Ark: Survival Evolved sells 1 million on PS4

>Ark: Survival Evolved sells 1 million on PS4
>Sony port of Studio Wildcard's debut was best-selling game on PSN for December and January
> Ark: Survival Evolved was the top-selling game on the PlayStation Store in both December and January, topping anticipated PS4 new releases like The Last Guardian, Gravity Rush 2, Steep, and Resident Evil 7.

>With Ark hitting 1 million on PS4, the game has now sold 7 million copies across all platforms. Ark is at 4.5 million copies sold on PC, and the game hit 1.5 million on Xbox One as of August 2016 (after debuting in December 2015). All of this comes despite Ark’s unfinished state. Studio Wildcard does plan to finally “release” Ark later this year, but — for now — it is still in an early-access form.


WTF how can that many people buy an unfinished game? Everybody literally paying for beta testing,

Does this mean "early access" the most questionable feature of Steam, is going to be copied by consoles too?

It doesn't have any gamebreaking glitches. It feels rough but it's still fun. The "roughness" kinda gives it character

keep crying while faggits like you buy day 1 dlc or season passes having no idea what the content is gaming will continue these trends if anything this early access has had the most updates and consistent content compared to anyother

>keep crying while faggits like you buy day 1 dlc

Jokes on you I don't even buy any current gen games, I don't even play consoles I only play old PC games I couldn't play as a child because I was a poorfag. I'll maybe going to buy a PS3 or a PS2 because it has some cult games I wanna play like Folklore and the games aren't that expensive.

The game is fun with friends because of that it creates a chain reaction of people convincing others to play with them. The game as so little content, but it's okay there's billions of dinos in the game and $20 DLC that is the same game but reskinned with a couple new dinos.

The game will never be finished. They still have no idea what the fuck they're doing with UE4 and hire people who also have no idea

People also couldn't wait to buy DLC for a game that is still struggling with performance issues.

I don't know. To each their own I guess

Was waiting for it to go on sale myself. Guess It'll be a long wait if it's selling like hotcakes.

B-but I thought only PCfats liked survival shitty games! We Sonybros only like games like BB and Horizon Zero Dawn!

Has there ever been another example of an early access title releasing a paid expansion while still in early access?

>Has there ever been another example of an early access title releasing a paid expansion while still in early access?

No, but there has been funded Kickstarter games that end up in Early Access.

I thought Sony didn't allow early access games on the PS4? Tripwire had this issue with KF2 and Sony wouldn't let them release it until it was actually out.

>pcucks:HAHAH FUCK YOU SONYGGERS. YOU CANT HAVE THIS GAME YOU DONT LIKE THIS
>pcucks now: WTF!? Why are you guys buying beta tests!? OMGGGG

They had to keep up with xbox

Thats what I find ironic though console does have very few of these types of games and they are mostly PC.

The mainstream gaming audience has shit taste regardless of platform thats why the yearly CoD installments and Madden/FIFA top console sales charts.

>we sonybros have th best games and exclusives
*buys early access crap*
what did sonygaf mean by this?

They still don't technically allow early access, Sony's fine with you releasing an early access game as a final product and updating it through patches, or the developer could just drop it and leave everyone with an unfinished broken game and get away with it since it's sold as-is. These survival crafting games like 7 Days to Die & Arc have been good on the updates though.

>The sony kids are more than happy to buy into early access too

I don't think anyone ever gave a shit about this game going multiplat.

Its a garbage game and shouldn't be bought on any platform.

I think the point OP was trying to make is that console fanboys frequently mock PC players for buying early access games but this just shows console players are more than willing to all the same given the option.

Yeah but the pc version sols like 4x more than the console versions. You guys are 4x as gay.

>in alpha since 2015
>already pushing out DLC

it's never getting out of early access is it

>PKEKS blame consoles for holding games back
>but buy a cancerous games 4 times more than the console versions

Hmmm

>ark on consoles
>ps4
I thought sony put there foot down on this early access shit

Ark is pretty fun when you play single player or a small server but. PVP is cancer and most populated servers have no real estate for you to set up in.
