I agree

#

But I quite like my coloring idea

#

So if you’ve survived long enough

#

You could be fully buffed out and return to normal coloring

#

But not more than average camo

rare hedge Jan 20, 2018, 6:27 AM

#

I wouldn't want the system to become overly complicated, but I wouldn't be opposed to something like that either

jade vale Jan 20, 2018, 6:27 AM

#

And not to get cocky, but I quite like my abilities idea... as it gives the sense of small goals besides just “survive”

#

It’s kind of like the goals during the growing up phase

#

Once you’re an adult you can start buffing

brave girder Jan 20, 2018, 6:45 AM

#

That idea is good

#

More like achievments rather than upgrades

#

There would need to be something to tell the player what they would need to do for certain buffs, unless it's meant to be found out by them on their own

stuck magnet Jan 20, 2018, 6:49 AM

#

all of this is a good line of thinking

#

I can't always tell in other games exactly how much hp or what type of armor it is...tho i wouldnt be mad at some visible changes like scarring coming with a dmg mitigation for example

brave girder Jan 20, 2018, 6:50 AM

#

I also like the idea of having scent be able to tell what buffs a dinosaur might have, but I'm not sure if they are planning different colors for different dinosaurs already and that might interfere with it

stuck magnet Jan 20, 2018, 6:50 AM

#

but ya, all buffs should be INCREMENTALl like 10% above normal being a hard max on anything such as speed

Not really

How about being able to save skin colors, and upload them to the steam workshop. Of course this seems like something that's already planned, but i guess i'll throw it out if it isn't.

UI Suggestions: 1) When a server is full and you can't get in, have the screen end up on the servers list instead of the main menu. 2) Be able to search for a username in the Tab server playerlist, to make it easier/faster to add friends to groups. 3) Be able to view server count "x/75" at the top of the Tab playerlist.

#

being able to search for players in the playerlist would be really nice for a few reasons, but one of them being that sometimes when you are about to click (+) to add someone, if someone joins or leaves the server, there has been times when the playerlist will shift right as I am clicking add, and I end up inviting someone else unintentionally

#

Character UI Suggestion: Baseline heart rhythm expected be "Normal Sinus Rhythm" pattern. My utah raptor is nearly in complete heart block right now, and I am not damaged. Seeing random waves in place of heart rhythms in games takes your head out of the game if you are a medical professional

Ever thought of adding in a infection mechanic to certain dinosaur bites like the tyrannosaur? It would be like the bleed mechanic but you'd have a way to cure the infection. Such as herbs having to eat a special kind of plant. Or carnivores having to eat said herbs that have eaten the plants. And humans having to find some kind of serum to stop the effects?
Just a thought.

sacred haven Jan 21, 2018, 3:48 PM

#

When tribals start getting mounts and stuff, what if Trikes could potentially become living shields through armor on their heads much like how mideival horses were given (a custom-sized plate with nothing below to inhibit their jaw)? It may not protect them from the highest powered rifles and a simple mine could blast them to pieces from below, but if facing against medium to low powered groups, or hell a rival tribe, it could prove quite an advantage.

ancient plover Jan 21, 2018, 4:24 PM

#

Keep in mind it's still an animal. People thought the same about elephants but turns out elephants don't like warfare and are likely to run amock. Same would most likely happen to a majority of dinosaurs

sacred haven Jan 21, 2018, 5:16 PM

#

Yes, but given tribals will have some method of controlling their dinos through pain by the looks of the bone hooks, if a dinosaur cant get free of its own accord, why not calm down, lay in wait until such a fight, then get its rider killed and bolt with free armor? risky move but possible if its a last ditch effort

willow meteor Jan 21, 2018, 5:25 PM

#

I’m pretty sure some kind of armor is planned for dinos

#

But how do you plan for tribals to get metal armor

#

Wait you never said metal did you

covert swallow Jan 21, 2018, 5:42 PM

#

I have a suggestion: when humans created the tisso,neuro and hypo strains
They needed toxic materials to create injections and things like that, because
we know they had a lab. When they were done with those materials they get rid of them
into the wild. (What I’m trying to say is that they polluted the environment. Well those spore s will affect the small dinosaurs(e.g: hallucinations , extreme pain). By small I’m referring to
Baby dinosaurs as their systems are weak and are affected by the spores more easier, small dinosaurs like psittacosaurus as the spores are more likely to affect them. And also the spores can affect humans without protective suit and make them weaker and hallucinate. And with this system we can make that what humans do has consequences into the wilderness. If this is gonna be applied in the game I’ll say to be enabled on servers with humans and disabled on servers with role playing. Thanks for reading my suggestion 😃

ivory flume Jan 21, 2018, 5:45 PM

With this community, everyone should be a strain then

stiff veldt Jan 21, 2018, 5:54 PM

#

I mean Tribals could rip off doors to wreaked jeeps

#

And tie them onto a Trike head

#

Or hook them over the sides

echo bone Jan 21, 2018, 5:56 PM

#

Sounds like a pretty good idea ish, but it seems there is plans for something like that, so I wouldn't worry about it.

stiff veldt Jan 21, 2018, 5:57 PM

#

The spore idea sounds literally exactly like it was pulled off of ark aberration TBH

#

There's no reason to imagine waste products would cause any problems with wild life plus if they are testing animals why would they introduce unknown variables into the ecosystem

covert swallow Jan 21, 2018, 6:14 PM

#

I don’t even play or like ark xd

inner escarp Jan 21, 2018, 6:22 PM

#

Why instead of focusing on hybrid dinosaurs does not focus on more species you do not have in the game? (realistic species) such as Saurolophus osborni, good afternoon the Dondi, I speak here from Brazil we have enough players here.

willow meteor Jan 21, 2018, 6:23 PM

#

They don’t want to add dinosaurs too similar to other ones already in game

#

Saurolophus adds nothing a sub-adult shantungosaurus can’t do

inner escarp Jan 21, 2018, 6:45 PM

#

2-
Carcase sniffing system, and wind-driven sniffing, if you favor the wind sniffing the ability is doubled, if it is against the wind it is halved.

3-
If an animal is killed in the water, its body will float alone to the shore of the lake

stiff veldt Jan 21, 2018, 6:59 PM

#

There's problems with corpses not being where the food is sometimes IIRC. So floating to the shore would need to be worked on

covert swallow Jan 21, 2018, 7:58 PM

#

Trust me I want this game to be very realistic. Blood when you eat, a lot of gore, water mechanics realistically, flying mechanics, when you ambush to be more realistic , I want to grip on the neck as I hunt prey and kill them by suffocation, I want to stay as deino in water and grab prey and drag it in water, but I’m not talking about them because I know dondi and he team of devs can’t do all of those in 1 week. To develope a game you need a lot of time. I want all of the things above but I’m not telling them to the devs because they know already we want those things. Let the game evolve. The devs are working to the game , those mechanics will come in the game,the only thing that you need to do is to have Pacience

median pivot Jan 21, 2018, 8:24 PM

#

Wasn't there talk at one point about Rexes being able to grab and shake their opponents/food? I think at some point the right click button (or at least a button you can set) would be a nice feature to have.

gritty flame Jan 21, 2018, 8:26 PM

#

the survival mechanic for t. rex that was mentioned was t. rex being able to bite onto and crunch the fuck out of things

median pivot Jan 21, 2018, 8:29 PM

#

hmm

#

I assume that means some head shaking around like a dog with a toy might be implemented too

stiff veldt Jan 21, 2018, 8:40 PM

#

In the end the game can't be super realistic. Flying mechanics for animals are INSANELY hard to do realistically.

median pivot Jan 21, 2018, 8:41 PM

#

Of course. I've been a tester before so I remember Quetz flying at its worst lol.

dull tiger Jan 21, 2018, 8:41 PM

eventually there will be flyers

not now

median pivot Jan 21, 2018, 8:42 PM

#

Can you type in a complete sentence please?

#

A rex shaking and biting onto something is the topic of discussion, not the Quetz or flying. Picking up has already been attempted, (and with some hilarious ragdoll results), but it had a baby step put towards the right direction. The player-to-player part is going to be the tricky part I should think.

dull tiger Jan 21, 2018, 8:45 PM

#

yes it bit down and held

median pivot Jan 21, 2018, 8:45 PM

#

I'm sure they didn't given their bite force.

gritty flame Jan 21, 2018, 8:45 PM

#

their sustained bite force coupled with their special teeth meant they could just hold on and split through their prey's bones and flesh

stiff veldt Jan 21, 2018, 8:45 PM

#

The thing is Quetz flying can never be super accurate with the way it's being built.
Muh 100 MPH cruising speed at a few thousand feet in the air altitude

gritty flame Jan 21, 2018, 8:45 PM

#

it'd take a minute but the prey would be kerfuckled

#

talking large prey here

median pivot Jan 21, 2018, 8:46 PM

#

Sharks shake their prey sometimes, as do orcas. Kinda helps bludgeon the prey into dying faster given the teeth sunk in would tear larger holes

stiff veldt Jan 21, 2018, 8:46 PM

#

TBH Rex would probably go for quick powerful bites for the legs and vertabrae

median pivot Jan 21, 2018, 8:47 PM

#

It was an off-hand example

gritty flame Jan 21, 2018, 8:47 PM

#

t. rex could snap its jaws on a small prey item one time and it'd be dead in that second

dull tiger Jan 21, 2018, 8:47 PM

#

yes and it would fill your hunger a bit

gritty flame Jan 21, 2018, 8:47 PM

#

something even gallimimus size would be instafucked if a t. rex snapped its jaws on it

dull tiger Jan 21, 2018, 8:47 PM

#

like left click does blunt damage right click olds on/swallows

median pivot Jan 21, 2018, 8:47 PM

#

That's why in the beginning of my post I mentioned that it's probably already been talked about before.

#

And why it was an idea.

gritty flame Jan 21, 2018, 8:48 PM

#

or how about t. rex's actual bite just does that and the right click is the headbutt that was mentioned in the past

dull tiger Jan 21, 2018, 8:48 PM

#

what headbutt?

median pivot Jan 21, 2018, 8:48 PM

#

If you hold the left click down it performs a hold function

gritty flame Jan 21, 2018, 8:48 PM

#

it was months ago

median pivot Jan 21, 2018, 8:49 PM

#

Rex was due to have a headbutt and it wasn't months more like a year ago lol

gritty flame Jan 21, 2018, 8:49 PM

#

but somebody asked about secondary attacks on stream and a headbutt was mentioned for rex

#

shh

#

a year is an amount of months :^)

median pivot Jan 21, 2018, 8:49 PM

#

That's why rex has a 'fake bite' right now as there's supposed to be something planned to fill that button instead

To add to the previous suggestion

dapper moss Jan 22, 2018, 12:37 AM

What if when your dino is eating, and gets full, you have a set amount of time until you start to gag and throw up then you lose most or all of your hunger?

so dondi...you know how you said why you wont be putting sauropods into the final game...why not just leave them in sandbox...dont add humans to it...or let us as the community able to enable or disable them...or change their stats for the server...or cuz sauropods are big...it would take them longer to bleed out...or cuz they have such huge bones...have the arrows get stuck on the bone and not do full damage seeing as though the arrow or bullet didnt really hit anything major or minor...cuz sauropods are really cool dinosaurs...i can understand if you also dont want to add them in due to them being hard to code or hard to animate or something...and it is your decision...and i can respect that...but not adding them might have peopel write bad reviews due to you doing it anyway...up to you mate...all the best with this great game

Sauropods are staying in Sandbox, so far.
Doing human only or dino only servers wouldn't be that hard and has already been mentioned.

