I forgot the GREEEEENHOUSE! Sorry Guys :( Then Again I have ptsd from the destruction noise of it xD
I'll be looking for part 2!
U also forgot vacs… probably b the coolest thing to see break.. also can u do a shout out for my brother Arthur Strout. He and 17 others were killed in a mass shooting the other night in USA Lewiston maine. The shooter shot up 2 places, 1 was full of children and then escaped for 2 days and then killed himself… he left behind 5 kids 1 of them grew up playing ark and I’m sure would appreciate this request
Thrilled they reduced the horrible glare from metal structures, among so many other things. WC really listened to the community and truly fixed the structures and building mechanics in ASA, which is something I wholeheartedly appreciate.
Still watching and a little busy with work. Care to summarize for me please? What’s changed in terms of structure building/mechanics?
@@AccountHolder007 So they don't show it in this video but I've seen others go through a more in-depth testing with the new structure features and there's a good bit of incredible stuff. Firstly, various things have more snap points like campfires on foundations or chests being able to snap perfectly against walls. There are also building options to align the structure you want to place with the object you want to place it next to, or you can use free-form to just place wherever you like. As for structures, there are less to pick from but not because they removed any (in fact, they added new ones!), but because they combined them together! For example, you only need to craft walls now since you can just cycle through options to convert that wall into various structures like window frames or doorways. Pillars can be placed horizontally, fences can be placed upsidedown or diagonally, sloped walls are now a singular structure that can be cycled through for more options (and they can be placed upsidedown as well). Oh and the new structures are things like quarter walls/ceilings, and also they added a frickin secret wall door that you place as a wall but it flips around! There's just so much stuff and tons of potential with it all. Oh and teleporters come in three sizes now, including one that fits on a single foundation, haha! And there are no longer any electrical cables, the generators now have a pulse range like the tek gens. There's just lots of stuff you'll have to see for yourself as I can't list it all lol.
@@AccountHolder007 walls are now squares (theyre taller) and you can toggle between windows and doorframes when using walls, textures are more detailed and look cleaner
@@victorfox187 Yes! I forgot to mention that too, the walls are taller which means no more crouching when entering a base with low ceilings lol.
And the God awful sound gates and doors and foot steps on metal made are finally gone
Can hear the genuine excitement about these changes , let's hope they actually iron out alot of the bugs early on
yes with excitement there are a lot of bad things like the fact i cant join servers Because when I do I get dc from a crash and have to sim to get in again XD. also thhe character creation is stupid.
@@ShaneTheShadowwouldn’t say stupid, its a new change that players gotta get use to
@@ShaneTheShadowhow’s the character creation stupid? You don’t like that they added more customization???? Always someone who find something positive and make it negative. Just be happy with the game
The performance is sooo bad I’d prioritise it over bugs at this current point.
@@ShaneTheShadowI agree the character creator is dumb, they should have gotten rid of the derp and standardised heights on PvP servers.
I hope they find a way to change the interior in the cold areas. Would love to have it cold and frosty on the outside but warm and cozy on the inside.
It should go away when you put an enclosed roof over it.
@@IKnowHowItEnds I thought the same thing but my build is completely enclosed and there is snow on every surface still
@@zatharous3815 I said it "should" not that it "will" go away.
I like the overgrown idea in the swamp. Even if you could like farm certain material from swamp and throw a some kind of camp net over your base to blend in would be cool to
100% I think it would me madness being able to hide in trees with ur base
ooooo gillie net would be cool for camouflage
Please suggest this to the ark forums please, this idea is genius.
I really like the snow details. Just wish the inside floors didn't get covered, when there's a roof. Kinda diminishes that cozy feel of a cabin in winter wonderland.
I’m keeping trying to figure out when you building something in the snow area the structures should been covered with snow and it look pretty good but it’s those do that’s on ps5 is it only pc because of graphics are better or idk 🤷🏼♂️. What is it only for Xbox or pc or is that a setting for it or something??? It’s driving me crazy not knowing where the problem lies
Btw Shane, giant hatchframes were added with SE, so that’s when we’ll be getting them
Hatches are already there, you can change the type there, so we take the overlap and choose a hatch
I like how you don't get blinded by reflections in metal anymore 😂
Same!
