I have nothing to do for the next two hours, lets get to theorizing

#

Lets get back to the architecture regarding the flow of water on the island, they have large dams, presumably absolutely monstrously sized pumps for the swamps and possibly the pits to the south

#

Why was changing the environment this much necessary

#

The water access dam can be used to explain powering the island, but there’s also the dam at delta and the massive wall at perimeter’s base behind the waterfall, not even considering what the purpose of the giant pipes at swamp are, or what the large vents in the pits could be used for, are they using gateway as a testing ground for reconstruction of the climate overall rather than just testing the dinosaurs? If so, would it not make more sense to spread out testing more to reduce variables? Unless gateway is more of a proving ground than a testing facility, which could be interesting

#

We’ve only seen relatively successful tests via recovered files for gateway, no abysmal failures I would argue

#

And we know the diabloceratops we saw were at least were the 51st generation when they were injected, so there’s been significant development that we haven’t seen, either on gateway or elsewhere

Hello, I've heard things like rex will get a 'hypo' strain that will make them more powerful but more hungry. And that these might be acquired by nesting? Or perhaps entombment, not sure?

Well anyway. Can anyone tell me if herbivores will get their own strain? Getting powerful from entombment or nesting sounds great but I'd love for all species to be able to do it, even if in a different way than being hypo specifically. Like a different strain but just like. Do herbis get anything for completeing the same tasks?

and maybe omniraptors cause utahraptor had a type H strain model back in legacy

#

super old and outdated verisons of the dinos but this is a good look at the size of hypers (normal adult right on the left and a hyper rex on the right

#

from my understanding of the lore the hyper strain is pretty much a ecosystem destroyer (tho i wont pretend like i know all the lore well so take what i say with a grain of salt)

The Isle is the fodder for it's majesty

But yeah, herbis are not getting the strains yet.

but damn, do i wish for herbi strains to be maybe a bit more unique as well

#

heck, keep Neuro and Tisso
but maybe gatekeep Hypers for Carnis

#

Maybe not something as crazy as venusaur, but it feels very on-theme to have weird plant dinosaurs - we even have "photosynthetic" mutations in game

snow jasper
#

ankylosaur and moss symbiosis

#

I can imagine something like Borealpelta, with its relatively flat top body and grooves between its osteoderms getting dirt and seeds caught in there allowing plants to sustain themselves and just cling onto the dinosaur for some time.

#

Thats actually a really funny concept, imagining a prehistoric plant colonising a region after falling off of a nodosaurid's back after having already germinated

torn monolith
#

so what are the theories about the new water access buildings and stuff?

lethal moat

#

thank you, very interesting Killjoy_Think

#

I would love for herbivores to have their own strains!

But if they merge with plants does that mean omnivores and herbivores can eat them?...

I think a strain that makes them excessively spiky all over or to have extra tough skin makes sense from the predation causing them to evolve such a form. Or maybe- Since carni would have a trade off of being extra hungry, we could give Herbi strains the trade off of being extra noisy or maybe if we did mix one with a plant it would be smell-able. Honestly though if it's tissue becomes part-plant tissue I think carnivores would find it less yummy but I guess that's an adaptation

#

It would be cool if there was a strain for herbivore that made them feathered even if they realistically weren't but it also gives them really good hearing, smell and night vision BUT they get smaller and less powerful. It could give them visually bigger eyes and owl ear tufts or something to explain the improved hearing.

Almost like they might be reverting back to the bird DNA that they were constructed from, getting smaller and feathered and sensitive

We know there are feathered Gallis, somewhere, sometime...

Look, if you want me to determine if something is good enough, it’s hard.
It’s always a very hard question because it always comes down to the subjective…what you prefer, what I prefer, what we prefer, what they prefer.
And therefore, it’s hard for me to say objectively if it’s good or not.
But for me, I want to be brutally honest, as brutally honest as I can, as a person who is basically Isle-lores practically every day, almost.

I’ll tell you this: Right now, it’s probably not where it could be at. Not that Dondi didn’t put work into it, but if they changed the production pipeline of the lore to be more at the forefront… then maybe yeah.
We know, and I know, that Dondi puts a lot of effort into lore.
The problem is, despite all that effort, it’s hard to…we almost never see that effort.
So many times, Dondi’s literally talking about stuff, making stuff, producing stuff, directing stuff that relates to lore… and it actually never comes.

We’ve got a Troodon thing that happened ages ago when Errant 291 happened.
We’ve got tons of miscellaneous lore from Legacy.
We’ve got periods of time when Evrima were, you know, before and after rewrites, him talking about the story of The Isle lore back in (roughly) 2021 on Twitter, saying, “Oh, how do you guys want the story to end?” And everyone picked something heartbreakingly sad.
I can’t remember exactly what the result was called, but it was basically along the lines of “heartbreaking.”
That’s almost practically five years ago now, maybe six, when he did that Twitter post.

Dondi has rewritten, at least to what I know, books of The Isle around three times.
And when I say books, I don’t mean specifically pure novels, but to the extent of having as much information as a novel.
Dondi has also said in the past that some of his rewrites, some of his writings, could almost become a book, in terms of just how much there was.

