[cerulean bone]

Are you raising them on ceilings?

[charred lava]

Does anyone know why my skill tree points reset i still have my points but i would just like to know what cause its and if i did something

[weary apex]

Have the bees in Lost Colony been fixed? There's these GIANT 3.3x salmons bathing right outside my home and I wanna go fish ;___;

[toxic veldt]

No it jumped into my fight and when it landed it just disappeared in to the ground. With all our stuff on it.!.. this was in a mission area inside the city. It shows 300+ meters under.

[cerulean bone]

Ah yeah the meshing is happening a lot on LC. Happened to me too by just using the city teleporter.

[tropic helm]

Ik this isn't asa but I installed ase and all my drivers are updated and I verified files but the game keeps crashing after loading to the main menu but doesn't give me any logs? Any one able to help

[dull oyster]

Is there a way to get terminals to render in on extinction. I don’t have tp unlocked so I cannot use ones that people have left open. I’ve been stuck on 5842 for 24 hours. I uploaded a flyer to get me around once I got here but can’t access because all terminals invisible for me, any suggestions?

[warm bluff]

what do ya mean by invisible?

[dull oyster]

Yes

[warm bluff]

sorry, I meant what do ya mean

[dull oyster]

They are invisible for me

[warm bluff]

can ya not interact with them?

[dull oyster]

Can’t even see them I went into single player and marked each location however on official they are invisible

When I approach it’s like an invisible barrier

[warm bluff]

Official?

[dull oyster]

Yes on official

[warm bluff]

then find someone going to fight the King Titan

or wait a bit, the servers might be acting up or need to get updated

[dull oyster]

Thanks I just put a message in global asking for help. Seems no one is on. Unfortunately this has been happening since yesterday. Thank you for trying to help.

I found someone to help thank you @warm bluff

[humble escarp]

hay does anyone know how to fix my single player game every time i open a ob thermal it crashes

[warm bluff]

try disabling "Dino Download" in your Single Player settings

it should be temporary until the next patch

[fickle cypress]

im trying to install mods on asa and it keeps giving me the 'not enough mod storage space' message even tho i have no mods installed, does anyone know why? it might be my disc space idk

[red plume]

Whenever a large defense outpost spawns it's always a gamma one
Anyone know how to get beta and alpha to spawn?

[ionic granite]

random

[red plume]

Do they despawn after some time or do we have to complete them?

Cause there's one near my base and it's always a large gamma

I've completed that one 2 times already

[safe mirage]

Is megalab babyfy still broken?

[warm bluff]

what creature do ya want to babify?

[safe mirage]

A theri

[warm bluff]

they do despawn after a while but it's better to start them then leave

[warm bluff]

move your base 💀

[warm bluff]

what part of it was broken?

[safe mirage]

It’s not an option in the megalab

It was broken some time ago apparently, might still be but I don’t know

[warm bluff]

oh, that bug

it was fixed a while ago

it works like normal but I think they changed it

it used to be that ya get some levels back

[safe mirage]

It doesn’t work though because the option isn’t there

[warm bluff]

but now, not only will it not give ya any levels back, it'll also reset the current xp and wipe the creature inventory including saddle

ya on Single Player?

[safe mirage]

No, an unofficial server

I don’t care about levels etc, I just need to make it not be an adult so I can add a trait, but the option to make it a baby is not there

[warm bluff]

contact an Admin

[safe mirage]

Does it work on official?

[warm bluff]

no clue but on my dedicated server, it works fine

I can see the icon and everything

[atomic star]

what does it mean when a server is greyed out and says refresh insetad of join

[warm bluff]

I think it means that server is offline

[atomic star]

Amazing so I'm unconscious in the middle of the redwood and the server offline

[warm bluff]

plus side, everyone else is unconscious on that server too

[safe mirage]

Just click refresh and then scroll to the bottom of the next list it bring up and it’ll be at the bottom and then you can cluck join on it

[median tapir]

Guys why do I do or how can I fix this issue maybe a dev knows or a mod but I beat the lost colony boss and now I’m stuck with a constant refreshing ark inventory and it causes the game to crash

I can’t get off the map

[elfin sparrow]

Can someone help me figure out why steam wont let me run ark

[hollow osprey]

Any servers experiencing Duplicate characters or the level character/inventory issue?

[bright imp]

i was yes, like two weeks ago, i had to download my other characters and delete them (i guess for pvp its game breaking, but i was on pve)

same with dino uploads, i have a phantom pyromane than i can continuously download and it never removes from the obelisk, its ark being ark

[hollow osprey]

Host Location

Can you please provide this information

I'm trying to escalate this issue to staff

[bright imp]

gettingthe server number wait a sec have to start ark

[hollow osprey]

It would be on your Nitrado dashboard

1. Check Your Nitrado Dashboard (Easiest Method)
   Log in to your Nitrado account and go to your server list.
   Select your server and go to its Dashboard.
   Look for options like "Change location" or "Server Settings"; the current location will be listed there (e.g., London, Frankfurt, New York City, Miami, Singapore, Sao Paulo, Tokyo, Sydney, and Los Angeles).

[bright imp]

it was on an official

[hollow osprey]

Oh so they are having tooo, that's not good

I wonder if it's has to do with the character thing they posted about

[bright imp]

Host Location nitrado official
Map the island
Mods christmas event
Game title ASA - NA PVE Theisland 5298
Can you please provide this information

[hollow osprey]

Ty

I'm a Moderator in the Nitrado Discord and we are seeing a few reports of this, had it happens 3 times this week on the server I admin for.

Definitely need as many as possible to report it.

More reports means faster resolution

[fresh yarrow]

I had this issue last week my inventory was empty then when I died it was back in my inventory

[bright imp]

yeah, its crazy that you can dupe characters and dinos accidentally

[hollow osprey]

We have been having to admin destroymytaget command on those who can't die

[weary idol]

So did they break the xp with the drakeling?

[hollow osprey]

Everything at the moment

[weary idol]

Looks that way

[warm bluff]

elaborate?

[warm bluff]

have ya tried giving them organic polymer?

or they can't even pick it up in the first place?

[hollow osprey]

Kill player command didn't work, admin gun didn't work, only thing was to use the destroy my target command looking at the player. Have them close the game, uninstall Mods, then while loading into the server install Mods.

This was the only fix that worked, same issue that arose when Ragnarok had these inventory issues

[warm bluff]

that sounds awful

[bright imp]

im glad i play official and single player so when issues like this happen i can just play on my sp until they are fixed

[warm bluff]

and it's all because a premium map that most people didn't even buy

[bright imp]

i think many pve players bought it, do we have statistics on this? maybe curseforge says how many downloads

[warm bluff]

that won't be reliable it counts every reinstall as well

[bright imp]

everyone i play with, and every content creator i watch has covered lsot colony, and they are makgin more paid dlc so i think its profitable

[verbal bloom]

is that a new idea?
when has ark not been profitable?
onlt assquatica did trash numbers

[full trout]

Did you find a fix for this?

[median tapir]

Nope

[median tapir]

Rip my character 1k hours

[full trout]

What did you do to stop it?@median tapir

[weary idol]

@warm bluff drakeling not getting mounted xp from killing stuff

[warm bluff]

it's working fine for me

I just killed an Alpha Raptor and got 19k xp

PS5 Pro, dedicated server Lost Colony

[bright imp]

i know 1xs xp its like 1-3k xp cant remember exactly but it takes a decent amount of alphas to max

[violet ingot]

can’t name unicorn 45h55s56w56m, it deletes the 55, how do i get around this?

[bright imp]

put a note in its invetnory

[verbal bloom]

xbox?

[violet ingot]

playstation

[verbal bloom]

ok, xbox is just bad censorship all around, PS hates 55, weird

[primal heath]

How do I fix the thralls spawning in the mesh?

[violet ingot]

apparently i can’t name it for its stats

[primal heath]

Spell it, fifty five

[civic ridge]

Ok so, ever since Ive gotten ark on ps5 (I got asa on it around when se was released for it), and every.. Id say.. 10? 15 minutes my game will just randomly crash, I play modded, BUT, I have tried unmodded, ive tried deleting the game files, reinstalling the game, ect. And... Im getting kind of disappointed. Anyone know if this is simply normal, or if somethings going on hardware wise, anything? I love ark but, its impossible to play, literally. And half the time the game wont even save my progress, even through manual saving. Ive also tried running commands and stuff to help up the fps. So its definitely not an fps problem (60/80 on average with the commands).

[violet ingot]

i really do have to spell out 55 stam lol

[verbal bloom]

try just 55, might be the string that is the issue

[primal heath]

I had this issue about 6 months ago. It's most likely a corrupt save file, either with the cloud or on your console. I had to delete EVERYTHING ark related and start from the beginning

[violet ingot]

local saves is where event skins for official characters is kept so i really don’t want to do that until it’s absolutely necessary

[civic ridge]

Thats the thing, ive tried all of that already. It just never worked. It makes me wonder if its a hardware issue, but, doubtful since its a ps5, there SHOULDNT be any hardware issues.

[bright imp]

if you did really try a complete reinstall that its more than likely a hardware issue with your PS

my ps4 eneded up having a failed part of its storage, and if games were so big and used the blocks that were faulty it would do something similiar

[civic ridge]

ill have to try to see if I can take a look around my local area to see if theres anyone able to take a peek at the things hardware, could be a memory issue, thatd suck but. Might be worth a try, if people can even look in a ps5.

[keen dune]

Hi guys - say - Ossidons are not spawning in on my Single Player game at ALL. Does anyone know what I can do to correct this? (Other than spawning them in, which I don't want to do).

Also - gigantoraptors spawn - but there are no nests. Beavers spawn, but there are no dams.

[bright imp]

single player is notrious for slow spawns, if your system can handle it host your single player in lan, go up pretty high, and just let it run for like 4 hours

[keen dune]

"go up pretty high" (What does that mean?) But ohhh, I never thought to host it to LAN, I'll try that, thanks! I usually have pretty long play sessions. Thank you!!

[verbal bloom]

non dedicated session changes nothing, it's still Sp and not a true server

[civic ridge]

wait, does arks spawn system work similarly to minecrafts system? where "entities" spawn more when a large distance away? or is it a rendering thing?

