Scorched Earth Still Crashing. I hoped the new update would do something even if it wasn't in the patch notes but Scorched still crashes every 30 or so minutes... I haven't even had the time to SEE a Tropeo for myself because it crashes so often... I dealt with this happening on the Island as well but not as bad so I hoped I'd finally get to just play the game with Scorched being smaller and having a less variety in dinos but it seems to just be worse on this map... It literally crashes every 30ish minutes and also when you are just SE from the center of the map... It Crashes Everytime... Every... Time... This isn't a minor inconvenience... It really needs to be looked at as a priority because you can't even play it really at all without having to start over a million times to get simple things like harvesting done... I know I'm not the only person dealing with this it's just Scorched doesn't happen to be a popular map, but for those that choose to play on it we should be able to... and this is single player... There should definitely not be problems like this with the most basic way of playing it... Please pay attention to your whole game and not just the newest editions... Please fix this issue...

The Story of Ark (Refreshed) Hi all, I have decided to remake my old theory from 2 years ago since it was made before extinction. Please post anything you notice is wrong about this theory or any feedback in the comments because I'm sure lots of things are wrong. The Base Story: So, in the first game we spawn on an island with three high-tech looking obelisks and random supply crates falling out of the sky it soon becomes clear that the island can't be natural and after you defeat the bosses you can go in the control centre. You see what appears to be humans, dinosaurs and supply drops being put on the island. You also look upon the island, a dead Earth and lots of other Arks through the window. After a while you fight the Overseer and go to scorched earth. Now the console in the control centre was written in a different language but it was no created my aliens which was officially stated by Wild Card on twitter (well not stated but it was a pretty obvious hint). So, in scorched earth it's again the same story, you survive, fight the manticore boss and then go to Abberation. You survive yet again through abboreration but this time, the ark is damaged. According to the explorer notes, a tribe of survivors with tech equipment detonated a tech nuke inside the control centre of aberration. You survive in the caves because the shield does not work to protect the ark from solar radiation and at some point you fight the boss, Sir Edumund Rockwell who was an author of the explorer notes who had injected himself with element and turned into a mutated beast. After you defeat him you ascend to Earth and speed past other Arks and see a destroyed moon. The moon being destroyed was one of two single most important parts of why the arks were created. When we go to earth we appear in an artificial environment that is obviously quite old since the shield fails moments after you get there which suggests a maybe temporary loss of power after it used some energy to materialise you the player. As soon as the shield dissapears you see a burned planet with fire. (Then Extinction happens but ill go into that in the theory) The Theory: First thing to note here is that the moon is destroyed. This makes complete sense since at the end of abberation you see a lava planet but in extinction you see an ice planet. If the moon was destroyed it would mess up the Earth's gravity (thus the compass in the extinction trailer btw) and one side of the earth would be on fire and the other would be very cold. Now this story happens maybe thousands of years into the future when mankind discover a new material from space, element. They start replacing all of their technology with element and even started to make biological weapons of war, the titans although some are a bit sceptical of this technology and how safe it was. This completely backfires when, they start replacing their planetary defences, satellites and sensors. A meteor they didn't detect smashes into the earth and destroys the moon, altering the planetary rotation and turning the planet into half hell and half ice. To make matters worse most of the waste from their element technology started to infect the land. With all this chaos there was only one thing to do. Another earth-like planet had not been found so they ripped up land and using the new element technology they managed to create safe artificial environments for the best minds and warriors of humanity to inhabit. Their consciousnesses were inserted into a gem that was inserted into every one of the new homo deus bodies. A few of the homo sapiens did oversee the arks in the first years and they used many of the holograms like the ones we see in aborretion to keep track of their species and that of the homo deus. The military assets created for war from element had gotten loose in the chaos and the humans didn't have the military capabilities to kill them. They configured the arks to let humans to teleport between them and when they were considered worthy they would go down to the earth and try their best to get rid of the titan creatures. When the arks detected that the titans were all gone they would all land at the same time and drain the element. There was nothing they could do about the moon being destroyed but they could go and try to repopulate the planet. Eventually the homo sapiens had to accept their species was dying out and they were going to all die before one or more of the homo deus passed the test, got down to planet earth and killed the titans. They created the overseers which were semi-mechanical biological creatures which had instructions to keep the arks operational and the humans alive. Dinosaurs were chosen because they were tough and they would pose a huge challenge to survivors and help the chances they could kill the titans. There were a lot more predators on the island for this reason. However if they detected advanced technology and that someone had discovered element they would destroy it, the last thing they needed was the arks getting corrupted too. When the survivors destroyed the control room in aberration the overseer was killed and he could no longer stop the corruption. It corrupted the land and the ark lost it's protective shield which protected the ark from radiation. You the player managed to get through a lot of arks and got down to earth. When you killed all the titans you and Helena Walker (author of the survival notes) watch the arks descend and start purging the element from the earth. With their survival skills in different environments, the people of the arks would know how to adapt to the messed up conditions on earth. The overseers most likely deactivated themselves or died at this moment because their purpose was complete. The arks were deactivated after their purpose and the cleansing was complete and humanity got a fresh start on the earth, having enough survival skills to be able to live on this ruined planet and rebuild a once great civilisation. Sadly, the aberration ark cant land properly and it breaks apart as soon as it lands probably killing everyone on it and all the creatures, probably for the better. In time this ark was also purified of element by the other arks. At the end of the cutscene we hear the distinctive roar of Rockwell, who will stop at nothing to cause more chaos. We don't know if the arks are powerful enough to cleanse the element from rockwell but if they are not then he will most likely return. The ark most likely respawned him like it respawns the player character. (This really isn't important and obvious but I find it so cool that the rebuilding program on earth scans our gem thing on our arm and identifies who we are and what ark we came from lol). Final thing i wanted to touch upon is Ark: Genesis. Rockwell has returned, he hacked into the simulation and started corrupting the humans. He then grabbed you with a tenticle at the end. We know almost nothing about genisis but ill keep an eye on this and make a theory about it when part 2 comes out. Thank you very much for reading, please give me feedback and tell me if there is anything wrong with this theory or if I've overlooked anything! Edit: When you see the flashing red light in the first game around the island ark on the hologram indicating the overseer is dead you do not see that aberrations overseer is also dead because the ark thinks rockwell is the overseer thus the hologram and the flashing red light we see around aberration's ark when we kill rockwell. It makes sense because both rockwell and the overseers are (in my opinion) biological creatures which have been very extensively modified by element.

