Ah, gotcha.
👌🏻
Appreciated.
Ye I've seen these and knew what they were but forgot to take screenshots and now I never see them
I'm most curious about what the 3rd image is.
Maybe I'm just blind but I can't figure it out.
Last one is the Hypo Giga picture
Where it's head is slightly turned and it's roaring. Doesn't look like a drawing but a screenshot
Did taterfi ever get around to putting the primordial in the site? Could be a useful to prevent people forgetting about it.
What if herbivores only eat blue bushes because they're the only things full of lysine?
they're full of delicous gatorade

@sharp frigate sorry for the ding but i didnt want to bother all the mods at once. lots of shitposts above.
👍 No worries, tag me whenever
I kicked 2 others for shitposting. Don't be a 3rd. @knotty lichen
Finally I get to see random off-topic stuff in this channel and it's this turd
Why people even bother?
I agree with that @shy basin
its been said, at least about the tissoplastic material, that its something pre existing that you inject into organism
as was mentioned with humans who turned into the reaper iirc
so what if there is something that can turn you back to original form
the idea that a perfect organism was being made is also mentioned multiple times so maybe they just did it for science sake
the gameplay described for mercs also suggests that contingencies have already failed
or maybe the strains are controlled after all and its a second experiment 🤔
🤔
^
Yes But cancer is an out of controll growth
that doesnt change its basic definition
the nature of the hyperendocrine mutation isnt fully known
and hypos have minds, they would prob have to be mutated in their eggs or even before
To be such successes
I mean Cancer can be cured in it's early stages, whatever the strain mutations are they are not early stage
Considering they don't have life stages that we know of, it's probably not during their early years lol
yet
( right now at least)
the store page says you rise to apex predator and mutate from there or something like that
Idk if reversing a mutation is possible, ofc we don't know what kind of technology is behind the strains and dinos, and it's a science fiction game so not like any of that holds any relevancy
how do the strains have a Cure?
when has that been said?
the surviving reaper wasnt said to be changed back. it was stored as a surviving reaper specimen
If I saw him as a utah I'd be like: "Oh, daddy'oh grant me your infinite hunter's wisdom, no price is too big1"
as he slits your throat
Reminder to check the channel rules.
Yeah, I don't think there is a "cure" for Strains.
Just things that make them weaker and eventually die off.
Dondi did say the Magna Rex wouldn't sound similar to Hypo Rex, so maybe it's not an in-between state of hypo?
@quartz grotto ^^
They could be tied somehow tho
Like a magna rex mutation went wrong = hypo rex
but I doubt
My guess is no since the strains seem to predate the dinosaurs
I feel like Magnas won't simply "mutate" from other creatures like the strains possibly could. Maybe survivors have to put a dinosaur in some old chamber and pull a captain america.
I don’t think magna is a mutation it looks as if it’s been modified like that god awful indominus
Wait. What's the Magnaraptors Species name?
Since they are using Binomials it seems for Magnas
Solus, Sol, something like that
What would vulgis mean?
after some quick google searching It seems to mean 'crowd' or 'mob', which would make sense for a raptor, but I could be wrong
So it's vulgaris?
it seems to be a variation of Vulgaris or vulgus
Imagine a pack of magna raptors oh man
such a cool picture
Where is that picture from?
Munching on Magnaraptors, yes.
TBH. Would be interesting to see Magnaraptors break into the Atrium and the Quetz just dive bombs one as the others look at it screeching "WHAT THE FUCK"-in raptor-
Back to theories though. The fact they have species and genus names implies Hybrids or like tweaks to the strain concept.
(Think how the Indominus rex is called that instead of something else)
Yeah makes sense
I mean magna raptor has heat sensing pits in its snout that doesn’t sound like a mutation to me
Some things are just not really viable to mutate. How the hell do you mutate an organism into having what is essentially thermal vision? But then again, the Neuros are supposed to basically be Houdini and shit, so maybe I'm wrong and anything is possible.
.....a heat pit is just a specilized version of your sense of feeling heat. @placid harness
That's all a snakes heat pit is. Same as a Fishes lateral line.
Making basic good senses into a very specialized organ
its almost like there are more ways to sense the world than humans have access to
and properly displaying such things visually is technically impossible so we have to compromise

It's pretty unlikely they actually SEE anything with it.
The heat just shows a outline of something. So snakes strike that.
If it's moving heat without smell they normally react defensively.
Moving heat with smell of food they react with Predation response.
(When they are blind)
God damn. Forgot that there are 12 Reaper specimens active.
I wonder if that means if Reaper becomes playable if only those 12 can be used for the playablea or if you have to place a Tissoplactics tissue inside of you.
That also gives the idea maybe you have to heavily damage a Tissoplastic, let it heal, then kill it and use the regenerative tissues to move forward.
Vampire bats also use good ol infrared sensing heat pits to detect where blood flows closest to the skin
That also implies Tisso have enhanced healing capabilities doesn't it?
it would be funny if reapers were like the ultra elite guards of a dangerously influential character
#ReaperPool
I'm more so wondering if that's part of how you get strains. Because it implies you need the tissues from them.
So it implies if a Hyper starves it's tissues can be eaten and maybe eventually it will allow you to become one? Unless it needs blood contact instead of stomach
@sinful sable Dondi did say it would have infrared vision when asked (while this may not be literal infrared vision he still said it would be an ability to do so and see heat). Further onto my point, how the hell do you "mutate" a specialized organ in an organism? Probably not mutation at all, it could be that Magnas, especially the Magnaraptor, are just hybrids.
"How the hell do you mutate a specialized organ in an organism"
Probably the same way brains first developed, evolution which is just a series of 'good' mutations, or yaknow someone made the magna raptor like that
Which would also be mutation, just directed and guided by human hand
Any change in your dna code is a mutation
The first brains were developed through god knows how many years of evolution, natural selection, and yes, mutation. It is implied that you are supposed to eventually transition into the strains and Magnas, but I doubt they are going to make the player experience millions of years of evolution.
There is a way around that, though. The strains might just be that, simulating millions of years of evolution in an extremely rapid amount of time.
i was answering your question, considering magnatyrannus is manmade magna raptor will probably also be man made which entirely throws the question of how you get said organs out of the window as the creators of our dear dinosuars obviously have vast genetic manipulation abilities, considering we have, yknow, dinosaurs walking around in modern times
furthermore you can in theory mutate any organ immediatly in one generation
the probablity is just much much closer to 0% than to 1%
I think it would be cool if they pulled a Captain America though and strapped a T-rex into a chamber, pressed some buttons, flashed some lights, and out came a Magnatyrannus.
It's weird you're acting like it's crazy a basic thermal sensor organ is unlikely.
When you have a Utahraptor covered in bony body armor with pronation in its wrists two sets of teeth in the upper jaw
A spinosaurus with a hammerhead and no skin on the sails and the consistency of Jello and a Giga with a mouth that spreads out with like 8 rows of teeth
I guess it's futile to try and explain any of this with so little base info.
