There are so many things you can do in ARK. You can strat your journey from scratch, having nothing at all, and eventually progress by having your first dino and a set of gear. However, there’s also another fun way you can fully explore the vast world in the game: becoming an admin.
There are some great benefits obtainable from this, including the ability to use the special admin ARK commands. These commands may function differently from what the general players have. The admin commands can basically control the server, including kicking a misbehaved player, flying through everything, and configuring any other aspects of the game.
These admin features will further expand your ARK journey by making it more fun and enjoyable, especially if you have some friends to play with. As the admins get gifts, they can also share them with their friends, if they want to. Spawning even rare items is definitely possible once you become an admin, and god mode will basically make everything so much easier.
Once you get your hands on the ARK admin commands, you won’t want to let go. Now, if you want to experience the more complete ARK console commands through becoming an admin, here’s what you need to do:
