Questions about new map

[Fishnatic]

ASA is the first and only Ark release I've played so I don't know how it works when a new map comes out. Do I need to go to an obelisk in ASA to move to the new map? I read that I can't bring any of my dinos but what about my level and xp-- will I be starting naked and new on SE?
If I start a new solo game does that wipe out my current player and all the dinos, bases etc.? If so, is there a way around that? Thanks!

If you want to use your current character on Scorched Earth then yes you will need to go to an obelisk and upload your survivor, then you load into the DLC and instead of creating a new survivor you download the existing one that you uploaded.

If you have a single player save on The Island you will be able to make a new single player save on Scorched Earth without replacing the other.

You can transfer Your character ONLY... and you can go to an obelisk and find a scorched server you want to play on, if you want to do it that way

Thanks to both of you. Much appreciated.

due note, some of the restrictions they mentioned are for official servers only and not player made

Well normally how it works is the following;

They tell us a release date for a new map, they then delay it for a couple of weeks/months.

End of story

Does that mean if I start a single player game on SE I'd be able to import my ASA dinos to it? If that's a yes the trick then would be getting to an obelisk without dying a hundred times, after that easy sailing.

Scorched Earth is out, have fun

To expand on your question I believe the Dino port block is only for online play so you should in theory be able to bring your dinos over in single player.
You can take your character over to the new map or just make a whole new one and have 2 different saves going on at once.

In the past they have had an issue with dinos going missing and characters not uploading correctly so you lost them. This is why I have avoided carrying over personally.

Be very careful about uploading your character from any servers at the start. I suggest first off put all your gear into storage and leave dinos at base before uploading to prevent loss of gear being dropped on upload. I personally would wait a day or two if you want to do this in case there are gaming breaking bugs like lost characters which have happen in the past, and recall this is mostly the original code just ported over to UE5.

I consider this a high risk release so anyone foolish enough to do an upload you have been warned based on their track record.

Ok I will follow your advice ty.

If you Ascend from the island, you will be able to take all of your items with you to SE too. Element will not transfer though. Uploading from an Obelisk also works but you spawn naked in the new server i think. Ascending is the only way to move from map to map and keep your equipment.

Do our cosmetics that we got from doing Turkey Trials, Winter Wonderland and Love Evolved transfer with us?
