I've made a server with nitrado and I've set it up right but it still won't accept the admin password I'm tryna do a dino wipe but I can't, pls help

As a server owner, I'm in the awkward position of trying to include XBox players to our servers for the first time. It's proving to be exceedingly difficult as there is no list or database of which mods are available for console users, and if I activate XBox on my PC server, any non-compatible mods are automatically deleted. This could cause MASSIVE loss of all sorts of resources and tames for players. Can we PLEASE get a list somewhere (or a search parameter in Curse Forge) for XBOX mods?

Hi, Thinking about Renting or setting up a dedi server for ASA and was wondering is it crossplay, so players on Xbox and PC can join the same server? Is it possible to setup an Xbox and PC Crossplay server myself without renting? Regards, Gaz

A tribe has blocked every note on a xbox console only server. Is this a breach of the code of conduct and can anything be done about it?

Is there any information at all out there if Xbox getting its ability to host dedicated servers in the future? We use to be able to do it in ASE but I know originally the plan was for nitrado servers only. I have since seen the roll back for steam allowing them to host private servers but will Xbox get this function again. I don’t expect an eta but if someone from WC can just confirm yes or no that would be greatly appreciated.

When you have a baby dino that is ready for imprinting you currently cannot see what it wants to eat (if it wants to eat something). When playing on PC with a controller someone said it helps if you move the mouse once, but this is not possible on Xbox. Make "Camera > Invert Y" ONLY invert the camera. Currently it just inverts the whole right sticks Y making it hard to use the "Toggle xy"-wheel and the map. Moving a whole stack of an item automatically into the other inventory (and back) was possible in ASE on console by holding the corresponding button (A on xbox X on ps) but now you have to always drag it all the way to the other inventory, not fun! Server is never showing up in favorites although it is marked as favorite, furthermote "Join last session" in start screen works neither. Quick resume on XBOX also leads to ALL server lists (official/unofficial etc) being empty. Searching/refreshing doesnt help. App currently always needs to be completely closed (before or after xbox was shut down/started again) Vibration is off but controller still vibrates on death. If you open the settings shortly before the respawn prompt/map shows you will be stuck showing the settings screen but the button focus being in the respawn screen.

Hello. I saw that asa came out on xbox and flocked to go buy it. I play on a series S and its not letting me buy the game. I dont know why its doing this but is the Series S compatible with the game?

Hi all, I just bought ARK SA on Xbox, and I cannot play with my friend on Steam. Was I misinformed that this was supposed to be available at this point? We cannot find each other's servers listed in the non-dedicated servers list. I would also like to note that I am unable to join any of the official servers listed. It says connection timed out. Is it ever going to be possible to play on a private world with a non-dedicated server between Steam and Xbox?

In community crunch Studio Wildcard said want to synchronize the rates by mid-December. So I assume they will respect the date for server transfers... And about the boost to recover the time lost, I hope they will do it in the right way. XBOX have 18 days delay from Steam so should get 2x for 18 days. PS5, for example if get the launch on 26th November (with 30 days delay from Steam) should get 3x for 15 days to recover the 30 days lost. In this way we all be at the same level, and ready for server transfer in mid-December.

A lot of games that are in 3rd person have an easily accessible free look mechanism. Ark has orbital camer but it is clunky on consoles. Currently the RB button and RT both perform as an attack. I'm proposing to switch RB to a third person free look when held. The functionality I'm speaking up is identical to how pubgs free look works on consoles. I hold RB and move right stick to look around you while your body keeps the same orientation. Whenever RB is released the camera snaps back to the way your character was looking. This would be a huge QOL improvement for console players. Thanks

I've played ark on and off on xbox for the last couple years and have a decent amount of hours. I'm fairly experienced and good with farming, grinding, taming, and raising. I'm okay with raiding and would be happy to learn more. I'm looking to get back into the game and looking for a tribe I can be a part of. I'm happy to grind and prove my worth. I can play during the week and some during the weekends. My discord is arcteryyx. Feel free to add me and message me. Looking forward to getting back into Ark!