#

I think he was specifically talking about how the way he was writing it down wasn’t effective enough for lore; it was more effective as a book.

But now we know that Dondi, last year, at the beginning of last year, did make a lore book.
Specifically a document. It’s a better timeline of summaries, of events, of dates, instead of just being a book.
It’s an actual document of everything.

In terms of stories that we have now, though, we only really have one big major story, and that’s Errant 291.
If you want to criticise the stories of The Isle, there’s really only one in terms of Evrima.
Of course, you can talk about other characters, like the Stegosaurus named SALT, or the Triceratopses, Atlas and his offspring, Duke.

#

But they’re very… well, not simple… but relatively simple. Not in a diminutive way, but more so they’re characters that do have impact, but they’re just not important enough to really say, “Oh, this is a big story, this is an amazing story.”

The Triceratops video is actually really nice.
It has some sort of Shakespearean tragedy to it, not really tragedy, but like the lifespan of a dinosaur, almost.
Then it dies, and then its kid takes up its legacy, which is really nice.

But they’re really offhand stories that aren’t really complementing the deeper lore, the deeper worldbuilding, the deeper subtextual things like EIPs, and strains, and collateral events, religious and political implications, etc etc.
But they’re nice. It’s nice to have now.
I will not say that these things are bad. They’re really nice.

But unlike Errant 291, those stories are a lot more simple lore-wise than Errant 291 is.
Errant 291 has a bit of mystery to it.
What happens to Errant 291?
Why did he have a cardiac arrest?
Who was he technically?
He has an employee badge, but was he a Gen 2?
Was he an actual normal human?
Did he work for somebody?
Was he under the replicator?

These are a bit simpler questions than deeper lore questions, but they’re still questions that are very critical, and I do believe they are… not very important… but questions you should have for a one-time character that relates to lore.
Maybe not the bigger questions, but they are still very critical questions.

And we’re yet to have any more of those.
We were going to get a Troodon one, but as I said before, we never got it.

**So, TL;DR: **
I don’t think we’re there yet. We have the foundation, but if you can’t get clingy enough to The Isle lore, you’re not going to enjoy it right now.

#

That’s as brutally honest as I can be.

And I know Dondi wants people to love lore, and I love lore, and I will spread lore as much as I want to and as much as I can.
But brutally honest, it’s a bit hard right now.
Not to say that we aren’t getting lore because we have been getting lore.
It is just very slow, but if you want lore just for the sense of having content coming into your mouth, we have stuff. We have some stuff.
It is slow, but we have some stuff.

But if you want lore that makes you think critically, deeply, and has some sort of beautiful story, some sort of story that Dondi enjoys, that we all will enjoy… then not yet.
We’re not there yet.
Of course, that’s assuming that we know what Dondi wants for it.
Maybe Dondi just wants a simple story.
But I don’t think he would have done that Twitter poll if he wanted a simple story.

So, we’ll see.

INTRUDER's video to be specific.

What I find to be interesting is that it looks to use the old skull shape from Legacy.

#

But I could be wrong.

#

Comparison.

#

The jaw especially strikes me as straying from the current model. It has a much more pronounced curve, just like the legacy one.

#

The jaw in the glance sheet looks to stick out more as well, which would in theory prevent the weird overbite Rex's Adult model has right now.

@dusk pier hello Gator

#

So do you like my theory?

lethal moat
#

The replicator makes dinosaurs, likely gen 1 and potentially gen 2 as well, and interacts with EIPs and potentially other parts of AE’s operations, there’s still a lot we don’t know

dusk pier
#

EIP?

dusk pier
lethal moat
# dusk pier EIP?

Embryo Intelligence Profile, human consciousness digitized and potentially moved into other bodies (like the dinosaurs)

dusk pier
slate pewter
# dusk pier post it here

Its a theoretical thought experience.
Irl the main barrier infront of our current bio engineering process is that we cannot clone reptiles.
And cloning then would be the only breakthrough ways to make them similar to dinosaurs.

We are not able currently to replicate the inner workings of an ovary.
Right now that's science fiction.

So I think the Replicator is that an artificial ovary.

#

EIPs in my theory are a digital ghost evoking

slate pewter
#

A ghost

lethal moat
slate pewter
#

Something that they experienced to try digitising human consciousness

lethal moat
slate pewter
#

But they only manage to create an EIP which remotely poses some traits of the original person but in a completely different body all those memories are pretty useless

#

Instincts themselves would suppress any spark of an EIP

#

So its a cool thing but I don't think it adds much to the lore.

lethal moat

#

well if you consider player experince and skills you could say that alot of data is lost seeing as how each player could be new template or old and all that like lore perspective is like how does that player know where to go in game is EIP out lore youtube

slate pewter
#

Because as a Dilo I experience a different consciousness and I would be driven by my instincts and scent.

