I really hope that the next post will be about the release date for consoles because its unfair for the console users only see others play the game pls wildcard no more delays and this the first time that you let me down and friends(they played ark on console to)

The one issue, that really sealed the deal, that I´m clearly never going to buy ASA, even if it´s on sale is the decision to give Nitrado a monolpoly on servers. 
I mean... aside from the fact that it´s still just upgraded normal Ark and the game itself lost it´s appeal. 
So wake me up when Ark 2 releases in maybe.. 10 years?

what? ....too optimistic? 

[Canni76]

What is wrong with servers numbers 4 slots from 70 and server are full ??

[Itch]

Relax the Nitrado exclusivity deal - let unofficials win game approval for you

[SHBRAVO]

    Hola muy buenas, me gustaría saber por que cunando entro a la búsqueda de servidores me expulsa a los 10 segundos aproximadamente si no que aparte de eso en ninguna parte ni en oficial ni en no oficial me sale ningún servidor. Apago el juego y sigue igual desde que compre el juego de nada mas salir hace apenas dos días. Todavía no he conseguido jugar y me parece la verdad una broma de mal gusto pagar por un juego 40 euros si ni siquiera puedo jugar a el. ALGUNA SOLUCION??

Jesus man... i was really hype about the release of Ark Asa but Console version are delayed and now i hear that i wont be able to make my own dedicated server like i did with Ark Ase because of some Nitrado bull***t so i wont be able to have fun with my friends unless i pay Nitrado to open a Private Server yeah F*** That i'm not buying the game... sux i was really exited to play Ark again

Nitrado explains the need right on their site.

These are just words intended to explain the desire to rob people. If this company was not a monopoly, we would have the opportunity to check whether other suppliers would have a "problem with increasing load" and whether these companies would increase prices twice compared to Nitrado

So why ask if you don't believe anything they say? 😆

[moaningmini]

Did anyone see the elephant in the room. They obviously haven't. We console players still hav nothing not even a thought in there head 😡

[Worstaimever]

Fix the damn servers and add more small tribes or some conquest so we can actually play the reptaring game that y'all just made us pay for again...

I wasnt asking. That was a rhetorical question resulting from outrage.

I am writing to express my heartfelt appreciation for the transparency and openness that you have demonstrated on the forums regarding the game's development challenges and the steps being taken to address them. It is truly commendable to witness your team's dedication to keeping the player community informed about the issues encountered, the fixes implemented, and the future plans for the game. Your willingness to openly discuss the game's progress and setbacks not only fosters trust but also strengthens the bond between the players and the development team. In an industry where transparency is often lacking, your approach stands out as a beacon of integrity. I believe I speak on behalf of many players when I say that we understand every game encounters challenges during development. What truly matters is the way developers handle these challenges and communicate with their player base. Your team's transparency instills confidence in us, the players, that you are actively working to make Ark Survival Ascended the best it can be. Thank you for your dedication, honesty, and hard work. Your efforts do not go unnoticed. We, the players, are grateful for the updates and insights you provide. Please continue to keep us informed about the game's progress, and rest assured that your commitment to transparency has won the respect and admiration of the entire community.

Either you are on the wrong forums and don't realize you are talking about wildcard, or you work for wildcard....or want to?   Because none of that made any sense unless its opposite day or something.

Im curious hows gonna hype will be when consone launch.

We have a very interesting situation. The entire XBOX Series X console is cheaper than a PC GPU card to make it work. If the XBOX version is playable, then say goodbye to PC... on the other hand, they can't make a poor XBOX performance, because that would be a huge failure.

[SCiENCE]

I can't play. It has been so rough getting kicked out of servers every half hour, having to start over because a server that went down didn't come back up, trying to get into servers is a disaster, there's just not enough of them.

Can anything be done?

They used that same excuse before.  But is it really necessary to triple the cost?  33 bucks a month is really steep, but thats how monopolies work I guess...

I don't believe so, no. I manage a very large server infrastructure in a managed services environment much like this. Adding RAM is pennies on the dollar compared to the total cost of the server lease from the data center. In short, doubling the RAM sure as hell doesn't double the cost of the server.

I hate to be the one to bring you back to reality here but the only thing that's been transparent is the fact that studio wildcard admitted that there are a boatload of problems that they are trying to fix that's it.

I appreciate your perspective on the situation. It's true that the developers have openly acknowledged the challenges they are facing with the game. While this might seem like a small step, in an industry where many companies choose to remain silent about their issues, this level of honesty can be considered a form of transparency. Of course, it's essential for the developers not just to admit problems but also to actively work on solving them. I believe the community is hopeful that this acknowledgment is a precursor to meaningful improvements in the game.

[razenvape]

Still no meaningful update for console? At this point just release the single player or something. It just feels crappy not having any information or ETA. I just want to play with dinosaurs dangit!

When is the Microsoft version ready to pre-order?

It won't be. When the time arives, the game will be made available on Xbox/Win10 version.

I understand that my perspective might seem unusual, but I assure you I don't work for Wildcard or have any affiliation with them. My intention is to acknowledge the developer's transparency in admitting the issues, even though they are just at the beginning stages of addressing them. I respect your viewpoint and understand that we might see this situation differently

Admitting the issues?  Transparency?  Really?   You want to know what transparency would have been?  How about not lying to everyone about the game releasing in october?  They knew from the start the game was never going to launch to pc and console in october even though they strait up said otherwise.   They knew there was no chance of it releasing by then, and they also knew about the loophole in the contract that would get them out of losing tons of money.  That is why they never gave a solid date and instead just gave a time frame.  Have you seen all the issues people are having playing right now?  Do you honestly think they didn't know about these issues when they sent it for certification?  They knew for a fact it was going to fail cert, that whole process was just a big show they were putting on.  They think like politicians, say whatever you have to to make people happy now and then ignore them and pretend everything it perfect when the truth comes out.  Kick the can down the road, deal with the fallout later.   That is how they have been from day one.  

   So originally they said this game would release in August, then pushed it to October, now its November.  The next few weeks we will get a lot of "transparency"  from them about how much progress they are making and how things are on track and doing great but without ever giving a release date, they wont make a peep about the date all the way until the end of November, then they come out and say they need more time to make the game perfect and bla bla bla and say Q1 2024!  Then you wont hear much until may or june, then they will finally give a release date sometime in late june.  Will they hit that date? probably not.  You know how I know all this?  Because its the past repeating itself and because they already know this is how its going to go, they just are not going to say it until they have to because they are super "transparent" and all...

  Now, would you like to talk about this super deal they struck with nitrado? The one they kept going on about how great it was?  Only it was only great for them. We are getting screwed over in that deal. sell the rights to one company, create a monopoly, make some quick cash, and we get bilked out of more money, unless you think tripling the price to us is fair?