[verbal bloom]

no

render thing for SP

[keen dune]

Single Player is definitely a rendering thing. The quadrant doesn't wake up until you enter it, and then the minute you leave it goes dormant. That's the problem with Single Player.

[unborn pebble]

What do I do when I beat lost colony and I lose all my stuff when I spawn? Also when I spawn my game crashes

[verbal bloom]

dedicated server just load everything

[bright imp]

yeah its why i said open to lan, its def render

[civic ridge]

ahh, interesting

[bright imp]

oh i forgot, you have a startup option its like turnonallactivedinos thats so wrong

[civic ridge]

ill have to try that with aur.

[keen dune]

I should just install it on my server sigh but I hate programming. I just want to play! LOL

[bright imp]

enablestasisforalldinos no thats not it

[verbal bloom]

non dedicated fixes nothing, as it's just SP with allowing to invites to be in the host rendered area, the invited render nothing new

[bright imp]

aha, its this -preventhibernation

[verbal bloom]

u can try -ForceIgnoreSingleplayerSpawnRangeCheck in launch parameters too

haven't tested it myself, but from it's description it should work

[bright imp]

yeah try those to options, jus tknow preventhibernation makes it a bit heavier to run

[verbal bloom]

prevent hibernation just stop unloading of areas, u still need to fly around 1 time at the start of each session

[warm bluff]

I'm on 1x EXP though.. wasn't even using an Enlightenment broth

[bright imp]

damn, yeah it must be broken then, ive always gotten jsut a couple thousand from raptors, or its console based and 1xs rates for sp is different than pc

[warm bluff]

there's going to be an engine update in a few months, maybe that would help

[warm bluff]

what map?

[bright imp]

ossidons only spawn on lost colony now

[warm bluff]

yep, they might not have gotten the memo

[bright imp]

ah gotcha

[brisk roost]

Game is so wank I just wanna play and I die and I can’t even fucking load in because the games so ass

[bright imp]

i 100% agree, they said the next unreal update will get a 40% boost, but this game wasnt made for this gen, it was made for next gen consoles

[verbal bloom]

same as ASE with the last gen
PS4 ASE was a nightmare

ark always needs next gen, and series S existing doesn't help this gen

[warm bluff]

I really hope the PS6 and whatever next gen Xbox is going to be are able to run this game as smooth and visually appealing as current PC can

I'm fine with 1080p 60fps as long as its stable

[verbal bloom]

if they see a big jump like 40series to 50series don't count on it

[warm bluff]

I know that ASA will probably be no longer updated by then

[verbal bloom]

ASA has 2 to 3 more years, minimum

this gen is already getting old

[bright imp]

theres a huge issue with next gen, all the big companies are together now, and renting a pc sounds better to them then selling parts anymore, so they said this year 2026 they are going to start reducing how many parts they make by 30%... because money is what they want. i really hope the EU steps in cause its shit for consumers

[verbal bloom]

yippe, they going to price hike us out of our hobbies for AI

[warm bluff]

and we barley got games that utilize the hardware 😢

this November should be the 6th year of PS5 I believe?

[verbal bloom]

only?

feels like it's been 9y of it

[bright imp]

i dont mind consoles lasting longer (if thats what you are talking about) i just want developers to stop making games that need the latest hardware, theres no need anymore, hardware is great just make it for the majority of computers out there, its like the developers are in cahoots with the part makers

[plucky hazel]

What's it mean if a dino has a wooden shield icon over its name?

[verbal bloom]

it can't get stunned again

[still monolith]

naive to beleive WC would actually be on time dont you think ?

[plucky hazel]

thanks

[bright imp]

never on time, but you cant deny the update to 5.5 (although buggy) did improve performance

[verbal bloom]

months is the timewindow they work with

[still monolith]

IMO the 5.5 update just made the game **less ** optimized, actually

volumetrics are more expensive (biggest perf hog besides main lighting), LOD's nerfed to the ground, textures constantly streaming in and out even with sufficient VRAM..

[bright imp]

the pop-in is for performance, i notice that a lot now

[still monolith]

yeah.. except the game also runs significantly worse than it did in 5.2

atleast for me

[bright imp]

i have the 2000 series gpus, and i saw performance, what are you on?

[still monolith]

PS5 to 6 should be a massive perf increase
as the PS5's HW is already 2(to 3) gens old by PC standards, and by the time the PS6 comes out it will be using a gen of HW not even PC has currently

[still monolith]

RX 9060 XT 16GB

[verbal bloom]

hopefully

[bright imp]

i am not very familar with RX XT but does that utilize the new cubic whatever that was introduced with ray tracing?

[still monolith]

the PS5's GPU is a 6600 XT equivelent that has access to 10GB's of VRAM, my low-mid end current gen card wipes the floor with it

[still monolith]

theres a lot of new tech thats been intruduced with RT this gen.. you'd have to be more specific
but this game doesnt use any of them, as its not using Hardware raytracing at all

[bright imp]

im out of the loop with the very new stuff, im thinking the new arcitecture for ray tracing, i think thats what was improved specefically for 5.5, i havent researched gpus since the 2080 released lol

[warm bluff]

anti-stun protection, it's to prevent getting infinitely stunned

[warm bluff]

what about the Pro model?

[still monolith]

nothing related changed between 5.2 and 5.5
the closest thing would be the Lumen reflections denoiser being improved, atleast that i could think of, tho supposedly lighting perf is significantly better inf 5.5, according to epic anyways, but theres no HW specific new thing..

[hoary raft]

whats going on with astreos RN?

[red olive]

The 5.7 could be big

[still monolith]

the pro model gets current gen (RX 9000) RT cores and custom sony ML cores (for PSSR, and maybe soon FSR 4 ?!) the rasterization HW gets a few instructions from RDNA 3 (RX 7000) but at the core the GPU is still just RDNA 2 (RX 6000) and the chip gets a node shrunk to 6nm IIRC, the CPU and memory config is identical

[still monolith]

voxelized foliage will save us 🙏

[warm bluff]

just get rid of foliage all together

most people grass.sizescale 0 it anyways

and the grass is too freaking long in this game

[bright imp]

grass.desityScale 0

[still monolith]

mhm, that doesnt help trees at all (which is where voxel foliage would actually be used)
and ruins the visuals

[warm bluff]

is this a better command?

[bright imp]

i spelled density wrong

it gets rid of foliage

[still monolith]

only grass tho, trees will still be there

[bright imp]

i mean, sir you need to see the resources to harvest them

[still monolith]

which likely costs more perf anyway
and thats what voxel foliage would be applied to anyway..

[bright imp]

the two biggest perforamce boosts you can do if you dont care what the game looks like, is putting on ultra performance mod, and checking disable HLOD

[still monolith]

if you are gonna nuke settings to the ground in a remaster why not play the OG (that will also run better if you lower a few settings) ?

[bright imp]

and since its possible to create skins for everything its possible for someone to develop a big mod that reduces the resolution over all, (changing the graphics style) so it still looks good but would run a lot better, but that would take a very long time

[still monolith]

no. devs would have to do that themselves. as the big perf hitters are map assets that cant be modified by skins at all

rendering the actual structures is nothing compared to the cost of general world geometry

[silent umbra]

how do you fix the center rock texture glitch

[bright imp]

screenshot?

[silent umbra]

check fanart and screenshots

every harvestable rock and cliff is greyed out

[still monolith]

wadda... are you using any console commands ?

[bright imp]

looks like cpu rendering, its using the playdoh models because you are so high

[silent umbra]

no im on all epic settings idk

it doesnt happen on any other map tho just center

[still monolith]

CPU doesnt do any rendering
if it did, he'd be getting 5fps

[bright imp]

each map was developed a different ssome with completely different people, it can just be how its being rendered

[still monolith]

textures probably decided to just not render for those objects
@silent umbra what GPU do you have ? and have you ever deleted your settings ini files ? if not, try deleting them (will reset your settings tho) and do you have a performance mod ?

[silent umbra]

5070ti

and only mods i have are creature mods and dinofinder

[bright imp]

dinofinder which? der dino finder is heavy

[prime agate]

6414 LC crashed, others having issues?

[bright imp]

its a bug fix update sir, everyone is having more issues now lol

[prime agate]

Oy, no warning

[waxen basin]

ayo is it possible that my server just got deleted i was playing on 8282 and then it just went off and now it’s gone for like 3 Hours

[dusk pagoda]

Thralls are still getting meshed into the ground when you crash while in the thrall, lost 5 good thralls because of this

[crimson whale]

stop crashing

[bright imp]

looks like lost colony is having crashing issues, any other maps? im on the center in the red woods breeding dreadmare all day about to switch to sloths

[keen dune]

Lost Colony map - I know they don't spawn on the other maps now. 🙂

[nocturne hill]

it is a 6700, almost literally identical. higher memory bandwidth, though. way higher than a 6600 XT

center rock thing is a bug, though. wildcard acknowledged it

[still monolith]

Downclocked tho

[nocturne hill]

actually higher clocked

although that will vary game to game

functionally, it will act like a desktop 6700 in most scenarios

[ripe granite]

So i have an issue everytime i kill a boss on fjordur bih dosent Drop me anythinf

[bright imp]

i googled, the ps5s gpu is a custom amd rna 2 gpu, so you are both wrong, and it is not over clocked

[nocturne hill]

why interject when you know nothing about the topic

[bright imp]

because ps5 has the specs on their website

[nocturne hill]

no, they dont

they have some marketing babble for consumers. none of the big companies publish the actual specs of anything on the public side

[bright imp]

oh man, news has def ruined peoples faith in companies haha

[nocturne hill]

base PS5's "Oberon" GPU is almost identical to an RX 6700, both RDNA2, same core config. only different is it has 8 instead of 5 memory channels and some custom decoder hardware ect

Navi22 goes up to 8 memory channels anyway, so it is just using the full chip's capabilities with some extra stuff tacked on, while keeping the 6700's cut-down core specs

core clock is about 200Mhz higher than a desktop 6700, which is well within variation between different models already

[bright imp]

i lost my freaking airship, since update has anyone else had their airship disappear?

[nocturne hill]

it is called actually knowing what you are talking about instead of believing marketing slides you dont understand make you an instant expert

[bright imp]

yeah ai makes you a real expert sir

[nocturne hill]

weirdly specific, feeling insecure about using a google overview to randomly snap out with "ackshully.. u wrong"?

regardless, total waste of time

[bright imp]

My zepline was at 50/50 stuck in the mesh. You can track vehicles as well just learned this

[balmy scroll]

when does the neophite come for you when you have 50 anger?

