One last thing before sleep

If AE is in a competition with other companies, what are they competing for

[acoustic osprey]

money, power, corporate dominance

a few potential ones

[hexed forge]

[nimble fractal]

I would say
AE is a possibly private gov. company, so if there are any leaks/new science discoveries and other companies try to utilize any AE's ideas, they are being removed to tartarus and their lineage displaced idk Im still sane enough to no- nvm

Thinking of, the server selection screen could be where AE facilities are located

yeah I know, I already did a whole analysis

[cunning flame]

okay so AE or apollo engineering made dinosaur like creatures and human like creatures and the dinosaur like creatures live on an island or summin

[plush widget]

could we possibly see

another lore hunt

[hexed forge]

Perhaps, maybe.

[plush widget]

Also Garry didnt make it...

[hexed forge]

rip

[icy spindle]

rex?

[hexed forge]

Might be an allo

[icy spindle]

Still rex?

[hexed forge]

might be an allo

But also, it could be either one

But honestly, this is lorechat. No shadow discussion here.

[patent ginkgo]

arm discussion

[hexed forge]

I rather have plant discussion

[patent ginkgo]

SO REEEAAAALLLLL

[hexed forge]

Kapoks everywhere on gateway.

The Kapok trees

[patent ginkgo]

actually they do have a fairly realistic form for the old, old growth ones

[hexed forge]

How long does it take a Kapok to grow to normal size?

[patent ginkgo]

depends, but they grow extremely fast

from what i can find up to 13 feet per year

and at full maximum height can get around 200 ft tall

or higher

[hexed forge]

Damn

Really big

[patent ginkgo]

however, i doubt that that thing is growing that tall in around 20 years

so, im gonna guess a more even 30-40 years for a good ol above-100 ft tree

cause normally trees dont grow very much in the first few years of life, and dont grow as much once mature size is reached either

all in all, a pretty average growth time

but featuring really fast growth

similar to hypers

[hexed forge]

[patent ginkgo]

also one of the largest trees in the world

and found this as well...

"These very large trees are in the Neotropics or tropical Africa. The Southeast Asian form of C. pentandra only reaches ninety feet (27 meters)."

Neotropics reffering to, basically south/central america

[hexed forge]

I wonder if some Kapoks on Gateway had accelerated growth. AE doing tests.

Botany sector when please

[patent ginkgo]

please

[hexed forge]

Well not on Gateway sadly

Makes me think that the errant "map" isnt on gateway

[patent ginkgo]

I hope we get another lore hunt pretty soon

Didn't participate in the first one

[fast forge]

it probably takes some time to create, and that first one was kinda just the trial run for this sort of community event

Although I'd be a bit surprised if we don't get something fun for rex release

[lethal moat]

It’s a single post it note with Shirley taped to it with grid coordinates of a manhole cover you can use to get early access to GUTS

[hexed forge]

I dont think we are getting another lore hunt this year sadly

Tsk tsk

[fast forge]

Yes. Supposedly some English nobleman had one on his estate in the 1800's and he'd invite his friends over to look at the exotic plants on his property. The story goes that when they saw the Araucaria one man said "it would puzzle a monkey to climb that tree"

Understandably so

These are also one of the most common trees seen in paleo art, with a distinctive "umbrella" shape

[unique eagle]

Derg has noticed a pattern! All the cool people hang out here.

[patent ginkgo]

this may be correct

[unique eagle]

Derg has noticed that derg was /invited/ here. Does that mean derg is cool?

What if that island is evrima

[hexed forge]

It is not

[lethal moat]

oH, LEGACY

[hexed forge]

Thats the archipelago of V3

A cool area, very unfinished.

[hexed forge]

Caps lock!!

[outer solstice]

Oh lol

[muted reef]

W...wha?

[fast forge]

evrima isn't even an island (I think?)
Gateway is the name of the current evrima island
Spiro was the old evrima island

[hexed forge]

They know now

Just bombarded them with pings

[outer solstice]

😭

[acoustic osprey]

Lol

[cinder atlas]

Leave my hangout alone. >:(

[outer solstice]

What.

[hexed forge]

Wouldnt it be cool if gen2 can take care of the ranger bases and basically remove foliage, fix fences, etc.

[lethal moat]

Yep

[meager junco]

Wasn’t fixing bases confirmed a while back?

[lethal moat]

Fences are confirmed, I wouldn't be surprised if there was more

[meager junco]

Ah that’s what I thought

[hexed forge]

Ah thats nice, then cleaning up the overgrown foliage is likely too

[meager junco]

Btw do most bases have a generator somewhere?

[hexed forge]

I think so yes

[lethal moat]

Mobile generator goes brrrr

[meager junco]

Get the jerry can jimmy! We need POWAH

[hexed forge]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-kitty-storm-lightning-cloudy-gif-12130957635672827052

[meager junco]

Now I’m thinking about electrified fences, and how much it’ll actually be able to stop some animals

[lethal moat]

Slap a power generator on the back of the UTV and have a maintanance vehicle

[meager junco]

Slap a mounted turret on the big rig

[hexed forge]

Anything that needs to bite the fences and are relatively small would probably not try to get in.

For example I dont think a Carno can break a fence, nor a cerato.

[meager junco]

Agreed, I’d imagine apexs can smash through, but will cause some pain to it

[hexed forge]

Yep

[meager junco]

Also depends on the Voltage, if it’s like JP and it’s 10k, it’s not a fun shock

[hexed forge]

I think it says 1k voltage on the fences

I can go check

[lethal moat]

https://tenor.com/view/електрошок-воскреситьмашину-electric-shock-resurrect-the-car-ouch-gif-15257685

[hexed forge]

He literally started floating lmao

Mmm, doesnt say the voltage.

High radio frequencies...

I assume thats not actually lore- Right? And its just a placeholder thing

[lethal moat]

I'd say it could be lore

[meager junco]

Anyways was looking at voltage and how deadly it can be, humans can survive 10k if the current is small enough, but a big current will kill you

[hexed forge]

Mmmm

[fast forge]

So they are governed by the FCC? The Federal Communications Commission of the US?