#

Consciousness for me as a Dilo would be what I see what I smell what I know

After the fifteenth cycle their stories compiled into an archive they handed down through the generations. As their mental plateau deteriorated advanced cognitive functions, only the most basic and violent ideologies remained.

but also about the voice talking to us in some/all/most of olympus tranmisster

idk if this helps at all but my interpretation of this particular tweet is that "you see an entire world through a keyhole" might refer to living a life as only one species, whether that be human or otherwise. Then "through a simple moment" might mean 1 single life. Idk who this speaker is, but I cant help but wonder if they somehow span multiple lifetimes and species, and retain memory between them. Theyre self aware of whatevers going on on the island

as easy as it is to just place a glance sheet at LAB IX and call it a day

icy onyx
#

i has a theory

#

that Hypos.Nueros,and Tissos are made genetically by hoomen

#

and that Magnas are just a rare occuranse in nature

#

since square cube law is a thing

#

Magna rex and others are only limited to a certain size

#

and because they walk on 2 legs they have to stay at the size they are

sharp frigate
#

Square cube law would still crush Magna Rex and the Hypos

#

So no

icy onyx
#

yeah

#

that was the problem

#

video game logic

main prairie
#

using square cube law on hypos 🤔

astral summit
#

Hm

icy onyx
#

Its proberley nothing.

icy onyx
#

Well, don't write it off just yet. we don't know who 'we' is. We just have theories.

#

If I were to properly guess what it will be. It will be human beings sending trasnmissions that reveal a suprise through a fuzzy clip or photo.

#

Or a photo of some humans trapped on the island attacked by strains

#

Probably. i did get a screen the other day that said plain as day on it in big bold letters :

PLEASE STAND BY

#

I could kick myself for not screencapping it though.

#

Sounds like a rescue mission.

#

could be. Maybe the mercs are stranded and the tribals are hostile towards them.

#

Who knows!

#

I think I know what it will be!

#

Barney reveal.

#

Mercs could just be expendable assets to AE.

#

And maybe they're sending out an S.O.S. to whoever will respond.

#

shivers the purple of death.

#

I'm sure the isle is meant to be a highly classified place and it could be why their mercs are expendable.

#

Once you touch down on the isle, there's no coming back after a mission complete. You too, will now have to adapt to survive or become someone elses' next meal. Again, all just theories. I'm probably just talking out of my ass at this point.

#

😂

#

Its pretty cliche got to be honest.

#

Most films and games always have to have something classfied.

icy onyx
#

Yeah, and dondi isn't known to pull cliches.

#

Also, huge thanks to maple for having the screencap I was mentioning.

#

I only saw that one day though.

#

Have not seen it since.

#

The whole lore of the Isle is pretty generic and cliche to me.

lucid ermine
#

I saw it last Tuesday after the end of all the normal images

icy onyx
#

Same.

#

And that was the only day I saw it, too.

#

After the next couple of updates, I think it was removed.

#

Was meant to be a teaser, I suppose.

#

I wonder if the cannibals were meant to be used as sanitation removal of surviving mercs so the truth never gets out.

#

Would make sense to a degree. Maybe.

#

For some reason they want mutants.

#

Instead of shooting them or put them in jail

#

I'm down for it. It really gives the game a wide range of variety so one is ever bored.

#

However the game isn't that yet.

#

It'll get there one day. Frankly, I'm just looking forward to the new giga and rex model. I'm eager to see if their new models come with some nice stat changes later down the road, if not immediately.

#

Not only im looking forward to the new Giga model, I am also looking forward to the major improvement on the new default skins.

#

Agreed. I love the updated amber skin for the new giga.

#

And love even more how that carries over to the hypo giga appearance.

rustic knoll
#

I do like these theories you have

icy onyx
#

Though, I am curious, is the rex the only one that's getting a magna form to bridge it from rex to hypo?

#

Oh, thank you, Reisyn!

#

Magna gigus and spinus sounds about as terrifying as the neuro spino.

#

Why not just make a strain that eats the planet in a whole?

#

Well then we'd all be doomed.

#

If Dondi wants to be this overkill with his creatures, lol.

#

Well, I'm sure there's ways to combat these strains.

#

For all we know, they could be powerful, but have frail bodies.

#

Or could be strictly nocturnal. The neuro strain and the cannibals look like they have to potential to be strictly nocturnal.

#

Like, they would give you a real reason to fear the dark.

#

They have to make us fear the dark.

#

Oh wow!!!!

#

LOOK!!!

#

?

#

There's a skull or a face in the AE logog in the background!

#

At the middle top.

#

There's a face there.

rustic knoll

draw a line for it

icy onyx
#

Okay!

i see nothing

just a red circle

#

Its inside the circle.

i know but i dont see this ''face''

#

Neither

icy onyx
#

It looks liek a sideview of a face.

#

Lemme see something a sec.

rustic knoll
#

Can you draw an outline around it?

#

not a circle

icy onyx
#

I can try but my tablet is getting up there in years.

#

Even if theres a skull it doesn't really say anything.

#

Bear with me, I don't draw much these days.

#

But that is what I see.

#

But yeah, maybe it is nothing.

plush garnet
#

LOL

#

could be nothing but a few things come to mind, it kinda looks like it has a stego or theri face but also looks like its just static if im honest

#

Nah, you're probably right and I think I'm just over-thinking the isle with my wild theories.

#

theres nothing .

nah there was some shitposting thats been deleted

Thinking about it. If the Magna is meant to be the Hypo but a little weaker and able to actually live until death. Wouldn't that be how it's become the "perfect organism" at least as far at T.rex has been concerned lore wise.

icy onyx
#

Oooooh, okay. Thanks for clearing that up, TootToot.

