I wish someone would make a video discussing the history of ark and every controversy they ever did. There was so much bs, including the banning of GtJack3d and Hod gaming. The flyer nerf to balance flyers, which they then backtracked on with the introduction of griffins which could 1 shot anything at the time. Also the weird situation with selling the same game over and over as reskins such as Dark and Light, Ark Park, PixArk... They constantly did things to hurt their player base, but because it's such a niche community NOBODY exposed them for their behaviour. Some of it was absolutely insane. 7 years later and people are still complaining about meshing, but the devs don't do a thing.

[@HobNob-tr1nm]

PixArk was made by Snail Games which bought out Wildcard in like 2015. Even though the devs did help make it, the game was the idea of Snail Games and its unfair to blame the Wildcard devs for it.

[@nathaniels9141]

The flyer nerf was about the servers and people computers not be able to load fast enough. If you had a half decent speed wyvern or pt you could fly into someone base before it all loaded properly causing major problem. Every new map and dino was constantly busted OP strong assuming it was functional. When abberation first released you didn't have to feed or watch any babies. Stick them next to a map plant Z and it would feed and heal you baby. You're also missed how much the smart the community is and devs refused to acknowledge it. Like how the meshing fixes they tried to implement weren't even their fixes it was a community mod they stole.

you could totally make an ark iceberg, there really is so much shit on it. Its really too bad wildcard is the one who made ark, they fucking suck at making videogames and any other studio would have done a better job.

[@paladingeorge6098]

The reason SE doesn't have an ending is pretty simple; SE was released before even the Island had an ending, and they just never went back and added one to SE. If I remember correctly, Abberration was the first map to have an official ending and then they added the Overseer to the island to complement the release of Extinction.

[@50caltaco]

Broooo a fellow aberration enjoyer! I will die on this hill saying it’s the best map ever created for one simple, overlooked reason: no fliers. It makes it so you have to actually traverse and explore the entire map while prone to dangers constantly instead of flying above everything and only knowing 2% of the map.

I love aberration, it’s my favourite map. Can be annoying to get started, but overall quite fun

It’s the most unique map, due its verticality, exclusion of flying creatures and the unique ways of traversing the map. Less is more sometimes. Aberration and Scorched Earth (especially Aberration) do it really well.

[@jarmoliebrand2005]

Scorched was rushed, but it’s one of my favourite maps. Scorched Earth and Aberration both have the same principle: Less is more. Fewer biomes, fewer creatures, fewer options. You have to work with what little the map grants you. It’s amazing. Wyverns, egg stealing and desert biomes were a new thing back then. It was refreshing. Aberration’s map was the most unique one and it’s play style without flyers and with the verticality was incredible. There are aberration and scorched biomes in other maps, but like I said, less is more. They work better if you’re stuck with them and you have to work with what little you’ve been given, instead of avoiding deserts or aberration biomes unless you need something.

[@XxTaiMTxX]

