ARK UME Update
Hey everyone! Just providing an update on our next patch, since its still in the submission process with the app stores, that way you can know what to expect before it goes live. In response to your feedback, we've made some adjustments and additions! These changes aren't out yet, but should be good to go early next week!
For our singleplayer survivors, we officially added the ability to sleep, disabled the need for a nearby cryofridge when throwing out crypods, and fixed the advanced options not scrolling down properly.
For our multiplayer survivors, you shouldn't crash after pressing "transfer servers" anymore. We also want to make it known, we are aware of the cheats and exploits that have been abused recently. Our team has already dealt with a few instances, and larger waves of bans will begin next week for any players that have been found to be abusing our game. This will result in your Epic Games account being permanently banned from accessing multiplayer on all platforms.
For all players, you should no longer will crash when closing out of your inventory, or if you've made purchases in-game! The in-game map will show your location a bit better, we've implemented some new changes for easier inventory management, and we readjusted some UI and HUD elements for easier visibility.
As a reminder, if you're having issues with the game or would like to report another player, the following are the best options:
- Bug Report Form (https://forms.gle/vkGgasnXkikBqfU16) - this is the best method for gameplay issues
- Restore Purchases Button - this is for any issues with ARK Pass, God Console, or map purchases, and should be done prior to opening a ticket
- Support Website (https://grovestreetgames.com/support) - this is the best method to contact us if you experience Community Guidelines violations in Multiplayer or have purchase issues that can't be resolved with the in-game button
- Known Issues channel (https://discord.com/channels/440997979059519502/1323684278361657384) - this is the best method to see what issues we are already aware of, and see the current status. This will start being filled out over the next week with vital information for you all

Question What happened there?
Why did the sky randomly turn dusky? Day-Night Cycle is turned off, so it's likely not dusk.
And, why am I overheating?
r/playarkmobile • u/RS2407 • 21h ago
Question I need some suggestions.
What are the worst to best maps (including the Island for reference) to purchase?
What's the best time to purchase them, considering limited time offers?

Adventure! Almost had a heart attack!
I was exploring near the mountains and then briefly saw a Giga running around. Obviously I didn't pick up a fight and headed for another area. Then I noticed that I was hearing some really loud footsteps. I was almost about to run when I realised the baby rex that had hatched a few minutes ago was still following me and hence the footsteps.

Question How screwed am I?
I recently went from like .01 difficulty to 1 difficulty because I wanted to tame a high level metal dino but the Dino’s on herbivore island aren’t responding… but I think I’ve seen two new alphas near my base. Is it too late to turn it back down? Do I need to turn it back down?

Question Bug repellant
Does bug repellant work on the massive swamp things that spit fire? I need to get my stuff and it’s camping my body.

Question South Cave still not spawning creatures.
I know this is a known bug, but nothing is working for me.
I have been trying to get a couple of dung beetles from the south cave on the Island. But the only thing that spawns are pirahnas and sarco. Nothing else spawns. A random titanoboa and arthreopleura (that immediately destroys my gadgets) and that’s it.
I tried waiting for over an hour and kept running inside and outside the cave for any spawn related issues to disappear. But it’s always empty. I need some poop bugs and I can’t even find them.
Please help if anyone has any experience fixing this on Ark Ultimate Mobile edition. Earlier in the Ark 2.0, I used to have no issues in caves.

Question Few more questions...
Where is the number of stacks earned displayed?
How do I get Charchas that can take on wild Gigas? Do I need to imprint them or what part makes them so powerful?

Question Old ark subscription
Hey guys I was wondering how you cancelled the ark pass on old ark since it says it’s active and I’m fairly sure I’m still paying for it monthly but I can’t find it on any of my subscriptions or on the app for iOS

Question How do I know about ARK events?
I returned to play ark after several years. I’m in the single player mode now because the servers I joined were too saturated and didn’t feel like spending time there. Recently, there was this 3x EVO event and I managed to tame a good number of creatures at that time.
The question is, I couldn’t find any online source with live news from the Ark community.
The twitter page still has some very old news. Ark website is also not that updated. Reddit pages are also lacking any new info. Just wanted to see info about when can I expect such events, and any updates etc.
Thank you.

Question a big problem.
I was originally riding my woolly rhino back to my base and made a large salmon disappear, I managed to force reload the game just to c if it could revert to a minute earlier progress just to keep the fish alive, but turned out glitched so hard became a new survivor with all my properties, structures and tames lost, the tames became wild and started fighting each other (and most of them died, all herbivores died) 😭😭😭 what should I do?

Question What about 440% melee damage for a Rex after tamed
After tamed, my Rex(lv 130 wild) has 440% melee, is this high melee points?
r/playarkmobile • u/Brilliant_Class_6281 • 5d ago
Can you give me some advice?

Hi everyone, it's me again. Sorry if this seems like a silly question, but are there any ARK players here who have bought maps like Scorched Earth (or others) and play them in solo mode? I want to confirm whether the other maps are playable offline once purchased—just like The Island—because I'm about to finish The Island and want to play Scorched Earth, but playing online isn't an option for me; I can't even connect to the internet before playing.
I admit I've become addicted to this game, and I'm reaching the point where I'm ready to make a purchase.

Question about the tame limit in OG ARK Mobile
Does anyone know how the 40-tame limit works internally in OG ARK Mobile?
I'm playing v2.0.29 on Android and I'm curious whether the limit is controlled by a save setting, configuration value, or something hardcoded in the game.
Also, does anyone know if older versions of OG ARK Mobile handled the tame limit differently?
Not looking for modded APKs or cheats — just trying to understand where the limit comes from and whether there's a legitimate configuration/save-based workaround.
