How can you put this on Sony? You know the requirements for a game on their platform this isn’t your first time dealing with them so don’t try passing this off as their issue. If it’s a mod issue try using Bethesda techniques as fallout 4 and skyrym both have mods available. Try being truthful with your community and upfront with the details and quit trying to BS us with vague statements. You say you have to negotiate with Sony? As a person who works contracting this should have been done months ago.4 points

Doesn’t matter if it’s new servers pc players are the biggest cheaters in gaming history. Wayyyyyyyy more people cheat on pc then console. Pc players should be restricted to playing by themselves until gaming companies figure out a way to ban anyone instantly from loading in with cheat programs or messing with program files to get an upper hand on others in the game.3 points

Interesting comparisons, I couldn't have said it better myself. Would the price be too high for a baggy game? Nobody said it would be pretty, beautiful and wonderful. I was not impressed with this new candy packaging, it was known that Premiere ASA would never come out as expected. As mentioned, Sony certification always takes time, so you should report it in advance for certification to be published on time. (There are other multiplatform games on PS, where updates are available equally for everyone) only problems with the ASA code extend the SONY certification time. In fact, we have the same chocolate in the ASA packaging, but many of you have already abandoned us and we do not intend to return to the game. And I'll wait for the new chocolate when it's free. I'll just add it to the collection. For me, starting another annoying game with the same bugs (and they are also updated to UE5) is not an option. WC/SG treated ASE XBOX and PS players like rags. He had to release what he had for the PC even with errors to meet certain deadlines. The rest will remain the same, nothing will change and only because it's WC/SG and their unreliability. They have never lived up to their promises and will continue to do so. And my forum account should probably be deleted. There's nothing left for us here. ARK died for me forever, despite the time I devoted to the game with my wife. There is no point in being a member of this WC/SG community anymore, they have simply destroyed it. That's it. P.S. GP , can you delete my account from this forum? I didn't find this option on the profile.3 points

As far as i can see no one is winning with this situation. PC players are experiencing so many crashes, playing a game that is massively untested, and this is just in single player let alone online. So there is no way Sony were going to allow a broken game to be released as it has been on PC. I can't comment on Xbox as I have has PS products since the PS1 but Sony have always been very strict to unsure a game actually works somewhat. WIldcard should of known this, No one forced them to say they would all be released at the same time. They put this on themselves. After the Nitrado loan they could of done themselves a favour and said that it was unlikely that all platforms would be released the same time knowing a huge deadline loomed and that it was unlikely it would pass cert on console. This all falls on Snail games and Wildcard management who run about like headless dodo's because they can't manage a game launch or their money. Launching a trailer on Xbox partners thing, then announcing it will be released on steam later that day and that consoles will be delayed is a perfect example of headless dodo's, Surely info should be reported by one means first, like a hub, like official website or survivetheark.com then filters down through x (twitter), discord etc Unfortunately the result is the the amazing art/design team at Wildcard who have not only created an amazing trailer but a great graphics upgrade from ASE but the community is presented with a huge Sh*t sandwich, regardless of platform, which we are all having to bite.3 points

