aggravating Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 it feels worse then what it was 6 months ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olivar Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Performance has been increased a lot for me lately. Still getting the occasional crash now and then when swapping between maps, but otherwise the game runs really smooth on my pc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pommer Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 My FPS has improved greatly, and I’m now running on epic compared to medium which I was running a year ago, getting 45-60ish now. I do play solo on my passwordlocked rented server though, so not to sure how my FPS would be on officials Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronosphere Posted November 24, 2017 Author Share Posted November 24, 2017 aight, yeah am same hovering around 40 -60 in high so thats good but still that fps drop when a base comes still bites the bullet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodsman Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 physics collision for dinos has definitely changed, mostly for the better. less people playing now so that helps too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DJRone89 Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 In terms of server performance, it would depend on what game mode you will be playing. Official servers are experiencing some of the worst lag ever, though this will be improved with the upcoming turret nerf (check the mega threads and join the discussion). The core game mechanics have definitely improved over the past year though some day one bugs still exist to the extent people are pretty rife in complaints about them - snap points are the bain of my Ark experience. Overall the game is in a much better shape than what it was but it’s the issues that have remained without any indication of a potential fix that probably annoys players the most. Official players will have the most to say in regards to the game however that is not a true representation of its entirety but will give you an idea.

Juniperty Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 I rented an xbox server from Nitrado for my family members and I. I see way less. We are on Ragnorak map rented 10 slots.on official pve there still lag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vrallox Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 On PC the game loads faster. Medium graphics settings seem to have improved a bit as well. Much more stable. Still lots of bugs though and they increase as you increase the settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mctoozle Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 The load times and rendering has greatly improved from 6 months ago. If you don't have SSD or you have an older gfx card you are gonna experience some slow performance. I have SSD and the game loads in seconds. I have a gtx 1080 and it runs 40-100+ fps in epic. Playing on official servers right now is gonna be annoying due to base loading & over population... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maps load in less then 20 seconds, boss rooms load/teleport instantly, and the game runs pretty smooth on high settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olivar Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 @Chronosphere : What kind of gameplay are you actually looking for? Do you want to get involved again on officials? Unofficial? Single Player? PvE/PvP ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It feels much worse than it did 6 months ago, most of the time you will be doing everything 2 or 3 times. Yep! rubber banding is still a thing, floating dinos is still a thing, underwater creatures beaching themselves is still a thing, tames sinking into foundations is still a thing, the list goes on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KillaMrB Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Most of what the guys above have said is true. Depending on what Ark experience your looking for is also dependant on what performance you'll recieve. Lag seems to be better on unofficial if ran on decent hardware, official is just plain old aids with regards to performance. I can only speak from my own personal experience but i've seen many people leaving due to alot of issues on the whole. I suppose if you get a close group of friends on a private server you'll have lots of fun...apart from that i wouldn't bother...that's just my opinion though so take it as you will.

Umber0010 Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 I recommend playing In-official, ut's actually stable a majority of the time (in my experience atleast) and out of all of the bugs @reddotjellytot listed, I've only really experienced that last one apon logging in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yekrucifixion187 Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 The new Rag map is gorgeous but has several issues and seems laggier than the island, scorch, or the center. That could be due to over population but I think it still has a lot of refinement to go as well. The game is up and down on performance. In the same weekend after the update it felt like rendering was so much smoother coming into our base. Then the next day I blue screen in the wide open ocean with no bases anywhere in render distance. Occasional messed up dino spawns exist but to a less degree. Dino's being glitched into the floor and getting stuck on invisible objects is still frequent. Render distance has improved for wyvern's, rex's, and bronto's as opposed to even 2 months ago, but behemoth gates still just pop into frame causing massive lag and occasional DC's. There isn't anything really new as far as game play goes. They added the first Ark's end boss but outside of that it's Ark. Tame, breed and raise, build, harvest. Repeat until you get what you want. These are all official PVE PS4 viewpoints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaprosuchus Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 performance is way way up and it's always a good time to come back if you enjoy unofficial servers. the official servers are as always a laggy dino capped mess on pve, and the official pvp is full of a bunch of whiners and broken turrets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