Weren't Neuros at one point supposed to have like telekinesis or something?
Maybe.
Yeah. It was an idea.
That they would be able to pick up like boxes and small creatures with their mind or what ever.
Not sure if I should ask here, but could someone pass me the console interview file? I’m not sure how to word it properly.
The file that was posted in the old discord that had the information on afew of the assets ‘n whatnot. Basically where...
This came from. ‘Scuse the shitty black bars. I’m on my phone at the moment.
@regal locust Open pinned messages -> Open link -> Codes and Transmission -> use the drop-down menu -> Archive -> Console Transcription link -> Open it.
You will get a 6 pages long document, and it's basically what we got on the Console Transcription stream.
Keep in mind that some words are incorrect.
Example:
"Project All-Father: Apollo Engineering’s first attempt at creating the perfect organism.
Free of Project Tampering
Project Status: Failed "
"Free of Project tampering"
when in reality what was said was:
"Free of Genetic tampering"
Console Transcription stream was recorded and compiled in one file.
You can find said file by following the same path as before but downloading the following archive:
"AE-Transmitter Archives [First Console AI Talk]"
There you won't find any mistakes.
Got it, thank you! @grizzled dune
👍
Hey guys
The blur after "type-h" has twelve letters
Tyrannosaurus is thirteen
What name has twelve letters?
utahraptor is 10
quetzalcoatl
yis
Dondi so far has been pretty good on tapwing's art
Even used the neuro rex pic in a red loading screen
austroraptor is 12
But it would seem that there was an incident with a type-h quetzalcoatl (?) that raised the clearance to level three.
But we don't have anything on type-h austros do we?
There's art for a hyper raptor but I think it's a utah
Maybe it is an austro though
Man. There's a lot to work with here.
Doubt it
Hades makes me think of Tartarus.
Yes. And there are things in tartarus right now
we've never gotten anything about a hypo austro, but there were models for a hypo utah
There is art for a hypo quetz though, and quetz is twelve letters where utah is not
There's no official representation of Type-H Quetzal.Only fan-art
And yes,it does fit the description nicely.
According to the loading screens,Type-H Quetzal broke free and since then,Type-H Q. bio-studies were halted.
For context:
AE-BLS-005
Quetzalcoatlus
All quetzalcloatus biological assets have been deemed (blank space) by (blank space) since type-halfie (blank-space) atrium breach.All studies are to be concluded and assets neutralized until a later date.Atrium C to be repurposed for terrestrial Type-H specimens only.Do not replicate.
AE-AES -004
Type-H Speciemens
Type-H asset study has been moved from (blank space) to Atrium C.All assets show increased bone density and tissue growth.Due to the volatile effects since (blank space).Studies have been secluded to Tyrannosaurus,Giganotosaurus,Spinosaurus and utahraptor specimens.Quetzalcloatus study has been neutralized since (blank space).Code Alfie-(blank space) is still M.I.A.
Atrium C
All type-H biological asset study is to be moved to atrium C.Clearence level has summaricy elevated to level 4 since the incident involving (blank space).Director (blank space) has halted all development of any and all Type-H pterosauria studies since the loss of (blank space) personel.Atrium housing is currently being adjusted.
Neuro rex is in the intro static
isn't that tisso?
Look to the left of it
looks like it has quills
You see the second one?
There's also a picture of the inside of a rex's mouth
That's one of Tapwing's older art pieces for H-T.rex.
I think Tapwing knows things.
Nah. Just her art is in.
https://orig00.deviantart.net/f7e1/f/2016/316/c/0/untitled_by_tapwing-dao5stp.jpg
or is having an afair with a dev
But guys, you know how in the loading screens, the site name has four blank spaces?
We might be able to fill those in
The text might be removed, but we can still count the spaces and try to fill in the blanks
Like playing hangman
Let's see if we can do this.
Replace site ____ with site-I-04
Type H Quetzalcoatl
____ has noted
there are six spaces there
Who do we have named that has six letters in their name?
whyse is the neuro guy
And Carter Helped AE accquiere Phoenix's assets during Op. Inferno
"Apollo Engineering acquired Phoenix Corporation assets in Operation Inferno in
collusion with Lawrence Carter."
Dr. Chance also fits it.
Chance seems to be related with Quetzalcoatlus studies.
Along with someone named "Drive"
"Project Alphonse: The creation of the first Quetzalcoatlus.
Created by Drive, Chance."
honestly this is so hard to keep track of
If you read the website in pinned its not too hard to remember.
I just have trouble with the names of projects.
The sound of the keyboard plays only when you press the settings button in the main menu, I'm wondering if its on purpose
One thing I have noticed is that the Mercs of AE have gas masks on. Tribals have no problems breathing in this atmosphere, so...does that mean the AE Mercs are going somewhere toxic? Or...is whatever causing the strains airborne?
Whatever the case is, I am sure that the Mercs are going into territory that even the most dangerous Dinosaurs will want to steer clear of.
The atmosphere idea is pretty eerie. If your gas mask gets knocked off, you might be start growing a third eye or something.
Or maybe they are after something that has capabilities to impair your breathing.
Could be like the tv series The 100 where the grounders have adapted to the air toxicity and the sky crew have to wear gas masks after spending 100 years in space
oh yeah, loved that show, so basically radiation ?
makes sense since tribals eventually become cannibals right?
I don't think that just eating your own kind would change you into something like that
If I eat other people im not going to become 3 feet taller with no eyes and changed bones
I think the AE Mercs might retrieve things in highly volatile zones.
No. You'll just get a virus from eating brains and junk.
Besides, the Strains aren't natural. Cannibals eat Human flesh, likely have remnants of whatever causes the strains for them.
Well if other tribals have something inside of them that causes the strain then that would be possible
cough mother of cannibals. Neuro strain
Well, Humans do have radiation in them, as do all living beings. Maybe the animals have trace amounts of the Strains in them?
Only if we could have one of those interactive console streams again for more lore
Cause im guessing there could be new stuff added, and stuff we don't know yet
anyone wanna mention how the merc atm looks like hes mutating?
Hm?
let me get a screen shot of his face
look
or it may bve just a bad model
like
the neck is fine
its the face thats red with some bubonic plague spots
probably just a texture glitch. otherwise doesn't belong in #isle-lore-theories
fair enough
SO
what do we know about the neuro spino
Im pretty sure those were the teased sounds that dondi said was coming in the next patch
Neruo is in the Game atm, Devs can play as it. That I can promise saw it on Dondi's Stream.
nice mem sprinkles
I'm not lying I have a screenshot.
Based on sprinkles screenshot are we calling hypos Type-H now?
and the other ones the other types etc etc
I mean The Loading SCreens call them Type H So why not?
