StudioWildcard Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 Summer Bash Extension We realize some players were unable to take part in the beginning of Summer Bash and have extended our Summer Bash event an extra week. You have until July 21st to kick back and relax in the summer sun. Thank you for your patience as we worked through launch issues. Patch Notes Roundup It's been a few months since we've done the last patch notes round-up and much has been added. From the launch of Crystal Isles on PC to the introduction of ARK to the Epic Games Store, there's been much going on. With hundreds of additions, changes, or fixes, we figured it'd be good to kick off an ARK summer with a recap of the past few months.

If this command line is missing and -Multihome is specified, then EGS clients will attempt to connect to the Multihome IP Note that if you're using Multihome and specify a non-public IP address, then players will not be able to connect to your server using EGS.

Hakush Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 (edited) There's been some good bugfixes lately but Ember Wyvern spawns are broken on all crystal isles official PC servers (no idea about console) ever since the Summer Bash update last thursday. There used to be dozens up at the time, now there is 1-3 up at any given time. Their spawn points have been changed too (used to spawn under the floating isles as well as the fire forest, now only spawns in very specific locations in the fire forest in VERY limited numbers). It's been 8 days since they were broken, it'd be nice if it was fixed before event ends Also PLEASE let us rebind whisper and yell.

Cyberra Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 (edited) Can you please fix the tek trikes? I badly want to tame some event ones but they can't be taken off of Genesis. Corrupted Master Controller is not dropping his banner; I beat his ass twice, on gamma and alpha, so I earned that banner and have not gotten it either time.

WafflePancake Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 Will you guys please fix some dinos not spawning in Bog on Genesis for console. Sarcos, Kapros, Baryonyx, Spiders, Spinos, Piranhas and a host of other dinos don't spawn on the map like they're supposed to. No matter how many dino wipes are performed.

perseusl Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 Can you fix your version on Linux? I can't play many dlc like extinction, valguero, etc. I can only play the island and genesis after the update. It keeps redirecting m to download page though I already have them downloaded and installed already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAS Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 I vote for Tek Bridges and Tek Trikes issues above. Tek Bridges would be a nice addition to Tek Jumppads and Tek Sensors. Transfer issues are top priority in my personal subjective list of importance. Maybe the team would reconsider non-transferable status of Chalk Golems too. Also transferable trophies and element - you can craft everything on Extinction and just use dust to make fuel anyway. Trophies are called so for a reason - fighting and defeating a stronger creature is rewarded with a trophy. If the trophy was deserved is there really any difference what map you got it on?

Schwifty Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 - Argents can no longer pick up smaller wild aggressive creatures in PvE Uhhhh... so... which dinos? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greatchawhee Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 PVE not able to pick up small Dino's? What is this garbage? You have a dilo chasing you. Easy to pick it up and fly it away and drop it. Now you gonna force me to kill it. Come on wildcard. I understand PVP limitations, even if it is only to appease the cry babies. But PVE? WHY PLEASE INFORM US ON WHY a bird can't snatch up anything that could fit in it's claws. This shouldn't even be an issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChocolatePuffin9 Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 Still having issues with dinos/eggs falling from the sky at 50/50. Put in a ticket to wildcard only to get an automated response and have my ticket removed. come on wildcard. Your events lately are breaking everything! I vote no more events until October.

SnyperJim Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 #1 i'm not sure where to ask this but i am wondering if it is possible if the devs could add a cheat menu to single player with every cheat possible so that we don't need to look them up online and constantly keep typing them in. #2 It would be nice to be able to craft event skins even though an event is not on, surely some new clothes can be added for defeating a boss? #3 I believe chibis should be made available without events too, as this would make the game more fun #4 We need a structure saver, which has custom builds #5 Some new furniture would be nice? #6 An egg incubator would be cool, something that imprints and cryopods a dino after it hatches but at the cost of a certain amount of ele. This would be a great idea and help people who stay up all night losing sleep #7 A recipe book instead of pages? ..maybe have a book with missing pages which gets filled in as you collect pages? #8 The Upgrade Station mod should eventually be added into the game as it is a great idea and a realistic one. It would be nice to be able to upgrade items at a reasonable cost of resources and also make blueprints for a certain amount of element? #9 It would be cool if Helena told us how to tame instead of having to use dododex #10 A mindwipe for dinos? A mindwipe that resets manually added levels #11 Tether distance should be optional if inviting a friend from another console for non dedicated, i totally understand tether distance being restricted if two people are on one console. There should be an option to adjust the distance with a warning saying not to go over a tether distance with two people on one console. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taps allow you to drink out of it and put objects that can hold water in it to fill them. Putting a tap in the middle of a water pipe also helps water your crops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats why there are mods of single player, unofficial severs and Non dedicated server. Everything your asking for them would make the official servers BORING. I like the thrill of taming my own dinos NOT CHEATING everything in. Mindwipe for dinos? are you serious right now? Lord have mercy this is just plain laziness. There are mods that have a good share of everything you asked for.... Why bother playing when your basically asking for the game to play itself and you do nothing... New Furniture go play Prim+ Edited July 4, 2020 by ShellB916 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why bother playing when your basically asking for the game to play itself and you do nothing... New Furniture go play Prim+ I'm on console, i'm guessing you are on pc. The cheat menu on single player is already there, it's an option for those wanting to do so and all i am asking for is that players can click rather than typing a whole bunch of cheats in a text box and searching for them on the web. I like to play pve official but i like testing things in creative mode on single player and also just building. Some people like to breed for mutations, an egg hatcher and cryo station would be a great idea. The Upgrade station could be an item that is unlocked after defeating a boss. Yes a mindwipe for dinos, but not resetting to lvl 1 but the level before you leveled it up after taming or hatching. Tbh, it sounds like you are trying to have a go and get a reaction. Do you live in your mothers basement with no job? I could grind a bigger base than you could any day. I've played both pvp and pve, and Ark Survival never gets boring, especially when you love dinosaurs. My ideas can improve the game. Why do we have to use dododex when there could be in game calculations? ..we need an in-game dododex. Why do we need to look up cheats on the web? ..we need a better cheat menu. A structure saver could be an end game item after completing a boss. A recipe book would be cool. I've seen alot of people asking for the tether option to be brought back, i'm trying to bring change for all who want it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give the command showmyadminmanager a go. This brings up a window on PC where you can select the cheats you want to use. Of course you still need to type that first one in but after that you can use the manager that appears. I can't be certain whether it exists on console, but you could give it a try.
