hacker on non-dedicated server?

[MacHorz]

played on firends non-dedicated server which was friends only.

but suddenly some guy got on server and had on lvl 4 a lvl 22k+ tamed dino plus rocket launcher.

thats nice.

so all ppl who are new to game and things to play with friends on non-dedicated: get ready for some big ♥♥♥♥ coming.

GUess this is Ark community? why else should random guy go and destroy other ppl stuff with hacks?

Have the person who is hosting the game put a password on it and only give it to the people he/she trusts.

Yeah sure, don't protect your session, enable downloads for that session and then come here crying and accusing other people of hacking. While the only problem is your own stupidity, that is indeed a large part of the Ark Community :-)

if dont have a password anyone can join and use admin cheats to spawn stuff in

[Bing Chilling]

HAHAHAHAH i love when people get mad over there stupid choices,you have to password lock it and disable admin commands and also ark downloads XD other wise others can see it join just like you did and bring over ♥♥♥♥ tones of dinos

Lol, I love how the trolls above have been banned! Anyway, I experienced this just last night, so this STILL happens, whaddaya know, some bored kids just have way too much time on their hands. Some id10t joined my non dedicated session with a billion-something level lightning wyvern and proceeded to take out 3 of my nice level dinos, before I kicked and banned him (which I managed to do pretty fast, thank goodness) - he did this under the username of "wildcard support" - which leads me to believe it's some troll who has issues with wildcard / Ark / other people / /itself / whatever (either way, I believe people like that have more issues with themselves, or more issues than time magazine :D) lesson learned for me - tick private match setting (password alone aint enough) - probably also disable admin controls for all, just to be safe.