@icy onyx you have a screenshot of the neuro?
No. Its playable for Devs in Dev Branch for sure.
can confirm
still don't get how ppl think edge-thomnia-rex is cannon to the Isle's lore.
if anth is your only source of information
Hasn't he stated multiple times that its a mod? Mods aren't supposed to be canon.
some people are "special"
¯_(ツ)_/¯
it's natural selection
patience, all mistakes will disappear with time
people only want to believe what they want it seems.
anyone translating?
sweet
Ooo
@sharp frigate could we post some of the stream content in here instead? (Such as the clips?) For a little bit?
Since it's theory central basically.
Yeah that'd work
oohhh
But the fact that a Acro was basically eating the camera makes me wonder if some of the stuff us like Robo-Croc (little camera eggs)
Or in this case big camera dinos
Twitch is dying on me
it died on all of us
It's been awhile
I'd like to say the Neuro killed the connection to the feed but that might be a bit farfetched.
might have been intentional
There were peeps talking as well
The Neuro Spino (through Tapwings art) is shown to fuck up tech connections @placid harness
Everyone thinking that it was a type N that fucked up the stream when it was actually a Type T.
So the EMP blast is still a thing? Nice.
Twitch
I'm saying through taps content that's what it does.
If that's official or not I don't know
But punch confirmed it's a twitch problem it seems
Oh
So dead theories are dead
My theory best theory
So for Neuro they may be prone to drinking an animals insides. If this is just a Spino thing or not we don't know yet.
And Type-N seems like it will have am average size of like 50% bigger I would say? Around there.
Type-H is around 100-150% bigger I would say on average
Maybe that tongue is for slurping up the insides.
Or for cracking skulls like a Xeno.
Or. It's like how Tapwing made it. And it's used to fish/spear small animals to confirm a grip on them
wouldn't it be cool, instead of seeing how we do in the isle, Type N, or only the N-spino, sends pulses out, like in subnautica, to 'see', being blinded until it sends another pulse, and the pulses can be however long. it would be really op because it would almost negate foliage, you cant hide in bushes, because it'll see your outline, you could hear it coming, but not from where, it would really be good at scaring players
It could be like in the game Perception
Also, I suppose tht Mr croc-face is the Colossus
All playable neuros are blended refractions of the echidna bam
Dondi said the neuro spino can control weather and someone in stream mentioned that the isle could be artificial and thats how neuro spino controls the weather 🤔
aliens is a smarty boi
and don has said before during his ark stream that the idea of a "contained ecosystem (in reference to the Ark and their story elements)" was very similiar to what the isle original was going to be story wise.
ooo
Some elements/ aspects may still hold true / bled over
i really like this theory
or maybe he can just make it rain and shit because hes bery bad evil dino man
who knows
nah that sounds real dumb tbh lol
i remember khorne giving his translation in stream
"it has been a while" or something like that
thats what i remember khorne saying that it translated to
"Boops :O" adorable lol
😂 👌🏼
hey guys
have any of you seen the the news tab in the isle main menu
there is some text on the top left corner
can some one zoom in on it please
thank you
I think Thenyaw island translated, would be called Tribal island. My reason for this theory is because when you separate Thenyaw into 2 words, it becomes: The Nyaw, as in The Nyaw people. They are an ethnic group of Thailand, Cambodia and Laos. They are believed to be Nyaw indigenous headhunters who sought other tribes for bounty and sport, and it was an honor to retrieve the heads of rival tribes as a trophy.
Kinda makes sense as Dondi is still working on getting the official tribals in game, so this could possibly be a hint to they're near release? Who knows, but I found this pretty cool and thought I'd share. 😉
It's literally a meme because it's Wayneth spelled backwards.
Jiggy named it that to be cheeky.
RIP theory
when u put too much thought into something
What is the general theory of the isle
General?
there are many but the one i’ve seen most is the isle was made as a project to test experiments on
General dino theory: Bunch of vaguely biomechanical synthetically made organisms that are part of a system that connects their minds (profiles) into a cycle of death, birth, and rebirth.
That and there are at least two generations of dinosaurs. I think there is a third, but I haven't heard anything about that from anyone in a long while. We are gen 2 dinosaurs, to my knowledge.
Also the island is stocked
do you guys think quetzalcoatlus will ever be in the game ?
they're the most fascinating dinos imo
can hardly believe they actually existed
uhhh
devs can play as the quetz right now, but it has issues so it isnt public yet
and this isnt a theory, so this conversation doesnt belong in this channel
Also the model and everything exists but they need to work on the lifecycle and flying
the adult quetz needs a remodel tbh
Also saw that somewhere
Either it's a character's name or trolling
Could be a code name? As odd as that is
The brackets make me wonder if AR is the bit to keep an eye on. Maybe there will be more letters like that
Maybe its a codename for a creature that likes lasagna
or one that hates mondays
Seriously wondering if there were two transmisions
Can't see at all, reccommending screencap'
I love the snipping tool.
"It has been a while"
are you sure
?
can some one tell me how they did it
cuz i am getting weird messages
it does say it's been a while
but here is what i got
S#SBEENAWHILE#
why tho?
yeah scroll up
Oh okay, thanks
Cannibals are supposed to be something around the size of a carno, but they are definitely of human nature. @mellow ember
Yeah but tribals themselves are supposed to be a different species then mercs technically right? I mean I know what the model looks like now but I had heard tribals wouldn't look fully human
We also don't know the size of echidna or reaper, but echidna's supposedly the mother of cannibals.
I'm just saying with the sizing scale they're doing on the H strains, and the comparison of size from H to their original variation. Humans doesn't come off as becoming larger then say H rex if you go with the same sizing scale.
Why does the scale have to be consistent with humans?
One would think it would be consistant on a biological side of things if they're doing similiar scale cross species with the dinos.
We aren't sure it's similar scale though
I mean if the process is done differently from how they did the dinos for the H strain then it could make sense. but if lore wise, they use the exact same formula as they did with the dinos it doesn't stand to reason that humans would be so massive by comparison. One would also think that the dinos were being used as test subjects first and foremost to test these strains before applying them to the human so one would then have to think they'd use the same formulas.
Unless I guess they took what they did to create the H strains with the dinos, took actual DNA references from the H strains themselves and then concocted a formula for the human form to achieve what they did.
Look, we know that it's hyperendecrine because of the name. We know that echidna and reaper are human versions of their respective strains. It comes to reason that Colossus is a hyperendecrine human
Just saying that if Formula A is what they gave Rex, and Rex became H-Rex. Then took Formula A and gave it to the human, I don't see the human out massing H-Rex. But if they were to say create Formula B from H Rex and gave that to Human that would make more sense.
I have to wonder if the Collossus has any other genetic fuckery going on or if the H-strain just turns everything in a reptillian of some sort?
Are we sure the thing in announcements is even colossus?
