#

oh wow, I wonder if thats intentional or a bug.

lethal moat
#

I think it’s intentional, are there still debug stuff on the domes anymore?

fast forge
#

ooooh see through domes would be coooool TI_HypsilWow

fast forge
#

you can!

fast forge
#

You can actually see flashes of thunder through them

#

and a little bit of terrain - it's like they are tinted

lethal moat
#

Any other changes we’ve seen?

hexed forge
lethal moat
#

I would like to see all the listed mutations

hexed forge
#

Most dinos have all the same mutations with a few being unique

#

Here is 10 of em

#

For dibble

fast forge
hexed forge
fast forge
#

Tier 2 I had only 3 mutations available, and they were different

hexed forge
#

I think 15 mutations iirc on first tier

#

Second tier is 3

#

And third tier is 3 too, but I heard some are very op on tier 3

#

Tier 4 TI_DiloSip does not exist

fast forge
#

looking into a dome

#

looks like a reflection in the screenshot, but it's definitely not

hexed forge
#

Elder growth stage TI_DiloSip

#

And then we will get elder mutations.. the ones you earn after you die

fast forge
#

Perimeter does not seem to be transparent...

hexed forge
#

And then we get nesting mutations- We are still very early in mutations woah

lethal moat
fast forge
#

probably

hexed forge
#

Nah, I dont think perimeter is meant to be transparent.

fast forge
#

even up close it looks like windows, but I can't say for sure

hexed forge
#

They use different materials for the "glass?"

Or atleast it looks like it.

lethal moat
#

I’d like Perimeter to be more reinforced, steel triangles filled with glass

hexed forge
#

^

fast forge
#

that's what it is

hexed forge
#

Looks like steel

#

Or, some sort of metal

lethal moat
#

For now

fast forge
#

looks like a glass game object without the transparency applied

#

And if you are growing plants in there, you want sunlight coming in because it's tons of free energy

hexed forge
#

Redwoods

fast forge
#

yes

hexed forge
#

yea

fast forge
#

indeed

#

ohh the added stuff to river delta

#

just rocks and such, and maybe fixed the big glitch in the water?

#

the area by the dam is much more rocky

hexed forge
fast forge
hexed forge
#

East of riverdelta in the jungle near the coast.

#

37,824.061, 327,733.66, 23,351.984

fast forge
#

fish spawning on the ocean side of the river delta dam

hexed forge
#

Yeah that happened before

fast forge
#

I even saw one of the big fish

hexed forge
#

Yeah that happened before

fast forge
#

I have seen them there before, but only like twice

#

and not the big fish

lethal moat
#

I wonder if AE knew about the salt rock’s importance or if it was just a convenient coincidence

fast forge
#

huh?

#

it's just like a salt lick - you know like for horses and cows? helps with indigestion

lethal moat
#

Was Gateway chosen because it has salt

fast forge
#

I suppose, but salt licks are probably cheap to manufacture

lethal moat
#

Fair

acoustic osprey

acoustic osprey
#

Getting there

hexed forge
#

Isaac wanna see somethin? A theory.

acoustic osprey
#

Send

#

Sorry I'm at a studio, bit delayed right now

hexed forge
#

.

#

Starts hereTI_DiloSip

lethal moat
#

I think it could happen, but we don’t have a ton pointing that direction at the moment

hexed forge
#

The only thing I currently have to make it possible is the fact that there are internal disputes in the company.

lethal moat
#

Robot quetz in perimeter maintenance closet when?

fast forge
lethal moat
#

Femce

fast forge
#

you can see that one human base

lethal moat
#

Trees broke

fast forge
#

ye

acoustic osprey
#

No new fences yeah?

fast forge
#

I was looking, didn't see any at NE or water access. Volcano cave hasn't seemed to change either

hexed forge
acoustic osprey
#

Coolio

lethal moat
#

Devblog tonorrow, hopefully we’ll get some good stuff

acoustic osprey
#

Mmm

#

I'm guessing likely minimal stuff

hexed forge
#

I hope

acoustic osprey
#

i'd say it's ok
but you're basically just running down Greek Mythos

If anything
whomever or whoever made AE might see "those" against *them *as being akin to the "Titans"
Seeing as we know
"Someone or someone was dealt a [crap] hand in life and was given power to try to fix what was [crap] about their life"

but,
I don't believe "internal" issues would be akin to titanomachy

#

if anything
you'd more so put it against gigantomachy

mint vault
fast forge
acoustic osprey
#

if anything, titans being dinosaurs would make more sense if it was more of an actual lost world scenario

#

not in terms of the movie/book
but in terms of the possibility of creatures, dinosaurs by basically fermented blood, surviving the past 65+ million years and now AE holds them all (mostly)