Well since this is AE-001 releated if you type travel AE-001 you spawn into the map

Then Allfather was an attempt, doesn't mean it is the true perfect organism. Realistically, that honor should be going to the Matriarch, for being ultra adaptable...

We don't even know if thats still planned AFAIK

Hmm

#

Matriarch

#

I havent been following the lore if the isle can somone fill me in please?

muted steppe
#

Basically a creature that starts off around the size of a Compsognathus, but has the potential to grow as large (or larger) than a Puertasaurus.
Aside from that, being nearly impossible to unlock, and what was mentioned during that console stream, we know nothing about it.

dawn vine

hypo collosus

open compass
#

What about it?

dawn vine
#

whatever bhaltair said whats the creature

open compass
#

The Matriarch?

#

It's not the same thing

dawn vine
#

i hope its not a dinosaur like creature

muted steppe
#

Matriarch =/= Hyperendocrin Colossus

#

they're separate creatures.

dawn vine
#

if collosus is playable i would like that

muted steppe
#

And we already have concept art of the latter. Still have no idea what Matriarch would even look like.

dawn vine
#

we need playable non dinosaurians

open compass
#

I don't think the H-Colossus is coming soon

dawn vine
#

king kong

#

collosus is a fish king kong

open compass
#

Do we know what size the Colossus will be?

#

I've seen the Tapwing art of it, around puerta size, but it seems like it would be bigger

dawn vine
#

gigantopithecus sized

#

or allo

open compass
#

I thought I had heard something about carrying puertas

#

Might be wrong

dawn vine
#

tapwing does guessing art

#

its not like the devs tell him or her this will be this way

#

he guesses but does amazing job

open compass
#

I understand that

dawn vine
#

so im guessing it would be an ocean dweller

#

and just be a threat to non swimmers who try to swim

open compass
#

Why would it have massive, beefy legs and arms then?

dawn vine
#

aka like it breathes in water and dies when it goes out slowly but rather stays on the ocean floor to swim up and catch non swimmers with beefy arms

#

but that seems too much like that spore animal that swims out and kills you when too far away

open compass
#

Not really worth talking about because we know nothing about it

dawn vine
#

true

icy onyx
#

I think cannibals will be from tribals only and you will get alerted that you are to become one and so have to blend in with the tribe without arousing suspicion until you take your true form

open compass
#

Cool mechanic, but it seems from the transmissions and what we know that the cannibals can affect all humans, not just tribals

sinful sable
#

I'm more so wondering why there are randomly Tribals on an island who can tame dinosaurs

open compass
#

It becomes even weirder because it seems like the islands are artificial, and shouldn't have an already existing native population

sinful sable
#

It feels like it's suffering the classic "I want these in so I'll make the world around them"

#

Instead of make a world then add to the world

open compass
#

Or, it's that we have absolutely no information on them and therefore can't come to any conclusions

hearty mulch
#

I think it's more there were native peoples who are now exploited by a scientific monsterfactory, but take small victories by dominating their sapient animal-shaped creations.

open compass
#

Seems like a company like AE wouldn't just let primitive natives just take their dinosaurs

hearty mulch
#

Exactly why they try, it's a rebellion. That and it's also enclosed.

#

That and AE seems a bit displaced at the moment

open compass
#

What makes you think AE is scattered

hearty mulch
#

They got breached recently

#

Or something. Point being bigger threats than your lab rats making dogs of your other lab rats

open compass
#

But if they're going to continue experimenting during the time that these threats are present, why wouldn't they just take the time to replicate something to kill the tribals?

#

Like a disease or something

sinful sable
#

Because they aren't looking for disease based bioweapons.

mighty wadi
#

Do any of you know any good realism servers to hoin

open compass
#

Not the channel to ask in

mighty wadi
#

sorry new to discord

open compass
#

Go to discussion

#

This channel's for theories

#

Anyway, if they're looking for dinosaur/genetics based weapons(or experiments, or whatever), why not create something to prevent tribals from interfering?

hearty mulch
#

Perhaps the tribal's domination and slavemaking of the dinosaurs is part of the experiment. Seeing as we are some of the tribals too.

open compass
#

Maybe AE created tribals

#

Who's to say they aren't genetically engineered?

hearty mulch
#

There ain't much to say no, seeing as -at least- the ones we'll play as will probably be replicated once they respawn and such.

open compass
#

Dondi teased that tribals will communicate in a weird way that he couldn't spoil

#

I'm putting my bet on imitating dinosaur calls

sinful sable
#

What's to say it's not just a simulation.

open compass
#

What's to say it is?

#

Other than the fact that it's a video game

hearty mulch
#

He ain't completely in the wrong, seeing as we're supposed to become full profiles and move onto another Phase. What moving onto another Phase means is anyone's guess, though

sinful sable
#

Because the entire world is fucked up on even the physics level

#

A Hyperendocrin would literally collapse into shattered bones

open compass
#

Not saying you're wrong about the simulation part

#

But the Hyperendocrins are known to have way thicker bones

sinful sable
#

Thicker bones make it more likely to collapse as a bipedal animal

open compass
#

What do you mean by collapse

#

Like fall over or break all bones

hearty mulch
#

As they stand, their bones would fracture and render them unable to stand

#

And then they'd suffocate/internally bleed as they crush themselves

sinful sable
#

It's impossible for a bipedal animal to get to much larger then T.rex

#

At least as far as physics have shown us.