[hexed forge]

It might be a placeholder

might

[meager junco]

Wasn’t that the radiation thing that Isaac was talking about

[hexed forge]

No idea

So outside the bases the radio frequency levels are high? Or is that referring to inside the base. I assume outside tho judging by the side its on.

[meager junco]

Probably anything within the perimeter of the base prob, proper protection would be needed I’d assume but that’s not my field of expertise

[hexed forge]

But the sign is inside the base, "Beyond this point", the sign is next to the gate leading to the outside

[meager junco]

Again, not my field of expertise

[hexed forge]

Neither is it my field of expertise, Im just theorizing. But it makes sense if its outside the bases.

[meager junco]

Ah here

[lethal moat]

Might be to prevent any potential radio signals from interfering with AE’s work, more to protect AE than to protect the workers

[hexed forge]

Ah, so a deterrent to dinos trying to get close to the base?

[lethal moat]

Sound alarm maybe

[meager junco]

I just like the idea of “getting near a base makes your Dino sick/hurt” don’t even need to touch fences

[hexed forge]

High Radio frequencies

[lethal moat]

I think it’s a proximity alarm

[lethal moat]

From trigger to the actual alarm

[hexed forge]

Unless you are an insane EIP asking for help

Feral EIP

[hexed forge]

I dont get it

[lethal moat]

They trigger something, and then that sends radio waves to trigger lights and sirens

[hexed forge]

Also this perhaps makes the hazmat suits actually lore

Maybe Don changed some stuff

[meager junco]

Could be an alarm, or could be isaacs idea, with generators around every base it does make more sense for electrified fences and no radio wave radiation

[meager junco]

I wouldn’t be surprised if they actually do get put in game for lore reason, especially with stuff like “neuro goo”

[hexed forge]

Why did AUGUSTUS not trigger an alarm then?

[lethal moat]

Motion capture ~ alarm

[meager junco]

Wait cera has a point, dudes just chilling on the fences

How did he not get fried

[hexed forge]

I dont think its an alarm

[lethal moat]

I don’t think we’ve had any indication the fences are electrified

[hexed forge]

No sirens, lights, etc.

[meager junco]

No but that’s what I mean, maybe fences aren’t electrified and they use something else to ward off creatures

[lethal moat]

Like loud noises and lights?

[hexed forge]

The light

[lethal moat]

[hexed forge]

ACTUALLY, nvm.

Yeah ignore the light part

[meager junco]

Would loud noises actually work? Ik in the real world, doing stuff like that actually works

[hexed forge]

Thought this could indicate it could be electrified

[meager junco]

Not 100% of the time but it works

[hexed forge]

Maybe the fence isnt electrified, it contains a high level of radio frequencies somehow.

Makes sense for the warning

[meager junco]

That’s what I mean

[lethal moat]

Probably wouldn’t hurt, and even if it didn’t scare them off, it would let everyone nearby know something is close

[hexed forge]

There is no "Electricity" warning at a base. Soo.. Perhaps..

[meager junco]

Good point, Dino alarm actually sounds like something they’d do

[hexed forge]

And AUGUSTUS was somehow immune to those radio frequencies

[fast forge]

https://tenor.com/view/electrocuted-just-kidding-electric-fence-pretend-faking-it-gif-16077103

[hexed forge]

I really doubt they use sirens.

[meager junco]

Tbf idk how long it takes for radio waves to take effect

Could be longer than we imagine

[hexed forge]

Mmm idk

[lethal moat]

Some sort of alarm is probably a good idea

[meager junco]

https://tenor.com/view/jurassic-park-dinosaur-raining-nom-gif-20228251

[fast forge]

I looked them up
Basically they start to microwave you
You overheat, start to sweat, but your body heats up faster than you can naturally dissipate the heat
Not too terrible for short periods, but you don't wanna sit in it

[meager junco]

Oh wait I can recreate that scene too! WE GOT GOATS

[meager junco]

Ok so it wouldn’t be an immediate effect, but still effective

[lethal moat]

Starts with a headache, like dehydration

[meager junco]

Would also work in the game as a debuff of sorts

[acoustic osprey]

Just radio-affied

[hexed forge]

Yes, only in serious situations tho. Not when a dino gets close

[fast forge]

I don't think they were using the dangerous radio waves as a deterrent, I think it's just a byproduct of the tech
I think the base fences were electrified

[lethal moat]

I think those lights are connected to radio transmission

[meager junco]

I’m just thinking of what cera said which is a good point, if they are electrified, they would’ve certainly been on in AUGUSTUS, and he just, chills on the fences, not caring

[fast forge]

was it on the fences?

[lethal moat]

Maybe H6 was abandoned

[meager junco]

One scene yeh

Nighttime one , where you hear shirley 1 calling

[fast forge]

close to a fence, but can't see if the camera is on it

[meager junco]

Maybe but the lights are on, which usually indicates if a fence is electrified, Ik it can be for radio

[meager junco]

Not this scene

[lethal moat]

I doubt the fences are electrified

[meager junco]

Nextiirc

[fast forge]

ah here

[meager junco]

Yeh that one

He likes them fences

[fast forge]

so hard to even tell if it's a fence, but it's got the red light

[meager junco]

Yeh I’m not 100% sure it’s on the fence to be Frank with you, but it seems like that’s where he’s pouncing from

[hexed forge]

They arent

[meager junco]

Good job pointing that out btw lol

[lethal moat]

Wonder is Apollo ever messed with quantum computing

[hexed forge]

As Isaac said, Radio-fied

I hate quantum physics

[meager junco]

Sounds like something they’d do

[lethal moat]

Maybe it’s less about the fence and more about the box/light

https://tenor.com/view/lights-on-red-light-panic-hide-peek-gif-10375681

Dinosaur alarm

[hexed forge]

Or it could just be an indication of the fence being on.

[lethal moat]

What does the fence do?

