Open ARK server and increase player distance?

Me and a friend of mine are just about to do a project that we invite as many friends to our server as possible and we want to play ARK through. However, as we're playing now, we can't move further than 250m from each other.

So I wanted to ask how do you open a server that is accessible at all times and that there's no limit.

And my 2nd question is: How difficult is it to play through just 2nd ARK? Or how much do you have to be to be able to play it "comfortably"?

PS: Play on the PS4

So without any distance you have to rent a server, it costs 10 euro a month, preferably G-Portal, but it also costs more if you want more slots, I only advise you to have two or three people Ark. So playing through in pairs is very nice, also on 1x settings, but you should possibly set Taming higher, everything can be set. It's definitely comfortable, but I've been playing quite a long time and I've already done it, if you're new it'll be fun haha, but yes, if you want you can add it to the Ps4, @Maxdaszombie.

I'll add you, then I can ask a few questions, otherwise it's just going back and forth here.

Yup, please

"Recently in Ark Survival Evolved you can increase the distance between host and player using a slider, which can be found directly when creating the non-dedicated server. You can use the" non-dedicated host tether distance "switch to set the distance The value 1 is currently in play for around 200 meters, you can also increase this switch to 2 or more, which then makes a distance of 400 meters possible. One thing should be considered, however, because the greater the distance between host and player is and is, the more resources are required for it. "

So you have a maximum of 400m, so you need your own server.

Thanks for the info, I'll see how we will fix it.
