Ark Survival Evolved Battle Eye Problem.

[Fuedrakia]

OK, game decided to update today, and after update was done and I had to verify my cash 3 times, I almost got it to play, and then it closed as the Battleye install prompt popped up. I hit cancle, and then closed the game down before trying again, once more got the Battleye prompt, hit cancle, and tried to play as normal, and it closed and gave me the prompt again before taking me back to the main menue.

So after that mess, I shut down my computer, turned it back on, verified my cash a 4th time, and then tried to play it without Battleye using the butten prompt. The music started up as normal, but the Ark splash never showed up, even after a full hour of waiting, so I finally just shut down the game and am currently waiting for the files to verify again. I am hoping this is just one massive update glitch, but if it isn't does anyone know how to possibly fix it?

[Fuedrakia]

Problem fixed itself, it loaded up after selecting play without Battleye, and I am loading my save now.

[Fuedrakia]

Never mind, problem is not solved, because for some unknown reason, even though I selected the option to play without Battleye, it closed my game down and promted me to either install Battleye or cancle. I of course chose cancle, and am now waiting to see if I can load my save.

[Fuedrakia]

K, had to close the game down again becuase it got stuck on the Primal Data thing that it always gets stuck on, and I am having to verify my files again to fix it, hopefully after this it will actually work, but if it does not, I will need help fixing it.

I am having the same problem. While loading into any map it crashes to start menu, or to battle eye installer. have verified, restarted, all that normal stuff as well

[Fuedrakia]

I am really hopping this time will fix it, but at this point I am at a loss, if it asks me to install Battleye once again even if I select the option to not use Battleye, I will be out of options.

[Greggernaught]

hopefully someone finds a fix!

[Fuedrakia]

Welp, I am out of ideas, I tried veryfying my files one last time, then tired launching the game through the Without BattlEye option, but as it was loading my save file, it closed the game agian and asked me if I want to install it or not. The only thing left to do at this point is hit install, but I doubt that will work at this point.

[Fuedrakia]

Welp, the game is now on an infinate loading PrimalGameData_BP thing, no matter how many times I verify my games cache. I have one thing left to try, if it does not work though, I am done trying to fix this till tomorrow, and if that does not work, I am uninstalling this game and waiting till my usage is about to re-up to re download it and pray that fixes things, because otherwise I will never be able to play this game again.

[Fuedrakia]

Welp, I give up, I tried loading the came ragular, and it crashed back to the main menu, didnt even get the BattlEye install pop up this time. I will try again in the moring, but for now, I am going to go kill something on Monster Hunter World, at least with that game I know I don't have to worry about this BattlEye BS.

[Fuedrakia]

Welp, it s official, this update has broken my copy of Ark, either it crashes back to the main menu when I try to play it normally, or it gets stuck trying to the PrimalGameData_BP every time I try to play it without BattlEye. I'll wait till my usage is about to R-up and then try re-installing the damn thing, but for now Ark is unplayable.

This really sucks two, I had the mods I wanted already installed, and my base was comming along nicely....all that work down the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ drain.

OP, what are your PC specs (Help in Steam, System Information, copy paste here)?

[Fuedrakia]

An old Alienware ALW14-3437sLV 14-Inch Laptop 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5-4200M Processor, 8GB DDR3L, 1TB HDD, 80GB SSD, which was discontinued, and I have had to resset it a few times. It can run the game on low settings, medium if I wanted to push it, but its kind of mute now as I have uninstalled the game and will be re-installing to see if that fixes things.

OK, Sorry if im mis reading this. but it sounds like you are trying to play Ark official, and canceling battleye. You cannot, you have to play with battle eye if you want to play official. Only on private server can you play without battleye. If you hit cancel the game will fail to load. PrimalGameData_BP I do belive is the loading of things like bows etc. according to Dev Kit, if you log in, run battleye if on official. single player it doesnt matter, and let it load , just wait, hoping that after it loads once it would be easier after that.

[Greggernaught]

When I was trying yesterday, I was just trying to play single player and non dedicated, which i was playing with no problems the night before. I did try launching with and without battleye. If I hit install on the battleye launcher that pops up instead of cancel, it reacts the same as if I had hit cancel and boots me from ARK. When it was loading the PrimalGameData_BP for me, it acted like it was loading normally for a minute then it quit to main menu again. Have not tried yet today as I just got home from work, but that is what was going on last night for me

Just tried to load in on The center, Abberation, and the Island, on singleplayer. It is still doing the same thing. PC is for sure not the problem, as I normally run ARK on high settings with no issues, and am still able to play other games wether through steam or not.