[hexed forge]

Emit radio frequencies (somehow)

[meager junco]

Plot twist:they’re using a neuro as security and using them to make the fences radioactive

[hexed forge]

https://tenor.com/view/briankik-turn-around-hedgehog-mrbond-gif-24320492

[lethal moat]

For what purpose

[fast forge]

What?
The towers emit the radio waves

the warning on the fences just tell you when you are nearing them

[hexed forge]

Keep dinosaurs away from the bases perhaps

[lethal moat]

How does it do that?

[hexed forge]

Hold on

[fast forge]

I really doubt the fences are emitting radio waves

[hexed forge]

Anything can emit radio frequencies

[fast forge]

ok but we know they have a big complex radio system
Olympus transmitter
animal radio tracking
radio towers
and you're gonna say it's the fences?

[lethal moat]

I don’t think it’s about the fences

[fast forge]

https://tenor.com/view/doubt-press-x-la-noire-meme-x-button-gif-19259237

[lethal moat]

The box is attached to the light

[hexed forge]

If its the radio towers then wouldnt the entire base be filled with the radio frequency too tho..?

[fast forge]

yes, it would

[hexed forge]

Which is not the case with the sign

[fast forge]

it's proximity

[lethal moat]

You’re filled with radio frequency, because it’s everywhere, it’s why you can’t charge a phone from across the room

[hexed forge]

The sign says that the radio frequencies are dangerous past the point of the fences, (AKA outside the base)

[fast forge]

yes, like how signs at a base holding nuclear material would be located outside of the base, as a warning...

[hexed forge]

AE developed some sort of technology to increase the radio frequency of certain objects, fences. Somehow, idk.

[lethal moat]

But why tho

[hexed forge]

Keep dinosaurs away from bases

[lethal moat]

Nobody does anything without a reason

[lethal moat]

How

[fast forge]

I don't know if y'all really know how radio waves work...

[hexed forge]

Its not the same warning

[lethal moat]

It’s a type of radiation

[fast forge]

it's not

like, straight up

at least not particle radiation

electromagnetic radiation, like light

[hexed forge]

I might have to check again, but the bottom text says you will literally be cooked beyond that point. Maybe I dont remember it correctly tho.

[lethal moat]

I always mix this up, my bad, radiation is a type of wave, like light, x-ray, microwave, and radio

[hexed forge]

Ahhh screw it gonna log on and check

[lethal moat]

Specifically gamma radiation

Is what I’m referring to

Because that’s the one most people seem to know

[fast forge]

Bottom says
"Failure to obey all posted signs and --- guidelines for working in radio frequency environments could result in serious injury"

[hexed forge]

Hmm

ye it likely says that

The free admin server Im using literally just restarted so I cant even check

Anyways, I still believe the fence could be emitting radio frequencies.

Why not the radio towers? Well they would just cover the entire base no? (Cover the entire base in radio frequencies)

[lethal moat]

I disagree

There is little to no reason for it

[hexed forge]

Mmmm

[acoustic osprey]

Light, xray, microwave
Are all radiation, just non-ionising

[lethal moat]

Yes

[acoustic osprey]

Xray being basically the limit before it's just pure dangerous

[hexed forge]

What are the radio frequenices in your opinion then?

[lethal moat]

Those are receiving radio frequencies, or, it’s a standard warning

[acoustic osprey]

https://tenor.com/view/nuh-uh-nuh-uh-scout-tf2-gif-12750436057634665505

[lethal moat]

I was correct, I’m just really bad at conveying what I think lol

[hexed forge]

By standard warning are you referring to the sign?

[lethal moat]

Yes

[hexed forge]

So you think there is just a high level of radio frequencies for just a random reason?

[lethal moat]

Radio tower

[hexed forge]

Most of the radio towers are within the ranger stations, the radio frequencies would go out in all directions. That means the radio frequency would also be within the base. Judging by the warning. It's only outside the base.

The high level frequencies are only outside the bases judging by the warning

[lethal moat]

Maybe tracking chips then

[hexed forge]

I doubt that too

[lethal moat]

I agree

But I don’t think the fences themselves emit radio waves, it seems purposeless that way

[hexed forge]

Mmmm might be the little boxes on the fences. Or just the light perhaps? The red light. Not sure

[lethal moat]

That’s what I’m thinking

[hexed forge]

But then AUGUSTUS

[lethal moat]

What about him?

[hexed forge]

He got close to the base and climbed the fence.

My guess is that H4 was actually abandoned at that time ngl. No personal/employees in the base, just power running off the backup generators

[acoustic osprey]

Lol

[fast forge]

no, they have a wide radius that extends to outside the base, hence the warning when you come into range
workers attending to the base would probably wear special hazmat-type suits with lead shielding

[acoustic osprey]

Might be why USER accessed externally

[hexed forge]

Exactly!

https://tenor.com/view/jack-sparrow-i-like-that-captain-jack-sparrow-little-jack-gif-15559683640369424147

[lethal moat]

It also could be a precautionary sign, like the danger signs on forklifts and microwaves

[fast forge]

I still think it's just someone accessing through their larger network
Possibly even rival company, and that's how they learned that there were dinosaurs, or anomalies (like Augustus)

[lethal moat]

I think so too

[acoustic osprey]

I mean
The warning sign is less of a "don't be silly and you could hurt yourself" sign

[hexed forge]

That seems like a horrible workplace lmao. Gotta maintain cars, file paperwork, etc in hazmat suits. Unlikely

[lethal moat]

Astronauts would like to have a word

[acoustic osprey]

I mean, the walls could be laced with aspects like lead to stop such radiation

[fast forge]

perhaps the warnings are old or legally required, and Gen 2 are immune...

[lethal moat]

I also think that it’s a warning of potential danger, rather than a promise of harm

[hexed forge]

Hmm

[acoustic osprey]

Still
They refer to it exceeding FCC regulations

[hexed forge]

Tell them that I spotted an Alien on Mars and they should continue their expedition

[fast forge]

It might just be long-term exposure is dangerous tbh
and they gotta have the warnings up for legal/HR reasons

[lethal moat]

Yes, exactly what I’m thinking

[acoustic osprey]

I presume it'd be mid-long term
Radio waves are less powerful than xray and gamma

[hexed forge]

Perhaps gen2 are immune, yes, but then the buildings would suffer damage too. (I think)

[fast forge]

proximity is a big thing with this kind of stuff too
If you are in a building 30 feet away the exposure danger is much lower than putting your butt on top of the transmitter

[fast forge]

nah, but it might affect computers

but it's radio frequencies, so probably not?

