Ark: Survival Evolved: Low fps becaue of UE4 or due to no optimizations?

Not sure where you are getting your facts from, but this isn’t true. is a quick run I did in standalone mode, no editor open, UE4 is using at least 5 of my logical cores (clear rises when starting and executing, clear falls when executing had stopped), and this is a bare minimum map:

Now this is in no means any kind of professional test or anything, just a quick run, view and exit to see. But as far as I can tell, its definately threading decently.

Not to mention that ARK is definitely GPU bound. It seems like the textures and materials are unoptimized, mainly. If you do “stat unit” in the game, CPU is taking barely any frame time. Most likely the reason sees what he does with the game is that the GPU is taking so long to draw that the CPU is idling.

I’m as curious as anyone to figure out why ARK’s performance profile is so strange, but I’m going to say it’s definitely not anything to do with UE4 not utilizing the CPU well.