#

if anything though
Replicator might be some sort of Gaea-esque entity? At least, basically a more robotic chaos machine.
Chaos just in the fact that it does what it has to do. Sentience or not.
It seems imbalance? Here's a fix

that just goes off what little we know of her and how much we can speculate of her

#

where in this case
I can see the "Giants" being, basically, Gen1s to some extent

#

however
the relationship between Gen1s, Replicator and AE doesn't really fit all that well with the relationships of these mythological characters

lethal moat
#

I can see replicator as Gaea

hexed forge
acoustic osprey
#

either Gaea or Khaos honestly

#

Replicator fits well in both categories for different regards

lethal moat
#

Uranos doesn’t really fit as well as it would for a construction company maybe

acoustic osprey
lethal moat
#

Mhm

acoustic osprey
#

I would reckon AE would, at all costs of their ego, relate anything to Olympians and their minor gods

#

Plus related primordial gods that didn't really have a go at them in Titanomachy

#

Like Helios

#

But even then
Apollo takes his place

So use for Helios really

#

Unless you want to refer to some early pre-dating tech of AE

lethal moat
#

Prometheus

acoustic osprey
#

Especially the human side of such

lethal moat
#

Mhm

acoustic osprey
#

I do wonder the extent of AEs greco-roman references

I guess it all depends on poetry and ego

#

Whether mythological or simply through wordings and names

#

Like Wheos

lethal moat
pine owl
#

when the sanctuary first came out i thought the dome was the sanctuary 😭

lethal moat
#

I think a sanctuary in perimeter could work

pine owl
#

the dome being a sanctuary would be cool tho

#

anyways could someone give me a summary of the lore

fast forge
lethal moat
# pine owl anyways could someone give me a summary of the lore

We’ve got this, as well as a podcast and a lore server https://docs.google.com/document/d/1J3FnAzKdtmlIYzTfgSlevTgGLcn8h-Zaxlqn3WEicVw/edit

pine owl
#

the buildings and weirdly somber and sad music in legacy and just vibe of legacy got me in the lore

#

like no way these dinos are natural

lethal moat
#

Legacy isn’t canon, though some stuff moves over

lethal moat
fast forge
pine owl
#

not actual dinosaurs

lethal moat
pine owl
#

relocated to tartarus is wild

#

"say something private and we going to send you to hell"

fast forge
#

I have a theory that they are like AI-generated images. Someone asked an Ai to make a herrerasaurus, and this is what was 3D printed for them

lethal moat

#

hey i heard things about thousand life contract

#

thag sounds cool imma read more

lethal moat
#

Thousand life contract is a fun song and a fun thing to think about

pine owl
#

would life to see tartatus

pine owl
#

tartarus whatever, i like the smaller less importent strains

#

like that mosquito bugger

#

sucking the blood of some allo

lethal moat
#

The matriarch isn’t a strain

#

Same thing (unofficial but the creature is returning)

pine owl
#

whats the matriarch? I read and its basically legacy tartarus?

fast forge
#

the matriarch is rumple's favorite TI_Derp

lethal moat
fast forge
#

tbf it's very cool

pine owl
#

oh

#

hm, its a living creature?

lethal moat
pine owl
#

what the hell is apollo up to this is messed up

lethal moat
pine owl
#

wasnt there lore about there being some kind of god that you can sacrifice yourself to be stronger when you are reborn

pine owl
#

i was listening a dondi stream or something and i heard smth lile that

#

like

#

oh yeah

lethal moat
#

I can get the quotes on that too, brb

pine owl
#

the gen 1 in gameplay they able to sacrifice dinos and people

#

to the replicator

#

Can i see the island walker Skeleton?

#

if anyone has it

lethal moat
#

Keep in mind, the eyeless are the changed gen 1 we presume

pine owl
#

oh

pine owl
#

Ngl this is so cool! the way the assets "evolve" like the first herrera learning to climb and stuff

lethal moat
pine owl
#

isnt titan lake v3 whatever its called it says theres a massive skeleton

lethal moat
lethal moat
pine owl
#

Imagine mutations allow you to do things that others cant, and can only be spread by generations, like arboreal generations of omniraptors adapted to climbing and stuff

lethal moat
#

Would be sick

pine owl
#

Man, i feel bad for the strains

#

poor animals are treated like monsters locked up in a literal "hell"

lethal moat
#

Hyper starves constantly, we don’t know much about the others

pine owl
#

hyper is constantly in pain from starvation

lethal moat
pine owl
#

and others are likely constantly being experimented on in gruesome experiments

#

ik

#

just nerding out rn

lethal moat
pine owl
#

Hopefully poor things dead

lethal moat
pine owl
#

ngl i rememebr seeing hyper utah

#

when i was like 12 first playing legacy

#

and i wanted that thing so bad

lethal moat
#

Yeah, old legacy stuff

pine owl
#

do you know what a reaper is? I have no idea what they are

lethal moat
pine owl
#

hmm

#

okay this is actually cool ngl

swift echo

n spino when

lethal moat
pine owl

swift echo
#

kidnapping another?