[muted reef]

Whats happening?

[hexed forge]

True

[lethal moat]

Do we truly know whats so different about Gen 2 than a regular human? What enhancements if any are there? I mean making them immune to this stuff could be useful

this final panel seems particularly enlightening

[lethal moat]

Interesting

[hexed forge]

Mmmm, i read that

Or atleast glanced over it

Honestly the warning might just be a false alarm and it could be not lore.

[lethal moat]

Probably

Let’s discuss the work environment at AE

[acoustic osprey]

It might just be like the CRT and other models

[hexed forge]

Yeah

[hexed forge]

Varies depending on your rank in the company

[acoustic osprey]

Final model
Just visual has some words that just are there as filler atm

[meager junco]

That’s honestly prob the perfect height, being too tall is a thing and so is being too small

[hexed forge]

Low level access would probably be just a... a more exotic 9-5 job certainly..

[lethal moat]

Maybe closer to a military contractor or a oil rig worker where you live at work

[muted reef]

6,1 sweet spot

[hexed forge]

Oil rig worker seems about right

[fast forge]

lol this acronym has an additional meaning in the US now

[hexed forge]

Nah over 6 feet is hell when you get older apparently

[meager junco]

That’s pretty tall, and most things are usually designed for people around 5 and a half? Something like that

[hexed forge]

Most things are designed for 6 feet

[muted reef]

Gen 2's aint gonna last that long

In fact do they age slower or do they just not

[hexed forge]

Being too tall and large won't help in hiding from dinosaurs tbf

[lethal moat]

Unknown

[hexed forge]

Their bodies probably do sustain damage, but then

Just switch bodies..

[muted reef]

I'd imagine they'd want to alter the pheromones released so that the dinosaurs don't smell the disgusting unshowered soldiers lmao

[hexed forge]

Semi-immortality with eips

[meager junco]

Things like Doorways yes, not things like countertops, tables, chairs, doorways have no choice to accommodate for tall people

[lethal moat]

Reload last save

[hexed forge]

Just the only difference is that you actually lose all the stuff if you died to a dinosaur

Well you can probably retrieve it

If we are talking about in-game aspects

[hexed forge]

Search it up..

It's indeed an uh oh

Wait maybe I'm looking at the wrong acronym

No

[hexed forge]

Does it include the word theory for you?

Changing topics now

[lethal moat]

What qualifications needed for AE?

[muted reef]

Desperateness is a bonus

[hexed forge]

Desperate
Lost in life
No where to go

I still believe that AE can be counted as an evil company!!

Evil company with good intentions

If AE were real and you were ceo would you run it the way it is in the game

And dont say yes thats cap

[lethal moat]

I don’t know enough about AE’s workings, but companies are made to profit

[muted reef]

Some of what AE does is extremely messed up and other things are of consent of the employed

[lethal moat]

What does AE do that’s so bad?

[hexed forge]

I have several reasons that I stated several times, I unfortunately don't have the time to state them right now as I have to go now.

Good night people 🫡

[lethal moat]

Peace out

[muted reef]

It was older stuff that we have started to disprove I believe so I take some of my statement back

[lethal moat]

You say murder via gen 1
I hear stopping a competitor from unrightfully stealing your assets

[muted reef]

Not that part

[lethal moat]

Is it about EIPs or Thousand Life Contract?

[meager junco]

What’s that don quote, something like
“If I wanted to make an evil company game, I’d continue playing resident evil instead.”

Can’t remember exactly

[lethal moat]

*generic evil company

[meager junco]

That’s what it was thankies

[muted reef]

Idk resident evil lore anyway nightg

[lethal moat]

But that gives me enough room to play devil’s advocate

[meager junco]

Basically making humanity better by injecting viruses that end up turning them into monsters

[lethal moat]

Some things might be worth the price

Like making the world safe from itself

What’s having a few people die a few thousand times if everyone’s future is safe

[meager junco]

Yeh it’s definitely not alike, iirc(haven’t played resident evil in a while so bear with me) literally tests on human civilians

[lethal moat]

I’d say that depends on exactly how recruiting for employment and whatever the Thousand Life Contract does

[meager junco]

True but I don’t see AE kidnapping people to test on them, if they signed the contract and knew what they were up against, that’s completely different

[lethal moat]

So AE can’t be evil then

[meager junco]

At least not “generic evil” like don said
Rather, great things come with sacrifice

[lethal moat]

Nothing is built without cost

But if the profit is worth it, some can be convinced to try it

[meager junco]

Mhm, I genuinely believe AE is trying to do the right thing, but have to go through those dark paths to get to where they want to be

[lethal moat]

[meager junco]

https://tenor.com/view/gasp-oh-no-sad-aww-huh-gif-12030706

[lethal moat]

But the other way around, saving the environment
But also still profit

[meager junco]

Profit is usually one of the main reasons for any company, they’d be downright dumb to not want any

[lethal moat]

The only reason to do something other than money is pleasure or future gain, all of which the replicator could potentially offer
An artificial fountain of youth is extraordinarily tempting

[ember rover]

This is very true though, lol. 50% of the time you hope there's no large pack of raptors, or a few carnos who want to try fighting 3+ cera's surviving together.

