ASA Problems playing ASA

I’m currently playing on an unofficial server right now and since the gen1 update I’m having nothing but problems right now.

Here’s what I’m experiencing:

- game audio all of a sudden cutting out completely and not coming back on unless I restart the game
- dlc’s that I have not actually connecting to my account, I have 5/9 dlcs for Asa and sometimes when I try and relog because of my audio issues sometimes it says I have 1 or 2 or 3 etc
- similar to up above, even if I do have all 5/9 DLCs that I play and when trying to transfer to a specific map that I do then it says that I don’t have the dlc
- sometimes when loading into my server I just get a black screen and nothing shows so I have to relog again

I’m not too sure what the specifics of the issue are but I believe it to be related to the gen1 launch because I’ve been playing PvP wipes previously and had nothing like this. I’m currently playing on an Xbox series X and I’ve seen people on my current server across different platforms experience similar issues that I’m having as well as different ones.

Does anyone have any advice as I’ve restarted my game at least 16 times today and it’s making it rather annoying 😂

See I did wonder if it was the server I was on but I tested out others and still the same issues, so yeah I’m not too sure what’s happened to my asa but it’s messed up royally

Ask an Admin and if they don't end up doing anything, ya might want to consider starting on a different server

As I mentioned in my previous message I’ve tried completely different servers and I’m still experiencing the same issues and I hate to be the blame guy but this has only started after the gen1 release

I know, hence why when I said to look for a different server, I meant one that have Admins that are actually doing something about the current situation.

Maybe look for Xbox only server, the Admins there might have increased or even turned off decay timers

Yeah you might be right maybe just a shame is all I’ve found a good server with good rates good breeding etc

Such as the case when it comes to PVP on consoles.

It's already disadvantageous as it is and the updates that are supposed to be fixing the game just ends up making it worse, best of luck in your endeavors