[lapis lance]

On singleplayer settings is the tek cave boss hard on gamma/beta? I havent had any trouble with the alpha guardians

[midnight jungle]

Is there anyway of geting thralls that are under the map out or are they stuck there forever

[gritty sinew]

Currently doing the boss battle on LC and twice now one of the dinos have glitched into the rooms with the thralls in and we can't get them out

[grave hound]

If the baby maturation speed is set to 5

What’s the needed value for the care interval so I only gotta imprint once

Secondly what value is needed for the mating interval so my therizinos only mate every hour

[olive pilot]

Hello, playing on Lost Colony on a Nitrado server with my buddy and for some reason we can build sometimes in our base area and then sometimes we cant, any work around for this? I assume its the small outpost nearby.

[crimson moon]

Anyone know how I can change my tame ordering group none of these Dino’s are listening to my whistles. Also don’t have a number pad on my keyboard

[nocturne hill]

may need to rebind or use a controller. common tenkeyless experience

[agile canyon]

hey, Ive done multiple attack outposts, and gotten no crimson sigils. how do get them

[sacred finch]

Anyone else keep shooting their gloon on their shoulder? It doesn’t do damage but it still blocks attacks

[hybrid finch]

Anyone know if there is a way to unbind a veilwyn from you when its recovering?

[tepid pebble]

Anyone know how to find your oss id number on xbox? Whoami not working

[left basin]

I have the lost colony expansion pass but am unable to use skills. I used em before lost even came out

[woeful trout]

If you can use commands use the remove buff command

[verbal crown]

since last night i keep getting ARK inventory popping up when i open my inventory. then i have to sit there and wait for it to time out.

[split bridge]

Would anyone be willing to answer some breeding questions I have via DMs? I’m breeding on official and I understand some of what to do but I’m getting pretty hung up on a specific part.

[idle niche]

Is there a setting I'm missing? I keep seeing other video of people walking by outposts and it sets a label on it telling you what type of mission it is. Also, First time finding an Alpha Mission today, and it decides to not spawn enemies. In Fact, in the 4 weeks all I've found are Gamma Missions. No Betas, and finally 1 Alpha, Anyway if figuring ouit what I'm missing?

[snow abyss]

What's the deal with spawing treasure maps in the city. Can't fly to it, and tried to ride a megatherium to it and I was attacked by everything I passed until I cryoed my mount and then they started attacking me and I wasn't hostile or anything. @carmine lance can we change this please. It's frustrating to not be able to get high lvl maps because of this. Lost 5 or 6 already because of this isssue

[verbal bloom]

Just don't ride stuff inside the city, they have a small buffer time before they get mad at u.
Kill some revenants, remove the hostility.
Go back and just walk there.
Or just go with a mana jumping to where u need

Thrall will attack u if u, are riding a tame or have a dangerous weapon in hand or u attack them

[snow abyss]

I killed a bunch of revenant before I went in the city and still got attacked even after I cryoed my mount. All I had in my hand was a shovel...crazy

[verbal bloom]

Tagging dollie is neither the bug report button nor the suggestion button

[verbal bloom]

Just pull out the shovel when u need to dig it

When u are in the 300m range

[snow abyss]

@verbal bloom ok...didn't realize it was an issue

[somber canopy]

Im on single player, is there a command to reset resources on map? no matter what settings i have obs never respawns,

ive even afk'd for an hour

[nocturne hill]

no. if you changed resource respawn rate while stuff is respawning, that can break the math

[somber canopy]

that kind of makes some sense as i was fiddling with settings trying to get it to spawn faster then base rates

[tardy briar]

What’s the best Way maximize element from veins

I made it golden put town bell had mare boost and capped pick with high melee mantis but only got 1.2k

[dusky kiln]

Manas are great to get in and out.

[inner fractal]

I have been breeding and mutating for years what is the issue I should be able to help

[neat swan]

What proof of cheating do I need and do I need implants?

[inner fractal]

Are you just hitting the middle large vein as a 50k vein should give way more then that

Go around and hit all the smaller stubs first then when everything is clear but the large center vein jump hit it with mantis

[dusky kiln]

Goto your map and turn on the missions tab

[orchid hearth]

hey, the cosmetics unlocked via the skill point missions dissapeared on me after my server restarted on official... this happening to anyone else?

[plucky hazel]

Is there a server setting you can use that will skew wild dino levels towards the higher range?

[dusky kiln]

No but there are mods that help

[plucky hazel]

Can you recommend a good one?

[dusky kiln]

Vanilla with sprinkle, better Dino levels

Vanilla with sprinkles has lots of features rolled into one

Syntacs mod

[plucky hazel]

I'll check that out, much appreciated!

[plucky hazel]

Does that also raise max level to 150 and the Island?

[dusky kiln]

I believe it would yes

Enable max difficulty on server settings

[shrewd roost]

Is there any way to fix thralls and stuff not spawning in city, im trying to complete a mission but can't without their spawns

On singleplayer

[true hamlet]

anyone know how to fix not being able to free place on the ground but not your foundations

[lone cairn]

They dont spawn at night

[tiny bramble]

Has anyone actually unlocked the “Lost Poncho” skin yet? If so, how’d you get it.

[verbal bloom]

What's a "lost poncho"?

That's the skin for what exactly?

[tiny bramble]

Chestpiece

[verbal bloom]

Oh, u mean from one of the armor sets the thralls use?

[orchid hearth]

O.o rip me then i guess

[tiny bramble]

Yeah, oddly enough, it’s basically the same armor piece as the first cosmetic set you unlock from the LC milestones, only difference is, it has a poncho. Did some testing just to see if it’s unlocked via the milestones and it isn’t.

[verbal bloom]

I know some are random unlock via completing missions

U know what class of thrall uses that piece?

[candid bramble]

Hey guys I think there's an issue with the transmitters of any sort.

[primal heath]

I had problems with thralls spawning in the mesh, so I got a rail gun. Now the enemy structures are spawning under the map too. I really hope they fix that

[candid bramble]

If you click and drag items really fast into the transmitter to craft, it will get put into the inventory for transferring to another map.

[orchid hearth]

bah ive accidentally changed tame groups on PC help lol how did i do that so i can go back to group 0

[tiny bramble]

It’s the piercer

[sour tide]

3rd time enemy managarmr meshed in boss fight and we are unable to kill it on official PVE thereby ruining the boss fight and wasting all the sigils farmed from one small outpost - ticket submitted - nothing done about it

we are still in the boss arena if someone has any tips

[onyx hollow]

In Lost Colony Singleplayer, my veilwyn died and was resting, and soon after I quit the game. When logging back, no more rest timer, and my Veilwyn was not on my list of dino. Is that bug known?

[warm bluff]

Wait until a future update

I believe WC intentionally disabled NPC from spawning in Single Player because they're one the primary reasons that is causing crashes

they did so just before they went on holiday so that they couldn't be bothered attempting to fix it

let me tell ya as a console player (PS5 Pro) playing on a dedicated server

the city is straight up garbage

ya so much as look at it, the game will crash

[warm bluff]

so it wasn't just me then! I this happened to me the other day

[warm bluff]

I think holding H pulls up the radial menu?

[warm bluff]

yes, there's a command ya can use to instantly respawn it but otherwise, try to leave your Veilwyn in companion mode when logging off

[onyx hollow]

Erf, it's not the first time i quit the game with my veilwyn dead and never had a problem, that's why i never need to rez him with cmd. Well, not a big loss but i'm a little sad xD

[unique olive]

I've been wondering: Isn't it possible to run a generator for much longer than a month by having a sir-5orm8 fill it up with gasoline that's pre crafted in a vault?

[elder cipher]

Hello everyone !
I don't know if it was already told but Rock Drakes have a problem with feathers on their head.
They're are always 'deployed' like there's always a Reaper near it when riding.

[warm bluff]

yes, that's a known issue

on Lost Colony or all maps?

[honest bolt]

Anyone else done the Lost colony boss Beta difficulty with 8-10 people and then have the boss randomly do 1200 DMG? ( person had full armor on and durability.)? just wondering why so much dmg when highest I saw on youtube was 500-600DMG with good armor. This person had correct skills learned for dmg reduction too food buffs the works.

[elder cipher]

It was on Aberration, so the more common map for Reaper lmao

But as they're not spawning in the green zone, it was my alarm for this problem

[warm bluff]

yes ya can but given how trash that thing is, I'm not sure if ya want to place your trust on it

[elder cipher]

I was trying to steal an essence of "Dazzling Rock Drake" from the Shiny mod, I was in a blind state because of this problem lmao

[warm bluff]

I think it's because they changed reapers to Revenant reapers

[elder cipher]

Reaper Queen jumpscare 🙃

[warm bluff]

do modded creature drop death essence even?

[elder cipher]

On the shiny mod, you can 'extract' the essence of the shiny if it's special

And yeah, modded creatures can be droppable

[warm bluff]

might be because the mod hasn't been updated due to the devkit still not updated

hasn't*

[elder cipher]

To be fair, it's just "an addition" of the vanilla creature

I'm note sure if the "effects" are causing the creature to be a mod

[warm bluff]

try joining the mod discord server

[elder cipher]

Already on it, I just need to test with a vanilla one

So nope, they're doing the same as the "shiny one" xD

I was on Astraeos this time

[warm bluff]

what 😂

the bot thought I was spamming 🫨

[elder cipher]

He's a little nervous for the start of the week

[warm bluff]

oh, ok, my bad @regal wind

[unique olive]

If only Wildcard would improve their pathfinding :(

[warm bluff]

if only improve anything and not break 7 different things in the process

are ya on Single Player or your own dedicated server by chance?

[unique olive]

I had them in a big empty hall for a while with only devices next to walls and he worked fine there so I assume placing Vaults on one side and a gen on the other would make it easy for one bot to keep the gen filled

[unique olive]

A small private cluster

[warm bluff]

are ya host?

[unique olive]

Ye

[warm bluff]

then look up the "Sir-5rM8 Fix" mod

it's a new one, just recently created

it might help

[valid thistle]

There's a boy named Rain in 6115 who keeps bringing his raft close to our base, preventing us from entering. Is there anything we can do about it?

