An emergency maintenance took place at 09:00 AM UTC which resulted in all our Official Servers being brought offline whilst we investigated a technical exploit. As a result of the exploit, our Official NA PVP Network, The Kraken’s Maw, had received a rollback to approximately 05:45 AM UTC specifically as we were able to backtrack precisely when the issue started to occur with our logging system. All other networks were brought back online with no changes. The damage done was caused by a technical exploit which we have now protected against, no administrator accounts were compromised in this situation. We apologize for the inconvenience and we thank for your patience and understanding during this time.
In regards to action taken, multiple accounts have been banned in relation to this, by ourselves and BattlEye, though the evidence and our extensive logging indicates that this group does not have any specific ties to any one company, but are instead targeting streamers...
Read moreAn update regarding the Rejuvenate buff; even after death it still persists on your character, however you may not see it in the UI. Just relog (may have to do it more than once), and it'll show in your UI. We're investigating why it isn't properly replicating to clients.
We've an issue with the Rejuvenated buff at the moment which makes it not persist through death. I'd recommend not going after the Fountain until it's resolved in an upcoming (hopefully minor) update. Unless of course you wish to remove the 'old age' debuff, but I am not sure if we'll be able to retroactively restore the rejuvenated buff for anyone that loses it presently. No ETA on that atm.
Will check this out, theoretically should be possible to solve it.
This should be fixed now with the latest update. Please let me know if you're still having problems
Regarding elephants, the change took place as specific-resource weight reduction was not something that they were intended to do (esp due to how they get passed ship weights), however, we'll be re-balancing the base weight of all tamable creatures early next week.
I'll flag up the issues regarding OpenSSL and CURL. It would be good to know what version of Linux you guys are using that is running into these issues, and whether you're able to host ARK servers on those same operating systems.
Just to follow up on this, companies that are involved in cheating are risking themselves to wipe. We wiped 2 more companies within the last 8 hours, 1 on NA PVP and 1 on EU PVP and will wipe more as necessary.
Following up with the link to the global banlist of Steam 64ID's: http://atlasdedicated.com/pc/banlist.txt
This updates with each ban.
Thanks guys, I'm out for now
There has always been a public banlist. Some of the Community who played ARK (amongst others) are familiar with it. We will be sharing it for those who are unsure as to where to find it soon.
As a team, we take these reports seriously. We are investigating multiple companies for their possible relation to a small group of players who have recently broken our Code of Conduct on our Official Network through the use of an illegitimately obtained admin account and game exploits (which have been patched in prior weeks). Multiple accounts have been banned in relation to this, by ourselves and BattlEye, though the evidence indicates that this group does not have any specific ties to any one company, but are instead targeting streamers and large or well known companies. We will continue our investigation and will take action on all involved accounts and companies immediately.