You're welcome
can metal structures be painted white yet? 😃
I love building in this game and i realy like the fact that the gen works without cable now! You answered a lot of my questions, thx for the video😊 btw sry my english is not very well, greetings from germany😅
It’s weird that the Torch gives off a ring of light ahead of you. Like a flashlight.
yup
This may all change in any of the next updates, because this is still an early version
The electrial generator is a stop back in some ways. I hope it's quieter. I used to run cables for miles so the gen was out of earshot and them service the whole base. I'm going to need a dozen of these in some of my bases. maybe more. And then fuel each one.
Would love to see how it works on rough terrain and clipping.
ya i hope they do some changes here, perhaps we could still have cables but make it so the outlet itself has the radius around it? that wawy we can still pipe power around if we want, and if u dont attach any cables then it just defaults to the larger radius here
I think it’s better from a PVP perspective. Can no longer cheese peoples bases by hitting the cables. I think this will be more noob friendly by having one less weak point to be exploited by us more experienced players.
@@nickreffner4574 i do think it simplfies things and certainly makes it more pvp friendly, i kinda just wish there was a mix of both systems like how i suggested in my above comment, but i guess if devs dont do anything like that can always mod it in.
Love this. Slightly sad the snow doesn't melt when there is a fire inside...but I can't complain

i kinda liked cables so i can hide my generator far away so i didnt have to hear it :( really cool stuff though. I also hope they get rid of the frost inside of well insulated buildings.
Oh my god I'm getting so excited just seeing the textures and ahapes on the buildings, even thatch looks so good. Cant wait til its out on console 😊
The game is gorgeous! I find myself stopping all the time just to soak in all of it 😂
Great video👍 the structures look amazing omgg now i honestly want to see how theyll react to different environments like the swamp or at the volcanoes
Imagine the situation in the future, a volcano erupted and due to the lava flow, the dude's base burned down lol
Crazy How good everything looks now….makes me wanna come back !
Do you have to change any settings or INI for this to be active in game? cause I don't seem to have the snow build up on top of my structures
I have a question if you make the base quickly in the snow area does the frost still form? I love the way it works but I am not a fan of frost inside my house.
excellent work here.. thanks
Thank you too!
FINALLY, wiring and cabling will no longer get in the way of construction and decoration! It's going to be SO EASY to build a decent boat or mobile base now. That's an incredible change. My only complaint is that the snow doesn't melt inside of structures when a fire or heat source is nearby.
I think they will fix it. This is an early version of the game, there are still many improvements waiting for it
amazing video. 7:40
how do you do this camera movement how to got it from where?
Reminds me of icarus a bit with the new building system and the snow accumulating.
100% I thought the same thing!
Now THIS feels like survival evolved(in the literal sense). That generator being cable-less is a HUGE game changer, cuz now you can't be raided as easily as before(well, if you have turrets that is).
I like how the different armors make sound effects aswell
What graphics card have you got to run this game, i currently have a rx 6700 xt and it cant run it, crashes often and low fps
I wish the sound of walking be different from ground to every type of foundation, like red dead redemption 2 when walking to wood u can hear thats a wood and when walking on stone ground u hear that , i wish it was there in ASA so it won’t get boring after long time
that would be amazing because then u know where people are xD

good job bro ty, nice to just see some in game info instead of people complaining for a change. the metal structures is a huge jump forward. i usually just build in metal anyway and seeing it given such a big visual push i think i'll stick to doing that. I never really liked tek structures besides as a flex that your in game wealthy(im pve so its extra strength really doesn't matter to me).
The ranged generator is a very good choice. i'll miss being able to vault drop though, it was something i did occasionally just for aesthetics or function, not a big loss ill get over it. cant wait for console release!
yeah the metal in this looks like metal structures people use in blender to make sick thumbnails
I’m playing in my ps5 and I was testing out The snow affect but it doesn’t seem to be working on ps5 is it something I do or is the the settings
ooh i cant wait to see ark 2 with all this cool stuff they learn how to do with this game
Hey, great vid aweseome work. I am on console and i cannot get snow to stick to my base for nothing. I am built in a very snowy part always flurries. Waitrd days and still no snow. Any idea why or what i can do to make it appear ive tried everything i wanna say
Thanks ... my pc cant run it for now so i was curious.... game's gorgeous.... whats your build? i want to make it look as close to that as possible : P
9:40 dam bro predicted that it would look like a open can😂😂
what about light bleed from multiple story buildings? Light always bled from the second story to the first floor in evolved.
