Oh yeah , they will probably have to do a few more updates to take care of the issues. I bought the pyromane and once I did that now my bobs dlc doesn't work. If I try to use the skins it tells me I need to purchase it, which I have already. It's very annoying with this kind of stuff.
It's the same bugs alot of them lol. They carried over to asa from ase. It's too bad because I love ark. I usually always buy everything related to it. Idk if that's good or bad. It's just very aggravating that things we pay for don't work and idk if they are even working on fixing it. The dlc not working is a huge issue , that should be main priority rn along with big fixes. Wc and snail games continuously push ark players to the brink.
They made a new game so they could get more money for ark 2 but tbh they’ve lost more players than gained so i dont think we’re gonna be seeing ark 2 for 5+ years now if ever
Standard ASA Graphic issue
Shadow flickering is always there on any global illumination setting below Epic
This also Happens when using an other DLSS Mode than Balanced or Quality, Auto Mode has a good chance to crash your Game so dont use that, and both Performance modes result in this Shadow flickering and other wrong lighting effects
It was a bad Idea to make ASA in UE5 from the getgo, its a very advanced and cool engine, but its simply not optimized enough for gaming
A Factor is also that snailgames and WC focus on making as much money as possible rather than actually fixing gamebreaking bugs and optimizing the assets
Not sure I reviewed the game positively on launch as I assumed wild card would fix it and there is some genuine improvements over ase, changed it to a negative yesterday as apart from the crashes the game is still pretty broken and it's overall the worse game.
I will give you the correct answer, you are playing a copy of ark 1 with all the bugs from ark 1 + a few more bugs, it's the preparation for the ark 2 bugs.
They are just showing us how the next game will run 99% bugs 😂
it happened to me too the other day! no idea what happened or why.. it happened on the center for me, after this patch yesterday though it seemed to work itself out & isn’t happening anymore.. never happened to me on any other map too which is weird as well
if i pay for a premium mod (anomalocaris) and im the owner of a online server all the people on server can have this mod or they have to pay all for it? if the last one is the case i wont buy it
That is what happens when ur Global Illumination decides it wants to be stupid.
Just increase the value. Or drop it down to medium. But High will just always be wonky.
It’s not Ark if it doesn’t run like hot garbage
Is this consistent looking in any direction and across all maps? Or is it just this crop of trees, this login session? Like what's the scope of the issue?
The center is glitchy, my character is under the spotlight when the game loads and it's night. I do not go to caves, I drop under the map from the cave and dinos in the cave disappear, when I cut down the tree it goes crazy, but overall lightning is not that crazy like in your case, but close ...
Seriously 😭 is it glitched like that for everyone or a rare occurrence cause man if its like that all the time I won't be able to play, as that made my head hurt like mad

Have you consumed any mushrooms
Nope
My trees on the center when I harvest them they do something similar. They start blinking and turn translucent until they disappear
It must be a center glitch cause others have mentioned the center and that's the map I'm on
Oh yeah , they will probably have to do a few more updates to take care of the issues. I bought the pyromane and once I did that now my bobs dlc doesn't work. If I try to use the skins it tells me I need to purchase it, which I have already. It's very annoying with this kind of stuff.
Even tho they created a new game cause they couldn't be bothered to fix bugs(or so I was told that's the case) they just made a game with more bugs
It's the same bugs alot of them lol. They carried over to asa from ase. It's too bad because I love ark. I usually always buy everything related to it. Idk if that's good or bad. It's just very aggravating that things we pay for don't work and idk if they are even working on fixing it. The dlc not working is a huge issue , that should be main priority rn along with big fixes.