And the rest of your argument is silly. Animals aren't getting some kind of immunity because you think they're cool and things gotta go through a lot of body bits before it hits bone.

i didnt say that...and not neccesarily...the bone is near the surface of the skin...not in all areas...but on a dino as big as or bigger than an elephant...most of the bones in the fleshier places are close to the skin...was just seeing if more could be added is all

I know some dino hunter games have the background sauropods as NPCs the hunter cant kill or that it’s just really friggin hard

#

If the humans are just easily massacring sauropod NPCs in survival with impunity and creating free meals for every predator on the server maybe it could just be not worth the effort to waste bullets/arrows on a pue without a big group or a shitton of ammunition

Assuming arrows and bullets will have their limits in the future anyway

If males had a role at nesting that would make the nesting a realistic/controllable situation, by making females only able to place nests, and males being the only ones able to fill them with food, and both being able to hatch kids (choose the player)... instead of adding a mating animation, where some players could take it obscene :v

Small cosmetic suggestion, but I think the dinosaur dossiers on the dino selection screen should have a green tint to them instead of black and grey. Nearly all the monitors / screen in the game have a green tint to them. I don't know if it is black for a specific reason or if its just not the final design of them, but it'd be nice for consistency sake.

tropic haven Jan 24, 2018, 12:45 AM

#

I dunno about this minimalist hud thing, I don't mind it that much. But whether it is deemed worthy of implementation or not, it would be really nice to have some more physical indicators of a dinosaur's current state.

Instead of only taking damage from starvation and thirst, we could have stuff like panting for breath when out of stamina, stomach growling and/or more visible ribs on the sides when hungry. Stuff like that could really help an observational hunter determine the current state of his prey and would apply to the whole less-hud thingy that was suggested.
Actual wounds instead of just scarring, maybe as well?

Spawning in the resting position could be beneficial to those who are worried about being spotted the second they log in. I know the map is gonna be big and that’s not likely to happen but just a thought.

When body carrying comes in, if you bite something and that bite kills it (rather than it bleeding out obv), the corpse could spawn in your mouth, assuming you’d be able to carry it at all. Then to drop it you could press the bite button again, or if you wanted to swallow it whole you’d hold or press e.

Unsure if this was suggested before, but edible eggs might be really cool.

swift egret Jan 24, 2018, 6:44 PM

#

I thought that was going to be a thing? Lower tier creatures would be able to steal eggs out of nests and "eat" the progression points

analog solar Jan 24, 2018, 9:23 PM

#

That would be a good idea, if progression is still going to be a thing. I can only imagine eggs being a basic food supply now.

dusk flax Jan 24, 2018, 9:23 PM

#

Progression won’t continue to be a thing for much longer

#

Though, nesting will still happen

#

Doubt there will be a point for a mechanic like that though since more than likely velos won’t be playable

swift egret Jan 24, 2018, 9:24 PM

#

Oh right true, hmmm

#

Eggs maybe just give food then?

#

It would have to be done carefully, if at all. I can already see the exploit potential. Put a nest in a hidden location, then tell your friend where it is while you hunt for them and add "food" to the nest.

This is a suggestion for survival. Human weapons only on half the official servers? There is a lot of people who don't want to play with the threat of humans, there are also the people who like playing as the humans. So could we come to a compromise and only have the human weapons on half the servers?

Perhaps shorten nights a little if possible until night vision is improved upon?

@primal prawn I don’t think this is a bad idea, but I wouldn’t say half... maybe 1/3

Mating call mechanic: You call out a mating call, which only other species of your dinosaur and the opp sex can hear. Then you mate.

willow meteor Jan 25, 2018, 3:50 AM

#

that's basically what the broadcast is

#

also why would only your species be able to hear it

ancient plover Jan 25, 2018, 3:51 AM

#

So you find each other to mate?

willow meteor Jan 25, 2018, 3:51 AM

#

makes no sense

ancient plover Jan 25, 2018, 3:51 AM

#

Why?

willow meteor Jan 25, 2018, 3:51 AM

#

how are you going to make a sound only your species can hear

#

also serves as a way to find each other without anything else hearing

ancient plover Jan 25, 2018, 3:52 AM

#

Specialized sound at a high ring

#

Kinda like dogs and humans

willow meteor Jan 25, 2018, 3:52 AM

#

eh

#

no one would ever use any other calls

ancient plover Jan 25, 2018, 3:52 AM

#

I mean

willow meteor Jan 25, 2018, 3:52 AM

#

mating call fair enough but others should be able to hear

ancient plover Jan 25, 2018, 3:52 AM

#

But you could only use the mating call to mate, and if you dont,you get a penalty?

#

I mean I guess others should be able to hear

#

Idk

#

Split on it

quiet pawn Jan 25, 2018, 3:53 AM

#

your penality is the risk of other players hearing and prey possibly running away from you or a pred coming to you

ancient plover Jan 25, 2018, 3:54 AM

#

Yeah but like thats for all the other calls

if no one else could hear it, it wouldnt be fun if it isnt risky

ancient plover Jan 25, 2018, 3:54 AM

#

Specialized mating calls are just for mating

willow meteor Jan 25, 2018, 3:54 AM

#

okay and it makes no sense to have them inaudible to anything but your species

ancient plover Jan 25, 2018, 3:54 AM

#

Plus the amount of same species specifacally being opp genders will be hella rare

#

so like

#

to risk a mating call for nothing?

willow meteor Jan 25, 2018, 3:55 AM

#

that's the risk of calling out

#

why risk a broadcast for nothing?

ancient plover Jan 25, 2018, 3:55 AM

#

A broadcast would be different.

quiet pawn Jan 25, 2018, 3:56 AM

..or you just can type in the chat

ancient plover Jan 25, 2018, 3:56 AM

how is chatting op????

quiet pawn Jan 25, 2018, 3:57 AM

its not op if there is a risk

ancient plover Jan 25, 2018, 3:57 AM

#

well look at it like this

willow meteor Jan 25, 2018, 3:57 AM

#

you make a noise when you chat

#

the risk is something hearing you

ancient plover Jan 25, 2018, 3:57 AM

#

why use any of your 1 2 3 4 calls

willow meteor Jan 25, 2018, 3:57 AM

#

in reward for being able to talk to your friends

ancient plover Jan 25, 2018, 3:57 AM

#

when you could just chat and make a smaller noise

quiet pawn Jan 25, 2018, 3:57 AM

#

chat is more short ranged i believe

#

and id prefer people chatting and making a sound rather than forming steam chat groups and no one notices

ancient plover Jan 25, 2018, 3:58 AM

#

True

quiet pawn Jan 25, 2018, 3:58 AM

#

and it is species-locked unlike any call

ancient plover Jan 25, 2018, 3:59 AM

#

Mhm

#

Well I guess

#

A mating call should still be a thing tho

#

but maybe like it broadcasts better to the opp sex of your gender

candid salmon Jan 25, 2018, 3:59 AM

#

You mean the 1 button?

ancient plover Jan 25, 2018, 3:59 AM

#

"but maybe like it broadcasts better to the opp sex of your gender"

#

iall use the mating call to bait females

#

then eat them

#

Hmm

rare hedge Jan 25, 2018, 4:05 AM

#

Ehhhhh. I disagree with the mating call idea

#

Broadcasting serves that purpose fine

#

"More different broadcast" wouldn't be much of an addition to the game

ancient plover Jan 25, 2018, 4:22 AM

#

The most I think I'd ever see as a purpose for a "mating call" would be something like an auto nest invite, direct the roar at a dinosaur of the opposite sex and it would show a pop up on their screen of like, "Would you like to nest with 'insert player name' ?" Of course they have the option to decline or accept the nesting inv, but if they accept, boom, you two are mates.

#

But I may be going too deep into a non-needed mechanic

digital moat Jan 25, 2018, 4:30 AM

#

A lot of work for little return in any addition to the gameplay. Broadcasting and group invites work fine for the same purpose.

#

Maybe bone spears or another sort of melee weapon for tribals to keep things at bay from getting too close. An interesting mechanic would be for a tribal to anchor the pole arm into the ground just before a charging predator runs them down...

Would be interesting to further customize dinos youve manage to get control over aside from warpaint..

#

Could also be an interesting way to classify certain tribe dinosaurs, but that's everything warpaint can do

#

perhaps some kind of armor system to have some bone-like armor thrown around them to maybe prevent cannibals from getting grips onto your dinos flesh.

Mini-fortresses on top of pues? Similar to LOTR war elephants, tribals could house atop pues, or large sauropods.

Craft-able walking sticks for when your human has stubbed his toe. Increases your walking speed when your leg is broken.

sacred haven Jan 25, 2018, 7:40 PM

#

Perhaps when galli is made for survival have the baby be the same speed as adult but far less stamina, so its more built to dart to a bush and hide if a predators around and eventually develops more and more stamina as it grows and it becomes harder to hide

willow meteor Jan 25, 2018, 8:30 PM

#

Show me a baby ostrich keeping up with its parents running at full speed

#

I’m ok with baby gallies being fast but that’s a little ridiculous

ancient plover Jan 25, 2018, 8:36 PM

#

^

#

I mean juvie rexes are fast then get slower as they age and grow into adulthood

#

but baby gallies running at that speed would be too fast

willow meteor Jan 25, 2018, 8:37 PM

#

juvie rexes are also built completely differently than buff boi adults

#

gallies are pretty much made to run from birth to death

ancient plover Jan 25, 2018, 8:37 PM

#

Mhm

slim umbra Jan 25, 2018, 9:30 PM

Still doesn’t mean those little legs that are still learning how to walk would keep up with those hardcore ones with years of experience that are about 10 times as long

willow meteor Jan 25, 2018, 9:31 PM

#

^

sacred haven Jan 25, 2018, 9:33 PM

#

Take a look at gazelles and consider the spot that galli is in ecosystem wise -those babies are expected to run fast, if not for long distances. It may be closer to an ostrich but it is not one as for niche. Ostriches have size on their size to kick and kill smaller predators. Gallis, and gazelles, do not. (they cant even take on a utah)

candid salmon Jan 25, 2018, 9:35 PM

#

There are also reasons that young animals in Africa just lay down instead of trying to futily outspeed a predator...

#

And hide

willow meteor Jan 25, 2018, 9:36 PM

#

No one is saying baby gallies can’t be fast. Just that they shouldn’t be able to keep up with an adult at full sprint

#

also gallies kick the shit out of smaller predators and humans

sacred haven Jan 25, 2018, 9:37 PM

#

A utah chasing a baby galli, even if its quicker, will still be able to catch it if it far outstrips it in stamina. The reason I suggest such speed is meant for darting into bushes as I said in the original suggestion so it can hide

willow meteor Jan 25, 2018, 9:37 PM

#

yeah

#

babies can be fast without being adult speed tho

#

Galli is the fastest thing in game I’m pretty sure

sacred haven Jan 25, 2018, 9:41 PM

#

Galli is outpaced by carno and matches speed with utah.

ancient plover Jan 25, 2018, 9:41 PM

#

My opp Galli should be the fastest, then utah, then carno

#

But I know thats up for debate

sacred haven Jan 25, 2018, 9:41 PM

#

carno cans till be fastest but its turn would need a slight nerf when running. its easy enough for them to juke a bad carno then

#

as for utah and galli.....im tempted to say utah has more stam

#

so galli is virtually fucked if it comes across either of those preds

#

(right now anyways)

willow horizon Jan 25, 2018, 9:43 PM

#

Galli has more stam

#

200 seconds of running

utah has 150

ancient plover Jan 25, 2018, 9:43 PM

ancient plover Jan 25, 2018, 9:44 PM

Well let me correct myself

#

That isn't the for all dinosaurs

sacred haven Jan 25, 2018, 9:45 PM

You might want to consider theri which is a glass cannon for example. galli is just speed. nothing else even going for it

ancient plover Jan 25, 2018, 9:46 PM

#

True, Theri is a glass cannon

sacred haven Jan 25, 2018, 9:46 PM

#

eh...it can only kill up to a herra I think. austro and utah and above only need a bite or two to kill it

#

a glass cannon is only that if it can nuke things at the cost of low hp

ancient plover Jan 25, 2018, 9:47 PM

#

Did I say Galli?