Scorched Earth Review Scorched earth was a great expansion pack for it's time however new people are introduced to ark all the time and times have changed so is it still worth your money? 1. Items - the items introduced into scorched earth are numerous for example the Adobe building tools are a very nice addition however everything within this topic can be used within Ragnarok making the expansion pack falter in this category. 2. Creatures - This expansion pack does have quite nice creatures ranging from the jerboa to the 3 Wyverns and they are nice additions into the game however that being said this topic does not hold up due to ragnarok. Ragnarok when on release took many of the creatures including the manticore and the only exception is the Phoenix, the Phoenix is a very nice creature as it looks decent and has pretty useful mechanics and abilities however it's extremely rare and it's not enough to hold up this category similarly to the equipment and even it could use some touching up on. 3. Music - this is actually one of the high points for the expansion pack as the music is very nice and fitting, the music helps better immerse the feel of the expansion and doesn't take away too much. 4. Map - the map is the only thing that's truly been left alone and in this aspect is probably its highest point as the map does have very nice looking caves and locations for example the world scar and the manticore city are probably the maps most notable areas however at the end of the day you are just in one big desert and it can start to feel the same as time goes on as there isn't too much variety in the biomes. 5. Story - the story while often sidelined specifically with scorched does have significance as it shows what happens when people aren't doing what the ark is intended for and just goes genocidal by creating the wyverns and mantis to push the humans to the brink. However this is another thing that hurts scorched earth as it lacks a proper ending and not showing our transition between scorched earth to aberration which is a massive slide against the expansion pack. 6. Ways to Improve - they need to do a complete overhaul of scorched instead of focusing on mod maps they should focus on fixing scorched earth in a remake of sorts, I've discussed this before and will leave a link to the discussion in the comments below on my own take for what they could do. Overall Score - this expansion pack was a fantastic product for it's time however as it stands now it had aged horribly due to the lack of care for the map from the devs. There is barely anything unique that it has to offer other than some nice music, a unique map and 1 creature and it does not help that wildcard flat out REFUSE to go back and support the expansion pack by adding new creatures, items, and areas. It also shows the lack of care from the devs as they knew ragnarok had all the expansion creatures and items in it yet they still let ragnarok kill scorched earth, this topped off with the fact they refuse to fix a product that is clearly incomplete to everyone but them as shown with ragnarok and as shown with the lack of a true ending. Final Rating - 1/5 avoid at all cost it is definitely not worth your money as it has very little to offer and I'd suggest staying away from this at all costs and I'd literally recommend any of the other expansion packs over this INCOMPLETE train wreck. I promise the other reviews will be more positive than this and it can only go up from here as this is easily the worst expansion pack they've ever released if you can even call it a expansion pack anymore.

