Surely just taking down all officials without any warning or an explanation is equally as bad optic wise

Maybe dumb question but what happens with eggs that where almost done and incubating dino's when servers went down i am new to ark 

 

Literally nothing happens, if the Server is offline it means that everything is turned off, including the game time which remains blocked at the last automatic save of the Server.

So (I underline this especially for all the capricious people who scream and cry) ----> nothing dies, no one grows or needs care... <---- at least until the Server comes back online and time starts moving again slide.

 

A note for you who are new: every now and then in these situations it can happen that, when the Server is restored, a "Rollback" occurs, that is, the time is brought back to the point of a previous data save, usually it is a few minutes but other sometimes it can go back several hours (if there were any weird glitches), so don't be surprised if that happens, it's part of the "troubleshooting" (at least according to WildCard)

Hey I just got the download and installed Ark scorched earth ascended… no servers are loading is that normal atm?

[Legion89]

Been waiting for an hour now, still no servers.

[kitaptozu369]

I've been waiting for long hours, but I haven't been able to join the new map yet. My character is in this new map. I also have pets in the transmitter, I think they will disappear if I cannot enter, they may disappear after 12 hours.

[weemac1986]

Official Modded servers ares still down and have been since the SE release....Never fails....can't do anything on time and when they do eventually roll out said update or patch, they break the game or the servers...

Iv been playing on the new scorched earth server on official EU 2262 but now when I try to load the server up it crashes my full game, this happens every time I try to load in. This server has my good character on it and now it feels like iv lost this with this issue. Please help here I really would like to get back on this !

Experiencing the same issue. PS5 client. 

[Joebl0w13]

Patch just released. Servers are probably updating.  

[DanDaPanda]

Fixed update on PlayStation and surprise surprise, no servers in official or unofficial list. Just like SE came out. Too busy worried about some trash animated series instead of fixing real issues with the game. Hell, haven’t even been proper patch notes in ages.

No. Everyone on pc and Xbox are still in server, no pending updates. No in game warnings. Nothing but devs not setting the right update time across all clients and servers. 

[UNHUNGH3RO51]

Still down I suppose

[TheWalkingLoki]

Does anyone have any information when the EU server 5376 will go online again or what is going on there. He's been offline for over 9 hours
