Ark lost/timeout connection to host.
I have recently gotten back into ark, but i don't remember having this issue before.
Ill load into a server fine,and fairly quickly I can play for anywhere from 30 mins to 60 mins and be fine no lag nothing than the game will freeze up for a few second and lost/timeout connection to host and im back on the home screen.
The server I am playing on is myself and a few friends about 4 total with 21 mods most being small quality of life than a few of the bigger ones being ECO things, noone else is having this issue and we are always on discord talking so and thats not cut out any so i dont think its my internet.
I'm at my wits end on what to do
I have verified,uninstalled re installed,Opened ports, launched in both low memory and the low graphics with the same time results roughly,even went in and changed my ark settings to the lower band with thing like I have no idea what else to do so open to suggestions...

also side note for test ive left it up for a good hour why i was cooking and came back and it was FINE nothing had happened my friend was running around me to but as soon as i got out and started mining and doing stuff about 15mins in it noped out and sent me to my ark home screen, no lag nothing before hand it just freezes for about 2 seconds and says ive lost/timeout connection to host.

- Update- Putting it in windowed mode fixed it... No idea why.

I am suffering something similar, my connection drops roughly every 30 mins, usually when i am flying, very frustrating and it has only started this past week or so. I checked my server and it is up so something is disrupting it. My server is fine, i have reset my router etc etc....

I had to change my ports for my friend to be able to join my server after this update but now they're experiencing the same thing as you. Strange that it may be our graphics cards or something, we'll try that. Thanks!

Same problem here. Played last night for hours with my wife on our dedicated cluster and had no issue. Shut the server down, started it again this morning, nothing but random disconnects all day. She's running a 970, me a 2070,both have the issue. I don't think it's a graphics card problem because we both have different cards, and last night it didn't do it a single time. Not sure what to think.

the timeout issue is currently affecting most of the playerbase as far as I know, i hope it gets fixed soon

Haha, thanks for the updates guys, this makes me happy to know it's not just me but also sad to know it's probably not fixable at the time being.