He says he won't let me leave unless I give him and his friends gifts like Giganoto.

But we're just getting started, so we don't have that.

[warm bluff]

give him a dodo named giganto then blow up the C4

[valid thistle]

I'm moving out because you're too pushy.

can anybody give me a little help? i play ark survival evolved and i downloaded it yesterday and i played for a few hours and had a good progression, today when i woke up pressed to play it told me to create a new character is there anyway for me to make the game load my old(yesterday)character? my save game still fine just my character that aint loading right for some reason.

[vale skiff]

pve? report him #reporting-players screenshots and video needed

[warm bluff]

look up "how to switch to Pre-Aquatica ARK Evolved" on YouTube

this is a very common issue when playing Evolved on Steam Single Player

[sullen shore]

now can i ask you a different question? does ascended has these bugs?

[warm bluff]

no but your PC might not be able to handle ASA

[primal heath]

Any tips for thralls structures spawning in the mesh during outpost missions?

[manic pebble]

yu know how to glitch thralls ?

[primal heath]

No, how

[royal pond]

Could anyone answer why im crashing so much on Xbox and what I could do to fix it

[verbal frost]

yo guys, what do you think about wildcard making outpost to spawn nearly after 2-4 weeks after map was released? many players got bases on the outuposts area before the outpost were added, will they be nuked, or outposts willl spawn at another places?

[safe thicket]

so is LC down? my cluster won’t let me load into rag or LC

[tepid pebble]

I lost my character after transferring to lost colony then it crashed and rolled back 40 mins. @nova sand how long it take to get my character back roughly?

[nova sand]

there is no que for it atm so will be fast

[verbal bloom]

lil skittle no more, they all grown up now

[tepid pebble]

hi guys, me and my friend (same network using the epic games ark version) have been trying to make our own private server and we cannot connect to eachother although we can see the server pop up, any idea why?

[lament thunder]

the server got rolled back when i transferred to other map, when i come back the server got rolled back and i’m not in my tribe anymore

i sent you the DM

[marble burrow]

how the fuck does the veilwyn aggro work? It doesn't attack me when I stand, but it attacked me when I tamed a parasaur, ended up killing it too.

[verbal bloom]

they don't like bullies, they see a bully and they decide to bully the bully

[ionic scarab]

Water where castoreides spawn on ps5 is 100% crash zone. Verified with multiple users. Crash can lock ps5. If you have a disc version, putting a disc in will recover it.

[ashen scarab]

Morning All , is anyone have problems with thralls on logistic mode when you log in and out ? they seem to stop doing everything can i have to reset them by a cryo ball , am i doing something wrong ?

[marble burrow]

So they decide to end the parasaur's life too huh

Anyways, is it normal in lost colony for the map to not reveal?

[orchid hearth]

anyone know why my map on PC refuses to load fully?

its suuuper pixelated

[buoyant gorge]

pls helpppp hi guys, me and my friend (same network using the epic games ark version) have been trying to make our own private server and we cannot connect to eachother although we can see the server pop up, any idea why?

[young cedar]

I would try maybe #unofficial-setup-help

[warm bluff]

the Necrotic Mark isn't something a tamed Gloon does by its own

yay have to manually switch to it

[warm bluff]

known issue on PS5, try playing Single Player for 10-15 minutes, save your progress from the Pause Menu then restart your console and see if that fixes it

ya also need at least 60GB free on your console

[warm bluff]

does this work on console too?

[warm bluff]

it probably had a baby nearby blending in the snow and that aggro it to ya

[marble burrow]

so it works the same as oviraptor, got it. Thanks!

is there a behavior setting that im not aware of to stop creatures from eating the corpse they kill?

[warm bluff]

no, that's either a bug or it was intentionally disabled to make Lost Colony harder

unless it's Alpha creatures

those can't actually harvest corpses

[marble burrow]

no I meant I want to harvest the corpse instead of my creatures just eating it.

im aware of the change with carnivores not healing now

[warm bluff]

oh, then Hold E on your creatures

Behavior > Disable Attacking Unconscious

and whistle it passive

Natural, Aggressive and Attack your target all will make the creature eat the carcass

there's no setting that straight up prevent your tames from harvesting a carcass

but ya can kinda do it by using Herbivore

most of these can't harvest carcass

[pastel crane]

why cant i see ANY server at all, official, unofficial n stuff

[warm bluff]

I think they're deploying the new Lost Colony major patch

[cosmic nebula]

can anyone help please. just had a server rollback now my hotbar wont work and i keep gettin inventory refreshing and it just blinks then kicks me to main menu and says battleeye cant conect with client. ive tried everything nothing works

[warm bluff]

^^ it's probably related to this

[cosmic nebula]

hopefully it was about a hr ago this happen

[warm bluff]

yeah, it's probably that because I'm seeing videos of PC players already on the new update but consoles aren't

[cosmic nebula]

ive yet to get a update and im on pc

[cerulean bone]

Wildcard would announce it

[warm bluff]

that's strange, I just saw Raasclark video about the new changes

like Defense Outposts having less waves, heal after each wave and no Neophytes

do popular content creators get early access 🙃?

Is anybody else having this fucking issue, this game keeps breaking my drivers and i end up with a black screen

Edit: seems like it is a fucking issue, doesn't even happen when this game first released.

[native willow]

Strange, I’ll have to try all the settings. It’s just when I have it on my shoulder and it agros on something say a bug in a cave that is attacking me. Then it quite often gives the tame I am riding a necrotic mark which isn’t idea for the deamodus cave haha.

[vagrant ether]

Sooo how to fix greyed out server unable to join? Tribemate having issue like described, resetted everything that can think of. I can play normally, and so many others aswell. Few having issues. Tribemate on xbox app on pc. And official servers. Any help appreciated!

[rough raven]

Are the new lost colony cosmetics still bugged out? When they didn’t work on release I took a break to wait for them; has anyone been able to actually get them on private servers?

[safe mirage]

Have you clicked refresh on the grey server and then scrolled to the bottom of the list it provides and then clicked it again to join?

[vagrant ether]

He unfavorited it and now cant even find server. Battlemetrics says its been down nearly 1 hour, but i have been on the server with like half of the server aswell, just few we know have same issue and cant join/see server at all.

[safe mirage]

Have they just updated? Might be that their platform updated but the server hasn’t. Anyone on the server will be fine but people who updated won’t be

[vagrant ether]

Server crashed and some of us got back in after it was back up, some didnt, and no one has had update 🤔 this is some weird stuff going on definetly.

[warm bluff]

nope, still bugged for me, waiting for the major patch to drop

I can cheat the skins using a mod though

[eager goblet]

I dm’d you about the “refreshing ark inventory” bug which I also have

[nova sand]

if you had a mouse and Keyboard yes. but if you don't account name is fine i can find it myself

[warm bluff]

why ya do need a mouse and keyboard specifically?

I'm just curious how that command works on consoles that's all

[nova sand]

with mouse and keyboard you the the same console window as PC users to do the double tab thing. thats all and thats were your EOS ID will be displayed

[plucky hazel]

Anytime I login to my game or transfer servers the cosmetics on my armor remain, but the cosmetics on my tools and weapons always reset. Is there a way to resolve that?

[warm bluff]

wait what, the console command window is in the console version of the game too?

[olive elm]

For some reason deinotheriums wont recognize that I’m trying to tame them and won’t begin the taming animations. Any fixes?

[candid bramble]

On Mouse/keyboard we have the option to move items via the T button to avoid the bug.

[unique mesa]

Well they have to want to let you tame them. So they may say nope for a long time . Patiennce and you may get that nod

[olive elm]

The problem I’m having is that they don’t even sniff the beer in my hot bar

[unique mesa]

Its in zero? Are you close?

[olive elm]

I get as close as I can before aggroing but it wont sniff

[novel dew]

Anyone else having insta crash issues on Lost Colony single player?

[ripe kernel]

I was told that Anklyos have never autofarmed crystal and obsidian on official, but that's news to me.
It's only been since LC was released that it no longer seems to be autofarming these resources and I'd just like to put it out there bc as a solo player 80% of the time this makes playing the game more difficult.
Farming gets boring, the auto harvest setting should apply to crystal and obsidian too.

[verbal bloom]

Maybe in the future

It's already amazing that they now harvest flint and metal till slot cap

[zenith cave]

i love slot capping the anky with metal and they taking it home in a dreadmares blackhole LOL

[verbal bloom]

Ark is such a weird game to describe

Show this to someone that doesn't know it, we all speaking crazy

[calm path]

anyone else having issues with tribe tower not working? Just noticed my doed should be gaining 24.6% taming per kibble at 3x taming and 36% bonus, but its only gaining 18.1%, which is how it would be at 3x taming without a tribe tower

[zenith cave]

nah i gave up on that thing too - takes far too long to build up and for some reason it lost all its stacks of shark teeth in it and i lost my bonus i had it going for over 6 months - i really can be bothered to keep it going that long

[void glen]

Hi, I recently started playing Ark Asa, and while it was initially fine, I noticed something strange. When I open my smithy inventory, I get a lag of about 10-15 seconds each time. This didn't happen when I tried to open other items. Does anyone know what might be causing this? I'd be grateful for any tips.

[verbal bloom]

I think it's cause frame gen gets mostly disabled inside inventory so the txt doesn't become a mess

[calm path]

This bug happens regardless of frame gen

any inventory with a lot of items does it, if you disable menu transitions you see the lag happens while loading remote inventory

[potent swan]

Alpha Lost Colony still not working....... boss wont take any damage, pls fix

[lone cairn]

How many in the boss ?

[potent swan]

3. Ensured all tames made it to final destanation. cut scene started then take out the pillars but king wont take any damage when he lands.

[lone cairn]

Oh the king not taking damage weird its normally the queen

[potent swan]

Yeah we heard about that but I guess its our fault since we made it through on gamma and beta no problem so figured why not try alpha but no bueno

[cerulean bone]

How many people were present?

