Forums - Gaming - Ark SE: 640p-720p on PS4, 720p-1080p on Pro, 720p on Xbone

Developers with a low skill level that have come up with a good game concept/design. It's not that it even looks that great and still it has a slow frame rate. If they got a different developer to port the game to Switch that could actually be the best version technically because the original developers are so hopeless. That would be so funny to see and annoy so many people. Definitely seems a game best left until it's gone through about 20 update patches and costs peanuts to buy.

I've played a lot of ARK: Survival Evolved with friends on the PC and it can definitely be a lot of fun (especially with access to the modding community). Still, there's so many games I've played that I wish they could just hand to Blizzard for six months to optimize them for weaker hardware lol, there's definitely truth to the usual Steam games featuring great ideas but less than stellar execution.

One thing I've always loved about Blizzard is how great they're able to make games look that can run on remarkably weak hardware, and that balance seems to take a lot of technical skill and experience that the average smaller and new teams lack.



Wow, this game looks horrible. It looks like a badly made mod... how can they charge $60 for this piece of shit?



Kinda makes me wonder how PUBG will run on the vanilla XBox One and perhaps later on base ps4. From what I gather that hasn't been optimized much either.

Is this the real cost of early access? To keep people interested and buying it's more important to keep adding features and new content, with less or no time left over to actually make it run well. Stability updates don't sell early access games.

I have always found Blizzard games not to be class-leading in terms of sheer visual fidelity.
What they successfully do though is use the assets they do have to maximum effect.

Overwatch for instance isn't a graphics powerhouse, but artistically it is full of charm which covers up it's deficiencies.

Well yes, I'd never claim that any of their games are cutting edge in regards to graphics (outside of the cinematics which, obviously, they're as good as anyone at). They are, however, about as savvy at designing an art style that looks beautiful and distinctly "Blizzard" without straining the hardware as anyone outside of Nintendo. That has always impressed me about them; they make their games available to the masses while still putting in the effort to make them look great as well.



Conclusion , don't buy this games, even i have avoid it on PC.



To be fair.. Ark is the new Crysis for this generation..



didnt they say they where going for epic/highest settings 60fps on xbox one x, i highly doubt they will be able to with this horrible optimalization, cuz thats all it is lol
