i recently discovered the setRes command on ps5 and tried to set the res to 720 thinking i would make the game run smoother but it didnt work, i just got a black screen and had to restart my game. but i seen on a reddit thread that someone was setting it to 1080p witch i thought was strange because 1080p is what i had allways assumed it had been. but i tried anyway and low and behold my frame rate jumped from 40 to 55 to about 60 to 80 without having to have my game look like poop, even without v sync on so i can avoid the input lag that comes with it, using this setting makes ark asa on ps5 run as if it were just a normal game without any severe performance problems, just mostly decent 1080p, 60 fps without having your game look worse than ase on original xbox one, no complaints. but the second i go to use the inventory ,the ui doesnt match up with the resolution, so to click on things in the inventory i have to move mouse to a position way right and down from what i am trying to click on and i quickly realized that this command is unusable if want to use a mouse, and just annoying if you use a controller . so does anyone have a solution to this, or know why the game is set to 1440 resolution by default, im thinking that if wildcard had a setting in the settings that allowed you to pick between 1440 and 1080 there would be a huge all around performance increase on console without any downside at all. if anyone has means to actually point this out to someone from wild card it would be much appreciated, it just seems kinda unacceptable that i am 1 ui bug away from the game actually running decent and seems stupid that the game would be set to 1440 by default.

Tried official and unofficial both give me a black screen after choose spawn location. After the 2 intro videos( Helena and bobs tales) I get a black screen with light scratchy building in the distance. Nothing has worked. Updating drivers, verifying files, even a ASA clean install. Nothing worked. PLEASE FIX if anyone has any advice I would be so grateful

So my tribe and i ran the end boss alpha and at the end put all my items in my dino to not loose it all... then watched the cut scene and game crashed back to main menu, not an issue. But then when i tried to log back into my server we had just played on... i noticed i didn't get an option ot download my lvl 101 survivor with all the engrams or anything... my character was just gone... and still is... is there any way that Wild Card can help get my character back? it must be archived somewhere right? i just rather not loose the many hours i have in my 100%ed raised babys...

The list of bugs in the forum dedicated to this is enormous. Many may have been patched since then. However, how do I know if this is considered because I never see a response to topics. Do developers have access to it? Is the investment of listing a bug worth it? thanks you, long day for Ark!

Hello we're trying to get our beloved server transfered to a solo session with a buddy on Ark Survival Evolved we already transfered also the data from server to a file and we put that into Ark local save folder (we also did that for the config) and finnaly we obviously rename the file with LocalPlayer however when we try to load in this (now solo session) however the first time we ried to log in we got greated by this message so obviously as the hard head i am i tried loading again with no cange whatsoever and instead got greated by this message : Fatal error!

So I'm French, and I'm not complaining about the quality of the French translation of the creatures or the game, which is, to my taste, really mocking... ( bien, argent, oublié, rapace, ça fait de jolis noms...) But rather about the grass bug that is missing on modded maps like Svartalfheim on PS5 (I host a Nitrado server) Although I find this map wonderfully beautiful, more than others like The Center, but I don't find it normal, If i play and pay for a map, and having bugs whether it's the fault of Wildcard or someone else... Will this ever be fixed?

After crossing the Ark, the surface of the water shimmered And the automatic opening and closing effect of all doors cannot take effect. This situation only occurs after crossing the Ark and disappears after manually re-entering the server or dying once. Has anyone encountered the same situation?

Every time I try to pick with the Rhynio it does the melee attack and then zooms in. I am on controller and I’m holding r1 and pressing r2 but I doesn’t pick and I’m the only one in my tribe with this problem and it is really annoying and doesn’t let me move anything that can’t be picked with a argy around. Please fix this!