What a whirlwind of a week it's been for both our team and all of you. We've ridden the exhilarating highs of ASA's PC release, watching it claim the top spot on the Steam charts, and we've ridden the rollercoaster of post-launch LiveOps with its share of hitches and victories. On the flip side, there's no denying the disappointment accompanying the delay of ASA's console launch. We felt it, too. Let’s get straight into the console news: Xbox Series X/S and Windows: We’re on track for a November 14th (Tuesday) launch day! As we get closer to the launch, we’ll share more information on precisely when it should be available for you to download. The Xbox version will be up-to-spec with the latest PC functionality as of Nov 14, and will launch directly into crossplay with the PC version (along with new servers, including Xbox-only servers). Playstation: We’re hoping to have a more precise date to share with you soon as we’re currently finalizing this with Sony, but it is slated for the end of November. We know this isn’t ideal, but we’re optimistic we’ll be able to share a date very soon! Following the PC launch and the information and data we’ve gathered, we’ve decided to make some changes to our plans for the console launch. Here’s how everything is going to shake up: Xbox Launch Cross-platform with Steam will be enabled Day One. We’ll be onlining a new set of Official Servers for the respective game modes (PVP, PVE, and Small Tribes). These servers will be running boosted rates for a period of time to allow players starting on them to catch up. Our hope is to synchronize the rates by mid-December. We’ll also be onlining our first set of console-specific servers at this moment so that players who do not want to play on crossplay can play on those PlayStation Launch Cross-platform with Steam and Xbox will be enabled Day One We’ll be onlining another new set of Official Servers for the respective game modes (PVP, PVE, and Small Tribes). These servers will be running with even higher boosted rates for a period of time to allow players starting on them to catch up. Our hope is to synchronize the rates by mid-December. We’ll also be onlining an additional set of console-specific servers with higher rates that will get synchronized by mid-December Of course, there have been a few bumps along the way, and we're working hard to address any issues that players are reporting. We’ve put out a record number of patches this week, but the patches can be summarized as Bug fixes: We've fixed a number of bugs, including server crashes, dino spawn issues, and mesh exploits. Performance improvements: We've made a number of performance improvements, including optimizing the dynamic navmesh system, server code (80%+ reduction in out-of-memory issues), and foliage. We're also pleased to announce that we've significantly reduced server RAM usage. This should improve the player experience and help make servers more accessible for everyone Security improvements: We've added client-side protections to prevent players from listing unofficial servers as fake officials, and we've fixed a number of exploits. For detailed patch notes visit this page. We know there is still plenty more work to be done on all of those fronts, but we're committed to making ARK: Survival Ascended the best survival game it can be. We'll continue to release patches with bug fixes and performance improvements in the coming days, along with major feature additions over the coming weeks (and introducing Public Test Realm next week – more on that soon). In the meantime, thank you for your support and patience. We hope you're enjoying ARK: Survival Ascended so far! It is with a heavy heart that we announce the delay of Extralife 2023 from November 4th to December 2nd. We know this is late notice, and we apologize for any inconvenience it may cause to our ExtraLife team members and those who join the stream to engage with us every year. If you’d still like to stream on Game Day, we more than encourage you to do so and we’d be happy to provide support. Also, if you want to wait for our stream day, that works too 🙂 This decision was not made lightly, as we have participated in ExtraLife’s “Game Day” event for 6 years. Extralife is not only a day where we come together to raise money for children in need, but it’s also a day that we cherish because we get to hang out with the ARK community. We want to make sure that the event is a success for all of our participants, donors, and sponsors, and we believe that moving the date is necessary to ensure that we can hit the mark. That also means we need to make sure that as many ARK players as possible can take part and because of the console delay, we need to push back the date. Extralife is one of our favorite events of the year, and we love seeing the community come together to raise money for such a worthy cause. We can’t wait to run it with you in a few weeks! Thank you for your understanding and support. We look forward to seeing you on December 2nd for Extralife 2023!

I can not believe people are blaming Sony. They have always been tough on games they don't allow 90% of the poop that's on steam or Xbox and I'm glad for it. The game is total garbage ASE is a pile of buggy poop on the console and ASA is also a buggy pile of poop and it's down to Wildcard they made it, they are the developers. I can guarantee we will not get this game until 2024 the same as when we got ASE over a year later on PS4.2 points

I was thinking of this as well, boosted rates is just a band aid to try to get the PS5 players up to speed. But its the in game know how. I'm sure it's like ASE but with new features that us ps5 players best case scenario will learn only from the other platform streamers. Honestly don't get me wrong it's a disappointment to us PS5 players to always come last, but I guess that's what happens when games are easily designed on PC and their Xbox partnership. But I would've been more surprised if PS5 came out along with Xbox. Wildcards track record with on time releases is ridiculous.2 points