#

Lmao I meant Theri

sacred haven Jan 25, 2018, 9:47 PM

#

Id love it if galli had a slight chance to break the legs of smaller preds specifically (it breaking the leg of a rex would be stupid) in case it got cornered. but thats kinda pointless if you die in a bite or two

#

I guess their specials will come in handy as if you group up your supposed to be faster apparently

ancient plover Jan 25, 2018, 9:48 PM

#

If the Galli would break a predators leg with a kick, would probs just kill it with that force instead.

sacred haven Jan 25, 2018, 9:49 PM

#

probably. but one-shotting a utah isnt exactly fair either. I can see a female galli killing a utah in 2-3 hits if its crazy enough to defend its babies....actually that goes into the parenting buffs...

#

which reminds me: babies need to auto-grow. If the parenting/nesting buffs do get implemented, it wouldnt be a great idea to have someone stay young just to hide in a bush nearby and keep their parents op

willow meteor Jan 25, 2018, 9:57 PM

#

Pretty sure that’s the plan, eventually

native totem Jan 25, 2018, 10:10 PM

#

With this color system, it would be very interesting if nesting resulted in the babies having the colors of the male or female mixed. Perhaps in simple terms or as extreme as Flight Rising's breeding system. I think it'd be fun for players to see how their children turn out and equally exciting for those playing the hatchlings.

spare flume Jan 25, 2018, 10:26 PM

#

@Keitsumah#2657 dude gallis can kill Utahs and sub adult carnos lol

#

It’s funny watching the AI do it

#

They’ll jack you up if you’re not careful

#

But if it’s going to be in survival I’d recommend it having more stam and being able to regenerate that stam while trotting

stray cairn Jan 26, 2018, 8:58 PM

#

What if there was a minimap for dinos/tribals that would unlock as you explore but slowly fade if you have not been to that area for a while so it acts like you remember your way but of course if you have not been somewhere for a while you forget how to get there.

lime goblet Jan 26, 2018, 10:45 PM

#

mercs should have an super rare GPS

#

tribals have an extremly basic map

#

animals would navigate via scent, traveling to water sources and carcasses

stray cairn Jan 26, 2018, 10:52 PM

#

Yeah the scent navigation sounds more realistic. Same with the other two.

lime goblet Jan 26, 2018, 11:09 PM

#

GPS funtions similar to real units. You place down marker and create paths. Tribal map would have drawn in markers. Tribal maps would be client side while GPS users have the option of uploading marker positions and paths.

Some sort of mini game to help heal damage you have taking or like bleed that you have kinda like a licking your wounds time deal or applying a Medkit for humans I guess something that lets fights between carnivores less they both die from bleed and more the survivor of the fight gets to heal instead of sit and let the bleed take hold or something similar to just help healing after fights better 😛

stray cairn Jan 27, 2018, 12:04 AM

#

That sounds cool! so how good you did in the minigame determines how much you heal and effects will be removed.

#

Maybe you have to use extra hunger or something to prevent people from spamming that though if it were added

dusk flax Jan 27, 2018, 12:07 AM

#

What purpose would a minigame like that serve, other than preventing death from certain fights? Couldn't the need of that mechanic just be bypassed completely by just not getting into fights you can't win?

#

Besides, would a dinosaur even have licked their wounds?

stray cairn Jan 27, 2018, 12:09 AM

#

True if this would be a thing people would make stupid decisions rather than think before engaging...

#

So probably not the best idea

I mean I just would like to see some sort of healing mechanic other then sit and heal Iam not saying I hate the current system of healing and Iam sure there will be something in the future Iam just saying some sort of mini game kinda like what rust has with gathering resources. And yes Iam sure people will get into fights more often cause they don’t need to worry about complete death but it’s better then both just kinda facing rolling over.

#

And licking wounds is a example remember this isn’t a realistic game

#

Just would like to see fights not one sided is all I guess

#

Mostly cause of the new bleed system

Tweak/update Hypo Rex model? His teeth are a little less impressive size-wise compared to the other two and aren't as well sculpted into the skull. Also sharpen up his back armour, don't add anything by any means, I mean he's the most minimal and simplistic because he doesn't need to compensate for anything as the other two do. Maybe just sharpen up the edges of the armour, make it more defined?

ancient plover Jan 28, 2018, 12:16 AM

I actually would not mind like a few spikes on the hypo rex model i mean iam sure they not going remodel but the giga has that one big spike on its back and the spino has those like 3 spikes on its chest sides. idk maybe give like hypo rex like just a random spike on its tail XD dont touch that back thow its armor plated back its dope af

I would like to make a suggestion for this discord. I've been seeing a lot of the same thing around in servers, where people require modders etc. Although it's all well and good just asking for a modder in the devkit chat; I had a thought that it might be a good idea (and encourage the community to work together) to implement a devkit and server owner chat, where a server owner can post an advert for something, and modders can see that and respond to it. Likewise, modders can 'advertise' their services there. It would be literally just a help finder. I have a feeling it could be really useful to many people.
Thanks for reading!

willow meteor Jan 28, 2018, 4:47 PM

What can they do that one of the other big carnivores can’t do?

Saying “they don’t get enough love” is a bad reason to spend $5000+ on adding it to the game

upper rivet Jan 28, 2018, 4:48 PM

the exact reason why I said just throwing it out there. it was an idea that I knew would never get off the ground

#

eustreptospondylus hasn't been in a game yet. once again, I know this will get nowhere

ancient plover Jan 28, 2018, 5:11 PM

#

You see, dinosaurs are like an investment, $6000 for a rex? Worth it. Everyone expects a rex in a dinosaur game, so its kind of a necessity. $6000 for a giga? Worth it, yet again. A large carnivore that can bleed out others, seems unique enough. $6000 for a small creature that has its role filled out already by like 3 other carnivores?

Not a chance in hell. The money put in might cause curiosity in the creature, but its wasted time and resources.

Also, you can't throw out suggestions if you know its going to fail, try to have solid points as to why it should be in. "No other game has it, " just wont cut it. Give a mechanic or something that would draw players to play as it other than its 18 letter name.

upper rivet Jan 28, 2018, 5:34 PM

#

just checked most popular prehistoric animals. game already has all the good ones. megalosaurus was higer up than galli and ceratosaurus but for some reason the stellers sea cow was higher than all three of them. then again, the megalosaurus is probably up that high due to its popularity in the 1800s

#

every popular one is already in the game or in development. good job on the devs

quick wyvern Jan 28, 2018, 5:39 PM

#

It'd be cool to have stuff like Megalosaurus and Torvosaurus in, but they already have their roles filled by creatures like Allosaurus and Albertosaurus.

#

So not worth the investment until far later down the line.

with those done, it is all about mechanics, as stated above

sacred haven Jan 28, 2018, 6:30 PM

#

What if galli had a counter grapple ability for smaller preds? As an example it it got tackled by a Utah, it could roll onto it's back and deliver a swift kick to the Utah's stomach, probably having a chance of disemboweling it.

#

Obviously that leaves it's own stomach and neck vulnerable so it's more of a I'll fight to the death and try to take you with me thing

blissful plume Jan 28, 2018, 6:37 PM

#

Well what’s the point of that then? The Utah went through the work of executing the pounce but dies because of said mechanic along with the gali. As fast and small as Galis are if a Utah can actually land a pounce it deserves a reward for the effort. The gali still has speed and small size going for it so avoiding being pounce shouldn’t be hard at all.

willow meteor Jan 28, 2018, 6:39 PM

Yeah I agree. If a galli is caught by a Utah it kind of deserves it

Utah would probably rip a galis head clean off irl to be honest.

#

If it could catch it.

willow meteor Jan 28, 2018, 6:41 PM

#

mmm hmm

sacred haven Jan 28, 2018, 6:44 PM

#

Then the Utah could let go and avoid it. Said galli would be stuck on it's back already bleeding from the previous attack, leaving itself open to a second pounce once it gets up.

#

It was more of a suggestion for more interactive combat between predator and prey rather than run and kick, and pounce and bite. More mechanics will be great but I'd particularly enjoy combat actually taking skill

willow meteor Jan 28, 2018, 6:45 PM

#

Why would you punish a Utah for doing what it’s supposed to do and reward the Galli for getting caught

#

I can agree with that but Galli is basically all running and if a Utah manages to catch one off guard it definitely shouldn’t be punished for it

sacred haven Jan 28, 2018, 6:47 PM

#

I did say chance. Doesn't have to be a big one and Utah needs like....how many seconds to kill a galli?

#

That's enough time for either an afk to die or something that isn't paying attention to mess up

willow meteor Jan 28, 2018, 6:51 PM

#

But again

#

You’re punishing the Utah for pouncing on something which it’s meant to do

#

And rewarding the Galli for getting caught

#

if I was a Utah why would I ever pounce on something if it can just kill me once I pounce it

#

Everyone would just go back to biting and running and the boring gameplay you’re trying to avoid

#

the concept is good, but your execution isn’t

sacred haven Jan 28, 2018, 6:53 PM

#

Okay, what if galli could roll sideways to try and knock off the utah and bolt much like how the shant shakes itself?

#

With the shant shake, it has a chance of breaking a utahs legs or even outright killing them. So I dont see how the galli doing such would be any different

willow meteor Jan 28, 2018, 6:55 PM

#

Shant is also baby whale-sized and something a Utah should think twice about attacking

#

Galli is much more suitable prey

#

The bolting thing is better though. I don’t think it should be a guarantee that the Galli will get away though, it still got caught at the end of the day

sacred haven Jan 28, 2018, 6:57 PM

#

I imagine if a utah got its talons into a galli's leg it has a high chance of severing tendons and permanently crippling the thing

#

also, bolt is simply a phrase for running awya suddenly. If the utah catches a galli but doesn't get the tendon sever, the galli can tumble then run away after knock it off maybe?

#

a single pounce likely already gives it enough bleed to kill it however

#

so the window of opportunity for a galli to tumble it literally int hat moment when a utah manages the latch but before it can dig its talons in

ancient plover Jan 28, 2018, 8:46 PM

#

That kind of hard counter to a essential mechanic is a terrible idea. What's preventing the galli from just getting good at doing that and then just using it to never be pounded? Pounce is critical for Utah's success, so making it useless against an specific animal is a very bad idea. Then Utah's would never hunt gallis, making the mechanic pointless to begin with.

blissful plume Jan 28, 2018, 8:58 PM

Give creatures with sharper eyes, like raptors or hadrosaurs, the ability to ‘focus’ or zoom in the camera slightly.

Austroraptor & Pachycephalosaurus

As two of the smaller dinosaurs that have unique characteristics that distinguishes them from any other dinosaurs, Austroraptor and Pachycephalosaurus both appear and play like mundane dinosaurs that are weaker in every way possible compared to their bigger relatives.

I have heard whispers that Austroraptor is going to be more aquatic and able to pounce, but his model looks a bit goofy. Austroraptor is one of two and a half dinosaurs to have “feathers” in the current game and it makes him stick out but not in an aquatic or agile way. I think a new model for him would be a welcome change from the community and would spark interest in playing him again when he comes to survival as its own unique dinosaur.

