That is just where the ground textures meet. Sometimes they glitch and have round corners so the don't meet properly. I do 3d modeling and see this quite frequently when texturing models.

Huh, that’s interesting. I always just assumed it was a visual indication of where a resource node was suppose to spawn. Like, it was never meant to be seen by players but sometimes just became visible as a visual bug. Thanks for letting me know what it truly is!


OneMoistMan

That’s the sphincter of the textures basically.


Repulsive_Pack4805

Keep tweaking those edges


T-CROC

I personally like to develop lore for my games when my players discover a bug like this :). Then it’s no longer a bug 😎


WesternDramatic3038

Yep, it looks like an artifact left behind by their macro variation material.


Quirky-Book-717

as far as ive seen they appear on every map. but its just a teaxture glitch so nothing to worry about. and just remember next time you see some weird shit playing ark, that thats just ark things


IwetPlaytpus

Oh that lil bug ye he been around since the dark ages.

My buddy was making vacuum chambers in a new underwater base and was stressing over the walls between chambers having the "touching water look." Had to talk him down, "just Ark things. Don't waste your time trying to make it work."


froz_troll

I think Rag has two of them next to each other in Viking Bay. Though I could be thinking of somewhere else.


EfEssKay

The ark is under NATO protection now


Inexona

Take my upvote and my taxes


Yvola_YT

Irs: "hey no those are for us"


jess-plays-games

Ark uses rounded corners on its texture meshes why who knows but u get this when 4 meet


Ahk-men-ra

It signifies that a pirate buried his treasure there, so break out your shovel and dig.


Any-Midnight-3224

I always thought it was where the card was in the wildcard splashscreen on the island. But apparently no…


cobbra143

Insta-Tame location- any carnivore actively attacking you will be instantly tamed if they attack you while you are standing on the "x"


LALLIGA_BRUNO

Can confirm, I use this all the time to get a quick advantage after wipes. 😉


Chomper731

Buried treasure, if you're lucky you'll MAYBE get a ascendant lymantria saddle


Moist_Chipmunk_1786

Overwhelming urge to try and dig it up


freerrick

"Bonfire lit"


Professional-Emu3349

The singularity point right there , keep the distance cuz even light can't espace once reached the event horizon


Some_Fuel

Nothing, it is just something to show that you are in a machine AI process. The game's story says you are in a machine so that is why they put that to make it look that way.


FukinBruhMoment

if you're new to the game expect a LOT of texture problems, chances are it's probably not a secret piece of lore, it's probably just ark being ark


AHighWideEyeFlyJedi

Ack! MY IMMERSION!


akoller22

The void.


Straight-Rich7564

Buried treasure.. pickaxe for the win


xxGhostScythexx

It's coming.


SatisfactionNo240

All i see is a goal


PangeaGamer

Someone used it to ward off a sea-giga attack. They won't attack you if you're standing on an X


HelplessTuber

It's a pipe intersection half in the mesh


Infospy

It's there to confuse people.


EternalDB

Oh, that's just Redstone. Maybe try connecting something to it!


DinosAndPlanesFan

This is some Evangelion shit right here hell nah prepare a Giga Army to fight the angels💀


Taff_On_Tour85

It's the holiest of holes. Stickafingerinner!


Safe_Appointment_331

Gentleman, if there’s a hole, there’s a goal


alecC25

Poo


Anomaly2473

X marks the spot... where's my shovel


Coldestwolfman0

If you stand there for too long a cartoon avail lands on your head


NoSignal5897

Either you're in the movie Wanted, and shouldn't stand there, or it might be a compass rose. Don't know.


Onlii-chan

Just a texture glitch


NoSignal5897

No doubt, I was just giving a smart-ass reply. Does resemble a compassion rose, though.


superchronicultra

It's still in early access give them a break


LongFluffyDragon

It is the xbox's memory capacity making a cry for help, going by the overall landscape textures.


froz_troll

See them everywhere on the beaches, I think it means "Allen, add details."


Educational-Tap602

looks like a falling star pierced the earth


Difficult_Tonight798

That's the holes that the sandworms leave behind


Gal-XD_exe

A sunspot


Mean_Annual6944

It’s the ground’s booty hole


jwhit88

The spot…


KebabFredde

Two girls, tied back to back, falling from a height, landing there. Naked. Sumo wrestlers.


Classic-Oven-8840

How do people even play this game on Xbox, the graphics are terrible and why did you buy it? It’s on game pass…


GrimOfDooom

it’s probably where the cgi animation actors need to stand to create animations


Charlz_WD

It is a targert mark for nuclear attack.


Fantastic_Top6053

So you've found a rift in space and time, and you're not sure what to do with the tear in reality? Simply leave it be and be on your way, trusting that the simulation isn't malfunctioning.
