I ain't bought the release (ASA) so cannot comment directly around the validity of this, but as it stands there seems not to be a "Server" Steam ID download, and further there seems not to be an option to "Launch Dedicated server" in the main game release. From comments in various places (mostly on Nitrado web site); It seems to be possible to run (for free) one server for each ASA game install that you have purchased. Therefore to run a cluster, you need to go buy ASA for each map that you want to host. Instead of being able to host what you like for anyone for free. For a guy that was already well skeptical on the merits of a re-mastered release of a game I currently have and play, I have to say that the chances of me buying this "fancy new" old ark has dropped to exactly 0% Sure and its early release - but stuff like this that goes out at release it not likely to alter over time? Bye Bye my $ to AsA! Perhaps your account should be renamed DirkNotInSA then. 🙃 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirkInSA Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Ha HaBefore you can review a game on Steam, you must first own the game. You can buy games by logging in through Steam’s website or installing Steam on your computer and launching the desktop app. So I cannot even go warn peeps on the steam platform without buying the stupid game. Bugger this is rapine and pillage unseen since roman times! @All you guys that actually bought into the Snail / WC money grab - PLEASE go post on Steam!!!!!

DirkInSA Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 (edited) "One application instance allowed per login" So how does one run more than one map on a single server???????????? I dunno that it is possible to login to steam on multiple accounts on one box ........ Edited October 26, 2023 by DirkInSA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly you know nothing about me to even say that... I have been running a cluster since 2016 in ASE, but I don't see what that has to do with what I said. I'm going to redo the configuration for ASM now that I have the app id's for everything and will report back when I have it working. I think people need to calm down, it hasn't even been out for 24 hours and they had a huge issue with official servers due to people becoming admins. Cut Wildcard a little slack.

Cool and good luck - without buying a copy of ASA for each map instance (sure and now there is only "The Island"), but PLEASE try and run 2 instances of that map - especially on 1 sever ....... and THEN report back.

The launch got delayed from August to October and they still managed to fail. I think it can be understandble why people are frustrated...