Pachycephalosaurus on the other hand needs a desperate change to game play. It’s such an iconic dinosaurs so it’s so disheartening to see him in the current state that he’s in. Other dinosaurs (both carnivores and herbivores) are better than him in every way possible. It might be a bit stereotypical to put him in this role I’m going to propose but hear me out. Pachycephalosaurus should be the ultimate mountain herbivore (yes like a mountain goat). A combination of higher resistance to fall damage/bone break and the ability to jump, would help his case for a valid gameplay experience tremendously. A new model that makes it look rough and rugged like the environment that it’s supposed to live in will restore honor to this popular dinosaur and make players happy.

brave girder Jan 29, 2018, 12:27 AM

Giving it an attack that deals knockback could be interesting

#

but I'm not sure how well that would even work

hasty dawn Jan 29, 2018, 1:04 AM

#

Wouldn't be opposed to a Pachycephalosaurus overhaul.

ancient plover Jan 29, 2018, 1:06 AM

#

Austro is like the only animal i feel doesnt need a rehaul. I enjoy its current model. But givin pachy some love would be nice.

quick wyvern Jan 29, 2018, 1:11 AM

#

Like the Pachy suggestion, do not think a new model is at all necessary for the Austro (same goes for Pachy, though I don't care for its current one)

narrow needle Jan 29, 2018, 1:15 AM

#

Mountain pachy or any pachy overhaul would be very interesting. I for one would shit bricks if during a mountain climb as a human or small dinosaur I came across a dinosaur capable of either breaking my leg, shoving me around at such a high altitude, or persuing me across dangerous terrain with ease.

I am all for rugged ass mountain goat Pachycephalosaurus.

Not sure about Pachy having the ability to jump, but I do like the rest of the idea.

echo bone Jan 29, 2018, 2:16 AM

#

honestly, mountain dinosaurs are just going to look really funny until the body follows the terrain in a meaningfull way, as opposed to just having thier faces clip in it.

#

But a mountain pachy would be really neat

#

Maybe it could walk up and down steeper slopes before sliding?

blissful plume Jan 29, 2018, 4:09 AM

#

Would be nice if there were some strategically placed rocks that smaller dinosaurs can climb up on and peer over the foliage. Just to get an idea of where the hell they are rather than wandering aimlessly through the brush for hours until they starve or accidentally run into a predator.

upbeat nebula Jan 29, 2018, 6:08 AM

#

So kind of taking this from Saurian's Anzu but a Hadrosaur like Corythosaurus could have a sound mimicry ability to scare off predators or even just fuck with people.

#

Like imagine just you and your merc buddies surprise when you see nothing but some peaceful herbivore then hear a hypo rex roar out of nowhere

chrome abyss Jan 29, 2018, 7:29 AM

#

Mimicking calls would be pretty sweet, I’ll admit, but I heard a thing a while back that the neuro strain will be able to communicate between species and mimic calls like that-

I always thought it’d be cool if cory/para had special frequency calls that could only be picked up be other cory/paras. Kinda so you can communicate somewhat silently n stuff- dunno, thought it’d be something cool.

devout wraith Jan 29, 2018, 8:07 AM

#

The more I hear people talk about Cory, the more I want to play it...Strange.

merry edge Jan 29, 2018, 12:21 PM

Hopefully para will have a place in the game someday

upper rivet Jan 29, 2018, 2:01 PM

Every single time you guys say Cory, I think of that dead meme. By the way, different frequencies is an interesting idea

Could Parasaurolophus get some love or is it gone? since it is an iconic dinosaur.

Problem is... too similar to Maia to warrant being added now.

Is maia being included in survival, Or is shant taking the hadrosaur spot?

#

Thus the title "suggestions"

cursive stag Jan 29, 2018, 6:52 PM

#

In regards to pachy suggestion @stuck locust . I can see it getting some love, and I get your suggestion but is there any scientific evidence the creature built how Pachy is could actually do what you're suggesting? I think that plays a huge roll in whether or not it would be really considered by devs or not in terms of game play. I know that not everything in the game is realistic and such obviously, but for a lot of things they seem to try and keep things realistically feasible based on what the animal's build could actually accomplish. I do think that a higher resistance to bone break would make some sense, not sure about the sudden ability to jump and agility needed to better rock climb. There's a difference between a four legged animal on a mountain side and a two legged one. Realistically when a four legged animal loses it's grip as rocks slide or fall under foot it's got the other 3 legs to make up for the sudden shift in weight. Pachy only has one other leg to make up for the weight shift if that was the case. Granted in the game we don't have those issues to deal with but still. Smug made a good suggestion with the knock back. Which makes sense for it's headbutt attack. Or perhaps a potiential stunning blow on top of the knock back, giving the pachy a few extra seconds to try and run away out of sight while the carnivore in question is trying to figure out what the heck just happened. For this I think it should have to have a few second run start to achieve that attack though. So in essence the animal would have to be aware of it's surroundings and line up it's defense to achieve the knockback/stun. If a carnivore catches it off guard it could try and attack like it normally does. Does the same as it does now damage wise. That's the punishment for not being aware. But say the pachy sees it's prediator not being sneaky and coming at them head on...then the predator gets punished for it

#

As for the austro. I like the austro model. I love how it looks. Only reason I don't like playing austro is the lack of stamina and speed compared to the rest of it's game play mechanics that's in the game right this minute. Once they flesh austro out more like they plan to I think a lot of people will go back to it more. I think people not playing has more with game play mechanics then how it looks honestly.

grand dawn Jan 29, 2018, 6:56 PM

#

@cursive stag gameplay > realism that's what they said to me when a was desagreeing about the carno's gameplay (faster you are to go in contact with your prey, more damages you make, that is absurd because carno hasn't the ability to do that without breaking its neck) so why not give a montain adaptation for pachy ? knowing that it's head hiting is already taken by carno

cursive stag Jan 29, 2018, 7:01 PM

#

Thing is it's a herbivore not a carnivore. So even if carno has the head hitting game play that's from a carnivore perspective. where as pachy would be a herbivore perspective. We're talking defense instead of offense. You also have the fact it would be easier on the devs cause they'd already have worked the mechanics out for carno, they would simply have to tweak it for pachy. But the thing is, pachy can't jump. It never could. Besides that. they may have fudged reality a little bit with carno being able to survive that sort of momentum, they didn't change carno completely in everything it could do. They just made it not die with one bad impact. The suggestion they could be like mountain goats changes everything about the pachy as an animal.

grand dawn Jan 29, 2018, 7:28 PM

#

i think pachy could jump, itis not so heavy and he has good muscles

cursive stag Jan 29, 2018, 7:28 PM

#

I'm sorry but I wanna see Oro jump before I see pachy jump >.>

grand dawn Jan 29, 2018, 7:29 PM

#

ok

cursive stag Jan 29, 2018, 7:29 PM

#

I mean if we're talking about dinos that should be able to jump. if pachy gets to jump but oro can't when oro looks like it can jump better then pachy that's to blantent of an inconsistancy, it'd irk me lol.

grand dawn Jan 29, 2018, 7:31 PM

#

but keep in mind that pachy weight only 450kg so i will not be shocked if it has a jump, as oro must have one, galli too, as well as dryo

cursive stag Jan 29, 2018, 7:32 PM

#

Oro can't jump

#

It was stated when I brought it up that it realistically wasn't built to be able to

#

shrugs

grand dawn Jan 29, 2018, 7:32 PM

#

yeah but if we follow the logic of the devs oro will not be playable so... do we care about its ability to jump ? i am a progression player, so i thik it is a shame too

cursive stag Jan 29, 2018, 7:33 PM

#

Fudging so carno survives ramming something is different then completely changing the way the dino plays by allowing it to be able to jump when it shouldn't be able to.

#

You'll get people wanting other dinos to be able to jump then at that point.

#

People will want baby carnos and rexes to be able to jump

grand dawn Jan 29, 2018, 7:34 PM

#

only pipedals dinos that weight under 1t should be able to jump

#

i agree that it is a bad idea to give baby abilies that their parent haven't

cursive stag Jan 29, 2018, 7:35 PM

#

Well the under 1 ton rule includes babies

grand dawn Jan 29, 2018, 7:35 PM

#

even if young rex were hunting differents preys than adult ones

#

so it isn't shocking me

cursive stag Jan 29, 2018, 7:36 PM

#

Yeah. but what I'm saying is if you change the game play of one dino and use those arguements for why you do it, then you have to apply it to everything else. Otherwise it just looks bad

#

because you'll have everyone else using those arguements for why they think other dinos should get to or why babies should get to, and there would be even more endless bitching then there already is.

grand dawn Jan 29, 2018, 7:39 PM

#

but in therm of gameplay it is better to keep gameplay remaining the same for every specimen of the same specie

cursive stag Jan 29, 2018, 7:40 PM

#

It's better to suggest ideas based on the game play that's already there. Some of the suggestion he had was good. The higher resistance to bone breaking, and then someone suggested head butting. I added a stun. Now you've got a more unique game play angled around what's already there based off of what the animal is actually built for. Just cause Carno can ram things for more damage doesn't mean it's exactly the same thing for Pachy, it's speed is less, I believe it's stamina is less. It's purely defensive to knock back and stunn instead of do massive damage. Just so that it can run away. It's different game play entirely with a similiar mechanic they're basically already going to have in the game.

#

at least that's how I see it. shrugs

#

it's a moot point though. It's only a suggestion after all. Nothing to state it will be considered.

#

they have enough to work on with the dinos they plan to have in survival.

grand dawn Jan 29, 2018, 7:45 PM

#

i have so bad feelings about survival =/

cursive stag Jan 29, 2018, 7:45 PM

#

Just have to look at it also from this perspective too. To make pachy jump they then have to go and do all the animation to add that in too. Then decide how high it can jump, how slow/fast it jumps. How much stamina it uses when it jumps.

#

Neither of the dinos I like to play the most will be in survival, but I'm loving it so far. Survival is going to be great when they get done with it.

grand dawn Jan 29, 2018, 7:46 PM

#

yeah i know, i work in video game (game designer)

#

meh, they may should to keep progression as an alternative game mode and let players choose

#

and i am very affraid about their AI

cursive stag Jan 29, 2018, 7:49 PM

#

When the dev kit comes out public again (should it) if you work in game design then you shouldn't have a problem modding it back in. Personally I like the fact that when we unlock a dino it stays unlocked with survival instead of playing things over and over and over to get to what I wanna play.

#

their AI is gonna take a lot of work I'm sure. I can't wait for carnivore ai

grand dawn Jan 29, 2018, 7:52 PM

#

ok, but is is also interesting to have this system for RP servers as it allows to have small dinos in ecosystems; choosing our dinos as it is was a sandbox (because it is what it is when tou have all the dinos unlock) will produce servers full of rexes and humans; and the game will become a Primal Carnage on a bigest map

cursive stag Jan 29, 2018, 7:53 PM

#

AI would solve some of that

#

and humans have already fixed rex hordes

#

anyways this stopped being suggestions. I gotta go as well. Nice conversation though. ^.^ chat with you later

grand dawn Jan 29, 2018, 7:56 PM

i'm not convinced as it is very hard to make good AI, furthermore for independant studios with reduced team

cursive stag Jan 29, 2018, 9:56 PM

#

right now considering most of everything he's doing in terms of database, it could be a while before it's stable enough that progress isn't going to be lost. Even if you log out since the database is getting changed you're still going to probably lose progress. And how is that passive aggressive? He simply gave alternatives to what you can do if you can't take losing your progress.

stuck locust Jan 29, 2018, 9:56 PM

#

@cursive stag The problem with the headbutt knockback/stun attack is that i'll look goofy/silly against anything bigger then a pachycephalosaurus. The pachys main weakness currently is anything that is bigger then it. Having the ablity to jump is crucial part of scaling mountians in most any game, and giving the pachy this abilty most likely won't break the game or add some weird mechanic that doesn't solve its problems for viable gameplay. Anything that can jump will still have a fun time hunting pachys but at least it'll have some fighting chance.

cursive stag Jan 29, 2018, 9:57 PM

#

Well it wouldn't work on anything much bigger then it

#

Pachy shouldn't be able to take on things much larger then it

#

For creatures it's size and smaller sure, but creatures bigger then it? If you don't like bigger creatures being able to make you a snack. play a bigger creature.

