It’s something we can debate on, I’ll take it
explain? what does that mean? please
It's to make us forget the shipping stuff 
"hey don, is X theory good"
-Don sends gif
"Oh that means yes!!"
then we find out
wait... no?
Sir why are you in here!! Go back to the SteamDB insanity in #isle-discussion!!! 
tbh zombie qualities fit my idea of a tisso better than neuro or hyper
It’s not a yes, it’s a “lets talk about this more”
Lol
(we all took it as a yes)
ah
Tisso is the best strain no debate
Indeed
The augustus thing?
yes
nononono!!
i was gonna say how can you say something is the best without knowing it
But then again.
Here we are with lore.
Here we go again
dondi drop some tisso concept art and my life is yours 🙏
Healing is all I need
The only thing we know about Tisso so far is that The Matriarch is the byproduct of Tisso and Tisso can regenerate lost limbs and body parts.
Correct?
yes
Ok maybe the ht is today
Yahoo
i hope them being small guys turns out to true and not just be fannon
I hope it isn't true ngl
let me be a meek little dude that's a pain to kill
let me be speedy and small and a rat amen
all those within lorecord
please vote
I just realized what you meant.
Them being small could be a weakness.
What is the quote even going to lead us to.
Tissoplastic.. Hand...how the heck do they connect. 
More discussion on zombie tisso
more so
What does Dondi mean
Do you not know what the monkey's paw implies?
we can still have a discussion on it.
But Don's quote does not really have any context behind it
No.
Because you can never know what he means when he sends a gif.
and I doubt Don is going to reply any time soon (in the next month) about it 
There are multiple times where Don sent a gif and it just meant nothing lorewise
This one seems more obvious than others
We get our zombie tissos, but they are a curse not a boon
uh oh
Or he is just posting for fun (doubt)
Augustus reply flashback..
Amazing.

the end 
not as bad as the john cake one ...
it's a double troll today
it got me so bad last night when I was on my phone lol
They announced and Don sent that 
thanks
No problem
at least it's midday !
The invisible hair