Heard only 9 people can enter the boss fight

[lone cairn]

Yh my tribe thinks wildcard fu on the queen as it apparently scales damage resistance to the amount of players inside so probes 10% damage res per player and 10nplayer would mean 100% damage res so you have to sacrifice someone and then queen takes damage

[gritty sinew]

Anyone having trouble getting minor crimson sigils?? Been doing gamma attacks for the last two days but got non

[languid nacelle]

Can something be done about the Npcs glitching out during outposts. We have failed so many just to timing out because they never spawn in correctly.

[hushed shell]

I’m having an issue with Template Hammer on my private server. I can import builds, but it won’t let me place them. Is there a setting or permission that needs to be enabled?

[ripe kernel]

It is, but my partner and I (we share the console usually unless our kid isn't home) have been autofarming those resources with no issue up until the new map. Apparently other people were never able to do that at all, I feel spoiled even complaining about it bc we've been using our Ankys like that for a while, it just sucks now that we're back to being primitive on this new map. Farming has been exhausting, it's just an added difficulty when there are no tribe mates to help.🫠

[celest harness]

if stuck in terrain use a tek rail gun

which shouldnt be the case wild card should just fix the game or not drop the map when its not ready

like if any testing at all went into the map they would see that the missions are incredbly buggy. from not spawning correctly to npcs being in the mesh when they spawn and even worse mobs/boss leave mission zone and you cannot go after them.

[warm bluff]

try now after the update

I believe it is a bug where Gamma and Beta don't reward ya with Crimson Sigil, only Alpha did

ya can use higher tier sigil for lower one by the way

[dusk pagoda]

Hopefully they will fix the thralls getting meshed if we crash

[lean night]

are they ever gonna enable the thralls back in single player

[warm bluff]

ya don't want that

it'll permanently corrupt your save file

the only reason it's not disabled in dedicated servers is that, most of the time, the client is the one that crashes, not the server

so ya can eventually get your character out of the city

but on Single Player, it'll keep reset your save file back by 30 minutes and if got really unlucky and the auto save kicked in just before ya crash

that's it, your save file is gone because everytime ya load back in, the game will crash again

TLDR: consoles can't handle the city

[limber drum]

whats the best map to found tek rexes in ASA?

[zealous marten]

If someone is curious about the latest patch Speculative fix for players being unable to access terminals on LC map - it did not solve the crash upon accessing a terminal/transmitter, at least on Single Player. Also not specific to Lost Colony, happens on every map.

Doubt it's of much value but just in case, Unhandled Exception: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION reading address 0x0000000000000118 is the error.

Also random new issues since 2-3 patches ago: no longer getting Sigils for the Attack missions. Defense work fine.

[warm bluff]

The Island, there's a small island where mostly carnivores spawn in

[warm bluff]

try disabling Dino Download in your Single Player settings

[zealous marten]

I did read this could help - however unsure of the impact on uploaded creatures

[warm bluff]

Sigil are apparently bugged, only the Alpha ones drop them

[zealous marten]

I missed out even on Alpha attack ones personally

[warm bluff]

ya simply won't be able to download them that's all

once the issue is addressed, ya can enable it then get your creatures out

[young juniper]

When are they going to fix the issue where the terminals prevent you from entering other maps and you can't summon any bosses in single-player mode?

[warm bluff]

personally, the upload/download creature feature on Terminals is unreliable especially on Single Player console

[warm bluff]

elaborate?

[zealous marten]

there was an attempt at it with this patch, but it's not working as intended, and as 6210 pointed out, disabling Dino Download may allow you to interact with terminals

[warm bluff]

that feature is not reliable on Single Player, especially on consoles

it only works on clustered servers

which official all are, go figure

[zealous marten]

It has improved greatly since the update that introduced single player backups etc, I believe the character file is also different now (no longer standalone), and has been working fine as long as you don't already have an existing save with another character (even if that one is uploaded) from recent experience. Worked for weeks prior to LC release.

[limber drum]

i mean in ASA not ASE

[gritty ermine]

Tek is only found on Extinction and Astareos in ASA without mods.

[warm bluff]

oh wait, I didn't read

[limber drum]

+1

[warm bluff]

Tek Rex 🤦🏼‍♀️

[limber drum]

yes tek

[young juniper]

It worked for me, thank you.

[gritty ermine]

Tek creatures are only found on those maps in ASA

[warm bluff]

my bad, Tek creatures only spawn in Extinction and Astraeos

if ya want them to spawn on other maps, ya have to edit ini or install a mod

[limber drum]

which map has more tek rexes ext or astra?

[verbal bloom]

astra

[warm bluff]

Astraeos

because it's currently the largest map in the game

[limber drum]

I didnt get the explorer not or the skins for the 3/15 milestone and i only got the explorer note for the 6/15 milestone. Is there any way to restart the milestone missions withoit creating a new character?

[zealous marten]

unsure if related but just in case: after I unlocked the 3/15 skins and a few others through missions, I fast traveled using beds and lost all earned cosmetics. Turns out that killing your character/dying seems to restore them

cheat them back or wait until the next patch

Hopefully someone more knowledgeable than me can help with a server question. I'm trying to speed up baby raising by a bit, so I have mature speed set to 20, I also want to make sure I can imprint on it so I have cuddle interval set to 0.01, and I have imprint amount set to 50. So from what I understand this should make it so babies grow 20x faster, should let me imprint, and each imprint will give 50% progress?

Hey, I need help, the new update came out today and I cant update it because it "doesn't have enough disk space" I have the last patch fully downloaded on both my laptop and desktop and both have enough space (100 gbs) but neither can download it, ive done everything between deleting steams temp file, clearing the cache, and restarting my pcs, what do I do? I dont wanna have to download the whole thing again

[chilly bone]

hoping someone can finally help me with an ark bug
i switched my resolution to my monitors resolution (2560 1440) and now half the menu is useless, i cant open a game or change settings with wont let me click on most things

[cobalt arch]

Thats not good, that means the maps are gonna be broken

[nocturne hill]

you dont have enough space, the patch needs more than the download size

[nocturne hill]

hit F11 twice

[formal solar]

150 gb is not enough?

[chilly bone]

thanks

[nocturne hill]

depending on the patch, steam may copy the entire game to apply it, or just part of it

[mystic saffron]

How long they gonna leave tickets unresolved?

[formal solar]

good god

thanks then

[chilly bone]

so can i not use my custom resolution?

[nocturne hill]

what?

[chilly bone]

it breaks everytime i set it to 2560 1440

it should be set to your screen resolution

has anyone found a fix for thralls not working properly when riding dinos? they still attack with their weapons but the dino just sits there

[chilly bone]

it auto sets to 1600x900 but thats not my screen resolution

are you sure about that? because the game thinks and is acting like it is. what happens when you hit F11?

sounds like you put it in fullscreen, though

How do you manage to turn an entire server cluster's worth of creatures on breeding. How does something that catastrophic even happen

[nocturne hill]

set the game to that, then. and set it to borderless window/windowed fullscreen, not full fullscreen. that is a broken compatibility mode for 15+ year old stuff

and at least you will get about twice the fps, this way

[pale sigil]

Anyone know of the missing lost colony milestones skins are fixed?

[barren pulsar]

Are Unofficial servers back up?

[nocturne hill]

depends on the server

[limpid socket]

So I’m gonna assume that gestational dinos (haven’t tested egg layers) being able to mate even when the male’s Mating is disabled after the new patch is not intended?

[lyric lance]

It's not. :)

[cosmic nebula]

Anyone know a fix for the refreshing inventory bug I can’t do anything I’ve done everything and it still happening

Screen flickers and says refreshing inventory and u can’t do anything then it just kicks me out to main menu happend after a server rollback this morning

[bright sleet]

LC server still does not have any beaver dams.. anyone else’s server have same problem

[umbral adder]

Anyone have any wisdom to bestow? I just recently redownloaded ark so run up another server one of my buddies was making and no matter what i do I cant find it on the list. And yes I downloaded the PreAquatica beta.

[tropic meteor]

i found one dam on unofficial. if you’re on official it’ll be even rarer

[bright sleet]

Dang lol I got lots of beavers..no dams and the last patch said that they should spawn now .. well just have to keep grinding cementing paste old fashion way till the next patch

[chilly bone]

so going from 4 to 8?

sweet

[nocturne hill]

i have concerns. are you trying to play on an igpu or something?

[chilly bone]

im making a joke

[nocturne hill]

you jest, but i see people trying to install ASA on an AMD phenom

also an intel™ dual-core so low-end it has no series name or specs on ark.intel

the GPU specs was just "cores: 2"

[chilly bone]

i get like 30-40 fps

on a 4070 super

[nocturne hill]

at 1080p? that seems low

[rare owl]

Rev Mal Gamma Defense Small : 0.0 HEALTH / 1.5k Will Not Die ! Still Glitching

[chilly bone]

more like 40-50 with dips into 30
my thoughts to but i cant get it to go up

[turbid burrow]

Is anyone elses ark just like NOT updating? I hit update, it says it's "Starting Download" for like 2 seconds and then goes back to "Update Queued"

[nocturne hill]

restart pc and steam to release any file locks or other weirdness

[turbid burrow]

didn't seem to do anything, gonna try clearing my download cache to see if that does anything tho
Nothing I do seems to work smh

[stray bluff]

how come i can't put the lost colony skins on behemoth tek gateway's but not the actual tek gate?

[dusk temple]

Does the gamma lost queen give you the skin for the tek spear or is that only from alpha. My skins are broke so I can't check if I got them or not

[plucky hazel]

Trying to leave a tribe where I'm the only person in it but it keeps making me rejoin it every time I relog. Anything I can do to fix this?

[sacred finch]

I’m getting a ctd when I try joining my rag map

[pearl yarrow]

Anyone having doe not farming any resources from lamps on lc and ext?

[round parcel]

Is there still no NPCs in city's in sp?

[eternal flicker]

What is the actual difference between the small defense outposts and the medium-large defense outposts?

[quaint lotus]

anyone know the spawn command for a cursed tek spear? tried converting the ones for the cursed tek armour with the tek spear spawn command but nothing worked

[rough quest]

anyone know how to fix lost colony maps not showing on the server finder

[terse portal]

Anyone have a fix for the crash you get when trying to access the creature tab in a terminal. I am on xbox.

[waxen python]

Are solwyns bugged can't get any to give vulpite the mini game just resets

[terse portal]

The loot table and amount of enemies.

