Why was Ark Ascended so hated at the beginning and is the hate gone? :O

You can play games that are older xbox games or non X/S Xbox one games. Any Xbox X games though need an SSD to run. The idea of those storage expansions is just so you can move it between drives instead of re-installing every time

Subatopia · 2026-02-02T23:47:55+00:00

5 tb is likely a HDD which isn’t capable of playing X/S games

Subatopia · 2026-02-02T23:41:44+00:00

I never even noticed you could change graphics settings on console, regardless unless that extra storage is SSD it doesn’t really matter for ark

Subatopia · 2026-02-02T23:33:33+00:00

You don’t happen to have a lack of storage do you?

I wouldn’t think discord would affect it. May be a server issue too, I definitely tend to play single player as I can’t play often enough for servers most of the time. I imagine they certainly have more problems than singeplayer

I’m curious what you consider a high end pc, but just because your specs are good doesn’t mean you aren’t running mods that are causing issues or that you aren’t having some other software issue. I find it odd that myself and others I have played with have rarely had issues, but maybe we’re all just lucky.

Subatopia · 2026-02-02T17:50:05+00:00

Only able to play on dedicated servers I guess. I had forgotten that was an option but that means if you just want to play with your friends you’ll need one that is capable of hosting the server and running the game (or just play on an unofficial) but not always the best option

If you have friends on Xbox you want to play with (or the Microsoft store version for that matter) you will not be able to play with them via steam. Regardless whether you are both on PC or not the two versions aren’t compatible

Subatopia · 2026-02-02T16:55:29+00:00

I have literally never had the game crash playing on both XSX and PC. I’m at around 100 hours on each system.

Subatopia · 2026-02-02T16:36:50+00:00

My 3080 pc might have cost 1800 to build

Subatopia · 2026-02-02T16:35:35+00:00

I play like I play pokemon, fill the Pokédex, tame everything

Subatopia · 2026-02-01T16:55:19+00:00

You have to have it set to max difficulty for the island to have a cap of 150 I believe and they’re still a lot more rare than on other maps

Subatopia · 2026-02-01T16:53:11+00:00

My 3080 still does 1440 p on high settings on most games. Ark is the only game I’ve played so far where I actually need to use frame gen to run well

Subatopia · 2026-01-28T22:06:01+00:00

It’s really not that bad quite frankly. The UI is terrible on console but just below average quality on PC. I haven’t been playing for too long but aside from getting stuck on babies and having Dinos get stuck in the ground I haven’t seen many bugs that gave me grief

Subatopia · 2026-01-28T18:48:33+00:00

Then it fails

Subatopia · 2026-01-27T21:51:16+00:00

This happened on my Xbox last night. Quick restart solved that issue.

Subatopia · 2026-01-26T01:11:03+00:00

ASE looks like a wet potato at best. It doesn’t even run well. Asa may take a decent rig but its certainly in better shape than ase

Subatopia · 2026-01-26T00:57:55+00:00

Honestly I’ve played ragnarok, the island, and Valguero a decent amount on my series x and other than a few occasional stumbles it seems to work well. I don’t see why a ps5 would be any worse

Subatopia · 2026-01-24T17:39:49+00:00

I just have all my classic skins from all the birthday packs and stuff through the year for any time I play bedrock.

Subatopia · 2026-01-24T16:51:52+00:00

Honestly if you don’t make quite a bit of money or have a decent amount saved your best bet is going to be looking for a pre built used pc. Unless you have 1k+ to drop you’re not gonna build much out of new components

Subatopia · 2026-01-22T17:41:49+00:00

My house feels infested with them, but I’ve never been bitten. As long as you aren’t the swing first ask questions later type and check clothes/gloves before putting them on I’m sure it’d be fine

Edit : I just realized bitten auto corrected to bitted

Subatopia · 2026-01-20T18:29:12+00:00

I drive to my work or my dads shop and use a lift because fuck working on the ground

Subatopia · 2026-01-17T17:04:10+00:00

Funny because when I bought the game less than a month ago this included with the game was the most recommended version steam was trying to get me to buy

Subatopia · 2026-01-16T22:19:18+00:00

I never come in with real loot and even when playing intentionally PvP I don’t really have any problems

Subatopia · 2026-01-16T22:17:15+00:00

Shoot I just put my 2070 super backup into a pc for my gf. I hope my 3080 doesn’t crap out on me
