  4. We're going live with the latest content. However, Official Servers are going to remain offline until we have resolved an issue that prevents players from being able to transfer specifically on servers where Character Downloads are enabled, but Item Downloads are disabled. We recommend Unofficial servers that are using the same setup wait for the new server as well. Our currently ETA is approximately 1.5 hours~.

  6. Bro why did you even bring it forward to the 31st. You could’ve just kept it at the 1st and it would’ve been fine speaks further volumes about the incompetence of the management/public relations teams at wildcard

  8. Okay, so, in comparison to previous weeks, this was "marginally" better. But I do mean marginally better. There is still a severe lack of transparency here, and before all you lug-heads start throwin out "March 31st," for just a moment stop yourselves and let's take account of how many dates they've already buggered up and missed. We're at a point where until some of us see a REAL commitment to transparency for the content we've ALREADY PAID FOR, you can expect that we are not going to just believe what they say. Or did none of you ever read the story of The Boy Who Cried Wolf? Scorched Earth - Dec 2023, then March 2024, then April 1st, and now they say March 31st, shah, okay The Center - May 2024, then end of Feb, now, Who the hell even knows What we've seen is a dedication to pushing microtransactions and other ilk, that none of us asked for or paid for. If they get SE out on March 31st or even April 1st, yes, I will be pleasantly surprised and will be spinning up a server for my community. That being said, you are a fool if you just blindly believe a thing WC says with no evidence to support their statement other than rendered "art" that features nothing but microtransaction content and Pay 2 Win content. You want people to not make posts about "where's SE?" Yah? Then back those people up and demand for full transparency. Demand that WC show it. Let us see it. Screenshots. In-Game Video. Content that showcases what we have already PAID for, technically twice, if you bought everything in SE. Stop giving in to your Saviour complex and take stock of the fact that you PAID for a FULL GAME and as of yet, you've received NOTHING that you PAID for, just like all the rest of us. And, hey man, it's cool honey bunny if you think it's copacetic waiting till whenever for the content you paid for, but keep in mind, many of us, yah, we are NOT cool with it. So please, just go sit back down in your booth and have a nice tall milkshake.

  9. Stop whining. If you experienced ASE in it Infancy then you knew what to expect. The problem is this game is so good people want to play it bug free. Second problem is people are spoiled and want it NOW NOW NOW instead of being patient. You still log in, and if you don't play then stay off the forum. Ark is still the best Dino/survival game there is period.

  10. 5.1.0.0 now available to download: https://drive.google.com/file/d/14s3lHSREisSdkLoY4Ng6cALcmld1aTz4/view?usp=drive_link https://github.com/miragedmuk/ASV/releases/ Changes Reviewed how I read/write timestamps following start of BST causing my own local files to be 2 hours different to the times on my ftp server. Added support for Scorched Earth Ascended but still work to be done to reveal Oasisaurs. .. and possibly Wyvern nests/eggs. ..edit.. Wyvern nests are already available. Eggs - I'm gonna need some time to work on the code. Essentially instead of just having the one dropped item with a "DroppedBy" revealing the wyvern parents we now have more steps to go through: DroppedItemGeneric_FertilizedEgg_NoPhysicsWyvern_C - contains the location and a reference to the actual egg via a "MyItem" property. PrimalItemConsumable_Egg_Wyvern_Fertilized_Lightning_C - is the actual egg - but that contains no location data. I need to get the object reference from the generic, find that object in the game data then get the "CustomDescription" to match what was displayed previously. I don't have much time this evening but should have it completed - along with reading in the Oasisaurs - by the weekend. .. edit 2.. Got the eggs!!.. now to try work out Oasisaurs. .. edit 3 .. Oasisaur might take me some time. Turns out there are new property types I'm not handling so not reading in all the properties I'm expecting to see for ASV as I bail when it comes to properties types I've not handled.

