Jemcrystal Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 The common voice of Rag383 has spoken. This is all my fault. Any server I try to play on will completely collapse cause conspiracy. Any conspiracy, just pick one. Look to BattleMetrics to see when server is back up instead of painfully logging in trying the server via the Ark interface. WHY DO YOU NOT LOVE ME ARK! https://www.battlemetrics.com/servers/ark/523763 And no for w/e reason Rag gets rolled backwards in time when it crashes like this. Sometimes we even get free crap in our inventory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibylla Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 22 minutes ago, Kati said: when the server crashes everything goes offline including the wild creatures correct? and then the server comes back at the same time from where it stopped? Occassionally it will come back at the same moment it dropped but more often then not there will be a slight rollback.. never know with rag honestly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoebeeeee Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Got eggs on the ground on extinction and my char is on rag383... all my eggs are already dead half an hour ago. Troughs were half empty when I left extinction and that was an hour ago. My juvenile dinos are going to die soon or already dead I think.... Thank you very much ark.

moondogelvis007 Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Took a dragon to Rag383 to get some milk for a dragon I'm raising on the island. Won't be able to get on tomorrow, so good chance I'll die and lose my stuff, plus lose both my dragons! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DetaChan Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 I'm sad to know that no one comes to the forum at least to give us some news. Not to say that they are trying to fix the problem. And in this we are missing out on the event. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DetaChan Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 I wanted to understand why it's just the problem. Does anyone on the team see that we are losing days and more days of event? This is very sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibylla Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 As the title states PC NA-PVE-Official-Ragnarok383 is down again, for whats going on 9 hrs now. I'm not sure what exactly is causing the server instability but this has been happening almost continuously for days. The server comes up, is semi playable for a few hours then drops off the face of the earth for extremely long periods of time. As it stands I am terrified to leave my base these days because who knows when you will drop, where you will drop or if you will get back in at a reasonable time. If you could please bring it back up we would all appreciate it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DetaChan Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 I agree Sibylla! Why are we missing out on the x2 and Easter events, because we're not getting to play. I can not talk to some people there on Twitter and they do not even respond to me. I'm changing, that way it does not work. I bought the game to have fun and not to pass anger.

DetaChan Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 I am very sad for being such a great game, It was the only game that re ally caught me ... And the developers neither come to give a satisfaction to us, thirsty to play. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nonamesallowed Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 Can any GM give us some attention?, lots of people loose a lot of things the last days, we could not enjoy the event and theres not a single explanation? like, for real? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jemcrystal Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 Okay using Battlemetrics I have made a quick chart of all the RAGNAROK servers in our 383 cluster group. Guys, 383-NA-PC might very well be the most unhealthy server in all of Ark. Sad because I really like that community. link in case pic to big to show up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XxxGodzxxX Posted April 27, 2019 Author Share Posted April 27, 2019 AND we're back to the server crashing and going offline. WHY will this not be addressed and fixed properly? instead of just rebooting the server? It's obviously hardware problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jemcrystal Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Yeah I feel bad all this time I thought Ragnarok was a crummy mess and the mod-dev not so with it. But I moved off 383 and now I can actually explore Rag it's a wonderful map and the mod-dev is a genius. It was the crappy server to blame. If they can't fix 383 it should be retired. Close down crappy servers and open up healthy ones in their place! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dowko9239 Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Well, Im bit tired of that as well, it's not just 383. Most servers get crashes, and getting crash during doing element vein or orbital drop is hilarious. Lost many items and dinos in pods because of these crashes. I will give best possible explanation why this is happening. This game is extremely badly designed, purely software wise. Graphics and 3D Models are stunning, really that's great work, but game itself, it's logic. It's just tragic, thoutghless coding. Really they didn't put much thought into design, all these issues could be non existent with better design plan. I will adrress couple most annoying issues: -Server save each 15minutes, well it is joke. Literally joke. Does Facebook or any other big website literally halts when doing backup? It does not. Is Ark really using sqllite and halting process to dump state or what? Do they heard of queueing? -Losing chars at transfer. It could be easily prevented with recovery mechanism by keeping last state of char and items inside of it. After all, these crashes - they know when they happen, it's literally quite easy fix and it would save them A LOT time recovering chars and items. -Collisions, it's really messed up and it's most annoying with element veins, half of time spent on doing vein is just snapping on it. It's easy fix too, at least for veins. -Overall lack of professionalism, really who does leave default server message as "blablabla", there is also some sort of bug, after each real message there is message with ".." or "...". There is also name of game, it is still "shootergame.exe" which is very very basic Unreal Engine template game. Really, who does that? It tells a lot about them. Either they literally don't care about this game and this was intended to be cash grab, fixing these issues won't bring them more money and literally, if people stop playing it over time, they won't need to pay for servers and managment of it. -Discovery of QA, I wonder if they even have such department. I guess not at all, they are like Creed from The Office tv show. Literally there is 50/50 chance their update breaks something, makes lots of crashes or even prevent server from starting. They could very simply solve that, by cloning image of some random servers and trying to dry-run it, well they for sure don't do it. There is more, but what's the point it's just my way of farewell. I really hope something changes, but it won't when they release similar game with the same issues or perhaps someone else picks up this idea and do it the right way. Good luck to anyone who still has patience to these issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