[twilit topaz]

im tryng to play with friends, theyre on xbox (microsoft) im on steam (or PS5) . is there any way to play together on non dedicated? i cant get a real clear answer from anywhere else

[nocturne hill]

nondedicated is not crossplay

[twilit topaz]

ugh... i was hoping this wouldnt be the case. thanks, i may just cave and get a server then

[nocturne hill]

if your PC is not complete shit, just run a dedicated server

[twilit topaz]

how would i go about that

[nocturne hill]

download server from steam, make sure you can/have opened the required network ports, run server

this assumes you are installing on a remote device with steamcmd, not the actual steam client https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Dedicated_server_setup

otherwise, all you really need to do besides setting up the map and optionally config files is https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Dedicated_server_setup#Network

[craggy rock]

Our LC server crashed and when it came back up, it was day one no one has a tribe or bases and is pregnant with a reaper. What is the best course of action

[polar hull]

There is a bug with missions dropping 1 sigil

on official

[shrewd pond]

Anyone having cryopods not spawning tames after update?

Any fix for it?

[subtle glacier]

Rollback mate if you can

[subtle glacier]

Mines does it if its a double of another dino

[craggy rock]

I don't know how to rollback a server lol

[subtle glacier]

You on nitrado yea

[craggy rock]

No

[subtle glacier]

Ah OK I thought you may be

[craggy rock]

Xbox

[subtle glacier]

On official everything went?

[craggy rock]

Yea

[subtle glacier]

Ouch that will be a wildcard issue to fix then mate no good though

[craggy rock]

No but maybe they will let everyone keep the reaper babys

[shrewd pond]

I just transfered servers with the faulty crypods and on island was able to unpod the dinos

[subtle glacier]

Was it lost colony where they wouldn't

If so yea mine been the same brutal tbh needs fixed

[shrewd pond]

Astraeos, and now I transfered back to Astr and they don't unpod anymore.
PS. Just did another test, and the problem is with the dinos and not the pods... Which is weird since it's a pair or carchas I've been using to make drop in astraeos

[vocal phoenix]

does anyone know why dino’s are barely spawning in my game? in single player on the island btw

map feels so empty rn

[severe field]

the ossidon is now harder on custom servers because of the time being reduced on high taming mult settings

dont change the time needed for each round or actually increase it instead of reducing it

[unkempt glacier]

search yt type ark asa prevent hibernation on single play

[lament thunder]

how to i change view distance in xbox series s, cant find any settings related to that

[normal rivet]

Dont think thats possible on consoles

[maiden cypress]

anyone else having things disappear when you put it into storage? We podded almost all our dinos and put them in a cryofridge and they all disappeared instantly. Still gone this morning. we lost a ton of asc gear trying to take out of a vault and it just disappear and doesnt go into your inventory. Item is also gone form staorage...

official lost colony

[near narwhal]

if anyone is willing to help me fix my game ill send u 50$ ive been at it for the past 5 hours

[gilded yoke]

have you tried just stating your problem here?

[gilded yoke]

i bet this is a scam

[tribal tide]

I have tried respawning fast traveling relogging etc nothing worked for me I play on a private server with some friends and they didnt get it either so not sure what the problem is

[gilded yoke]

i heard its the "give default surivivor items" setting

cant say for sure, didnt test it myself

[maiden cypress]

almost 12 hrs after a patch that broke the game for half the players and nothing? what should the people do that lost so much of their stuff to it just disappearing? dont even dare to login on official weve lost so much just in the first hour after patch release

[cerulean bone]

This is wild

[tribal tide]

Same thing tried as well nothing ive found online so far or whathas been suggested worked, i also didnt unlock any of the holiday cosmetics either, i just got the items if thats soimehow related

[gray urchin]

my gloons are mating despite only one is active on mating

[gilded yoke]

yeah mating is buggy atm, everything is always "mate enabled"

[gray urchin]

even if the male isnt on it?

[gilded yoke]

yeah, gotta cryo your males atm to stop em from mating

[gray urchin]

ok thank you

and i thought i missed deactivting on my ossidons too

[gray urchin]

deactivate mating on the female did it for me

[gilded yoke]

oh good to know, lets see if it stays that way

[soft steppe]

Not sure if this bug has been picked up on, but now, Ambushing Strike is constantly active, so I just have 45% extra damage constantly

[normal rivet]

Make sure to pod ya males or others can come to ya base with females and steal ya male stats.

[shadow jetty]

Also happened to my Karkinos, som hours ago bunch of females and one male. Only females were on mating and male not, and suddenly paracer scared me with baby aleart lmao
Babies show the male as father that was even after that NOT on mating i checked like three times

More and more bugs to core functions now

[slate trout]

Whats arks problem? Juvenile des just died right in front of me while I was watching its food and everything. Blood packs still on it.

Death item cache is literally showing a ridiculous amount of blood packs still on him. I screenshotted it but theres obviously no way to get ahold of wildcard.

[distant mason]

hey can someone please help me?

i couldn´t acess the mods or servers

[ionic merlin]

Typical Wildcard release. Wait nearly a month with the main map features being barely functional then first major version patch drops. It doesn't address majority of the main issues and causes a bunch of problems for the rest of the game instead. 🤦‍♂️

[distant mason]

oh.. okay so, thank you!

[ionic merlin]

Sorry but not really giving us much to go on. You playing official , unofficial, single player? Is server search blank, mod page not showing or not downloading etc.

[silent radish]

Try to power cycle your system

[ionic merlin]

New patch is a complete train wreck so there's chance admins are choosing to shut servers down to prevent further damage until issues are fixed. I'm considering doing that myself tbh.

[distant mason]

The servers and mods tabs aren't working; it says I need to be logged in, but I checked and my name appears correctly in the upper left corner.

[silent radish]

If they are I'm assuming it's only certain ones because my server is running fine for now

[distant mason]

i play in a unofficial

[silent radish]

My Xbox does it too turn system completely off by holding the button on the system until it shuts down, count to 40 then turn system back on the same way.

[ionic merlin]

Yeah I'm currently testing issues that are being reported on here to see how badly mines affected.

[silent radish]

Fair

[distant mason]

I play on PC but through the Xbox app, bro.

[silent radish]

Turn PC off wait 40 seconds turn back on

Or try logging out of app and log back in

[distant mason]

I'll test it, I'll be right back.

[silent radish]

Kk

[ionic merlin]

That can sometimes happen if there's a new patch but even that's not the case restarting xbox usually fixes it like Nox mentioned.

[silent radish]

Apparently a PC user playing through Xbox app 🤷 I suggested restarting PC

[cursive ingot]

Are the rollbacks only happening in LC or on all maps?

[silent radish]

Val seems fine for now 🤷

[cursive ingot]

thx

[silent radish]

Np

[ionic merlin]

Yeah noticed the message when I posted mine lol. I don't have a pc so using my phone for discord. Makes me a bit slow at typing unfortunately.

[silent radish]

Yup I feel you I'm using phone for discord.

[ionic merlin]

Seriously can't wait for the Steam Machine to release so I can switch back to using steam for gaming.

[red wigeon]

Outpost missions aren’t spawning on Lost Colony 6304. I’ve played every day since launch and still haven’t ever seen one. A few tribes have them foundation blocked from what I hear

[distant mason]

It worked! Turning it off worked! Thank you so much!

[silent radish]

Np

Happy arking

[silent radish]

I bet

[mighty lichen]

When your trying to tame an ossidon what's it's taming effectiveness the second you get on it? And how many icicles for max

[silent radish]

If you find the foundations blocking spawns, take a photo of it showing the tribe name then open a ticket on survive the ark website

[ionic merlin]

You basically need to max icicles then bolus grabs to get max taming effectiveness iirc. Been a few weeks since I tamed my last one. Got unlucky and the good stats are on 3 different males and they are refusing to transfer. 🙁

You get dismounted on max bolus grabs so you want to work on it but always aim for getting the icicles done first.

[red wigeon]

Thanks! We’ve made one ticket already with pics so hope they see it soon.

[mighty lichen]

What's max icicles

Is it 50

[ionic merlin]

Sorry but its been to long since I've tamed one to remember the numbers. It probably varies depending on the tame level and server settings after latest patch. But it should tell you above your hotbar when you jump on one anyway.

[sage monolith]

We did an alpha defence a few days ago we got about 19 sigils. We did two back to back yesterday and only got 8 from each. Did they stealth nerf the sigils for defences?

[gray urchin]

are LC specific tames tested yet on other maps?

[sage monolith]

I think we weren't meant to get 20 sigils, I think it was always meant to be 10 sigils. They divide the 10 by the player count, so 10/4 = 2.5 each rounded down to 2 each. This therefore means you lose sigils unless you do the outpost with 1, 2, 5, or 10 players.

We did defences with 4 players, and every time everyone only got 2 sigils compared to a few days ago. We only need a few more sigils to summon the boss, but our tribe is very quickly losing interest, so and we struggle to 2-man the defence missions with the bronto (we ride a reaper on each side, but it's very close with the brontos weak spots).

[silent radish]

Good luck!!

[lament thunder]

but the render distance is very bad, it’s like in the aggro range of that dino, we can’t do anything?

[gilded yoke]

official?

[lament thunder]

yes

[gilded yoke]

render range on official is autmatically reduced to lessen server load on high player count. its servers-sided, nothing you can do

[nova sand]

@twin vale You need to provide better information for character restore i can't find your account

@fringe current Your EOS ID is not correct on the Character restore form so i can't find your account.
If you write whoami into the console and then paste it will paste it exactly as it should be so you can't make mistakes

[twin vale]

I don’t know how to do that

[gleaming peak]

anyone else having the issue of dinos mating even if you turned on off the male from being able to do so my tek giga are breeding even tho the male has mating turned off

[limber junco]

It’s a bug many people have at the moment, you need to turn off the females or cryo the male to prevent breeding

[gray urchin]

something is happening to sfx, its missing for no reason sometimes

happend at the backside of the crater

and babys dont count for Milestones tame 1 Ossidon

[ionic idol]

They are fine. But I won’t say the same for non LC Dino’s on lost colony

[mighty lichen]

If you get like all the dinos required for ossidon taming is that it or do you have to keep repeating it to get it's taming up

[verbal bloom]

on normal rates u need collect then number of dinos and icicles it asks, and repear that 4 times

[mighty lichen]

So it doesn't matter what level it's just 4 times

[verbal bloom]

now that they get affected by higher rates, u prob won't need to do it 4 times

[verbal bloom]

depending on the rates, yes

[mighty lichen]

Can you use sanguine elixir on them?

