Guest Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 " ARK is coming to mobile. what are your thoughts? " Bringing Ark to mobile is an interesting idea, but I fear it will further fragment the Ark community unless all versions of Ark are allowed to join in on the same multiplayer servers. Micro$oft and Sony need to keep their networks and games to themselves to protect their profits, and that unfortunately means games companies have to comply - or not exist on those platforms. iOS and Android control and protect their eco systems in different ways and wouldn't prevent gamers from joining together on different infrastructures. However, I can see that cpu and memory limitations might prevent all of Ark's features from working on a mobile device. It all plays conveniently into WC's hands because the die-hard Ark fan will buy all versions they need to carry on gaming. So fragmentation is great for commercialism, but costly for us gamers. Ark Park and Pix Ark add to the fragmentation :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cabal Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 Like the idea of it, yes. Even though WC does need to fix the core game code. Even with the low ping rate I can get, it’s not nice having the stagger effect happen every few mins. Best ping rate to date is 23, but with the stutter it’s more like using 28.8 dial up. So WD, you got your work cut out for ya’ll. Make it fun, and make it clean from the start. Otherwise ya’ll have a bunch of us gamers avoiding anything else you put out. As is am sure some gamers are avoiding WC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcoolbaugh Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 i think this could be a really fun twist to the ark but seem like every time bigger game make mobile apps changes the game it self in a whole different way saddly but i agree if you can do some research or check on you though and eggs and such like a support app cause do need to work and have semi of a life would be easier i think but second i love to see what they can do on a app as well so this is tricky .. for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pistoling Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 I hope it is executed well, from what I've been reading so far it'll allow those who consider themselves a little more casual to experience Ark, I know a lot of people who don't play on PC or the consoles because of the time commitment.

iDankEngine Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Official servers if they exist on this mobile app are going to be absolutely ruled by children playing during their school hours. Also are they going to set the turret limit to 5 for lag sakes Can't wait for crash-to-rock as in Ragnarok will not run at all on a phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And when ark was early access what is now legacy existed but upon a full release the new servers came out. Most likely what will happen for mobile. But I do see a heavier turret limit for mobile aswell as a possible structure limit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But besides no one does that on pvp unless its like 10 feet away from their base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rather of seen a fully supported app to check stuff within the ark game world on pc/console while you're not on. +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