I ended up having issues with both Scorched Earth and Aberration. My issues with Scorched Earth: Progression is near non-existent. If you transfer in from The Island, there's not a lot for you to do on this map. Your main goal will be to gather the 3 artifacts and Wyvern Eggs. Both of which can be done fairly easily once you've obtained flyers of any kind and have access to guns. The hardest enemies to kill are the Golems. The Wyverns themselves are massively overpowered and hauling a bunch to take out the final boss on the hardest difficulty isn't really that hard. But, you're "in limbo" for all of that time. Your goals and avenues for obtaining those goals are incredibly limited. Likewise, this map is one of the glitchiest there is with frequent crashes that can literally kill you if it happens while flying. Water, itself is "rare", but not really a problem as it only has the two uses: Cooking Medical Brews and staving off your own thirst. The rare spawn rate of Death Worms is also a problem. Couple this with the weather effects that also just "stop gameplay for a while". It's a map that could've benefitted from the existing formula of "The Island". Namely, 10 Artifacts, 3 bosses, one overboss. Unfortunately, the map suffers a lot from "pass through" syndrome. You're just passing through, nothing to see here, get your Wyverns and move on. The other new creatures aren't really worth obtaining... and there's only one Phoenix on the map, so if you want more, prepare to server hop or map reset. Not a lot of good places to build on the map either. Aberration is incredibly linear. I had fun for the initial hours of the map. Exploring the map was a massive priority since specific resources needed to be acquired to even TRAVERSE the map. But, in actuality, there are only two routes on the map. One is a long trek down to the boss room and the Rock Drakes. The other is a long trek into basically... nowhere. The "nowhere" is at least a nest so you can get infected and get your own Reaper if you want one. Oh, and I guess it has one of the artifacts you'll need as well. But, once you know the layout of the map, it's really quite simplistic and... boring? Again, there's not a lot to do here. Not a lot to explore. The sheer amount of "rare resources" you need to even fight the boss here mirrors that of The Island, but they spawn less frequently. Likewise, the "mushrooms" only serve as a minor temporary roadblock to anywhere. The earthquakes also become fairly annoying over time. So, it's a linear map you'll spend a ton of time on just from low spawn rates. It's another "Pass through" map. You're here only long enough to collect your Rock Drakes and the materials it takes to get to Rockwell. The boss fight of Rockwell itself was also... not fun. It's built more for a "group" to take on. But, at the same time, they limit what that group can bring so it becomes more of a "slog" than "interesting". It is literally "go in a circle around the arena, constantly moving, and then go to the center to deal damage, rinse and repeat until dead". It's also a massive hassle to even get your dinos down to the arena at all. Or through any actual point you could "teleport" your group of dinosaurs. This is the first map I ever actually needed "Tek Transporters" and I built a fair few for traversal and spent an exceptionally long time to get the element required to build them. For me, they were "okay" maps. I quickly grew tired of their particular "gimmicks" and "Lack of anywhere interesting to build or go". Then, when I wanted to leave them, it was exhausting to just gather the materials I needed to defeat the boss so I could move along. I'm having considerably more fun with Extinction, but I'm seeing some of the same issues as with previous maps... the materials you need to gather to even fight the bosses is insane. I actually miss the days of "The Island" when the materials were decently easy to come by if you knew what you were doing and all you REALLY needed was the artifacts. I dunno, I really liked "The Island". Lots of interesting places to build, a clear path of progression, that path of progression would often net you the resources you needed to fight the bosses, and then you could win. It took a really long time to leave The Island, but it was a clearly gated "open world" to an extent. Other maps don't follow that formula and the gameplay on those maps suffers as a result. Maybe those maps play differently as a "fresh" character. But, as someone who is "following the storyline" like myself, and transferring between Arks... they're not that great. Especially with no decent places to "set up a base".

[@XxTaiMTxX]

@@londonraptor-859 Yeah, the map likely feels a lot different if you're playing as a "fresh character" instead of a "transfer in" like I had been. The initial raptors in the game posed more of a threat to my friend and I than the Ravagers ever did. But, when you have nothing except some bows, they are pretty terrifying. Until we found an item box spawn and pulled our equipment out of it from the transfer. The Ravagers never posed a threat to us as a result and we quickly tamed them for usage. We also never had issues with Rock Drakes or Basilisks. Rock Drakes are easily spotted and have crap AI (though they do take several dozen shotgun shells to put down! Always bring a mount to kill them in a few hits!). We didn't have issues with Basilisks because they were such a rare spawn that we barely ever saw them and had trouble collecting them before we could "move on". Most of our Tames ended up murdering them fairly quickly when we did see them too. The two threats we DID have were: Reapers. We had to fight these to get their drops to even fight the boss. Otherwise, easily avoided for most of your time on the map since they don't "guard anything" of use or note. Radiation: Figuring out which dinos could stand it and getting the materials for the hazard suits was a pain. The mushrooms were an "interesting threat" until we figured out that nomming one of the gatherable mushrooms before encountering the mushrooms on the ground (or once you had been spored by them) meant they were basically zero threat at all. We ended up just building next to the river in the green zone because it was the only place with "enough flat land" to work with in terms of a base. After all, we needed a place to breed dinos, for all of our structures to refine metal and craft, and a dozen other things. Nowhere else offered near enough space for that. Aberration was also the map in which I learned "you need to shove some of the endgame crafting facilities into the obelisks to transfer to the next map, otherwise getting those materials to build them is going to be a slog". For us, the "fun" of the map quickly ran out as it was just two linear paths and there wasn't much to actually explore or do beyond "grind resources", of which we did a lot of... because the resource distribution on the map isn't "great". Maybe if we had come in on fresh characters, it would've been more fun. But, we came in as max level characters with stuff waiting for us to be "battle ready" and so there wasn't much to do other than "breed tames, gather resources, get the new creatures, and fight the boss". Oh, yeah, the light was an "interesting" mechanic for a bit, but after a while we just stopped caring about the light pets because you got more xp from killing all the Nameless than making sure they "stayed away". On top of which, the flying guys attracted to the light posed too many problems for us and so having our pets either not be "on" or leaving them at home ended up just being the smarter option for us. Which... rendered light in the game absolutely worthless to us.