[verbal bloom]

yes

[mighty lichen]

Would that be good though? Because I think if I do that I'll collect less icicles which means less taming effectiveness or is that not how it works

[verbal bloom]

in stander rates, u only do 3 rounds instead of 4

[warm bluff]

if ya collect all the icicles from the first 3 round, ya can skip the forth round

[mighty lichen]

Oh aight

[mighty lichen]

Does that mean if your tryna tame one without elixir you don't need all icicles for all rounds

[warm bluff]

there's just enough leeway tob tame it at 100%

no, ya still need the icicles for the forth round

the taming effectiveness drops slightly after each round

[timber hull]

Anyone having issues where your female tames are still breeding with male turned off?

[warm bluff]

yes, a new bug brought to ya by the last update

Cryo your male for now

@mighty lichen I don't know why would ya want to tame an Ossidon before getting a Desmodus, the saddle for the later is unlocked at higher level than the former

[mighty lichen]

I got a desmodus

[warm bluff]

then always use the Sanguine Elixir

[mighty lichen]

I just wasn't sure how the taming effectiveness and the icicles worked basically

Thank you though

[warm bluff]

from what I understand, ya only need to collect all icicles on 3 out of the 4 rounds

the last one ya can just focus on getting creatures balled up

[mighty lichen]

That's only if I use sanguine though right?

[warm bluff]

without but ya will lose few levels

[mighty lichen]

Another question I have is if I ball all creatures up do I get kicked off or do I have time to get icicles

[warm bluff]

ya will get kicked out, yes

[mighty lichen]

Oh aight

[warm bluff]

icicles increases your taming effectiveness and the ball progresses your taming

I'm gonna attempt to tame a high level one later one and see how the new updates affects the taming

I'm on Taming Speed 3

[maiden cypress]

For anyone losing tames or items when placing in and out of storage - empty the entire conents out and pick up and re place structure down. You dont get back what you lost but it fixes it so you dont lose anything else

[mighty lichen]

Can ossidons use there mud ball on dodics

[warm bluff]

yes but not while they're balled up I think

[median shuttle]

can you use unclaimed creatures to tame ossidon or even tamed creatures

[warm bluff]

nope

they patched that a while ago

it has to be wild creatures

[neat gulch]

Anyone else having a problem with putting eggs in the Egg Incubator?

[warm bluff]

what's the issue 🤔

[warm bear]

Yes, they are one of the best creatures for helping taming them. Be careful using bat exilir when taming because it can finish the tame before you get full effectiveness. Personally I don't bother with it, its not needed. The changes they made to ossi taming quite a while ago mean they aren't that difficult. Every ride get all the icicles you need and get as many creatures as possible. A couple of doeds can be rolled up repeatedly and they are pretty tanky so can take it.

[vocal pilot]

How are females mating with eachother and we see tribe chats in global

[vocal pilot]

Yes, and when you hatch them they disappear 50/50

[neat gulch]

It's not even letting me put them into the Incubator.

[unique mesa]

Its 2026 . Apparantly females can breed with females and you dont remember jurrasic park? Life finds a way

[vocal pilot]

Only if Carly Sohandsome joins the squad

[mighty lichen]

As long as if I get all icicles it's fine tho right

[ashen scarab]

silly question do carts still fill trough even when offline ?

[verbal bloom]

Yes

[ashen scarab]

i was just reading online and ppl are saying it may look like it is but when u log in it auto fills but doesnt do it when offline , i assume they fixed that ?

[drowsy yoke]

It fills when it's rendered

[barren swan]

6001 been offline for 2 hours now. Happy Tuesday 🥲

[warm bluff]

a patch dropped

maybe what's why?

[rare stirrup]

Umm I want to start playing official today but I got a question

Is there a trading channel?

[jade aspen]

I love the title of this group

[agile canyon]

hey guys, Im stuck on the "regroup" phase of the LC boss fight and its not progressing. Is this a known thing, and/or is there a work around for this?

[weak nest]

Is anyone on console still crashing when trying to access any console or download/upload Dino’s?

[jade aspen]

@weak nest I switched to my pc my xbox crashes alot only because of series s. I know nothing about Playstation

Pc handles ark better than consoles sometimes

[weak nest]

I’m really just trying to understand the cause because my friends on PSN have no problem accessing the console and it lets me transfer items but whenever I attempt to transfer a Dino my game just freezes and crashes

[warm bear]

You can get a perfectly fine tame by just getting the icicles but if you want high effectiveness and the extra levels then you want both.

[wooden latch]

@nova sand hey any way to replace a reaper I lost due to a roll back when I was offline sleeping ?

[brave socket]

where can i send a crash dmp file to help get my dedicated server fixed?

[sonic violet]

hi ive got a question. my friends got a server via g portal but are all on steam and i got the game on epic games years ago, how do i join their server? ive tried anything with 00 at the end of the port, the old port, ive changed a setting in the epic games launcher (-crossplay) but nothing works...everytime i try to join their server it says connection failed, the gportal server also had every setting right with anticheat etc....

[mighty lichen]

whats the term "cluster" mean

[ionic granite]

servers connected with transfer, mostly have same settings and rates

[nova sand]

no sorry

[unique mesa]

Ase as far as i know is not crossplay. Peetty sure epic and pc couldnt play togather

[sonic violet]

i looked it up on google, it said it would be possible

[unique mesa]

Are you on same version as the server? Its only thing i can think of then. I have touched ase in some time so probably not best to help

[sonic violet]

yes

they installed a older version over steam

the same that epic had

[solar jolt]

From what I remember, they have special cross play servers, I don’t know if they would have to change settings to make it cross play or rent a special server for cross play but it is possible

[sonic violet]

he changed it to crossplay on g-portal

[solid pelican]

Is there any way to filter servers on ASA, from the Join Ark page by favorited servers? Just to where only favorited servers show up

[scenic crypt]

Had a quick question I lost my character due to roll back. I filled out the recovery character form and you guys were speedy quick and handled it but the character I got recovered was the wrong one they recovered a character that was not missing and on a separate server. So I was wondering do I fill out the same form again to get the right one recovered. The one I’m missing is a much higher lvl

[nova sand]

cziggyy?

[warm bluff]

try disabling Dino Download in your Single Player settings

[scenic crypt]

Sorry I was just wondering if I fill out a second recover character form if the first one recovered a wrong character.

[warm bluff]

favourited servers usually show up on the top of the list, no?

[nova sand]

try

[solid pelican]

Yes, but just was wondering if there was any way someone knew of like ASE to where only favorited servers are shown

[wooden latch]

Sad face 😞 I loose my reaper cause you guys cause a roll back

[nova sand]

You should be good now

[brisk river]

Game keeps closing itself when I open my inventory its getting ridiculous

[gray urchin]

NO they are not

[mental sparrow]

Right after I tamed an Aureliax my game crashed and I haven’t been able to play Lost Colony since.

[coarse jewel]

So i've done about 20 attack outpost by now and not received a single crimson sigil. I get the aberrant ones from the defense outpost every time but not one crimson sigil for the attack outposts... is this a common thing? Am i missing something?

[mental sparrow]

What attack outposts were they? The ones in the tundra didn’t give me any sigils but the ones in the city gave me enough for the boss.

[coarse jewel]

Ahhh ok i had no idea it mattered where they were. Figured an attack outpost was an attack outpost 🤷‍♂️ i'll try one in the city i guess. I also haven't had a single audio log yet either. From the outposts or from the skill tree missions. Any ideas on that one?

[tawdry hazel]

have they fixedd karkinos dropping ankys and getting stuck on them? i want to farm metal that way on abberation, but it was a nightmare to use with the bug where ankys would be dropped when they run into anything and it'd make the karkinos float on top of the anky so neither dino could move

[hardy kayak]

Anyone else get kicked right after completing a defence and then when the server comes back up (you've lost everything) and can't use cryopods.. meaning you can't cryo and leave 👀 happened to 3 of us today, two of us were tribed but the other person wasn't and it happened to them too

[mental sparrow]

You have to complete 3 skill tree sets to get an audio log and you have to do a defense to get a log.

[coarse jewel]

Yeah i've done 6 sets and about 30 defenses. Not got a single log lol

[mental sparrow]

Did you do the normal skill tree sets or the lost colony sets?

[coarse jewel]

The lost colony ones dude i shoulda had 2 audio logs by now

[normal rivet]

No fix for the breeding yet?
The most important thing that broke in the update and no fix. Id hate to be on official right now.

[mental sparrow]

Is anyone having the same problem as me? Right after I tamed an Aureliax my game crashed and I haven’t been able to play Lost Colony since.

[mighty lichen]

Does it just crash every time you try joining

You might have to use a back up save

[mental sparrow]

I can’t even load onto lost colony, the game crashes before I can even see my character.

[mighty lichen]

Tried backup save

[scenic hedge]

Fill me in on this - is it dinos not respecting whether breeding is turned off?

[verbal bloom]

indeed

[scenic hedge]

Thanks. Was seeing that on the dedi I play on and came here to confirm.

[gilded cosmos]

hello i filled out a character restoration just wanted to give you some back story my name is the same as my discord and i transferred to lost colony 6292 where the server crashed and my character was lost after i transferred from astreos 5980 official and i went ahead and made a new character for astreos will that affect my chances of getting my character back or will it go to lost colony or download? and it was lvl 150 and had all fights but ragnarok and lost colony bosses completed

[dusk flame]

Missions are broken with npc are falling off the bridges and cant complete them.

[placid sinew]

why won t bee hives spawn on the island I've been looking through the redwoods but didn t see a single one,i even got awesome spyglass so they should be highlighted

[normal rivet]

Apparently dinos that were neutered before the update can also be bred with. Ive seen it written multiple times of different discords, but cant confirm it.

[scenic hedge]

What the hell.

[faint ridge]

I have a question I’m moving base and theres a red Woods tree where I’m moving to so put everything on a Wood tree Platform and I was wondering things like ceyofridges storage boxes and vaults all stuff like this keep their normal decay timer I didn’t need to put them on a Foundation did I ?

[opal lion]

is anyone else having a problem using the terminals in lost colony?