Hi, The news today has been disappointing for PS5 users and there are just a lot of things unclear. Can we use this topic to get some answers from the devs maybe? Roughly 65% of the next gen consoles are PS5 players based on sold consoles. So I think it is fair to say that 65% of console players are still waiting for some clarity surrounding a possible release date. I don’t want to turn this into a console war topic so to all readers, please refrain from this. I’ve seen comments about having to buy an xbox etc, but when all your friends play on the other platform, it’s just not possible or shouldn’t be a discussion even. Having said that, there are a lot of rumors rising in the community. Some say it has to do with mods on the PS network, others say it’s because of PSN governance and processes, others say issues on the PlayStation version aren’t resolved yet. Nothing is stated in the update of today other than WC is discussing with Sony for a end of November release. I hope we can get some clarity about these rumors. Right now there is a huge backlash pointed towards WC and i think some answers and clarity can turn that around. Thank you1 point

What about an announcement regarding enforcement action on the dupers of official servers, or still hoping we go quietly to unofficial so console will still buy the game and you wont have to enforce the official servers? I'll keep asking on discord until my tribe stops asking me or any good unoffi servers release, game is still great but hope you get sued for false advertisement. "Making hackers cry as they lay in bed alone, with their parents disappointed in them" in community crunch message was rough gaslighting of legit players if you refuse to do anything about it.1 point

Same, pillar and foundation spam is everywhere. Pillars have changed a little, you now need 2 with a ladder... On most official servers you dont have long to 'claim' a spot, although with lower rates it takes a little longer until the entire map is covered.1 point

Some games do just fine with crossplay (Chivalry, path of titans, warframe). The problem is that the very territorial and competitive nature of ark is so innately hostile to any sort of late start that crossplay ONLY works at any decent capacity when everyone starts on an even ground. Players new to ark as a whole are already at a massive disadvantage compared to long time players, now those that are new and aren’t on Pc are at a bigger disadvantage and those that are on PlayStation even moreso.1 point

I doubt these comments are read, but can we get Hardcore Official server(s) for console and cross play, please? Thanks!1 point

Can we also please get ODP / Offline Damage Prevention turned back on Official PVE Servers as well please? Like we had on Official/Legacy ASE Servers? People are getting their work wiped by players kiting Titans to peoples bases, and reporting them isn't working even though they are breaking pve tos.

I feel you, my PlayStation brothers and sisters. Though our consoles are different I'll stand in solidarity with you guys. I'm not touching the game until it's out on all platforms. My kids and I have waited this long, what's a few more weeks. At least we've still got ASE right?1 point

why can ps5 at least not get to buy and dl game and play in single player? why could xbox not be delyaed so as to at least keep promise to launch both same time? we got pals on xbox still gonna have to wait for us on ps5 The way your crunch reads, crossplay servers will already be pillared to heck by the time ps5 gets released, so nowhere to build and a month behind..1 point

Trash, how much is Xbox lining those pockets. Should have just waited and released both at the same time.

As much as soon can be. so playstation get two days to prep for extra life so no point then only get two weeks of bonus rates if you haven't lied so much a d gave us soon so much I wouldnt be so angry that I've now decided that I won't even bother as I'll be so far behind on cross play.

More Ornithopods and Ankylosaurids. I had this one idea for a while, but I never shared it. Baically, for Ark 2, push Trike into a mid-game tank niche, and push Para and Iggy into the early-game tank niche of Trike, and fill the gap that Para and Iggy left behind with Camptosaurus and Denontosaurus respectively. And uuh, Hungarosaurus because yes.1 point

As a player since EA and someone who focuses on breeding with the lack of Cryopods and being a full time employee with real world responsibilities your really going to kill the game for people like myself. Cryopods were the largest quality of life change for people who actually had some sort of life outside of Ark and once again you will be putting players who can average 14-16 hours a day ahead only because they can log in and put meat in a inventory not because they have any form of skill over another player or have any sort of level of achievement they have progressed to.1 point