[meager junco]

Makes me wonder how successful they’ve been, we know they’re prob one, if not the biggest company irl, but are they billionaires? Trillionaires? I’d imagine trillions if they’ve been In business for 50+ years and being successful

Actually scratch that

Forgot trillion is like 10 0s LOL

[lethal moat]

They seem to sell a lot of “essential to live” products, like medicine and food, those companies tend to do well on account of their consumers having no choice but to pay high prices

[meager junco]

Yeh and if theyve been in agriculture business as well, that’s one of the biggest incomes possible

Everyone needs to eat

[lethal moat]

They may have rivals, but if they’re one of a few giants in the industry, they aren’t struggling for cash, as shown by the infrastructure on gateway alone

[meager junco]

Yeh that’s why I’m thinking maybe they’re rivals are the biggest, but AE is literally just steps away from surpassing them, and now they’ll do anything to ruin them

[lethal moat]

Or AE is on top and afraid to lose it

[meager junco]

Mhm, if anything, it’s a fight for who’s on top imo

[lethal moat]

Fight for survival at that point

[meager junco]

I love that honestly, the survive doesn’t just apply to us in the game, but also the company’s motivation

[lethal moat]

Retake the island or fall behind and lose everything

[meager junco]

Yeh which is a great reason for what we do,
“If we don’t take back our stuff, we’re all screwed.”

[lethal moat]

Sunk cost fallacy? Or can it actually be saved?

[meager junco]

Also another thing, if this truly is “world altering/ending” kind of situation, they knew once they started, there was no turning back, which is kind of a scary thought

Maybe AE is the only one to know that “the end” is close?

[lethal moat]

Or, the end is still far off, but AE has to be the one to fix it

[meager junco]

Mhm, cause if the rivals knew what they were doing, I feel like they’d be “oh crap they’re actually doing something for all of us”

[lethal moat]

I can profit off of their work

[meager junco]

LOL,
Rivals:I saved the world(literally just took all of AEs stuff and marketed as their own)

[lethal moat]

What if the TOMB was purged to stop others from getting it?

[meager junco]

Seems very likely honestly

Plus I’m sure they have backups of sorts, download everything into TOMB .2 kind of thing

[lethal moat]

Maybe, but that also depends on the contents and what it was used for

[acoustic osprey]

erm but i patented the work!

[lethal moat]

Change it enough to be different and make it faster

[viral lance]

by wil_iamr11
There should be a thing where humans go around with tranquillizer guns and hunting dinosaurs and putting then back in there cage. Which they also try break out again with and if they dont get out the humans have to feed them. and once to many dinosaurs get out of there habitat a alarm system goes of with order all of the people to leave the island and then theyll come back and try to get the island back under the control of them again. there will be a 5 player with you have to pay for which get forgoten on the island and they have a bulding mechanic so they can build bases and they try to get out . the workers have a job to keep the dinosaurs in there habitats and feed them the right a mount of food with has all the hex. They can also addAI humans with come and look at the animals than you can eat.

WHERE THEY WILL SPAWN
the babie dinos will spawn in a lab which the workers have to transport the dinosaurs to there cage once they get bigger enough at the age of juvenile then they get other release in to the big lands where herbivores and ai in gyrospheres go around. for the carnivores they get put into big habitats where ai humans can watch them and workers can feed them. and if they dont get feed they get a boost that makes them break out of there habitat easer

[lethal moat]

Sounds like Jurassic Park

[viral lance]

ik

but a you can play as both human and dinos

[lethal moat]

Yep, but this isn’t jurassic park, I’ll bet an unofficial server does something like that, but I highly doubt anything like this is intended for official servers/main game

[lethal moat]

Also, since you’re new, would you say that these are human?

[viral lance]

other type of humans

they can add

[lethal moat]

From my current understanding, gen 2 gameplay will be closer to JP 2 or JP 3 rather than the original

[viral lance]

yh

but i think the idea i have would bring alot of people in

[lethal moat]

Unofficials will probably take care of it, but that frankly sounds unfun for the dinosaur player imo

[spare halo]

yeah but who wants to play a dino locked in a cage

[viral lance]

its to break out again

[viral lance]

im saying some offical servers could have this game mode or osmething

[lethal moat]

And I’m saying I strongly disagree

[viral lance]

why

[lethal moat]

The isle has it’s own lore, it doesn’t need to be a JP ripoff

[viral lance]

JW

[spare halo]

Are we getting humans or humanoids is the better question looking at the art you posted Rumple got me curious lol

[lethal moat]

We are getting both

[spare halo]

oooh

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1184681758231363636/1219346714587304077/The_Isle_Lore.gif

[spare halo]

I could see more value in humans having much more difficult time surviving, should have it's own level of horror for sure, humanoids would be crazy lol looks like a genespliced raptor-human combo on the V1

[lethal moat]

Alrighty, so

[spare halo]

V2 just looks zombie-ish

I haven't looked into the lore much but very curious xD

[lethal moat]

Gen 2 are the “normal” humans, gun spawns and ammo will be rare, gameplay has been compared to dayz with dinos

Gen 1 are both the humanoids that you’ve seen (there are likely many more) and they are created differently to do different things to protect AE in case someone were to go after them, I like to compare them to attack/guard dogs

[lethal moat]

Here’s the basics, there’s also a lore server and a podcast if you’re interested https://docs.google.com/document/d/1J3FnAzKdtmlIYzTfgSlevTgGLcn8h-Zaxlqn3WEicVw/edit

whoever is making the podcast i hope they are droping them into the #videos-and-streams

[lethal moat]

We usually

[steep jackal]

Me Still waiting this Dino reavel

I am going die before

[haughty tundra]

What is tartarus?

[hexed forge]

Theorized to be a location where the most dangerous AE assets are contained. Workers who dont obey AE's rules/polciies get sent there to work there OR be test subjects.

Personally I lean towards the employees just having to work there is a punishment theory

[haughty tundra]

In the augustus video there was a warning when opening the restricted file. Where it said your whole Lineage will be brought to tartarus. So they bring your family there too?

[hexed forge]

Perhaps, or they kill your entire lineage

[haughty tundra]

Dang

[fast forge]

There are these things in the lore known as "EIP's", and we theorize that they are potentially a form of technological immortality

So in that context "lineage" might not mean your family, but your line of downloaded brain scans

Basically they take away or prevent your immortality from working

[strange shell]

I'm so glad they finally teased my fave dino minmi

[haughty tundra]

I actually like that thought

[clear crystal]

wtf the isle lore is crazy when did all that come about?

