In multi-player servers other people can kill you, steal your resources and attack your base IN GAME. They have puts weeks worth of hours into this game, and have NEVER played multi-player with others. I have two twin boys who are both 11 today, and started playing ARK when they where 9 in 2018. The technical support is just awful.ĪRK: Survival Evolved is a great dinosaur-survival game. If you do not feel sorry for your nerves and time - for several hours to wait for the server to recall, then come in, play, the game is very good. If the developers are not able to ensure the smooth operation of the servers due to limited financial resources, is it really so difficult to think of introducing a limit on the number of buildings and the number of animals, the mass character of which leads to crashes (failures)? Isn't this, dear developers, you teach your children? Then why are you behaving like irresponsible children. But after all, everyone understands that one must be responsible for one's mistakes and correct them, but they do not understand. On the request to restore the lost technical support answer - no. And all this is lost due to a server failure (error, crash). up to 2 hours or more, 8-10 times a day, leads to the loss of tamed / grown dinosaurs and legendary weapons / armor, the creation / cultivation of which requires 6-8 hours of resource gathering and several days of cultivation. Permanent shutdown of the server (for example, Genesis 2) for 30 min. The game is very beautiful and interesting. Think if your child has the ability to deal with that. In my years of playing I have encountered in-game or through private msgs and/or xb parties, verbal harrassment, course language, racial slurs, homophobic slurs, threats of violence, intimidation, caging, taxing, the list goes on. Some adults find it hard to deal with that so could only imagine a child. Go to sleep, wake up and it could all be gone.

The aim of the game is to destroy everyone else and be the strongest which takes alot of time and commitment. Being online with no age restrictions other people can talk to your children in game or get gamer tag to msg or invite to a party so there is always that risk of stranger interactions.Īs for PvP I don't let my children play and highly recommend parents do the same. That part of the game is fine for children 7+ to have fun.Īs for pve I wouldn't let my children play unsupervised. Ark PvP player since release.ģ of my children have played or are playing ark single player.