lethal moat
#

Devblog time, brb

pine owl
#

Hope we get to see more trail cams showing more uhm classified assets

#

and not just normal everyday predators like troodon and stuff

lethal moat
#

Nice, GUTS entrance stuff

fast forge
lethal moat
scarlet verge
#

I'm ready for the devblog breakdown lol

young viper
hexed forge
#

Awesome sauce

pine owl
# lethal moat I want more of everything

I really want more new named assets, maybe a experimental omniraptor, not a strain but with just tinkered DNA and odd behavior, maybe developing habit to pounce and pin prey passing down generations to current omniraptors?

#

WAIT

lethal moat
pine owl
#

what if omniraptor was the experimental asset that came from utah? Or utah is the new asset created from omniraptor?

#

Like utah being new gen omni and omni old gen?

lethal moat
#

Omniraptor is a mix of other raptors, thus the name, Utahraptor will be it’s own thing eventually

pine owl
#

im actually going schizo mode mb

lethal moat
#

The entirety of the podcast’s third episode lol

pine owl
#

do NOT let me in charge of this games lore 🗣️

lethal moat
#

Yeah, Dondi says some spooky things

#

And we have different visions of what AE is

#

I see them as good guys making necessary sacrifices, @hexed forge thinks otherwise

pine owl
#

AE stands for apollo engineering?

lethal moat
#

Yes

pine owl
#

OH, based on what you said i understand what "Thousand Life Contract" means now

pine owl
#

no

pine owl
#

lol

lethal moat
hexed forge
#

AE is the government that is trying to take your soul away, you need to run before they get you. Run and live in the northern part of Canada. Rumple is merely just a spy for them. Run till you cant no more /j

#

(joke)

pine owl
#

I dont know much i dont think AE are the good guys, companys like them making new life and stuff like rebirthing their assets always have some devious mission

meager junco
#

She’s only heard not seen

#

And has supposedly been on dondis mind for a while

pine owl
#

Are the first assets of a species, have much different characteristics then later generations? For example, different proportions, behaviors, vocal sounds, etc?

hexed forge
#

I believe AE is a good guy too, but bad ways to reach their goal.

pine owl
#

or are they just later generations but old

lethal moat
meager junco
#

Galli for instance

pine owl
lethal moat
#

36 generations of dibble

pine owl
#

Then later his abilites passed down

#

and now climbing herreras are deemed "normal"

lethal moat

More strain stuff would be cool

meager junco
#

Bring me hyper Shirley TI_MinmiBongo

lethal moat
#

I’m more interested in tisso to be honest, we know more about the hyper already (probably)

pine owl
#

give me a named omniraptor TI_MinmiBongo

pine owl
lethal moat
pine owl
#

Man. I sure do hope theres not a giant mutant mafia boss omniraptor living in docks!

hexed forge
lethal moat
meager junco
pine owl
#

Wait, let me get this straight, are the dinosaurs all escaped assets, or are they just supervised, kind of like isla nublar's dinosaurs? Wild but techinally not

meager junco
#

I also like the classified thing in the new devblog for Rex TI_Troll

lethal moat
pine owl
lethal moat
#

Dondi, if you’re watching, could you possibly provide some sustenance for us starving lore folk HypsiPlink

meager junco
#

Either it’s got something to do with strains, or it’s got a special ability that has a sweet sound to it

#

MORE LORE

pine owl
#

I hope the isle evrima becomes a "horror game", for both humans and dinos

#

legacy was a NIGHTMARE when i first played

lethal moat
pine owl
#

i was like 12 that was so scary with the loud booming music with the uncommon echoing roars through the pitch black night

meager junco
#

I’m just waiting to put on some camo and hide in a bush, with a loaded gun

#

Shoot me some Dino’s

lethal moat
pine owl
#

evrima could be such a scary game ngl

lethal moat
#

Fill out the roster more and you’ll have to guess what’s in the dark based off of the weight of the footsteps TI_DangerRex

pine owl
#

I think animals like Omni or Troodon could be scary imo

meager junco
#

The underground could be a complete different world…

lethal moat
pine owl
pine owl
meager junco
#

We also need them Vats TI_MinmiBongo

lethal moat
#

Yeah

meager junco
#

Ben when

pine owl
# lethal moat

In 5 years if the game doesnt look like this im never playing it again

lethal moat
pine owl
#

Yes

lethal moat
pine owl
#

I think omni would be scarier, hyper intelligent, large enough to obliterate you in seconds, small enough to fit anywhere, hunts in packs, probably hangs around human buildings