[patent ginkgo]

over the years, through small comments or releases of info

sometimes through dedicated lore videos

[lethal moat]

Bits and pieces every now and again

[hexed forge]

Piece by piece, and then we also get major lore videos

[hexed forge]

Oooo

I like that theory, first time hearing it

[lethal moat]

I bring it up every time we talk about lineage displacement

[meager junco]

That short memory span go brrrr

[hexed forge]

[lethal moat]

Also, I did a little research into “sentient” ai

I really don’t think that the replicator would be a artificial general intelligence, because AE could do it to quickly learn how to do anything or fix any problem, the replicator seems fairly limited in it’s ability

[fast forge]

DON'T STEAL MY SIGNATURE EMOTE

[fast forge]

(i'm just kidding it's fine )

[hexed forge]

Is this channel /strictly/ for lore, or is it also "basically #general but like only the people who know what's up come here", owo?

[hexed forge]

uhhh both

[lethal moat]

We get off topic a bunch, which is part of the reason I made lorecord

[unique eagle]

But is off-topic welcome here in particular, owo? Like, if I want to talk about game balance stuff but get conversation with people who actually read posts and isn't just an echochamber, is that kewl?

[valid geyser]

I think it’s best we tryyyy to keep it to lore stuff?

[hexed forge]

Do not start gama balance conversations here

We hate balance conversations

[hexed forge]

Yes

Keep it lore themed

[unique eagle]

owo. Is there anywhere that's, uh, like #isle-discussion but more producction-focused? owo?

[hexed forge]

#general-feedback #general-feedback-discussion

[valid geyser]

Well balancing would go in #balance-feedback and #balance-feedback-discussion

[hexed forge]

Ok moderator, sorry.

[valid geyser]

[unique eagle]

Nuh, not quite that. Uh, I'm trying to, uh.. Gosh Iunno how to ask this question without sounding like a prude. <w<'

Derg appears cute and playful constantly. This is because derg has no faith in #i-d to be able to handle deeper discussion (including "if it does somehow start, it'll get derailed quickly by people who honestly can't recognize what's going on".), so derg tries to keep conversation very very simple to avoid making people angry.

Derg still wants a #general chat, but with people that derg doesn't feel like he has to walk on eggshells around emotionally. That way, derg can feel less-afraid to disagree with people, or to ask questions for curiousity's sake without people assuming that derg has an agenda or has already formulated an opinion, owo.

This channel seems to fit what derg wants, emotionally, but derg doesn't wanna break rules either.

[lethal moat]

Time for the annual theorizing if we’ll get something on December 7th

[unique eagle]

Why 7, owo?

[hexed forge]

Yeah why December 7th

[hexed forge]

OH THE DATE

[hexed forge]

But what if its Day/Month/Year

[lethal moat]

Then we’ve already missed July 12

[hexed forge]

Yep

I refuse to believe AE is an american company

[lethal moat]

https://tenor.com/view/shrug-gif-25269231

[hexed forge]

Also what if thats not even a date

[lethal moat]

Sector 12 -> Sector 7 sort of thing?

[hexed forge]

Perhaps

Maybe its a password

Unlikely that its a password/code actually

[valid geyser]

Very weak passcode

[hexed forge]

Yeah

[lethal moat]

Yeah, very short

[hexed forge]

Also what does R/D mean again?

Research and Development? Idk I used google to check

Could be Sector numbers like Rumple said

[valid geyser]

What’s that “do not permit them to enter”

What’s the them?

[hexed forge]

Has to be Humanoid

If its not I dont think someone will think of letting them in

[valid geyser]

Nah imma let in all the hyper

Just you watch

[hexed forge]

[hexed forge]

So it has to be humanoid and/or have the ability to communicate the point of a normal human understanding them.

[valid geyser]

Could it be something with mimicry as well though?

That or they’re saying like “don’t let in those gen 1 they’re for airdropping not friendship”

[hexed forge]

Mmmm

[valid geyser]

Microwave

[hexed forge]

I believe it could be gen1 honestly

[valid geyser]

The line under that also makes me think of mimicry, that “you should not hear an echo”

Would gen 1 be intelligent enough to form human speech or mimic it, I wonder

[hexed forge]

Gen1 being able to communicate in some form, very poorly.

And I wouldnt doubt if some tired human at 3 AM would think that its a real human outside.

[hexed forge]

Perhaps yes

And if they are intelligent enough to do that. I wonder if they are smart enough to take orders and understand commands.

Oh god.. why am I leaning towards @lethal moat s theory of gen1 being like dogs

[hexed forge]

What if they are trainable

[valid geyser]

Can listen, does it always? No.

[hexed forge]

Yeah exactly

[valid geyser]

Where can I get a guard gen 1

[hexed forge]

Maybe the gen1s that are in that facility, or outside ig. Arent the trained ones.

Trained Gen1s are perhaps in a different facility

[hexed forge]

I REFUSE TO BELIEVE GUARD GEN1s EXIST!

[valid geyser]

it was a GUARD DOG JOKE

[hexed forge]

https://tenor.com/view/talk-to-the-hand-donald-duckn-cartoons-donald-duck-dont-talk-to-me-donald-stoping-gif-17014073685735663562

But perhaps being able to train Gen1s a few simple commands

Attack.
Stand back.
Retreat.
etc

The attack command could just be...

"Destroy everything in your sight"

[valid geyser]

Yeah gen 1 wouldn’t necessarily have to be like dog level intelligent

You can train any animal that has a concept of a reward system

You can train a fish.

[acoustic osprey]

But this paper was from years ago...

[hexed forge]

The paper released in 2172 wdym

[hexed forge]

Exactly

You: Kill anyone in that base and get some food and entertainment in the process.

Me: Gets rid of a few rivals.

ive got a lot of questions on them

Thanks guys

anyone wanna discuss The Eyeless? (Cannibals)

[lethal moat]

Described as a sort of Gen 1.5, likely upgraded by the replicator in exchange for service from a gen 1

[hexed forge]

Perhaps that ^

[hexed forge]

Maybe instead of a mutation system for gen1s, its a sacrificial system.

