Has game performance improved?
I can't run this game with more than 15 FPS. I have tried running on lowest settings and I have tried to use some of the suggested tweaks such as removing fog and clouds. Still nothing seems to be working for me. I didn't run into this issue at all with ASE so just wondering has anyone seen any improvements or found things to make the game run better? or maybe has the developers actually optimized the game at all?

PC Specs below:
AMD Ryzen 7 5700G
AMD Radeon RX 6600
64GB RAM

No, it did not improved a single bit, and dont listen to whoever says "buy Nvidia" ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, has nothing to do with it.

Z790 AORUS ELITE AX
i7-13700K
32.0 GB RAM
MSI Nvidia 4080 Graphics Card
2 TB M.2 Drive

No issues what so ever, running at absolute max everything at 144hz and 1440p.

No stuttering, no lag, no tearing. Plays perfectly and works like a charm.

Anyone complaining simply does not comprehend computer hardware specifications properly and absolutely has no clue how to tune their in-game options to cater to their limitations.

Lastly, your GPU was only $300.00 at release. No insult implied or intended, however you're going to see very little difference between your PC and a PS5. That graphics card is simply not able to handle most modern video games. The Radeon RX 6600 is basically on par with the original Nvidia RTX 2060, which even when it released was barely a mid-range card.

You may want to consider upgrading your PC soon if you wish to purchase and play new games through Steam, Epic Games, Battle.net, Etc...

64 gb ram for a budget build makes absolutely zero sense

Complete BS comment.

Game still has problems, but it's not nearly as bad as launch. The clown awards are well earned.

Except the original Ark AMD owners had the EXACT same issue. So yes it has everything to do with it. Your ignorance is showing but now I have educated you.

Unfortunately asking that sort of question in Steam forums will only bring out haters and trolls. Fact of the matter is that the original Ark had the same issues with AMD. Would seem that the devs use Nvidia and so their work allows the game to run better on Nvidia then AMD. If you give them time they will of course improve the game overall but everything takes time. Like with ASE they are learning things as they go. Unreal 5 is brand new so they have much to learn. ASE turned out well and so will ASA just needs time.

I actually double-taked that last line when I read it

I run full 4K ultra settings and sill get 90 - 120 fps and in the heat. Where my machine is it's on average 90+ degree air temp in the room. I9 14900KS, 4080, 128G ram, samsung m.2 2tb drive, 1,100 watt power supply. From the time the game launched to now, there has been a lot of fixes and does seem to run much smoother.
