  1. I have ark survival ascended on windows and pvp servers are not popping up but pve servers are.


    I have just installed the windows version of ark asa for windows and I have noticed that I cannot access offical pvp servers at all. I know that the official servers are active because I can join pve just not pvp. I have read through some forms and it appears that they may have disabled pvp for windows because batti protection or whatever its called cannot be used to stop cheaters. Is this the case? I paid for this game and I want access to everything I paid for.

    :)

    Do you prefer Pvp or Pve or both?!

    I'm typically more of a PvE player especially in games like Ark: Survival evolved. Even when PvP opportunities are available,

    I tend to try and help people rather than fight them. I was playing in a server where people were spreading a disease to anyone they could just to annoy people and keep them from playing on the server so I ended up becoming the doctor of the server by making
    cures for anyone and everyone. Even the people spreading the disease. Although with them it was more by force than choice.

    Knocking people out with tranquilizers and force-feeding them medicine is a good example of how I can switch between PvP and PvE whenever I need to.

    I enjoy staying more on the PvE side of things, but that doesn't mean I'm not a force to be reckoned with when someone tries to mess with me or other players just minding their own business.

    So to answer the original question, I'd have to say both, but I prefer PvE.

    Can someone on a xbox series x join a non dedicated server created by a pc player on Ark Surival Ascended? And vice versa? If so? How?

    Hello ! I'm Aymeric, an independent advisor, and I'm here to help !

    Cross play is enabled on ARK Survival Ascended, but only in dedicated servers.

    Non-dedicated servers do not support cross play at the moment.

    Please let me know if you have any other question !

    Depends on what you are looking for in the game, ark for example, i see plenty of people raiding, trolling, griefing on pvp servers again thats its intended purpose.

    Pve is better suited for people who take their time and seek a more organised fight on those servers.

    Depends what suits you best.

    I have a linked account on the Xbox series one doesn't work with Ark survival ascended

    Also, when we try to enter the online server it tell that I need a online access but, the Xbox is linked and I can download gamepass games or play online on other game. It's only with Ark survival ascended

    How to avoid PvP

    I originally played PvP servers in WoW but eventually found I preferred PVE to PvP and transferred all my characters to a PVE server. Not all PvPers are 12 year olds but a lot of them are. I just got sick of the full guilds of them doing nothing but making
    a nuisance of themselves.
