    I like to PvP, and PvE. Usually wearing an Exo Suit nowadays. Unlocking it is easy with no cheats needed anymore, and usually on a server, official or unofficial, I'm not fussed. Single Player is great though, certainly with a guide for any platform be it xbox, ps4, ps5, pc, it's great. Sometimes play MTS, and usually post patch/update. But a survival game needs some community news and that's what I do, giving you the latest on events, small tribes, maybe even fast flyers and primitive plus, usually covering all maps from Island to Genesis Part 2. And one day. ARK 2!

    Pretty environment overhaul but the dino models still look like they did so they kind of feel out of place among all the improvements. Just me though.

    Can you demo some actual gameplay differences? I would like to see the building system in SA and see if it's been updated so we don't have to "drop" or "raise" foundations on uneven ground. I would like to see if moving materials from a dino to storage is still as painful and difficult a process as vanilla. Can you showcase some actual gameplay differences outside of the visuals. Yes.. ARK SA is pretty, but pretty lasts about an hour and then you've seen most of it. I want to know if there have been any substantial gameplay improvements for QoL. This is what will KEEP people interested and purchasing as opposed to the new visuals just looking good. 90% of the players in regular ark had to turn down the graphics just to handle the lag.. so I don't think visuals are the best selling point for Wildcard. Let's see some actual QoL improvements. Is the whistle system less janky and confusing? Do I still have to popcorn everything out of a dino to move it? I noticed the raft is a little wonky. Can we still build on it? You did showcase a that the torch can be held in your belt. That's a good QoL item. Though I didn't see it working on the Troudons at night. Gimme some GAMEPLAY. Graphics are meh to most people. Not important. I've got loads of pretty games that suck and won't ever get played becasue the gameplay is crap. And I've got some fugly games I play all the time because they have good mechanics.

    I really love that the most beautiful scenes imo are the areas with water and the areas with snow which just looked so bland even in 2015. I am so excited to revisit the maps super excited for whenever Aberration comes out to see how beautiful and terrifying that map will look!

  • @TheEskrion
    @TheEskrion 9 месяцев назад +21

    Ironically, the snow biome is the one I personally see the biggest (and actually positive) difference between ASE and ASA. The missing wind makes ASA's green biomes actually look dead to me. ASA does look good at a glance, don't get me wrong. I am just searching for 40$ worth of improvement, because the gameplay ain't having it. Yes, you have S+ QOL improvements in the base game now, congratulations, but there is still the meshing issue, rafts still clip through any terrain and are a mess to build on and still be usable, animations are more or less exactly ASE, so no improvement there as well. I DO like the ruins they put around the lore sites. What I don't like, from a pure gameplay perspective is the immense addition of optical clutter in the caves. It does look nice on a first exploration, but for the grind... hell no. I want to see them dinos. From the first impressions I am not at all convinced, that the momentary state of the game is worth my money, even tho I really want to play ARK on an official server again.

      They changed most of the character animations like running jumping swimming gathering. You can turn down the graphics. And arguably the biggest upgrade which is better support for mods and console mods isn't in effect yet.

    One thing I wish they had revamped was the dino movements so they felt heavy and a part of the environment. The way they moved in SE was so robotic and cheap.

      They actually did not reshape the map, but "just" strapped some new details on top of the old map data. IF they had reshaped, or rebuilt it, meshing wouldn't be a thing anymore. Still, the additions look good, if massively cluttered, especially in the caves. It still should be the free update, they promised on Twitter, not a 40$ + DLCs deal. Quite a lot of developers delivered the same amount of effort and more for free to their loyal and paying customers.