#

Or pay attention to your surroundings and hide. Large creatures are not at all hard to hide from. You tend to see them coming pretty easily if you're paying attention.

primal prawn Jan 29, 2018, 10:09 PM

#

@vague trench but a notice for a cluster is good too. Not everyone leaves this discord with notifacations on like you. So not everyone would see him say it until its too late, plus saying there is a cluster coming is more effective then saying "update please logout" every 30 minutes of the day

cursive stag Jan 29, 2018, 10:10 PM

#

@primal prawn Right now, while the database is undergoing a lot of maintence. It doesn't matter if you happen to log out. You realize that right?

#

"there will be frequent database resets in early access until we tet the database system perfect. if you cant han dle lossing data, please play on sandbox or uninstall to play later" To quote SchericT who quoted deathly

#

why bother making an announcement, if everyone loses everything anyways due to the change he made?

primal prawn Jan 29, 2018, 10:19 PM

#

i understand that, i was simply telling him why i think there should be a notice for ANY cluster, not just this one. You explain that and quote that like i cant read.

#

@cursive stag

#

im just gonna stop posting any suggestion cause every time i every have, i was chewed out for it

cursive stag Jan 29, 2018, 10:23 PM

#

Well I'm not trying to chew you out for it. I suppose perhaps your timing just isn't very good for the suggestion, or the approach maybe. The way you made it sound with how you worded it. It sounded like Deathly never gives any announcements ever. And there are a lot of people here who don't pay attention to announcements and complain about things. If you had stated maybe: "I really like how you gave us an update on the cluster updates coming up, doing that with future clusters would be cool" or something along those lines. Instead of stating that they should announce cluster updates in the way you had, which made it sound like you were implying they never do. You might have gotten a different response then you did.

#

And it sounded like deathly hadn't given us an update at all either the way you had stated it.

#

I agree with your suggestion. It's a good one. And it would make it easier on everyone in some instances, even deathly so he didn't have to take his focus away from what he's doing to tell everyone. I just don't know how easily it'd be implimented. Cause what could seem like a simple one time patch fix could lead to cluster updates depending on what's happening and deathly may not know that a cluster of updates are going to be needed until it's already to late.

primal prawn Jan 29, 2018, 10:30 PM

#

I think they could announce their initial update and problems occur with it, they just announce that a potential cluster. That way people can keep it in mind that they are updating and that a cluster might happen.

cursive stag Jan 29, 2018, 10:33 PM

#

Yeah that could be a good way to go about it as well. Maybe he'll start doing that. I'm glad that he gave us a more detailed update this recent announcement then it has been in the past just so we are aware of what's going on.

#

On dev branch saving on log in hasn't worked for a little while already so I was already used to it because I've just stayed on dev branch since it takes so long for my computer to switch. I think game play will be so much better when he does get the database stuff done, at least in terms of grouping cause I think that's part of it. I'm hoping that dino groups get to stay as well past log out when he's done. For people who want to do packs or herds.

The raptors need a serious redo. Raptors, for one, never bit and latched. They raced around and slashed with their hand claws and killing claws. And they can't even pounce things that are bigger than them it seems.

Pouncing isn't finished, also to improve youre suggestion it would be cool if you could provide footage of raptors slashing prey so the devs can make it look good

I think it’d be neat to have a physical progression system for your Dino, meaning as you grow you can put points into different stats for your dinosaur.

Examples being: overall speed that would make your dinosaur faster.
Mass: making you hit harder, take less damage from being hit, and giving more health.
Resilience: making you regain stamina, health, and heal broken legs faster.

There could also be a perk sub-system for each stat “tree”, like making a perk that makes your ambush faster than normal (ambush would increase relative to your normal run speed and this perk would give extra speed to that ambush)
Possibly a perk for the mass “tree” decreasing the chance of breaking your leg from an attack like a Maia headbutt or Rex bite, a perk for the resilience “tree” that makes you heal broken bones faster, or you could choose to make your bleed heal faster instead. This would allow you to be different from most other Dino’s of your species, and it would allow you to adapt to your environment, example: if you are an allo with a lot of smaller, faster prey, then you may want to upgrade your speed “tree” for a more successful dino life, or in an environment with larger, stronger prey you may want to upgrade your mass to be able to fight your prey easier and with better chance of success or your resilience allowing you to survive a fight better. Either way I think this feature allows for more diversified dinosaurs and it makes the game less of a “oh no an allo, good thing I’m a Maia and it DEFINITELY can’t run faster than me without ambush” type of game and makes it more like the real world with creatures that aren’t exactly the same as the rest of its species.

an alternative could be individual variation

#

stats have a sort of "range" that they can fall into, and each varies from individual to individual

ancient plover Jan 30, 2018, 11:17 AM

#

an alternative could be to pick a different dinosaur

gritty flame Jan 30, 2018, 11:17 AM

#

shh

red charm Jan 30, 2018, 11:17 AM

#

Yeah like some Dino’s could naturally have better potential for speed than others

#

I just thought this might make it less of a stat game

ancient plover Jan 30, 2018, 11:19 AM

#

idk man if you want to be a fast carnivore you should pick a fast carnivore, not pick a slow carnivore and then want to "upgrade" it

red charm Jan 30, 2018, 11:19 AM

#

Like how dondi said desert maps aren’t good because it becomes a stat game

ancient plover Jan 30, 2018, 11:19 AM

#

theres lots of playable content to choose from

red charm Jan 30, 2018, 11:19 AM

#

Just a thought

ancient plover Jan 30, 2018, 11:20 AM

#

people should be able to look at a t rex and say "okay this dinosaur is this fast and this tanky with these stats" instead of it being a gamble

#

I understand what you are getting at, but I don't think it's wise at least for dinosaurs

red charm Jan 30, 2018, 11:21 AM

#

And it wouldn’t be something crazy either, like an allo would never be able to face tank an Alberto, just enough to be better at some things than the next guy as your dino

ancient plover Jan 30, 2018, 11:21 AM

#

humans have the choice of weapons and tools that are at their disposal to tailor their gameplay

#

and we have strains too

#

run of the mill dinos should stay normalized though imo

red charm Jan 30, 2018, 11:22 AM

#

Yeah it would be a very small change

#

Just enough to be better than some others of your species

ancient plover Jan 30, 2018, 11:23 AM

#

then that brings up the question of whether or not it is worth it

red charm Jan 30, 2018, 11:23 AM

#

True

ancient plover Jan 30, 2018, 11:23 AM

#

if it's such a miniscule chang it might not be worth dedicating the time into making it, at least from a dev perspective

#

too much meta-gaming, too much stuff to monitor and balance

red charm Jan 30, 2018, 11:24 AM

#

Yeah I get that, the devs got a lot on their plate and have such a small team

#

Maybe in the future when they’re polishing the game

little cliff Jan 30, 2018, 11:24 AM

#

Or better suited for a mod

ancient plover Jan 30, 2018, 11:24 AM

#

^

red charm Jan 30, 2018, 11:24 AM

#

True

little cliff Jan 30, 2018, 11:28 AM

#

Overall it's a cool idea, not every human is as fast or as strong as the next for an example but all in all there would have to be a baseline which could not be altered leaving the rest to the player to decide. Nice concept to throw in the unknown but at the current time maybe better for a mod to do instead of the base game.

red charm Jan 30, 2018, 11:29 AM

#

Yeah I just thought I’d throw the idea out there (as if the devs haven’t thought of it already or something similar)

little cliff Jan 30, 2018, 11:31 AM

#

Don't get me wrong I like it as far as making the dino "your" dino...

red charm Jan 30, 2018, 11:33 AM

#

Yeah I didn’t expect them to put it in obviously with all they have on their plate already, it’d be a little weird to throw in a new random mechanic in the middle of trying to make your game stable lol

safe gyro Jan 30, 2018, 2:21 PM

i saw a model of an allosaurus and i thought this would be a great model for the isle's allo:
https://www.amazon.de/Papo-55016-Allosaurus-Spielfigur/dp/B0014YPEI4/ref=sr_1_139?srs=3625438031&ie=UTF8&qid=1517321894&sr=8-139

low saffron Jan 30, 2018, 3:17 PM

#

Honestly Rusty, I really like the idea! Having it be a bit more of a gamble would be fun and interesting, versus a "I know the stats, 2 bites I'm dead" kinda deal. This adds more fear and unknowing. Granted, it's all be within the limits of the animal and how many points you get (if there's a point system for the stats). So an allo could never be as fast as a galli, or maybe one galli has traded out HP and Stamina for all sped- but it means he has to be smart with that speed. Or a rex, that has less HP but traded it off for better healing and slightly better damage. You get what I'm saying

sacred haven Jan 30, 2018, 3:39 PM

#

Well, taking that idea, which would be abusable and have standardised builds for each dino if such a thing were implemented; what if it was reactionary? If you get bled a lot you gain bleed resistances, and if you get broken bones a lot you gain resistances to that. It would be a good reward system for actually surviving otherwise dangerous situations. And there could be physical signs of your skills, like for bleed survivors theyd be all scarred up, and bone break survivors might have some very mild armor plating of sorts.

waxen vessel Jan 30, 2018, 5:32 PM

@safe gyro
Current allo kinda looks like this already

warped jacinth Jan 30, 2018, 5:34 PM

the old model looked like that and it was replaced

for good reason

Oh but larger Creatures have to grow longer right?

reef shore Jan 30, 2018, 7:42 PM

yup

willow meteor Jan 30, 2018, 7:42 PM

#

Probably

#

it’s been said that it’ll take more or less the same amount of time to be an adult as prog

#

But you won’t have to start from a velo if you die

raven jackal Jan 30, 2018, 7:43 PM

#

And what is with Velociraptors and Austros etc.?

reef shore Jan 30, 2018, 7:43 PM

#

you choose a dinosaur, survive till adulthood, and earn a token

willow meteor Jan 30, 2018, 7:43 PM

#

basically

reef shore Jan 30, 2018, 7:43 PM

#

then use said token to purchase another of the playable* species

raven jackal Jan 30, 2018, 7:44 PM

#

Kinda brings diversity with growth in this. great

karmic ledge Jan 30, 2018, 11:49 PM

#

will species be unlocked forever once you "buy" them?

willow meteor Jan 30, 2018, 11:59 PM

#

Possibly

#

a few different options were talked about there, you might unlock em forever or you might have to spend tokens to get them back

#

we don’t know just yet

violet hatch Jan 31, 2018, 12:01 AM

#

If you only get a token for completing a dinosaur for the first time it wouldn't work at all to have to spend another token to get the same dinosaur back. At that point it literally becomes the thing survival was supposed to get rid of.

willow meteor Jan 31, 2018, 12:08 AM

#

I guess

#

Could be that rex costs 5 tokens where Carno costs 3 and you only have 4

#

Wouldn’t be starting all the way from the bottom but provides incentive for “well I can just come back as a juvenile if I die so whatever”

#

So in that case you could suck it up and be a Carno or play as something small and earn that one final token

violet hatch Jan 31, 2018, 12:13 AM

#

Once again turning in the direction of what makes people camp and not play the game in progression. One of the main benefits of survival is that you get to play the dinosaur you want and not being forced to play something shit which leads to people afking and not playing since it's not fun.