As the title says, it seems my game has been crashing only on the center at certain times. At first, I thought it was the sky being on causing the issues because it seemed when I looked up, I would crash, but then I crashed in a boss fight, and I kept crashing until I was out of the boss fight even with the setting that on turned the sky off. It is making the center basically unplayable, and there seems not to be any actual crash logs, so if anyone can help with it, that would be amazing. I have a 2080 Ti and 9700K so decent poop. All my settings are on low or off. If anyone else is experiencing this issue lmk and if you have logs that would be useful please share.

So i was playing Se and i found 2 floating islands which are out of place, especially the one made of ice. I suppose that they're related to the INX Cave builder mod, but I don't know why they spawned there.

For some reason no matter what I do, I cannot see supply drop beams on my Xbox series S. When the game first came out I could, and now I cannot. Please either tell me how to fix this or fix it in game.

I transferred my character over to Scorched Earth, and was hopping back to the Island to pick up some resources. When I loaded back into SE, my tames were under the map, and when I went to retrieve them using the "Ghost" command, the game crashed. When I rebooted the game, my character was completely deleted. All my character data was gone for both the Island and SE, and the only way to get back onto the map was to create a new character. This is the second time this has happened this week. Previously, I hadn't transferred anything, but the game crashed right after I ascended, which then deleted my character in the same manner.

when i open drops, obelisks or anything that you use to transfer between maps i will disconnect. I am wondering if there are any fixes for this on ASE or there is a way to open a ticket for it (i only found for asa)

Really often when we start our ark Cluster Server (we start First the Island and then Scorched Earth) then we often have the Problem That a Part of our saddles and Items on scorched Earth and Island dissapear. its Not everything but a Part of it just dissapears like our cryopods with creatures or Some of our agrentavis.It Seems That its Never from our Inventory its Kind of Weird we always Transfer dinos with Obelisk and yes we remove the saddles and put it into our inventory. sry for my Bad grammar im german

Hey, since SE is a bit busy at the moment, i tried to continue on an official The Island Server. Unfortunatley it became unplayable due to visual glitches. Shadow/Sunrays are flashing/flickering a lot, like someone is turning lightswitches on and off over and over again. Happens even inside my base and seems to be more common, where a lot of shadow/fog and light is mixing up (forest areas during sunrise/dawn). Pretty positive about this is a new glitch introduced with the Launch of Secorched earth. Anybody got that aswell? I remember this was once a problem on PC at the release and got fixed.

When throwing a carcharo out of a cryopod all inventory items and engrams become bugged and eventually crash the game. I managed to "fix" the the inventory issues by dying and using a mindwipe tonic (which caused a crash but apparently went through). All my items were lost but I didn't need to create a new character 🤷 this issue happens consistently

Hi there! I'm brand new to the forums here, so I apologise in advance if this is the incorrect place to seek help in but my husband and I are at our utter wits end. I've searched Google, I asked on the discord, we've scoured and played with ini settings, permissions, wiped mods, reinstalled them, uninstalled and reinstalled the game-you name it and we've likely tried it. Please, any suggestions or help and advice would be wonderful. I can't stand playing vanilla 🥺 So to start this off, my husband hosts a local non-dedicated modded server for us. We keep the mods up to date. However, we've had issues with it from day 1, all of which have been for me. So the issue is that any non-vanilla structures can't be placed, it simply shows the placement of it and then doesn't appear if placed. Here's the weird part though, most of the time if it CAN be placed it will instead place something else entirely different (Modded structure as well). I've discovered that if I pick up the random item that it picked, it will (usually, not always) place down the original structure. Simplified: Modded fridge ---> Modded wall. Modded wall ---> Modded fridge, or not at all. As I said, this rule doesn't seem to apply to every item. Initially we thought it could be an Automated Ark issue, so we removed it entirely from our game. And would you believe it? The issue had resolved for me! Except...It came back after logging on the next day, so clearly we had infact not solved the problem still. Second part to this is that this isn't just the problem for myself. I tested it in singleplayer and there was no issues whatsoever, however if I made a non-ded server and had my husband join then HE started having the exact same issues, mostly where he couldn't place any structures down at all, even in my tribe and admin/permissions turned on (It didnt seem to put random items down although I dont think we tested it enough). From what I see, it could be a hosting issue? So far I cannot find a single other person who has had this problem. Help is appreciated, I'm burned out on troubleshooting it for days and days on end. 😭

