ARK Survival Evolved

I guess that extra 5 bucks makes a huge difference. Game looks cool for sure but would rather wait for full release seeing how ea games are somewhat annoying from time to time.
 
I've been playing it for a few months now. Got a lvl 96 Rex :D
 
As with any game in Alpha, the optimization isn't great. But in the last few patches it has improved a lot. 2 patches ago they improved it 40%. I'd say I get about 35-45FPS.

Just picked it up. Seems apparent it was derived from the movie Riverworld, which is based on Philip Jose Farmer's To Your Scattered Bodies Go ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/To_Your_Scattered_Bodies_Go ). All well and good, As I enjoyed both. Of course they've added dinosaurs here.

Anyway to save yourself dozens of painful deaths, read this:

Pay attention to that tip about starting out in the southern climes. North is inhospitable ('dozens of painful deaths'). When I get up a couple of more levels I'll check in and see if TBG will have a group. Hope my character transfers from the solo game.

$30 on Steam these days, and it's still in development.
