    Great game imo. It's almost like pokemon meets far cry but with dinos rather than pokemon. You can go from being a caveman to having a full basically Ironman suit and can tame anything from a dodo to massive apex predators that you feel invincible while riding.

    When I played Ark, I had fantastic visions of creating a sea ferring tribe, interacting with the direwolf tribe of the far north, of fending off envenomed waves of the swamp peoples.
    Needless to say I was crushingly disappointed with almost server-wide monopoly style tribes that didn't speak English whatsoever.

    I oddly enjoyed testing my own solo play way back when.
    My favorite mounts were the big frog and scorpion (oh God I love scorpions). I would act small, not really making myself visually distinct. Small mounts, small crafting centers. Not worth it as a primary target. I'd raid places for eggs using stuff like grappling hooks. Create a small bomb cache to use on unsuspecting structures, and basically drop myself in an iron box at the end of the day.
    Eventually I'd join up with people I liked and helped them out with clandestine things like spying on people, laying traps, and torpor sniping.
    I absolutely loved that role.

      Or they can just boost the settings and enjoy the game without wasting their life away. I feel like ark is literally just unplayable on default settings, no one wants to sit in one spot for 10 hours trying to tame a Dino thats just going to be killed in the next 10 minutes anyway.

    A majority of people that play ark don’t play official if you don’t play official it’s a great game. Don’t play official and you’ll love the game it’s that simple.
    Now if you do play official. Wildcard give absolutely ZERO fucks about balancing. They add a bunch of stupid tech shit then make maps that make it damn near free. Then along with those maps you get dinos that are OP as shit (look at the Shadowmane and noglins). There was a huge meshing problem a while ago and it went like a year without being fixed thousands of people were wiped without being able to fight back because they were under the map.
    Play dedicated with your friends or play solo that’s all I can tell you I’m done spending 10 hours a day playing so my base doesn’t get wiped
    Oops did I say they fixed meshing

    Honestly, I miss the game but it fell off with me real quick with the whole "constantly online and people can gank you while you're at work" mentality. That and the whole taking 24 hours to tame certain dinos made things a hellscape for people with dayjobs.

      hey dobby, you just need to get in tune with when certain servers wipe. There are a few servers that wipe every 4-6 weeks and have very healthy population for awhile then it steadily declines. Keep checking battlemetrics every day or 2 and one will eventually wipe that interests you.

      I agree 100%. Adding shit like infinite weight and 10x XP and bs doesn't seem fun at all. Like the whole point of the game is to be challenging af and take some time. So that you actually have to try and be smart, yk? Making it SO easy like that defeats the purpose for me tbh, and it seems like it'll way more boring because you'll have everything in such a short amount of time.

Like think about it, in the Souls game, the combat makes sense, but in a game like Ark? That doesn't seem like it'll work at all, or be fun. Like maybe they have something up their sleeves, but it honestly doesn't seem like it'll work well. Ark just isn't that type of game to have a combat style like a Souls games.

      Id argue that rust has more world content than some of the ark maps, but rust is also more of a multiplayer, make up your own journey kind of game. Ark definitely leans towards the single player, story driven, go here and do this content. The multiplayer pvp scene just isn't as big as the pve scene in ark, for good reason.

    The people saying the game is good is lying just in case your wondering about buying it its very addicting and a creative game that i still play but its a god awful game if you try n play it competitively. If you dont play competitive ull find ur self restarting every day. On top of that the pvp is trash if you live in a cave ull get meshed(an unlegit method via going under the map to by pass ur defences) outside of being raided during a fight with an enemy player u can get antimeshed(die from nothing) or get stuck in their dino via the games terrible mechanics. Dieing from one of these bugs on offical means hours of work gone if you had an actual kit put together. This is just the start of it, gets much worse if you play pc with the insane amount of dupers, aimbotters, and godmode cheaters and the lack of wild card support means they wont get banned for it either.

I played official pvp and was offline raided during mid day on tue/wed literally everytime my tribe rebuilt. They weren't looking to pvp, stood nothing to gain from it, had superior numbers and dinos, and I had to work. They had literally no reason to be raiding us other than being toxic and they chose too. Since then I've played single player, which is a funny title because you can invite your friends to join you, and had fun. The game isn't nearly as broken as it's player base imo.

I played on official pvp for about a year recently before we got full wiped enough that my tribe decided as a whole to quit, so I definitely experienced my fair share of bugs/official pvp. By the time I was done with pvp I very rarely died to any wild dinos/bugs and kept what we called a pocket giga with at least 1300 melee on me at all times. I've been playing single player for only about a month because I knew fjordur was coming out.

The real question is 'should I play ark in 2022 and expect a full release game?' The answer is no. If the question is 'can I play ark in 2022 and still have fun?' Sure, just don't expect the best experience.