#

Sauropods kinda broke physics but they are also Quadropedal with 4 giant column legs

open compass
#

How would denser bones not fix the problem of their bones breaking

sinful sable
#

Because it's making them heavier. You need to make them protect without adding too much weight .

open compass
#

If size is the problem, I would the internal heat would kill them before their legs breaking

sinful sable
#

The entire idea of the Hypos is just straight up death

#

They can't survive unless they became Sauropods

proper steppe
#

Think of the one trey the explainer video about giants

#

Dilo's point is that hypo's physically couldn't exist

open compass
#

I guess it's hard to tell if something's a simulation if it's not real in the first place

magic elbow
#

Its been theorized that some therepods had hollow bones or air sacs for them to be lighter. But body heat is still a problem with hypos

#

Like birds

proper steppe
#

Atleast, not in the form they are in game. At the same time, this is a game where a humans can spontaneously have its skull structure change, have the integument change, have the feet change, and seemingly their hands. All of this without dying, no less.

sinful sable
#

"Bipedal animals are supporting all their weight on 2 legs, so each leg is supporting 50% of their weight, and every time they lift one leg up, the other leg is supporting 100% of their weight. Quadrupedal animals are supporting their weight on 4 legs, so each leg is supporting 25% of their weight, and even during walking locamotion when they're picking two feet off the ground with each step, they still have another two feet supporting 100% of the weight. All-in-all, quadrupedal animals are more stable than bipedal ones, and thus they, on average, tend to get larger."

peak glade
#

Most dinosaurs had pneumaticized bones and air sacks for respiratory-function similar to birds from what I understand

#

It’s why they could get so big

sinful sable
#

And they allow more muscle connections

#

For a similar amount of weight they can attach more connections to the bone

peak glade
#

“Why can’t I get to 50 tons?”
-Elephants

“Holding onto too much marrow boi get with the program , lighten them bones”
-sauropods

sinful sable
#

The bones of similar size aren't even that different in weight In mammals vs birds

open compass
#

Doesn't matter in any case because an animal as active and large as a hypo would overheat and die

peak glade
#

What’s this fuss about overheating

magic elbow
#

Hypo spino could exist due to it being semi-aquatic

#

It would cool it off

#

Then again living in lakes would lead a limited supply of just fish and drinking dinosaurs and it constantly needs food so maybe not

zinc crater
#

I suppose, but would it be possible for them to evolve the, um, rather... unique jaws they have?

nimble cape
#

Anything is possible

#

If the conditions were right then it wouldn't be impossible for an animal to grow jaws like a hypo spino

#

It's sort of like a snake and how it can just open it's mouth wide to swallow things

#

Except it's a split jaw

narrow quarry
#

Hypo Knucklesaurus?

nimble cape
#

yes

dull falcon
#

alrighty bois i watched anthomnia’s most recent video and i think that the reveal is going to have something to do with tribals. this should be taken with a grain of salt because nothing he has said can be confirmed but the things he was saying made it sound like tribals. he said

  1. “something else can use human animations”
  2. “this has never been done before”
  3. “people are either going to love them or hate them.”
  4. Well obviously humans can use human animations, and tribals are humans
  5. Maybe they’re adding in some things so the tribals can craft and use their weapons, that hasn’t been done in the Isle yet.
  6. When talking about dinosaurs and strains, they have always been referred to as singular, like saying THE hypo rex or THE dilophosaurus. if it was a new dinosaur, he would have said “people are either going to love IT or hate IT.” humans have always been plural. Also, people might not like being “tamed” by the tribals or might not like what they bring to the game in general. The tribals are also supposed to be naked so understandably some people are gonna hate that lol
#

keep in mind i have no solid real evidence whatsoever so please take it with a grain of salt

icy onyx
#

ok tribals imitating dinosaur sounds would be amazing

nimble cape
#

Cut out a dinosaur's windpipe and use it to create sounds

#

that would be dope

river marsh
#

It'll honestly be very interesting to see what Dynamics tribals will have with their mounts. Taking out the friends allowing friends to tame them, the dino obviously will not want to be restrained as that potentially nakes them easier prey if, say, the tribal doesn't notice a pred but the animal does and can't flee. However if the tribal is observant they can potentially get the dinosaurs trust and both nay even benefit from it

#

So ideally you'd escape a tribal that is incompetent, but perhaps stick with a tribal that provides protection

#

Like a galli running and allowing their tribal to kill Utah's that had been stalking the Maia herd the tribal had been trending to like a shepherd

viscid saddle
#

I'm not saying this to anyone in particular, but please try and separate gameplay from lore with these discussions, as one of them belongs in #401464048610312195 and one of them belongs here.

dull falcon
#

HAHAHA you guys i was right about the tribals!