Yeah he did it during stream.
^
And if we go off of what I just said, and the strains were first created in dinos then those dinos used to create a new formula to put into humans it would stand to reason why there would be reptillian mutation mixed in there for it.
Was just wondering since it's face changed when it moved from concept art to model.
Things tend to change a bit from their concept versions.
Honestly I'm starting to think it might not have even changed that much
The more I look at the concept atleast.
The tusks are new, at least. I don't really expect the rest of the design to be too different from the concept, 'cept maybe some belly armor.
Reminder that this is still #isle-lore-theories
Oop, sorry.
The Colossus definitely doesn't seem like its a genetic accident. It looks way too perfected.
In comparison to Echidna it definitely looks like the design is more symmetrical and less chaotic.
it would be funny if the old 'HUNGRY...' transmission was from an important figure turning into a hyper godbeast in the face of a dire situation as he deleted his own files.
@supple dome the code seems to be "It's been a while"
ah
guys
Gals
Is the neuro spino emp going to affect living beings in some way too or just tech
Emf waves do cause people and animals some hellish psychological effects if too exposed to it
but thats an electro-magnetic field. not a pulse
of course in an EMF its gonna do damage because youre exposed to it longer
whereas a pulse is pretty much an instant thing.
it will be
Fingers crossed
I mean, in terms of instinctual fear response the team fuckin nailed it
So thats all good
But neuros are supposed to be squishy and i dont want the game to release with the neuro spino being bullied by carnos
Lol
A carno bullying a neuro spino would be fairly concerning, seeing as a neuro spino is like twice the size of a regular spino
I'd imagine the EMP would do something to players, rather than just tech. Otherwise it'd be super situational
and pretty useless for such a cool ability
Thats what im sayin
I think it'd disorient a bit or relinquish player control for random spazing for a second, since electric discharges affect the brain
I mean. In the end playability wise Strains are literally just big "fuck up humans" creatures.
With the extention of Hyper being "Fuck up the ecosystem while you're at it"
i mean sure a carno could go up to neuro spino but they would be risking their insides being sucked out of them
Thats an afyer death thing
The point was to make them eat weird to make them feel more unique
Its not a combat mechanic i dont think
if that's something that can affect electric potential used by the nervous system to transfer information, it could have impacts on perceptions and stuff
you know, when dondi said weather manipulation people went "it gonna make it rain!", but if its just manipulation that means it could take the rain away and possibly make droughts, which could be its own way of unbalancing the ecosystem. just like how a type-H would just eat things to unbalance it
Oh shit
Making the water disappear sounds dangerous as fuck
I live in michigan so i have zero experience of drought personally, but i know californians
Droughts be deadly af
Considering how it's designed maybe it could also manipulate lightning. It could use it to legitimately strike things, of course the electricity itself would have have to look different so it doesn't create confusion, or maybe it could absord lightning strikes into itself to use as a means of defense/offense.
Like absorbing the energy more or less?
Basically, yeah.
Manipulate lightning?
So what you are saying is that N-Type Spino could possibly charge itself before an EMP with its summoned lightning?
Guys, he could use his muscles for that
That or maybe disperse the electricity in a different way.
believe it or not, muscles produce a good amount of electricity
I think the emp is something it could produce with out excess energy.
the problem is "how do we get the electricity to go from point A to point B?"
when you have water (see Eels) it's a good conductor
air is crap at it
I wonder if some type N is gonna have some infrasound stuff
emp is a pulse, so it just radiates out. I could see it reversing your controls for a short time. lol that'd mess people up
It needs to do something like that.
Like someone said before the emp would be obnoxiously situational if it just fucks with electronics.
Some vision jamming? you wouldn't believe what changes in your body can mess with your eyeballs
Inverse controls, muffled audio, and possibly de-saturating the screen?
since an eye is full of liquids 😉
I'd say making control less responsive would work better than inverse controls
well the brain is basically electric synapses and in dull brains, it wouldn't be "out there" to mess with your internal navigation.
if you know how the Nspino does his EMP, you can cancel out his attack by just using the opposite controls
it's too "easy" to counter tbh
it'd be one effect. if you're fleeing, it'd mess most up enough to cause havoc
affecting sight, hearing and stuff would work better
turn down game sounds and only play in vc would counter that too.
sight effects are tricky because you can't do anything that would possibly cause seizures. so nothing would be too limiting
I'd make it either paralyze or blind you whilst messing with your controls.
think of it like a fear or snare in other games. sure it's easy to adapt if you know its coming, its just part of the package of abilities. that one second you turn the wrong way is no different than a one second stun
or lowering and rising the volume randomly
Reminder this is #isle-lore-theories not "How to counter a Neuro EMP" or "What I would do"
wouldn't what I do be theory since it's not actually in yet? but agree in general, was just curious
Well, I have noticed that AE uses Mercenaries instead of military. So...they are giving people top dollar to bring something back.
Or...destroy stuff.
What they’re doing prob isn’t sanctioned by the military
It says US military on the old box assets, but they are marketplace so that means nothing
the US tends to sell it's stocks rather than take them back home because it cost hella money IIRC
so they could have bought them from the US military that way
or had a contract with them
So, like Weyland Yutani? Basically the deepest pocket controls the military...or military assets.
What if the isle was a battle royal game?
No.
That's not a theory.
DELET
Who wants to theorize on the way the combat overhaul will work? I see It being mentioned with such certainty but I've never heard what will actually be in it
Hmmm, I wonder if locational damage will be coming in with it
Means movement and hit boxes will have to be on point
Would like the ability to lunge and stagger an opponent
I can't see it on Mobile for some reason... @gilded haven hmm. Interesting..maybe it's the device -shrug-
But yay! I remembered.
👍🏼
Kinda wondering how the whole "moving Conciousness" deal will work. If it's something to do with the area or if it's like Microchips or what and has some sort of AI (which would be us as players) for some of the animals.
Alright, I just came up with this theory on the spot so its not likely to be good: So, what I think is that the dinosaurs are essentially being used as military projects. They brought back dinosaurs (similar to JP) and they made a controlled ecosystem on multiple tropical islands. This would allow the people working on the project to select the most well-equipped dinosaurs and use them in combat. For example, say one particular line of Tyrannosaurs are doing particularly well on an island. Their DNA will be harvested, cloned, and used. As for the strains, they are a separate project that used the perfected dinosaur DNA from the islands and made them even better by giving them traits like armor, EMP, and other tools. The Matriarch was designed to be the most powerful and destructive weapon in their arsenal, constantly changing depending on what environment it was exposed to (source: https://tapwing.deviantart.com/art/Triatominae-matriarch-713194933 ). And I did get conformation from a developer that these dinosaurs are indeed genetically tempered, which both strengthens my theory and adds another possible layer: These dinosaurs had a little genetic nudge in the right direction by the scientists. Think about it: The Rex's old model was feathery and relatively lightweight. So, they made it bulky and heavy. This was too bulky, however, so it was slimmed down to the current model of today. Another example: the Giganotosaurus was slim, but now it's bulkier, faster and can break bone and do massive bleed. However, take this theory with a grain of salt. I'll work on the story of the game later.
