If you're a discerning buyer, you're likely aware of the power of a "Vocal Minority", wherein people who are loudly upset or opposed to something will smear a project and change it's public perception..

That's what people are trying to do with ARK.

But you know what? The Game is great, the DLC is worth your money, and there are thousands of hours of fun to be had in this game with friends, family, or strangers. You could even play the game singleplayer and build amazing creations (Though I'd recommend some mods :) )

I won't argue for it's staying power, but I'm happy with this game and I recommend it, hell, I recommended it to my Grandmother in April and now she has 1300 hours played and counting, in the DLC included.

Yes, I sent my 70 year old Gma to live alone in Scorched Earth.. and she ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ flourishes, she tells me sometimes that it's easier than the Island. She's put 500 hours into it so far, if that's not a glowing recommendation what is?

ARK: Introduce it to your Gma.

Trying it during the Free Weekend 10-15-2016

I like it, it's got a lot of customizability that we've come to expect from United Front Games (Modnation Racers, Sleeping Dogs).

The gameplay is simple, it really amounts to smashing everything (including enemies and store fronts) and grabbing the loot.

There are 2 modes atm on the same map, They are 3 v 3, and the objective is the same: Achieve the loot (money) goal first.

One mode is mostly an arena with upgrades, loot, buffs, drops, and enemies. You need to work together in order to win teamfights, it's a bit like a standard MOBA arena with a timelimit, eventually the jewelry stores are lootable and they will decide the game.

The other mode has the same goal but there are walls throughout the area that have to be smashed through and your secondary objective is securing the Box that comes from drops, if you secure a box you net $10,000 which goes a long way to your goal. So it's like capture the flag modes of other games in a way.

The combat is fun, what some people call a "Rock Paper Scissors" affair of Smash Dodge Grab, There's also a counter system that is effective and devastating, but I'm still a newb and bad at it.

The nuance of the combat is down to:

The weapons (There are 4 tiers of weapons that you unlock as the match progresses, each tier can be upgraded with a choice of one of two mods, and they come in different classes depending on your character (Gang leader) Heavy, Light, and Ranged. Special shoutout to the animators, the combat animations are pretty cool and mostly varied.

the skills (each character has 2 skills and a rallying cry skill, be it heals, charge attacks, or molotovs),

your gang makeup (You have a lieutenant and 3 other gang members with you as AI backup, the Lt is customizable and has it's own talent tree)

--

Honestly, I would buy this game if I weren't broke as a joke, it has satisfying combat and it has potential to expand.
Gang leaders, maps, and modes are still being worked on.

There is also bots to practice with, so don't feel bad about trying it out :)

Smooth gameplay, I like the card upgrade system, people feel just the right shade of killable.

It's great that it's free, I hate the single game mode that seems to be in the open beta (am I wrong? I'll look it up later) Payload is pretty bland as far as modes go. But, the maps are great, there's a lot of opportunity for flanking, and that's the name of my playstyle, get around the enemy, I love going on 20+ killing sprees with Skye I think her name is.

TLDR: Easy recommend, much better than feared, easily scratches DayZ itch with more fluid movement/gameplay but ultimately less features/systems at the moment.

Once upon a time I ♥♥♥♥ on this game internally, I bought DayZ and figured that though it wasn't great, it was better than this thing, this blatant DayZ clone.

But after playing it, I think I was wrong.

Where DayZ is harder to approach and "clunkier" to the average gamer because of it's ARMA MilSim roots..

Miscreated is smooth and easy, the game is like DayZ for the casual FPSer.

I see a great deal of promise in this game, if you watch any videos you'll know what you're getting into, honestly it's probably better with friends or people who can watch your back because there's a lot of boredom that keeps you tense, rummaging through houses for loot, unsure if people are in the same town as you, maybe they'll see you through a window and ambush you, maybe you'll only catch a glimpse of them as you're running out of town, it's very intense if you're one who prefers to hide.

Pros:
Awesome weather effects, a storm started just as a bandit found me and I managed to lose him in the rain and hide in a bush. I love it.
Smooth Gameplay
DayZ like UI
Social Experiment gaming, will you KOS people? Will you feed them? Will they KO you when your back is turned? Anything can happen.. Except AFAIK you can't handcuff people and forcefeed them rotten fruit and bleach.. DayZ has that on them.

Cons:
Far from feature complete
Loot spread still feels sparse
Not enough Mutants, I spawned my first time next to one, and that's the last one I saw. When I respawned, I have yet to see another. I don't understand how ARK can have thousands of Dinos but Miscreated can't have 100 mutants.
Atleast it's better than DayZ's zombies who have way, way too many net problems.
This game makes me wish DayZ was more fun for me because it's more complete imo, but this game is much more fun at the moment.

The hype is real, I'd never gotten a chance until a few days ago to pick this up.. for a game in such an alpha state it is very polished in June 2016, just past it's 2 year anniversary on Early Access.

There are parts I still don't understand about it, but it lends itself well to exploration with the constant threat of them being out there, waiting for you.

Yes, Them. The Natives are restless and honestly? I thought my first encounter with them would go better but I stumbled across two in a place I didn't expect them but they hit so hard and equipped with just the axe I didn't feel like a great fighter, I was knocked out quickly and they dragged me to a pit I had to escape from...

When I got out.. I spied my house. I built next to a pit. Uh oh.. I expect Night 3 to be eventful.

Instantly more terrifying, even the normal zombies seem to get faster when they notice you. Decked in legendary weapons and I turned back almost immediately back into the safe zone to wait till my friends/family can play later.

9/10 Would be too scared to progress alone again.

The narrative is alright, the gameplay is fantastic though and with some friends or family this game is amazing, definitely try out hard mode too if you're a fan of Day Z or otherwise.

I wasn't sure how well this would run on my computer but it has rock solid fps and looks great even with everything at low, It's a major plus that it's Dualshock 4 compatible natively, it even vibrates which makes me really happy, that's one of the reasons I prefer my PS4 for games because of the feedback but it working in this game is awesome.

Mui Potential

I have been following this game since it's Early access launch and I could finally get it today, it is a bit different than I expected but it's definitely a bit of brilliance in it's own right, I'm happy to own it, I hope I can play multiplayer with some people :)

This is a great game, I fell in love with it on the PS4, but it's really something you need to spend some time in and maybe a trip to the wiki or the forum to really see it's potential. If you're cool with shooting a lot of basic enemies and occasionally some badass ones, you'll be fine here. Honestly, when you're traversing half the area in a spin attack and slicing through infected like a space ninja blender, you'll appreciate this game.