Come play hardcore. What are you scared of??

What is one of the most important factors for an online game? The popularity! Nobody wants to play in an empty online game, right? Well, let's start by saying that even before ASCENDED was announced, EVOLVED was already dead. ARK is a game that has population loss as a natural consequence, because half of the players that lose everything don't want to start from zero or don't have chances because it's hwrd for a new tribe to compete with the old ones. Another reason that made the game dead was the ever-increasing opening of new types of servers like SmallTribes and many others, that divided the population, making the official servers more and more dead. The novelty of the ASA announcement that excited many was the possibility of playing in complete crossplay, because the servers would be SUPER populated. But now, for fear of unbalanced games and PC cheats, Wildcard wants to create servers only for consoles and this way will divide the console community into 4 parts! (also considering SmallTribes Fullycrossplay and SmallTribes console-only crossplay) Console tribes are now confused. They don't know where to go to play. Full crossplay more populated but perhaps unbalanced and with cheats or just console less populated but more "safer"? This split is the worst thing Wildcard could do. With new servers we have a great opportunity to populate the pvp community and we are wasting it. 🔸 MY ADVICE IS THIS: set the console-only servers as if they are like servers of new maps you opened on EVOLVED. That is, with partially limited transfers. - Can transfer characters from full crossplay to console crossplay; - Can transfer characters from console crossplay to full crossplay; - Can transfer items from console crossplay to full crossplay; - CAN'T transfer items from full crossplay to console crossplay. In this way, anyone that decides to build a base on consolle-only crossplay (because they are afraid of unbalanced play and PC cheats) will still be able to have bases on fully crossplay servers too and in the future will be able to transfer everything from the console-only crossplay. To do full crossplay if the cheats are indeed fixed. Console-only servers cannot be attacked by the PC but as also PC players will not be disadvantaged by this situation: why would console-only players attack PC servers if they can't bring back their loot and items? And, PC players would still have significantly better dinosaur stats than console-only players. 🔸 Another idea is to eliminate SmallTribes to encourage players to find/create large tribes in the official. Or connect also SmallTribes servers with official servers (removing the 3x and leaving only the tribe member limit). In this way, whoever attacks those servers will only be able to do so by creating tribes of 6 players. In short, it's important to build a HUGE PvP community.

We need a setting that can be enable for passive creatures to be aggressive and carnivores to be EXTRA aggressive to add more survival to the game. Imagine on the beach everything in aggro range will attack you this would add to the survival. We also need the ability to boost WILD creatures Damage without affecting tame creatures stats when tamed. Also the game can use a HORDE MODE survival mode something like 7 Days To Die. We can set the timer to determine when the wave begins. Sort of like Extinction OSD Drops or Element vein waves but instead the WILD creatures comes to destroy your home-base. You have to fortify and be prepared to defend your base from Alphas including Alpha rexes alpha raptors alpha carnos gigas rexes theris challys and other regular creatures. The max tier in this mode is STONE sort of like primitive+. This means your base can be destroyed during a horde attack. Waves can be 3 days 5 days 7 days or 10 days, we can customize the waves and settings to our liking. This would make PVE essentially PVP but with AI's which would add tremendously value to the game. I can see ALOT of players choosing to play Horde Mode over other modes, especially someone who enjoys PVE and PVP but don't have time to play PVP or don't like the RISK that comes with PVP. In conclusion you would spend your week building fortifying and breeding super dinos to help defend your base during Horde Waves which would be set to 7 Days on official servers and custom on dedicated servers. I think a mode like this would inject NEW life into ark. This mode would be crowded so players who have less time to play and compete in the default pvp mode can get their fix in the Horde mode. I would love to see a Mode like this get added to the playlist. ASA needs NEW modes give players more things to do. PVE gets pretty boring once you are established, adding a horde mode would keep you on more engaged 7 days a week. You would get to enjoy the same PVE experience except every 7 days you have to defend yourself from the WILD. Also add a setting to determine how long before the waves end. Maybe something like 15 mins 20 mins 25 mins 30 mins. After completing a Horde Wave you get rewarded with XP, resources and items to AID in the rebuilding process to prep for the next EVENT. No CRYOPODS in this mode. This will ensure players don't hide their creatures. 300 Max creature limit *Customizable On Dedicated Servers* Essentially Horde mode with certain items removed or balanced. Knowing you will have to survive every week will keep you playing and if you have been grinding for months you wouldn't risk your hard work by missing a week. To conclude you are essentially enjoying PVE with PVP aspects without real players. This is a mode I think would shake up the entire ark universe. I really hope we can get the word out so we can get something like this added to the playlist. I know we have survival of the fittest but that is not the same thing not even close. This is regular PVE with 7 Days To Die horde like aspects. One last thing we need a setting to increase or decrease the range of aggro for creatures for the default PVE gameplay. This would also add more survival to the game because dinos would be able to aggro from longer distance. Imagine being at base doing something and a theri swipes you out of no where. The PVE aspects needs more SURVIVAL added game becomes too easy and is not challenging once you are established. Also add a setting to determine how strong the creatures are in Horde Mode. Maybe a difficulty settings for dedicated servers. Like Normal Hard Insane. This would let the player-host choose how much challenge they would like during gameplay. On official have 2 sets of servers Normal and Hard, Insane difficulty is only for dedicated servers. This would give US the players the option to choose how to play especially players who are very experienced.