[mild basalt]

Hello all, I am trying to install ASA on my Legion Go. None of the DLC maps work. I have installed all of them. Uninstalled and reinstalled. I can join the island fine. Lost Colony tells me it "hasn't been released yet." Tried installing through Xbox app and Microsoft store. Works on my desktop PC fine. Anyone able to offer a suggestion? I appreciate it!

[nimble gorge]

Why can't we stand on carts anymore?

[nocturne hill]

windows or linux?

afaik they ship with the latter now, and getting ms store stuff running on that is.. interesting, at best

[mild basalt]

It is Windows 11, sorry I forgot to mention that.

[spiral star]

ever since the new upadte my game runs at like .1 frames a second, was playing fine last week

[storm delta]

Whats the max amount of skill tree points you can have on official?

[verbal bloom]

120

[nocturne hill]

delete the config files to reset graphics options entirely

[spiral star]

how do i do that?

[nocturne hill]

delete \ARK Survival Ascended\ShooterGame\Saved\Config\Windows\

[spiral star]

it is still playing like a slideshow

[rancid bay]

ok who do i contact about dino being stuck in ground on official server 6264? tried pod tried whip tried whistle tried argy

[verbal bloom]

u don't

[rancid bay]

so its just gone then?

[verbal bloom]

yup

[spiral star]

it has been claimed by the earth

[rancid bay]

thats trash

[verbal bloom]

don't play official if u don't wan that to happen

[maiden cypress]

people are having success with dino leash if its not too far away

[rancid bay]

its sticking out of ground barely i will try that but not sure if its to close for it

[maiden cypress]

it should work then if its sticking out of ground, you have to leave render a couple times i think after you set the leash up and it pulls it out

[nocturne hill]

if your hardware was nowhere near capable of running the game at some point in the past, it still is and wont change

if that is hyperbolic, elaborate

[spiral star]

my computer is definitely able/should be running ark fine

[nocturne hill]

then it should run ark fine. details?

[spiral star]

i load in ark and its framerate is like 1 frame a second, idk what else to say

[maiden cypress]

what resolution and graphic settings?

[spiral star]

pretty much all set to low

[maiden cypress]

ya turn all settings to low then go to your video tab and set resolution down to like 1028 if its not already

[maiden cypress]

also is this a new issue or you played before and it was fine?

[nocturne hill]

maybe start by telling us anything, since we dont know what platform, hardware, or even specific game you are talking about, or any past context

[maiden cypress]

i see he says up there its since patch

[spiral star]

last week i was playin community servers an running fine, as soon as new pathc happne it became unplayable

[nocturne hill]

ok, that is a bit of info. can you join the same map in singleplayer without performance issues?

and what about other maps? no mods?

[spiral star]

Pc, Strong enough, Ascended, Last week run fine, Right now Not Work at all

[maiden cypress]

ya was thinking about mods possibly

[spiral star]

idk its freeze framing upon startup

and my game just randomly decies to function normally 🤷‍♂️

[snow cloud]

i fed my veilwyn the pristine vulpite and it disappeared but its not on the tracker its not at my base i just dont know where it is

[spiral star]

its suppose to have the solwyn jump out of a portal where the veilwyn was when u fed it

[snow cloud]

it did that but i had to drab crystal cause i didnt have enough to make the saddle

[ripe agate]

how do i find my non dedicated session server ip?

because i am having the issue where i try to join my friends non dedicated server on ark from the steam friend list and gives me the "unable to query server info for invite" Error anyone know what to do?

[alpine basin]

Somewhat new to the game. Can someone help me ? What stats would my megatheriums need for alpha brood? And then what stats for Rex for Megapithecus ?

[bright imp]

When trying to tame a gasbags it was taking very little damage, I don't remember is being this difficult, is there a method to the insanity? I wasted 200 arrows

[verbal bloom]

deflate it, use a owl or shoot head

[nocturne hill]

you dont, because they dont have a (sane, usable) IP due to being nondedicated

they have to be joined through the game, it is a peer to peer connection

[spiral star]

shoot it in the head

[keen prawn]

the wiki's map says in fjordur there is a massive hotspot for element shards in a cave below the swamp island, but i can't find the cave or the entrance, even in creative mode. where is the entrance ?

[verbal bloom]

element spawn in the ab cave and in the fire wyvern trench

[keen prawn]

i know about those, but still wanted to check out what im talking about. found it as soon as i sent the message. absolutely not worth it, exact same rocks as the ones in the aberration/amethyst cave

[verbal bloom]

oh i remenber

this https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Abyssal_Depths_(Fjordur)

[keen prawn]

exactly that

[brazen robin]

the wiki has the coords. (52.1/16.0) off the coast.

[keen prawn]

what even would be the point of going down there ? far more dangerous compared to the other element spawns

[brazen robin]

fun? having more nodes for servers

[verbal bloom]

dunk farming for those that want that

[molten falcon]

Two bags ive dropped have disappeared on death today, anyone else experiencing same?

[severe quarry]

anyone know if the devkit has been updated yet for the LC patch?

[mystic saffron]

Where these ticket answering mods at? Been a week since the last inquiry. Fairly unacceptable. Ik it’s not a reputable company and all. An tickets don’t have a pay to play feature otherwise they’d be all over it. But do better!!

Banning people cause your games broke is crazy work to begin with. Fix your game instead of banning the player base for your lack of attention to detail and need for corporate greed 🤢 🤢 🤢

An start Hard Banning these hackers instead of selling out for the rebuys and sales 🤢 💩
An they want us to buy Ark 2 😅🥲 been working on the same BS script for the last 10yrs still haven’t made it any better just new graphics and worse glitches and hacks. Wish Wildcard never sold out GG

[nocturne hill]

"dont ban people, wait, ban people more!"

next up: "i just cheat defensively"

[mystic saffron]

I don’t cheat at all 100% just use they’re bs build area that they never finished and rendered a “mesh” spot when you can walk right into the cave it’s been around since launch and here we are 3yrs later wanna hit a ban for it. GTFO here

But we can bed spawn and pelagormis into caves acceptably right ? Seems fair….

[nocturne hill]

so you cheat and try to rationalize it by demanding everyone else be banned more, got it. weird

[mystic saffron]

Cheat? Who

[nocturne hill]

maybe dont intentionally break the rules and then get upset when someone notices you did 🤷

[mystic saffron]

Never cheated been playing since 2015

[mystic saffron]

What rules?

[nocturne hill]

ok, maybe read the rules, or.. like.. you just admitted to it, so just dont play dumb

[mystic saffron]

Show me the rules and I’ll read them. Admit to what? Building in a cave that’s been around since launch

Wait there aren’t none cause it’s official and they reserve the right to ban regardless of proof. Wouldn’t want a little integrity and accountability that’d be asking to much 😴

I’d just rebuy if they proved me otherwise but it’s not that so it is what it is. The lack of care for the official community is disgraceful is all I’m getting at. My apologies @nocturne hill if I offended you. Have a goodnight

[nocturne hill]

yeah, there actually are, and insulting your own intelligence and trying to victimize yourself is just good for a round of popcorn

i dont think you are capable of offending anyone, either

[mystic saffron]

Where they located so I can educate myself?

[nocturne hill]

pretty easy to find the rules, since pretending ignorance is no defense, as you retroactively found. maybe give it a try

[mystic saffron]

I don’t mean to

[mystic saffron]

Who doesn’t like a good bucket of popcorn?

[mortal otter]

Yo guys, I'm stuck in a crash loop on Lost Colony (Small Tribes PvP) and I need help. It’s definitely a server-side issue, not my PC, as other maps work perfectly. Many areas (especially near the city) are causing instant disconnect from server...Terminals are broken too, so I can't even transfer out. I'm stuck in a login/crash loop. Anyone knows a workaround or if there's a server fix coming? Can't play at all.

[mystic saffron]

Yuh I don’t comprehend but thanks

Big help as I figured this would be 🤦‍♂️

Automated reply to the ticket inquire with no response in 6business days but also states don’t duplicate the submission so what now? Sit on thee ol hands and wait?

[mystic saffron]

An the only rules I see are for the community discord. None for official servers in which are the ones I seek. Instead of hey you can find them here I get quote on ignorance? Very Demure and insightful

[mystic saffron]

Id recommend having someone kill or move your character body. Sometimes they get stuck

As far as transfers not quite sure what they got going on with them. Ik they’ve stated they're actively working on it

[full coral]

Does single player on ps5 just not work anymore? Every map is crashing for the past few days, no mods installed either

[mystic saffron]

Might need to update files or reinstall

[mortal otter]

Is not stuck, if I move back like 2 foot step, I fix it but I can t transfer out becouse I crash near terminal. I tried with another character in another server and I have no problem. So I think is a server problem

[mystic saffron]

Id submitt a ticket inquire with the server Number. They may be unaware of it.

[mortal otter]

I did but I see after 10 minutes status with " solved " but is noooot

[mystic saffron]

Refreshed and realoded?

Helana dont like them embeds

[mortal otter]

I wanna cry, yes I did. I let u know guys if they fix it

[mystic saffron]

@nocturne hill you’ve been so helpful maybe you can help them.....

[mystic saffron]

Have you tried a different terminal by chance?

[mortal otter]

Work only on obelisk, but for it I need a flyer and in this moment with this bug is impossible to take becouse for sure I will crash

[mystic saffron]

So where are the official server rules located? If anyone could be of assistance it’d be much appreciated

[mystic saffron]

Understood seems like its gonna take a ticket submission and a mod to address this

[unborn crow]

Does anyone know how to fix the problem where I need to craft something but there’s not enough space to actually craft it

I have a to make a bary saddle but there’s not enough space in the smithy for the resources

[mystic saffron]

Back in ASE we used to use a beaver or even maybe an argentavis might work. A Replicator might also be a solution to this as it’s has a bigger storage.

[unborn crow]

I havent beat a boss yet but I’ll try a beaver or argie

[primal heath]

Another immortal malwyn stopped me from completing the only alpha outpost i have found today

[ionic idol]

Same on our server. Just watched 4 people show it stuck under the ground and then they failed the outpost

[mystic saffron]

Ouch sorry to hear

[storm delta]

Is a cryolophosaurus a good option for tranqing ossidons? Tired of having trouble with bows