#

not to mention is at least 10 times faster then you

lethal moat
#

Apparently utah will be more of a brawler, so I see omni doing hit and runs on human groups and utahs diving in and shredding

pine owl
#

and its kitchen knife claws and that could spill your intestines everywhere in a single slash

#

i just have so much hope for this game man

meager junco
#

I’m just wondering if along the line of the pin and pounce, if troodon will be able to pin a human If a few jump on it

lethal moat
#

Same, just got to weather out the wait ||by begging for more lore||

lethal moat
meager junco
pine owl
#

like 4 omnis could pin a carno, if the mass of the omnis or troodons is at least a bit greater then the animal it get spinned

#

with them all weighing them down

meager junco
pine owl
#

I wish devs would expand on the horror factor

meager junco
#

Like rump said, music would help

#

Nice joyful music in the day is fine, but at night, it should be dark and somber

lethal moat
#

Whenever music starts playing at night I usually stop what I’m doing and check out what’s around me just to be sure

swift echo
#

have we informed snowy about the neuros

meager junco
#

That one track always makes me think something is around me

meager junco
lethal moat
pine owl
swift echo
pine owl
#

for example deadly secrets would play when near a apex

lethal moat
#

Mhm

#

I think Evrima will be significantly scarier when larger predators are in

pine owl
#

I think smaller predators are scarier then the big bois

lethal moat
#

I’ve been jumpscared by ceras as a galli a few times

pine owl
#

At least they could eat you in a few bites

#

small guys like Troodon would eat you alive in swarms with no regard if your alive or not

lethal moat
#

Like the dilo concept art

pine owl
#

carno you would likely die instantly from the headbutt

#

Alberto safe to say your dead the second those jaws clamp on you

#

Rex? You'd be reduced to a red paste

lethal moat
pine owl
#

yes

#

Thats why the smaller dinos are scarier imo

#

you cant hear them coming but they damn sure can hear you

lethal moat
#

That dread of big things is worse for me I think

pine owl
#

thats actually fair

lethal moat
#

The adrenaline

#

Small guys I can run to a more advantageous position before dying

pine owl
#

The sound of something literally capable of ripping buildings apart slowly walking around while you cant do nothing but sit there praying it doesnt smell you

pine owl
#

you ruined the vibe 😭

#

jk

lethal moat
#

I do that sometimes

#

I want a large vat to have a deformed neuro in it

acoustic osprey
#

This is interesting
Especially with habitation enclosures

#

And connects to GUTS as well

lethal moat
#

Bulkhead is a fun word

acoustic osprey
#

Not surprised though

#

If GUTS truly connects to basically everything
Don't want animals roaming around easily

lethal moat
#

Plus just protected transportation

#

Except from minmi dryo homalio and proto TI_DangerRex

acoustic osprey
#

Also the scaffolding

lethal moat
#

Construction stuff unfinished projects makes me think gateway definitely wasn’t purposefully abandoned

acoustic osprey
#

Which looks pretty brand new though

#

So maybe AE hasn't really fully left

#

At least
Maybe gen2s weren't sent? But were left there to continue

lethal moat
#

Or it could be for gen 2 when rebuilding things

#

Lots of potential

acoustic osprey
#

Potentially

lethal moat
#

Potentially UnderConstruction

opaque maple
#

Anyone else notice that the loading screen logo is made up of mRNA codons

lethal moat
#

Yep

opaque maple
#

Anyone translated them?

Imagine if homalo actualky could fight

lethal moat
pine owl
#

dont think that was a sub

#

i would about fresh spawn

#

sub would dwarf the little angry man

lethal moat
pine owl
#

i thought guts was a protected area?

#

forgot gateway is abandoned

lethal moat
#

It’s massive underground tunnels, might be able to be partially closed off, but there’s a lot of open areas currently

pine owl
#

i would imagine it as a rex nest ngl

lethal moat
#

I think it depends on how often people will use it

#

If people are able to map it and navigate it to easily and safely get to a precise location, they will do so

pine owl
#

wish people played troodon more, maybe it would spice up human dinosaur interaction

#

specifically mercs

lethal moat
#

I love troodon

#

Favorite playable

pine owl
#

same

#

its a shame its so frowned on cuz of how "weak" it is

lethal moat
#

Troodon rework will hopefully pull through very nicely

pine owl

but in reality if u have a good coordinated pack u can kill ceratos

pine owl
#

has it been said how to be a hyper dino? Become really old?