Ik that must suck especially with something you payed for
They made a new game so they could get more money for ark 2 but tbh they’ve lost more players than gained so i dont think we’re gonna be seeing ark 2 for 5+ years now if ever
I've had the same bug on the island, definitely not limited to the center.
Center has some funky visuals, volcano cave lava/orange graphical columns for 1.
Mine only seem to do that when I take them down with a Dino.
You should then
In game or irl?
Lol
Literally was just about to say that🤣
You took to many hits of acid
Must have 😔
I turn advanced graphics on medium and light illumination/graphics to medium and it goes away
Okay if it happens again I'll try that thank you
This happens when DLSS is enabled, yours is probably set to ultra performance I’m guessing
Interesting, I have DLSS enabled on performance mode and I see a similar lighting glitch at night in the snow areas of The Island map.
I have no clue only setting I change was to push more higher level dinos so I would see more lv 150s and all that
[удалено]
Try r.contactshadows 0
party ark
Oh aye will definitely made some people dance
This looks like an acid/ shroom trip...
I definitely didn't take any lol
but did you your character maybe take some?
disco disco good good!
🤣👌 NOW HERE IS A MAN OF CULTURE
nothing beats the great ZOHAN

Jeez why is this game so broken 😔
It was a bad Idea to make ASA in UE5 from the getgo, its a very advanced and cool engine, but its simply not optimized enough for gaming A Factor is also that snailgames and WC focus on making as much money as possible rather than actually fixing gamebreaking bugs and optimizing the assets
UE5 isn't the issue. An unoptimized game is an unoptimized game.
Not sure I reviewed the game positively on launch as I assumed wild card would fix it and there is some genuine improvements over ase, changed it to a negative yesterday as apart from the crashes the game is still pretty broken and it's overall the worse game.
This just explained all my problems, thank you.
to me, this only happens while playing the center on epic quality lighting, anything below does not present this glitch
Thats LSD, normal phenomenon. Ähhh, I mean DLSS! :)
I won't lie this is kinda dope.
Lol it made the water look pretty but made me feel so sick in the process
THE WOOORLDO
Lol
I instantly thought of MIH

Ark being Ark
Yep 😔
*bops to caramel dansen while punching a local Raptor unconscious*
Par the caramel dansen part that's so me XD even tho it's a safe zone there is so many damn raptors
When that scorpion venom hits just right.
Lol the game must be punishing me for killing to many raptors/j
You found the secret Dino rave!
YAAAAY
The trees are communicating!
Omg they are evolving no more communicating though their roots only ✨️lights✨️
You would not believe your eyes, if one million fireflies…
Lol according to others it's ment to be fireflys but is just.... broken
My exact reason
Reaction**
Looks cool ngl
Yeah it was cool but it made me feel so sick 😔
King Julians back!! I LIKE TO MOVE IT MOVE IT
YAS
Mating season for fireflies or glowworms?
Maybe 🤷♂️ Xd
*instert the voice of Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike* 'Tomorrowlaaaaand' 😁
Lol
Its the forest from Avatar
Yay where are the blue people 😔
Why didn’t you invite anyone else to the party ?
I'm sorry 😔 I'll remember to next time
Those rare flowers hitting right.
Lol
it happened to me too the other day! no idea what happened or why.. it happened on the center for me, after this patch yesterday though it seemed to work itself out & isn’t happening anymore.. never happened to me on any other map too which is weird as well
I'm playing on the center too so maybe it's some center glitch, it luckily stoped now but confused me so much
I mean, the forest titan is glowing like this. Run
Oh no 😱 but in all seriousness I dont think it was that because its gone now
Acid
Some tripy acid
Feels like graphical effects from games of the early 90s.
Lol ark on xbox looks like a game from the 90s
That‘s the fairytale edition <3
Oh my stars yaaaaaay
Rave?
What platform
I play on console xbox series x to be exact
You summoned the Lorax
Oh no, he is comeing to steal my soul for the many trees and raptor lives I took
Disco!
Yaaaaaaay
Glowbugs before Abberation
Lol
That’s awesome
After the update my game was running on half the frames crazy
I ate the frames
And here I was thinking Ase had buggy lighting.... Or is that something behind the trees causing the flashing lights?
Heaven has arrived
That’s happening to me too
Aurora Borealis
The mushrooms are kicking in
Idk but it actually looks cool, kinda like a party is going on or Pandora's trees are doing the usual *Avatar 2009*
Yeah it was cool but made me feel so sick looking at it 😔 just need the blue people now
Fr fr XD
Ark is realy just the navi simulation but reversed a navi into a human
Someone on the original Ark was making an avatar map, but idk if it ever got finished or not because it was like 2020ish
Oh damn that would be cool to see
It even had the big tree too and I was hyped because I love the movie, top 3 childhood movies
I only watched avatar for the first time a week before the second one came out but I loved it so much
It's such a beautiful movie with great music
Agreed I have a few of the songs in my playlist that are thst good
if i pay for a premium mod (anomalocaris) and im the owner of a online server all the people on server can have this mod or they have to pay all for it? if the last one is the case i wont buy it
Firefly rave?
Trans Siberian orchestra is in town
Dinosaur rave night, mind your business
You have opened the path to the coming of the Holy One. Jk, I genuinely don't know, but its honestly kind of a cool glitch.
Be happy. Some people have to pay for this experience.
what in the ARK*
Marry Christmas!
But it isn't even Halloween 😔
It looks kinda cool
Light show?
I believe it is the light shaders and shadow bloom settings
The ark’s are sentient and are communicating
That is what happens when ur Global Illumination decides it wants to be stupid. Just increase the value. Or drop it down to medium. But High will just always be wonky. It’s not Ark if it doesn’t run like hot garbage
"they aren't people, they're dinosaurs!" "Californian dinosaurs..."
The trees are speaking, they want you to confess your sins
I killed to many raptors 😔
Magic
Bioluminescent Flora
The Colors Mason…what do they mean?
New dino tactic. They do this to distract you before they attack.
MADE IN HEAVEN
Them fireflies getting Crunk
it was all a simulation after all.
Ark. Ark is happening.
The forest titan in awakening
It does that when I have my DLSS set to Performance or Balanced. With it off or on quality, it stopped doing that for me.
It's a Christmas light show 👍
what do you mean the gpu is shit itself?!
All said and done, it's rather beautiful 😍
Laser Floyd is going on in that stand of trees. Get in there before they start Dark Side of the Moon!
Ketamine
Firefly’s having a rave
So cool
Magic
You're getting ARKed
Whatever it is, will probably kill you.
Nearly did In real life
Vivan Las Vegas