Snowy Xmas village in the north zone, here I come :D I can't wait to do some cozy building in Ark :D
An indoor firepit would be awsome id like them to make a roof cap building part so you dont have to have that flat top roof that you built on all your buildings and id like different styles of roofs for all the materials the roofs just look odd to me in ark they always have no more cables is awsome
yeah more variety would be amazing!
There are a lot of good changes to Ascended. The Evolved Official players are going to hate not being able to exploit the game to a ridiculous degree anymore and it needed to happen.
its so funny how people literally tried to cheat straight away
Damm the metal structures look so much better, gonna start building with them once I get the industrial furnace
Can you show crops and plumb
ing, has it changed? Also underwater building. Ty
I’m on Xbox and I don’t see the snow effects on my buildings. Any fix?
Great vid thanks. Question on the generator, does it have the same range to power machinery vertically?
it powers everythig that uses a electrical gen in that range
@@ShaneTheShadow and the range is spherical so the same distance vertically as it is laterally
The torch light look more like a flashlight then a fire . Its not around the torch , just in front of it ahah
I like that eliminate the need for load of engram points
Holy shit so cool
If you want a nice Building the mix the Pieces. Use Pillars to give 3D Effect to your Building.
Best part of lighting is that you can close up your base and your campfire doesn't shine through the corners for all to see
Oh wow. Ok it’s time for a snow base, something I’ve never done in Ark
Beautiful
Did u use ur RTX 3080 for this video?
Can you adjust your gamma like before and negate all the night time darkness?
If I'm not mistaken, you can
How does the greenhouse walls looks like?
The torch acting like a flashlight is a bit weird. Why is the light coming from just the front of it? Its a ball of fire lol
I wqould liketo know what your pc spec is and what the metrics are in task manager when doing this vid
I'm just glad that i can look at the sky without burning my retinas out
hahahaah
Tek has lights in the structures. I like to think its self heating XD
Not being able to vault drop structures is kinda nice, honestly. Will keep server lag to a minimum and make even mega bases easier to raid. The point is to see how long you can survive, not how well you can make others lag. A welcomed change.
The way the torch casts light forward like a weaker version of a flashlight is comical
yup xD
Is there a turret limit ?
The no cable generators And anywhere turret positing has made it really fair for everyone unless someone eventually starts using mods
They actually did a great job with structure improvement. Although I’m worried how this appears on console :(
did they planned to improve the K.I ?
Did they remove double doors?
is there a way to get rid of the snow covering everything inside the house its kinda driving me crazy
like i just spent 4 hour trying to build a nice house that would usually take an hour but crash after crash you know the whole riga monrow just for it to look like i have holes in the ceiling letting in a blizzard into my house
can’t wait to play it too bad console is not out yet I hope is soon
Anyone having issues with not seeing any snow at all? I don't see snow on my base in the mountains at all
I think my only complaint is that the jankyness of ASE's system allowed for some creative building stuff. I hope thew new system isnt limiting in that regard. Also, catwalks are missing which were nice for mounting artifacts, small boxes, and other decor on.
they added quarter ceilings to replace them i think
why wish for catwalks when we now have quarter ceilings, roof snap points, noclip building default, new rails, and new snap assists in 3 flavors that make anything you want building-wise so much easier, and so much more. this is everything a builder ever wanted. but ya quarter ceilings are your friend, and you can snap railings to them
Wow looks so kooool
I might buy it once its fixed and all maps are out again 😅
I don’t know how this remaster will be financially viable, nearly everyone has a standard tier pc, not many people can afford a £10,000 pc to run the game, and pc chips are really hard to come by these days including a ps5, my prediction is they’ll run out of money and go bankrupt unless they optimise it for lower spec, also it’s strange because we were told unreal engine 5 would be less resource intensive for operating systems because the scene renders locally instead of having to load the whole map. Something doesn’t add up.
yeah it sucks with the performance but if people turn it down u can play but it doesnt look as good
wish i had this type of pc haha
i just work the graphics around to look okay and run okay XD its still struggles
its all the bloody space for@@ShaneTheShadow 250GB with maybe 4 DLCs and a few mods...its ridiculous.
