players make mmo players who cant figure out a single stack mechanic look like polymaths
imagine if we could have actual difficulty in dino game
I think it’d be cooler if we could pick versions of fights. Make it more engaging for all players
Savage acro is also meant to be like post end game thing where you had mutated creatures for a good bit. Like past alpha overseer or even alpha king titan end game
Ehhhh
can anyone help me how do i activate new event on my nitrado server
is rex still meta i haven’t played in ages and i see a new map called astraeos is it meta there?
Rexes are no longer meta at long last
no way after years?
can anyone help me how do i activate new event on my nitrado server
Rexes are still good but there’s a competitor for the top spot now, the Ossidon
never heard of a ossidan lmao
It’s a lost colony addition
add the eggcelent adventure mod to your server
Go to curseforge tap
"how dare game make me think, i cant even redgun"
They’re insanely strong
is that the new map?
🤔
U can do stegos on the broodmother, megalosaurus, theris, whatever u want
yo i haven’t played since valgero
Yup, ossidons are inanely strong at just base tame
aight bet but for astreoes do they spawn there?
I don’t think they spawn there
ah so still go for rex’s in the new map?
But if you transfer over you can grab yourself some
aight i’ll see if i can
smash
yall think i can just same good allos and breed max hp n dmg? cus its funer
Say that to all the other modded bosses that saw how nice the reception was to the savage acro, the primal desolititan and Corrupted Meraxes are the exact same way
Wait, was server rates an april fools lmao
does anyone know where the acro spawns on valguero?
Just with the primal Desolititan it’s a bit uh… there’s no taunt for additional dps to be done to it
rates have been active since yesterday
Ahhhhh sheeeet
Missed a full day of starving babies
what the heck is happening with the server browser
Hi just got home from work any word on the acrocanthosaurus??
Should be out right now on essentially all the maps
On a rented server do i have to kill all wild dinos before the easter ones pop up ir should they auto pop up i forget its been awhile csn anyone help pkease
All except aberration
Has anyone seen it is it any good looks nice
can u tame bunny dodo?
How do you activate the event on singleplayer
Some have, apparently there was a nerf? I’m unsure myself but I plan to check them out later today
Samee I love the spino I seen it had like a similar back as them
Im guessing it wont be as tanky hopefully its not too harsh of a nerf
So all maps except abberstion ?
Hi!
When we add the mod to the launch arguments of our server, do we have to change the rates for farming, breeding and so on manually or will they be changed automatically?
I mean the Eggcellent mod
For the acro to spawn? Yeah
I cant speak for other maps but for island its most common on redwoods beaches
Yes, and thank you I’ll have to definitely do some hunting later
And i wouldn't attempt to tame it without biotoxin its SUCH a pain to try knock out a high level with narcotics
Acro spawns in grasslands too? Ain’t no way I’m chasing after one in the redwoods
I miss pre redwoods grassland
212GB update, I might as well reinstall the game.
It shares spawns with rexes
I think anyway
Ive found the most in redwoods or carno island
Mod version tho
Idk if they change where they spawn
Please no…
Less than 10GB on ps😭
Much better
So is it my console or is it WC with this mod storage because I have plenty of storage space and if it’s my console how do I fix it I’m tired of deleting the game and reinstalling it every event
Whats wrong with your mod storage?
It saying not enough space for mod
It does it every event
And it won’t let me download any free mods
Ive never personally had that happen, might be a bug?
Welp lucky you
If you have space on your ps it shouldnt be a storage issue
Report it in #bug-reports
Does it every event I have 1T ssd and no other games download
I have no mods downloaded
Been reported since they started this mod stuff for the events
is there anything for ase here?
u can ask for help if that's what u looking for
this discord is still for ASE and ASA
Did Festival Dino Candy give only colours or it is for imprint, tame etc bonus?
i forgot, how did u craft the skins and such? i thought it'd be in acooking pot?
smithy maybe?
How to tame new animal?
oh right! thank you
Someone know how to tame acro?
Is different than acro mod
seems to be same
Does anyone know if hacks can prevent someone from entering a server? It won't let me into one server in particular, but it lets me into the others.
maybe don't cheat? idk
Real
Hey do any of you know the state of the SOTF remake? Been wanting to play again
Its the same taming method. Hurt it until it roars at you. Feed it narcotics/biotoxin and repeat.
missied the Q1 date, trailer exist, about it
Yh, I was wondering what’s up with it as I haven’t seen anything abt it in announcements or patch notes
who want to play
Siren just sitting on it
are servers up?
We gotta whip siren
are booting up
They are down
tyty
Wer wird mit mir Arkpoc spielen?
who want to play i need a duo
was there no info on the server outage? When can i play?
Silly question but is there a guide or a video on what this easter event is and how to take part in it? The patch notes are a little vague for me. Its my first easter event.
k
try one form last year, still early for any guide
Ty will give that a try! Guessing people have some videos up for it
where does the new dino spawn on extinction? gene scanner says none are on my server
Kill event Dino’s take what they give you to smithy
when does arkpoc wipe?
friday
why it takes so long for my nitrado server to update?
does acro spawn on Valguero?
patch notes said every vanilla ASA map minus Aberration
okay thanks
Why does it say no room for mod but have no mods downloaded?