Its almost midnight!!
Man.
I have a few hours before bed
Isle.
Timezones dont exist, its a thing that AE made up!!
Best John cake meme so far... or should I say.. Johnpool..
don't worry
i'm leaving in an hour
if HT is today
we can both get on it when we get back !!
Johnpool
or Cakepool?
maybe hordetest will release today in siberia
Both
i see
Whichever you like 
i feel terrible having these discussions while Don types on and off
Same
Lets discuss what zombie tisso could mean
maybe matriarch
Regeneration at a cost
Kill everysingle cell part of the Tisso to successfully kill it.
We should all shut up when we see his name pop up lmao
Why won't it die!?!
I already did
#isle-lore-theories message
#isle-lore-theories message
something that regenerates too much for its own good, it doesn't have control over its regeneration "matriarch
I thought the zombie idea was that unhealthy rotted flesh wouldn't fall off and it would stick to the body and attract scent
I like that idea
That was an idea
Someone else made it I forgot who
Yeah
I can imagine it being like
you can't just naturally grow your limbs
You need some flaws
could be it's "hyper starvation" flaw
that it may become less sane? or more weaker? (the more it regrows itself)
or it grows less of whatever it grows?
Frailer limbs
Backward aging
zombie tisso is zombie tissoplastic right?
(basically tuning into this)
Yes
thats just a zombie
It's an idea
What would make Tisso Zombie differ from any other zombie
Ah good idea
im going to be forced to decipher dondis gif messages in my nightmares
less so
"it turns into a monster"
but more so
the more it uses - the worse it would be onto itself
Continuous decaying flesh
Cells are strong enough to replicate but not to fully heal
We know strains involve medical research, I really think it has to do with donor transplants
#isle-lore-theories message
I'd say this could be such
Tisso can't stop won't stop
i want a zombie event that admins can turn on so so bad
What’s this talk of zombies?
tissoplastics
Nice
Tissoplastic
i cant stop thinking tisso's would have a bunch of failed experiments with huge ever growing flesh blobs
and dondi did a hand message thing gif... thingy
Dondi sent a total of 2 gifs
massive trollery
and everyone went crazy.
I mentioned that a zombie mod for the isle earlier today would be cool
regeneration is very good at working against you unless you program it very nicely
Would cells continually regenerating prevent death by starvation though
no
if anything you'd be more hungry
(heck, if we want to LOOK at the gif - like how I couldn't LOOK at the carrier gif literally saying carrier - we can say there are three primary fingers seen in the gif ||THUMB NO FINGER|| ... maybe we got one)
||If you want a very LOW CHANCE theory on what it could mean literally. Taking a different angle at it||
it's from the Simpsons
a organism that eats itself indefinitely rest in peace
yeah?
yes
drink some tea and go to sleep
i don't understand
not the point !!
Simpsons is classic monkey paw gif
unless you're saying simpsons is canon in the isle
simpsons collabs with everything
this is true
but it's midday !!
I think Don just typed "monkey paw" into the gif search and that's what came up
There's actually a Fortnite potential rumor with the Simpsons now
forgot you live your life upside down
why would he do that
Both disney owned
Why are you saying this here.
yeah but they own everything now
if that is the case it could mean something i guess? i was wishing for zombie tissos. really REALLY doubt it means anything tho.
there's only man who would dare give me the raspberry...
Lonestar
lmao
I think this was his way of saying "you'll get zombie tissos, but you might not like the cost" or something like that
It means tisso could have some zombie-like traits
what zombie-like traits
but
one of the keywords in the gif is "WISH"
if we want context to the gif as a searchable entity
Isnt the gif literally just a paw of a monkey. Not a zombie..
And a monkey's paw is a common euphemism for that
if we're going with anything i'd assume this is accurate.
What traits would that include that Tisso already doesn't have
Oh...monkey paw can mean wish granted with a twist right
That
Possibly
yes, exactly
Zombie Tisso Twist
Case closed 
If tisso are gonna be zombie they’re prob going to be heckin horrifying to look upon
We know tisso can regenerate limbs/organs, so my guess is that the downside is probably zombie related
idk because with a monkeys paw is it the cost or that the wish doesnt really pan out how you thought it would?
we still can't assume the context of the gif
you're right, I just phrased it awkwardly
Wish..
tiny is your pfp from something?
yes
Don probably looking at us pulling apart a Gifs file rn thinking about wtf is going on
only my own media, I made it
Lets see what he meant by Monkey Paw in this context.
it means your wish is granted
hes used the monkey paw gifs before
its very cute :]
aww ty
@green crater
ahh its a reoccurring motif?
Basically wish granted.
I’m a little disappointed that we’re discussing the gif rather than the implications 
Yes, he used the gif/statement multiple times.
i cant go full tinfoil hate this late please
Zombie makes sense for tisso I think
how do i search his horrible discord name again
After looking through some of the gifs.. it seems like it just means "Wish granted"
So true
I hope tapwing makes it super creepy looking
We're in great hands
Rotting flesh when healing is stinky, something like that
That we are!
Biiiig smile
do search
from: 601609613594460170
Probably won't be easy to sneak up on prey when you're smelly miles away
id prefer somewhat normal looking when healthy and horrid when healing
HOW DOES IT DRINK WATER I STILL WANT TO KNOW
It seems that.
Tissos will be zombie like yea.
thank youuu isaac
Maybe fast and small and stealthy makes up for it
but what makes it a zombie
Oh no wonder he made his discord @ something wild and random so he isn’t pinged lol
Rotting forever and endless hungry
Needing to kill/destroy a specific organ to actually kill the creature.
Usually it's a cursed wish, like the ones granted by a djinn/genie
Like you wish for immortality, but it turns out to be awful
Or you wish to be the smartest person alive, and everyone smarter than you dies of a virus
In that episode of the simpsons, Homer asked for a sandwich, but specified a bunch of conditions to try to keep it from being cursed, and just get a normal sandwich
It gave him a sandwich, but the turkey was a little dry
Not endless hungry
Zombies are forever hungry wym
Does this seem likely?
Thats hyper
it's also a reference
I’m talking bout zombies
Imagine if it uses it's flesh as bait somehow
They're not making two strains endlessly hungry but rotting could be
Nah probably would be too impatient
Oh I know that I was saying that to Isaac’s question of what a zombie is
I wouldn't wait for prey if I was constantly decaying and starving
Oh
mb
hunger is a hypers thing idk
Oi
oi
io
If you’re fast and sneaky, you can make up for being stinky
@robust ether
boo
mud?
Excited to see how the other hypers will look one day
ooo, maybe
Hyper Dryo 
please let hyper giga keep its horrible jaw situation
I hope every dinosaur is able to develop into a strain, since in evrima lore there is no reason preventing that.
I think the hyper concepts are gonna stay mostly the same maybe some little tweaks
My question is with this large roster how many species will get to have the ability to become a Hyperendocrin
60 dinos is a hella lot
I like the idea of one or more different ones for herbis
plants or whatever
Hyper Rex has the same somewhat concept for evrima
wait are carnivores not the only strain guys in evrima lore?
You could just.. scrap some 
One of the main reasons Dibble is 3 tons is to replace Styraco in my opinion. (Opinion!!)
I don't mind if there's one specific CARNI strain, herbi and Omni
Hypers for Carnis, of course
(Tissos and Neuros more general)
Hyper I think should be for only a few species
More strain stuff is almost always good
real we don't need 60
has there ever been confirmation that there are only 3 strains?
Yes
womp
Yep
this games modding is gonna go wild in 4 years
where
Unless you want to potentially count the Primal Carnage stuff maybe
Isnt it common sense because they scrapped the rest of the strains and basically "The Trinity" is now fully canon?
Is Primal Carnage still connected btw?
Confirmation of three strains doesn't mean there aren't more we don't know about
more like cerato is certain about something that might be up in the air
No
okay so its not confirmed its an educated guess?
yes
Ah 
never in evrima
just that Magna (O) isn't a thing
Type-O was scrapped wdym!!
what i assumed
We have 3 head honchos, matriarch, colossus and the last one skips my brain
Was magna type o
which was a way of getting Magnas in
but then was shut down
Mango
Reaper and Echidna, Matriarch wasn't part of the trinity
magna was pretty cool but it didnt have a lot going for it overall
I want plant dinosaurs 
I want more logistics stuff
Hango
math nerd strain
mango space? no mango road