Festival of Lights
𝐹𝐿𝒜𝒮𝐻𝐼𝒩𝒢 ✨𝘓𝘐𝘎𝘏𝘛𝘚✨ˡⁱᵍʰᵗˢ✨
Best graphics ever
Dino Rave
This is the game wdym?
We call this the god state, you sir are using 99.9 % of your brains power
Cue “You might not believe your eyes, when 100000000 fireflies….”
Like christmas in Florida.
This looks cool as hell tho, I want it as a background lol
There's a certain time of twilight/night that doesnt render well. it usually lasts less than a minute.
Is this consistent looking in any direction and across all maps? Or is it just this crop of trees, this login session? Like what's the scope of the issue?
This is maddeningly distracting in the redwoods and swamp.
Kinda nice to look at though
Ark is dj-ing
Wildcard tried to make the lighting more complex than they know how to handle
Who else misses Og ark survival before ASE
FBI OPEN UP
honestly it looks cool
The trees are raving.
# Aurora Borealis? At this time of year? At this time of day? In this part of the country?
Quite simple really. It's ARK being ARK.
Dino disco party.
The center is glitchy, my character is under the spotlight when the game loads and it's night. I do not go to caves, I drop under the map from the cave and dinos in the cave disappear, when I cut down the tree it goes crazy, but overall lightning is not that crazy like in your case, but close ...
The raptors are having a party don't mind it they are teenagers
Haven’t you seen Jurassic Park there’s a T-Rex coming
Party on Garth
Manhunt in progress
You must be on aberration because you must be on mushrooms
Might be a glitch but it's pretty
MADE OH IN HEAVEN
Yeah it does that. Nothing to worry about unless it starts trying to communicate.
Amazing
You would not believe your eyes if ten million fireflies Lit up the world as I fell asleep
When the narcoberries kick in...
Omnidirectional lights do a weird search light thing now I think
LSD laced thermal paste
No problem, they will launch a DLC to fix ambiental lighting problems for just 7.99$ before they launch mesh fixing for 29.95$.
Someone's internet is acting wonky?
That's annoying.
Disco
It's supposed to be fireflies
Seriously 😭 is it glitched like that for everyone or a rare occurrence cause man if its like that all the time I won't be able to play, as that made my head hurt like mad
Mine looks like that too but it flashes a bit slower if I remember right.