What this items are for?
Flower Wreath new
Bunny Egg
And how find them or where to find them?
Same issue here. Did all the suggested troubleshooting, deleted every map and freed up a ton of space. Nothing worked. And its the same issue on all my ps5s
Yeah mine let me load it no problem. Won't let me load my other mods. But my wife's has no mods and it says it doesn't have storage. The whole mod system needs to be fixed!!!
how do you tame the acorn
I'm really hoping that its something Wild Card will patch up. I have babies out that I now cannot access 😅🥲
I hear that. I dont know why the mods are not just downloaded to our system and not whatever bs space they have made for it. I have to go back in every few days and download my mods again. Its a pain in the back side.
I miss survival where these events were just downloaded with the event.
Yep
wheres the trailer
private room of snail presentaion in recent conference
doubt that was the trailer
anyone else nitrado server still updating ?
Do you guys know the best to way to get dodo bunny eggs in pve
ayo whats the acorns preffered food
Okay, I have a problem. I can't join my server because it says "you do not have the requiered DLC to join this server", but I do have it installed. I was able to access the local map and play, but I can't access the official map because I don't have the required DLC. I've already verified the files, deleted and reinstalled the map, repaired and reset the Xbox app, and it still has the same problem. What should I do?

Does anyone know why I can't install the Easter mod? It says there isn't enough space, but I don't have any other mods installed.
who wants to play need duo
"you do not own the required dlc to joined this server"
when i try connect to EXT map, and have installed ext dlc.
how i like WC updates 🙂
Make a small pen with railings and pick up a few dodos and drop them in there
What happened to dazesoffical conquest?
@pale citrus
The ARK Conquest Discord can be found here: https://discord.gg/e25Pc2PysU
I have the same issue. Astreos map loads fine in single player but if i try to go to officlal it tells me that on xbox pcgame pass.
sensitive 🤔
So it's an update problem. I thought my game was corrupted. I guess I'll have to wait until tomorrow to play 
Can we stop having events please you all fuck it up every single time
what is the mod or the setting that lets you add 1 level in to player weight and it jacks it up by like 1000
Probably. Seems it happening to xbox, steam and even ps players
it is a network or service issue, very unlikely it could be the game install
could be due to traffic levels, or the ongoing issues a few cloud services have been having
ive noticed lately I cant install mods unless I have over 1/3 of overall harddrive space available
The problem is i don't even have 1 mod installed
right but hows your overall HD space?
Every update they release damages the game. Where the hell are the real creators of Ark? It seems like it's being run by people who know absolutely nothing.
disgusting game
What you mean sorry?
I have had to clear additional hard drive space to install mods even when i had plenty of space available
Pc or ps5 hard drive?
You mean acro? Similar to any other carnivore. Raw mutton or Exceptional kibble
New here? It’s been like this for many years bro.
I got so excited when the update said a reasonable 20 minutes but then it went up to five hours 😅
returning player originally from evolved but god damn hows it got this bad Its saying I dont even own the dlc for the island 🤣
Ark is a weird game lol
So how do we tame this Acrocanthosaurus since it appears to have the hp pool of a dodo
have you tried tickling its belly?
im not joking ive found a 130 and a 140 in the wild and they all died to a few crossbow bolts before it even roar'd once lol
honestly ive seen trikes take more hits
You have to shoot it when it’s in shield mode and when it takes enough damage it will roar, when it does shove biotoxin down its throat to shut it up, rinse and repeat until knocked out
It’s best to use primitive stuff and not high grade equipment
gotcha ty
how good is your crossbow?
Even within shield mode it takes a lot of damage with high grade equipment. Primitive items are just the best option to avoid accidents
maybe its a dodo cosplaying as Acrocanthosaurus
Never played the mod, after you feed it the toxin do you need to get the hell out of there or can you continue the process immediately?
does putting a dino next to him let him heal like a trex?
If I recall the best tool for the job is a primitive assault rifle? Mostly because of burst and controlled damage
It heals every time it roars
You just gotta keep repeating the process of make it enter shield mode, shoot it, pop biotoxin when roaring and back off to repeat the process
I'm gonna try a primative bow (regular bow)
You can also use tames
What makes it enter shield mode or stopping it from tearing me to shreds as soon as I feed it toxin lol
Once it passes out you’ll be able to just treat it like a normal KO tame, shove mutton in its face until friend
I shot it and killed if
It has a recovery animation after feeding
maybe a boomarang would be safer?
