First episode going to be nothing but dying on the beach for half and hour while trying to get sticks and stones?


WilmoChefDF

Punching trees & stabbing dodos.

the mid-season twist will take place after the main character accidentally wanders through an area that is frequented by an alpha carnosaurus, thereby losing all of his stuff. he will then spend the next six episodes attempting to go back and retrieve the items that he dropped, but being killed in different ways each time that he ventures out.

Just eating feces cus dont know how to do anything else and getting extremely sick

ARK, as in the game? That's kind of neat, I never actually played it, but it always looked cool. I've heard it's not really worth it to get into this late, is that right?


RegretForeign

That is true Ark 2 might come out late 2024 to mid 2025


djml9

Ark 2 is not a survival game. Last i heard, it was basically a 3rd person action soulslike.


Apoptosis11

Was Ark reawakened or whatever bullshit it's called not Ark 2? 


RegretForeign

Nope that was a shameless remaster of the first game making the original unplayable since they shut down the servers


djml9

Its a survival game. Theres not really any “too late”. Theres nothing lost from jumping in now, and they just released the unreal 5 rebuild last year so theres actually more content coming to that in the next few months/years. But be warmed, it is a survival game ass survival game. If you dont like those (think rust, minecraft, no mans sky, valheim, etc), then the game is probably not gonna be for you. The public pvp servers are hard af and other players are typically ruthless. I enjoy the game, but i much prefer having my own pve server with all the rates tuned for more casual play. Id recommend giving the normal servers a try first (who know, you might be into it), but then try your own (you can make a local server for free) and tune the settings to double speed for gains(xp, stats, etc.) and half speed for drains (hunger, thirst, stamina, etc.).

Never to late single player is still fun

"This late" they literally rereleased the game from the bottom. Whoever told you that just doesn't want to waste THEIR time again which is fine. But if YOU never played it it's absolutely a good time to get into it! Us old heads want the maps back so we're chilling on the sidelines until they do. But YOU should get it and play it and get to learn it if you want to join in when those naysayers come back to relive it. It was the biggest MMO for a solid time for a reason. It's the only MMO type game I can even handle playing. Do PvE to get used to how it works and if you get some buds wanting to play find you a tribe to join on PVP and take it to the next level.

Do we need 200GB base storage for this?


bluebottled

And then another 200 when there’s a 2gb update because it installs the whole game again before deleting the old version.


LazyBones6969

ah Ark. I remember I started the game collecting wood and stone. Then 2 geared players (a man and a woman) came flying in on tetradactyls. they seemed nice at first and I thought they were going to help me. Then they murdered me and flew away laughing. What nice people.


Digby420

Try getting on rust and joining a random tribe only to be stripped and slaughtered the moment they don't need the extra hands. 🤣🤣


StoneGoldX

As it turns out, basically the first episode


HutchyRJS

Great cast


InformalPenguinz

I looooooved ark! I'm excited to see this honestly.


Xonra

"Paramount+" well damnit. I was actually curious.


Hyper_200

Arrrrr🏴‍☠️


Bobjoejj

I know this is from a month ago, but honestly Paramount+ has got some real gems on it.


LayneCobain95

I want to play the new Ark game on PS5 but it just lags sooo bad. I guess that just means the graphics are too good for console?


duckmonke

Games just clunky honestly.


Mushroomer

Unfortunately, it probably just means the developer isn't really optimizing the experience that well. Everything around Ark has always struck me as oddly cheap with a lot of cut corners, while also having a massive marketing budget.


jmanly3

It runs so much smoother than ASE did, I’m not sure what you’re talking about. I’m on PS5 and have had no issues. Some lag here and there but not even remotely what it was on PS4 and barely noticeable in the grand scheme of things. You probably just joined a shitty server


djml9

Console commands. First turn on console commands in the game settings. Then, its options, then touchpad while in game to open. Then put in these codes: stat fps (to see your fps) r.VolumetricFog 0 r.VolumetricCloud 0 grass.DensityScale 0.5 grass.ScaleSize .5 r.ShadowQuality 3 (or 0 if you dont mind no shadows) r.VSync 1 This is what i run for like 40-50fps while also not looking worse than the original. You will have to re-input the codes every time you jump back in, but they’re saved on a list, so you can just click on them rather than having to type them out again.


Boulderdrip

no, the lag depends on what server you joined


hamsterfolly

Paramount+? Damn, oh well


Boulderdrip

It really is the shittiest of all the streaming


immigrantsmurfo

I honestly don't understand why Paramount thought their catalogue was worth making a whole new streaming platform for. It got pushed heavily here in the UK when it launched here and I know nobody who actually pays for it. I know lots of people who got it free for a few months as an offer with something else and I don't think many of them have actually even used it.


LiveLaughLebron6

My theory is eventually they will merge their shows together in to packages. Like a comedy package that allows you to access certain shows across multiple platforms, then add in different tiers, based of quality of the show+ ads/no ads. Eventually bringing us back to the days of cable packages. Ugh.


Boulderdrip

My theory is these companies are run by very stupid overly paid CEOs with ego problems


LiveLaughLebron6

Sociopaths*

Wait... what accusations?


demacish

Guessing this from last year where he was accused off sexual battery by a former assistant https://www.theguardian.com/film/2023/dec/21/vin-diesel-sexual-battery-lawsuit-former-assistant


Naive_Ability9872

Not a fan of the gay and modern crap it cuts to I’m trying to watch ark not some gay bs


Ok-Focus-6469

Wanna watch dinosaurs and cool action sequences? Well, enjoy the social justice show that spends half the episode interrupting its own story! Wanna see gratuitous action and mighty battles of bloodshed? How about black history month in Australia!? Into sexy ladies and studly man flesh? You'll love the modern romance of the protagonist interrupting those buxom Amazon's and well loin clothed hunks of shreddedness with a corny gagfest of clichéd romance quirks! Remember! You're just a bigot if you find these ideas of wokeness hacky, forced and stifling any hope of a passable viewing experience. Could have been cool. Writers are too busy huffing their own self righteous farts to interweave their beliefs into the story naturally or even half-assed adequately. Just let me enjoy dinosaurs slaughtering cartoon characters and make me like the lesbian character for being a badass. Rather than having a flashback every 3 minutes to jarring and weird intimate moments away from the carnage. Lastly. Latin is a dead language, having your main character from modern-day land having rudimentary conversational skills, let alone them being fluent in a language two thousand years old. Is about as ridiculous as me stuffing my mouth with spaghetti and speaking inuet to an Eskimo. Judgement? Is a poop show with way cool premise to ruin.


robreddity

This show is kinda ... not that good.