aka neuro strain
wait whats the third one then?
Give me a transportation schedule
I specifically want transportation logistics
wah
Collossus
Reaper, Echidna, Collossus
I want AE logistics information
Me and Rumple just said the same thing at the same time- well the same idea 
oh so the trinity all involve humans/gen1/gen2 in some way?
Big brain
The trinity are the humanoid strains
all involve medical research
The trinity is the humanoid creature of each strain
related to*
^
didn't know they tested on people/maybe sorta people
Who said its people/humans.
My take:
Hyper - research on endocrine disorders (obviously)
Tisso - tissue grafts and organ transplants
Neuro - neurological disorders (parkinsons etc.)
That is the assumption
Mmmm
An alternative I want to propose
Thyroid diseases
yes, for hypers
Strains are meant to challenge an ecosystem, acting as either diseases or invasive species to stress test an environment
i thought the dinos werent a war thing
Neuros EMP feels more so of a weapon
How does that play into the medical research tho?
They aren't
k just checkin
Why does that make sense but also doesnt make sense. I like the idea.
Or are you talking more of an agricultural side
EMP intended to effect electric signals in the brain, not in electronics
i cant imagine its easy to accidentally make something that has an EMP ability
A Happy Accident
Or neuro could be another deterrant
i hope the neuro weather stuff is scrapped
Man just place a Skunk in a base and you probably get the same results 
Yea
I want it to be a case of mistaken identity, neuros only coming out during the rain, rather than causing the rain
i would be here for this
Possibly because the sun harms Neuros sensitive skin?
NEURO SLIME NEURO GEL NEURO GOOP
Back to this theory, yes
Gotta stay moist
most
Shhh
neuro footsteps sound like dead fish slapping the ground
It's Bioluminescence could be a factor it resides in darker environments also
did neuro spino have eyes in legacy?
I think they were all blind.
Seeking refuge in caves hopefully you don’t run into one
i want real caves so bad
Perfect Cave horror
Indeed
Hypers being a danger on the surface, Tissos being a danger in human structures/GUTS, Neuros being a danger in caves/during nights
Imagine running for your life from a Rex only to run into a neuro waiting for the storm
the sippy cup tongue i forgot
Only comes out at night/during rain
Nothing can truly hide
I hardly see people talk about the capabilities of its tail tbh
based gif
The isles version of the Resident Evil licker
Neuro needs liquid to not dry out
Mhm, very nice theory
i always assumed it was like.. a bone that was somehow jutting out of its thin skin
why did we assume tissos were spikey as a fandom? for like ages. was that a legacy thing??
Based on tapwings stuff
SoonTM,
Speaking of concepts/models..
Where is the Vat showcase that we were promised back in June 
VAT 
WE HAVENT SEEN THE VAT YET?
Nope
D:
I ate it sorry
We seen a small image of 1 vat that is like 9 pixels
istg
suspiciously cylinder shaped dinosaur