  14. Hey folks at Wild Card. Terrible job, once again, when it comes to rolling out your product. Not sure whose in charge of planning and deployment involving releases or in ordering the correct number of official servers, but they apparently need to be reassigned or let going because given my customer experience with Ark Ascended and the lack of official servers to play on as a paid customer and a game pass subscriber, not ensuring that those of us who purchased your game and play it by investing real life hours definitely shows what Wild Card thinks of its loyal based vs. people who will try the game out for free, then ditch it because it’s “flavor of the week” on game pass is over. I can not begin to express to you the disappointment and frustration of myself and other players who voiced their frustrations and disappointment in Discord over not being able to get on to an official server on launch day after buying ASA months ago and then paying the $30 for Bob Tall Tale content only to be delayed by the last minute client roll out that definitely impacted the ability to get on a server before they filled up. Given the expectations set by Wild Card during ASA’s initial launch of not wanting console players to be “left in the dust” by other players who had release day access in getting started, when console players didn’t, I was very disappointed, but not surprised that Wild Card learner nothing from its mistake of not ensure that this type of player experience was not repeated during other releases like this one (actions and words not the same), and yet it was but even worse then before because after playing nearly the same for ASA additional content for Aaron game and DLC that was released as free yesterday on Game Pass and collecting another $30, people couldn’t get in, either via the Ob on an Official Server they were a member of or through a new character because Wild Card did not “plan accordingly” to the fact that on launch day, in addition to ASA’s existing customer base, ASA was free to play on Game Pass on console, with someone posting WC’s gratitude over the last several hours about the overwhelming interest or success in the game, or words to that effect, when in fact limiting the number of Official Servers to a level well below your company paid customer base was and is going to create a false or misleading image of “overwhelming interest” (and a lack of sincerity on what WC really thinks of its loyal supporters) when it was in fact a problem on WC’s end because it’s really because the folks in charge of resource planning and deployment “short changed” Wild Card and its consumer base to the point of creating “Very Dissatisfied” customers like me. Wild Card has a great product in Ark as a survival game, but continues to score “F”s and “D”s with it’s lack of Customer Focus Culture” (Microsoft had a whole “CFC” initiative once upon a time) and inability to set the proper customer expectations, especially with it comes to game releases, release days, announcements, resulting in a “Very Dissatisfied” customer experience overall… VN84

  15. I wish you gave us some behind-the-scenes content about the animated series. An interview about the writing decisions, or showing some scenes being animated, or... it already feels like it's old news to you. It was yesterday. Glad that you see it and clarify things. More of that, more often.

