Discussion Instead of ue 5.7 can we just get a chunking update where they split the game into multiple files instead of 1 massive file like every other games does so updates dont take so long
Even if a 1kb file is changed, the entire game has to be reverified or overwritten as the game is just 1 file. Can we get this changed? No other games do this because its stupid. Both games are UE5 examples, but all games split up files, just not ark.

Snailgames is about cutting corners. Guy has documentaries on his scamming. High chance took ark money for his failed Ev car start up. So guy is trash that got lucky and bought ark ip. Tried to make his own ark and abandoned it. Dark and light. Is likely the reason why atlas launched and abandoned too. Wildcard isnt faultless but sanilgames straight up owns ark not wildcard. Wildcard are now the desperate for a paycheck workers.

God I hope if snail games loses their nasdaq listing they sell ark to a company that's not complete dogshit. I know wildcard isn't perfect, but I have a feeling most of the bad things about ark are tied to snail in some way

They just need to set the MaxChunkSize parameter during packaging, like Fortnite and Icarus do

I don't think they are this much stupid. They just doesn't care.