Here it is 
Someone please actually remind Don about Vats next time hes in here 
o7
Rumplestinkskin sneaking into the picture
rumpleblueskin strikes again
I figured it would be funnier to keep him in
My favorite Ben interpretation
LOVE
oh wow
does it shoot a laser tho
Gremlin creature
rumple i can ping you and not get in trouble right?
You can
Yeah
I can prove it.
@lethal moat Stinky
Servers back up nice, I hope the HT doesnt release in the next 17 hours
(I wont be at my PC for the next 17 hours)
pog
oh yeah... that would be so bad, i sure hope that doesn't happen. it would just be so horrible.
I work tomorrow also 
I have college always

wait did she make them like that because the reaper has those weird arm scythes
never made that connection
Might be part of the reasoning
They used too much starfish source dna and it gets a starfish leg back
I was just thinking about that

or it's like matriarch, eat to regenerate, but tissos only get one part, matriarch gets whole-body effects
Maybe
Forgot how bad the cgi was in that scene lmao
These ideas up here are probably worth revisiting #isle-lore-theories message
Oh shoot, that was neuro discussion, not tisso discussion, woops
We haven’t talked about giant crabs in awhile, we should do that later
lol
i don't know
i think, for the most part, our general ideas are there
we could elaborate on our theories though, i suppose
Giant crustaceans was an accident caused by a leak of some sort of chemicals into the ocean. Causing the plants and the creatures to become extremely large. yay
I’m kind of curious how aquatic facilities deal with them, and wether or not they live in the swamp
Depends on the type of crab
CRAB
surimi
Blue crab best crab 💪
I've always liked coconut crabs
That ain't a coconut crab
i wonder if anyone has lost a finger to a crab
I have
Back when I was 13, I was playing on the beach,
carrying my collection of human fingers, and while I wasn't watching, a crab stole one of them
east plains
What in tarnation
This hole been there before?
Wheremst
Uhhh, somewhere in a long walk between two of these large fences
Then yes, it was there already
Anyone find the port yet?
Were those already in aswell?
the location isnt secret, its on the east coast between north and east plains
Well crap. Not even home
Yeah I figured it wasn't. It spawned my by south plains. I went over to the swamp and I have this raptor harassing me so I haven't been over to look at it yet
Yes that isn't new
were you that cera?
Wtf is that
I'm a dryo lol
I'm home in 15 min, will try it out
Were these stairs here?
yes
Yep
Welp, I'll keep searching lol
Not seen the doors open before
yeah because a player opened them
oh really?
im gonna punt that thing across a room to where it stains the wall
NOOO
Apparently there is a thing in east plains
Indeed, gonna check there asap
I am home now.
Send me your internet plz
LOL
see you next year
Lets nest in docks and try and find out
I assume we should do raptor.
mhm
I'm on Na4 but it crashed
Anyone got coordinates or know where the port is
wah oh
I have to relog, need to delete my config. Controls broke.
What if we could find some new lore using IR light
Wtf👀
I just got disconnected
Someone posted them earlier
"-239,346.553, 466,499.879, 22,806.121 somewhere near there"
The microwave.
yo how do yall make this custom banners?
I asked a friend who made it for me
not what I meant, how do you set a custom banner
Rmb on it in steam
I have arrived
it would be really funny if you died getting down the hill
Habitation facility
Erm..
Well uh
almost funny
My leg does not want to heal and Im near starvation. No way I will starve to death before I even explore it.
I had to relog because I got a funky bug
The wall isnt big enough to contain things like rexes and other things, I think a fg raptor can jump over it,
Heck
Yeah.. Docks is a bit far from being completed..
Welp, starved to death,
Andd my game crashed..
Docks has two GUTS entrances
All the screenshots I got before my death.
They're massive
Oo ye
What are they? Fuel tanks?
Liquid storage containters of some sort, gas makes sense
Or petrol if you insist on calling it that
I would love for the devs to drop a patch right now to fix this mess, Cant properly explore the docks 
It may be a skill issue.
i heard gibbons in the ambience, thats new
theres other big fences near docks so i don't think these need to be bigger
what's going on?
huh
a patch to fix what?
The bugs
alot of performance issues and fatal errors
I see I see
and theres also some bugged places in docks but i don't think it would stop us to explore it
NA 4 crashed and vanished from existence...
@lethal moat Do you see it?
2nd time na4 crashed i guess
@neon wolf Ate it
wow not so cool.
because we said that in this channel, does that make it cannon?
yes!
perhaps
I am the matriarch
and im dean!
extra tunnels placed around the area
Call it
I should
Lmao "have you seen this dog"
wasted
divorce huh?
Is that a dibble?
my queen 👑
oh i cant see nothing
looks like it
I could get a closer up picture to that damn board....
IF ONLY I COULD GET INTO THE SERVER 
staff is now making memes about dinosaurs
im in a server, lemme look
My stream name is "Give me Na4 or give me death"
oi know where it s
Woah I never thought funny humor would be a thing in the lore of the isle
I'm curious what year that calendar displays...
I'm in queue now too
went home early 😁
Your boss: "You went home to play WHAT"
I just asked if I could go home early, didn't specify it's so I could go play a dinosaur video game 
🤫
based
Ouch
That means the server crashed probably
I'm just relogging and restarting steam, maybe there was an update that got missed after my gf logged me in
or her wifi is slow
nah I got fiber
any news about primordial btw
Is this good?
we will be waiting for those closer up pictures of that board
oh wow thats really good lmao
Thats about 250x better than mine, so yes.
Im working on it.
i get 30mbps average and 70 maximum so yes thats really good
stygimoloch
hold and use #isle-discussion
Me with 5 mbps
Oh my bad thought I was already there🦪
oh wow thats bad lol
Lots of generators
Are the domes back open?
Did not check yet, will put it on my list to check tho.
volcano cave still blocked
I think someone mentioned this thing, but there is a buggy tunnel entrance at the site of the future human base, near the docks
Found the chart, its indeed a dog.
okay but what if the dog has dino dna
(Okay but what if this is just another marketplace asset)
I was just about to say that, why would ae have divorce papers posted
Same with eviction papers lel
Almost certainly what it is
we need to put an image of ben there
oh this is finally in
the servers back?
Theres 3 new mutations, 2 of which are loreish related.
Yeah, I hoped some of the rooms would have some minor lore or something
Okay but what the hell does that mutation do.
tell me
Hmm, so basically you will be able to sense if there is something in a jungle around you..?
Dunno, pterodactalus making noise or something when you get close
This sounds cool but I'm so sure it isn't as cool as I think it is
lore?
heat seeking lore
Im choosing it
Lets see if I can see anything special now..
If the mutation is in the game... then the sources exist... Atleast I hope so..
hey cerato make a meme of planes with poorly edited texts of our names on them being shot down by fox 2's with a poorly edited text on the fox 2's saying Lore
lel
Okay but if I actually find something using this mutation I will be happy 🙂
Same
grass
Would love for Don to confirm that there is something to find using that mutation.. to start a mini lore hunt

you go in the tubes yet?
No, but I went up the cranes, it's pretty cool up there
Yea, I got lost for a solid 5 minutes. I would recommend.

awww man these cranes are really cool
There's walkways along the arms, shame you can't go inside the building up there yet
I hope the version that we have right now is an extremely outdated version, possibly Uga is currently working on the most finished version right now... who knows..
Would this be just a board from an AE employee?
Yes, but its probably a marketplace asset
Almost certainly placeholder
aw 
Anything with the mut yet?
Nope, I left Docks, heading to K15 rn.
Then I will check Perimeter
My game just crashed lel
this a lil bit of a mess lol
Getting diet as a herbivore
The hordetest? Yes, total mess filled with bugs.
The Docks? Unfinalized mess, but its ofc a WIP as stated. Hopefully Uga has a more finalized version coming up. Yea...
It’s nice though, randoms spawns was the big thing for me
And the docks are really fun to hunt in
Crap am I gonna get kicked now
The docks are really cool, I'm very happy
They are like barely random which kinda sad
all they gotta do is add more possible spawn locations
Have you tried omni?
Well something with that many spawns yeah it basically is random
However, they arent really "Random Random"
They are random based off of the spawns before. For example cera can only spawn in 2 locations... The "Randomizer" picks between Northern jungle and South plains.