@coral bronze the Matriarch is simply very adaptable. How so is unknown.
But it's likely not changing it's entire body every 5 minutes
I meant more of releasing it into a battlefield, having it get used to the surrounding environment, and then it can be more efficient at killing
Yea I mean if you think about it
All the dinosaurs that are/may be getting strains are good at something to a huge extent
Rex= destroy everything
Spino= aquatic assault
Giga= destroy boots on the ground
Utah= hyper intelligence paired with deadly claws
Carno= speed and a strong headbutt
If Dilo and Quetz were to get strains (which i suspect they will) Dilo could track and kill targets and Quetz could take out enemy fighter jets
Fun fact: Quetz actually has a hypo strain, although the only downside is that is lost his ability to fly
really? damn
Where'd you hear that?
Hence asking for a source
You're just fine, Amara.
Hyper intelligence isn't really something that can be displayed through the game for utah
^
Hyper intelligence wouldn't be something that would be limited to Utah. It's somewhat smart, yes, but the dinosaur is only as smart as the player controlling it (and trust me, there are some MASSIVE dumbasses that play this game, myself included).
Lore wise, if anything was to possess hyper intelligence, it would be the Neuro strains. There must be some serious brain power involved to control weather or (potentially) move objects with your mind.
and they dont have eyes, so instead of seeing their environment they know their environment
So is the magma strain it’s own thing or it just a tweaked hyper strain
Not a strain.
Isnt magna just genetic perfection
Yeh
How’d u knowwww
🐠
Keep it to #isle-lore-theories fellas.
Gar it was about theories 😄
Ye I know but I don't want people to spiral off into obscenity 
The cannibals are supposed to be some kind of lab experiment gone wrong, i think. Basically, the scientists that worked on creating the hypos got exposed to the hypo dna stuff and morphed into half-dino half-person things
At least thats what they seem to be. Where else would humanoid dinos come from other than mutated humans?
They aren't anything like dinos though?
Yea they are they have bird-like feet and long claws and eyes farther away from their nose
And by bird-like i mean they have legs that bend like a bird not like a person
yeah cannibals defiantly are intertwined with strains somehow
Maybe theyre a hypo-human strain
like human experiments that went wrong in the lab
personally i think three lead scientists went to work on the isle project ,, each specializing in there own experiments for the dinosaurs.
these three strains ended up turning the three of them into the three we know now
So people turned into fully blown dinos?
Ohh i get you
yeah, the colossus , the reaper , and the mother of cannibals
I actually like the theory of experimentation being done on all the dinos that will be getting strains, THEN as a further experiment they tested on tribal people living on the islands
Which gave us the cannibals
and some of the straining went into the local population after they released the dinosaurs on the island
which are cannibals yeah
One thing ive noticed is the three hypos we have now all have the same line of heavy back plates and the cannibal doesnt. I wonder why that would be the case, assuming the theory of them being some kind of hypo-human is true
i don’t think the cannibals have the hypo strain
i don’t even think they have a specific strain
more like just .... tested and gone wrong
if you notice cannibals are very animalistic and predator like
so maybe engineering humans to become natural predators able to compete against dinosaurs in the wild specifically ??
I initially thought the cannibals were scientists or normal people that just got exposed to the chemicals they used for genetic engineering to make strains. So it was kinda like a dino x-men mutagin that turned people into the cannibal creatures
When i first saw cannibals
i can see that too
so either cannibals were made on purpose or they were an accident
i think making them on purpose is darker
biologically engineering humans into super predators able to compete with dinosaurs ??
like that’s pretty fucked and scary
Yea, and to make it even darker it would be cool if they did things like kidnap people for it or took advantage of the native people. Or even better, if the tribals had a ritual of sacrificing people to keep the cannibals away when the whole time, scientists are moving the sacrifices to labs to make more cannibals
Out of the sacrifices
i really like that idea
Ty
along the lines of what i was thinking
I cant wait to see what this game is gonna be like in a few years
same ,, really optimistic about the isle
I wonder if some type of single player campaign would ever be made or if the devs would just let the audience figure out the backstory based on clues from the map
Tru
I was just thinking about how cool a single player story would be, I mean there is so much lore in this game i think that could really be something in the distant future
i would love to have single player, im way to of a loner to be always online
Hell yeah that would be badass. When most people spot the game I don't think they realize how cool the lore is. (I know I didn't)
A singleplayer mode could also help new people get used to the controls, map, and dinosaurs.
it would be cool but i think thats very hard to do
Eh, all the pieces are going to be there
AI is probably one of the biggest obstacles to a worth while single player mode
Gentle reminder that this channel is for lore theories in particular
Sry lol
Hey guys, remember on #announcements when dondi post a teaser for Neuro Spino that said: "Paging Dr Whyse"?
Well, I have a theory about him, maybe Dr Whyse is the person in charge on the development of the Neuro strain, or even...on all of the strains
great evidence there
Yep
Well, you can get an idea by looking at fanart like Tapwing's
Or even, the loading screens
Let me reiterate that tapwing is NOT part of the dev team.
I know
She only makes good fan art that the devs sometime will take influence from.
I said, it can give you an idea
It could or it couldn't.
Even worse.
^
That's not stoping you from watching?
People clip the important parts
Anyways my interest is mostly about strains for Utah's
From what I know I think is just magna and hypo
👍
Is magna even a strain? I've never once heard of it being a strain variant for the creatures in the game, just a genetic experiment that was being toyed with.
Probably just a hybrid.
Seems right. Because we have magnaraptor not magna utah.
I personally consider it a "Strain" since the repeated term of Magna. But it's not seeming to be created in the same wags the Type-T N and H ones are
magna means great, so maybe it just means an enhanced version of a type of animal. Think genetic modification, not necessarily a strain.
Maybe they're all made in the same type of way, therefore they all fall under Type-M
I mean. So far they are showing basic strain cliches.
Similar color pallet.
Similar additions(both feel far more crocodilian in appearence IIRC)
Similar size difference to their base "species"
There's some differences but all the other strains show differences so...
well if you think about it they both have reptilian traits to them, magnaraptor has pit viper heat sensors on the snout and magnatyrannus has crocodilian osteoderms on its body so maybe thats the...strain? I don't know I think magna is a classification for a hybrid or such because neurotenic and hypoendocrine is a gene which amplifies certain things. Not sure if amplifying anything would make a tyrannosaur have osteoderms.
They're similar to strains, but i feel as if they aren't fully "strains" more of their own thing
They are referred to as "Type-M" in the loading screens, so... I don't know, maybe they are like strains, maybe not.