It'd be so much worse in survival and so shit if what you said was the case. If you want to get that final token you'd only have to play 8 hours of an Austro just so you can actually have fun. And if you already got your tokens for completing the small ones (that get to adulthood faster) then you're fucked, be prepared to play even longer as something bigger to get that last token.

native totem Jan 31, 2018, 12:20 AM

#

They're still going with the token system? Thought that was scraped

willow meteor Jan 31, 2018, 12:36 AM

#

People are going to sit and afk in a bush anyway

#

No one is going to want to die as a juvie rex with 3 hours put into it

#

bush hiding isn’t going to go away, the bitchin that “I spent 10 hours getting to rex then died” is going to hopefully die down

#

though it could turn into “i spent 10 hours growing to adult rex then died”

violet hatch Jan 31, 2018, 12:40 AM

#

But at least then they can pick up as another Rex and not have to play 5 tokens worth of 8 hour animals to spawn in as a juvie that takes another 8+ hours to grow. If the idea you stated was implemented it would just be prog but with timers much much longer, which i'm sure no one wants.

willow meteor Jan 31, 2018, 12:41 AM

#

I mean it’s still going to take basically as long to become an adult

#

I can see people bitching about having to grow and then dying to start over

#

tl;dr people will bitch no matter what

delicate dagger Jan 31, 2018, 12:45 AM

#

@native totem Why did you think it was scrapped?

vague trench Jan 31, 2018, 1:48 AM

#

Dondi said they have a better way than tokens

#

I'm pretty sure, could be wrong

solid gale Jan 31, 2018, 4:30 AM

#

Sitting in a bush afk might also be a bit difficult if the hunger and thirst you have at juvie carries over to sub adulthood. I mean, it's great and all if you have enough to never have to eat into the next stage, but you're just screwing yourself over.

What if for the Spinos threaten roar. It dropped to all 4’s and roared. Similar to what the indom did in Jurassic world when it broke into the aviary

gritty flame Jan 31, 2018, 5:29 AM

#

except theropods could not support their body with their arms

crude topaz Jan 31, 2018, 6:17 AM

#

Except this game is fiction

gritty flame Jan 31, 2018, 6:19 AM

#

except the game is describedly "realism-based" by the dude who is making it???

crude topaz Jan 31, 2018, 6:20 AM

#

But it's still a fictional game, The Spino wouldn't be using its arms for support i'd imagine, itd just be putting them on the floor

#

I wasn't trying to be rude btw, Sorry if I came across that way

#

Just read my comment out loud lol

willow meteor Jan 31, 2018, 1:22 PM

#

Spino would break its hands tho

#

Dino hands aren’t turned the way they are in JP, if you look all the models have their hands turned in facing each other

dusky hamlet Jan 31, 2018, 1:23 PM

#

It uses its hands for support during the eating animation so I don't see why not

willow meteor Jan 31, 2018, 1:23 PM

#

does it? I haven’t played spino in a while

dusky hamlet Jan 31, 2018, 1:23 PM

#

If not for normal spino then it would fit well with hypo spino

willow meteor Jan 31, 2018, 1:23 PM

#

that I can agree with

warped jacinth Jan 31, 2018, 1:26 PM

#

Normal spoon does very briefly use its knuckles for support when its eating, but when it does it doesnt look like its putting much if any weight on its hands

willow meteor Jan 31, 2018, 1:26 PM

#

just took a look at a vid with spino’s eating loop

#

Yeah what scarlet said

#

it’s very brief and there’s no real weight on it

warped jacinth Jan 31, 2018, 1:29 PM

#

If you want a unique spino 3 roar I would say do something like the hypo spino/utah has, with it moving its claws in a threatening way

native totem Jan 31, 2018, 3:44 PM

#

@delicate dagger It was being discussed a whole bunch then suddenly not a peep. Only an assumption.

rare hedge Jan 31, 2018, 3:47 PM

There isn't a whole lot else to say about it than what already has been tbh

blissful plume Jan 31, 2018, 4:28 PM

#

Give aquatic dinosaurs the ability to rest underwater. While doing so your oxygen is depleted more slowly and so you can stay underwater for longer. Makes sense that a lower heart rate would consume less oxygen. Would be great for underwater ambush predators.

willow meteor Jan 31, 2018, 4:31 PM

#

You’d have the standing up animation tho

#

I guess you could make it a hybrid of resting and crouching

cursive stag Jan 31, 2018, 7:21 PM

#

Dunno how feasible it is, but making it so that for the non-aquatic dinos when crossing water they have to stay along the top, head above water and their stamina depletes over time before they get to tired and sink/drown. (Right now they still sink a bit to where heads are below the surface) And allow the aquatic types the ability to move freely and faster in the water, dive down, have what RedDevil explained with the slow oxygen depletion and slower stamina depletion in the water instead of rest ability. It would help add a distinguishing factor between the aquatic and non aquatic I think. Obviously Humans would move freely in the water as well, but most animals that do not spend a lot of their time in the water tend to always keep their heads above water when swimming in it.

blissful plume Jan 31, 2018, 9:15 PM

#

Perhaps a resting animation isn’t even needed. Perhaps lying still underwater simply causes oxygen to deplete more slowly than when you are moving. Different speeds can cause different depletion rates. The faster you move, the faster your oxygen depletes.

cursive stag Jan 31, 2018, 10:53 PM

#

That would make more sense. Like croc's or alligators who chill at the surface of the water and watch things as they float there.

ancient plover Feb 1, 2018, 6:08 AM

#

I don't think they will be adding many things to progression, they seem pretty focused on survival

abstract cave Feb 1, 2018, 8:38 AM

Progression is what you'd call a dead cause.

marble swift Feb 1, 2018, 12:12 PM

The only thing that’s going to be added to progression is a bullet in its head.

the new models arnt even in progression

#

not that i care i prefer survival loads more

#

It would be cool if progression got the new models just to keep it spiffy i guess

whole gate Feb 1, 2018, 4:19 PM

#

aslong survival is under construction it would be nice to have the new models on progression too

woeful kindle Feb 1, 2018, 4:20 PM

#

I totally agree ^

grand dawn Feb 1, 2018, 4:47 PM

#

it would be cool to keep progression in the final game for the servers that use it for RolePlaying. Even it it doesn't exist anymore on official servers and have new upgrade, juste a stable gamemode that private servers can choose

warped jacinth Feb 1, 2018, 4:47 PM

#

People can mod progression back if they so choose

grand dawn Feb 1, 2018, 4:50 PM

#

i hope so

frosty spade Feb 1, 2018, 4:55 PM

#

I think progression will be good for Dino only/realism servers, but survival will be more based for Dino and human servers

grand dawn Feb 1, 2018, 5:01 PM

basicaly why i suggest to keep it and let servers do what they wants

#

Is it ok to post a link to a google doc for a suggestion that's detailed out and to large for a post here?

#

Here is my suggestion on a training/leveling system with tamed dinos. I don't know what the actual plan is right now. All I know is that taming dinos is planned and player dinos can be tamed as well. So yeah. Here's an idea I came up with. Tried to make it relatively balanced. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1hQNrjxzJEvqFZQYdlGrwoxkcQ8dguqYHpaSM3G5SLqI/edit?usp=sharing

Google Docs

Isle Ideas

Tamed dino possibilities To note when referencing ‘Wild’ or ‘Tamed’ it is including both Player and AI that fall under that category. Human players have the ability to train their dinos for small buff benefits in terms of hunting and/or gathering depending on the dino and training level. Human...

ancient plover Feb 2, 2018, 5:06 AM

#

Too much like ARK :/

abstract cave Feb 2, 2018, 5:08 AM

#

Not a bad idea, but it just wouldn't work for this game.

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:09 AM

#

How is that like ark? I mean I play ark. Dinos just automatically have abilities and sure you level up specific stats. This you don't have control over any sort of stats. It's just a command buff that's temporary and has a cool down

ancient plover Feb 2, 2018, 5:11 AM

#

Levels and such

#

Buffs

#

Gimmicky game mechanics

Basically statistics are too gamey/ dont fit into a realistic type game

candid salmon Feb 2, 2018, 5:12 AM

#

^

rare hedge Feb 2, 2018, 5:13 AM

#

Not really in favor of a trained dinosaur being statistically superior on its own. Maybe if some type of armor were implemented for this instead, and you tied their max armor "level" to how tame they were.

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:14 AM

#

Well I can see that. Armor could be a better fill in. The training thing I saw as a way to 'progress' instead of 'instant' benefit with a tamed dino. And the same goes for player dinos. What's the benefit of not working with humans at that point then? I mean if we substituted armor

rare hedge Feb 2, 2018, 5:14 AM

#

I think I'd also rather a tamed dinosaur lose hunger more slowly (due to higher nutritional value in food or something) and then have them regain health more slowly on their own as the trade-off

ancient plover Feb 2, 2018, 5:15 AM

#

Well also keep in mind your dinos wont be tame, they will be enslaved

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:15 AM

#

Why would they heal slower though, I mean better nutritional food would mean healthier animal

#

Yeah but so far that doesn't seem to be a down side to that

ancient plover Feb 2, 2018, 5:16 AM

#

Um...

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:16 AM

#

just cause you call it enslaved, people still are going to work together

ancient plover Feb 2, 2018, 5:16 AM

#

The fact that the dinosaur camn kick you off at any time?

#

And eat you?

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:16 AM

#

I'm talking about player dinos

ancient plover Feb 2, 2018, 5:16 AM

#

And the bigger the animal the greater the benefit but also increased danger

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:16 AM

#

I distinctly remember being told players could be tamed as well

ancient plover Feb 2, 2018, 5:16 AM

#

Same applys to player dinosaurs, but thats more of a player playstyle you wont be able to alter.

#

You wont be able to force people into acting a certain way

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:17 AM

#

that's a downside in human play on the one hand, but no downside when two people can communicate outside of the game and play together

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:17 AM

#

Your point is that it wouldn't have a disadvantage because players would just team up, but if you are teaming up then what would be the point of pinning them down and forcing them into submission?

#

It's not like I would be trying to tame my friend if I was teaming with them

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:18 AM

#

I'm just looking at it from the perspective of how bad it gets with mixed herds and the like.

ancient plover Feb 2, 2018, 5:18 AM

#

Thats something unavoidable that people would just have to accept unless there is some mechanic to prevent that

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:18 AM

#

Now you have a player dino rex with a tribal

#

no disadvantage

rare hedge Feb 2, 2018, 5:18 AM

#

There wouldn't be a "realistic" reason for slower healing, but if the dinosaur player is going to gain the benefit of human protection/cooperation then the trade-off should be that they have to commit a certain amount of dependency toward them. If they heal slower they can rely on the human to use items to take care of their health

ancient plover Feb 2, 2018, 5:18 AM

#

Thats also why mercs will exist shy

#

Big groups of dinos will be very obvious

#

Firearms deal with big stuff pretty well

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:19 AM

#

Yeah but the same goes with mercs lol

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:19 AM

#

Only takes 1 merc to fuck it all up

ancient plover Feb 2, 2018, 5:19 AM

#

There will be other mercs to deal with those mercs and their dinosaurs

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:20 AM

#

If the rex tries to act without caution because they have a merc buddy, they are just going to get shot and killed on the spot

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:20 AM

#

I just see dinos always pairing with humans unless there's an actual advantage to no to. That's all. shrugs

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:20 AM

#

Only smart rexes will survive, I doubt smart rexes will team up with a merc

#

Only thing I can see is the merc killing things for the rex

#

but then things that the rex won't be able to protect the merc well against small and quick things like utahs, cannibals, etc. and the human will be a meal

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:22 AM

#

As well as what benefit will there ever be to taming AI dinos if things are so easy for players to pair up between dino and tribal?