#

also i really want to point out that there are still some transmissions that are unsolved! they’re not on the discord anymore so please check my website if you want to try to solve them.

open compass
#

Do you think the whole, "We can hear you." was somehow about tribals?

bronze pike
#

@river marsh interesting idea, been thinking of something similar for my semi-realism server :). though i'll probably just go utah 90% of the time and pounce humans merc or tribals when utahs can pounce them lol

rustic shell
#

^^

dull falcon
#

I think the “we can hear you” indicated that we successfully got the “signal reach”

open compass
#

So, what do we say to them then?

#

We come in peace?

rustic shell
#

We say "Live long and prosper."

magic elbow
#

Can we communicate to it? Like if someone tagged them and tried to talk to it since it can hear us now.

verbal patrol
#

hey, i found out something but idk if it means anything. i may be super late to it as well. i found a command consol on The Isle, and ive been trying to use to use the login button. has anyone else tried it... or am i the 1st to find it, or am i just late to the party on it lol

marsh nacelle
#

@verbal patrol
Your the not the first and none have gotten into it.

#

So looking over the unsolved items you have on your site.
I looked at the "7 7 7 7 7 7 7"
The number seven English meaning is Completeness / aspects of things well done.
Chinese meaning - togetherness / cheat / Start / Rise

By going with the English meaning, is the 35°C a complete temperature. Since it would be around 95°F.
Or
For the Chinese meaning
Is it to be calling it a start or rise of it?
Since Cheat and Togetherness doesn't seem to corrilate in my opinion.
Yet with the Number 7 it is considered a Lucky/unlucky number.
@dull falcon

kindred stirrup
#

7 can be used as a cussword in chinese when written twice

hearty mulch
#

I'd hate to be 77 then

dull falcon
#

Storyteller, you might be on the right track. Keep trying and hopefully we’ll get it!

sounds good, I'll keep looking into it. The temp part is the thing that is confusing. since it is repeated about four to five lines.

THE FIRST PROFILE TO REACH THE NEXT PHASE SHALL CHOOSE REPLICATION. REPLICATION IS THE COUNTER-BALANCE TO FORCE EVOLUTION OF A PROFILE.
PROFILES WILL ADAPT AND OVERCOME THE OBSTACLES OR THEY WILL REMAIN OBSOLETE.

IN YOUR NEXT PHASE, POSEIDON WILL RISE FROM THE DEPTHS AND CONSUME THE WORLD.

IN YOUR FINAL PHASE, HADES WILL RISE FROM THE UNDERWORLD AND PHANTOMS WILL FILL THE SKY.

Hmm

#

Whats this all about

#

Mmm Greek mythology, is this a metaphor for something?

#

This sounds like it's alluding to tsunamis and volcanos exploding

#

But i could be wrong

proper steppe
#

This was from a while ago

meager monolith
#

oh it was

#

nvm then

dull falcon
#

totally forgot to look into this after the whole “login” thing was revealed. so khorne chose to replicate the magnatyrannus. this next phase, which is probably what happens once someone cracks the login thing, will have to do with poseidon “rising from the depths and consuming the world”

proper steppe
#

My assumption is Matriarch, since I remember talk about Matriarch going from island to island

#

Or some other aquatic

dull falcon
#

yeah i was thinking that too. i would think “poseidon” wouldn’t just be any old aquatic creature, since the last reveal was a whole new strain. this would have to be something big, like the matriarch or another strain.

#

just throwing this out there, it could also be some sort of weapon or facility humans could use that is/was located in the ocean

proper steppe
#

How would it rise from the depths?

open compass
#

Could be a submarine

marsh nacelle
#

Rise from the depths could be a metaphor.
as like you are at the bottom and then you rise from the depths to vanquish all.
Could be talking about the Cannibals, because we dont know where they are. they could be hidding below the isle and rise up to reign and kill everything in sight

meager monolith
#

oooo

open compass
#

I think it's safe to assume it has something to do with the literal depths of the ocean, cuz Poseiden and all.

redistribute within the observable areas of Tartarus for study.
It is not correct to call it a dinosaur, but I have not given it a name.

#

From the wording in the entry, there is either already a "complete" profile, or Khorne's profile became complete when he accessed the terminal. Either way, when another profile is completed, The Matriarch will begin study within Tartarus

dull falcon
#

wow ok

#

well now we know loosely what’s going to happen once someone accesses the terminal again, it sucks that it doesn’t really help us get in tho :/

#

i wonder if the people who got close knew they got close, or if they were just messing around and accidentally almost got in without knowing

copper kestrel
#

This is a pretty big stretch, but...

#

Could "rise from the depths," be talking about the Deinosuchus and could "Phantoms will fill the sky" be talking about Quetz?

marsh nacelle
#

Kinda wondering on the whole log in. Hmmmmm

#

Like is there something you have to do in game? Something you have to click on on the main menu in order?
Or when you click play, you go to check and see something hidden within there.

hearty mulch
#

No one's done it, so might just not be a feature that's ready yet.

