An Update on ARK: Ultimate Mobile Edition

Hey Survivors! A bit of a novel I'm writing here, but we wanted to give you a little update on where we're at with ARK: Ultimate Mobile Edition, what we're working on, and what's upcoming that you can expect.

• Hackers/Exploit-Abusers: First of all, we are taking any reports of cheating extremely seriously. We will not stop pushing until you have the ability to play the game without worry of your hard work being taken away due to cheaters. As frustrating as it is, these things can't be fixed overnight, but we are working as hard as we can to ensure they are patched with updates or server patches as needed.
• Crashing (specifically after purchasing ARK Pass): We have narrowed down where this is having an issue, and this is expected to be fixed in our patch later this week.
• Sleeping in ARK Mobile: We've heard the desire that many players are missing the ability to "sleep" in singleplayer. We're happy to officially announce that this is making a return in ARK: UME! This will come out in a later patch, but rest assured (haha, get it, rest?) we hear your requests and are doing what we can to deliver!
• Alpha + Dino + Resources Spawning: We understand that there are quite a few alphas on the maps. This is being looked at. Along with this, comes balancing non-alpha spawns and the issue with resources not respawning in multiplayer. We are continuing to to investigate these issues.
• Overall Server Stability: Many of you are concerned with servers going down, rolling back, or overall just not having good health. I'm happy to tell you we are making progress on this and will continue working on server patches behind-the-scenes to reduce their downtime.

And lastly, I just want to say thank you. Thank you for playing the game and investing your time and energy into this. All of us here at Grove Street Games appreciate every one of you for all the reports you've sent. We would not be able to do these things without you all.