Also WC kinda hates SE and thats also why we have sooo much content from that map on free Dlcs.

I have a question. Is that your actual face or just some random dudes face? I know it’s probably stupid but I would like to know. 0:51

[@Ruffles_vr]

Honestly I miss, the old days of ark when people would get along and not being toxic, from h itting there heads with a stone pick to taming a rex and destroying people even though I havent had ark till like 2019 or so I would wonder what it was like when it first came out!

[@natevanderw]

Thanks bro was fun to relive some of ARK

[@archerswansborough3358]

Ark has been the game I’ve played since I was young and this was an amazing video explaining it

[@ink6233]

God loves you all ❤

[@PetaPhile-hu2ze]

Shut up

[@crypticgecko9109]

I love it how you could ask anyone with any lengthy experience with ark when ark 2 is coming out and anyone will tell you any time other than 2023

[@alexandermichailow7097]

That was a really nice reminder of how great ark is

[@aidenmclaughlin1076]

I cannot begin to express how much I love Aberration. It’s the only one I’ve played on for years

[@Sharknado225]

Never heard of ark but great video

[@juanpineda1658]

The music be bringing back, waking up half asleep and putting that headset on mmm mis those days

[@jacobveesu]

After playing them all I loved ragnarok buuut then fjordur came out and it is my favorite by far. I've got the most hours and such on it and it was such a beutiful map. Also the music on it was amazing

[@jxey_7557]

I didn’t see it when it happened, but huge congrats on hitting 100k subs

[@phnx_tom5400]

Aberration by far my favourite map. It has that unique alien Flora with all that bioluminiscence stuff like the Blue Zone, which is in my eyes the most beautiful area in the entire game. I also really like the progression between each zone and the cool looking but highly dangerous creatures like Reaper, Rock Drake and Basilisks. Even the new mechanics with the Light Pets, Toxic Mushrooms and Radiation are fun because you have to really understand the map and biomes with their unique dangers. Abb feels really like a hard Survival Game because everything wants to kill you

[@lawsonanderson7450]

Dude what a vibe I love ark so much and ab is the best map by far it's said to play ark with so many people who don't even know the story

[@ronaldfmcdonald]

Dude I’m only just remembering how much of a banger all of the music for this game is

[@MustardSkaven]

Aberration was also my favourite. Had the best time starting out on that map with some friends.

[@BozoLumo]

You're spot on, 1 year later and Ark 2 is set to released 2030.

[@coldterror7576]

As someone who has never played, I was lost after minute 2 as I only thought it was dinosaurs mixed with rust

[@Lurium08]

I loved aberration so much that I just die inside of sadness when I look at how underrated it is

[@vritra8881]

Video was great, seems like yesterday since Ragnarok & Valguero were released and sadly arc 1's ends here I hope theyll continue the story in a good manner!

[@guandajin1657]

sums it up pretty well

[@HHYO_]

all i needed

[@diablo4371]

8:13 that bgm gives me memories 😢

[@SingaporeLyfe]

nice delve into the maps' histories. the only history of ark i remember well is when people used to build on the volcano in island map during beta, then wildcard announced the "eruption" of the volcano which basically destroyed all bases built on said volcano some time after full release.