  16. All this shows is that you don't know squat about Australia. Australia, like the U.S., has immigrants from a wide variety of locaations, people from all over S.E. Asia and the western pacific have been emigrating to Australia for decades. Looking at someone's skin color in a society that has long standing immigration and deciding they "don't make sense" only means that you have a very limited imagination and prefer to see cliche, obvious character selection. Beyond this, there is an element that should be super-obvious. Australia also has inter-marriage which has been going on for generations. Even if you never look beyond the shores of the island there are plenty of Australians of mixed brown/white ancestry. It's not anyone "making a point", you're projecting your ideology on other people. You're working from the assumption that when someone else does so they're doing it to make a point. Authors choose characters for a wide variety of reasons, but by far the most common reason is that an author thinks the character will be interesting. If she was straight and white you wouldn't be suggesting that anyone was trying to make a point, and yet you assume that making her brown and lesbian is somehow making a point, which is pretty silly thinking. Likewise, her wife being a "blue haired pale white chick" has no more meaning than this is the character's background. Brown people live their lives differently than you do, lesbians live their lives differently than you do, blue haired white chicks live their lives differently than you do, and so on. None of that mean that the authors are trying to bring politics into their story, that's just you projecting your values and preferences on to other people. The only thing "absolutely disrespectful" is that you mis-interpret the show to push your political and social agenda while trying to pretend that you're not. Sometimes the hero of a story is Luke Skywalker, a standard white boy from the country, sometimes the hero of the story is an intellectually superior dwarf from a noble family, sometimes the hero of the story is a brown lesbian with a white wife. If you stop making your terrible assumption that only certain people are allowed to be the hero of a story then you will find yourself enjoying stories on their own merits rather than being offended by false narratives that you've falsely constructed in your head. Nonsense, this is you projecting again. The only reference they made was that the two of them are adults who have an adult relationship - just like every other show and story about adults does. No, it's absolutely not. The significant majority of the ARK player base are of age, you can drop your hand-wringing "for the children" arguments, that's nothing more than a lie you're telling yourself to justify your hand-wringing. This must be your first day on the internet, children have access to all of the porn on the planet, not one of them are being exposed to the concept of lesbians for the first time in their lives by the ARK cartoon. And again, your insistence on "scissoring" nothing more than you trying to use dog-whistle buzzword to pretend that this was some sort of excessive display of sexuality, which was absolutely not the case. If you see two women walking into a bedroom, closing the door and the first thing that comes to your mind is "SCISSORING OMGZ!" then all you're doing is exposing your own peculiarities (and probably your own sexual fantasies as well). There are thousands of example of shows showing adults walking into a room and closing the door behind them, there's nothing strange, excessive or bizarre about it happening on this show. That's up to their parents to decide, not you. If you don't want your kids to watch this show then don't let them, but I guarantee you that millions of parents around the world don't care one tiny bit about the very tame, very non-explicit relationship shown between those two characters. Standard network TV has lot's of more explicit sexuality than was shown in ARK, and all of the big streaming services have much more material that kids watch that is more sexually explicit than Ark. And there it is, there's the true agenda driving your socio-political diatribe that you're trying to pretend isn't one. Here's a puzzle for you, natural selection and evolution are both entirely real, and yet every species (of mammal) has homosexual relationships. If the existence of homosexuality is forbidden or prevented by natural selection, why does it keep occurring? The answer is simple (even though you're not going to want to admit it), it's because homosexual relationships benefit the species as a whole. Individuals who are homosexual don't pass on their own genes directly, but they do indirectly help to pass on the genes of their family group, which still benefits the species. If you're going to try to use natural selection as the basis of your (political) argument, than you need to make sure that you understand how it works. You're pretending that natural selection supports your (political) position, but it doesn't, natural selection and evolution demonstrate why your thinking is wrong. Translation: You are, in your own words, "transphobic racists or homophobic" but you want to pretend that you're not. No, you're pointing out your own irrationality. There's no law that says you have to like gay or trans people, your feelings are your feelings. But if you're going to attempt to use arguments like natural selection to justify those feelings then you're going to need to come up with arguments that can withstand the scrutiny of logic, and yours don't. Everything you've said here has been your arguing from the position of your own collections of irrationalities.

  18. ....and the pvp crowd on Ark is the most emotionally stunted, toxic, foul-mouthed aggressive children I have ever played a game with. I have never met a group of gamers that logged on with the sole intention of causing frustration and loss to fellow gamers. Pvp is about competition, not about preventing other people from playing the game and verbally abusing them while you repeatedly force respawn timers and call them racial slurs. When I asked them to politely give me some breathing room to at least progress to metal tools I was not only killed but incapacitated over and over to simply waste my time. When my old ass is dead and gone and these children inherit the adult world I pity them if their real world trappings even remotely resemble the abhorrent behavior and attitudes they display in video games.

