TimeBomb2003 Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 I don't normally do this, but I also had it. I was just playing some today when all of a sudden the json error appeared, and when I clicked ok, my game crashed. Now whenever I start the game, as soon as it gets to the main menu, the error appears, followed up with a crash when clicking ok. Although, it doesn't happen when I disconnect my PC from the internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalextm Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 As a temporary solution they can download TouchVPN for free from the Windows store, run it and open Ark (they will get a steam connection error, close and reopen), and with this they can enter with some lag but enough to save babies.

Makes me miss the old days of LAN gaming when you could carry on as usual as long as you had power and caffeine. Man don't get me started. It's like when Xbox live goes down you can't even play most games that don't even have an online presence, can't watch TV on something like YouTubeTv, hell you can't even get to your own personally hosted Plex server (sitting in your house) because the Plex app can't authenticate to Xbox Live. What a mess. Miss the old days of just putting in the CD and go... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Es obvio que algo está pasando con Wildcards NETWORK .... Dios mío ... ¿tengo que golpearte con un tablero para que realmente leas lo que escribió ???? Está sucediendo en varias PC. TODAS las PC de la red en las que se encuentra se verán afectadas. Sucede tanto con STEAM como con EPIC LAUNCHER. Ciclar su IP temporalmente SOLUCIONA el problema. Quiero decir, realmente vas a decir "Oye, mira, alguien encontró una solución temporal, el comodín no necesita molestarse en asegurarse de que sus cosas funcionen correctamente" ... * sacude la cabeza * Debería esperar esto de ti Joe ... .. especialmente a estas alturas .... barremos tantos problemas debajo de la alfombra y arrojemos cualquier solución temporal para que podamos ignorar el problema.

Platipus Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 +1 on this issue Was able to play earlier today (around 11am US Central) and now can't (started about 1:30pm US central).Is now just before 3pm US central. a .json is just a data file, similar to an .xml file. In and of itself, an Invalid token would indicate that something wrote an unexpected character to the file, and now it can't be parsed. Weird that people are saying a VPN or disabling networking can fix the issue. Hoping wildcard gets this fixed, I do not want to have to reinstall all 250 bajillion megs of this game, again, for the umpeenth time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volunteer Moderator Joebl0w13 Posted November 2, 2020 Volunteer Moderator Share Posted November 2, 2020 Just now, Platipus said: and now it can't be parsed You can get the same type of error if the file is not found, hence why it can't be parsed. And that can come from a network issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonstrous Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Also awaiting the time when I can load Ark without JSON stopping me. I'd even just play on my local system. STOP HAVING IT BE CLOSED. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dalextm Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 20 minutes ago, Platipus said: +1 en este tema Pude jugar más temprano hoy (alrededor de las 11 a. M. Hora central de EE. UU.) Y ahora no puede (comenzó alrededor de la 1:30 p. M. Central de EE. UU.). un .json es solo un archivo de datos, similar a un archivo .xml. En sí mismo, un token no válido indicaría que algo escribió un carácter inesperado en el archivo, y ahora no se puede analizar. Es extraño que la gente diga que una VPN o la desactivación de la red pueden solucionar el problema. Con la esperanza de que el comodín solucione esto, no quiero tener que reinstalar los 250 millones de megas de este juego, nuevamente, por enésima vez. It's weird, but it works and is the important thing until the error is fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes sense. Since CloudFlare is only having a problem with a region of their network. The VPN is allowing you to access a different region. One that is working and can deliver the file the app is looking for. You can read more about the actual cause of the issue here.

Xenithar Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 2 hours ago, Joebl0w13 said: Most all internet traffic goes through CloudFlare or other competing CDNs (CloudFront, Fastly, Google Cloud". Read me post. I said I could unplug my cable modem and keep going LAN-wise. I have internal DHCP, DNS, LDAP, and more. I have an actual Xeon server (dual Xeons, 256GB ECC RAM, RAID10) I use for Ark, 7 Days, and a few more. If I am unplugged from the WAN I cannot go to Cloudflare. This brings up the question as to why I need to hit Cloudflare to play a damn game offline? Also, still getting this if I go online. Why can I do absolutley nothing without a damn connection to Cloudflare? What if I want to play single player? This is what KILLED Silent Hunter 5, the need for an online connection to play a single player game! It's just plain stupid! If this damn connection fails then load the game and try later!

Kickaha Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 i totally agree with that, it's a shame to not be able to play a game even offline, while you paid for it the cloud show its limits when gaming is involved .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackScarlatta Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Ok, i have this dam issue since 1 hour ago... its getting every more dissapointed about WildCard and all this fix that are made with bubblegum and duct tape. If not is this crash is another one that is FATAL ERROR... or been kicked from server but your dam body is still in the server... or when wour are playing and the dupers still crash the server and kicked you out... or when dupers till lag the server so you still rubberbanding constantly... ITS ALL THEIR DAM FAULT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
