My girlfriend and I want to play ark on a pve server. Recommend one please!?

[Venkman]

Title says it all. We are very experienced Gamers and I've already played archon PVP servers but would like to move to a relaxed PVE environment where the players are not taking advantage and building all over the place to create disarray.

Can anyone be nice enough to recommend a server for us to join that is a nice PVE scene?

Thank you!

Advensty [The Center/SE Cluster] [PvPvE]
We have two clustered, PvPvE, 15 slot servers - intended to give players a tight-knit group experience. Our rates are 2x for XP/Gather/Breeding, and 4x for Taming. We also wanted to be able to have pure PvP and pure PvE players - and players that do both. The best way of that happening is through a good community. So Advensty's main priority is having a good community - this means being respectful and nice, and making the experience truely sandbox - by the communty creating events and common goals, as well as setting rules for PvP. This is a list of Community Goals that have been set, as well as PvP rules:

- Building a community city(s) and/or town(s) for trading, community events, etc.

- Building Arenas and/or Battlegrounds for more structured PvP for those who want it (Perhaps for prizes).

- World PvP is pretty much anything goes outside of the rules set forth, No offline raiding, no Titanosaurs (They can be fed after tamed), no Wyverns (Breath attacks go through walls), and last rule is if someone doesn't want to PvP don't attempt to do so with them.

For your first time you will have to if it doenst by itself, go to the Store and download The Center - ARK Expansion Map. If your having problems downloading it, thats easy. Do this, 1.) GO TO LIBRARY
2.) RIGHT CLICK THE GAME
3.) GO TO PROPERTIES
4.) GO TO DLC AND UNTICK AND THEN TICK THE BOX AGAIN
5.) IT WILL AUTO DOWNLOAD AFTERWARDS

Thanks so far! Wow, so kind.

Ok. one problem. I've been trying to do THIS ---

2.) RIGHT CLICK THE GAME
3.) GO TO PROPERTIES
4.) GO TO DLC AND UNTICK AND THEN TICK THE BOX AGAIN
5.) IT WILL AUTO DOWNLOAD AFTERWARDS

Followed the above instructions exactly, untick/ unchecked and then checked again but NOTHING happens or downloads? I'm an experienced gamer with a high end rig....why isn't this solution working for getting the center?

While I'm asking questions, do all the recomended servers above when they say "the center" they also include the first "main" island land area when the game was released right? and you can travel to both?

[MsPsycho]

How weird. Are you opt out of beta participation for steam? You go into your Steam - Settings - Account - There should be a botton that says Change Click it then click Opt out of all beta programs.
If its not that then thats pretty weird, when i unticked the Center dlc box then ticked it again it downloaded. I opened up ark and was able to join the server.