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:22 AM

#

I could see it being a pretty annoying thing though, but I doubt a bond like that would be able to last long

#

I doubt a merc or tribal are going to want to trust a dinosaur if they have a bunch of rare gear and can just get chomped in 1 bite

#

and vice versa

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:23 AM

#

AI dino's can turn on them as well though

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:23 AM

#

Good

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:23 AM

#

That's supposed to be part of the danger

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:23 AM

#

that means they will trust eachotehr less

#

because they won't know who is AI and who isn't

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:23 AM

#

But see that's the thing, players on the other hand you can actually have that trust when you play with a buddy

#

General joe schmo who doesn't know about discord sure, but those who do...

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:24 AM

#

Unless you are playing with a friend then I doubt there will be many merc / dino team-ups (unless the dinosaurs are forcefully tamed by a tribe) when the game is more fleshed out

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:24 AM

#

Thats why I was thinking an actual in game system that adjust stats actually helps address that

candid salmon Feb 2, 2018, 5:24 AM

#

Hopefully player dinos that are enslaved can still drive unless willed to turn elsewhere.

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:25 AM

#

Even if you get people who team up outside in a discord to do things. having a system like that makes them still have to work, and deal with challenges before they have any real perks with being teamed up

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:25 AM

#

I imagine it working like them having free will, and then getting forced or hurt and heavily incentivised to turn when the person riding them uses the reins

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:26 AM

#

well from my understanding mercs are supposed to be able to befriend dinos, while tribals enslave them.

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:26 AM

#

Not really sure about the merc thing anymore

#

but taming for tribals is confirmed

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:27 AM

#

either way, realistically, in terms of a human working with an animal training is a requirement to get anything done. To have it where there is no training system at all would be unrealistic

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:27 AM

#

No need to train when you can force them

whether that training is with positive or negative reinforcement. it's still training.

#

You beat a dino until it does what you want, that's still training

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:27 AM

#

They will probably be incentivised to not try and kill their tamers in some way

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:28 AM

#

I just wish there was a way to know what the actual system is planned to be. I'm really curious.

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:29 AM

#

I imagine being a tamed dinosaur goes something like this: Play along so you don't get crippled or killed (and lose all your progress) by them, wait for an opportunity to kill them or get away if they mess something up

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:29 AM

#

I plan to play a dino personally. My hubby wants to go cannibal by the end of all things, so there wont be pairing up for me with humanoids. I wanna go full on wild. But it was a system that had come to mind while I was mulling over in my head other things.

#

I suppose that could be the case. People get all uptight about dying in the game. It wouldn't matter to me honestly. It doesn't bother me to have to start over XD

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:31 AM

#

Yeah, but if you are an adult Rex that took 8 hours of hard work to grow into, I think you would rather play along rather than get destroyed by a tribe full of bows and arrows

#

They basically give you a really shitty second chance to live

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:32 AM

#

Oh rex is going to take longer then that by the end of it all isn't it? It makes sense though. I'm just wondering outside of that, for those who want to work together, what will be the downside for them. Unless they make it so that they actually have to fight with the human player for control of there dino. That I think would be a good deturant.

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:34 AM

#

I personally don't think it would be too worth it to enslave a dinosaur

#

at most it will be fun to do

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:34 AM

#

I'm really excited for when they get more of the gaming elements they plan on into the game. Does anyone know if there's any indepth plans for herbivores and their diets? Or is it very simplified to where they only eat one specific plant and that is that?

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:35 AM

#

Because humans can give away their positions easily, and the dinosaur might not be around when the slaughter happens

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:35 AM

#

I'm curious to how they plan to do the chats for humans in terms of hearing them in the environment

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:35 AM

#

I remember that they had planned diets where only certain biomes had the plants that they could eat, but I'm not sure if that is still planned

#

I would love to have VC

#

at least for mercs

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:36 AM

#

Well I mean not even VC but the ingame text chat

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:36 AM

#

and then a walky-talky that could be used to VC over long distances

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:36 AM

#

As a dino when you chat, your dino calls

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:36 AM

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:36 AM

#

I really hope they do something for humans. It'd be somewhat lame if they didn't.

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:37 AM

#

Maybe it will be keyword based with a voice-over? Like if you say lol in your message then your character will laugh

#

among other common keywords and things

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:37 AM

#

lol. Could be them saying the word 'food' every time they say something. >.>

#

The emote stuff could be interesting though. But they'd need a generalized sound for just regular speech

#

Maybe they can say 'hummina hummina hummina'

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:39 AM

#

if anything it will be speech but you won't be able to tell what they are saying

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:39 AM

#

That's what I'm hoping.

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:39 AM

#

like if they are mumbling or too far away to decipher the words

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:40 AM

#

That would be the best way to go about it

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:40 AM

#

whispers could work as well

#

but then talking would have to have a shorter range or else it would be pretty weird

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:41 AM

#

Yeah it would.

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:42 AM

#

I hope they have VC though

#

that would just make sense

#

then having a walky-talky item for long distance talking

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:42 AM

#

One thing I wanna do, if it isn't in the game, is make a mod that enables herbivores to be able to eat any of the plants. but if they don't eat what they are actually supposed to, it'll have detrimental effects. It would make sense.

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:42 AM

#

and could probably make it work with chat as well

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:43 AM

#

I just hope if they do the vc, they make it translate into nonsensical stuff for those who play dinos.

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:43 AM

#

They could, but I don't think it would be too needed

#

would make sense, but that's just extra work so meh

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:44 AM

#

Humans are in a group all together in the dead of night. They know they have dinos surrounding them. They talk to plan their defense. dinos hear and understand what they're planning. dead humans

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:44 AM

#

Then again they could just have the game automatically tamper with the voice to make it incomprehensible

#

but keeping the same volume / voice and everything

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:45 AM

#

Gives them to big of an advantage if dinos can understand the vc. Yeah. Something like that would be best. So people can't understand them but you get the same effect as you do when dinos communicate

brave girder Feb 2, 2018, 5:45 AM

#

mhmm

#

and dinosaurs could tell which human is who by their voice even if they can't tell what they are saying

cursive stag Feb 2, 2018, 5:45 AM

#

Which would be interesting as well

blissful plume Feb 2, 2018, 7:25 PM

#

Placeable trail cameras might come in handy for mercenaries. Allow them to see animals that pass by via hand held device. Or maybe even just a motion sensor that causes the handheld device to beep when something passes. He bigger the creature the louder it beeps. Velos and tacos would probably barely register if at all.

#

Imagine the terror when the beeps go super crazy as a hypo passes by.

abstract cave Feb 2, 2018, 8:17 PM

#

Having camera systems in a human base would be interesting. If I do remember correctly dondi did say he was going to put something in on the isle website so people could watch certain parts of the map, though that is quite a bit different.

sick wigeon Feb 2, 2018, 8:30 PM

#

Would be cool if added in a human class as researchers. Taking samples and such. Taking photos like statement above. A other thing I'd love to see is dragging, when something is dead depending on size of player Vs dead dino/human depends how effective drag is. So help Dino drags kills or remains into a bush to eat concealed.

You guys were talking about the tamed Dino’s earlier.
What if they had it were the tribals point in the direction they want the Dino to go in? That way the tamed dino still has some sort of control as well

ancient plover Feb 3, 2018, 12:26 AM

#

That's called submission

#

IIRC the tribals will have bone hooks to lock onto dinosaurs that would direct said dinosaur, player or AI, into a direction.

#

If the dinosaur player refused, the human player would hurt them in a way that I can't remember.

marble swift Feb 3, 2018, 1:43 AM

#

From what I can remember, the tribal player would keep tugging the dinosaur in a general direction with the bone bola thing, causing minor damage to it in the progress until they comply

i have this totally 100% unique and never thought of idea before that you have totally never heard about - cameo for the tribals. let them grab foliage, flowers and shit to attach to themselves as a garb / suit or whatever (totally not like what was meant to be in the stomping land) imagine putting together a yellow flower cameo. lying down in a patch of them and having a lil taco come over - for you to stand up and smack it in the face then have it for dinner.

ancient plover Feb 4, 2018, 12:45 AM

#

No that's not how legacy works I don't think

cursive stag Feb 4, 2018, 12:46 AM

#

I don't think it's possible to do that.

native totem Feb 4, 2018, 12:49 AM

#

With some patch services you can install based on a past patch. I.e if current release is 5.0 and a stable is 3.0, the versioning would let you move to say 4.1. Of course with each patch comes with new issues so that may not be possible if there was never a patch that was stable enough.

cursive stag Feb 4, 2018, 12:50 AM

#

You have to realize the new patches is using a different system setup then what legacy is on

#

Including a new database system they've been working on. That's not like 'this is all in this folder here and can be seperated from the rest of the game' it's, all the newer stuff is integrated through out the newer system type deal.

native totem Feb 4, 2018, 12:52 AM

I wasn't suggesting the most recent patches to be made legacy. But now this is more discussion than suggestion so I'll just leave it at that.

Something I’ve noticed with the introduction of strains is that there’s no reason for humans (or dinosaurs, too, I reckon, but they aren’t the focus here) to kill them other than self-defense. Before you say anything, yes, know trying to kill an attacking strain, especially in the case of a hypo, would be entirely useless, but just hear me out. My idea is this: strains, be them hypo, tisso, or neuro, can drop special items specific to those strains (or perhaps species specific as well, though that might be a bit of work) that can be used to craft certain armor sets, certain types of weaponry, or something else entirely.

"Continue the raid upon the baby hypo spinos. Carve their bodies until one of you get its rare drop"

crude topaz Feb 6, 2018, 7:04 AM

#

This went from more of a bad idea to just a little tiny thing that'd be cute to have (Not important in the slightest but just a fun thing you could do to pass time) having tribals passively tame very small herbivore AI and possibly giving them small perks to use them, You'd just have to gain their trust and feed them but then they'd follow you around [Far Cry Primal sorta thing] But they wouldn't want to fight anything and run from danger, with things like Orodromeus being able to perch on your shoulder and alert for danger in a smaller radius and being able to stay on your shoulder so you can stay with it at all times, Dryo could be like a better orodromeus but it has to be following you, and then something like Avaceratops being (Possibly) ridable, or maybe assisting in combat though it probably wouldn't do much

jade vale Feb 6, 2018, 7:16 AM

#

Stop playing.... Ark?

#

I mean I kind of like that suggestion, but it’d be kind of unfair if you spend 15 mins creeping up on some tribals as an already pretty large and easy to spot dino and then some AI pipsqueak gave away your position and you get shot 35 times in the face even though you played the way you’re supposed to.....

#

Unless you got into making them only alert you of AI danger, but that seems pretty in depth for something that wouldn’t be much of a contribution gameplay wise... would be a pretty cool mod though

stable parcel Feb 6, 2018, 11:29 PM

#

Idk if it’s ever been suggested but hey I was thinking it would be cool if dinos could have their jaws get broken basically similar to how they can break legs. It would add an interesting dynamic to survival and combat if their jaw was rendered useless for a particular period of time. During this time they wouldn’t be able to drink, eat, or attack with their mouth.

rare hedge Feb 6, 2018, 11:30 PM

#

I don't see how that would have a positive impact on gameplay

narrow needle Feb 6, 2018, 11:30 PM

#

Not having the ability to eat or drink is a bit too much

#

If your hunting for food, kill the dinosaur, but break your jaw, you're screwed even though you won

stable parcel Feb 6, 2018, 11:31 PM

#

Just to add to the challenge of course ^^ (And it would be temporary like the leg break)

rare hedge Feb 6, 2018, 11:35 PM

#

What you describe is punishing but not challenging. Leg breaks are inconvenient but it doesn't stop you from actually playing the game, which is what this suggestion would do.

dull tiger Feb 7, 2018, 4:49 AM

#

That depends on HOW you would break your jaw though

blissful plume Feb 7, 2018, 2:15 PM

#

I am all for the jaw break idea. But rather than doing no damage perhaps it can do reduced damage. I’m pretty sure a rex could still crush a taco with a broken jaw.

