Its same with ark and always will be. It's simple stay off of official its broke because of players. Ddos, spam building, intentionally causing lag for others. List goes on. I found the perfect server and its were I'm staying. Some things are broken they know this. They found a worm hole of issues. They told us that.. they are working to fix them and that takes time but rule of thumb stay off of official forever. Costal escape all day.