Magna's are same-species killers, no?
Why do you think that? @spice coyote
Magnatyrannus killed a Type-H Rex
Other then that nothing is known on their "habits"
sstv file
looks like something you'd find from the deep web
yeah it was spectogram
Did you guys know that eventually the universe will run out of materials for building stars and the univurse will become a cold dark emty space...just joking stop crying,we like to have fun here or it's always a possibility that we make a huge bomb with a black hole but that process is so complicated that l don't have the finger mussels to write it down,have you ever wounded what happened before the big bang.....was it a big bomb...Hhhhhhmmmmm,planted by other civcivilizations hoping that thit project would restore life to the univurse by eventually destroying their selfs...this is not scientifically proven but just theory by me,hope that life will not stop living
Kicked
Technically it’s a theory but not an isle theory
Its not even a theory its just someone who thinks they are smart rambling because they watched vsauce once.
One would assume that, if the one who posted nonsense was kicked, it would be wise to not carry on that line of conversation.
The conversation about it is over, pls stop bringing it up
fan-art.
Someone please change the channel description to make sure people dont come here with info from Anth videos
^ yes pls
I’ve got a theory, the scientist that let all the dinos out was anthonmia and that’s why we have the isle
And the reason he let them out is so he could have content for his channel
Absolutely flawless theory
XD
That monster!
So, guys, why do you think there's currently no confirmation for herbivore strains
Because herbivores arent meant to be strains in game
But what about lore wise
There is confirmation on herb strains
The confirmation is that there won't be any herbs strains
carnivores are easier to manipulate for violent combat situations i guess? unless the herbivore you select is already aggressive in temperment
I imagine the scientists experimenting on the animals saw it preferable to test on theropods
maybe carnivores were easier to get into a lab than the herbivores
There must have been some tests or some reason they just can't exist
Like maybe they needed too much food
They have less work to do in the long run as far as temperament goes. At that point they are just working on making it even more deadly than what natural evolution would allow
Which would have ruined the ecosystem
not really logical to conclude since most hypo herbs would be smaller than a puerta
Like sure, hypo carnivores need food, but that food can run away
In the long run maintaining carnivore strains would be more costly
assuming theyre going after super fast animals
idk if youve looked but trikes arent good at outrunning hyper theropods
they cann run but they wont get far and the mutants cover ground much quicker
I don't know for sure, but I think the strains were made by people with the intent of keeping those things for further use, but the strains got out into the island
Trikes are limited
everythings limited
Adult trikes are even rarer probably
?
They give more food
adult trikes arent rare , in game and probably wont really be ever when ai is re implemented. were also forgetting large sauropods which at least two hyper strains have been portrayed to feed upon
Anyway personally I think that hypo herbivores (or other strains) would need too much food
It would be easier to supply herbivore food than it would be to supply meat
But the plants would run out
You would be constantly eating and doing nothing else
Especially if you have the humans mixing in extra grains and the like to fortify natural supplies
Now thats fun and engaging gameplay
even though most of the hypo herbs would be smaller than sauropods on average which can manage to feed themselevs just fine unless the hypo herbs have such a high metabolism that they cant go 40 minutes without eating theres not much to suggest theyd need too much food to viably survive. as for carnivores they do need a lot of food to sustain themsleves which is why they are often portrayed going after bigger animals that will provide more sustenance for longer
With carnivore strains you at least have the hunt inbetween
Hypers have extremely high metabolisms
As they are able to regenerate themselves quickly
dont really have much interest in hypo herbs , theyre fun concepts but "meh" in practice
even hypo carnivores can be boring to some
They get boring quickly
Nothing challenges you except hunger and other hypers
Which you dont see
its fun fighting hypos as a puerta, or better yet watching the two fight
except that civil war thing in sandbox
everybody had access to hypo on v3 and all across the map you see hordes of them attacking pues and bodies lagging the universe
Eh?
Those are three of the special herb attacks
Gore is for trike, thagomizers are stego, and pachyrhino was intended to be the juggernaut
Magna herbs.
Im gonna copy n paste what i said in the art topic, the responce to weaponized hypo herbs flight responce:
o.O Put a prion into the creatures brain and code the prion to modify the grey and white matter of the brain?
It would be easy.
The behavour changes would be small, to massive.
Don't prions normally shred the tissue of the brain.
Along with that a Animal who's aggressive because of a Need to feed is easier to care for then an animal who's aggressive if it sees anything living
.. True
I would say that herb strains could be intresting if you complete objectives, or as a counter, i think (not shure) that if only carnivores develop strains, people will be less likely to play hervivores, in carnivores you have the incentive that youll become in some way better, either bigger and stronger, or smarter or faster, while in hervivores it just becomes boring whatsoever, so if thats the case why not remove playable hervivores and make all hervivores only AI?
Strains aren't something anyone is gonna be able to just walk up and grab (assumed at least(
And only a few Carnis are getting them. As of now it's literally only Rex, Spino, Giga, Carno, and Utah.
Herbivore players also don't sign up to be kamikazes as a general rule. It's a different playstyle than carnivores. Your more interested in defense than offense
Also trike may get a strain. It was voted on eons ago about juggernaut and thronebreaker or something
So...I’m unfamiliar with the strain part of The Isle. Anyone willing to tell me about them? XD
Basically there are four factions in the game: carnivore dinos, herbivore dinos, tribal humans, and mercenary humans. The mercenary humans developed strains.
Otherwise known as mutant weaponized dinos
Fancy
I can fill you in on the strains themselves to an extent, but the origins I think Moss has handled
There are four Strains.
Technically four, not sure if magna is the fourth or something else
I'm just gonna let moss handle this
Okay lmao
Hyperendocrine strains known as h-type involve making the animal in question much larger, hit harder (or do more of what its specialty is like giga will do more bleed while rex can bite through hyper armor) and become heavily plated with natural boney armor
You can see the models and animations of the h-type giga, rex, and spino on youtube quite easily
N-type strains, or neuro strains, are the soft squishy strains that have a highly specialized way of living. As it stands now only the neuro spino is even remotely finished and thus far its special skill has been rumored to be an EMP blast
You can probably ask someone in the stream chat for clips of it
The T-strain is the Tisso strain. That hasn't been touched on as much, but so far the basic concept is turning the animal into a super hunter. Not as big and hulking and ravenous as the H-type strains and no where near as odd as the N-Type, but possibly far more dangerous than either as its last known possible skill was camouflaging I believe
They were also rumored to be quite speedy in comparison to their base species
The Magnarex is not exactly a strain as far as I know, but it has been labeled as "The Father" from why I hear, leading many to believe that the Magna was the first in testing and led to the development of all other strains
Humans - the tribals at least or so I have been led to believe - will also have their own mutant paths. The most well known mutation is the Cannibal. Nasty nightmare fuel that will supposedly be able to climb trees and is quite large in comparison to a normal person
The Colossus is also some form of mutant but I am unsure exactly where its origins rest. It looks incredibly crocodilian, so it could potentially be some sort of deino strain, but it is also fairly ape like, so it could be a human strain. Then again, the most recent teaser for it was the h-type strain of the colossus, so it plausible that it is a stand alone creature as it would be odd to have a strain morph into another strain
There is not much known about the Matriarch either
Long story short, strains are cool things that give you practically god tier powers in relation to the average player creature. They will be very, very hard to achieve.
And as a final note, it has been stated several times unfortunately that herbivores won't be getting strains. However, the most recent twitter poll seems to have gotten people thinking that something like a magna version might be released for an herbivore
Oh...Well, nice to know everything in the game can kill us easily... not surprising. I had a good backgrounds with hypos and neuros, but I had no idea about tissos. I knew some about the Colossus, based on the concept pictures and the models, but not much about its background. I haven’t heard of the Matriarch.
Herbs I think should get strains. Maybe not the smaller tiers, but definitely the apexy type herbs I.E, the shant and trike. I would like to see them not just the gentle, plant eating dinosaur, but also their “dark side” and what they can become.
Thanks for all the information. I honestly didn’t know the hypos and nueros were connected to the strains. But, now I know.
I’m pretty excited about the Cannible as well!
Herbivores have had a very long and rough history so far. Initially they weren't even intended to be played. However, there is enough of a niche that herbivores are here to stay. Naturally when strains were first talked about, Dondi very clearly stated no herbivore strain ever would come to the Isle and seems to have stayed on that decision. Depending on who you ask, the reason behind why there aren't any strains vary from something that has to do with lore to basic game play issues such as the strain herbs will spend most of their time face first in a bush to combat the heightened hunger loss that comes with being a strain
Others will say that it is just general bias against herbivores
Haha, understandable. I mean, I don’t mind both ways, but I guess I am biased a little forwards a herb strain.
But your right, herbs wouldn’t be worried about killing anyone or terrorizing the whole server, but continuously looking for food
I.E, bushes
Or trees possibly
Hyper strains usually end up roughly twice the size of their base species, so I'd imagine the hyper shant would need to eat trees
Deforestation
Personally, as an herbivore main, wouldn't necessarily want a strain per say so much as something entirely unique to herbivores that will give them a much needed leg up on the predators, but still supplement their intended gameplay, which is at the moment, defend or run.
An Elder system has been rumored to be a possibility, but the primary flaw in that system is that not just the herbivores would become Elders and get that 10% stat boost. I also don't recall any of the devs actually talking about it and any Elder system thus far has just been in mods
You mean elder as in...well...old?
Basically yes. A long lived creature that gets a 10% increase in most stats such as health and attack and a size uptick equivalent to .1
Namely the idea is to reward people who actually try to survive for long periods of time on one dinosaur
I think there is also a cosmetic change
Permanent faded scars or a slightly different looking model. Something like that. All speculation of course
Faded colors, perhaps?
Yes, if you poke around enough you will be able to find fan rendered art of an elder galli and an elder para
Though I don't believe they dimmed the colors any
Ah. You think the goal is to have baby, Juvy, sub, and adult of every dino?
Potentially yes. But that depends entirely on the devs and how they wish to balance things out. Herbivores would generally benefit from a life style like galli and para as they only have to fight through two incredibly vulnerable stages from birth before they reach adult
This in turn would presumably allow them to grow faster and take less time populating a herd - or they would if nesting timers weren't so horrible -
However having a sturdier middle ground like trike might be more beneficial in the end
Haha. Nesting is nice, but he models for babies are just miniature adults. While it’s nice that you can nest, unique models for the babies would be a nice addition.
After the trike, it may be a while before another life cycle for a dino is developing. Especially all the things going on with dev branch, Utahs, Neuro Spino, and the dieno
And Colossus on its way
Cannibals as well
Well, baby models are constantly in development xD
So far we still have two missing herbivores
And a handful of missing predators
@river marsh juggernaut was Pachyrhino
Yes indeed it was
That's what the thing was all about. Thronebreaker I believe was...Magna?
Or was that the still be named one
Magna was known as The Father I thought?
There was a term for Stego, Pachyrhino, and Trike on the Twitter vote.
Thagomizer
And yeah. Allfather. Thanks
Thagomizer = stego
Gore = Trike
Juggernaut = Pachyrhino
Those are the three "special" attack types for the main survival herbs
What was thronebreaker?
I dunno, first I have heard of a thronebreaker
Thagomize and Gore are Stego and Trike
Yep, and Juggernaut is pachyrhino
Here's the tweet.
And here's when the Magnatyrannus was unleashed
https://twitter.com/theisleofficial/status/890819723155226624?s=19

Alphonse is Quetz
Interesting, Ty!
Basically Thagomize refers to the thagomizers, or the spikes on a stego's tail
But thronebreaker hasn't been released
Probably just another predator strain thing
Most people think it's something that has to do with Spinosaurus.
I think Don explained it was some vote for Survival between Stego (Thagomize), Trike (Gore), and I think Pachyrhino (Juggernaut)?
I could be wrong, though
Eh, anything that has to do with even more predator strains/mutations/ alterations to make them even meaner and more murderous is kinda boring now outside of just admiring the skill and effort they put into the models and animations
Also, dunno why he would need that vote if it was for adding a dino. Trike is already in. Then again, it could just be a vote for which special gets added
Well, added first
Pretty sure it was up when only T.rex, Carno and Utah were in Survival
Indeed it was
August of last year
Why are people making a fuss of it now though =-=
Eh
I kinda wish people had voted pachyrhino
The idea of a near unstoppable battering ram was fun
Or stego as a super bleeder
But I guess people wanted trikes to fight the big bad rexes and look where that got us lol
Because Juggernaut was brought up. No one is fussing over it
Doesn’t matter if it’s stats compensate
The idea of it is that the more it keeps running, the more impact force it builds up
One theory I heard is that it was going to be able to smash through walls and the like. But otherwise it seems to be intended to be the high chance leg breaker of the herbs
What if there was some bacteria or some cell organism that could replicate live or dead tissue with the right tinkering by scientist.
Gen 1, what the type suggest, was the first batch of dinos made as a test to see how far back they can bring life back. Now that scientists know that they can bring them back, they can add and adjust the dinos to they're liking. Now, what if something went wrong and made a Hypo/Nero or Tesso.
May have not came out right but they pursuit it to perfect it.
As they do that, they took the same tissue from the dinos with the bacteria or some cell organism and injected it into a human, making the cannibals, reaper and colossus.
IMO I think that the strains are deliberate and intentional
Probably not cannibals though
If it was deliberate then the hypos were the first to be made then the M type as a way to fix the Hypo's extreme energy use.
