2023 Best Singleplayer Settings for Ark: Survival Evolved

Thanks for the info! Suggest working on scripting videos like this just to streamline and convey said information a bit easier, but great video, great info, and thank you!

horrible awful intro

I changed my setting to much without realizing. Started the game punched a tree and immediately died 😂😂😂

I'm currently playing on Lost Island with some friends on a private server via gportal. I've been noticing that the Prime Meat drop rates are really low on this map/server compared to when I'm playing on a solo game on another Map. I haven't played a single player on Lost Island yet to compare but I did notice this low drop right along with Seeds and Mejoberry/Narcoberry drops. Is there a setting I need to check and adjust that's causing this? Harvesting rates perhaps? The Prime Meat drops mostly are problematic. I can kill a bunch of Argys, Brontos, Carnos, Rexes and most times get nothing but regular meat or 'maybe" a couple prime meat. Imo making kibble shouldn't be easier a tactic to tame dinos then simply getting prime meat from a nearby prime meat dino, especially when I don't have this issue in a solo game on other maps I've tried. Any advice is helpful, especially if its simply a setting adjustment. Thanks in advance! (Edit Note: In my single player games I've used many of Phlinger's settings and don't have this problem on those play throughs. I'm not sure what may be causing it that I or another admin can fix.)

You should make an updated one for ark survival ascended.

Did they fix the Single Player resources not respawning bug, where harvested nodes don’t come back if you exit the game while they havent respawned?

Started playing with these settings and I've found myself to be over encumbered pretty quickly when collecting simple resources, Is this normal? Should I knock down the yield amount a touch?

The biggest thing i wish i could change is that time carries on like on official when you log off

Great video

I'm not really interested in peoples recommended settings I want to know how to set it up like official servers and 1 ain't it can't figure it out

Can you show official settings

Is it normall when applying these settings and starting a solo game, then close the game and restart all my settings are reset? Do i need to put it each time a want to play??

Will the dino max spawn level be 150?

phlinger pls respond i get 0% imprint

Something I like to change is the baby food multiplier, having fast babies is more quality of life for solo, having to play nearly 4 days of PLAYTIME like 3 hours a day is crazy, NOT changing the food drain I dont think people think about, but it makes something like wyvern babies super easy to get, or anything else like that, normally you have to go through the process of sleeping a wyvern, nabbing milk then raising a kid, without changing the drain, you can just nab an egg and run like hell and the kids fine now. completely skipping a key point in getting a dragon, able to raise a dragon at pteradon level rather than like 60+ or whenever the sleep darts are unlocked, So making the drain high enough to where they still need to eat, and eat a good bit, but not where you dont gotta feed babies

can somone leave all the setting changes in the comment section?

I am about to download this game and intend on only playing solo /pve ... is this the type of game i can stay on 1 map and build a huge base and just do the grind of farming /harvesting and surviving? Or is there certain quests and missions i must complete to do certain things? And whats the best map for a guy who just likes to casual play / grind / mess around on a vast open world solo?

1.75x playback speed sounds like Ben Shapiro

Can you tell me how to stop running in ark on ps4

My dino levels are so low anyone know why and I have both of the settings on that should make them be high level but they are still really bad the best I found is a 120 and I been playing it for 3 week

What is the max in the top part??? I have by taming a 3.0, can i put 6 or even 10???

Sorry but 0.25 is too slow xp gain for me what if i bump it to like 0.50 is that good?

Using these settings on xbox so i have no mods

I can’t seem to know my creatures grow up too fast before the imprint

you talk a lot and it makes me mad

Do you (or anyone reading this) have map recomendations? I only played the island map

Anyone else's fuel consumption rate just randomly changing? I could swear it started at 1 but changed to 1.6, then to 1.88, and 2.11

I play single player because of years of fail multiplayer experiences, since Ultima Online! There's good things, but the toxicity is overwhelming...
So I like fun. I like not doing everything professionally, calculated, mathematically exact.
I also called my nephew to play alongside me. He can use split screen or he plays on his PS4. For it it's good to have friendly fire OFF among other settings.

I’m running these settings, most fun I’ve had on ark in years

Thank you very much

thank you so much for sharing your settings, as well as your work in figuring out the math for the baby imprint settings!

idk why but everytime im trying to start singleplayer and i log out it wont let me load in again and it just crashes

I have a problem with hatching eggs with this settings it doesn't incubate the health also doesn't go down

Question: If I have a world that has 0.5 difficulty Dino’s and I change the slider to 1.0, do all the Dino’s including tamed ones get scaled?

Honestly the only setting I would recommend people to change is the weight setting because caring that stuff back and forth can be mind numbing

Thank you, this is very helpful

Can't thank you enough Phlinger. I watched your SP setting video of a few yrs back and I'm watching this in 2023. Always, always, always good content. 🔥

Definately trying these settings cheers I alaws have single player settings checked and wondered why nothing was working thanks again

New soloing the ark series possibly?! :0

very helpful vid, thanks for sharing this

Eternally grateful for these videos

Anyone know how to get the Hawaiian shirts? I see it's in the cooking pot, I put the meat in the cooking pot but once I do that, I can't get it

I am wondering if I should turn down my XP for Ark Ascended.

I feel like I go from bow to crossbow in a blink of the eye.

Does anyone knows how to put mods on PS4? I've been playing Ark since 2016 and I always wanted to use structure +.

I've used these settings but now my dinos don't gain levels? Help?

very helpful thanks

Why would anyone invest their time/money in a game who's producers are actively hostile to it's player base? Ya'll probly pay 2k a month in OF subs...

I also found with pve enabled my wyvern wouldn't pick up wild thylas but with pvp enabled it would!

i used to switch to sp-settings for breeding. thx for the settings, now i can stay on mp

Copied all settings they work very well 👍
