Ark Forever is what Ark was meant to be. This game was designed for incredibly deep PVE and PVP experiences, but unfortunately official servers were never able to find a perfect balance of both. We believe Ark Forever finds that balance. Whether you’ve never played the game, or have thousands of hours played, this is where the best Ark experience takes place for casual and hardcore players alike. Let’s highlight a few points as to what makes Ark Forever so great.
*Note: We are a relatively new server, having just launched Genesis 3/7/2020, Extinction 3/10/2020, The Island & Ragnarok on 3/24/2020, Aberration on 4/7/2020, Valguero on 5/22/2020, Crystal Isles on 6/11/2020, The Center on 7/13/2020, Scorched Earth on 7/28/2020, and Genesis: Part 2 on 6/3/2021.
1. Our Rates & Server Configuration – Not only have we increased rates for things like XP, Gathering/Harvesting, Taming/Breeding, but we have also made several other quality of life improvements such as reducing player food/water/stamina drain, increasing player health/weight/melee/fortitude per level, removing permanent diseases, and much more. We’ve also added and customized select mods for the most realistic and enjoyable experience possible. For a full list of changes, visit the server settings section of the website.
2. We Don’t Wipe – Ark Forever is forever. We understand that there are times where it seems like a wipe would be best, and there are players that prefer that style of play, but for players looking for a long-term style of play, this is the server for you. Issues such as base clutter, meshing, and established tribes griefing new tribes are dealt with quickly and appropriately to make the server enjoyable for new and old players alike. We work hard to prevent these and other problems from being an issue. Our team works diligently to resolve any issues as quick as possible. Just use the contact form or ticket system in Discord for any help or questions.
3. Our Servers – Not only do our servers keep backups of their backups to ensure your hard work will never be lost, they also have a 99.9% uptime. That’s only about 10 minutes per week of downtime used for updates and maintenance. We also use the best servers in the world, located here in the U.S.A., connected to the fastest fiber lines available for the lowest latency no-lag experience possible.
4. Our Team – The dream team we’ve assembled consists of players that started playing Ark when it first launched in Early Access in 2015, and we’ve compiled a lot of information on what makes a server great. From several years of playing on both official and unofficial servers, we’ve had our fair share of experiences in both PVP and PVE. We know that the game is best enjoyed when combining both of these worlds with the proper server balance and moderation team, which unfortunately is almost impossible to find. This is what led to the creation of Ark Forever.