Sacrifice x for y ability

Or just a simple buff

[lethal moat]

I like idea, we’ve brought it up before, it’d be cool if your model changed depending on what you got, thicker skin, barbs on your wrist, etc

[hexed forge]

Wish that was the case with the mutations for dinos

Maybe in the future, who knows.

Semi-Aquatic Gen1 Mutation:

Develops webbed feet

[lethal moat]

I hope so, that sounds fun

[fast forge]

I kinda want Gen 1 to be the mutation playable
It has extra powerful and specialized versions of mutations, so it's like you are picking a lifestyle entirely
"Hydrodynamic"? Now you are streamlined with webbed toes and hands

[hexed forge]

I want that to be the case with Dinosaurs too

[fast forge]

In that vein, I kinda wonder if the "Eyeless" have something to do with the infrared mutation

[fast forge]

I'd like some physical changes, but it would be cool with Gen 1 if they were really dramatic

[lethal moat]

I agree with tiny, dinosaurs sort of have a set niche when they start out, I want gen 1 to be uber customizable

Yea

I wonder how we'll end up seeing the more monstrous parts of lore in-game

Like just documents and lore stuff on Matriarch and Echidna? Or do you think we'll actually see them as in-game models? NPC's? Raid bosses? Gen 2 mission stuff?

Playable?

[hexed forge]

Definitely not playable

Maybe for sandbox or mod stuff

[fast forge]

tbh I want stuff like Echidna and Matriarch to be random event NPC's

[fast forge]

yeah, or if so it has to be extremely hard to get

ASSET: MATRIARCH HAS BREACHED TARTARUS CONTAINMENT

SPECIMEN IS CONSIDERED DANGEROUS AND EXTREMELY HOSTILE

SECURITY PERSONNEL: AWAIT FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS

TEST SUBJECTS: SEEK REFUGE IMMEDIATELY

[hexed forge]

Make the announcement appear as a glitch just like in legacy

When devs made announcements the screen became glitchy and there was the typewriter style effect on it. Really cool

[lethal moat]

If so I want to be there or I want one of the lore people to record it

[hexed forge]

[lethal moat]

If something like that happens and the entirety of lorecord misses it, I will be very sad

[hexed forge]

Is this an indication for me to constantly start recording my sessions in order to not get kicked down into Tartarus

[lethal moat]

Perhaps

[fast forge]

Considering we are probably a few years away from this kind of stuff, I don't think you have to hurry

[lethal moat]

I need more minions to have eyes on officials

https://tenor.com/view/monkey-toy-story3-gif-25030026

[hexed forge]

I mainly play on NA 4 and 5

And Petits Pieds, an unofficial server

But yeah, we are years away from that kind of stuff

[lethal moat]

Damn, 8 people are interested in this next podcast episode, might be a good one to sit in for

[hexed forge]

I swear I just heard a gate open and a human voice

I AM NOT

Going insane.

Im near perimeter entrance

https://tenor.com/view/williamshatner-insane-not-insane-gif-4798332

[lethal moat]

Kowalski, analysis

[hexed forge]

Ok so Im not sure about the human part, but.

I definitely heard a gate opening sound

[lethal moat]

Probably metal creaking

[hexed forge]

The "Human" sound was like a "mhe". Idk how to describe it.

And my brain is telling me that there was an echo

But thats just me being crazy probably

[hexed forge]

https://www.twitch.tv/thedondi

DOCKSS

Lorecordians please dont snitch on what im doing

[maiden sundial]

It was not an allosaurus, it was a rex.

[hexed forge]

What

Yes, the trailer was a Rex. The Dibble team was a allo

[maiden sundial]

Ah

[hexed forge]

@lethal moat I suggest you to wake up

[lethal moat]

I’m here

But I have work in 20 min

[hexed forge]

Ah shh

Alr

@acoustic osprey Your nightmare...

[lethal moat]

I got the thingy

[hexed forge]

Yeah there's soo many cars without wheels and doors

Sorry Isaac, you might have to suffer

[lethal moat]

I’ve got work, I trust you guys to fill me in later, glad to see another dev stream

[fast forge]

I might join if it weren't 6 hours before I gotta get up for work 😩

[lethal moat]

Bet, I’ll have someone in lorecord make a summary later, probably Shadow and Cera

[hexed forge]

I'm recording the entire stream

Won't post it on YT ofc, will have it for personal use

AYE GUTS entrance

[lofty swallow]

yeah I asked filipe once if it was intended to be a mystery or if it was unintentional and he said it was intended

and with allo teasers getting shown shortly after

obviously the allo for the dibble trail cam, and sub adult ish rex for the trailer

[hexed forge]

I needed some lore in the stream

We got 0

[meager junco]

Was good tho, happy to see the docks in actual gameplay

[hexed forge]

The rex calls were nice too

[fast forge]

the buildings are cool

[hexed forge]

So now we basically know that there are different levels of GUTS. (Their underground levels)

I wonder, would there be giant elevators in the GUTS system that moves people from level to level. Or will they slope up/down

[meager junco]

Was really hoping don would explore the buildings a bit more, maybe next stream

[hexed forge]

Next week we pray

[meager junco]

When he went Herrera I wanted him to jump on the cranes

[hexed forge]

Mmm, its fine. We will just need patience

[meager junco]

Overall great stream, I’m sure there’s a lot in store for us ,
Also cera changes seem to be in the works

[hexed forge]

Didnt hear anything about cera

Anyways thats no lore!

https://tenor.com/view/loop-rules-rule-loopemail-gif-18923022

[meager junco]

Pff

[hexed forge]

on

oh you said pff

[meager junco]

Autocorrect stinky

[icy onyx]

Needed sewer pipe lore

[hexed forge]

hahah true

[meager junco]

Was that you asking about sewers nonstop LOL

[icy onyx]

Nah lol

[meager junco]

Someone kept mentioning pipes and sewers, figured it was you but ig not

[hexed forge]

It was rumple 100%

Sewer troodon

[meager junco]

Cryptid

[icy onyx]

Would've been neat to see how NV interacts with it but I dream

[meager junco]

