Ahhhhhh. We should have fixed the level up text/icon notifications with this major, damn. We'll have to get it next time -- at least the text on the top of the screen.

An update was released for Mac that brought them up to v313, so this issue has been resolved.

Cool, just making sure it went through. Sorry about the delay on that.

Are you still having issues connecting via Mac on EGS?

To note Jat this was all possible on PS4, and filmed a day prior. Perhaps console haven't received a patch yet?

The fixed aspects of this aren't on console yet but will be when we patch the client next, however there are some things we've still to tackle so I appreciate the report :)

Great to see this has reached you Jat. We're you aware of all of the exploits shown?

Partially, we still have some things we need to iterate on (but were already looking into)

If we were to do it, a server config would probably be more appropriate if one does not exist already (we've an extensive list so I can't remember em all). Though not sure if we'd do something like this.

About to find out 🙃. So far looks like our recent PC changes has made this less effective. We'll keep playing around with it but so far the early indication looks like you won't be able to get foundation support to build out something that truly floats (or anything more than pillars/fence supports -- which if one piece demos, everything would collapse except what has support).

Will keep investigating tho.

Edit: Yep some of this has been fixed, but not all of it 😢

This is the general idea. Players using EGS have to be authorised by their backend to connect to our/other ARK servers. It's like when Steam is down and you're not able to play certain games because you're not able to be authed, or if Xbox Live is down, etc.

Silverlining is that this one seems to be intermittent so there's a chance to get on and usually things like this can affect many titles & systems, so it's usually a priority to get investigated and resolved as soon as possible.

We've also been able to identify some new crashes caused by this so we're fixing those up right now.

It looks like Epic are having some authentification issues at the moment which reasonably could prevent you from being able to join online servers. Here's a link to their status page:

https://status.epicgames.com/

A temporary work around for now is to continue relaunching and closing the application, sometimes the auth does succeed and you should be able to see the button, hopefully they'll be able to resolve their issue soon.


Edit: Looks like their servers are back online as of 2 hours ago so hopefully you guys are able to see the Join button right away now :)

Hey, I work on the game. You can reach me directly at Jat @ studiowildcard.com (without the spaces) or DM me here, whichever is convenient for you. Thank you for reporting the issue, we'll definitely want to get this patched.

Edit: Tonight's server update (313.23) will fix the crash.

If updating windows didn't resolve the issue for you, you can try this which has worked for others:

  • sign out of store
  • restart pc
  • sign into store
  • launch the title from its store page

There was a bug that came in when we introduced our breeding performance changes that would have caused this in some cases. It was fixed, but the fix was subsequently lost during the weekend of the Summer Bash launch on console when we were dealing with all those technical issues. We reintroduced the relevant fixes on the 1st of July with a serverside patch, so it should be good going forward now, just won't be retroactive. Unofficial servers should make sure they're using .18 for both PS4 + Xbox to avoid this problem.