pretty random when you relog and randomly respawn somewhere else 
Which I hope is changed.. its really.. ehh.

like legacy's beach random spawns
NONONOONONO NONONO
Inside the GUTS yeah
did they add mutations like hordtesting to evrima?
Ok yeah it's highlands from a diff angle nvm
For a month or so yeah
you do
cool
has anyone checked perimeter
The last I heard about it
#isle-lore-theories message
main perimeter entrance is largely unchanged
dondi wasnt lying last steam these floating crates are pretty majestic
lol
oh ye nothing
yea Im done here...
The Replicator wanted your sacrifice.
no lore is being found after this death the game just rubbing it in at this point
Diabloceratops injection site looks vastly different now
Indeed
Maybe that means lore wise the island changed
the dibble map still had south dome in it
As they update the map it's gonna get real confusing
Iirc Don plans to add mangroves
new topography, south coast looking north at perimeter
this is the new injection site
little strand of beach looks like a good landing spot for boats or something
Holy shit
This reminds me of uhh
Hold on
Reminds me of the Biosyn sanctuary in JWD lol
Its not, the small river is fresh water
hmm
some of it is fresh water
ima fly back and try again
FILTER BYPASS
DESTROY HIM
Oh hey now Rumple.., THATS A RULEBREAKK

Found it on stream this morning
Mega watts for a mega sh*
But yeah
Nothing worth mentioning at the moment in lore
We have no prompt, so no lore hunt worthy things at the moment

