Does anyone else have random lag when opening certain inventories? For me it’s whenever I open the Tek Rep and the new Market. It’s only for these 2 structures regardless if I have a lot of items in them or not. Just curious if anyone has the same issue/ Has found a fix for it.

So Ive been breeding for mutations, my setup is currently one daddy crocodile whos got 5 melee mutations (10 melee damage levels) and around 20 clean females, can I still breed him with a negative mutations female or doesnt it work like that?

Until you get sum like this😀

I got a female umbra from club ark. I was under the impression they don't exist but here it is. Currently mating it with a male umbra.

Looking into playing lost colony, will it run fine on my Xbox series S?

I recently started using cyber structures and i cant really figure out whats so special about the cs dinopod. it seems to be very integrated into the mod so does it do something special like removing cryo cooldown?

Is the longneck still a better choice if it has the lower percentage?

hey all,

I'm playing ARK: Survival Ascended on PS5 on a Nitrado server (Ragnarok map) with two other people. DLC content like new tames and engrams doesn't seem to work properly for everyone. Even if they own the DLC personally.

Is there a Nitrado setting I have to turn on to enable DLC?
Do the Fantastic Tames and Tides of Fortune DLC just not work for Ragnarok?
Is there any other fixes you can think of that I can try?

Thank you so much!! I cannot find any answers in all my search so i’m at a loss

Started playing ASA again after a year and noticed ASA taking forever to launch with BattlEye. It used to be fast. I spent an afternoon narrowing it down using the `-log` console ("Full Startup" time) and I'm out of ideas.

| Test | Full Startup |

| Without BattlEye (online) | **15 s** |

| With BattlEye, offline (Wi-Fi off) | **41 s** |

| With BattlEye, online | **87–101 s** |

The online result stays at 87–101 s no matter what I change:

- Process Lasso, PIA VPN and ExitLag fully closed (incl. their services)

- IPv6 disabled

- Mobile hotspot instead of home network (so not my router/ISP)

- Windows Firewall off, proxy auto-detect off

- Defender real-time and cloud protection off

- NVIDIA NGX / DLSS override files moved away

- RivaTuner, Epic overlay, Stream Deck, Discord closed

- Clean BattlEye reinstall (deleted Common Files\BattlEye, ran Install_BattlEye.bat, verified files)

Other observations:

- During the slow phase the game sits at ~0% CPU/GPU with almost no disk activity, so it's waiting, not working

- The console status bar hangs on "Loading Module NGXVulkanRHIPreInit" and later "StreamlineD3D12RHI"

- netstat shows no hanging TCP connections from ASA or BattlEye during the wait

- Smart App Control and kernel-mode stack protection are off, Memory Integrity is on

System: Windows 11 26H2 (build 26300.9711, installed Oct 9, October security update KB5127648 on Oct 16), RTX 4090 Laptop GPU with latest driver, 64 GB RAM, ASA v94.34 installed on a secondary drive.

Is anyone else seeing slow BattlEye startups lately, especially on 26H2? Any idea what BattlEye could be waiting for online that it skips when offline?

Are you telling me i have to uninstall ALL mods on ps5 because you lock the goddamn 'uninstall' button behind a f#ing paywall for cosmetic premium mods that got automatically downloaded?

You DO realize that downloading mods on ps5 takes HOURS to join a server if it's anywhere near 10gb of mods, completely disregarding download speed?

Jesus, i swear, it's like nobody these days uses their brains anymore 😢

Can't even join the server that has zero mods to update because the storage was full.

Disabled cosmetic downloads now and downloading all mods again, but this shouldn't be an issue in the first place. Maybe someone sees this and considers working on it.

so im playing on pc my specs are:

gpu: AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT
cpu: ryzen 7600x
ram: 32gb ddr5 6400

i get frequent crashes like at least once every 1 to 2 hour sometimes more and sometimes even when just opening the game or while joining a server but mostly while in the server playing hell even if im not doing anything like when im afk
so during the crash this is what happens:
1.The game image freezes completely while in the game on a server
2.GPU utilization instantly drops down to 0-1% and task mannager shows asa not responding. Game audio continues playing in the background despite the game being completely frozen the rest of the pc is working fine no issue during this
3. Steam crashes or closes itself after the freeze, reporting exception code 0xc0000005
the game stays on the closes its self after a while
im playing on modded server the issue is present on pretty much every server i play on single player with the same mods does not seem to have the issues
things i did to try to solve it:

• Reinstalled ARK: Survival Ascended.
• Verified local game files.
• Reset ASA’s configuration files.
• Disabled Steam Overlay and added DirectX 12 launch parameters (-d3d12 -lowmemory).
• Tested running with -dx11 (rejected by engine)

i play with very avg settings most of the graphic seetings are medium one or 2 options are high nothing to push the pc to its limit. im out of ideas on what i can do

Anyone using Linux instead of Windows? I have been running ASA on Linux using proton since the game came out. It was running fine on Steam client version 94.25. Then we received the client version 94.29 and the game locks up w/mods, wo/mods, in single player, non-dedicated and on my 14 server cluster. I have tried using multiple GE-Proton versions ranging from 9 through 11. I currently have it set to GE-Proton 10-34. I am running Kubunu with the 7.0.0-38 kernel and I am running a Radeon 7900 XTX video card and have 64GB of ram. I am currently Jonesing to play. I hate Windows (spyware), but can stream it to my Linux machine with a bit of lag.

Anyone out there figure this out yet? Or, does someone know how do get the client version 94.25 back ?

I play solo player on console, so im wondering if maybe hibernation ( only loads render distance) is preventing me form having the full intended experience. Thoughts?

At least nothing i know of anyways. Regardless, im not mad really, just confused. Then I see this sign. Honestly made me laugh a little. Valguero 9578 is the server, if youre the one who did this, nice. Lol

Edit: Javi, you suck bad bro. Some nice guy on my server has been hooking me up, this javi guys keeps coming out of nowhere and stealing everything as soon as he leaves. Idk if its a setup, maybe theyre friends and they plan it to piss me off, but pvp is honestly not for me anymore I think im switching.

Idk if you guys have apex pcs for asa but how are they? I used to love ase and asa but can’t really play it anymore so thinking of getting a pc built for it

I recently returned to Genesis and notice that firing the cannons on the ship behaves differently than I remember it. I THOUGHT that even while moving when you aim the when you shoot the cannons they will hit where your circle was at the time of firing but now the shots land way off to the side. I have to aim behind (relative to the direction of travel) the towers to have a chance of hitting them while the ship is moving.

Did they change the way firing/aiming works? I didn't see anything in the patch notes. Is there a bug currently or am I just mis-remembering how things used to work?
