Rust is extreme pvp. Nothing you build will last. Rust excels in group play.

Ark is much the opposite, designed much more favorably around pve and single player play.

And then there's Atlas, which is something in between Ark and Rust.

Ark is better in every way. There is so much more that you can do in Ark. No comparison to rust.

People who call rust bad doesent even have 1k on it. Rust is a much better game if you don't have the same amount of time to put in that you need at ark. Rust doesent have crafting skill and such ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ so there's no better armor or guns of the same type. Rust is basically skill based and you need to use your game sense to win.

On ark you have mutations on dinos, different levels, crafting skill on guns and armor. You have to put in alot of hours into the game and you get stuck with that game. Theres no hour room to go switch game atleast till you are alpha with 1k heavy turrets filled because you will get raided.

On rust on the other hand you can also get offline raided but you haven't put in hundreds of hours to get to that stage to get offlined.

Weekly wipes on rust servers is the way to go. Rust with a bigger wipe cycle would result in "Alpha tribe states" where server dies and a couple of groups who are left have 50+ boxes of topnotch gear.

Play on a server with offline raid protection.

Disagree. Also I don't understand the comparison because they are different games with some similar features like the building, some dissimilar like the breeding and boss arenas, and they offer different experiences from server to server. For example I'd wager the RP community is much larger in Ark than Rust but I have no data to support this. There are parts of Ark where you need people and coordination, but I wouldn't say Ark lends itself more to PVE/SP. It depends how you play the game.

Atlas is bad. Really bad. Which is why it has a smaller player base than 7D2D already.

Ark is much better exspecially the unofficial has way more options to choose from like fibercraft ezcraft 2x 5x 10x 100x 1000x etc. Also way more things to do like breed tame hatch set up base turrets deathwalls spam also the pvp for dinos is preetyy intense but chill and the gun mechanics are not too good but they are half decent if only they had less lag so i would ddefienetely prefer ark over rust because you can make way more friends and tribe up.
