With ARK: Survival Ascended finally being released into the wild, you may soon start fiddling with the difficulty settings to find out what’s right for the experience you want to have. Keep reading to see what sets them apart.
ARK: Survival Ascended – All Difficulty Levels Explained
With any open-world survival game such as ARK, there are going to be various levels where players can venture throughout the game. This will vary from player to player, and it’ll shake up how you play and how careful you’ll have to be in the wild.
ARK bolsters numerous levels of difficulty for players, and rather than the standard Easy, Medium, Hard, etc. Instead, ARK uses a point scale from 0.5 all the way up to 5.0, and it’ll be expressed by difficulty values.
This may seem confusing at the onset of your ARK adventure, but players will quickly realize that the in-game slider is where you’ll be able to change the difficulty.
The difficulty itself is primarily going to affect the levels of the dinosaurs that will spawn in your world.
It’s confusing at first glance, but overall it shouldn’t take too long to get a grasp of it. The difficulty slider most affects enemy strength and loot drops.
