Join the Cluster
Search by the live server name first. If the browser is slow, use direct connect with the game port.
Find the right listing.
ASA can hide perfectly healthy servers behind the wrong browser filters. Use these steps before assuming the server is down.
Set filters
Open Join Game and use Unofficial > Player Servers. If crossplay is enabled, avoid platform-only filters such as PC-only or console-only.
Search names
Search part of the exact live server name, not just the website name. Use the list below if this is a cluster.
Password filter
Leave password-protected filters off unless an admin says the server has a password.
Switch to Unofficial
In the server browser, switch to Unofficial > Player Servers and search The Island — PvE to find us.
Server browser search
Search these live names in ASA. If a map is passworded, enable the password-protected checkbox before refreshing.
Can't find us?
If a listing has not propagated yet, or filters are hiding the server, search again by name after a refresh — the in-game browser is the only way to join.
The Island — PvE
Make sure the browser is set to Unofficial > Player Servers, then search the name above to find the listing.
Ask the admins.
Drop the admins a message for setup help, tribe questions, or rule clarifications.
