276.493

Released - February 4, 2018

 

Fixed an issue with character transfers on Official Servers, that may have caused characters to be duplicated when transfering.

Important note regarding Ascension on the latest update:[1]

“ With the latest server update on PC (v276.493), if you're going to attempt ascension, before doing so please make sure you've opened a supply crate/transmitter/obelisk/ basically anything terminal/tribute inventories. It's a temp workaround to characters being lost when ascending whilst we're investigating character issues further.

Released - February 6, 2018
 
Fixed a game vunreability which allowed players to exploit, see thread: https://survivetheark.com/index.php?/forums/topic/304008-pc-major-version-277-vulnerability-fix/
Updated Ragnarok with various fixes and tweaks


PC Major Version 277: Vulnerability Fix.

Hey Survivors,

Recently, we have identified a critical exploit in our game that has existed since August 2015. The exploit is known and utilised by the PC (primarily Official) player base for quite some time. Today's major version update will resolve the vulnerability and address the issue going forward. We're sorry for the inconvenience with the unexpected major update to v277, but trust us when we say that the patch needed to happen immediately. Fortunately, we were able to look into those taking advantage of the exploit. Unfortunately, what became apparent is multiple 'mega-tribes', across multiple servers were taking advantage of it. 

Under normal circumstances, such an exploit would deem a global tribe wipe, and a comprehensive ban for all players involved from our Official Network, as well as BattlEye-protected servers. On this occasion, we have decided that we will be providing a one-time amnesty to everyone involved; this means that no one will be banned or wiped, as the impact of the action would have been too widescale and have a significant effect on our Official Servers. For those who took advantage of the exploit, whether your motivations were malicious, or to put yourself on even grounds, it ends now with a chance of redemption. Please note that this is just a one-time situation, and in the future, we will continue to be heavy-handed versus those who have been proven to play unfairly. 

We know that this decision may come as a surprise. However, we believe it is the best move to make for the health of the game and our Official Servers. We will be continuing to monitor our servers for cheaters, and are currently investing in additional external and internal/technical solutions to those playing unfairly and will do our best to ensure that the ARK remains a fair and competitive environment.

Thank you.

Will take reduced fall damage

Carry weight will be noticeably increased

Can carry small creatures and baby dinos in its pouch

A knockback kick which can affect significantly larger dinos

Added an aimed jump which can be used by holding down the Jump key

Carried characters in a pouch have reduced food consumption rate when carried by Mate-Boosted Female Procoptodons.

Babies imprinted while in a carried Procoptodon pouch receive more affinity

 

Dino TLC - The Gigantopithecus A.K.A Bigfoot

Receives a model update, animation update, new fur, sound pass and some new abilities:

The Bigfoot will receive an armour-degrading attack; this means when it fights, it'll do more damage to your armour's durability. It is important to note that the armour-degrading attack will not affect the Yeti creatures found in the game.

Added the capability to climb ziplines (but not jump between them)

Added a jump

It can now carry and throw small creatures

Throwing has been made more accurate, similarly to crabs with targetting cursor

 

Dino TLC - The Direbear

Receives a model update, animation update, new fur and some new abilities:

When riding a Direbear, players will be immune to bees. They won't be able to knock you off your bear, and they will target focus the bear instead of the player.

The Direbear will also be able to harvest honey from wild beehives without attracting bees or hurting the hive using it's alternative attack. Plus the amount of honey it receives will be 3x the standard amount.

Increased swim speed

 

Dino TLC - The Direwolf

Receives a model update, animation update, new fur and some new abilities:

Howl now activates a pack buff for 90 seconds (with a 1.5 minute cooldown). When the Alpha howls, the pack also howls. The pack buff strengthens the Alpha, as well as its pack (reduced amount vs Alpha)

Hunter's Instinct passive buff which will allow it to sniff out people/creatures with less than 50% health

Sniff tertiary ability to indicate nearby explorer notes, or to detect buried/stealth creatures

 

Dino TLC - The Rex

Receives a model update, animation update, and some new abilities:

Its roar should receive a Cooldown and make non-allies (under a certain dragweight) poop to act as a small stun/interrupt. There will be a cooldown on victims so that they cannot be pooplocked continuously.

The roar will not be able to scare anything above its level

Roar will cause players to poop but not stun them

Rex's ability to climb over small rocks and steeper slopes have been improved.

 

 

 

Patch Notes for v278

On the 10th of February, turrets will be hard-number limited to 100. This means that you will not be able to build over 100 turrets within a 10k unit radius, however existing set-ups with over 100 turrets will still function as normal until the 18th of February when we will enable the hard limit, which will retroactively disable (randomly selected) turrets that are over the 100 limit from functioning.

 

Here's the patch note for the turret changes when they land on the 18th:

 

You can now enable the retroactive turret hard limit by enabling this setting in your game.ini under ShooterGameMode:

bHardLimitTurretsInRange=True

 

This will work on autoturrets, heavy turrets, tek turrets, plant turrets and is no longer map specific. The hard limit calculation is done on start-up, so if your turrets are ever over the limit, they will be randomly shut-off until you're under the limit. In order to restore shut off turrets, you must pick up any which exceed the number, as well as shut-off turrets and replace them in order for them to work.

Dragon's Fire Breath direct impact damage reduced by 50%

Fixed a bug which caused Rock Drake and Wyvern eggs to sink below their nests over time.

Added Rock Golem Saddles to Scorched Earth Loot Table

Removed the ability to place Plant Species Y and Bear Traps while riding a dino

The Giga is no longer raged by fall damage

The Giga's rage mechanic is now based on damage taken before reduction from external sources (saddles, yuty)

Reduced the respawn rate of Basilisk and lowered the Nearby Player check

Fixed a case where the Rock Drake would not correctly uncloak