Indeed
You see how many cameras there are at the cranes lol
I did not notice that
There are a good amount of cameras, which makes sense
The Augustus video featured 9 cameras on H4, which looks like a relatively small compound to me. So yeah it's logical an area the size of the docks would have many cameras
Although looking back at that video, we might have only seen 9 cameras because it fits the aesthetics of the video format (they are arranged in a visually pleasing 3X3 grid) and not really be an indication of how many cameras a facility like that might have
I'm yet to reach the new buildings
Oh yeah, there may be a next 'page'
But
The overview seemed to have listed all H6 cameras
But even then
I don't believe we can take the video 100% lore accurate anyways
Even the dibble video
I'm saying there were only 9 cameras because that's what was convenient for the aesthetics of the video
Just because we're still in a big developmental period still
And things will and have changed
ye
And that H6s interior isn't even real lol
I was looking at it, seemed to be the building prefabs we have in game now
I know
Just that it doesn't seem like there would be more
Albeit, that might just be developmental hindsight
Hindsight?
Don't think that's the right word
But you get the point
Similar thing with the Gateway map in the dibble video
Being that it is now no longer official/accurate
you mean the dome?
No
Things change, I feel like details not pertenent to the story in videos can be overlooked if they're changed later
But it is comically funny, the amount of cameras at the crane, next to each other
There's also a spotlight just being covered by a stair as well lol
That's why I said this Rumple
mhm
yes, this is the point I was attempting to make here #isle-lore-theories message
We can't really have 1:1 100% visual lore representation sadly atm
That's more of an aesthetic thing than devs not being able to communicate the most accurately lore thing visually due to development
I am late to the conversation 
That is till Gateway/Evrima is, more or less, finished
I kinda also just meant, like, we can't expect don to think of every little detail
BUT
The textual/written information should still be taken as lore still of course
Nor Seiza
Yeah
Some sort of underwater thing to fix at the dam with Scuba gear could be cool
Just don’t get sucked into the turbines
hows the building in the west access area
Haven’t checked it
when I get off work...
I hope Docks are finalized before the end of the HT.
hopefully
Looks the same
the more Western ones that should have been added
which ones?
There weren't any news ones from what I saw
i swore i saw them on the Don stream. will try to look for them now
i guess they didnt get added... weird
Any crazy finds yet?
no
I tried with the IR mutation, nothing special.
nothing special or nothing at all
Nothing at all
yay
I mean, some of the lights look different.
But that mightve been my brain making it look like that.
"There has to be something... OH is that something!??!?!"
Making everything look new 
it's likely just them touching the lighting of the game lol
like when they were pink lol
It was orangey at certain times of day
given that maia might actually be next
Chances that maia being the subject of the next lore-based video may be a bit high
will say though
am curious, if it does happen, on what the topic could be
I do like how each video is trying to be (and is) unique from each other
AUGUSTUS as relatively simple AVI slideshow video Incident Report
-a nice opener into the general lore aesthetic-
then the dibble video
an interesting twist of expectations
technically, in lore, being an AVI slideshow video like AUGUSTUS
but adding in electromagnetic artefacts, through lore, creating a "chopped up" video which becomes a completely unrecognisable video
In which we access through a new lore entity/aspect "ARCHIVE(7)
I do wonder what something like a Maia video could be - if you want to make it unique and interesting
if we did a Shirley and/or Dean one
I can image something similar to AUGUSTUS
but, heck, with something like 1st Person
or maybe in Scientist VO's / given statements and/or reports
Would be fun to see some analog horror VHS tape stuff, like The Mandela Catalog. Maybe a heavily edited instructional video about Gen 1
Shirley/Dean seems more likely than maia to me
Is Shirley the rex if i remember correctly?
does this imply theres a western/northern/southern dock to be added at some point? LOREEE
Most likely yes
Potentially
But we've basically seen and heard other of anything worth of an indication
I'd definitely like to see an insight into the 'what they're used for'
Like footage of them "saying hi" to foreign entities
Yes
Cool, but i think as a you said. That maia will be on the next lore video. Maybe with rex in the background again lol
The concept map shows a bunch of docks all over the map
I doubt that
I feel like the only reason we got some shirley/Dean lore is because Don was working on the lore video at that time
I’d like a little coastal outpost with a small pier
Would be nice
yep
