Good Afternoon,
Studio Sirens remains dedicated to providing updates as issues are being logged or addressed. We are primarily utilizing the #「❗」bug-reports」channel on the Official ARK: Aquatica Discord. For the sake of identifying issues, please provide as much information as possible on your report for visibility and accurate reporting (ie: version number, platform and all applicable logs or information).
Current top priority issues:
Continued FPS and Level Optimization
Server Transfers for Official Servers
Core Functionality
In the meantime, the ‘preaquatica’ branch will remain available.
2X rates have been enabled on weekends for official servers!
We would like to acknowledge and thank our modding community for the extended wait on the updated DevKit. Today, we will be releasing the updated DevKit on the Epic Games Store platform. This will provide the tools needed to tackle compatibility issues for affected mods on the latest version of ARK: Survival Evolved.
From today’s update and forward, to maintain crossplay and prevent version mismatching, we will be looking to patch ARK: Survival Evolved on Steam and the Epic Games Store simultaneously.
The team is aware of long loading times on fresh clients related to primalgamedata, this is a complex issue that is considered a work in progress.
