[Problem] Ark crashes repeatedly on 'Join Ark' in main menu

Hi everyone,

So I found this major game-breaking bug in Ark - survival evolved today. I wanted to join a server I made elsewhere, so I change the Session Filter to 'Unofficial' and instantly the game crashes

Stadia prompts the following message;

"Error, Failed to start the game session".

When I select "OK" another message is prompted;

"Reopen game, Uh-oh. The game had a glitch. Please reopen the game to keep playing." ... :disappointed_face:

I shrugged and thinking 'Ah that can happen' I closed the error messages and started Ark again. It loads into the main menu, but now whenever I select 'Join Ark' the game crashes immediately. 

I don't know if the server list is too large to load or there is something else wonky going on that makes the game crash. I tried the same thing with another account and as soon as you change the session filter to 'unofficial' you are locked out (forever?). 

 

What can I do so that I can see the servers again? I'm feeling very 'stranded and lost' without Ark working :face_with_tongue: 

 

Thanks!

Having the same problems since round 11 AM Est. I was in a nitrado server I made playing nd the game froze. I sat for 19 mins, cause it's ARK, but nothing.  When I restarted the game same issue. I posted on reddit how to start your own server for Stadia version and have gotten hate for it because people were worried this could happen. I doubt it but just throwing ish at the wall to see what sticks as the cause for this.

I am experiencing this same problem when trying to return to a solo game on it. I go through the main game menu pick my map and it starts to load then bam - error failed to load game session. then a pop up about a game glitch. No real answers and support is a run around from what I can tell. It's frustrating.