As for cannibals, could have been a mistake that went wrong if they one creature can change others as a mutant. I remember seeing something on the loading page about human test subjects dying when exposed to the Bactria, only a few lived, I think 12.
What's to say a creature (Lets say Nero's) can change others into mutated beasts.
Probably the echidna
exactly
What if they tested a nero strain on a human and changed the people that worked in this facility into cannibals. Maybe it can selectively change humans into any type it wants. But what is its benefit if it does turn someone into a mutant. At this point am thinking they're like ants. Queen, warriors, drones and hunters. In game the Echidna would have to give a boost of some sort to not make the cannibals eat they're maker.
I would say more but at this point its like 3 AM. Ill see what others think of this later. I may just to a diagram of the events of what may have happened and the UI and other details they put in the game.
One more thing about the M type. Could the reason for it being made was for military purposes or for combating against hypos as they seem a bit out of they're control with they're hunger.
Type M seems like a fixed version of Type H. Generally seems more outfitted for tactical use. I don't know of the Magnatyrannus' abilities yet, but I know the Magnaraptor is an OP tracker. To quote Dondi, "It's scent will actually be stupid" (stupidly strong, that is).
We have already seen what a Type-M Rex is capable of though; killing a Type-H counterpart. We also know it doesn't need to eat nearly as much as its Hyperendocrin counterparts. Maybe that's part of the perfected aspect? An extremely efficient digestive track that allows it to make the most out of what it eats, instead of a taking in as much calories as possible and probably taking a big, -2 pH Hyperendocrin shit.
Considering when we die we get to hear are heart monitors go flat and are view is placed outside of a screen, we might as well be programed creatures.
Or we are just viewers.
Yeah, could be a drone or some type of camera or tag in the animal.
Which means that the animals have been captured or bred in labs and were tagged before hand, studying vitals and what the animals do.
By the way, that Alfred quote from the stream probably refers to the Cannibals.
^
"That's how it starts, sir. The fever, the rage, the feeling of powerlessness that turns good men... cruel."
I guess you'll probably know when you are going to turn into a cannibal.
Maybe there are specific ingredients that Mercs or Tribals can garner to cure... you know... THE TURNING.
A high fever would start it off. The person might start to to be more aggressive, sometimes lash out completely at their friends. Soon, they know it is coming, and that there is next to nothing they can do. Then they go through some metamorphoses and become the Cannibals.
^that would be scary fucking cool
that would be neat 😄
That and echidna's annihilation style reflection shit.
Which blends you with her and her abnormalities. Possibly.
If she's the only active source for N-Types
If hypos are the speculative prototype of magna, then given some "unexpected" repercussions from certain strains (neuros -ie cannibals) you think we might see some "improved" versions of them as well? Neuro Spino might already be an example of said improved neuro strain given its potential abilities.
Strains are called strains because their creation process has something to do with the "Culturing" of specimens (Killing and breeding survivors and doing it over and over to make the population stronger), like bacteria and other microorganisms. Or it literally is a strain of microorganism that infects creatures and makes them develop the strains characteristics.
Question is, what the fuck are they being made for. We know the tools they have, but whats the purpose >.>
@Keitsumah#2657 Perhaps for military purposes, which is the most likely theory of why these strains and dinosaurs were created. As for why use human strains instead of dinosaurs? Four words... They can open doors. (And use tools, but they have strain abilities on their side.) A human with the strain can easily go inside of a base, and kill and humans in there.
However that is just my theory.
And for dinosaurs, they would likely have more advanced abilities, for example, the nuero being able to disable electronics, hypo being able to literally destroy almost anything (which can be helpful for crushing human structures.) , and the tisso being able to sneak (most likely to avoid gunfire)
What strain makes a cannibal?
I think our current best guess is that the cannibal is not a typical strain, but rather a strain of its own.
or possibly, maybe magna, because if it is an existing 'strain' then magna is the only option left for humans, despite magna not being a strain
but that is just wild speculation
Its at least linked to neuro tho
Echnida is neuro iirc and shes the mother of the cannibals
The cannibal has features of all 3 strains too, It is huge like a hypo, Fast and agile like a tisso and eyeless like a neuro. The Echidna is most likely the thing that makes cannibals, but who knows what she puts into them
How much bigger then a Human is the cannibal again? Is it like 125% bigger?
Um
It's a few feet taller than a human that's all I know 🤷
N spino is bigger than normal
So that doesn't mean a cannibal can't just be an n human
I think you guys might be overcomplicating it. What if the echidna just got out of containment and contaminated the scientists there? Then they freaked out and called for help but they were becoming cannibals
If it's less the double a humans height then it's more likely to be a Neuro
Hunched over he's taller than a human
He's also got long dancers legs.
So I wouldn't say that screams "Oh my gosh it's totally got Hypo in it"
no armor which is a huge tell of hypo as well, and no quills which is a tell of tisso
just rough skin
+1 🤔
I feel that might be a threat from the mother of cannibals. Thoughts?
no it's mercs establishing dominance
why would mercs establish dominance by telling themselves they aren't a distress call
When they are the ones invading
infighting 🗡
If it were the echidna I feel like the message would be singular
Theory group there's a transmission chat
Oh sweet
that twitter did say “we are live”
Result: Pushed
I feel like that might be something notable
it is now saying that it is live
and just noticed its located on site 12 where could that be ?
site 12?
i’m waiting to see that account pop into a VC while i’m the middle of a class
What the hell.....transmissions is up but I can't see the history?
So what do you do. Leave it open? Because if you're a second late then it won't show.
Yeah, how comes that we (or at least I) don't have access

I get the feeling relay = retweet
🤔
r e l a y the crap out of it.
Although this time we don't even know how many times we're supposed to "retweet" it
You can only retweet it once per account so
We still didn't retweet that one old tweet enough times either.
Usually when they do this kind of stuff it's like "500 retweets and you get this"

I have a gut feeling that things are going to get weird.
Weirder than psychic dinosaurs.
Yay!
Think about it though, when is the last time we saw transmissions of this frequency?
Going out on a limb here, but I seriously feel like something BIG is going to happen.
Surprised no one brought up Typhon
Who is typhon
flashbacks of titanfall
Probably
"Typhon's story is also connected with that of Python (the serpent killed by Apollo)"
Hmm?
O H
Hm.
Why have no one brought this fucker up?
Because it isn't popular as the other things
oOOOOooOoOoOo
giant serpant sounds familiar in a different mythos
it inspired a fuckin huge monster hunter creature but i don't remember its name

Only time something norse popped up was "Allfather"

Anantashesha or something?
yes yes that might be it

Allfather...
all the lesser creatures are just instruments to fuck eachother up
Wait so
A link to Zeus appears when you type Allfather into Google and follow the Wikipedia link.
Magnatyrannus is Zeus?
In Greek mythology Tartarus and Gaia are primordials @misty zealot 🤔🤔