I imagine very, very, very,……very dark

That nighttime was pure black

[hexed forge]

Interacts with pipes? Probably dark

[meager junco]

Was hoping to learn if stegos can destroy fences as well but didn’t get my answer

[icy onyx]

Whoever supplies AE with fences making bank

Or, really anyone supplying building materials

[meager junco]

Plot twist:AE makes them

[hexed forge]

They can

I literally told you

Or well they can ingame right now

[meager junco]

Did you try with any other Dino tjo

Tho*

[hexed forge]

Only stego broke it

[meager junco]

Plus you said it’s still that one fence , which could be bugged

[hexed forge]

They said they fixed the damage scaling on fences tho

In the patchnotes

[meager junco]

You just didn’t sound too sure last time that it was legit lol

[hexed forge]

Ye I thought that all fences were able to be broken with that patch.. appearently not

Gimme the breakable fences

[meager junco]

Agreed

I mean, gimme the boy who’s gonna destroy them with it too

[meager junco]

Cama doesn’t attack, just tramples fences

[hexed forge]

nuh uh, Shirley < Cerato lore

Gimme some cerato lore before Shirley

[meager junco]

You did you nerd

The sheet , that’s lore!

[meager junco]

https://tenor.com/view/jurassic-park-t-rex-dinosaur-gif-15363951

[lethal moat]

Yep

[hexed forge]

WHAT

I was joking

But it was actually you?

[meager junco]

I saw rump say “matriarch”

[lethal moat]

Ooo, we saw a more complete version of GUTS?

[hexed forge]

yep

Well its still just an entrance

[lethal moat]

Nice, I’ll have to check it out on my lunch break

[hexed forge]

But its more advanced than the rectangle shaped entrances

[hexed forge]

👍

[meager junco]

There wasn’t any GUTS tunnel near that area before was there?

[hexed forge]

Nope, its new

[lethal moat]

It was, I brought it up twice before I left

[meager junco]

Yeh was gonna say, don’t remember seeing any over there in admin mode previously

[lethal moat]

Very cool

[hexed forge]

yep

[meager junco]

Also cera, that base is still under the map correct?

Haven’t been on Shirley’s since before ht

[hexed forge]

This version, yes.

[meager junco]

Ok was wondering if maybe they used some of the buildings in that base for docks

But guess not

[hexed forge]

[lethal moat]

Might have been a marker

[hexed forge]

265

[meager junco]

Yeh I’m guessing the same now

[hexed forge]

Merc OLD and Merc

[meager junco]

Ahhhh ty

I knew I saw something really weird

[hexed forge]

Also the GUTS entrance is the only entrance to the docks, there isnt even a fence around the place

Well there is in some parts

This is like a Checkpoint- kind of?

Probably just basic security.

[lethal moat]

I’d like it to be some sort if warehouse/processing area before connecting to larger GUTS system so that processed materials can be distributed

[hexed forge]

Same

[acoustic osprey]

Yay

[hexed forge]

They are everywhere

[lethal moat]

That little building in the center does look like a guardhouse, maybe you can open that door from there?

[meager junco]

Clearance pass

[lethal moat]

https://tenor.com/view/vip-important-im-important-golden-ticket-gold-card-gif-20283080

[meager junco]

Think something like regular entrances would be clearance level 1-2?

[lethal moat]

Got to let Craig the forklift operator do his job

[hexed forge]

Likely

[meager junco]

Yeh since it would be the perfect transportation method without needing to drive on the terrain of the islands

[hexed forge]

And also

Im thinking they would use giant elevators to be able to move their vehicles from x level to y level

Or they could just slope up/down.

[meager junco]

Maybe, tho I’d assume elevators are to go very deep, aka high level clearance is needed

[lethal moat]

Switchback tunnels in GUTS could be fun, come around a blind corner

[hexed forge]

https://tenor.com/view/show-up-ignace-aleya-car-cgi-3d-object-gif-17522473

[meager junco]

I just realized, I forgot to ask if the Rex was Shirley.
I hml

[hexed forge]

https://tenor.com/view/briankik-turn-around-hedgehog-mrbond-gif-24320492

Confused by that question

[meager junco]

If the Rex at the end was Shirley

[hexed forge]

Thats just a rex call

Wdym specifically Shirley, you cant make it specific

[acoustic osprey]

The one with the tires?

[hexed forge]

#isle-lore-theories message

[acoustic osprey]

Ah yes

[meager junco]

No not the stream stinky the damn trailer

[hexed forge]

oh

[acoustic osprey]

Lol

[lethal moat]

Every time there’s a stream, it’s always nice to see lorecord get a little boost of activity

Anyways, Dockyards, do the sewers enter the ocean and can I do mission impossible gen 2 run

[hexed forge]

I can check

[hexed forge]

Ok so after rewatching the PT sequence at .5 speed.... uhh

I think it goes out into the ocean

Man lore has been pretty dead lately

[lethal moat]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/859369469482631168/1174008360723546122/Untitled_video_-_Made_with_Clipchamp.gif

[meager junco]

I mean the camera wasn’t too long ago

[hexed forge]

Felt like 2 years instead of 2 months

[lethal moat]

Vat showcase would be epic

[hexed forge]

Dondi forgot about it again

I have like 3 main lore questions to ask him, but for some reason I always forget to ask him when hes in chat

[lethal moat]

My current thought is “What initially made AE think strains were necessary”

[hexed forge]

Medicine testing,

Thats my guess

[lethal moat]

What ailment specifically

[hexed forge]

Also did anyone check if the Herrera dwellap sequence is a morse code

[kindred bobcat]

i totaly agree with what cerato said about herras dewllap a bit after 1:00 around the allo 1 call thing

and someone who knows morsecode should check that

[hexed forge]

Hypers having to do with growth.... and also being basically like cancer tbh.
Neuros related to like nervous system medicine, that effects the nervous system idk.
Tissos related to healing medicine.

[hexed forge]

Ok ima go check

https://tenor.com/view/insane-instanetoken-gif-6886246025543655845

Ok yeah in my short investigation I believe that there is no morse code.