Expansion Reviews I've had this idea In the back of my head for a really long time and i want to try it out here. Honestly I don't see reviews for the expansion packs often and I wanted to make afew reviews because there's such a lack of them. I'll be trying out scorched earth first as abit of a test run and discussing all the things that it adds such as the creatures and items and their quality/usefulness and etc and I'll eventually come up with a rating from 1 to 5 combining all the aspects I've reviewed and ways I think they could have been improved and discuss whether it's worth your money or not.

Foritude on scorched earth Hey does any of you guys know how much fortitude you have to have for surviving regular scorched earth?(that does not include heatwaves and sandstorms) also if you want to ware flak or riot (because hey got a negative heat protection)

Unable to use any DLC I have punched both aberrations and scorched earth, but neither are able to be launched, online or single player. Both have a 0% next to them. I can’t even select them. What do I do?

Server Hopping Can anyone explain the best possible way to server hop between the island and scorched earth? I really want to get a wyvern. But I've been going crazy about how to attempt it, also I'm just scared that I'll mess up and lose a dino I cant replace. Any advice would be helpful as to what kind of flying mount, items, tames, etc to utilize while server hopping to capture/steal eggs.

Despite having the "No Dino Download" setting unchecked, transfers are not working at obelisks/drops/tek transmitters. Basically, everything works fine during the upload; dinos get uploaded, and any items I upload as well get uploaded. When it comes to downloading, however, I can get all the items i uploaded as well as my character. In fact, the option to download the dino from the other map is there. However, upon downloading, the name of the dino on the transfer menu disappears (implying the transfer happened), but there's no dino in sight.

Any updates or dlc on the Nintendo switch? Hi i have a somehow. Complicated question to ask if there are any of the above dlc such as abberation and the like as well as updates on the Nintendo switch in the future or there are none due to the switch having a low graphics of it's processors and latent load times?

Seeking A RP Server So I have been playing ark for about a year I switched from an xbox to a playstation 4. I had a really good roleplay server on their and would really like to get back into it. If anyone knows any good roleplay servers please let me know. I am also looking for new people to play with my discrod is QueenOctavia#6749 if you have any questions for me message my discord.

Prim+ scorched earth is crashing I play arc on the PS4 my favorite map is scorched earth but it’s now crashing with primitive plus is there a fix????

SE bugs since genesis/update last night Private dedicated Xbox playing scorched earth. Since the update finished late last night, loot drops came back. Yay. Until I went to one and it instantly makes the server Xbox close ark, which then kicks everyone off. Accessing obelisks and two transmitter does the same thing. anyone else having this issue? single player on SE did not have that issue when I tried a few minutes ago.

Update Broke Entire Game!!! The Island Now Raining Bosses, Scorched Earth Nuked! Since the 1/10/2020 Update Here are the issues I'm having so far. On The Island whenever I use an obelisk to fight a Guardian I now get teleported...…..NOT to the Guardians Arena but...… IN THE SKY WITH MY DINO'S!!!!!! Literally Teleports My Dino's, Me, and the Boss to the very center of The Island, Coordinates 50 Lat. 50 Lon. where we all freefall from the SKY until we hit the ground. In most cases it's instant death for my character and my T-Rex survives with the boss landing on our heads. Sometimes the boss even Vanishes into thin air after landing. Not sure what's going on here but The Island is now raining down Players, Dino's, and Guardians when you activate an obelisk. Oh, and that's not all! I moved over to Scorched Earth only to find that I was instantly killed along with ALL MY TAMED DINOS, and ALL MY STRUCTURES WERE COMPLETELY DESTROYED!!!!!!!!! All that was left were inventory bags where my structures USED to be. Is anyone having these problems? If so is there any way to fix them? Any help is appreciated BC my game is unplayable ATM.