  20. WOOHOOOO THE CENTER!!! LET’S GOOOOOOOO!!! Probably my top favorite map, to those that started playing after the addition of aberration, the center to a lot of us long time original ASE veterans holds a place in our hearts that is indescribable. I will never forget those beginning months of that map. I hope you guys fixed that blasted lighting issue in the snow after a thunderstorm though. OOOOFFF! That was enough to give ya epileptic seizures! Good to see the Shasta is BACK on the center where it was voted to be! I would like to see you guys relaunch The Center how it did originally and NOT TO CHANGE IT THIS TIME! I mean in the regards that a Giga (or Carchar) has a rare chance to spawn ANYWHERE on the map. The Center was supposed to be how many times harder than the island and after that change it really wasn’t. Nothing screams Ark to me than going about doing different tasks and have that fill the back of your pants moment. I also hope you guys added some things to the map that the rest of the maps got as far as element spawns or black pearl spawns like Ragnarok. Every non-story map seemed to get things like creatures and resources that were capable to get on the previous story maps, except The Center. Rag had the wyvern scar and wyvern bay, it introduced us to the ice wyvern, the griffin and the in world mini bosses (that were a lot of fun to run), as well as the desert with the SE creatures. Val had the in world broodmother and the deinychus and the aberration biome. Crystal Isles introduced us to the crystal wyverns and also had the desert biome and gave us the ability to farm element and black pearls for tek. Last but not least Fjordur gave us just about everything in one package (kinda wish it was a little bigger than it was but still awesome map). The point I’m making is The Center seemed to have gotten left behind and always felt like the map had the potential to offer more than what it did. There are cool things about it like the underworld, the air pockets in the ocean the volcanic islands, the ice cave and the super deep ocean but they’re almost 1 trick ponies. Yeah it’s cool to go check em out but after that they get forgotten. It’s probably too much last minute at this point and I hope you guys already thought about that sort of stuff and added in some of the things that The Center got left behind on, but also hopefully to continue to bring it up to date in the future as the roadmap plays out, as the story maps get released. Just food for thought and all in the same, like I started this……WOOOHOOOOOOO THE CENTER!!!! LET’S GOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Definitely excited for this one!!!!

  21. Support for Scorched Ascended will be added as soon as either an explorer or resouce map is made available. Already jumped in and worked out co-ordinate system is the same used by The Island so have the grid ready to put a map in-place and add the maps.json. Weird having creatures in the base game that you can see but can't tame without the "Bobs Tales" adventure pack - unless you "CHEAT DOTAME" ..edit.. Might need a little more time to get the new "Oasisaur" read in. Of course they went with a different set of properties to normal creatures where there is no reference to the status component from the Oasisaur_Character_BP object.. or the standard "bServerInitializedDino". I should still be able to link things back in reverse - the status/inventory components still contains the "id" back to the "Character_BP" component.

  22. Bugs like low level dx errors when using DLSS are still unresolved since launch (and yes, they're all reported in the bugs section, they're just clearly being ignored). Given the state of the game, it just feels like a really laughable time to be releasing new paid content.

  23. Download in full resolution Looks like all that desert heat's gone to our heads, planning a release over the holiday weekend… So to avoid any holiday mishaps and the complications of a cross-platform rollout on a Sunday, the launch is just getting moved to Monday, April 1st, for a proper showdown! To keep things fair and fiery during those first few weeks, Scorched Earth will be a bit of a wild frontier. You'll only be able to bring your characters over for the first 60 days, you won't be able to bring any dinos or items onto the map. After the first 60 days, the gates swing wide open! We know this might throw a wrench in your weekend plans, and we're truly sorry about that. Rest assured, Scorched Earth and Bob's Tall Tales are just about ready to ride!

  24. ^Thats probably the biggest problem with ASA. It's hard to feel like the franchise is being pushed forward when these bugs from basically the games inception are still around. We'll see if Scorched can buck the trend but I wouldn't bet my tek rifle on it.