#

My personal hope is that it's the lore tracker thing idea from a few months ago

barren glade
#

What about using the ingame console

#

Maybe that figures something out

nimble cape
#

That's what I'm wondering as well

#

If I knew that there was an actual goal / thing to get into that was tangible then I'm pretty sure a lot more people would have tried and possibly succeeded with the login thing

#

Maybe I'm just stupid, but I don't understand what Dondi means by someone almost getting into the terminal when I don't even see it as a tangible thing

#

Is it just based off of people deciphering some lore?

#

Also I'm guessing the two people that came close to doing it don't even know that they came close, because if they did then I would expect them to talk to the community and give them clues or something.

#

Anyway, do people know what the genetic code on the top of loading screens Is? I figured it out a while ago so I could scrounge it up, but Its not the most important thing ever

#

I believe it was Methionine

#

I don't remember what it does, though

#

Also, if you haven't noticed there are hidden words in the genetic code on the dinosaur selection screen

#

The green wall of text that scrolls over the preview of the dinosaur

hearty mulch
#

Post some of them hidden words

umbral tusk
#

Methionine is required for growth and tissue repair. But that's all I got from it.

open compass
#

Another of the obstacles with figuring out the login is figuring out if it's actually something we have to do in game or

#

If, like Khorne interacting with the console, it's outside of the game

umbral tusk
#

Khorne said he didn't do anything, it just chose him.

dull falcon
#

it makes sense that growth and tissue repair is the thing. you would need a lot of methionine to replicate things.

#

i’m assuming that getting into the terminal is a tangible thing. someone has to “hack?” in and allow new logins, but nobody has done that yet

nimble cape
#

Inb4 someone tries to get in the terminal and messes with the files, gets banned

#

@hearty mulch I'm not home atm but one of the easiest ones to spot is "Death" On the leftmost side. Another one is Apollo. There are at least 5 more, but like I said I don't really remember them. They probably arent even that important as they seem like random adjectives that have something to do with making dinosaurs / the island in general.

marsh nacelle
#

With the terminal being covered with moss and foliage. i do wonder if there is a way to clean it up a bit. because if you look close enough. there are lights hidden away and all that. i have tried messing with the recordings. with the hidden lights, and also a few other things. since if you go over the numbers and click on it. it brings up the recent update and tells you of what that update is and info.
But I dont know how to get past it all. but it is one of the major things that interest me. along with the other unsolved lore.

nimble cape
#

Maybe it's just something as simple as console commands

#

I'm not really familiar with those though, I noticed that one of them is called "Console Key" and you need to enter something as the key to use it or something.

#

I assume it's something for the devs though

marsh nacelle
#

@dull falcon
Hey would it be possible for the website, if you put the dates for all the unsolved and solved puzzles. So that we can go back to what might have correlated with said theory.

icy onyx
#

🤔

#

No

marsh nacelle
#

So their not coords?

umbral tusk
#

Nah, it's probably a year or something.

marsh nacelle
#

Why would it be a year and have spacing though? Wouldn't make sense.

#

But it could be...

#

Hmmm...

glacial moth
#

Khorne remember when we asked the console about the time

#

And it told us about

marsh nacelle
#

@glacial moth
How do you ask the console about the time?

cinder atlas
#

Keep it relevant.

glacial moth
#

Has anyone tried to pinpoint the place with that time zone

shy basin
glacial moth
#

Ok so i am gonna keep this relevant

#

Are we trying to pinpoint locations?

marsh nacelle
#

I'm trying to solve the unsolved items on the website.

umbral tusk
#

New topic: what does the twitter mean by We hear you?

shy basin
#

new twitter post?

glacial moth
#

It means that 1000 retweets were received and a new Twitter post will be coming soon.

#

I dont know let me check

#

Nope. Nothing new.

dull falcon
#

hmm actually the 1 9 9 5 makes sense as a location off the coast of africa. that position could be the location of the fictional island

marsh nacelle
#

It does, since we had one location point us into pheonix Arizona.

dull falcon
#

makes even more sense because the console said the island was “terraformed”

#

that means the island didn’t exist before, so it won’t show up on a normal map

marsh nacelle
#

That would be true

dull falcon
#

obviously the island is fictional anyways so it won’t show up on a real map but it shows that it’s not a pre-existing location

#

i wonder if that location shows up on one of the dots in the scanner on the server screen? (the radar thing)

#

does anyone have a gif of that? i’m not at home so i can’t check

umbral tusk
#

I can check in a minute

cinder atlas
#

OH. I forgot that one deal was in Phoenix. I actually moved to Arizona not too long ago. Maybe I should go have a look.

dull falcon
#

well i looked at the scanner and the location storyteller found wasn’t on the scanner :/

marsh nacelle
#

Hmmmmm....

#

If possible can you send me the tools to help with these puzzles?

open compass
#

The scanner mostly pings over land, so it's probably not detecting islands

glacial moth
#

@cinder atlas look at the renaissance statue of phoenix because it the only thing remotely close to greek mythology.

marsh nacelle
#

"7" = typed 7 times
35°C = typed 35 times

So do we do 7 × 35? If so, it equals
245

#

And if we break down the numbers into Chinese.
2 = happiness
4 = death
5 = not/without

open compass
#

Seems like a stretch to get there, but the whole "not death" thing checks out with common themes

marsh nacelle
#

yeah its a bit of a stretch and all. 7 by itself in chinese means cheat and a few other things

umbral tusk
#

Dondi did say that 7 people already figured it out so.

open compass
#

He said 7 figured out 1 9 9 5

#

Specifically "what" 1 9 9 5 was

#

Could be a specific specimen, as the MagnaTyrannus was teased with the storehouse 1443

umbral tusk
#

oh shit yeah i forgot about that

#

so maybe it is a specific specimen

open compass
#

Don't know why it would be the only thing transmitted in that message though

#

Seems like they would say something else with it

umbral tusk
#

it was the number 37 with it, right?

