ARK: Survival Evolved Review

ARK: Survival Evolved is a vast and ambitious survival game, with a wide range of activities and features to explore. However, it is also a game that is plagued by technical issues, bugs, and a steep learning curve.

Despite its flaws, ARK: Survival Evolved can be a very rewarding experience. The game features a rich ecosystem of dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures, which can be tamed and used for transportation, combat, and resource gathering. ARK also features a deep crafting system, allowing players to create a wide range of weapons, tools, and structures.

The game's multiplayer mode is where it truly shines. Players can join tribes with other players to build settlements, tame dinosaurs, and raid other tribes. ARK's PvP mode is can be extremely competitive and brutal, but it is also incredibly rewarding to work together with your tribe to achieve victory.

Score: 7/10
  • Rich ecosystem of dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures
  • Vast and ambitious open world
  • Rewarding multiplayer experience
  • Steep learning curve
  • PvP can be brutal
  • Technical issues

Servers Closing soon. Beware. Only playable on unofficial servers or single player after August 2023.

Overall the game is fairly decent. I only play single player as had issues with Official servers.
  • Lack of bug fixes in current version of game.
  • Being pillered out of base building on official servers

I love this game, mods make it even better. Who doesn't want to ride a t Rex into battle leading an army of raptors while your tribe soars overhead with dragons. It's the best thing since sliced bread.

I have wanted this game for years now I finally got it on steam it only took about like 2 minutes and boom the game started downloading. I would give the website 10/10 so I would recommend this website for anyone looking to buy a game for a cheap price.

Absolutely one of the best games I've ever played! If you get bored, just isntalled some Mods and the fun goes on. And who doesn't love dinosaures? They are so much fun to tame, ride, feed and breed :)

The best game out there if you ask me, with the free maps alone, you have thousands of hours of playtime when you "clear" the maps all. There is so much to do, the quality is less but this certainly does not make the playing experience any worse.

Hosting your own servers is less popular, there are often problems and often updates that cause problems.
But if you play on a properly functioning server, it is really a great game.

And with the many DLCs you can still have several thousand hours of playtime, it's really unbelievable that a game can be so extensive.

100% recommended
  • thousands of hours of playtime
  • Alot of (free) maps
  • Alot of extra DLC's
  • So many things to do
  • Just everything is a +

Fun to Play with Friends! Not so Optimized.. But It's OK if you like Survival Games and the era of Dino's! Graphic's are Stunning! The Mehanics and Physichs are Amazing! But if just the game is more Optimized I would give a better Feedback!

I have it a score of 0 (ZERO) out of 100. -- meaning this website. Stop listing a game that will never be in stock, and stop using big games to play your little bait and switch games, as is what'd going on here. Let's bait them here for a ridiculously low price for a popular game and then they'll see it's sold out, not wonder if you're lying about ever having it in stock again at this same low price, and since they're here they'll go browsing at all the other games. It's the most elementary, sorta douch-bag way of getting business out there.

I will say 1 thing
People can run with 180% movement speed on officials and most servers are laggy as sht
You WILL be playing on low graphics if you want to have more than 30 fps even with a 1080 (when playing online) cause there are huge bases and a lot of animals in there
Taming takes too long and pvp is not the most balanced

But for some fkin reason i still play this so , watch some videos before u buy it

Actually good game, but if you can become upset very easily I don´t recommend you this game. Like believe me I have some practice with it lmao. Otherwise this game is absolutely brilliant! Play it with friend, you will have better experience.:)
  • Good multiplayer experience.
  • You can play it solo.
  • Good building experience.
  • You can have your own server
  • Good fighting experience
  • Can turn to rage game.
  • If they raid you you will be actually really mad.
  • There are raptors and other dinosaurs who will try to kill ya everywhere.
  • Very much bugs
  • Shit servers with 1000 ms/s

It's entertaining and an outstanding game to play with your friends. It is a harsh environment, but it is worth playing you get to experience how the dinosaurs walk around, and it's exciting. All in all, it is a beautiful game, and I recommend it to anyone!

I will just say ASSERTION FAILED...I think I bought a game for free because I just can't run it all the time CRASH when I want to enter the server.There is no concrete reverberation anywhere and the game does nothing about it ... Very badly done by ark developers.

The game is not what i expected, firstly the graphics are so bad they gave me nausea while playing, no joke.
The IA is spongy, it looks like you're fighting against robots with a dinosaur skin... All along the game you have no objective or so, you just farm to have better equipement and a good base which can (& will) be raided by some full stuffed players. The 3rd person camera really s*cks, you can't fight/loot/ride while on. I will not talk about all the cliping/graphic glitches...

The only good things are the crafting system similar to Rust, the metabolism system where you can die from cold, fatigue, poison, etc... & the interesting biomes.
  • Surviving system
  • Ergonomic crafting system
  • Large biomes
  • Flat graphics
  • Braindead AI
  • Pointless open-world
  • Lots of glitches
  • Full of cancer players

The worst game I have ever bought or played, I cant believe I waited for this and all of the DLC to install.
It is unbelievably terrible, with no actual point in the game.

If you were ever going to consider buying this game... DONT!!

Buy RUST instead.

A good game to play with others or yourself however the base version is designed around team (tribe) play in the terms of limited amount of item unlocks and difficulty. Very easy to modify this though to make it more single player friendly. The graphics are great and each new creature seems fresh. I was blown away at points at their size or model design, it is an extremely good looking game. The natural hair growth is a nice touch too. The fact you can, and should, tame dinos which each have a purpose, from land/air/water mounts to harvesters and attackers, adds a lot of depth to learning about what works and what does not.

The difficulty curve is extremely punishing and sometimes out right unfair. One example of this is spawning in a designated "easy" area of the map to be immediately attacked by a dinosaur as you come out of your wake up animation and find yourself dead before you can do much more than look at your predator. This happened on various occasions and with all your loot being tied to your corpse which after a second death no longer has a marker, it becomes a frustrating matter which is extremely off putting. I had to restart on multiple occasions and as my skill improved, so did my survival time however that does not make it player friendly.
  • Graphics
  • Model/Creature Design
  • NPC Taming Uses
  • Easily Moddable
  • Tough Difficulty Curve
  • NPC's Spawn Killing
  • Hard to track lost equipment
  • Not aimed at single play

ARK ist wirklich ein tolles Spiel. Man hat viele Möglichkeiten. Jedoch ist es z.B. im Singleplayer relativ langweilig deswegen meine Empfehlung: Spielt mit min. 1 mitspieler da sonst das Spiel leider relativ langweilig wird.

Very badly executed/optimized game! I have an i5 8400, GTX 1060 Gaming X 6gb and 16GB of RAM and the game still runs awful, even on the lowest preset you don't get much FPS. Except the performance of the game there are tons of bugs aswell.