I wonder how greenhouse will look in the snow if it’s in the game yet
yeah I forgot about that tbh :(
I have been looking for a comment about greenhouse walls etc b4 I put one
Was worried they had removed them lol
@@ShaneTheShadow thank you for sharing this and the new video with the greenhouse the way things are with the snow I can see a lot of people wanting to have some kind of base in the snow now I know people I play with want to build a Viking settlement in the snow even tho we still have to wait to play since we’re xbox
I miss the Greenhouse in both biomes 😅 but wanderful video, congrats!
what do u mean
@@ShaneTheShadow at normal weather and snow biome 😬
@@rafaelkawakubo1499 lol true xD probs frosts over too
@@ShaneTheShadow I'm curious about the light inside the structure 😁
Planning to upgrade my pc next year, looks like ark season is cominggg
hopefully they work on it more by then to make it easier to play
No Vault dropping BOO. But the way you can place turrets is massively insane
The torch kinda just looks like an orange flashlight beam though..
Need a look at all the new pieces, the new halfwalls, quarter pieces, new hatch ceiling, railings, and biggest thing is how you can snap stuff all over the place, upside down railings, sloped ceiling wall snappoints, and how you can make all new base designs with these smaller pieces, and most of the new building stuff is from Atlas(not rust).
yeaH but the way u can alter the structures is similar to rust. i keep finding new thhings like trap walls..
For sure though I will do another looking at them all and trying them out. I want to do testing with tps too
@@ShaneTheShadow biggest thing I just seen is dedis auto link(they have a range setting) to replicator for crating similar to the old inventory pull craft mods but now for base game, not sure if the dedicated storage work for other crafting station thou(xbox here so im rooting for pc players to find all the nitty gritty goodies before we get it), but the replicator does for sure.
@@brenon45 I'll do a video on all that awesomeness tomorrow maybe :) I did get told that :)
honestly after watching this ima go with metal foundations and wall , tek roof
Good shit shane 🫡
cheers
No vault drop?! Crazy
The torch light.. lights Forward like a flashlight instead of around the torch like fire
What about Sloped Quarter Ceilings?
will you be playing smalls again . i had a fun time when i met you on lost island and your one of the realist ark players
trying to but servers die constantly
yea same our sever was down for like 10 hours @@ShaneTheShadow
Are you still running the 3080?
yup, I change settings around to run it good, I have 2k graphics but make most to high and shadow/ textures epic so that the crispness is still there!
What are your pc specs? Ive heard of people not able to achieve 60+ frames even with a 4080
Please show how turrets shoot
can someone do this and try painting the different materials different colors? stone and metal used to not hold colors well and I'm wondering if that has changed
i can do that XD
@ShaneTheShadow could u also do a vid showing lights inside each structure and how much it radiates out at night? jw for pvp how hard it's gonna be to hide bases with paint and lighting
Is it me, or do they all feel like there's weight to them now?
The only thing with the lighting, like the torch flame, is it function like a flashlight with a defined cone/area in front of you lit up, not everything around you lit up. I'm going to assume that's a sacrifice due to technical limitations/reduce the load of the GPU?
What about Abode?
Torch is kinda weird ..... almost like a flash light emitting from light source.
truth it has the same light source just diff colour like it project forward
Where is Adobe?
scorched earth
i love the graphics so much that ive accepted playing the game on 25 fps because i dont want to sacrifice the looks for the frames
Kinda odd how torches act like battery powered torches lol
Are there recipes that make you faster?
Focal and swamp fever still have the increased speed effect
The building, the terrain, the weather, all looks so good that it’s a little weird that the Dino’s weren’t upgraded as much
maybne once servers and stuff are sorted they will work on dinos
@@ShaneTheShadow yeah, I’m stupidly optimistic 😂. I believe they’ll fix things and upgrade as time goes on, but from the raptor reveal, I expected the Dino’s to have the same tlc as the buildings did
I think metal is the biggest improvement
the metal hut looks like an asylum
What a shambles thought they would have learned from Ark1 lol
the graphics look great for items but im going to wait to see if lag is a problem after 100000 of pillars are placed everywhere lol
im sure it will considering atm its BAD and no one has anything
@@ShaneTheShadow if i do start playing asended on Xbox one i won't be building a massive base and waisting more time and effort. I spent near a year breeding albino wyverns and don't have them anymore.
I must say, I don't like the fact that they made the electricity go WiFi... cable management was part of the building and gameplay and I liked it too.
