Amalya Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Hey I uploaded my char from Iseland earlier and wanted to go to Genesis. When downloading, I was told that the transfer failed. Now, strangely, both chars have disappeared. No matter which map I try, I should create a new char. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloodredhavoc Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 I lost my 117 character last week and got told they can’t give me back my original character can’t ascend my character and that I have lost all games and can’t be returned . So I now have to wait a month for a GM to meet me on my island server to give me back exp to get me to lvl 105 ... This game fault for characters missing and instead of helping you they penalise you and don’t give you your stuff back .. Do a ticket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vilue Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 (edited) Hi this has happened to me twice now, they can give you back leadership and your imprints ( just make sure to tell them you need it done) and make sure they are not in pods. Time wise it can be two weeks or a month depending on how busy the GMs are. So I really hope you have tribe mates that can re invite you to the tribe while you wait. If you are solo your out of luck, best thing you can do in that case is to hope you most of your tames are podded up and wait till you can destroy the foundation the fridge is on to collect what you can and rebuild.

nameless Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 (edited) a topic to alert players of dangerous bugs and glitches If I didn't see this topic and started the ascension, then things may have ended up very badly for me: I don't think every player know characters can be lost. If they do, then they probably didn't expect character can be lost even if you are not transferring. Now that I knows I should not start genesis ascension, is there anything else that I should watch out for? updated 05/08/ 2020, currently known: genesis: potential mission loss (reason unknown) giga destruction when being teleported with hlna when riding the astrocetus, do not double teleport, or else you go to 50,50 on map and then it kills you and the whale.

Now that I knows I should not start genesis ascension, is there anything else that I should watch out for? They released a patch for that, that day. There are some bugs yet with Ascension but that particular one was fixed quickly and I know many people that have Ascended through Overseer, Rockwell, King Titan, and Master Controller since that patch with no issues but it does upload your character like a server transfer so the risk is always there.

nameless Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 that is good to hear, have they ever improved character restoration? (as far as I know, nothing other than 100 levels and imprints are returned upon character loss) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yekrucifixion187 Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Just now, nameless said: that is good to hear, have they ever improved character restoration? (as far as I know, nothing other than 100 levels and imprints are returned upon character loss) They can give you boss engrams for Island and SE with proof on implant. They can give you full levels with proof on implant and Ascensions run again prior to appointment (so if you were 133 and ran Overseer and Rockwell again prior to meeting they could give you 133 levels). They do not ascend. They claim they can't despite the command existing for single player and unofficial admins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gogz Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 (edited) Lost my level 107 PVE character last night while transferring servers. Gutted. Not looking good for my imprints and base. 007 failure: failed to download transferred character. If you have not done so already, you should take a screenshot of your specimen implant. I forgot to do it and I doubt I'll get my tekgrams back. Edited May 7, 2020 by gogz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrumpyBear Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Always keep a latest copy of your implant pulled from one of ur bodies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got multiple responses to my ticket within 2 days, not the result I hoped for though. By the time I can get a meeting with a GM, my base and dinos will have auto decayed. Silver lining is some of my base was pincoded, so I managed to get some tames back from a cryofrigde. I'm settting up camp there for the next 2 weeks to try and grab all my important stuff when my base despawns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penguinthumbs Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Lost Character So I was on the Center 29 smalltribes and the game did an update and when returning to the map my character was not there and I was unable to download him either. I have put a request to the Ark support team and received an email saying its not there problem and they are unable to deal with the issue. My question is how do I get my survivor back i've put a lot of hours in and starting again is not an option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nnciotta Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 (edited) anyone had "Character lost" after last patch ? (CrossArk6) I'm opening this topic to try to condense all the "char lost" after last patch. Our cluster is "CrossArk6" We play on EU-PVP-NoTek-TheIsland-CrossArk6 WHAT I SUPPOSE HAPPENED: After patch something went wrong and servers were rolled back in time. So if you didn't transfer in the hour (or roll back time) you just lost like me some structures you just built prior/after patch. BUT if you transferred (from AB to Island or from RAG to Island) something went badly wrong. People from friend tribes said (and i saw some posts about that too) logged back to Island (where they traveled before logging off) and found no character. They checked also in the place they were coming form..still no char. i was lucky because i was breeding so i just lost just some baby tames...but my other tribe friends that traveled (ex: from AB to Island or from RAG to Island) it seems they lost their characters and stuff they had on. IF you are in same condition and solved the problem...what exactly did you do ? Please guys if same problem as many of us report here...and open a thicket for supporthttps://support.survivetheark.com/hc/en-us/requests/new I believe proper request is the INGAME-ISSUES >> CHARACTER LOST, describe to devs exactly what happened and what you were doing near the PATCH deployment. Devs please can you clarify / support these people ? @Cedric I received many complaints from many friend tribes. Thanks for the time you can dedicate to solve this big issue ppl is facing now.

GrumpyBear Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 (edited) I'm told, when riding the astrocetus, do not double teleport, or else you go to 50,50 on map and then it kills you and the whale. Oh, and don't use genesis teleport w/ a giga out , it will mesh and destroy the giga. Edited May 18, 2020 by GrumpyBear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most things don’t affect me . There’s so many horror stories on forums , I thank my lucky stars I’ve not been affected . I play official pve. Since ark hit console pre launch and still have my original character . I can travel server to server all day long . No issues. Whilst knowing of a problem affecting someone on ark , doesnt always necessarily mean it’s going to affect everyone. The game would be unplayable if you applied every issue , everyone was having . Problem with ark is you take your characters life into your own hands every time you play and everything connected to it. Must say that twitter and this forum is invaluable to us players .