Just shooting it for a bit
Oh I see
Sustained damage will trigger shield mode
Do you need to be on foot or can I do all this from the safety of my rhynio lol
Don’t use high grade gear, use primitive stuff to control the pace of the taming
Besides the actual feeding of the toxin ofc
You can but you only have a few seconds to feed narcotics
It’s safer to do it on something like a thyla
Something that tanks damage but lets you use weapons on its back
Stegos are a bit slow
Ok got it
Thylas can reposition if things are getting a bit too annoying
But Rhynio does both :o
use a trap
I mean i use weapons on a Rhynio 😅
Or a croc
Trap is cringe I'm trying to raw dog it
Rhynio could do the trick
Deinosuchus are also too slow
Sometimes it causes them to bug out and not do anuthing
I genuinely dont know if you can do it raw dog, whenever ive tried on highlevels without its painful
Same with Carcha, which is why I usually rawdog those too. The key is to not mess up lol
It is quite annoying
Carcha always works for me when trapped
But Acro is very sketchy 
Think of acro taming as less annoying Yi Lings
Back in ASE they would never eat the bodies or half the time when they did it didn't count to initiate the taming process
They don’t fly around and have an annoying whoop attack, instead they just hardly enter shield mode lol
Deino is nice since it puts you near its mouth level when it roars
and you can just bite em if you wanna save ammo
Yi Ling is easy though, you just build a 1x1 with doorframes
While yes they can but I prefer thyla for the sake of just good in general speedy mount
And arent nearly as deadly
Still annoying as heck if they end up ignoring you
True, remember we voted for that thing
Trueee Thylas arent bad
Are we going to get these damn people to stop spamming the chats every few minutes @proven grove
I didn’t
The community did, and I think it was a mistake loll
Ill prob use my Stegos since I got some nice ones
There were definitely better options
so can just shoot it in peace 🙏
I’ll probably save acro taming for when I’m on lost colony
Especially since they immediately hated the yi ling when it released. We as a community failed that vote
Oh yea Tek suits work as well ofc
On extinction trying to tame some gigas and carchas
The enrage mode has a ton of dmg and healing its mot bad
The shot in the trailer with the Acro and the other theropods was tuff
Enrage mode acro deals as much damage as an Ossidon 👀
bro i honestly think theyve released these acros bugged lol, I just killed a 145 with 5 shotgun shots, 109% quality, to the legs
Ooof
Spawns are deciding to be mean for me rn and no normal gigas are spawning (could be due to the evo but then again, evo gigas aren’t spawning either, I think it’s the Carcha over spawn in the desert plus desolitatitans taking up the spawns)
What's their HP like?
Similar to Rex
They share Rex spawns
They share it with Rexes
If they aren’t spawning, just mass kill Rexes
Aren't Ossidons around as strong as rex's? Never used one
Carnivore island on the island could be a good spot to farm them
They’re insanely strong
Ossidons are way stronger, they look op 👀
Oh I see
Technically stronger
I looked at the base stats and they looked similar to Rex's
Unless I am misremembering
With a good bred up one you can do comparable damage to a giga I’m pretty sure
They had a buff a bit after LC launched and it made them godly
1430 hp and 95 dmg!
Vs Rex is like 1200 and 62
They are sooo strong
Don't think I'll ever tame one though, that process looks tedious af
and they can jump and turn in place
Once you get a pair they’re just heavenly to use
Thats trueee, someone gave me good ones though
has anyone actually tamed on on official yet?
Meanwhile I'm breeding the perfect Cerato army
My goats (they will get instantly cooked by dragon)
I just wish the healing was better
And can run super fast, im not biggest fan of how they look... yea and their healing was nerfed by an order of magnitude from the mod which sucks
with exgusahse nades carnovores can do fine in the fight (need to pre throw and dragons hit box is shit), with a deino
It annoys me that they were nerfed but the deino got added with no second thoughts
Its pretty sketchy with Carnivores 
That thing was an actual cheat code for bosses with the bleed, and are still good
"with extinguisher nades"
Anyone else noticed the araneo lil sprite on cryos is different now
Ysa... but Deino got nerfed too 😭
Just the bleed removed from bosses
even with extinguishers due to them not getting any heals... and the hitboxes is kinda wonky
they take almost no damage without the fire, so its really nothing
Apparently there is an Ark update today? Not finding it on the Ark DC
I found a tier 3 mutable health cerato yesterday so now I'm cookin with gas
I did with Deinosuchus, needed to reload a few times to get it
Simply because a lotta times crocs that werent directly in front still got burned to death
peak
Since grenades dont hage that big of an aoe
And Dragon still hits really hard with melee so you need good saddles
no servers are showing for me, on official
Its why Pyromanes dont just get a free win vs him
Lol they got the classic "give em some spikes" treatment Wildcard likes to do but it's tuff
Soon to be deino magma lol
I remember finding out the elephants were aggressive
Or Deino Pyromanes
Scariest moment of my life
Yea thats the current strategy but i think 2 dinos be possible for alpha
Trueee they are not friendly 
Is official servers showing for yall ?
You can solo with just the Deinonychus
If you got Vampiric traits and protective
It's actually crazy they let that thing spawn on beaches
Yea... alcoholic elephant 😭 😭
Deinonychus gets full effect from tge lifesteal so that bleed heals a lot 😂
And with Protective you can face tank thru the Dimorphodons and such
Nothing is showing for me
Same here can't see anything
Ive got ryzen 7 5800x3d. 32gb ram @3600ghz rtx 4060 getting bad fps drops on smalls lowwest settings. Ini comands is this a hardware issue?
Haven’t tried other servers
Yo when is the conquest servers coming back up for ragnarok? Does anyone know?
bad fps drops where/when?
