Also having issues with this, didn't know it had been going on for so long.

> Stuck on primal game data & disconnects. 

Hopefully this will get fixed ASAP.

Maybe those files were on an older patch and this is the newer one, it's easier to push out something through drive than say wait for steam to go through

If the version file is correct these files are for running V5.5

well i looked at the server files and i'm completly lost. i host multiple ark server with ASM(ark server manager) an awesome tool. 

Also what is very important is how many map grides can you host with what server speccs?

More details will be released tomorrow w/ a manager I'm assuming. In terms of server specs I'm testing with this:

Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU D-1541 @ 2.10GHz, 2x 16384MB, 2 x 2000 GB.

Will that be generated when you setup your own server?

I believe so, setting a win server up now will let you know. That key was from my Nitrado server.

This beckons another question. If we are indeed limited by grids per server, are we expected to/can we link grids together with other servers? How is this expected to work? Or will all the 'unofficial' servers by tiny 1x1 grids each?

Once you purchase a server or host a server on your own Windows/Linux box the server comes with a private key which can be used to link multiple servers together.

Looks like this:" Atlas Cluster Shared Secret: 30ce79df-f8c2-466c-b89c-7301aa313b21"

From what I understand  each 1x1 is a sever in its self. so this is how they get their "40k" 15x15 at 150 people per is 37500 people with each square being its own server. So to host multiple squares you would need a seriously powerful server, or multiple ones assuming your running max players. 

So far I have seen max of 100 people on a rented server for a 1x1... 

Yes, that's exactly how this works. In terms of hosting your own server this looks very complicated so doing some mucking around in a Windows environement and will try to throw together a tutorial for temporary use.