The update still dosent appear in the xbox app and windows app neither, can someone confirm it usually takes this long for the update to roll out.

make xbox users able to customize graphic quality as deep as pc users.

i really need help with this! I’ve never really done this before but desperate times call for desperate measures. So, me and a friend have recently been playing on a Dedicated server that i run using my Xbox Series X, while i play on my Xbox one S, a couple months back, around January this year (2023), we were doing the exact same thing with no problems. only difference this time is, when attempting to upload our characters at the obelisk to go on a different map, in this case going from the island to Scorched earth, we don’t have the option to “Upload character” the only option we see is “Travel to another server” and when we click on it it says “Sessions in cluster” which there are none! Does anyone have any clue how to get it back to allowing us to have the upload character thing instead of this server cluster crap and all that?

I play on Xbox and cant set my keys on the keyboard. I hate the standart Settings and i also would appreciate not having to play with controller. So it would be cool you could add this little feature too... Maybe just add the Menu from the PC-version also to console. I know, many Console Players also prefwr Mouse and Keyboard and it would make gaming mich more enjoyable. Since Ark: Suevival Ascended is realeasing later this year, i would appreciate if you would think about this feedback! Thanks for your time, Felixyraptor

Mods for ARK Console Editions Dear Studio Wildcard, Even if I love ARK,I have to say that its quite boring to play it on console.And because I don't have a PC,that's good enough to play ARK,I have to use a PS4 to play that cool game.I wish there was a way to mod the game on consoles,so that we can also enjoy an extended ARK with all the features of mods like CKFR,S+,Eco's mods,Pimp my home,Primal fear and so on.I'm sure I'm not alone with this wish and I'm sure all console players would love this.

I made a dedicated server on Valguero for me and some of my cousins on my Xbox series X. I now want to run the server from my older Xbox One X so that I can use the Series X for other games. I have been trying to do this for about a week now, and have written multiple posts on Reddit, LTTForum, Xbox support, etc, all to no avail. Through my own experimenting, I have now come to the conclusion that servers are not treated like normal saves and therefore are not stored in the cloud like a single player game would be, so it's not just as simple as installing Ark on the One X and running the server. Thus, I'm assuming the server is stored locally, so I'm wondering how I would go about transferring my server save. Copying/transferring the game over the network, and via an external HDD does not work.

With events for Ark 1 coming to an end, I would like to make a suggestion to add a toggle in the main menu that allows for event colors to spawn outside of events. I play on Xbox single player and I always enjoy taming creatures with unique colors during events, but now that events are no longer happening I won’t be able to seen these colorations happen again so why not add a way for us to activate these colors for creatures to spawn with?
