ASE or ASA?

[Thunder]

Haven't played ASE for a couple years, but tried out ASA for a bit, and it got dull real quick. Is there still any kind of support for ASE? Like bug fixes, mod updates, active unofficial servers, etc.

As far as I know ASE is abandoned mate. So not real updates outside of them spamming an ASA AD if that counts. Plenty of active unofficial servers and mod updates that really depends on the mod and the mod creator. Some mods I use I consider to be complete and no updates are really required for them. I would say ASE is the better choice as you have all the freedom to play your game your way and none of the ASA restrictions imposed up on the community. Hope this helps some and good luck mate.

ASE ended official support on September 30th of this year. However it is currently a more robust game both in terms of content and mods than that of ASA. Modders updating their mods depends on the modder and with no more updates being done officially, there's little need for modders to currently update their mods unless they're adding/fixing something on their end that wasnt previously.

As for servers, there are over 50,000+ unofficial servers out there. Dont use the in game system to find servers though as it cant comprehensively list them all. Instead most use the battlemetrics server instead as it is the only place that lists them all and also has a pretty a good search system in place too.


All in all, it just depends on your wants.

ARK has 12 maps, ASA has 1 and is in early access. Both runs like garbage. It's up to you really.

ase 100%. ASA is a money grab scam to avoid making Ark 2

ASE still has unofficial servers.

Since they hardly fixed any bugs before ASA, ASA is completely broken and they want to force you to pay them more money for ASA. I doubt we will see much support for ASE outside what mod creators can provide.