acoustic osprey
#

Nothing yet confirmed

lethal moat
#

That’s probably Tartarus

acoustic osprey
#

We had something a while back
But who knows now

lethal moat
#

GUTS is just transportation areas

pine owl
#

oh

acoustic osprey
pine owl
#

is guts a massive channel

pine owl

if so there should be trains or smth if gateway was once inhabited

i want lore of the dinos

#

not Olympus or whatever

#

just normal dinos

pine owl
#

not strains or anything

lethal moat
pine owl
#

I assume thats dilo

lethal moat
#

I don’t think so, but maybe

pine owl
#

troodon and dilo do share some characteristics

#

such as nocturnal behavior, strange calls, both have venom, both hunt in packs, both are quick

lethal moat
#

Yep

pine owl
#

i assume troodon is mixed breed of dilo omni

#

or velo

lethal moat
#

I think it’s either velo or megalania, leaning towards velo

pine owl
#

velo gene most dominant clearly

lethal moat
#

That’s my guess

pine owl
lethal moat
#

Both have venom, and that venom assists in pursuit hunting

pine owl
#

way of locomotion in water?

lethal moat
pine owl
#

hm fair

lethal moat
#

I tend to focus towards AE doctrine and gen 1 when thinking about lore

#

I like the company TI_MinmiBongo

#

Nothing weird going on here

fast forge
lethal moat
#

Mhm

#

I’ll take it

acoustic osprey
#

could be
but the direction aspect with 291 might be otherwise

lethal moat
#

I’m invested in 291 being a spy of some sort

#

Likely from an “external hostile force”

acoustic osprey
#

holy war!!

lethal moat
#

Wait

#

A heavy shotgun is a cannon with grapeshot

acoustic osprey
#

nothing important sending here
but

#

this bit

#

this is not the interior for that bit but above and behind it

#

which views upon the atrium of the enclosure, which is nice

#

but you can tell
that the fences actually move and the atrium becomes wider

#

as you can see within this photo near the top centre of the photo

lethal moat
acoustic osprey
#

which
is pretty interesting
makes you wonder how big the actual enclosure is

#

however
it's actually worth noting
it might not actually be the enclosure getting wider

#

might be that the actual elevation changes

lethal moat
#

Looks roughly two stories tall

acoustic osprey
#

that's interesting
i wonder if that's just a map thing or it's meant to be like that in-game as well

acoustic osprey
#

look how small the doors are in comparison to the whole building (in the actual atrium of it)

acoustic osprey
acoustic osprey
lethal moat
acoustic osprey
lethal moat
#

Yeah, the map changes in elevation like you said, it dips down a bit

lethal moat
#

What’s down there TI_DangerRex

acoustic osprey
#

yeah
why the change!!

lethal moat
#

GUTS ELEVATOR Cat_Scream_Rage

acoustic osprey
#

also the buoy!!

lethal moat
#

And the cranes

#

Might just be the one

#

Nice to see actual perspective for that crane, it’s bigger than I realized

acoustic osprey
#

yeah, looks like it

#

can't wait to see this behemoth in game though

lethal moat
#

The biggun

acoustic osprey
#

check
i wonder if the thing on the bottom right is a WIP enclosure

lethal moat
#

Could be

#

Reusing pieces of the enclosure for GUTS bulkheads make me think they’ll be decently well defended, which makes sense

acoustic osprey
#

if they will be reused or not

#

guessing so for any enclosure-type connecting to GUTS though

lethal moat
#

It just lists entrances as what’s being reused

#

Maybe thats whats in the lower portion of the map

acoustic osprey
lethal moat
#

My bad

#

Looks like the bulkhead is what will be reused, which is mostly an entrance but eh

#

Wonder what sort of barriers they’ll have

#

Door or anti-car barricade poles

fast forge
#

so were any of the doorways shown on that structure actually entries to GUTS?

#

they mentioned it, but they all just look like normal doorways

lethal moat
#

I bet it’s that de-elevated portion of the map we can’t see TI_MinmiBongo

Seeing as people will very likely still do it

With or without lore

I think it’s the northern lake

Which is really more of a northern middle

I think
Can't remember

#

I believe it's likely just a GUTS entrance

median shuttle
#

I was mainly shitposting but thats actually interesting

lethal moat
#

I think Tartarus will connect to GUTS, and maybe to a facility on the surface, but I doubt a direct connection except maybe as an emergency evacuation route

acoustic osprey
#

Yeah
I don't believe it'll connect to the resupply points

#

Directly

hexed forge
#

We can probably find out how it connects via the ",map", on the errant thing

#

But then, is Olympus in gateway...?

