Running Ark Ascended on my Low-End PC

yo what's up guys Steiner here perhaps you're like me and loving the new look Arc yes the water oh my god oh look at it but like me you own a low-end PC and you're asking yourself the question can I still play Ark survival ascended well I'm here to tell you the easy answer is yes but it does come with a catch a big graphical catch let's dive a little deeper so this is The Game's minimum requirements meaning any type of PC rig with specs less than this means the game isn't playable well my PC doesn't meet these specs and I'm here to show you that it is still playable here are my current PC specs my graphics card letting me down the most as I only have an NVIDIA GTX 1060 Arc requiring a 1080 to play also requires an SSD drive and I'm running it on my standard hard drive okay so first I'll show you what happens when I try start the game with the default graphic settings as you can see here the game has has defaulted everything sort of to to medium settings motion blur light Bloom everything's on um textures are on high even this General Shadows High illumination quality epic like pretty weird that it's yeah automatically giv me um those settings but it is what it is okay let's fire it up and uh see what happens all right here we go as you can see there's moments where the game look nice but yeah it seems like we're running at about what five frames a second so sadly this is definitely not playable I mean if I don't move it looks pretty um as soon as I start moving it doesn't work um I'll leave him Zoom back here yeah it's it's gross I can't I can't play the game like this um I mean on a positive the PC hasn't crashed so I'll give it that um look I'll even jump into the water here for you yep that's what we get so okay but if we jump back into the settings here um what we're going to do is we're going to drop this down to low but for my PC it still isn't low enough so we're going to make everything low um here we've got low low bage low um we're going to turn motion blow motion blows off light Bloom off light shafts are off everything off off off off off and finally we're going to change the max frame rate to 30 we'll save save that and we'll see what happens so this is the result everything moving much smoother now as we can see yeah we're looking like a more of a normal game if I run into the water you don't get that you know nice water effect um so yeah but still a much playable game as I run out through here look it kind of looks like Ark survival evolved um but yeah very much playable so now I'll just let some gameplay play out that way you get to see various things and help you make the decision um whether you think it's worth getting for yourself if you want to see more stay tuned to my channel as I will be live streaming the game very soon probably in these graphic settings um and if you've got any more questions or if you want me to play with other settings um yeah feel free to jump in and ask me to do that so just quickly before I go if you can just hit the like button for us help get this video seen by others that may be wondering the same thing about their graphic settings and and their lowend PC it will really help um and also subscribe for more art content as I will be continuing to do so hopefully catch you again soon and don't forget eat your veggies [Music] oh sh [Music] sh all right thanks for watching guys if you haven't seen it perhaps I can interest you in my reaction video I was so pumped so if anything it's a bit of a laugh cuz I was super hyped anyways peace out