@tight kernel
The ARK Conquest Discord can be found here: https://discord.gg/e25Pc2PysU
All the time everywhere have played island. Ext and ab every map has drops every 30sec to a min
that is a bit odd. when turning camera?
Running and turning camra yeah
when does arkpoc wipe?
Win 11 all on “performance mode” ect
Are the servers back up yet?
any news from devs on patch issues?
which issues? I know of the not owning map one but you need to be a bit more precise on what your asking about.
lol, i swear it feels like im updating this game more than i actualy play it haha
the game saying "DLC not found" when trying to join a server when you have the DLC
nitrado servers are down
Ive been stuck at 2.29/3.36 gb for quite a while now
Weird thing is it says 1 sec left the whole time
Anyone have fps issues on stretches res ( windowed full screen) 1440x1080?
Can't download the mod for Easter grr
that is like the opposite of stretched. weird res wont cause performance issues, though. unless you did something scuffed like set it via commands without fixing settings
anybody else say no sessions found and server list blank im on ps5
I cant even finish the update so far
Im just letting it go, hopefully it will get done
It’s a custom res high quality but stretched. It’s set ingame and nvidia controls pannel windowed full screen no issues with ase or any other game with it
Just not sure what can be causing the drops
Really where do they post about this or let their customers when they’ll be back up?
@opaque nexus
you really dont want to use nvidia control panel to override game settings, breaks shit. use the in-game upscalers if you want to use a low res like that
so yea still having the same issue with the egg dlc not being found. I downloaded the update, it shows the mod as being installed aswell.
I'm playing on PC through the Xbox app. I get the same error, regardless of the map / server I attempt to join
I’ll try native see if it fixes Nvidia just adds the resolution to windows and with that it’s avalible to select In the drop down menu for ark
omg I'm having the same issue as well. I'm glad I'm not the only one. this sucks man
Win 11 trying to join official aberration server that I was on before mod update and getting DLC required join failed. Tried to remove mod only to have it reinstalled when opening. Again required DLC … Aberation isn’t a DLC!!!
Yea I'm trying to give a clear description of what's happening so hopefully a dev will see & acknowledge it
you can enter any number you want in ark's settings
So it's going to 2.29/3.36 gb, then it says installing the update file, then it goes baxk to 2.23/3.30 gb then it goes to 2.29/3.36 gb again.
it is, anything that it aggros to at all breaks the beserk mechanic and it wont roar
you have to kill absolutely everything and lure it around, build anything itll aggro ur gates and bug out
I had onr trapped with nothing around and never got the berserk mechanic
yep cause it aggros the gates
Wtf
So I have to shot it in the wild with nothing around but me?
yep
Is there a way to disable chat fully so I don't have to see this spam?
Can someone help? No servers showing up for me or friend
Will mess with it thanks only just got asa in the sale
Hi we need pro player ark ragnorock English or arbic
Yes settings then to UI then it should say chat filter set to no one apply and save then done
xbox/pc - error, no dlc found
steam - no maps showing
so can a wild Acro damage metal and tek structures on PVE servers?
how do i catch the folvis?
Kill them
ty
Thank you!
my nitrado serv says its on version 85.13, but my ark says v85, and i cant find my server, anyone can help ?
Omg these Flovis 🤣🫠
best part aswell, doesnt seem to be a way to unbug it at all
so if you find a good stat/trait etc, and it bugs, u have to kill it
w wildcard
Xbox windows broken .. dlc error
what does the acro glands do in asa
ya lotgs are reporting it. Just have to wait for wc to do something
i dont know
296
mine is the same thing as well 🙁
I'm gettin a "you do not own the dlc to join this server message" when i try to join my server any help?
Same here just have to wait on WC to fix the problem
Are we supposed to kill the flovis?
Bots r back posting ingame.
which map are you running?
get it on any dlc. Mostely Game pass but some such as myself get in on steam and on game pass. Have to wait
Val , The Island, Astraeos, Lost Colony lol
odd, my partner was able to join on console but i cant on pc. trying some software troubleshooting for worarounds
I've been trying and nothing has worked so far for me
Hello. I am having an issue where the Ark Client on the console crashes after a few minutes (for all players). I am using the AASM and the version is 85.13, however, when I load the Ark client it shows version 85.6... Any recommendations? I have tried to manually update the server, I have deleted the SteamCMD folder and reinstalled the folder....
is anyone else having issues with ASA installing for some reason any time it updates even small ones take ages
anyone know if my maeguana can feed a baby reaper or do i have to feed it manually
How big was the latest Update??
This has been common for most people lately. Every small minor update posted requires a roughly 10 to 20gb download and patch. The download is very fast, you are most likely downloading very fast, it's the patching that is taking the most time and that is what is suprising to all.
Either my Steam lost all it's marbles or something is wrong my end..
