Ark Survival Ascended Update 1.071.011

Following the release of the Helicoprion a week ago, Studio Wildcard has released multiple hotfixes to address various issues that have surfaced since the content drop.

That continues today, as the developers have pushed out Ark Survival Ascended update 1.071.011 (PC 71.11), and this plugs an exploit, and reduces the Megalodon spawns for client-side too.

Read on for the complete patch notes for today’s hotfix.
