Wow, that looks like a good enhancement to the game!   I hope it's good - I might want to jump in?

For those that played the original, how did you like it, and are you going to get this?





 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. 

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

 

Tell me a funny joke!

Looks great, though I'm curious about any UI improvements they may have made for the XB1 port. The PC version definitely needs them xD

General UI in-game:

I really hope they sort it out for PC, they'll likely have the console version sorted fine and dandy.





Mankind, in its arrogance and self-delusion, must believe they are the mirrors to God in both their image and their power. If something shatters that mirror, then it must be totally destroyed.

Ark: Survival Evolved Xbox One Getting Two-Player Local Split-Screen

 

 

"Many developers are abandoning split-screen local play, but we couldn't stomach that for Ark!" Studio Wildcard creative director and co-founder Jesse Rapczak told GameSpot. "Friends and families can look forward to working together to survive the environment, tame its inhabitants and unravel the mysteries of the island--all from the same couch.

 

Although fans will have to wait until 2016 for Ark's split-screen mode, the Xbox One version will support another unique feature right out of the gate tomorrow.

Players can use a second Xbox One to host their own 50-plus player server. Of course, you'll need to have a second Xbox One for this, but as Rapczak points out, hosting a server would normally require "an expensive PC server and a lot of management headaches."
