Congratulations to the developer for the great work, as it is one of the best triple-A for Linux.

Funny game better than survival on TV. It would be worth spending money on making this game.

I noticed on Linux the game hangs for ages..... If you open processes its ram usage was increasing and it had quite high disk read, so I just left it running and came back to it and it worked fine after configuring the settings abit.

[@AJReissig]

I run into the same thing. Ark does run better on Windows, no doubt about it, but its good to see us linux players do have a chance to play.

Hey thanks for the video, on Steam and reddit they say this doesnt run in Linux well, broken textures, but mostly performance complaints and it doesnt have the best graphics...I don't care about graphics, if I turn down to lowest settings, is it playable? (All textures like water render correctly, etc?)

My setup is an AMD FX-8320 with Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti graphics card. I can run 1080p with mid level graphics and have no issues. I can run high graphics, but it can bog down a bit if there are big battles with multiple dinos. To me, the mid-level graphics are just fine.

@@AJReissig OK thanks!