#

I have been at NE today and didnt see anything yet, might have missed it tho

meager junco
#

It’s right by that watchtower in NE

#

Let me get a pic of the map and the area it’s in

#

And it’s nothing major, literally just an extra drinking spot on the coasts

fast forge
#

that watchtower

meager junco
#

Yeh north of east plains

#

I call that area kinda NE still

#

But yeh that’s it

hexed forge
#

huh, I ran by it today didnt see it. Mustve been blind lmao. Gonna check it soon

meager junco
#

It’s literally just like a giant pond

#

Nothing crazy

hexed forge
#

Hm.... I have suspicion that its nothing new but I will check just incase

meager junco
#

Like I said yesterday, I was asking around if anyone else had seen it before and I just got cat telling me they added it, so irdk myself if it’s really new from the HT

fast forge
hexed forge
#

There wasnt, if that even is freshwater

meager junco
#

It is

#

I drank from it yesterday

hexed forge
#

I cant get in the game to check TI_RIP

#

I'll check once I hold my herrera's head underwater...

meager junco
#

I mean

#

I’m not far away from it, but I’m also starving and halfway to the MZ

#

And it just changed on me.

fast forge
#

I'm just heading there as ptera

#

although it's raining and nighttime...

meager junco
#

Hope you find it, at least you got the light post at the watchtower so you’ll know if you’re close

fast forge
#

will probably just have to continue to head that way and wait for day if any time is left when I get to the area

meager junco
#

There it is! Like I said, nothing fancy, but useful

fast forge
#

While we are on the subject of this area, I think this big open spot would be good for human stuff

meager junco
#

Yeh there’s a few spots like that, where roads lead to nothing and big open spaces are where it ends

fast forge
#

there's one out on the islands (kinda hard to see the road here)

meager junco
#

That the southern island?

#

It got touched up last patch, I saw when I was in admin mode

#

Before HT

fast forge
#

top part yeah

meager junco
#

Yeh that island is definitely special, been on my radar for a while, especially since there’s tunnel entrances

fast forge
#

oh I see them on islemaps

meager junco
#

Yeh there’s 4 iirc? They might not all be on islemaps tho

#

There’s likes 2 on the eastern side, and 2 on the western side of that island

#

Oh yeh I remember seeing more last time

#

Makes you wonder how important that island is

fast forge
#

Closer view - little purple dots are entrances

acoustic osprey
#

however, to note though, they're genuinely quite weird and unneeded

fast forge
acoustic osprey
#

albeit maybe it's changed in this HT?

fast forge
#

I flew over them in HT and didn't see anything unique

acoustic osprey
#

all the same tunnels are still there?

fast forge
#

just 8 tunnels

#

I actually didn't know they were there before

lethal moat
acoustic osprey
fast forge
#

they seemed to be in pairs, with one on each side of a hill

acoustic osprey
#

however
it's hard to assume much of that island

it's likely the least of Jaces' and Dondi's worries for worldbuilding

acoustic osprey
fast forge
#

ohhhhhh

#

monorail?

#

and just passes through the hill instead of over

acoustic osprey
#

iirc, the Xmas ST Gateway didn't have a monorail line going over there
but

#

likely an earlier version did

#

looking at the two connection points up north and down south

fast forge
#

oh yeah definitely

acoustic osprey
#

it may be returning once they feel ready to rebring the monorail line

lethal moat
fast forge
#

I'm ready for that day

acoustic osprey
fast forge
lethal moat
acoustic osprey
#

these seem like they could "sway" into eachother as monorail lines

acoustic osprey
# lethal moat The monorail

I mean, you don't really need specific maintenance tunnels for such
I presume it's just so they can pass through the island itself

#

altitude and anything relating to "trains" don't go very well together

lethal moat
#

Yeah

acoustic osprey
lethal moat
#

But just a spot for engineers to get through rather than for trucking or something

acoustic osprey
#

it's easier to just build a temporary or perma stair system

#

or designate a specific tunnel to work on the monorail itself

#

than make it for maintenance

lethal moat
fast forge
#

a circuit kinda like this

lethal moat
#

Could be

fast forge
#

and also the entry/exit points on the island

acoustic osprey
lethal moat
#

I think the monorail will be different than what we’ve already seen

acoustic osprey
hexed forge
acoustic osprey
#

but if the monorail specifically goes slower
it would still work

lethal moat
#

Could be a loading station nearby there

fast forge
# acoustic osprey even cooler!!

I wonder why it needs tunnels for the outer portions but not when it runs through the middle of the island, but perhaps that's a central hub or station that is elevated

I dont think the term "fortified" would be the correct term

#

Like are we talkin weapons or smthn, idk

fast forge
lethal moat
hexed forge
#

Yea

hexed forge
fast forge
hexed forge
#

If they dont have underwater tunnels which is unlikely

hexed forge
#

Well probably not directly to the outposts.

lethal moat
#

We’re going to map out as much of GUTS as fast as we can when we get it lol

hexed forge
fast forge
#

GUTS is probably primarily for shipping and production, outposts don't need supplied that much

lethal moat
hexed forge
lethal moat
#

A distribution point

hexed forge
#

yea

acoustic osprey
#

don't forget
Don referred to areas such as K15 and I12 as resupply points

hexed forge
#

Currently looking at the monorail path that goes from south island. It goes into the mountain west of swamp and then north into the Perimeter or/and South dome.

