You may notice that in the game the server list is quite short. This is sadly a common problem that affects a lot of multiplayer server based games. Using the guide below you will be able to see all servers
Connect with Steam
Method 1 (Direct Connect):
- Go to your game panel and make note of your server's connection info IP and Port.
- Start the game, open console (click Tab) and type:
open IP:PORT. If your server has a password, type:open IP:PORT password
Replacing IP and Port with your server's connection info IP and port.
Method 2 (Steam's server browser favourites):
- Open the Steam client.
- In the menu bar at the top left, go to View → Servers.
- Go to the FAVOURITES tab, right click in the blank space to open a small menu. Add server by IP address should be an option. If you don't have any servers "Favourited" already, it should be the only option. Click that option, you should now see "Enter the IP address of the server you wish to add."
- Copy your "query info" from the front page of your control panel into the window, and select "add this address to favourites".
- Once it is added to your favourites, Go in-game and find your server in the favourites list of the in-game server browser OR right-click on the server in the steam server browser and select "Connect to Server"
Method 3 (Steam's server browser):
- Launch the game
- Back in Steam go to the view menu (top left) then select servers click Change Filters and change the game to ARK: Survival Evolved
- Find your server in the list (If it starts with " it will be near the top)
- Click join (put in your password if required)
Connect with Epic Games Launcher
- Go to your game panel and make note of your server's connection info IP and Port.
- Start the game, open console (click Tab) and type:
open IP:PORT. If your server has a password, type:open IP:PORT password
Replacing IP and Port with your server's connection info IP and port.