230 GB is getting downloaded..
Anyone know if acro fits in tech cave?
steam has decided something was corrupted and will now reinstall
Any item that can be placed in the Maeguana and consumed by an inventory slot on your dino is fair game. For example, sanguine elixirs can't be placed in dino's inventory so it will not be on the Maeguana, but all berries, food, spoiled meat, necrotic venom, if you can place it in Maeguana and feeding is on, it works. I always show trough area just so I know it's on
Oh no.. NOT Again.... well then I can go to bed.. this going to take 6-8 Hours...
client and server patches are different, wont always be the same number
you certainly cant force the client to update to a server version by deleting steamcmd 🤔
Transfers are broken asf after each transfer i have to step out the game wait 5min and than i can download back to my server
It said the client (Xbox) is a version ahead of the server, so updating the SteamCMD files would be a logical step to see if there is a newer version (85.6) for the server to match the client version.
Anybody crashing when they transfer into a different server?
ye
that is not how anything works. a lot of updates are only for a single platform, they cant and do not need to match
Every time. Still hasn’t been fixed
any 85.x can join any other 85.x
Only trust the ring if its been fixed. The Mae's trough ring was inaccurate and expanded the higher their food went up previously. Should use a trough / tek trough next to them to show an accurate ring of reach unless its for sure been fixed. Mae caps at 3000 range from what I've seen posted around. Which I believe is the same as the trough.
what is the best weapon for taming acro ? With my faby im just killing him bc he never screams
whats flovis and what does it do
pistol
Yes and plant the seed but mine vanished after I planted it
This acro might be the worst tame mechanic ngl, the fine line between death and them actually doing the right animation, is so painful
yee
Probably an unpopular question here. Devs / mods / admins - are the spammers being worked on. Because they are back in force flooding chats three posts at a time, entire walls of text. Started coming on strong again yesterday.
Yeah its getting real bad now, it used to be once an hour or so, now they're triple spamming every 10minutes
Yall think elderclaw could be used for osds or any horde mode thing
anybody know why my game is saying i dont have the required dlc. when im trying to join an island unoffical server?
not sure, its telling me the same thing, im guess another update will fix it? lmao this freaking game
for sure, its always something with this game lol
Its because the windows cert hasn't gone through, dollies just posted 20 min ago that they expect it by tomorrow morning. Yay the xbox pc players get to wait some more
Is anyone having issues taming the Acro?
yes, its so random and bugged
can u trap the acrocanthosaurus and tame it or does it have to be free roaming?
you can trap it but the animation is much easier to see if free roaming
Today I got another -15 fps in Ark with my 2500€ pc. I had over 20kh in evolved and over 7kh in asa but the game is over for me on this point unlucky. Every patch is more trash
I’ve tamed 5 already with no trap very simple and easy to tame
O.o????
especially when they stun you 5 times in a row and knock you back 200 meters
Don’t get too close no need to be right on top of it
yeah nah, ive tried to tame 10+ and only got 1 to actually do the shield animation
You outrun acro after feed make distance
ye but it never screams for me, and when he does its the fake one
3 shots with a max cap
You can shoot it while fake screaming
cap?
I mean believe me or don’t I’ve tamed 5 no fail
Not a glitch in the game just a user error
You’re doing something wrong
For that amount of money, I'm curious what hardware you bought. I run constantly at 10-30 fps because I have an old card. Games not that bad at said fps.
Once you get it in shield stance it’s rinse and repeat after you feed it will go back into shield stance
i did that, fed it like 6 times biotoxin and on the 7th he just died to the dmg
Game: Ark: Survival Ascended
Issue Type: Crash when joining official servers
Description:
The game consistently crashes when attempting to join any official server. Single-player mode works without any issues.
The crash log shows the following error:
ObjectSerializationError: /Game/Mods/Astraeos/Assets/Environment/Trees/Aberration/LumaD_settings ... FoliageType_InstancedStaticMesh
This error references a mod asset ("Astraeos"), but I have already:
- Unsubscribed from all mods in Steam
- Manually deleted any remaining mod files in the game directory
- Verified game file integrity through Steam
Despite these steps, the crash still occurs only when connecting to official servers.
Observations:
- Single-player mode: Works normally
- Official servers: Crash immediately upon joining
- Error appears related to missing or corrupted asset serialization
- Possibly caused by leftover mod references or server-side mod data mismatch
System Status:
- Game files verified
- No active mods installed
- ModsUserData folder exists but should be clean
Request:
Please help identify whether this is caused by:
- Residual mod data not fully removed locally
- Server-side asset mismatch
- Corrupted cache or configuration files
Also, please advise on how to completely clean mod-related data to prevent this crash.
Thank you.
Does anyone help me?
You didn’t fail once?
yeh I know but im on official and im using a primative shotgun and most of them, even just slowly shooting, refuses to shield
i mean it is a fail when he dies lol
You’re not doing enough consistent dps
but before that no, he always healed back upo
I meant like a feed
You didn’t fail once feeding?
no pretty sure not
what weapon are you using
I’m on official and I’m using a max cap shotty
i have a 402 one since my 755 one hits all
Haven’t killed it or anything since it heals on feed
bruh I used a 298% shotty and it died in 2 hits, a 135, shooting at its stomach
That’s you’re problem you’re not using the correct shotgun
298 takes 4 shots to make it roar
You’re doing too much damage
it worked 6 times and then he just dies bc he doesnt scream
Do you have tek binos
how if he heals full after every feed
nah
You’re doing consistently the same damage numbers every time?
ye always full shot
like 93 when he shields
What are these rates
x5
Well tbf I haven’t used bio toxic but I don’t think that changes much
Biotoxin is max effectiveness on them.
yee
Narco you are just wasting time.