#

Perimeter being this "Distribution point"?

lethal moat
#

There could be multiple, one in perimeter might make sense

hexed forge
#

Atleast a secton of Perimeter.

hexed forge
#

These domes could contain some of these distribution points

#

Ooo, I think I got the circle of the monorail path around the island

#

Horrible circle but- you ge the idea

#

In northern jungle there was also a path caused from the old monorail so there was def a monorail there.

lethal moat
#

Looks good to me, there’s just a lot that they can do with the monorail and I look forward to seeing what they choose

fast forge
acoustic osprey
#

there was a monorail section here near the north of the volcano, going over the dam, into the volcano

#

so it's definitely a possibility

#

if you want to go more in-depth
putting down which parts would connect to GUTS or not would be cool

lethal moat
#

Mhm, even then, those island tunnel locations could change as well

lethal moat
#

It’s not out of context, I’m just really bad at cropping and I’m tired lol

#

I’m going to drop this off as tomorrow’s topic and head to bed

#

I think it’s “how human are gen 1”

acoustic osprey
#

i think you can definitely look at it this way:
What if you knew that whoever or whatever made you and your people actually properly existed
Not in the spiritual "I can feel their presence" - not through a saint or prophet, not through the environment or the "feels", but through actual interaction.

#

yes
Gen1s likely, on a whole, probably don't have a very advanced cognitive function akin to "normal" humans

#

but it's basically like owning an animal
It knows you exist and it relies on you. So it's lifestyle and how it'll interact with the world will be, forever, changed

#

sure - potentially the Replicator probably doesn't spoon feed Gen1s

#

however
we know AE, at least, moderates and keeps up things within the island(s)

#

looking at how enclosures are confirmed now
it may very be that Gen1s, especially, may have some sort of larger contact with AE and (potentially) The Replicator

#

than a random native "tribal person" who has never interacted with the outside world

#

and such effect on the lifestyle and environment for Gen1s will definitely change their ways of interacting with "those from above" - like through "rough tribal/very archaic and primal" sacrifices

acoustic osprey
#

technically the opposite away round

#

include with PoT though
MMORPG without a story.

#

#

Wrong chat I think, the only place I see that one being is isle discussion and it seems out of place and just someone wanting problems

hexed forge
#

Currently mapping all the GUTS enterances on the main branch, not HT.

#

Is it possible for a monorail to be able to turn at this angle?

#

But it also really depends on the speed... if its transporting containers... it might be pretty slow and then speed up when actually crossing the ocean 🤔

#

Hm, is it even possible for a monorail to handle a large amount of weight? I know AE has some amazing technology, but im not sure if its possible right now at the current technology in real life.

#

But I guess there is def a possibility of AE's monorail handling that weight.

lethal moat
#

AE’s monorail is good

#

I think

#

I think the actual tram itself is going to be surprisingly large

hexed forge
#

Does anyone have a picture of Old gateway? Specifically the monorail track in south plains?

hexed forge
#

Nonono, it was a picture ingame. From the ST

#

Aha! Found south plains... Weird how Perimeter wasnt on the first public iteration of gateway.

#

Former GUTS enterance.

#

There was a monorail going straight into the volcano.

#

Another former GUTS enterance.

#

So yes, looks like the theory of the monorail going into all the domes is.... correct?

#

@acoustic osprey This weird section, was indeed a monorail route.

#

It seems like the Monorail tracks all go through the Domes

lethal moat
#

Through/under

#

Fence addict and Monorail addict TI_Hungry

#

Red is the GUTS enterances, Dotted black is underground routes, Black lines are surface routes.

#

White is this "Distribution point"

lethal moat
#

I like that map

hexed forge
#

But ofcourse, Volcano could be another Distribution point.

lethal moat
#

I like the idea of 2-3 loops that are connected

hexed forge
#

That was basically how it was on old gateway

meager junco
#

So now that Dibble is in the hordeteste, I think we can start hypothesizing what the Rex/Shirley video will be about, I personally think it’s either one of two things
A) Shirley is the first Rex specimen, or possibly even the first asset to have strains tested on them since she’s an early specimen (.003)
B) Her video will be sort of like Augustus mixed with dibble trailer, where Shirley breaks out and starts going from one spot of the island to another and a team sent by AE is trying to recapture her and place her back in her pen as so to speak, at least the area she’s supposed to be kept in

#

That’s just my thoughts tho, I wanna hear others idea on what the trailer might be

hexed forge
meager junco
#

Like one we make

hexed forge
#

That reminds me.. I still have to F finish my deino lore video..