Gigantoraptor RESETS imprinted above 27% down to 27% when using bonding. Went from 70% to 27% tried with non imprinted and it went from 0 to 27%

I downloaded the update on 2/26/24 and ever since my official modded/only server has disappeared and still not come back. What happened and what's happening to fix it? I had about 35 juveniles out on troughs and extremely important ones too.

I keep getting removed from tribe every time i log in, my tribemate used to have the issue but its not stopped and now im getting it, anyone know how to fix? Surely this is a known issue and still not fixed. Ive already uninstalled and reinstalled and i dont know what else to do, kind of making the game impossible to play when i have to constantly get added back

Has anyone on Xbox series X experienced this and if so how do you fix it? I have spent a few hours playing on a solo file I had since downloading the game months ago, however now it seems to lose hours of progress and throw me back to previous times I load it up? It is really frustrating I tried the admincheat saveworld but even that seemed to do nothing any advice?

Ok I know a lot of people are having issues. I need help bad. My Ark Survival Ascended on The PlayStation 5 is not allowing me to log into it and frankly I would really not like to loose my Dino's and base before my timer runs out. Does anyone have the solution to this issue? This has been happening to me every other week and it's really taking it's toll on me.

Hello, I have had an issue recently in which my single player world has seemingly been lost. I say seemingly because every time I try to open the world my game closes. I am playing on PC and had recently tried to make a custom mod for the game, however I don't know how that could've caused this issue. My world settings are gone, my mods had been deactivated, there's no "Join last world" option in the main menu anymore, and the aforementioned closing when trying to open the world to see what happened. I had tried to revert back to my last save but it won't even allow me to click on the "browse" option when accessing the file. I am truly lost and do not know what to do, is my world just gone like that? That's infuriating if so as I have roughly 183 hours in that world (Yes some AFK but still) and honestly If this issue isn't fixable, I might drop the game entirely as this is ridiculous. Please help me if you know a potential fix as I still do hold out hope for this game. Thanks

Has anyone else experienced any issues with their account during the recent server update? On the evening of February 9th, the server malfunctioned, and we were unable to log in for several hours. When I finally joined the server, I was shocked to discover that my character, Ivor Bigun, was reset to level 1 despite being at level 109 before the update. Moreover, I was no longer a part of our tribe, ARKcore. This issue is unacceptable and has caused me a great deal of frustration. I own a large number of Dinos that require imprinting, and now we cannot get them done. My tribemate found my bag on the floor in the tribe's base, and my gamer tag was still there, with the character ID ending 47795. My chibi was level 5, which allowed me to reach level 109. We need to find my character and achievements since my absence has had a significant impact on my tribe. I've been playing ARK for more than a decade now since the Beta phase was first released, and unfortunately, I'd encountered the same bug 5-6 times before, during the ASE period. We had hoped that with the new investment and structure, now that Wildcard has more resources, would have resolved some of the known issues. This is unfortunate to know that despite the issue will affect players significantly, Wildcard is going to overlook the problem, as addressed by Wildcard GM Reaper. It's evident that Wildcard, the game developers, are responsible for this significant bug, and they need to address it right away. I mean, how difficult it is to get my character back with the same player ID?

Anyone else having a problem even getting to the server search menu? I keep getting a "You must be signed- in to play online" message. It's frustrating, I've done everything I can possibly think of, reset my Xbox, sign in and out of my Xbox profile, turn the game on & off and every combination of said strategies. I even came on here to sign in with my Xbox account and nothing. And yes.. I am online and connected to the internet before some smart*** makes that suggestion