Well does it also do damage?
i dont think so
It does do damage
even if it would, would probably be so small dmg tho
my problem is I can't get him to shield animation, its cringe and boring
I was seeing if you knew that or not
now i shot one once, he went into blocking stance, shot him 4 more times and he died bc he refuses to scream ...
My game keeps telling me I don’t have the required dlc for any map I try to join. I play on windows pc, gamepass version. Any tips?
Well considering that this guy says all his die and I’ve already got 5 breeders maybe I’m not wasting my time?
Do you have a lower rated shotgun
prim lol
Are the damage rates too high on 5x?
no its normal
i mean overall rates x5, dmg is x1
I swear if you haven’t failed a feed once it should be smooth sailing
So updated now can't log in to any server just boots me back to steam.
no, fresh one just spawned, shot him once, he went into stance, shot him 4 or 5 times more and he just dies
I mean I guess. Biotoxin is like mutton versus narco which is like prime. You can do it with both but ones better.
yeah same here
Well if it helps I guess what I aim for it the body when he’s walking towards me
same
i never hit head
any fixes???
Dollies posted up in status that windows cert is waiting. Lretty sure thats why. I get the same msg.
Noticed that yesterday 🤣
can I add the easter event to my crossplay server? I added the -ActiveEvent=Easter true but it didnt seem to work
You have to add it as Mod ID: 877745
Does anyone else have problems running Astreaos on an Xbox series S? My buddies keeps crashing over an over
On a server*
More specifically this command-line launch arguments (-mods=modID)
Are yall having trouble playing as well ?
Is anyone else getting blackscreen dashboarded on log into Astraeos on xbox?
that mod doesnt work on cross play though?
Are you series S?
X
Huh, nah I'm loading just fine on X
why wouldn't it? it runs on crossplay officials
or it's suppose to , unless their having problems with it . I haven't tried to play yet
Thank god i come home after a hard days work and hop on to play this amazing optimized game and just my luck these lovely devs cant seem to have a damn update ready to go.. Yall done sucking each others thumbs yet or do we have to wait another week for the game to be playable ?
when i search that mod in nitrado, it doesnt come up and google says its not cross play enabled
much love ❤️
Does anyone know why i cant update to version 85.13 which the server is on but client side i can only update to 85.12. Since update i cant log in to any serverr.
that is not why you cant log on. you cant update client to a server version
garbage new tame mechanics, will just randomly get himself into a stamp loop for no reason and just eventually die
Ty so do u know what is broken then? I was playing i logged out, updated now it boots me.
i love it when it knockbacks me 300 meters
yeah, goes into that red roar phase but doesn't heal so you're just ggwp
Its rage mode? It shouldnt do that unless you got it to literally 1 hit
No it does that if it decides to knock you 45000 miles away as you require feeding him tranqs and once he comes out of ragemode, you're finished cause you cant damage him enough to get him to roar again
the entire cycle of this tame is unrewarding and extremely punishing for no real reason. If you miss 1 narco feed then its over, kill it and move to another one
not without any info. if you can see the server on the list, the version is fine
Thanks. Well this is why updates make me nervous. Once again game is completely broken for me. Its no wonder players are leaving in droves.
Has the event started yet or they waiting for pc to get the update?
are these players in the room with us
it started, see all the people going "wtf a flovis???"
Are the acrocanthosaurus's allowed into boss fights?
Alright that means gotta find a way to add it to nitrado server.
5 shots to a 140 Arco in shield, he roars, I feed.
4 shots to him in shield, he roars, I feed,
5 shots to him in shield, no roar, 1 more shot, no roar, 2 more shots, dead
what an amazing mechanic
same here
Well its lost half its player base in the last year so i guess not
did he not heal back to max HP after the feed?
he healed fully yes but refused to roar again
yep, absolutely boring and inconsistent, even deinotherium looks like a ez tame besides that one
which verifiably never happened, but.. lol, sure. not worth my time trying to unravel probably also imaginary issues
i used a tanky dino like a rex to chomp its health and had a teammate behind me to feed narcotics once it roars. u can do it solo and just dismount to feed
was he trapped or free?