#

And perhaps limit it to just not being able to eat. You don’t need to chew water.

marble swift Feb 7, 2018, 2:37 PM

#

Adding on to Red Devil’s thing: Maybe the more you move said jaw (like biting, eating, etc) it takes it longer to heal. So if you have to, it’s still an option. It just takes longer for said jaw to heal.

blissful plume Feb 7, 2018, 2:48 PM

#

Don’t you mean the more you move it? Typically you want a bone to sit still to allow it to heal.

marble swift Feb 7, 2018, 2:54 PM

#

Yeah that what I meant

#

Sorry, lemme fix that

brave girder Feb 7, 2018, 2:57 PM

#

Tbh that jaw breaking would be better if it was simply a damage debuff

#

Could just be regarded as broken teeth

#

I think the game could benefit from having more areas of possible breaking depending on the dinosaur

#

And grabbing could be used to grab and break, hurt, or tear specific parts

#

For example: A T.rex grabbing a Triceratops horn and breaking it off, causing a debuff to the trike's damage for a while (similar length to a broken leg)

#

Would open up more skilled play, and if multiple people grabbing onto animals and being able to hold or pin other dinosaurs down on a certain part, it would open up better skilled pack based combat

#

Could help with the problem plaguing the game with turning radius and things

#

Alt turn or good turning would be feasible and protect against ass biting but skilled players and coordinated packs could still easily get the upper hand

past wasp Feb 7, 2018, 5:16 PM

#

Is there a way to change quality in replays? If not that's my suggestion it'd be nice for screenie purposes. I won't get butthurt if nah.

frigid vapor Feb 8, 2018, 9:44 PM

#

I'd really love to see varied hitboxes, if it's possible to do so. As well as different "types" of damage doing more damage to certain areas, like an anky's crushing swipe doing critical damage to the head or a stego's thagomizer being lethal if struck in the throat/chest. I feel like it would provide way more immersive combat, as well as open new doors to some pretty cool possibilities for other types of attacks. Combat right now is basically who has the better turn radius for assriding (or, for the cheaper means, who can alt-turn better) which really isn't too fun. Having to take into account more things when you go in to attack something and having to be more prepared would honestly make it way more immersive. Make it so you actually have to aim at the right spots to get a bonebreak, rather than just biting at the tail. That would finally bring skill to the table for BB, rather than just straight RNG.
I know this is a pretty massive task to make everything work cohesively, but I feel like the benefit and added contemplation it would force people to take before going in to fight something would make things so much more fun.

#

That, or some type of collision.

#

Would also be really neat to see if it was possible to tie collision into damage/bonebreak for some creatures.

rare hedge Feb 8, 2018, 10:10 PM

#

Locational damage is planned, as is collision and trample damage

#

Collision existed in a basic state at one point but it was causing issues ("black hole shantu" in particular) so it had to be removed until it could be refined

Well I was thinking that Tribals could make banners, either to mark the tribe's territory, or to mark the territory of large predators. Like let's say there's a group of allosaurs somewhere and they like to stay there, a tribal can place a banner with a crude tribal painting of an Allosaurus nearby as warning. Or maybe the tribe wants to let others know how big their turf is, they can dot around some banners with that tribe's sigil

prisma crag Feb 8, 2018, 11:30 PM

#

Unless there's already going to be Banners or something of the like

cursive stag Feb 9, 2018, 12:04 AM

#

Not sure if there will be, though tribals are supposed to have some manner of building, I think simplified but something where they can make shelters anywhere on the map while mercs are limited to restoring places alredy on the map. From what I heard. I would love it if dinos are able to mark territories. Hoping when scent is finally in that it's incorporated into it already.

prisma crag Feb 9, 2018, 12:05 AM

that would be a good addition

the main reason I made that suggestion is I made a banner of sorts yesterday and thought "if only this was in The Isle"

though that might sound sound selfish

Is it possible to lock a camera angle only to a certain degree so someone can't just sweep a 360 around them and see everything? I'm not talking first person, but just making it so you can only look, say... maybe 270 degrees around you with your body turned a certain way, and you'd have to turn your body if you wanted to check your blind spots. As, like, perhaps an option server owners can choose. I feel like this would allow for more chances for ambush by utilizing blind spots like other predators do and allow for a successful ambush to be more than sitting in a giant bush or dip in the ground lying in wait.

ancient plover Feb 9, 2018, 12:44 AM

I don't know if it can happen, but when you attack someone as a rex, if you hit towards the neck, it could grab the soon-to-be-snack, by the neck for a few seconds and then let go

#

Might be a good idea to have a steam news update from a dev, that tells the general public that may not be part of the discord the current status of the game and reassure them that the not saving progress and such are being worked on. I feel that the last update being from deathly, and with rumors that spread it would be a good idea to let the rest of the player base, as well as those who may be researching the game to see if it's worth purchasing/trying. Let people know that the game is still well in progress and being worked on even with the removal of deathly from the staff. Just a suggestion though obviously.

How about live dino dragging? I lost count of how many times I told pack members to back off or come back and they don't listen / don't speak that language / don't know how to use group channels... if I could just drag them around (at the cost of stamina and maybe very minor damage to them) it would be so much easier

cursive stag Feb 9, 2018, 7:02 PM

To mimic how some carnivores get a lot of their moisture content in their diets from their food? Yeah that would be nice. The same could be said for herbivores and plants. But if they do that it takes from the need for water some. But it would be nice if your starving and dying of thirst that eating would give you some small amount of moisture to help sustain you till you find water.

ancient plover Feb 9, 2018, 7:06 PM

#

my argument was mainly about nesting

#

as some of the caves and stuff would be great places to nest

#

but no way to get water to babies

cursive stag Feb 9, 2018, 7:08 PM

#

Ah nods Perhaps the solution should be more in puddles or some such in locations like that which only babies can make use of compared to the adults. So adjusting the map more then the core mechanics of the dinos. So then people still have to have a level of careful planning on where their nests are even in those areas.

mhm

#

idk i just think it would be cool for a pack of utahs to be holed upin a cave somewhere

#

and i always thought the little space under pride rock to be a sick place to nest but no water

cursive stag Feb 9, 2018, 7:09 PM

#

I plan to have a lot of caves good for nesting on the map I plan to make. So that's a cool idea I'll add to my personal list XD

Recreated Sounds of the Tyrannosaurus Rex! (Louder version)

If you can't hear, turn the volume all the way up! This is very low frequency infrasound. Max volume and/or headphones may be needed. It was hard to get soli...

Feel like a roar would be alot scarier than a low grumble

ivory flume Feb 11, 2018, 1:12 AM

#

Would be funsies to hear something deep-base around when it isn't aggro.

molten helm Feb 11, 2018, 8:35 AM

#

@willow horizon That low frequency sound would shake your very core, and get louder and more intense as it got closer.

blissful plume Feb 11, 2018, 4:34 PM

#

I can handle most horror movies no problem but that somehow sends a chill up my spine. I am all for that in the game.

ivory flume Feb 11, 2018, 6:17 PM

#

While it would shake your core... would get repetitive.

#

If that was all the sound it could make

#

~~much like the rex roars now~~

merry edge Feb 11, 2018, 8:29 PM

#

would it really fit? I mean almost all dinos ingame have loud roars, why would rex have just a low grumble?

ivory flume Feb 11, 2018, 8:29 PM

#

I'd like something to do baseboost. Just not sure about rex.

misty cedar Feb 11, 2018, 8:30 PM

#

thats not scary

#

tbh

echo bone Feb 11, 2018, 9:04 PM

#

I mean, it would be absolutely sick for neuro rex.

abstract cave Feb 11, 2018, 11:36 PM

#

That'd be better as part of a close range breathing sound effect.

if we ever add sleeping, i'll make it the tyrannosaur snore

cursive stag Feb 12, 2018, 1:06 AM

OOoooooo! Sleeping would be interesting and fun

ancient plover Feb 12, 2018, 1:08 AM

I want to hear that

I wanna have a button that i have to press to cycle my breathing otherwise i suffocate

I want it just so I can stop breathing

ancient plover Feb 12, 2018, 5:01 PM

But you can do that irl!!

abstract pelican Feb 12, 2018, 5:01 PM

Good point!

Brb gonna try that

Let's try and keep this channel relevant to genuine suggestions guys.

ancient plover Feb 12, 2018, 6:26 PM

make corpeses give water

edgy fiber Feb 12, 2018, 6:47 PM

#

clealry these are vrampries not dinosaurs

delicate dagger Feb 12, 2018, 6:51 PM

#

If you let corpses give water

#

if you already get thirst via blood in bodies

#

then why the water bodies

#

makes getting thirst so eazzyyy

rare hedge Feb 12, 2018, 7:16 PM

#

It's not an unreasonable idea. You just would get significantly less from bodies/plants

blissful plume Feb 12, 2018, 7:18 PM

#

Just enough to keep from dying of dehydration.

rare hedge Feb 12, 2018, 7:19 PM

#

Maybe not even that, I would say enough to prolong it. You still want to encourage the use of watering holes, but you don't want to be completely tethered by them, either.

blissful plume Feb 12, 2018, 7:22 PM

#

Perhaps some plants can hold rainwater from a recent storm. Some kind of exotic cup shaped flower or something.

#

Would be nice if rainfall actually meant something rather than just being for immersion’s sake.

hasty dawn Feb 12, 2018, 7:31 PM

#

Pretty sure corpses giving some water was talked about

cursive stag Feb 12, 2018, 9:24 PM

#

Perhaps have it so that young dinos get more water type benefit from corpses then adults do. Which would open up the options for people to have nests further from water sources for hatchlings and juvi's. But still requires adults to make the trips to get water for themselves. Once corpse dragging is in this concept would work a lot better as well. Another suggestion, as a temporary idea. Allow hatchlings/juvies to eat from the nest. Parents still have to come and put food in the nest, and of course eating from the nest would remove the food levels so would compete with adding eggs but it could be a good temporary solution until corpse dragging is in.

maybe the Therizino should be slower because on many servers ill be playing as a Utah and Allo and they always catch up and one shot me. i dont mind the one shotting i just think the speed is a bit much, especially after spending hours to get that far on Progression

cobalt fossil Feb 13, 2018, 12:14 AM

#

i wonder, is it planned to add more pounce possibility with little carni? like velo/herrera? :/

ancient plover Feb 13, 2018, 3:48 AM

#

No

#

Utah is the only dino who is going to have pouncr

#

Austro has it in prog atm tho

willow meteor Feb 13, 2018, 3:51 AM

#

velo and herrera aren't going to be playable in survival mode anyway

#

no point in giving them something no one will be able to use

frank cobalt Feb 13, 2018, 4:27 AM

#

Herrera wont be playable? When was that said and by whom?

willow meteor Feb 13, 2018, 4:29 AM

#

Don mentioned a few times Herrera is boring and generic

#

was a while ago tho

#

could've changed since then

frank cobalt Feb 13, 2018, 4:31 AM

#

Thats sad, I like Herrera. idk why, it is very generic.

ancient plover Feb 13, 2018, 5:24 AM

#

i just like herra because its movement is so much better then austro
