DeathwishChallenge Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 If I want my own server I HAVE to pay NITRADO and can't run my own dedicated server on my own equipment? Hard Pass. Hope you guys get your sh it together. This was a horrible idea, but thankfully it's execution was also a complete disaster.

Moretic Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 where is our dedicated server software so we can start our own servers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you believe that they will make it not crushable? If this will true and gen2 will not crush with new engine and "new" server technology, wow. But you are true. Those minority of players here just crying but tend to buy it asap. I wanna see them to develop same game. Lol. I will buy to play with old friend whenever first issue solved, you are right.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, pls update the game each time there is a UE version. Thanks A bit unrealistic m8. There will be always next generation so don't ask them to make more delays, crashes and bugs. Accept what they offer or don't play 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange that the original game and all expansions, along with ARK 2 have been confirmed for GamePass, but ASA is not? Definitely holding off on trying it out with all of the bad reviews it's getting until it comes to GamePass. It's not on gamepass Microsoft would of had in the trailer that showed at xbox event.

KingOfAshes Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 12 hours ago, Oreochema said: The creatures are one of the things I really hope get updates/improvements. The updated textures look pretty good, and the fur/feathers look better, too, but the older models/rigs feel out-of-place in such a lush environment. And this is okay with me, as I know the focus has been on improving the creature AI, the building system, the menus, and the character creation system. WC had to pick their battles, and rebuilding all those things from the ground up was a big battle. The existing dinos are fine as placeholders, but given their choices to do TLC passes in the past, I'd wager WC doesn't want the existing models to be there forever. I agree if they are placeholders indeed. It is a bit jarring to see that lovely environment and then seeing the creatures move so rigidly and wonkily on the terrain. Sure UE5 allowed them to remove the specular/normal files need for detail effects like skin folds and scales giving them a more natural look. But the whole artistic design of them was based on those limitations and some look miles better than others. Anything with prominent scales or hard shell/fur all over looks better (say scorpions ,crocks Dinotherium). Others not so much and sea creatures still look really bad. The thing is, Dinos are the centrepiece in ARK really, so they really do need a proper TLC to also make gameplay have a more lasting fresh feel to it.

Especially if after months of believing and hoping there were alot of positive changes coming, that there are in fact none, and nothing that we hoped would be fixed and or changed has happened. This is a big fat RIP for ASA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were in a raft and another guy phased his raft right through their walls. The hit reg also seems just as bad as ever. They had an argy trapped in their raft and you could clearly see them connecting with arrows but not getting hit markers. I'm actually astonished at how little WC has actually fixed from ASE. Yeah that's just sad. All these "changes" that were supposedly coming set the expecations high, especially my expectations. The main deciding factors as to whether id buy this game is that they fixed meshing, added really good collision to prevent pokers, meshing etc and the end of spam by adding very short decay timers for them. And judging by responses from you and others, its still the same as ASE. Not good at all. Really not good. I just wish I could tag and dev and ask them why? Because these things are really not okay. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nashiq Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 we knew the bugs would be there. we've come to accept them over almost a decade. what we didn't expect was private servers to be completely hosed. ya'll really f'ed up hard on that one. private servers were the bread and butter of ARK.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just good to know that PC players wanna have more lags. Lol. So stupid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vixhanna Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 In the meantime, can you do anything about all the land hogging on the steam version. I tried the servers today and there are pillers everywhere. I'm and many others are confined to rafts right now because we can't build small starter homes on the beaches. It's frustrating.

Could you take some screenshots and upload them so community members and the devs can see? It's an important issue that really needs to be put under the spotlight and addressed.

dodobowman Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 dear wildcard, Are we going to get any new servers if so is there an eta. this is an honest question I understand Nitrado has full control when it comes to servers. it seems like majority of server crashes could be prevented by opening some new servers to disperse the load. i'm sure you all are very aware that there are hundreds if not thousands in que constantly attempting to join servers. Â Thanks, dodo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CosmicSkeleton Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Ok now this is just hilarious. Why even bother to introduce crossplay at all if you knew somewhere along the line there was never going to be a same day release across platforms? It’s not like you lot didn’t know until the very last second that there would be troubles. Now your console consumer base will be more or less relegated to playing the console only servers because, as other people have pointed out, console players will do their damndest to deny the console consumer base access to anything. This is on top of having at the bare minimum a month’s head start since we all know the release date in November will turn into the release date in December. My heart goes out to the poor console playing fools that actually decided to jump over to ASA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enigma505 Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 I really like the new and improved Graphics ect however i hope you guys and gals are really going to address the issue of tribes already placing triangle tructures all over to stop people from trying to build anything in areas around them. Fyi im not talking just close to their base these structures span out in a huge area... Like i said i like the game been playing since ark first released Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moretic Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 so finnaly fixed the drm and etc etc... I have gotten my server up but it wont show up in the unofficial section.. Sad part is there are some german peeps actually finding it despite it not showing up in the ingame listing... Nitrado spies? what console command can I use to actually connect to it now when I had to pw restrict it ? I was using "open <ip>:<port>" to connect to it before but how do I attach the pw to the command line? I have tried open <ip>:<port>:<pw> open <ip>:<port> <pw> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