For sure I hope they go back through all of those tapwing landscape concepts
AUGUSTUS reaches Olympus
I love this bug hahaha
(btw not my pic, but I love this bug)
Undercover green person!! 🫵
now land a trickshot from up there
secret frogs 
I cant find the docks any idea where it is
this is my location went up along beach from south plains - -154,956.248, 575,106.382, 25,007.227
You gotta be kidding me right
dude I scavenged all around there and cant find it
Between NE and E
although every 10 minutes I have to restart my games bc of frame decay
some one said here
-239,346.553, 466,499.879, 22,806.121 I couldnt find it there
You had to go just a bit more north lol
lol
yeah it's a bit misleading by it saying Eastern Ports
but I presume that's because it's on the eastern side of the island
wrong chat
NW ridge is so barren and flat now
although it still spawns AI and herbi food
I feel like they are working on a "Nesting migration" that includes nesting grounds 
One in East plains, One in NW ridge, and one perhaps in SP.
It balances out.
yeah idk, it could also be human buildings or something? the concept map holds no answers
Doubt human buildings tbh-
wrong chat I think
i thought this was isleduscussion.
thankyou for your assistance lore folk.
You could try deleting the entire game.
10/10 advice.
yeah there are none there on the concept map, but south dome is on the concept so idk anymore
Honestly I think south dome will come back, just perhaps in a different position.
Hopefully connected to Perimeter, just like in the concept.
it's possible, or it even has swamps inside it, and just kinda fits down over whatever is there rn
Was the Delta Dam expanded?
no, the trees there were added (most of them)
The swamp extends this far now
Don't slip
wow this is depressing
Very barebones for now, probably more later
standard male living space
not enough mess
needs a mini fridge
And a small desk
WHERE IS THE TV?!
the microwave ate it :[
theres no matress without a bedframe
freshly mopped, careful slippery
can the mini fridge also be the TV? like a smart mini fridge
Meant to reply to this
this uncomforts me.
Lets talk about neuro abilities/weaknesses, we haven't discussed it in awhile
YES
I like neuro goop and all but like... going with what we know about legacy neuros why wouldn't they be a bit frail?
To me they always looked very thin and sorta flimsy.
My man is transparent and vacuum sealed
I think neuro is like a disease or a parasite in how it interacts with others, you go to bite it? You get neuro goo on you and can be controlled, it bites you? Neuro goo and you can be controlled
This would make neuro particularly effective when dealing with larger things, but if it can control multiple things at once, making an abomination of a mixpack by force would be very interesting
Turns dinosaur game into chess of who you want to loose
a long time ago was there fannon about neuros projecting an image of themselves somehow?
that's real vague of me but it was years ago so 
I like seeing Neuro as either a disease or an enslaver, potentially operating via pheremones, like ants, and the size of the neuro could be used to balance the weight of creatures it can control
even more opportunity for pve and or filling the empty gameplay loop imagine needing to complete puzzles trying to get through a lab in order to find neuro goo and turn yourself into a neuro imagine you need like full pattern recognition mutations or something
Something like that
Im holding strong that mutations and strains will fix the empty boring areas of the game
I think we need more than just that, but that will help
im thinkin it
is this gonna give me some sort of gen 1 virus
i found it on a vending machinen in port
where is this new port?? i keep ending up with east plaines spawn and dying ;lol
My phone is currently in a random spot in the middle of my house... I cant find it 
Morth of east plains
Didn't we have this same situation at Perimete
cool ill just hiut the coast, sure ill find it, after quque of course
-272,129.417, 493,563.272, 20,785.999
thank ou sir
Yeah we did, but it never hurts to try again I guess.
sooooo...
whos gonna try it first? 
I cant find my phone and my ptera is starving, Cant rn
this mans has gota do it, tony the guy
rumple should do it
my phone caught it for a second but i cant get it to pick it up again
he's expendable
I tried with that screenshot, but it didn't manage to get it
need a closer pic ig
4k it
lmao
WAIT MY ADVANCED PHOTOSHOP ABILITIES, ONE SEC
A bit pixelated zoom in
i've already tried, it leads to nothing
is it night in game atm?? maybe better shot in day
but if anybody wants to try and recreate it in some editor
thats on them
Even less pixels
does that work
It's a bit blurry because the image was taken from a bit away
I wonder if this QR code takes you somewhere, and where
It likely doesnt take you anywhere, but if it does.
Its probably to the site of wherever they bought the Vending machine asset 
bru
That's what I'm guessing
But how can we be sure that they didn't make the machine?
rumple you're a mod, scan it
Gamefiles
if it gives you a virus you can sue
That's not how that works