Im doing it free, while using a 90k hp rex to take his aggro
hitting it with something that does that much damage may not work well, if it works the same as the mod version
kind of a coinflip
You can check their financial report. I didn't write it.
thats weird than, i first experienced weird issues when its trapped (most likely due to its A.I)
i think they cant roar if there a.i cant run around / chase u
dollie mentioned trapping it was "patched", i assume that was not meant to work in the original
trapped stuff has weird targeting priority, always has
i used a 25k hp 1k melee allosaurus for mine, with a friend behind me to feed
for a 140ish, how many shoot/roar cycles are you finding you need to do
with narcos
i tamed a 140 male using a 25k hp and 1k melee allo, and I saw that everytime he does his little headbutt move to smack u away he ALMOST always roars after he hits you, biotoxin seemed to do 750-800 torpor per feed, while narcotics were less with around like 300-450 range
i fed definently 12+ times
because I ran outta biotoxin
was taming a lvl 140 but a random carno spawned and killed him
all because of the pillar spam so couldnt put a trap
yeah I feel like this taming cycle needs an ajustment or something, something to make it less punishment if you dont hit the dps sweet spot perfectly
it needs rapid healing or less damage needed to roar
It was punishing in ASE.
yeah but this is punishing in a helpless way, there is basically no recovery if you make 1 mistake
I can remember getting curb stompped pretty good in ASE by acros if timing wasing right, etc. To their death or mine at times.
why cant i use summon to summon an acro so i can see how its tamed?
nm figured out why the command wasnt working
How many dodos would you guys suggest having to get eggs?
Please fix the errors on Ps5. It always said not enough space in the mods storage
im glad my top 2 favorite carcharodontosaurids are in the game now my top 3 will be if mapusaurus is added
How do you get the Flovis flowers?
grab flovis, apparently
what do you mean grab
kill em?
nvm, the gf figured it out. Trying to help her remotely
What are the acro adrenal glands used for
Any one else have issues with session not found?
Anyone having issues with Ping ? My servers never had this issue now im getting ping up to 800.
i have the same question
Anyone found out ? lol
rip the servers going down, was refreshing vein spawns to tame a gorgeous dreadnoughtus 
I am begging for an alternative to tame dreadnoughtus, let me feed them 10k element for an instant tame
tribe tower fuel, currently no other function
Is there a way to get Dino candys or is it bugged out
Why there's always a windows player who suffers more on updates
Shame on you wildcard
How? Ion think it’s a console issue it’s just ark the devs are different bro, the game is hell on console it’s way better on pc if anything
god gives his toughest battles to his strongest soldiers

is the stuff with windows showing dlc required fixed?
not yet
wow
they said maybe tomorrow its fixed
just got the brac mod, anyone know where it spawns on valguero asa?
because the platform is a barely functional nightmare to work with
can someone explain to me why the acros keep dying I cannot be that slow
probably because you are killing them
Someone said redwoods
Are Servers working now?
Is there still a DLC issue on PC?
Yes…
I’m on pc playing on Xbox game pass not allowing me at all on any server.. my fiancé is playing on the ps5 currently
ok so its a thing not just me, just spent so much time trouble shooting on my end
Yeah I even bought the DLCs thinking that was an isssue lmao… pissed man
ya redownloaded everything, just got a server so was trying to play, hopfully they can get it fixed
04/02/26 04:55 [API][critical] Failed to get the offset of UPrimalItem.CanDrop().
Whats up? I woke up and all the servers were down?? What did the Wildcard team mess up this time?
Do you test it before releasing an update, or do you just whip it up quickly over coffee?
This update just broke the Anky. Not collecting metal properly.
Still can’t access any server at all… saying I don’t have DLC when I do. I even bought them to be sure
anyone crashing on the easter event screen?
Gotta get in the habit of checking the announcements, patch, and status updates channels. At the top of the discord.
doolyRole icon, Studio Wildcard — Yesterday at 7:45 PM
Windows PC/Xbox PC players:
We are waiting for the latest major version update to go through certification. This means the update will become available once certification is complete, which we expect to be tomorrow morning.
Once that clears, you’ll be good to go. We’ll let you know if anything shifts.
@windows
Wild carnivores are healing almost instantly guys. Anyone notice that? Had to bite a low level rex like 12 times.
@swift dagger thanks man! This is day one for this game so i didnt even know how to do that smh.. Fingers crossed for tomorrow!
Sorry you got a rough welcome. Its not uncommon for one of the certifications to be a little later from the others either. You can, if you've got a discord server for yourself or you and your mates, make the announcement channels I mentioned ping your discord. It's usually a little delayed but it puts it closer to you versus in this discord.
Anyone else think it's really stupid that the dlc animals are in the game that you can't even tame without a dlc
Like why put them in then
That's some ea shit
What are you talking about? Which dino?
The elderclaw and the little drake thingys
You can't find them ingame but you can only tame them with dlc
Like why even put them in the game
There is more than just them 2 aswell
Don't know why know one is talking about this I think it's really annoying
Yea the Pyro and Dreadmare. They are specialty dinos. You by the DLC you get access. You don't buy the DLC you don't get access. Just part of the game. There are plenty of things across many games that you buy and cannot own without buying. Wow - big bronto AH mounts. Cost 90 bucks. Not getting it otherwise. Some of their pets and mounts are only available to buy. Sims - certain packs cost money or you cant use / earn them. Once Human - spend money to get the premium cosmetics.
As far as putting them in the game. One because people like odd ball tames. Two because it makes money.
Not sure why we are defending this, I get it make sense for them to make money
But playing single player and seeing literal unusable dinos locked behind a paywall is pretty crap
Might aswell be paying to jump at that point
It's not like they are skins or cosmetics either
Straight up dinos walking around that I can't use cause I got to pay
There might be a mod or ini setting to turn them off. Someone else would have to confirm that. I don't play single player.
