Yup. That's a Tweet that's been posted a few times here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Changed VPN to Paris and the game works again for now. Nothing like a little VPN Whack-a-Mole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xenithar Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Another reason I am glad to run my own cluster. I shut all nine servers down when this crap started. I feel for you guys on official. WC should rollback every official server to the time that this started. I know some people may then have to stay up late for babies, but it is better than losing them at no fault of your own. Still down in North Carolina despite the outage map saying we are good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mastercat14 Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 So quick question if I were to say use a free VPN to run an unoffical server would I be able to then return to my normal region and save my data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digitlghost Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 CloudFlare has solved their issues. Validate your game files and try again. May still take some time to get back in. What would corrupt game files have to do with CloudFlare? Stop throwing darts at a problem board, grow up, do some work, and at LEAST give people an honest answer of what the problem is or your inability to find one. That's 19 years of tech support, application development, and network engineering talking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's 19 years of tech support, application development, and network engineering talking. Posts from people getting on after validating game files. That's people back and playing the game talking. Nobody is saying that is fixing anything. But it is what is getting some people back into the game. OMMV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MachoBearPandaSavage Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 I did nothing and I am back in. Either way I had to follow this mess of a thread to figure out my issues. With there was an official acknowledgement of an issue and a place to follow it in announcements rather than to hear about it from other users on a thread from 2016 or whenever this one was started.

FSDuke Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 So I ran a validation of my game files and it found that 2 files needed to be reacquired. Once this was done, I was able to the game menu without getting the JSON error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lizardfish Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 I'm back in the game, thanks Cloudflare team for the quick response to the problem I understand that some people are very cross at WC, I have no idea why, it was nothing to do with them. Things break, they take time to fix, nobody died, good job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrian030 Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Hello forum, I'm new here and have a problem since today.I've been playing ARK for almost 1500 hours and I've always been very satisfied.Since today I have the following error message: "Invalid Json Token. Line: 1 Ch: 1" and the game freezes.I haven't used another mod that I had used before with no problem. Unfortunately when I searched the netI couldn't find an up-to-date solution to this error. What can I do about this error? What information do you need?At first the error only occurred in-game after a short playing time, but now it already appears when starting the game.Thanks for your attention, I hope someone can help.Adrian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been playing for 5 years and have encountered many bugs, none that have stopped me playing though, it's called having patience and understanding that making something like Ark isn't easy. 11 minutes ago, Brexit said: Quick response lmfao what planet are you on. Earth. And yes it was quick, isolating and repairing a problem in a system as complicated as this takes time.
