Good morning.
Yes, you lovely savages! The Crunch will be posted in a little over 30 minutes by the ever-awesome @ComplexMinded
I just eat pocky and boss people around.
Less than an hour
My body is ready
@survivetheark Yes, we'll have event rates running, you'll have to hold out for the Crunch for the multipliers ๐
leak: there's cake
No ETA on Crystal Isles for console as yet, we'll share more specifics in the future. Sorry console gang.
5th Anniversary Event starts tomorrow!
๐ฅPC: 11am EDT ๐ฅConsole: 4pm EDT
Tropeognathus will also be available on all platforms and the stunning Crystal Isles will drop along with the event on PC at 11am EDT.
Stay posted for the Community Crunch in the morning for more info!
Okay, putting together some info on tomorrow's launch and event, keep an eye on @survivetheark
Ced will have the Crunch out in the morning with everything enquiring minds need to know.
Nobody: You: launchwhenlaunchwhenlaunchwhenlaunchwhen
Let's talk about what we do know. We know there's a new map. We know there's an event and we know there's a dino. So what don't we know exactly? The rates of the event and the time the event starts?
๐
A little insight: Sometimes when games or big updates come out, companies will work with marketing agencies who will feed that info to the press. When that happens, sometimes the press gets to break the info as an 'exclusive'.
It may prevent you from sharing info until they have
Tomorrow it begins. The community crunch won't go out until tomorrow morning but it will entail all the details.
Getting the details the day of is a pity, I know, but those are the cards we have. We're all prepping and excited for a pretty incredible milestone.
Maintenance and redeployment complete. Thank you for flying ARK airlines.
In approximately 15 minutes, we will be taking a portion of our North America ARK Official Server Network down for about 15 minutes of maintenance. This maintenance only impacts some NA servers and other regions will remain online during this time.
Will keep you posted, team.
@ComplexMinded @subatomicmintz
No, we aren't wiping the servers ๐
It's a new week. Let's press that RESET button and try this again. It's still #PositiveVibes. It should be an exciting week!
I'll let you know if the plan changes.
The build has been submitted and is now in cert. Now we wait. Typically, this can take a few days, sorry team.
Yes, I recognise the irony of Wildcard meeting an initial ETA by accident.
OKAY?!
Wait, this means the update was ready? Weird.
Unfortunately, the Anniversary event client-build (now intended to be released next week) was automatically released on Win10 due to the previously-set scheduling. We're currently working on decrementing the build and will keep our Win10 players posted
Once we verify server start up is smooth, we'll be deploying a server-side update to all platforms that will include various hotfixes along with setting PreventOfflinePvPInterval (PvE ORP timer) to 10 sec and the prevention of teleporting corrupted dinos to mitigate PvE griefing