#

Well, 37 C is the average temperature for humans, so that might have been teasing humans since the transmission was awhile ago?

open compass
#

No it was a day after the sevens and 35s

umbral tusk
#

Oh.

#

Whoops lol.

open compass
#

Connection was closed directly after

shy jay
#

If y’all can check out the ruins

#

In official maps

#

Apparently there’s secrets in there

#

According to the official website

icy onyx
#

Website or wiki?

open compass
#

What official map? AE-001?

#

Also ^

shy jay
#

website

#

i think V2

#

if you log onto the actual game and go to that thin

#

link

#

@open compass @icy onyx

open compass
#

I'm just getting a "This Domain has expired" after clicking the official website button

shy jay
#

Yeah no that was about 2-3 week ago

#

Forgot about that sorry 😓

orchid nimbus
#

The chinese "help us" was repeated 120 times
I think that "120 7 35" could be something, no cloue of what if it is even a thing

marsh nacelle
#

Hmmm. Could be

main ice
#

maybe coordinates?

orchid nimbus
#

If they're coordinates, they should work if I just put them on google maps I suppose

drifting juniper
#

if you enter it as coordinates (120°7'35"): it takes you to what i assume is farmland in Burkina Faso africa, a place that shares borders with ghana, niger, mali, togo, benin, and Cote d'lvoire. so i seriously doubt they are coordinates

#

well at least not coordinates for something related to the mysteries at hand

shy jay
#

What about 7 35 120v

#

?*

drifting juniper
#

invalid coordinates.
the only other combo that works is 35 7 120. and it takes you to a building between 2 elementary schools

shy jay
#

O

nimble cape
#

Is it possible that the Console Key command has something to do with asking the console things or unlocking the terminal?

#

Or is that something for devs to use?

magic elbow
#

Maybe if we get another console stream we can ask it how to get into the terminal

#

last time I checked, we never had the Inferno 1k signal to 1k retweets back in the July madness, now unless I'm blind the tweet has been deleted, anyone have any info on this?

proper steppe
#

Nothing happened because we failed to get to 1000 retweets

#

And if something did happen, it happened quietly

proven moss
#

It didn't fail

#

we got 1000 retweets and 1000 likes

#

they said they'd reveal something soon

#

which was like two weeks ago lol

proper steppe
#

I thought he was talking about an older one, not the one recently

humble plume
#

exactly

#

but now the tweet is gone

#

unless someone else can find it

orchid nimbus
#

Wasn't that the reveal of the Magnatyrannus?

humble plume
#

I was gunna see if I could get Anth to bump it because its most likely a very important part of the puzzle

#

and no

#

because we never got it to 1k

#

so whatever reveal it was is a mystery

proper steppe
#

No, it was the second one we were to retweet up, we only got to about 700 something, and we failed. Whatever it was supposed to reveal was done quietly, or it was gone.

humble plume
#

I bet this is where we have been going wrong all this time

#

you cant build ideas when you dont have all the crucial info

open compass
#

Do you remember when the tweet was made?

cinder atlas
#

Boop.

#

Back to legit theories.

untold siren
#

thanks lul

icy onyx
#

👌

bronze pike
#

guys we hit the 1k needed but as anth mentioned in a video the announcement is delayed due to the discord going down and has been postponed

magic elbow
#

Yes we know

open compass
#

Wasn't the reveal just "We hear you." ?

icy onyx
#

No

#

Because the discord was down and dondi couldn't really do anything with the transmission, he was letting everyone know there is still a plan

#

or that's my guess

dire echo
#

Yeah, pretty sure it was that

orchid nimbus
#

Gotta wait
keeps wiggling nervously on the seat

shy basin
#

Or it will continue on the new map itself

dull falcon
#

guys, keep in mind that hypos are coming soon...

#

once ae-001 replaces region 2 we gotta figure out how to become one, even if you can play as one

shy basin
#

Mind you it says return to the game not the players

sweet zephyr
#

I find it strange that dondi would mention that details with your meaning in mind toot.

#

detail*

quasi tree
#

I screencapped that and was watching the stream ages ago

#

Preeetty sure he meant return to the game as in you can play them. But. Its not gonna be sit there and get a billion prog points like it was last time

icy onyx
#

^

open compass
#

With all the POIs in the new map, I'm gonna guess it has something to do with those

pulsar knot
#

Yeah, Dondi said the first few people to get hypo wouldnt know how they did it. Hes gonna make it extremely complicated to prevent people from bumrushing it

#

Same with cannibros

eternal tide
#

Wouldn’t that mean that

#

If ae 001 is coming with hypo spino and hypo giga