  28. Welcome back sunken survivors! The past two weeks have really flown by for us! No, seriously, why is 2024 moving so quickly? I swear it was just January last week. Unfortunately, the speed of the past fortnight has caused most of the TSW team to be caught up in a ton of real life stuff. There's still plenty to share with you, just no fancy new pictures to show off. However, we've got a ton of fun stuff coming soon! Read on to find out what's coming next to the ASA branch of the mod, learn about the AMA we're hosting and see the behind the scenes development of Henodus! If this is your first time diving into the deep end, we are a dedicated team of individuals who are looking to spruce up the ocean biome in the same way that Scorched Earth offered a unique, biome specific challenge to survival. New creatures, resources, structures, items and more, all set on a huge custom map, we're looking to give ARK's oceans the TLC they deserve! The main goal is to bridge that huge gap between early and late game ocean exploration, and make it much more viable and more fun to live a life beneath the waves! This is unofficial content and is only related to our mod. It is in no way related with the official game and its content releases. Let's dive into the scoop! WHAT'S NEXT? More creatures. No, seriously. Jokes aside though, the release of Scorched Earth may lead you to believe that the prospect of new TSW creatures is looking a bit dry at the moment, but it's quite the contrary! Snappin is currently working on porting all of our lovely fish from ASE to ASA. Bothriolepis, Lepidotes, Materpiscis and the mean annoying one Saurichthys are coming soon to a body of water near you! And if you're on a desert ARK with barely a drop of water in sight, after the fish have settled into the sea, Protoceratops will be making its debut on Scorched! In less cryptic terms, we're working on porting over the fish first, and once those are done, Protoceratops will be coming to Scorched Earth! Below is an old teaser of the fruit-addicted ceratopsian from ASE's devkit! TSW TEAM'S AMA What's that meant to stand for? Abnormally Massive Anomalocaris? No! That's an Ask Me Anything! Over in our Discord, we've been getting a ton of really engaging questions from the community over the past few weeks, which have been super enjoyable for us to answer! It really means a lot to us seeing how everyone is just as excited as we are for the future of TSW! So, we thought we should open the floor to any burning questions that people have about all the factors that go into TSW. There's a new temporary channel in our discord to ask us about anything from our creature design process to modelling and more! We'll answer everything we can, except for things like ETAs and release dates. Those aren't fun and interesting questions, and come with the curse of ARK release dates. COMMUNITY CORNER In a solar eclipse, people get the chance to witness two planetary bodies align, in an incredibly rare and beautiful event. But a Sunken Scoop with a Community Corner is even rarer! Go check out the fun submissions we've gotten these past two weeks! In addition to the AMA we're hosting, if you have anything else TSW related you'd like to share, feel free to send over some screenshots, artwork/fanart, videos or anything in between! There's a submssions channel in our Discord, or you can tag us @ARKSunken or with the hashtag #sunkenscoop on Twitter! Clips and Videos Creator: DarkEdgeTV DarkEdgeTV is back with another feature, and this time everyone's favourite pancake is getting its time in the spotlight! Make sure to give her Henodus stacking challenge an attempt! That's all for this edition of the Sunken Scoop, thanks for tuning in! Lots more to come in the next few weeks, and please do come over to our discord to ask us those questions! Have a wonderful timezone! If this is your first time seeing TSW, check out the links below to find out more! Please note that if you want to play our mod, you need both the map and creature mod active.

  29. I agree. The Island didn't get its own unique voted creature because the Rhynio was added to A.S.E. before they decided to make A.S.A. something separate and then they didn't do a new creature vote for The Island. The Gigaraptor could be The Island's A.S.A. voted creature and we could do a new vote for Rag.

  30. Why not? Rag should 100% get a new creature now that the gigaraptor has been used up as WC's bandaid for screwing up the center launch.

  31. Dear Joebl0w13, I apologize, I don't know how to respond directly to you like you did, but I simply wanted to clarify one point. I think you didn't read what I wrote correctly or you didn't understand the meaning of the sentence. I'm not asking to have all the mods for free. On the contrary, prenuim mods are a very good thing. I'm simply saying that it would undoubtedly be preferable and even more profitable for server owners, modders and players to implement the same system that the Bob's Tall Tailes DLC already has by ensuring that players who join a server who owns one or more premium mods does not have to pay to access the server. However, players who do not pay for premium mods will not be able to use the creatures/items from these mods. Exactly the same way as the developers introduced with the Bob's Tall Tailes DLC this will allow the server owner not to lose players and it will allow players to Those who do not buy premium mods from a server could see if premium mods interest them by watching other players who have paid for the mods play.

  33. I'd like to make a petition to increase carry weight on oasisaur, literally it was sold as a moving base, but 2,500 carry weight make that impossible. 1 rex over it and it uses 1/5, a few stacks of food and resources and it is full. Literally the carry weight make it useless and so expensive talking about real money.