Its optional content. Lost Colony is a new map - you gotta pay for it too to use it and its part of the story. Astreaos is a new map. Same thing. Not everything they release is going to be under the umbrella of the original game purchase. Have you never played a game with expansions?
So just kill the dino and go on.
I hate that you are accepting this, what has gaming come to
Considering some game PTW mechanics, Ark is pretty light.
If I gotta pay atleast don't stick them in my game I've already paid for
So where are they going to put them?
Dude i agree, its the same with most games there are things you can and cant do with dlcs. Look at Destiny as a prime example
Like we all paid for what 10-12 maps with the "base game"
So where do they put those dinos so people can tame them?
Put them in after you pay
Where?!
Idk man I'm on single player
The game isn't built that way.
Free game btw
Its not like the blizzard store where I can go buy a mount and then it pops into my inbox / book of mounts.
Game isn't coded that way.
Its actually not but ok, the base maps that were on evolved will be free but as this is new content ofc theres gonna be purchases. Come on now are you really mad about this
I guess I can understand it in official but in single player it's pretty crap
guys i have a question, my friend is hosting a non dedicated server and we decided to install mods today, i installed all the necessary mods but i am still getting an error that says you do not have the required dlc to join this server, but i am confused because there are no other dlcs... and i tried everything like restarting my game and reinstalling the mods
I'm talking about destiny
There is no difference between SP and Official. Other than one is on your computer and you control settings as a solo player while the other is hosted on a server elsewhere.
It was the same on evolved you got Island but when other maps dropped they were only obtainable by purchases
Mods aren't DLCs. If you are a Windows PC player using Xbox you won't be able to play until sometime tomorrow. The most recent patch / content drop hasn't clered yet for you.
im still waiting for the crystal wyverns. the armga, the ther bittle bugger from lost island. where are they 🙁
Little bit different, it's not like they were forcing me to play the map or giving me disadvantages for not owning the map
Maps aren't here yet.
ohhh wait
As someone who just wants to play a game that I paid for I really don't want to see walking ads in my game
I think it's really stupid honestly
Yes, they brought it sooner. We could see the others sooner but no signs of that yet. So we wait for their maps or until something changes.
I don't see how yous don't see that
wait but the person who is hosting the world is a pc xbox player
i hope we see them sooner.
magma wasnt that gen 1? i cant remember i know blood stalk was gen 1
Because I can play around it. I legit "move on"
Maybe cuz we touch grass and dont have so much time on our hands to whine about minor inconveniences
Oh hey look a fire kitty. Would love that but oh hey it costs money. Ok moving onto other tames. Thats the thought process.
If youre not happy just shut up and move on its really not that deep
i still remember when they said they bring drakelings out as a seperate dlc after lsot col. is was there for a day and then removed from the stores lol
One word Pawns
Ok this is old now. Move on bud. Make your peace with it and play or buy the damn thing.
@swift dagger how this work if u dont mind me asking sorry for the ping
Is this what unemployment looks like?
iv been forced back to ase. recently due to my console dying. its fun but shit i miss the asa map and the asa tame finder
two biggest things that asa changed
Devs said the windows pc players using the xbox pass were waiting on approval of their certification for the game version. Its different for different groups; xbox, ps5, steam, and windows pc xbox combo. All have different certifications. Sometimes we are all together. Other times certain ones take longer.
gotcha but the person who is hosting the world is also playing on windows pc xbox, and my regular console xbox friend was able to join him
so its joining that is the issue but hosting is fine for now?
Anyone else crashing after update?
I’m curious as to why people think acros are at the top yet ossidons are technically just the best option still no matter what
They could be hosting an older version of the game maybe? I mean technically they shouldn't have the newest download yet since it hasn't cleared certification. Your xbox friend should be running the newst version like steam and playstation.
You could try uninstalling the dlc maps and reinstalling them. See if that solves your issue. The dlc bug so far I've only seen windowx xbox pc players talking about.
okay cool thanks man
@smoky vigil let me know if that works, will you please?
hey brother normally i would
the thing is im new to ark and we only play the island
I play on game pass and was wondering why it says i don't own the dlc to play on my server? It hardly loading server stuck on a certain amount. Was just wondering if anyone els is having the same problem please.
so i dont think its worth for me to download all those other maps, ill just wait for the patch i guess
If you only have the base game then it sounds like its related to the missing certification somehow.
got it, so best to just wait for the game pass to catch up then?
I would personally. I don't think there is anything you can do to force through it if you're on the xbox pass as a PC player.
This was the notice earlier today:
Windows PC/Xbox PC players:
We are waiting for the latest major version update to go through certification. This means the update will become available once certification is complete, which we expect to be tomorrow morning.
Once that clears, you’ll be good to go. We’ll let you know if anything shifts.
See what I just posted ^
cool thank u for the information bro
Announcement, status updates, patch notes - the three top channels after the rules are where you find this kind of info. If that helps.
Do we not think that Flovis seeds should be able to go in the tek crop plot?
I've got tek crop plots I could test it with - but havent found a flovis yet.