#

I got distracted by HT and another game

hexed forge
#

Like.. Shirley gets injured from the trike... And tries to seek refuge in a human outpost

#

Maybe it got attracted to something in the outpost.. like food?

meager junco
hexed forge

hexed forge
acoustic osprey
#

I bet it'd be a bit hard/harder than doing Augustus and Dibble video

#

but it's THE Rex lore video (presumably with Shirley?)
go big or go home

hexed forge
#

If it is breaking into an outpost, I would like to see some humans running around panicking TI_DiloSip

hexed forge
acoustic osprey
#

you assume the idea of a distribution point

#

yet
what do you define as a distribution point

hexed forge
acoustic osprey
#

and distribution point of what

acoustic osprey
hexed forge
#

Port*

acoustic osprey
hexed forge
acoustic osprey
#

So then you know already which they are then

hexed forge
acoustic osprey
#

K15 and it's friends were labelled as such

lethal moat
hexed forge
fast forge
acoustic osprey
#

however
with the monorail
there's no real need for distribution points
As you'd be distributing whenever you're under or within a location

the only really needed "distribution point" is above ground and not connected to the monorail system

hexed forge
hexed forge
acoustic osprey
#

you're describing them as underground storage hubs

acoustic osprey
#

the only thing we have akin to that, right now, are locations like K15

#

however, nothing really to suggest there is such for the monorails

#

if anything
there may be storage facilities

but I wouldn't really be describing them as distribution points

#

but as just storage facilities/surplus storage
if needed

hexed forge
hexed forge
hexed forge
#

Ah yes, but isnt that all bases?

#

All the surface bases

acoustic osprey
fast forge
#

Could the resupply points have elevator access to underground monorail depots in GUTS?

acoustic osprey
#

we know some of the older STs had pre-prod-setups for GUTS entrances in them

#

specifically connecting to the monorail? No, not really

#

it'd be more likely they don't connect to the monorails
making them more mandatory as resupply points so anything on ground can have access without having to detour through GUTS to access "X" storage/aspect needed

hexed forge
#

Well the monorail delivers all the resources from the port. Obvisouly there is no monorail or GUTS enterance right under or next to one of the resupply points. So, there has to be some sort of place where the containers that are meant to be sent to the resupply points are held and shipped off via truck. That was what I meant when I referring it to as a distribution point. I see that I probably used the wrong term for it however. Thats mb

hexed forge
fast forge
#

fair

acoustic osprey
#

wouldn't really make it necessary for distribution points though, cera
unless you just mark "X" location (let's say Perm) as a temporary location for "X" vehicle to detour to access "X" piece of storage/material

but hard/static distribution points are less than likely
especially underground ones

#

which then "X" location at Perm would become a temporary location for collection

fast forge
acoustic osprey
# fast forge no central distribution? like Amazon warehouses?

unless Perm is a glorified mail service
which it could be
but we still have resupply points

Then it may be likely that Perm could be a mass storage hub
funnelling resources through to, on the ground, to those resupply points
or through GUTS, minus the monorail

hexed forge
fast forge
hexed forge
#

Perimeter can be used in many different ways, we have GUTS, multiple levels.

acoustic osprey
#

Perm or another big storage building
same function applies

fast forge
#

with associated storage, personnel housing, manufacturing, etc for a massive research complex

hexed forge
#

Top level being research
Middle Storage
Bottom level (insert)

fast forge
#

But I don't see Perimeter as any kind of hub for the distribution, transportation, or networking of Gateway

hexed forge
acoustic osprey
#

we can't really work with the now
and we can't really work with the "back then"

#

we don't even know what type of entrance is just a simple tunnel and what is a GUTS entrance, yet

hexed forge
#

Hm, were those enterances big or small

#

oh nvm

acoustic osprey
#

it could be basically the same as Vis hinted with the enclosures

#

we don't really know how big and how many tunnels there will be for GUTS

hexed forge
acoustic osprey
#

Perm has the most entrances out of anything

#

it's also the biggest and most unique building on Gateway

#

it likely has a larger and less individual service

fast forge
#

See I think the amount of connections to Perimeter is only a consequence of it's importance as a research hub - a massive biodome is going to need literal tons of resource and manpower

#

but this is mostly just headcanon for me

hexed forge
#

Yeah so it would make sense if most of the monorail routes connected to Perimeter

acoustic osprey
#

I doubt there will be much of the monorails on Gateway

hexed forge
#

A lot of resources needed = possibly a large storage area of those resources

acoustic osprey
#

they're not necessary for gameplay
I'm only guessing a singular route on the island itself

hexed forge
#

Ignore the distribution point circle for now in the image.