  35. I know we've seen a few of them already and most of them are valid, but my specific beef with it, is that if you decide you don't want it, there is no way to just filter out content that has to do with it and i feel that was intentional to kind of bully you into buying it. Every time i find an explorer note or a treasure map that tells me to make a purchase, or when i open my engram list and it's filled with essentially advertisements for this DLC it makes me want to dig in and not buy it more. Trust me, i get it, they have a checkered past and a publisher that is terrible with money, and their mob boss nitrado shaking them down to pay their debts back, but come on. It's already bad enough they are making us pay 30 dollars for a third of the content with a promise of the other 2/3rds later.. i have been playing this and ASE since launch i do not preorder anything from wildcard. It's just the principal of the matter at this point. they keep hitting us up for money every chance they can. it's starting to remind me of other AAA companies and their 50 dollar mounts and such. XD tldr: stop "advertising" in my game for content i am not going to buy.

  36. See above. They have a completely different team working on The Center. And trust me, there is a LOT of people looking forward to the map.

  38. Paying for a map, or for extra content is normal in gaming, and as far as I know its allowed in every country. Presenting prizes, IE Treasure Caches, with different rarity, that are gated by a payment, is imo designed to create a psychological response to increase player excitement and led the player to spend money, to gamble, to pay for a random prize. In this case, to do a single payment which also has to be done in few time, because tickets (Treasure caches) have expiration timer. What reaction do you think a kid (the game is rated +16) will have if they recieve an "Ascendant Treasure Cache" and if they dont have the DLC. Let me tell you, they are gonna be psychological influenced to make their parents buy the DLC in a hurry. To open a prize that they dont even know what can be. This is explicity forbidden in some contries. For instance in Japon, Korea, the developer MUST list all the items in the loot caches with the exact % of drop. Still, thats a relaxed regulation that doesnt ban the random loot behind a pay wall. In Belgium and Netherland the regulations are much more severe. Games that do any kind of gambling are forbidden. There are games like CSGO, that had to create a specific version for these countries completely removing the loot boxes from the game. They do to protect the young ppl from gambling. Add to that I've read multiple times in the chat of my official server how people is looting this treasure maps and they dont have the DLC and they comment they werent planing on buying the DLC but with that treasure map they have the curiosity of know whats inside so they buy it. So, imo, clearly, the system to influence users to buy the DLC just to claim the prize is working as intended. And imo this should be put in the knowledge of countries that do regulate gambling in game for evaluation.

  39. Updated to reflect "double the size of The Island" - which is really just a call-out to the original map description, didn't mean to intend it would be double the size of the previous Center.

  42. I normally don't comment but I wanted to say how happy I am about it not being delayed. I would always rather wait longer than have it be delayed or unfinished. Good job the Wildcard team! (People seem to think a day is a delay)

  43. Download in full resolution Venture into the skies of Scorched Earth with Oasisaur zurzura, a colossal yet gravity-defying island reminiscent of mythical legends. Beyond its sheer size and appetite for large vegetation, this airborne sanctuary cultivates life, with soil so fertile that it promises growth with minimal effort. Its back, vast enough for a small community, becomes a nurturing ground for those seeking refuge and companionship. The Oasisaur's most magical offering is a pool with healing waters, capable of curing ailments and even resurrecting lost animal friends. We see the confusion in the community about Bob's Tall Tales and the estimated dates in the description, so we wanted to share a quick update. Think of "Bob's Tall Tales" as the fun bonus chapters to the main story. The dates on the store page are rough timeframes for those wild Bob-centric adventures, not release dates for the main expansion content they tie into. Think of the expansions like the main course, and Bob's Tall Tales as the extra-spicy side dish. Don't worry—the main canonical content is still on track. Scorched Earth will blast in on March 31st, and the rest of the roadmap is looking good. As development progresses, we'll be able to give better estimations for the rest of Bob's Tall Tales. In the meantime, keep those detective skills sharp!