THE QR CODE IS A RICK ROLL
lol
serious?
50/50 it was someone trolling
Hahha
i wouldn't be surprised if there was another little lore hunt in the docks.
makes sense to have one alongside the release of the largest (somewhat finished) human base yet.
QR code is apparently a rick roll
(ruru was joking, we don't know what the actual code leads to yet)
oh
Me neither, but I don't think that's what it is
I really doubt its another lore hunt
I would believe that Don would atleast hint at it.
Just like in the dibble video description
I think it's a purchased asset
It is.
Ben is Cannon right?
Yep
good
is ben actually canon to the isle story
Yes
why, how
Why not
a tank or a tank
like they're just gonna add ben in a tank somewhere around the map later on?
yes.
iirc thats what Don said
The/a map

But the lore of Ben is probably that he/she is just a failed dilo specimen
this isn't computing, I thought he was just a meme
Ben can be both
ben should be a mutation you can get for dilo
like thats ever gonna happen
Funny, but no.
Would be fun as a mod tho
oh- okay
just completely removes half the hitbox 
insert that one gif of ben shooting a laser
the tapwing one?
i think?
it'd be hillarious if he just fell front over because of the lack of a tail
Gen 2 says "Hold my crowbar"
#isle-lore-theories message
this is what the QR code was before on Perm
Lol
they might've changed it
but I'm gonna relog and see if it has any meaning now lol
get some hard evidence lol
Wasn't a Rick roll BTW, was a joke a person made and it spread like fire for a minute
it's likely still the same as before then (nothing)
Probably
looking back at Perm
It basically matches up with the one in Docks
i'd say nothing has changed then
Yea
Still hope that Docks are finalized before the end of the HT
But it seems unlikely 

because it's basically too small to actually scan
Why would you put yourself through that
oh
