Community Crunch 415: Club ARK, Live Ops Update and more!
Hey Survivors,
It’s been a busy, content-packed Go Go week, so let’s dive in!
We’re thrilled that players are enjoying Club ARK. The positive feedback has been wonderful to read, and it’s fantastic to see players of all types having fun in our new social hub. We have exciting plans to enhance player customization, add more missions, events, and content releases. Your suggestions for Club ARK have been incredibly valuable and have directly influenced its development. Thank you, and please keep them coming—we’re all ears!
LiveOps
The Window’s game version is currently going through certification. Any client patch released on Console/Windows has to go through a certification process from the platform holder to make sure the game is compliant with platform requirements. We apologize for the disruption and expect we will set it live early next week. In the interim, we have disabled autodecay on structures and dinos in order to prevent further loss for affected players.
We’re planning to release balance changes to the Moonpool (big side) in North Ice Cave on The Center by the end of next week. The Moonpool has been slightly expanded, and slopes have been added. We understand how impactful small changes like this can be so we’ll monitor and make further adjustments if needed. Please note that some structures on the edge of the Moonpool may be destroyed but we’ve seen minimal impact in our test cases.
Conquest Servers
Transfers have opened on Conquest servers, introduced to ARK: Survival Ascended by Snail Games, allowing players to move characters, creatures and items between servers on the Conquest network.
If you need any support during the Conquest season, join the Conquest Enforcement's Discord.