The Island is the only map that gets supply drops and I can’t get to manticore Okay this is my first post so sorry if I’m doing anything wrong, but I’ve noticed everybody saying that they get OSD on the other maps and not just The Island, but I only get them on Island. As for the bosses, I’ve tried going to the manticore arena after having beaten all the bosses on Island on Gamma, but whenever I try to use the Obelisk it does the count down as normal but then it loads me fifty feet above the ground in the middle of the map so I fall to my death. Am I doing something wrong? I haven’t tried the other bosses on the other maps yet, but I wanted to do them in order. I’ve tried to find anybody else with those two problems, but I’m finding nothing. Does anybody know what’s going on with my supply drops and manticore boss?

Wetter unsichtbar Hallo liebes Forum, mein Freund und ich spielen seit Januar auf der Scorched Earth Map am PC. Leider hören wir zwar das Wetter und wir bekommen auch die dazugehörigen Effecte, aber das Wetter ist völlig unsichtbar. Also man sieht keinen regen, keinen Sandsturm etc. Den Bug gab es wohl schonmal 2015. Ich habe auch auf den offiziellen Ark-Servern geschaut, da sieht das Wetter genauso aus. Nur in meinem Single-Player Spiel sieht das Wetter bei scorched earth normal aus. Ich habe, zum testen, auch einmal theisland geladen auf dem Server, dort funktioniert das Wetter auch ohne Probleme. Kennt Jemand das Problem? Liegt es an einer Einstellung? Kann ich etwas daran verbessern? Oder liegt es an Ark selbst? Da es ebenfalls auf den offiziellen-Servern so ist, glaube ich, es liegt an der Ark-Version :/ Vielen Dank für eure Hilfe. Ich hoffe ein Dev/Admin sieht das und kann es weiterleiten, ist schon schade, dass das coole Wetter nicht zu sehen ist :D Mit freundlichen Grüßen Dracodine

Taggless, Levelless, Baby Dino Following Me Hi there! So I just came back from taming a couple of Equus, to see this, what looks like to be a T-rex baby, following me. There is no name, level, baby/juvenile/adolescent tag, nothing. It can't be mine, because I don't have Rexes yet. I can't Imprint, damage or get rid of it, it's to fast. Has anybody experienced something like this too? Because I can't find anything anywhere.

Missing rain on SE The rain on scorched Earth isn't showing an animation. You can hear the sounds and your water/crops refill but water resivours and morellatops do not replenish water.. anyone else having this problem?

Hey, my name is Zack. I was just wondering, What dlc is the best in your opinion

NO WYVERNS, NO EGGS, NO SUPPLY DROPS. SP BROKEN Here's the deal I've been playing ark for months now, and it had become my favorite game, i know this is not the point, but i haven't had any problems with the game till there. First, i play on single player, love to have the map and dinos for me. So the first frustating bug started when, near the red woods i closed the game, and when i got back my character just died, i never found his body neither my pteranodon who desapeared as well, lost a really good ascendant gear. Tried to go under the map and above to the limit, still no sucsess. I know somethimes bugs happens and besides the desapointing i decided to move on to ragnarok. After hours of gameplay i went to where the wyverns live and.... where are the wyverns? there were not a single one, i tried everything i could guys, cleaned the cache, reinstalled the game, tried in other profiles, used the "destroywilddinos" command several times and still no wyverns. Again i acepted my fate and moved to scorched earth, again, several hours of gameplay and then i realized, no supply drops, neither in the desert nor in the center of the map, and when i went to the wyverns nest, well there were wyverns there, but after thousands of runs i noticed that eggs where not spawning. Whatever i did was useless to fix this problems, for what i've seached many people had problem with the wyverns and eggs, but very few with the supply drops. I wanted to know if anyone had the same issues and for God's sake, if someone from the suport or whatever is reading this, please, fix this game, fix this problems, it's been hours of frustation and tring to fix things that you shoud be aware of. And i really what to keep playing single player, no intention of going to pve or pvp online. Somethimes it looks like the SP is there for nothing besides make your day worse. It is frustrating, to buy a game, that catches you, that makes you wanna play more and more, but suddently it just starts to stop working as it should and you just can't find a solution, If theres not suport for the SP, then the game shouldn't have it. I really apologize for the text (and maybe useless details), it's been a really bad experience, i just had to say it.

No Deep Sea Loot Crates or Supply Drops Just started playing SE on Xbox One. I’ve been to all 18 sets of coords for the deep sea loot crates yet have found none. Also have not seen one supply crate drop. Additionally, have been playing a couple days now and have not seen any wyvern nests in the scar
