An ARK dedicated server is a private game server for ARK: Survival Evolved. It lets you and your friends play together in your own world with your own rules. You can customize the game, add mods, and control who joins. It's more stable and has less lag than public servers, giving you a better and smoother gaming experience.
If you're playing ARK on Steam, you can follow these steps:
1. Go to View > Game Servers > Favourites on Steam, click on 'Add server by IP', and enter your Server Address into the popup box.
2. Open the game ARK and click 'Join ARK'.
3. In the bottom left corner under the filter options, change the Session Filter to Favorites. Press refresh, and then you should see your server and be able to join.
If you're playing on Epic Games, follow these steps:
1. Open ARK and select the 'HOST / LOCAL' option in the menu.
2. Click 'Play Single Player'. When loaded in, press TAB to open the game's Console.
3. In the Console, type open (server ip):7777. This will then begin connecting you to your server.
That's it! You're now connected to the ARK server by IP and ready to play.
It's instantaneous! As soon as you purchase a server with us, you will receive an email with your login information to access your server's control panel. Just login and connect to your server!
